2 Samuel 12
1 And he sent Yahweh Nathan to David and he came to him and he said to him two men they were in a city one one [was] rich and one [was] poor.
Envoyé par le Seigneur vers David, Nathan alla le trouver et lui dit: "Deux hommes habitaient une même ville, l’un riche, l’autre pauvre.
2 To [the] rich [man] it belonged flock[s] and herd[s] many very.
Le riche possédait menu et gros bétail en très grande quantité.
3 And [belonged] to the poor [man] not anything that except a ewe-lamb one small which he had acquired and he nourished it and it grew up with him and with children his together from morsel his it ate and from cup his it drank and in bosom his it lay down and it was to him like a daughter.
Mais le pauvre ne possédait rien qu’une petite brebis, qu’il avait achetée. Il la nourrissait, et elle grandissait auprès de lui et de ses enfants, mangeant de son pain, buvant dans sa coupe, reposant sur son sein, traitée comme sa fille.
4 And he came a traveler to [the] man rich and he spared to take one of own sheep his and one of own cattle his to prepare for the traveler who had come to him and he took [the] ewe-lamb of the man poor and he prepared it for the man who had come to him.
Or, l’homme riche reçut la visite d’un voyageur, et, trop ménager de ses propres bêtes pour en offrir une à son hôte, il s’empara de la brebis du pauvre et la servit à l’hôte qui était venu chez lui…"
5 And it burned [the] anger of David on the man exceedingly and he said to Nathan [by] [the] life of Yahweh for [is] a son of death the man who did this.
David entra dans une grande colère contre cet homme et dit à Nathan: "Par le Dieu vivant! Il mérite la mort, l’auteur d’une telle action;
6 And the ewe-lamb he will restore fourfold consequence that he did the thing this and on that not he showed pity.
et la brebis, il doit en payer quatre fois la valeur, parce qu’il a commis cet acte et n’a pas eu de pitié!"
7 And he said Nathan to David you [are] the man thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel I I anointed you to king over Israel and I I delivered you from [the] hand of Saul.
Nathan dit à David: "Cet homme, c’est toi-même! Ainsi a parlé l’Eternel, Dieu d’Israël: Je t’ai sacré roi d’Israël, je t’ai préservé de la main de Saül;
8 And I gave! to you [the] house of master your and [the] wives of master your in bosom your and I gave! to you [the] house of Israel and Judah and if little and I will add to you like those and like those.
je t’ai donné la maison de ton maître, j’ai mis dans tes bras les femmes de ton maître, je t’ai établi chef de la maison d’Israël et de Juda; et si c’était trop peu, je t’en aurais encore ajouté tant et plus.
9 Why? have you despised - [the] word of Yahweh by doing the evil (in eyes my *Q(K)*) Uriah the Hittite you struck down with the sword and wife his you took for yourself to a wife and him you killed with [the] sword of [the] people of Ammon.
Pourquoi donc as-tu méprisé la parole du Seigneur et fait ce qu’il lui déplaît? Tu as fait périr par le glaive Urie le Héthéen et pris sa femme pour épouse; oui, tu l’as tué par l’épée des Ammonites.
10 And therefore not it will depart [the] sword from house your until perpetuity consequence for you despised me and you took [the] wife of Uriah the Hittite to become of you a wife.
Eh bien! L’Épée ne cessera jamais de menacer ta maison, parce que tu m’as méprisé, parce que tu as pris la femme d’Urie le Héthéen pour en faire ton épouse.
11 Thus - he says Yahweh here I [am] about to raise up on you calamity from own house your and I will take wives your to eyes your and I will give [them] to neighbor your and he will lie with wives your to [the] eyes of the sun this.
Ainsi a parlé le Seigneur: Je susciterai le malheur contre toi, de ta propre maison; je prendrai tes femmes, toi vivant, et je les donnerai à l’un des tiens, et il aura commerce avec elles à la face de ce soleil!
12 For you you acted in secret and I I will do the thing this before all Israel and before the sun.
Si tu as agi, toi, clandestinement, moi j’exécuterai cette menace en présence de tout Israël et à la face du soleil."
13 And he said David to Nathan I have sinned to Yahweh. And he said Nathan to David also Yahweh he has taken away sin your not you will die.
David dit à Nathan: "J’Ai péché envers le Seigneur…" Et Nathan répondit à David: "Eh bien! Le Seigneur a effacé ta faute: tu ne mourras point.
14 Nevertheless for indeed you have declared contemptible [the] enemies of Yahweh by the thing this also the son born to you certainly he will die.
Toutefois, comme tu as, par ce péché, induit en blasphème les ennemis du Seigneur, l’enfant qui t’est né doit mourir."
15 And he went Nathan to house his and he struck Yahweh the child whom she had borne [the] wife of Uriah to David and he was sick.
Nathan regagna sa demeure et Dieu frappa l’enfant que la femme d’Urie avait donné à David; il tomba gravement malade.
16 And he sought David God for the lad and he fasted David a fast and he went and he passed [the] night and he lay (in the sackcloth *X*) [the] ground towards.
