| 1 | Thus hath the Lord GOD shewed unto me; and, behold, he formed grasshoppers in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and, lo, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings. | Le Seigneur l'Eternel me fit voir cette vision, et voici, il formait des sauterelles au commencement que le regain croissait; et voici, c'était le regain d'après les fenaisons du Roi. | Thus the Lord Jehovah showed me: and, behold, he formed locusts in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and, lo, it was the latter growth after the king`s mowings. |
| 2 | And it came to pass, that when they had made an end of eating the grass of the land, then I said, O Lord GOD, forgive, I beseech thee: by whom shall Jacob arise? for he is small. | Et quand elles eurent achevé de manger l'herbe de la terre, alors je dis: Seigneur Eternel, sois propice, je te prie; Comment se relèverait Jacob? car il est petit. | And it came to pass that, when they made an end of eating the grass of the land, then I said, O Lord Jehovah, forgive, I beseech thee: how shall Jacob stand? for he is small. |
| 3 | The LORD repented for this: It shall not be, saith the LORD. | Et l'Eternel se repentit de cela. Cela n'arrivera point, dit l'Eternel. | Jehovah repented concerning this: It shall not be, saith Jehovah. |
| 4 | Thus hath the Lord GOD shewed unto me: and, behold, the Lord GOD called to contend by fire, and it devoured the great deep, and did eat up a part. | Puis le Seigneur l'Eternel me fit voir cette vision: et voici, le Seigneur l'Eternel criait tout haut, qu'on fît jugement par feu; et le feu dévora un grand abîme, et il dévora aussi une pièce de terre. | Thus the Lord Jehovah showed me: and, behold, the Lord Jehovah called to content by fire; and it devoured the great deep, and would have eaten up the land. |
| 5 | Then said I, O Lord GOD, cease, I beseech thee: by whom shall Jacob arise? for he is small. | Et je dis: Seigneur Eternel! cesse, je te prie; comment se relèverait Jacob? car il est petit. | Then said I, O Lord Jehovah, cease, I beseech thee: how shall Jacob stand? for he is small. |
| 6 | The LORD repented for this: This also shall not be, saith the Lord GOD. | Et l'Eternel se repentit de cela. Cela aussi n'arrivera point, dit le Seigneur l'Eternel. | Jehovah repented concerning this: this also shall not be, saith the Lord Jehovah. |
| 7 | Thus he shewed me: and, behold, the LORD stood upon a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in his hand. | Puis il me fit voir cette vision: et voici, le Seigneur se tenait debout sur un mur fait au niveau, et il avait en sa main un niveau. | Thus he showed me: and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumb-line, with a plumb-line in his hand. |
| 8 | And the LORD said unto me, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A plumbline. Then said the LORD, Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel: I will not again pass by them any more: | Et l'Eternel me dit: Que vois-tu, Amos? Et je répondis: Un niveau. Et le Seigneur me dit: Voici, je m'en vais mettre le niveau au milieu de mon peuple d'Israël, et je ne lui en passerai plus. | And Jehovah said unto me, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A plumb-line. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumb-line in the midst of my people Israel; I will not again pass by them any more; |
| 9 | And the high places of Isaac shall be desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste; and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword. | Et les hauts lieux d'Isaac seront désolés, et les sanctuaires d'Israël seront détruits; et je me dresserai contre la maison de Jéroboam avec l'épée. | and the high places of Isaac shall be desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste; and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword. |
| 10 | Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words. | Alors Amatsia, Sacrificateur de Béthel, envoya dire à Jéroboam Roi d'Israël: Amos a conspiré contre toi au milieu de la maison d'Israël; le pays ne pourrait pas porter toutes ses paroles. | Then Amaziah the priest of Beth-el sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words. |
| 11 | For thus Amos saith, Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of their own land. | Car ainsi a dit Amos: Jéroboam mourra par l'épée, et Israël ne manquera point d'être transporté hors de sa terre. | For thus Amos saith, Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land. |
| 12 | Also Amaziah said unto Amos, O thou seer, go, flee thee away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there: | Puis Amatsia dit à Amos: Voyant, va, et t'enfuis au pays de Juda, et mange là ton pain, et y prophétise. | Also Amaziah said unto Amos, O thou seer, go, flee thou away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there: |
| 13 | But prophesy not again any more at Bethel: for it is the king's chapel, and it is the king's court. | Mais ne continue plus de prophétiser à Béthel; car c'est le sanctuaire du Roi, et c'est la maison du Royaume. | but prophesy not again any more at Beth-el; for it is the king`s sanctuary, and it is a royal house. |
| 14 | Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was an herdman, and a gatherer of sycomore fruit: | Et Amos répondit, et dit à Amatsia: Je n'étais ni Prophète, ni fils de Prophète; mais j'étais un bouvier, et je cueillais des figues sauvages; | Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet`s son; but I was a herdsman, and a dresser of sycomore-trees: |
| 15 | And the LORD took me as I followed the flock, and the LORD said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel. | Et l'Eternel me prit d'après le troupeau, et l'Eternel me dit: Va, prophétise à mon peuple d'Israël. | and Jehovah took me from following the flock, and Jehovah said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel. |
| 16 | Now therefore hear thou the word of the LORD: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and drop not thy word against the house of Isaac. | Ecoute donc maintenant la parole de l'Eternel; Tu me dis: Ne prophétise plus contre Israël, et ne fais plus dégoutter la parole contre la maison d'Isaac. | Now therefore hear thou the word of Jehovah: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and drop not [thy word] against the house of Isaac; |
| 17 | Therefore thus saith the LORD; Thy wife shall be an harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided by line; and thou shalt die in a polluted land: and Israel shall surely go into captivity forth of his land. | C'est pourquoi ainsi a dit l'Eternel: Ta femme se prostituera dans la ville, et tes fils et tes filles tomberont par l'épée, et ta terre sera partagée au cordeau, et tu mourras en une terre souillée, et Israël ne manquera point d'être transporté hors de sa terre. | therefore thus saith Jehovah: Thy wife shall be a harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided by line; and thou thyself shalt die in a land that is unclean, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land. |
