Ezekiel, 29

1. In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the eleventh day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

1. La dixième année, le douzième jour du dixième mois, la parole de l`Éternel me fut adressée, en ces mots:

2. “Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and you shall prophesy about him and about all of Egypt.

2. Fils de l`homme, tourne ta face vers Pharaon, roi d`Égypte, Et prophétise contre lui et contre toute l`Égypte!

3. Speak, and you shall say: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Pharaoh, king of Egypt, you great dragon, who rests in the midst of your rivers. And you say: ‘Mine is the river, and I have made myself.’

3. Parle, et tu diras: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l`Éternel: Voici, j`en veux à toi, Pharaon, roi d`Égypte, Grand crocodile, qui te couches au milieu de tes fleuves, Et qui dis: Mon fleuve est à moi, c`est moi qui l`ai fait!

4. But I will place a bridle in your jaws. And I will adhere the fish of your rivers to your scales. And I will draw you out of the midst of your rivers, and all your fish will adhere to your scales.

4. Je mettrai une boucle à tes mâchoires, J`attacherai à tes écailles les poissons de tes fleuves, Et je te tirerai du milieu de tes fleuves, Avec tous les poissons qui s`y trouvent Et qui seront attachés à tes écailles.

5. And I will cast you into the desert, with all the fish of your river. You will fall upon the surface of the earth; you will not be taken up, nor gathered together. I have given you to the beasts of the earth and to the birds of the air, to be devoured.

5. Je te jetterai dans le désert, Toi et tous les poissons de tes fleuves. Tu tomberas sur la face des champs, Tu ne seras ni relevé ni ramassé; Aux bêtes de la terre et aux oiseaux du ciel Je te donnerai pour pâture.

6. And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the Lord. For you have been a staff made of reed to the house of Israel.

6. Et tous les habitants de l`Égypte sauront que je suis l`Éternel, Parce qu`ils ont été un soutien de roseau pour la maison d`Israël.

7. When they took hold of you with the hand, you broke, and so you wounded all of their shoulders. And when they leaned on you, you shattered, and so you injured all of their lower backs.

7. Lorsqu`ils t`ont pris dans la main, tu t`es rompu, Et tu leur as déchiré toute l`épaule; Lorsqu`ils se sont appuyés sur toi, tu t`es brisé, Et tu as rendu leurs reins immobiles.

8. Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will lead the sword over you, and I will destroy both man and beast from among you.

8. C`est pourquoi ainsi parle le Seigneur, l`Éternel: Voici, je ferai venir contre toi l`épée, Et j`exterminerai du milieu de toi les hommes et les bêtes.

9. And the land of Egypt will be a desert and a wilderness. And they shall know that I am the Lord. For you have said, ‘The river is mine, and I have made it.’

9. Le pays d`Égypte deviendra une solitude et un désert. Et ils sauront que je suis l`Éternel, Parce qu`il a dit: Le fleuve est à moi, c`est moi qui l`ai fait!

10. Therefore, behold, I am against you and against your rivers. And I will make the land of Egypt into a wilderness, destroyed by the sword from the tower of Syene all the way to the borders of Ethiopia.

10. C`est pourquoi voici, j`en veux à toi et à tes fleuves, Et je ferai du pays d`Égypte un désert et une solitude, Depuis Migdol jusqu`à Syène et aux frontières de l`Éthiopie.

11. The foot of man will not pass through it, and the foot of cattle will not walk in it. And it will be uninhabited for forty years.

11. Nul pied d`homme n`y passera, Nul pied d`animal n`y passera, Et il restera quarante ans sans être habité.

12. And I will set the land of Egypt in desolation, in the midst of desolate lands, and its cities in the midst of overturned cites. And they will be desolate for forty years. And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and I will disperse them among the lands.

12. Je ferai du pays d`Égypte une solitude entre les pays dévastés, Et ses villes seront désertes entre les villes désertes, Pendant quarante ans. Je répandrai les Égyptiens parmi les nations, Je les disperserai en divers pays.

13. For thus says the Lord God: After the end of forty years, I will gather the Egyptians from the peoples among whom they had been scattered.

13. Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l`Éternel: Au bout de quarante ans je rassemblerai les Égyptiens Du milieu des peuples où ils auront été dispersés.

14. And I will lead back the captivity of Egypt, and I will collect them in the land of Pathros, in the land of their nativity. And in that place, they will be a lowly kingdom.

