2 Samuel 12
1 L’Éternel envoya Nathan vers David. Et Nathan vint à lui, et lui dit: Il y avait dans une ville deux hommes, l’un riche et l’autre pauvre.
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.
2 Le riche avait des brebis et des bœufs en très grand nombre.
To [the] rich [man] it belonged flock[s] and herd[s] many very.
3 Le pauvre n’avait rien du tout qu’une petite brebis, qu’il avait achetée; il la nourrissait, et elle grandissait chez lui avec ses enfants; elle mangeait de son pain, buvait dans sa coupe, dormait sur son sein, et il la regardait comme sa fille.
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.
4 Un voyageur arriva chez l’homme riche. Et le riche n’a pas voulu toucher à ses brebis ou à ses bœufs, pour préparer un repas au voyageur qui était venu chez lui; il a pris la brebis du pauvre, et l’a apprêtée pour l’homme qui était venu chez lui.
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.
5 La colère de David s’enflamma violemment contre cet homme, et il dit à Nathan: L’Éternel est vivant! L’homme qui a fait cela mérite la mort.
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.
6 Et il rendra quatre brebis, pour avoir commis cette action et pour avoir été sans pitié.
And the ewe-lamb he will restore fourfold consequence that he did the thing this and on that not he showed pity.
7 Et Nathan dit à David: Tu es cet homme-là! Ainsi parle l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël: Je t’ai oint pour roi sur Israël, et je t’ai délivré de la main de Saül;
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.
8 je t’ai mis en possession de la maison de ton maître, j’ai placé dans ton sein les femmes de ton maître, et je t’ai donné la maison d’Israël et de Juda. Et si cela eût été peu, j’y aurais encore ajouté.
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.
9 Pourquoi donc as-tu méprisé la parole de l’Éternel, en faisant ce qui est mal à ses yeux? Tu as frappé de l’épée Urie, le Héthien; tu as pris sa femme pour en faire ta femme, et lui, tu l’as tué par l’épée des fils d’Ammon.
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.
10 Maintenant, l’épée ne s’éloignera jamais de ta maison, parce que tu m’as méprisé, et parce que tu as pris la femme d’Urie, le Héthien, pour en faire ta femme.
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.
11 Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Voici, je vais faire sortir de ta maison le malheur contre toi, et je vais prendre sous tes yeux tes propres femmes pour les donner à un autre, qui couchera avec elles à la vue de ce soleil.
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.
12 Car tu as agi en secret; et moi, je ferai cela en présence de tout Israël et à la face du soleil.
For you you acted in secret and I I will do the thing this before all Israel and before the sun.
13 David dit à Nathan: J’ai péché contre l’Éternel! Et Nathan dit à David: L’Éternel pardonne ton péché, tu ne mourras point.
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.
14 Mais, parce que tu as fait blasphémer les ennemis de l’Éternel, en commettant cette action, le fils qui t’est né mourra.
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.
15 Et Nathan s’en alla dans sa maison. L’Éternel frappa l’enfant que la femme d’Urie avait enfanté à David, et il fut dangereusement malade.
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.
16 David pria Dieu pour l’enfant, et jeûna; et quand il rentra, il passa la nuit couché par terre.
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.
17 Les anciens de sa maison insistèrent auprès de lui pour le faire lever de terre; mais il ne voulut point, et il ne mangea rien avec eux.
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.
18 Le septième jour, l’enfant mourut. Les serviteurs de David craignaient de lui annoncer que l’enfant était mort. Car ils disaient: Voici, lorsque l’enfant vivait encore, nous lui avons parlé, et il ne nous a pas écoutés; comment oserons-nous lui dire: L’enfant est mort? Il s’affligera bien davantage.
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.
19 David aperçut que ses serviteurs parlaient tout bas entre eux, et il comprit que l’enfant était mort. Il dit à ses serviteurs: L’enfant est-il mort? Et ils répondirent: Il est mort.
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.
20 Alors David se leva de terre. Il se lava, s’oignit, et changea de vêtements; puis il alla dans la maison de l’Éternel, et se prosterna. De retour chez lui, il demanda qu’on lui servît à manger, et il mangea.
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.
21 Ses serviteurs lui dirent: Que signifie ce que tu fais? Tandis que l’enfant vivait, tu jeûnais et tu pleurais; et maintenant que l’enfant est mort, tu te lèves et tu manges!
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.
22 Il répondit: Lorsque l’enfant vivait encore, je jeûnais et je pleurais, car je disais: Qui sait si l’Éternel n’aura pas pitié de moi et si l’enfant ne vivra pas?
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.
23 Maintenant qu’il est mort, pourquoi jeûnerais-je? Puis-je le faire revenir? J’irai vers lui, mais il ne reviendra pas vers moi.
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.
24 David consola Bath-Schéba, sa femme, et il alla auprès d’elle et coucha avec elle. Elle enfanta un fils qu’il appela Salomon, et qui fut aimé de l’Éternel.
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.
25 Il le remit entre les mains de Nathan le prophète, et Nathan lui donna le nom de Jedidja, à cause de l’Éternel.
And he sent by [the] hand of Nathan the prophet and he called name his Jedidiah for sake of Yahweh.
26 Joab, qui assiégeait Rabba des fils d’Ammon, s’empara de la ville royale,
And he fought Joab against Rabbah of [the] people of Ammon and he captured [the] city of royalty.
27 et envoya des messagers à David pour lui dire: J’ai attaqué Rabba, et je me suis déjà emparé de la ville des eaux;
And he sent Joab messengers to David and he said I have fought against Rabbah also I have captured [the] city of the waters.
28 rassemble maintenant le reste du peuple, campe contre la ville, et prends-la, de peur que je ne la prenne moi-même et que la gloire ne m’en soit attribuée.
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.
29 David rassembla tout le peuple, et marcha sur Rabba; il l’attaqua, et s’en rendit maître.
And he gathered David all the people and he went Rabbah towards and he fought against it and he captured it.
30 Il enleva la couronne de dessus la tête de son roi: elle pesait un talent d’or et était garnie de pierres précieuses. On la mit sur la tête de David, qui emporta de la ville un très grand butin.
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.
31 Il fit sortir les habitants, et il les plaça sous des scies, des herses de fer et des haches de fer, et les fit passer par des fours à briques; il traita de même toutes les villes des fils d’Ammon. David retourna à Jérusalem avec tout le peuple.
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.
