Exodus 4
1 And he answered Moses and he said and here! not they will believe me and not they will listen to voice my for they will say not he appeared to you Yahweh.
Moïse prit la parole et dit: "Mais certes, ils ne me croiront pas et ils n’écouteront pas ma voix, parce qu’ils diront: L’Éternel ne t’est point apparu."
2 And he said to him Yahweh (what [is] this? *Q(K)*) [is] in hand your and he said a staff.
Le Seigneur lui dit: "Qu’as-tu là à la main?" Il répondit: "Une verge."
3 And he said throw it [the] ground towards and he threw it [the] ground towards and it became a snake and he fled Moses from before it.
Il reprit: "Jette-la à terre!" Et il la jeta à terre et elle devint un serpent. Moïse s’enfuit à cette vue.
4 And he said Yahweh to Moses stretch out hand your and hold on tail its and he stretched out hand his and he took hold on it and it became a staff in hand his.
Le Seigneur dit à Moïse: "Avance la main et saisis sa queue!" Il avança la main et le saisit et il redevint verge dans sa main.
5 So that they may believe that he appeared to you Yahweh [the] God ancestors their [the] God of Abraham [the] God of Isaac and [the] God of Jacob.
"Ceci leur prouvera qu’il s’est révélé à toi, l’Éternel, le Dieu de leurs pères, le Dieu d’Abraham, d’Isaac et de Jacob."
6 And he said Yahweh to him again put please hand your in bosom your and he put hand his in bosom his and he brought out it and there! hand his [was] leprous like snow.
Le Seigneur lui dit encore: "Mets ta main dans ton sein." Il mit sa main dans son sein, l’en retira et voici qu’elle était lépreuse, blanche comme la neige.
7 And he said return hand your into bosom your and he returned hand his into bosom his and he brought out it from bosom his and there! it had turned back like flesh his.
II reprit: "Replace ta main dans ton sein." Il remit sa main dans son sein, puis il l’en retira et voici qu’elle avait repris sa carnation.
8 And it will be if not they will believe you and not they will listen to [the] voice of the sign former and they will believe [the] voice of the sign latter.
"Eh bien! s’ils n’ont pas croyance en toi, s’ils sont sourds à la voix du premier prodige, ils devront céder à la voix du dernier.
9 And it will be if not they will believe also [the] two the signs these and not they will listen! to voice your and you will take some of [the] water of the River and you will pour [it] out the dry ground and they will become the waters which you will take from the River and they will become blood on the dry ground.
Que s’ils restent incrédules en présence de ces deux prodiges et s’ils n’écoutent pas ta voix, tu prendras des eaux du fleuve et tu les répandras à terre et ces eaux que tu auras prises du fleuve deviendront du sang sur la terre."
10 And he said Moses to Yahweh pardon me O Lord not [am] a man of words I neither from yesterday nor from three days ago nor from then speaking you to servant your for [am] heavy of mouth and heavy of tongue I.
Moïse dit à l’Éternel: "De grâce, Seigneur! je ne suis habile à parler, ni depuis hier, ni depuis avant-hier, ni depuis que tu parles à ton serviteur; car j’ai la bouche pesante et la langue embarrassée."
11 And he said Yahweh to him who? did he make a mouth of person or who? does he make dumb or deaf or seeing or blind ¿ not [do] I Yahweh.
L’Éternel lui répondit: "Qui a donné une bouche à l’homme? qui le fait muet ou sourd, clairvoyant ou aveugle, si ce n’est moi, l’Éternel?
12 And therefore go and I I will be with mouth your and I will teach you [that] which you will say.
Va donc, je seconderai ta parole et je t’inspirerai ce que tu devras dire."
13 And he said pardon me O Lord send please by [the] hand of [whoever] you will send.
Il repartit: "De grâce, Seigneur! donne cette mission à quelque autre!"
14 And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Moses and he said ¿ not [is] Aaron brother your the Levite I know that well he speaks he and also there! he [is] coming out to meet you and he will see you and he will be glad in heart his.
Le courroux de l’Éternel s’alluma contre Moïse et il dit: "Eh bien! c’est Aaron ton frère, le Lévite, que je désigne! Oui, c’est lui qui parlera! Déjà même il s’avance à ta rencontre et à ta vue il se réjouira dans son cœur.
15 And you will speak to him and you will put the words in mouth his and I I will be with mouth your and with mouth his and I will teach you [that] which you will do!
