1 Kings 1
1 And the king David he was old he had come in days and they covered him with clothes and not it was warm to him.
Le roi David était vieux, chargé de jours; on l’enveloppait de vêtements, sans qu’il en fût réchauffé.
2 And they said to him servants his let people seek for lord my the king a young woman a virgin and she will stand before the king and let her be of him a nurse and she will lie in bosom your and it will be warm to lord my the king.
Ses serviteurs lui dirent: "Que l’on cherche, pour mon seigneur le roi, une jeune fille vierge, qui se tiendra devant le roi, et aura soin de lui; elle reposera dans tes bras, et la chaleur reviendra à mon seigneur le roi."
3 And they sought a young woman beautiful in all [the] territory of Israel and they found Abishag the Shunammite and they brought her to the king.
On chercha une belle jeune fille dans tout le territoire d’Israël; on trouva Abisag, la Sunamite, et on l’amena au roi.
4 And the young woman [was] beautiful up to muchness and she became of the king a nurse and she served him and the king not he knew her.
Or, la jeune fille était fort belle. Elle devint la garde du roi et elle le servit; mais le roi n’eut pas commerce avec elle.
5 And Adonijah [the] son of Haggith [was] exalting himself saying I I will become king and he acquired for himself a chariot and horsemen and fifty man [were] running before him.
Adonias, fils de Hagghit, laissait percer son ambition en disant: "C’Est moi qui serai roi." Il se procura un char et des écuyers, se faisant précéder de cinquante coureurs.
6 And not he had rebuked him father his from days his saying why? thus have you done and also he [was] good of appearance very and him someone bore after Absalom.
Jamais son père ne l’avait contrarié en disant: "Pourquoi agis-tu ainsi?" Il était d’ailleurs d’une grande beauté, et il était venu au monde après Absalon.
7 And they were words his with Joab [the] son of Zeruiah and with Abiathar the priest and they helped after Adonijah.
Il eut des pourparlers avec Joab, fils de Cerouya, et le pontife Ebiathar, qui se rallièrent à son parti.
8 And Zadok the priest and Benaiah [the] son of Jehoiada and Nathan the prophet and Shimei and Rei and the mighty [men] who [belonged] to David not they were with Adonijah.
Pour le pontife Çadok, Benaïahou, fils de Joïada, le prophète Nathan, Séméi et Réi, et les vaillants de David, ils ne suivirent point Adonias.
9 And he sacrificed Adonijah sheep and cattle and fatling near [the] stone of Zoheleth which [was] beside En Rogel and he invited all brothers his [the] sons of the king and all [the] men of Judah [the] servants of the king.
Adonias fit égorger des pièces de menu et de gros bétail et des animaux engraissés, près de la pierre de Zohéleth, qui est à côté d’En-Roghel; il convia tous ses frères, les fils du roi, et tous les Judaïtes, serviteurs du roi.
10 And Nathan the prophet and Benaiah and the mighty [men] and Solomon brother his not he invited.
Mais Nathan le prophète, Benaïahou, les Vaillants, et Salomon, son frère, il ne les convia point.
11 And he said Nathan to Bath-sheba [the] mother of Solomon saying ¿ not have you heard that he has become king Adonijah [the] son of Haggith and lord our David not he knows.
Nathan dit à Bethsabée, mère de Salomon: "N’As-tu pas ouï dire qu’Adonias, fils de Hagghit, s’est fait roi? Notre maître David l’ignore.
12 And therefore come let me counsel you please counsel and save life your and [the] life of son your Solomon.
Eh bien! Écoute, je veux te donner un conseil, et tu sauveras ta vie et celle de ton fils Salomon.
13 Come and go - to the king David and you will say to him ¿ not you O lord my the king did you swear an oath to maidservant your saying that Solomon son your he will reign after me and he he will sit on throne my and why? has he become king Adonijah.
Va, entre chez le roi David, et dis-lui: "N’Est-il pas vrai, seigneur, que tu as juré à ta servante en disant: Certes, Salomon, ton fils, régnera après moi, c’est lui qui sera assis sur mon trône? Pourquoi donc Adonias règne-t-il?"