David implora Dieu pour cet enfant, s’imposa un jeûne et passa la nuit près de lui, couché par terre.
17 And they stood [the] elders of house his with him to raise him from the ground and not he was willing and not he ate with them food.
Les plus anciens de sa maison s’empressèrent autour de lui pour l’engager à se relever; mais il refusa et ne goûta aucune nourriture avec eux.
18 And it was on the day seventh and he died the child and they were afraid [the] servants of David to tell to him - that he had died the child for they said here! when was the child alive we spoke to him and not he listened to voice our and how? will we say to him he has died the child and he will do harm.
Or, le septième jour, l’enfant mourut. Les serviteurs de David n’osèrent lui annoncer cette mort, car ils se disaient: "Certes, quand l’enfant vivait, nous avons parlé au roi et il ne nous a point écoutés, et comment lui dirions-nous que l’enfant est mort? Il ferait un malheur."
19 And he saw David that servants his [were] whispering to one another and he understood David that he had died the child and he said David to servants his ¿ has he died the child and they said he has died.
David, voyant ses serviteurs chuchoter entre eux, comprit que l’enfant était mort, et il leur dit: "L’Enfant est mort? Il est mort," répondirent-ils.
20 And he arose David from the ground and he bathed and he anointed himself and he changed (garments his *Q(K)*) and he went [the] house of Yahweh and he bowed down and he went to own house his and he asked and they set for him food and he ate.
Alors David se releva de terre, prit un bain, se parfuma et changea de vêtements, puis se rendit à la maison de Dieu et se prosterna; il rentra chez lui, et, sur sa demande, on lui servit un repas qu’il mangea.
21 And they said servants his to him what? [is] the thing this which you have done for sake of the child [was] alive you fasted and you wept and just when he died the child you arose and you ate food.
"Que signifie cette conduite? lui dirent ses serviteurs. Pour l’enfant vivant tu as jeûné et pleuré, et maintenant qu’il est mort tu te relèves et tu prends de la nourriture!),
22 And he said while still the child [was] alive I fasted and I wept for I said who? [is] knowing (and he will show favor to me *Q(K)*) Yahweh and he will live the child.
Il répondit: "Alors que l’enfant vivait, j’ai jeûné et pleuré, car je pensais: Qui sait? Le Seigneur pourra me faire la grâce de laisser vivre cet enfant.
23 And now - he has died why? this [am] I fasting ¿ am I able to bring back him again I [am] going to him and he not he will return to me.
Maintenant qu’il est mort, pourquoi jeûnerais-je? Puis-je le faire revivre? J’Irai le rejoindre, mais lui ne reviendra pas près de moi."
24 And he comforted David Bath-sheba wife his and he went into her and he lay with her and she bore a son (and she called *Q(K)*) name his Solomon and Yahweh he loved him.
David réconforta sa femme Bethsabée. Il cohabita de nouveau avec elle, et elle enfanta un fils qu’elle nomma Salomon et qui fut aimé du Seigneur.
25 And he sent by [the] hand of Nathan the prophet and he called name his Jedidiah for sake of Yahweh.
Sur une mission donnée au prophète Nathan, on le surnomma Yedidya en considération du Seigneur.
26 And he fought Joab against Rabbah of [the] people of Ammon and he captured [the] city of royalty.
Joab attaqua la Rabba des Ammonites et s’empara de cette capitale.
27 And he sent Joab messengers to David and he said I have fought against Rabbah also I have captured [the] city of the waters.
Il envoya des messagers à David et lui fit dire: "J’Ai attaqué Rabba et j’ai même pris la ville des Eaux.
28 And therefore gather [the] rest of the people and encamp on the city and capture it lest I should take I the city and it will be called name my on it.
Maintenant donc, rassemble le reste de l’armée, campe devant la ville et t’en empare, afin que moi je n’en prenne pas possession et que l’honneur n’en revienne pas à mon nom."
29 And he gathered David all the people and he went Rabbah towards and he fought against it and he captured it.
David rassembla donc le reste de l’armée, alla guerroyer contre Rabba et s’en empara.
30 And he took [the] crown of king their from on head his and weight its [was] a talent of gold and a stone precious and it was on [the] head of David and [the] plunder of the city he brought out much very.
Il enleva de la tête du roi sa couronne, pesant un kikkar d’or et ornée de pierres précieuses, et qui passa sur la tête de David. Il emporta le butin de la ville en très grande quantité.
31 And the people which [was] in it he brought out and he set [them] at the saws and at [the] picks of iron and at [the] axes of iron and he caused to pass them (in the brick mold[s] *Q(K)*) and thus he did to all [the] cities of [the] people of Ammon and he returned David and all the people Jerusalem.
Il emmena le peuple qui s’y trouvait, le condamna à la scie, aux herses de fer, aux haches de fer, l’envoya au four à briques, et il en usa de même à l’égard de toutes les villes des Ammonites. Puis David, avec toute l’armée, rentra à Jérusalem.