14. Je ramènerai les captifs de l`Égypte, Je les ramènerai dans le pays de Pathros, Dans le pays de leur origine, Et là ils formeront un faible royaume.

15. It will be the lowest among the other kingdoms, and it will no longer be exalted above the nations. And I will diminish them, lest they rule over the Gentiles.

15. Ce sera le moindre des royaumes, Et il ne s`élèvera plus au-dessus des nations, Je les diminuerai, afin qu`ils ne dominent pas sur les nations.

16. And they will no longer be the confidence of the house of Israel, teaching iniquity, so that they may flee and follow them. And they shall know that I am the Lord God.”

16. Ce royaume ne sera plus pour la maison d`Israël un sujet de confiance; Il lui rappellera son iniquité, quand elle se tournait vers eux. Et ils sauront que je suis le Seigneur, l`Éternel.

17. And it happened that, in the twenty-seventh year, in the first month, on the first of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

17. La vingt-septième année, le premier jour du premier mois, la parole de l`Éternel me fut adressée, en ces mots:

18. “Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, has caused his army to serve with great servility against Tyre. Every head was shaven, and every shoulder was stripped of hair. And wages have not been paid to him, nor to his army, for Tyre, for the service by which he served for me against it.

18. Fils de l`homme, Nebucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, A fait faire à son armée un service pénible contre Tyr; Toutes les têtes sont chauves, toutes les épaules sont écorchées; Et il n`a retiré de Tyr aucun salaire, ni lui, ni son armée, Pour le service qu`il a fait contre elle.

19. Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will station Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, in the land of Egypt. And he will take its multitude, and he will prey upon its profits, and he will plunder its spoils. And this shall be the wages for his army

19. C`est pourquoi ainsi parle le Seigneur, l`Éternel: Voici, je donne à Nebucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, Le pays d`Égypte; Il en emportera les richesses, Il en prendra les dépouilles, Il en pillera le butin; Ce sera un salaire pour son armée.

20. and for the work by which he has served against it. I have given to him the land of Egypt, because he has labored for me, says the Lord God.

20. Pour prix du service qu`il a fait contre Tyr, Je lui donne le pays d`Égypte; Car ils ont travaillé pour moi, Dit le Seigneur, l`Éternel.

21. In that day, a horn will spring forth for the house of Israel, and I will give to you an open mouth in their midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”

21. En ce jour-là, je donnerai de la force à la maison d`Israël, Et je t`ouvrirai la bouche au milieu d`eux; Et ils sauront que je suis l`Éternel.

Versi relativi a Ezekiel, 29:

Ezekiel 29 contains a message of judgment against Pharaoh and Egypt because they have opposed to God's people. The chapter begins with a declaration of God that he is against Pharaoh and against Egypt and ends with a promise of restoration for the people of Israel. The following verses provide an expansion of the historical context and the implications of God's judgment on Egypt:

Isaiah 31:1: "Woe to those who come down to Egypt to seek help, and estimate in horses; and have confidence in cars, because they are many; and in the knights, because they are very powerful; and do not pay attention to the saint of Israel, and They do not seek the Lord! " This verse warns God's people against seeking help in Egypt rather than trusting God. The judgment message in Ezekiel 29 is a direct consequence of this lack of confidence in God.

Exodus 7:5: "And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord, when he extend my hand over Egypt, and take the children of Israel out of them." God promises to free the children of Israel from Egypt and show His power over the gods of Egypt. The judgment message in Ezekiel 29 is a fulfillment of this promise.

Isaiah 19:1: "Weight of Egypt. Behold, the Lord rides on a slight cloud, and enters Egypt; and the idols of Egypt shall shake before him, and the heart of the Egyptians will melt among them." This verse describes God's arrival to Egypt for judgment. Ezekiel's message 29 is an example of this divine justice.

Jeremiah 46:25: "The Lord of hosts, God of Israel, said, Behold, I will bring punishment on ammon of no, and over Pharaoh, and upon Egypt, together with their gods, and their kings; Pharaoh, and about those who trust him. " This verse predicts God's judgment on Egypt and its gods. Ezekiel's message 29 is a confirmation of this judgment.

Hosea 9:3: "They shall not dwell in the land of the Lord, but shall return to Egypt, and will eat in Assyria impure food." This verse prophesies the dispersal of the people of Israel and its subsequent return to Egypt. Ezekiel's message 29 is a response to this action and a statement of God's sovereignty over all nations, including Egypt.