14 There! still you [are] speaking there with the king and I I will come after you and I will confirm words your.
Or, tandis que tu seras en train de parler ainsi au roi, moi, j’entrerai sur tes pas et je confirmerai tes paroles."
15 And she went Bath-sheba to the king the room towards and the king he was old very and Abishag the Shunammite [was] serving the king.
Bethsabée alla trouver le roi dans sa chambre. (Le roi était fort âgé, et Abisag, la Sunamite, le servait.)
16 And she bowed low Bath-sheba and she bowed down to the king and he said the king what? [is] to you.
Bethsabée s’inclina et se prosterna devant le roi, qui lui dit: "Que veux-tu?"
17 And she said to him O lord my you you swore an oath by Yahweh God your to maidservant your that Solomon son your he will reign after me and he he will sit on throne my.
Elle lui répondit: "Seigneur, tu as juré à ta servante par l’Eternel, ton Dieu, en disant: Salomon, ton fils, régnera après moi, et c’est lui qui sera assis sur mon trône.
18 And now here! Adonijah he has become king and now O lord my the king not you know.
Et maintenant, voici qu’Adonias règne et, à l’heure présente, seigneur, tu l’ignores!
19 And he has sacrificed ox[en] and fatling and sheep to abundance and he has invited all [the] sons of the king and Abiathar the priest and Joab [the] commander of the army and Solomon servant your not he has invited.
Il a tué une grande quantité de bœufs, de bêtes grasses, de menu bétail, et il a convié tous les fils du roi, Ebiathar, le pontife, Joab, le général d’armée; et Salomon, ton serviteur, il ne l’a pas convié.
20 And you O lord my the king [the] eyes of all Israel [are] on you to tell to them who? will he sit on [the] throne of lord my the king after him.
Quant à toi, seigneur, les yeux de tout Israël sont fixés sur toi, pour que tu lui déclares qui succèdera sur le trône à mon seigneur le roi.
21 And it will be when lies down lord my the king with ancestors his and I will be I and son my Solomon sinners.
Et il arrivera, lorsque mon seigneur le roi sera allé reposer avec ses pères, que moi et mon fils Salomon nous serons traités de rebelles."
22 And there! still she [was] speaking with the king and Nathan the prophet he came.
Elle parlait encore au roi, lorsque parut Nathan, le prophète.
23 And people told to the king saying here! Nathan the prophet and he came before the king and he bowed down to the king on face his [the] ground towards.
On l’annonça au roi, disant: "Voici Nathan, le prophète." Il entra en présence du roi et se prosterna devant lui, la face contre terre.
24 And he said Nathan O lord my the king you have you said? Adonijah he will reign after me and he he will sit on throne my.
Et il dit: "Est-ce toi, mon seigneur le roi, qui as dit: Adonias régnera après moi, et c’est lui qui s’assiéra sur mon trône?
25 For - he has gone down this day and he has sacrificed ox[en] and fatling and sheep to abundance and he has invited all [the] sons of the king and [the] commanders of the army and Abiathar the priest and there they [are] eating and drinking before him and they have said may he live the king Adonijah.
De fait, il est descendu aujourd’hui tuer des bœufs, des bêtes engraissées et des brebis en quantité; il a invité tous les fils du roi, les chefs de l’armée, le prêtre Ebiathar; et voici qu’ils mangent et boivent en sa présence, criant: "Vive le roi Adonias!"
26 And me I servant your and Zadok the priest and Benaiah [the] son of Jehoiada and Solomon servant your not he has invited.
Pour moi moi ton serviteur et le pontife Çadok, et Benaïahou, fils de Joïada, et ton serviteur Salomon, il ne nous a pas invités.
27 From with lord my the king has it occurred the matter this and not you made known (servant your *Q(K)*) who? will he sit on [the] throne of lord my the king after him.
Est-ce au nom de mon maître le roi qu’a eu lieu une telle chose, et sans que tu aies fait connaître à ton serviteur celui qui succèdera sur le trône au roi mon maître?"