Tu lui parleras et tu transmettras les paroles à sa bouche; pour moi, j’assisterai ta bouche et la sienne et je vous apprendrai ce que vous aurez à faire.
16 And he will speak he for you to the people and it will be he he will become of you a mouth and you you will become of him a god.
Lui, il parlera pour toi au peuple, de sorte qu’il sera pour toi un organe et que tu seras pour lui un inspirateur.
17 And the staff this you will take in hand your which you will do with it the signs.
Cette même verge, tu l’auras à la main, car c’est par elle que tu opéreras les miracles."
18 And he went Moses and he returned - to Jethro father-in-law his and he said to him let me go please so I may return to relatives my who [are] in Egypt so I may see ¿ [are] still they living and he said Jethro to Moses go to peace.
Là-dessus Moïse s’en retourna chez Jéthro, son beau-père et lui dit: "Je voudrais partir, retourner près de mes frères qui sont en Égypte, afin de voir s’ils vivent encore." Jéthro répondit à Moïse: "Va en paix."
19 And he said Yahweh to Moses in Midian go return Egypt for they have died all the men who sought life your.
L’Éternel dit à Moïse, en Madian: "Va, retourne en Égypte; tous ceux-là sont morts qui en voulaient à ta vie."
20 And he took Moses wife his and sons his and he made ride them on the donkey and he returned [the] land of towards Egypt and he took Moses [the] staff of God in hand his.
Moïse emmena sa femme et ses enfants, les plaça sur un âne et reprit le chemin du pays d’Égypte. Moïse tenait la verge divine à la main.
21 And he said Yahweh to Moses when going you to return Egypt towards see all the wonders which I have put in hand your and you will do them before Pharaoh and I I will make strong heart his and not he will let go the people.
L’Éternel dit à Moïse: "Maintenant que tu te disposes à rentrer en Egypte, sache que tous les miracles dont je t’aurai chargé, tu les accompliras devant Pharaon mais moi je laisserai s’endurcir son cœur et il ne renverra point le peuple.
22 And you will say to Pharaoh thus he says Yahweh [is] son my firstborn my Israel.
Alors tu diras à Pharaon: ‘Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Israël est le premier-né de mes fils;
23 And I said to you let go son my so he may serve me and you refused to let go him here! I [am] about to kill son your firstborn your.
or, je t’avais dit: Laisse partir mon fils, pour qu’il me serve et tu as refusé de le laisser partir. Eh bien! moi, je ferai mourir ton fils premier-né.’"
24 And it was on the journey at the lodging place and he met him Yahweh and he sought to kill him.
Pendant ce voyage, il s’arrêta dans une hôtellerie; le Seigneur l’aborda et voulut le faire mourir.
25 And she took Zipporah a flint and she cut off [the] foreskin of son her and she made [it] touch feet his and she said that [are] a bridegroom of blood you to me.
Séphora saisit un caillou, retrancha l’excroissance de son fils et la jeta à ses pieds en disant: "Est-ce donc par le sang que tu es uni à moi?"
26 And he withdrew from him then she said a bridegroom of blood to the circumcision.
Le Seigneur le laissa en repos. Elle dit alors: "Oui, tu m’es uni par le sang, grâce à la circoncision!"
27 And he said Yahweh to Aaron go to meet Moses the wilderness towards and he went and he met him at [the] mountain of God and he kissed him.
L’Éternel dit à Aaron: "Va au-devant de Moïse, dans le désert." Il y alla; il le rencontra sur la montagne et l’embrassa.
28 And he told Moses to Aaron all [the] words of Yahweh which he had sent him and all the signs which he had commanded him.
Moïse fit part à Aaron de toutes les paroles dont l’Éternel l’avait chargé et de tous les prodiges qu’il lui avait donné mission d’accomplir.
29 And he went Moses and Aaron and they gathered all [the] elders of [the] people of Israel.
Alors Moïse et Aaron partirent et assemblèrent tous les anciens des enfants d’Israël.
30 And he spoke Aaron all the words which he had spoken Yahweh to Moses and he did the signs to [the] eyes of the people.
Et Aaron dit toutes les paroles que l’Éternel avait adressées à Moïse et il opéra les prodiges à la vue du peuple.
31 And it believed the people and they heard that he had observed Yahweh [the] people of Israel and that he had seen affliction their and they bowed low and they bowed down.
Et le peuple y eut foi; ils comprirent que l’Éternel s’était souvenu des enfants d’Israël, qu’il avait considéré leur misère et ils courbèrent la tête et se prosternèrent.
