< 2 Chronicles 21 >
1 And he lay down Jehoshaphat with ancestors his and he was buried with ancestors his in [the] city of David and he became king Jehoram son his in place of him.
Josaphat se coucha avec ses pères, et il fut enterré avec ses pères dans la ville de David; Joram, son fils, régna à sa place.
2 And [belonged] to him brothers [the] sons of Jehoshaphat Azariah and Jehiel and Zechariah and Azariahu and Michael and Shephatiah all these [were] [the] sons of Jehoshaphat [the] king of Israel.
Joram avait des frères, fils de Josaphat: Azarias, Jahiel, Zacharias, Azarias, Michaël et Saphatias; ils étaient tous fils de Josaphat, roi de Juda.
3 And he had given to them - father their gifts many to silver and to gold and to excellent things with cities of fortifications in Judah and the kingdom he gave to Jehoram for he [was] the firstborn.
Leur père leur avait donné des présents considérables en or et en argent, et en objets de prix, avec des villes fortes en Juda; mais il laissa le royaume à Joram, parce qu’il était le premier-né.
4 And he arose Jehoram over [the] kingdom of father his and he strengthened himself and he killed all brothers his with the sword and also some of [the] leaders of Israel.
Joram s’établit sur le royaume de son père et, lorsqu’il se fut affermi, il fit mourir par l’épée tous ses frères, et aussi quelques-uns des chefs d’Israël.
5 [was] a son of Thirty and two year[s] Jehoram when became king he and eight years he reigned in Jerusalem.
Joram avait trente-deux ans lorsqu’il devint roi, et il régna huit ans à Jérusalem.
6 And he walked in [the] way of - [the] kings of Israel just as they did [the] house of Ahab for [the] daughter of Ahab she was of him wife and he did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh.
Il marcha dans la voie des rois d’Israël, comme avait fait la maison d’Achab, car il avait pour femme une fille d’Achab, et il fit ce qui est mal aux yeux de Yahweh.
7 And not he was willing Yahweh to destroy [the] house of David on account of the covenant which he had made to David and since he had said to give to him a lamp and to descendants his all the days.
Mais Yahweh ne voulut pas détruire la maison de David, à cause de l’alliance qu’il avait contractée avec David, et parce qu’il lui avait dit qu’il lui donnerait toujours une lampe, à lui et à ses fils.
8 In days his it rebelled Edom from under [the] hand of Judah and they made king over them a king.
De son temps, Edom se révolta contre la domination de Juda et se donna un roi.
9 And he passed over Jehoram with commanders his and all the chariotry with him and it was he arose night and he struck down Edom which was surrounding him and [the] commanders of the chariotry.
Joram se mit en marche avec ses chefs et tous ses chars; s’étant levé de nuit, il battit les Edomites qui l’entouraient et les chefs des chars.
10 And it has rebelled Edom from under [the] hand of Judah until the day this then it rebelled Libnah at the time that from under hand his for he had forsaken Yahweh [the] God of ancestors his.
Edom s’affranchit de la domination de Juda, jusqu’à ce jour. Lobna s’affranchit aussi dans le même temps de sa domination, parce qu’il avait abandonné Yahweh, le Dieu de ses pères.
11 Also he he made high places in [the] mountains of Judah and he made prostitute [themselves] [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem and he thrust aside Judah.
Joram fit même des hauts lieux dans les montagnes de Juda; il poussa à la prostitution les habitants de Jérusalem, et il séduisit Juda.
12 And it came to him a writing from Elijah the prophet saying thus - he says Yahweh [the] God of David ancestor your because that not you have walked in [the] ways of Jehoshaphat father your and in [the] ways of Asa [the] king of Judah.
Il lui vint un écrit de la part du prophète Elie, disant: « Ainsi dit Yahweh, le Dieu de David, ton père: Parce que tu n’as pas marché dans les voies de Josaphat, ton père, et dans les voies d’Asa, roi de Juda,
13 And you have walked in [the] way of [the] kings of Israel and you have made prostitute [themselves] Judah and [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem as made [them] prostitute [themselves] [the] house of Ahab and also brothers your [the] house of father your good more than you you killed.
mais que tu as marché dans la voie des rois d’Israël; parce que tu as poussé à la prostitution Juda et les habitants de Jérusalem, comme la maison d’Achab poussait Israël à la prostitution, et parce que tu as fait mourir tes frères, meilleurs que toi, la maison même de ton père:
14 Here! Yahweh [is] about to strike a blow great on people your and on sons your and on wives your and on all property your.
voici que Yahweh frappera d’une grande plaie ton peuple, tes fils, tes femmes et tout ce qui t’appartient;
15 And you [will be] in sickness great in [the] sickness of bowels your until they will come out bowels your from the sickness days to days.
et toi, tu seras frappé de graves maladies, d’une maladie d’entrailles, telle que tes entrailles sortiront par la violence du mal, pendant de nombreux jours ».
16 And he stirred up Yahweh on Jehoram [the] spirit of the Philistines and the Arabs who [were] on [the] hand [the] Cushites.
Et Yahweh excita contre Joram l’esprit des Philistins et des Arabes voisins des Ethiopiens.
17 And they came up on Judah and they broke into it and they took captive all the property which was found to [the] house of the king and also sons his and wives his and not he remained to him a son that except Jehoahaz [the] young [one] of sons his.
Etant montés en Juda, ils s’y répandirent, pillèrent toutes les richesses qui se trouvaient dans la maison du roi, et emmenèrent aussi ses fils et ses femmes, de sorte qu’il ne lui resta plus d’autre fils que Joachaz, le plus jeune de ses fils.
18 And after all this he struck him Yahweh - in bowels his to a sickness to there not [was] healing.
Après tout cela, Yahweh le frappa dans ses entrailles d’une maladie sans remède.
19 And it was to days - from days and about [the] time of [the] going out of the end of days two they came out bowels his with sickness his and he died in diseases harmful and not they made for him people his a burning like [the] burning of ancestors his.
Les jours s’écoulant, sur la fin de la seconde année, les entrailles de Joram sortirent par la violence de son mal. Il mourut dans de grandes souffrances, et son peuple ne brûla pas de parfums en son honneur, comme il en avait brûlé pour ses pères.
20 A son of thirty and two [years] he was when became king he and eight years he reigned in Jerusalem and he went with not desire and people buried him in [the] city of David and not in [the] graves of the kings.
Joram avait trente-deux ans lorsqu’il devint roi, et il régna huit ans à Jérusalem. Il s’en alla sans être regretté, et on l’enterra dans la ville de David, mais non dans les sépulcres des rois.