28 And he answered the king David and he said summon for me Bath-sheba and she came before the king and she stood before the king.
Le roi David dit alors: "Faites venir Bethsabée." Elle entra chez le roi et se tint debout devant lui.
29 And he swore an oath the king and he said [by] [the] life of Yahweh who he has ransomed life my from every trouble.
Et le roi jura en ces termes: "Par le Dieu vivant, qui a sauvé ma vie de tout danger!
30 For just as I swore to you by Yahweh [the] God of Israel saying that Solomon son your he will reign after me and he he will sit on throne my in place of me for so I will do the day this.
comme je t’ai juré par l’Eternel, Dieu d’Israël, en disant que Salomon, ton fils, régnera après moi, et qu’il me remplacera sur le trône, ainsi ferai-je aujourd’hui."
31 And she bowed low Bath-sheba face ground and she bowed down to the king and she said may he live lord my the king David for ever.
Bethsabée s’inclina, la face contre terre, et se prosterna aux pieds du roi, en disant: "Vive à jamais le roi David, mon seigneur!"
32 And he said - the king David summon for me Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet and Benaiah [the] son of Jehoiada and they came before the king.
Puis le roi David dit: "Appelez-moi le pontife Çadok, le prophète Nathan et Benaïahou, fils de Joïada." Et ils vinrent devant le roi,
33 And he said the king to them take with you [the] servants of lord your and you will cause to ride Solomon son my on the mule which [belongs] to me and you will take down him to Gihon.
qui leur dit: "Faites-vous accompagner par les serviteurs de votre maître; vous ferez monter Salomon, mon fils, sur ma propre mule, et vous le conduirez vers le Ghihôn.
34 And he will anoint him there Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet to king over Israel and you will give a blast on the ram's horn and you will say may he live the king Solomon.
Là, Çadok, le pontife, et Nathan, le prophète, le sacreront roi d’Israël; vous sonnerez du cor et vous direz: "Vive le roi Salomon!"
35 And you will come up after him and he will come and he will sit on throne my and he he will reign in place of me and him I have appointed to be ruler over Israel and over Judah.
Vous remonterez à sa suite, et il ira s’asseoir sur mon trône; c’est lui qui doit régner à ma place, et c’est lui que j’ai institué chef d’Israël et de Juda."
36 And he answered Benaiah [the] son of Jehoiada the king and he said - amen thus may he say Yahweh [the] God of lord my the king.
Benaïahou, fils de Joïada, répondit au roi: "Amen! Soit ainsi voulu par l’Eternel, Dieu du roi mon maître!
37 Just as he has been Yahweh with lord my the king so (he will be *Q(K)*) with Solomon and may he make great throne his more than [the] throne of lord my the king David.
Comme l’Eternel a été avec le roi mon maître, ainsi soit-il avec Salomon, et puisse-t-il rendre son trône encore plus grand que celui de mon seigneur le roi David!"
38 And he went down Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet and Benaiah [the] son of Jehoiada and the Kerethite[s] and the Pelethite[s] and they caused to ride Solomon on [the] mule of the king David and they brought him to Gihon.
Le pontife Çadok, le prophète Nathan et Benaîahou, fils de Joïada, descendirent, avec les Kerythi et Pelêthi, firent monter Salomon sur la mule du roi David, et le conduisirent vers le Ghihôn.
39 And he took Zadok the priest [the] horn of oil from the tent and he anointed Solomon and they gave a blast on the ram's horn and they said all the people may he live the king Solomon.
Le pontife Çadok, avec le cornet d’huile qu’il avait pris dans la Tente, oignit Salomon; on sonna du cor, et tout le peuple dit: "Vive le roi Salomon!"
40 And they went up all the people after him and the people [were] playing [the] flute with flutes and joyful joy great and it was split open the earth by noise their.
Et tout le peuple monta à sa suite, faisant résonner les flûtes, se livrant à une grande allégresse; leurs cris ébranlaient la terre.
