| 1 | Écoutez ceci, sacrificateurs ! Sois attentive, maison d'Israël ! Prête l'oreille, maison du roi ! Car c'est à vous que le jugement s'adresse, Parce que vous avez été un piège à Mitspa, Et un filet tendu sur le Thabor. | Hear ye this, O priests; and hearken, ye house of Israel; and give ye ear, O house of the king; for judgment is toward you, because ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor. | Hear this, O ye priests, and hearken, O house of Israel, and give ear, O house of the king; for unto you pertaineth the judgment; for ye have been a snare at Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor. |
| 2 | Par leurs sacrifices, les infidèles s'enfoncent dans le crime, Mais j'aurai des châtiments pour eux tous. | And the revolters are profound to make slaughter, though I have been a rebuker of them all. | And the revolters are gone deep in making slaughter; but I am a rebuker of them all. |
| 3 | Je connais Éphraïm, Et Israël ne m'est point caché ; Car maintenant, Éphraïm, tu t'es prostitué, Et Israël s'est souillé. | I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now, O Ephraim, thou committest whoredom, and Israel is defiled. | I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me; for now, O Ephraim, thou hast played the harlot, Israel is defiled. |
| 4 | Leurs oeuvres ne leur permettent pas de revenir à leur Dieu, Parce que l'esprit de prostitution est au milieu d'eux, Et parce qu'ils ne connaissent pas l'Éternel. | They will not frame their doings to turn unto their God: for the spirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they have not known the LORD. | Their doings will not suffer them to turn unto their God; for the spirit of whoredom is within them, and they know not Jehovah. |
| 5 | L'orgueil d'Israël témoigne contre lui ; Israël et Éphraïm tomberont par leur iniquité ; Avec eux aussi tombera Juda. | And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: therefore shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity: Judah also shall fall with them. | And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: therefore Israel and Ephraim shall stumble in their iniquity; Judah also shall stumble with them. |
| 6 | Ils iront avec leurs brebis et leurs boeufs chercher l'Éternel, Mais ils ne le trouveront point : Il s'est retiré du milieu d'eux. | They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek the LORD; but they shall not find him; he hath withdrawn himself from them. | They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek Jehovah; but they shall not find him: he hath withdrawn himself from them. |
| 7 | Ils ont été infidèles à l'Éternel, Car ils ont engendré des enfants illégitimes ; Maintenant un mois suffira pour les dévorer avec leurs biens. | They have dealt treacherously against the LORD: for they have begotten strange children: now shall a month devour them with their portions. | They have dealt treacherously against Jehovah; for they have borne strange children: now shall the new moon devour them with their fields. |
| 8 | Sonnez de la trompette à Guibea, Sonnez de la trompette à Rama ! Poussez des cris à Beth Aven ! Derrière toi, Benjamin ! | Blow ye the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah: cry aloud at Bethaven, after thee, O Benjamin. | Blow ye the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah: sound an alarm at Beth-aven; behind thee, O Benjamin. |
| 9 | Éphraïm sera dévasté au jour du châtiment ; J'annonce aux tribus d'Israël une chose certaine. | Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be. | Ephraim shall become a desolation in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be. |
| 10 | Les chefs de Juda sont comme ceux qui déplacent les bornes ; Je répandrai sur eux ma colère comme un torrent. | The princes of Judah were like them that remove the bound: therefore I will pour out my wrath upon them like water. | The princes of Judah are like them that remove the landmark: I will pour out my wrath upon them like water. |
| 11 | Éphraïm est opprimé, brisé par le jugement, Car il a suivi les préceptes qui lui plaisaient. | Ephraim is oppressed and broken in judgment, because he willingly walked after the commandment. | Ephraim is oppressed, he is crushed in judgment; because he was content to walk after [man`s] command. |
| 12 | Je serai comme une teigne pour Éphraïm, Comme une carie pour la maison de Juda. | Therefore will I be unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness. | Therefore am I unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness. |
| 13 | Éphraïm voit son mal, et Juda ses plaies ; Éphraïm se rend en Assyrie, et s'adresse au roi Jareb ; Mais ce roi ne pourra ni vous guérir, Ni porter remède à vos plaies. | When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah saw his wound, then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb: yet could he not heal you, nor cure you of your wound. | When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah [saw] his wound, then went Ephraim to Assyria, and sent to king Jareb: but he is not able to heal you, neither will he cure you of your wound. |
| 14 | Je serai comme un lion pour Éphraïm, Comme un lionceau pour la maison de Juda ; Moi, moi, je déchirerai, puis je m'en irai, J'emporterai, et nul n'enlèvera ma proie. | For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue him. | For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will carry off, and there shall be none to deliver. |
| 15 | Je m'en irai, je reviendrai dans ma demeure, Jusqu'à ce qu'ils s'avouent coupables et cherchent ma face. Quand ils seront dans la détresse, ils auront recours à moi. | I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early. | I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me earnestly. |