41 And he heard Adonijah and all those [who] were invited who [were] with him and they they had finished to eat and he heard Joab [the] sound of the ram's horn and he said why? [is] [the] sound of the town in an uproar.
Adonias et tous ses convives, qui achevaient de manger, l’entendirent; et Joab, en percevant le son du cor, demanda: "D’Où vient ce bruit de la ville en émoi?"
42 Still he [was] speaking and there! Jonathan [the] son of Abiathar the priest he came and he said Adonijah come for [are] a man of worth you and good you bear news.
Il parlait encore, lorsqu’il vit venir Jonathan, fils du prêtre Ebiathar. "Viens, dit Adonias, car tu es un vaillant homme et porteur de bonnes nouvelles."
43 And he answered Jonathan and he said to Adonijah indeed lord our the king David he has made king Solomon.
Jonathan répondit à Adonias: "En vérité, le roi David, notre maître, a donné la royauté à Salomon.
44 And he has sent with him the king Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet and Benaiah [the] son of Jehoiada and the Kerethite[s] and the Pelethite[s] and they have caused to ride him on [the] mule of the king.
Il a envoyé, pour l’accompagner, le pontife Çadok, le prophète Nathan, Benaïahou, fils de Joïada, les Kerêthi et Pelêthi, et on l’a fait monter sur la mule du roi.
45 And they have anointed him Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet to king at Gihon and they have gone up from there joyful and it was excited the town that [is] the noise which you have heard.
Et le pontife Çadok et le prophète Nathan lui ont donné l’onction royale près du Ghihôn, et ils sont revenus de là tout joyeux, et la cité est pleine d’émoi. De là le bruit que vous avez entendu.
46 And also he has sat Solomon on [the] throne of royalty.
De plus, Salomon s’est assis sur le trône royal.
47 And also they have come [the] servants of the king to bless lord our the king David saying may he make good (God *Q(K)*) [the] name of Solomon more than name your and may he make great throne his more than throne your and he bowed down the king on the bed.
Bien mieux, les serviteurs du roi sont venus féliciter notre maître, le roi David, en disant: "Puisse le Seigneur rendre le nom de Salomon plus illustre encore que ton nom, et son trône plus grand que le tien!" Et le roi s’est prosterné sur sa couche.
48 And also thus he has said the king [be] blessed Yahweh [the] God of Israel who he has given this day [one who] sits on throne my and own eyes my [are] seeing.
Puis il s’est exprimé ainsi: Béni soit l’Eternel, Dieu d’Israël, qui a donné aujourd’hui un occupant à mon trône et m’en a rendu témoin!"
49 And they trembled and they rose up all those [who] were invited who [belonged] to Adonijah and they went each to way his.
Saisis d’effroi, tous les invités d’Adonias se levèrent et se dirigèrent chacun de son côté.
50 And Adonijah he was afraid of Solomon and he arose and he went and he took hold on [the] horns of the altar.
Pour Adonias, craignant Salomon, il se leva également et alla embrasser les cornes de l’autel.
51 And it was told to Solomon saying there! Adonijah he fears the king Solomon and there! he has taken hold on [the] horns of the altar saying let him swear to me as the day the king Solomon if he will put to death servant his by the sword.
Salomon en fut informé en ces termes: "Voici, Adonias a pris peur du roi Salomon, il est allé saisir les cornes de l’autel et a dit: Que le roi Salomon m’affirme sous serment aujourd’hui qu’il ne fera point périr son serviteur par le glaive!"
52 And he said Solomon if he will become a son of worth not it will fall one of hair[s] his [the] ground towards and if evil it will be found in him and he will die.
Salomon dit alors: "S’Il se conduit en homme de bien, pas un de ses cheveux ne tombera à terre; mais si un acte pervers lui est imputable, il mourra."
53 And he sent the king Solomon and they brought down him from at the altar and he came and he bowed down to the king Solomon and he said to him Solomon go to house your.
Le roi Salomon envoya des gens, qui le firent descendre de l’autel, et il vint se prosterner devant le roi Salomon, qui lui dit: "Rentre en ta demeure."
