Ezéchiel 8
|
Now in the sixth year, in the sixth month, on the fifth day of the month, when I was in my house and the responsible men of Judah were seated before me, the hand of the Lord came on me there. | La sixième année, le cinquième jour du sixième mois, comme j`étais assis dans ma maison, et que les anciens de Juda étaient assis devant moi, la main du Seigneur, de l`Éternel, tomba sur moi. |
And looking, I saw a form like fire; from the middle of his body and down there was fire: and up from the middle of his body a sort of shining, like electrum. | Je regardai, et voici, c`était une figure ayant l`aspect d`un homme; depuis ses reins en bas, c`était du feu, et depuis ses reins en haut, c`était quelque chose d`éclatant, comme de l`airain poli. |
And he put out the form of a hand and took me by the hair of my head; and the wind, lifting me up between the earth and the heaven, took me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the way into the inner door facing to the north; where was the seat of the image of envy. | Il étendit une forme de main, et me saisit par les cheveux de la tête. L`esprit m`enleva entre la terre et le ciel, et me transporta, dans des visions divines, à Jérusalem, à l`entrée de la porte intérieure, du côté du septentrion, où était l`idole de la jalousie, qui excite la jalousie de l`Éternel. |
And I saw the glory of the Lord there, as in the vision which I saw in the valley. | Et voici, la gloire du Dieu d`Israël était là, telle que je l`avais vue en vision dans la vallée. |
Then he said to me, Son of man, now let your eyes be lifted up in the direction of the north; and on looking in the direction of the north, to the north of the doorway of the altar, I saw this image of envy by the way in. | Il me dit: Fils de l`homme, lève les yeux du côté du septentrion! Je levai les yeux du côté du septentrion; et voici, cette idole de la jalousie était au septentrion de la porte de l`autel, à l`entrée. |
And he said to me, Son of man, do you see what they are doing? even the very disgusting things which the children of Israel are doing here, causing me to go far away from my holy place? but you will see other most disgusting things. | Et il me dit: Fils de l`homme, vois-tu ce qu`ils font, les grandes abominations que commet ici la maison d`Israël, pour que je m`éloigne de mon sanctuaire? Mais tu verras encore d`autres grandes abominations. |
And he took me to the door of the open place; and looking, I saw a hole in the wall. | Alors il me conduisit à l`entrée du parvis. Je regardai, et voici, il y avait un trou dans le mur. |
And he said to me, Son of man, make a hole in the wall: and after making a hole in the wall I saw a door. | Et il me dit: Fils de l`homme, perce la muraille! Je perçai la muraille, et voici, il y avait une porte. |
And he said to me, Go in and see the evil and disgusting things which they are doing here. | Et il me dit: Entre, et vois les méchantes abominations qu`ils commettent ici! |
So I went in and saw; and there every sort of living thing which goes flat on the earth, and unclean beasts, and all the images of the children of Israel, were pictured round about on the wall. | J`entrai, et je regardai; et voici, il y avait toutes sortes de figures de reptiles et de bêtes abominables, et toutes les idoles de la maison d`Israël, peintes sur la muraille tout autour. |
And before them seventy of the responsible men of the children of Israel had taken their places, every man with a vessel for burning perfumes in his hand, and in the middle of them was Jaazaniah, the son of Shaphan; and a cloud of smoke went up from the burning perfume. | Soixante-dix hommes des anciens de la maison d`Israël, au milieu desquels était Jaazania, fils de Schaphan, se tenaient devant ces idoles, chacun l`encensoir à la main, et il s`élevait une épaisse nuée d`encens. |
And he said to me, Son of man, have you seen what the responsible men of the children of Israel do in the dark, every man in his room of pictured images? for they say, The Lord does not see us; the Lord has gone away from the land. | Et il me dit: Fils de l`homme, vois-tu ce que font dans les ténèbres les anciens de la maison d`Israël, chacun dans sa chambre pleine de figures? Car ils disent: L`Éternel ne nous voit pas, l`Éternel a abandonné le pays. |
Then he said to me, You will see even more disgusting things which they do. | Et il me dit: Tu verras encore d`autres grandes abominations qu`ils commettent. |
Then he took me to the door of the way into the Lord's house looking to the north; and there women were seated weeping for Tammuz. | Et il me conduisit à l`entrée de la porte de la maison de l`Éternel, du côté du septentrion. Et voici, il y avait là des femmes assises, qui pleuraient Thammuz. |
Then he said to me, Have you seen this, O son of man? you will see even more disgusting things than these. | Et il me dit: Vois-tu, fils de l`homme? Tu verras encore d`autres abominations plus grandes que celles-là. |
And he took me into the inner square of the Lord's house, and at the door of the Temple of the Lord, between the covered way and the altar, there were about twenty-five men with their backs turned to the Temple of the Lord and their faces turned to the east; and they were worshipping the sun, turning to the east. | Et il me conduisit dans le parvis intérieur de la maison de l`Éternel. Et voici, à l`entrée du temple de l`Éternel, entre le portique et l`autel, il y avait environ vingt-cinq hommes, tournant le dos au temple de l`Éternel et le visage vers l`orient; et ils se prosternaient à l`orient devant le soleil. |
Then he said to me, Have you seen this, O son of man? is it a small thing to the children of Judah that they do the disgusting things which they are doing here? for they have made the land full of violent behaviour, making me angry again and again: and see, they put the branch to my nose. | Et il me dit: Vois-tu, fils de l`homme? Est-ce trop peu pour la maison de Juda de commettre les abominations qu`ils commettent ici? Faut-il encore qu`ils remplissent le pays de violence, et qu`ils ne cessent de m`irriter? Voici, ils approchent le rameau de leur nez. |
For this reason I will let loose my wrath: my eye will not have mercy, and I will have no pity. | Moi aussi, j`agirai avec fureur; mon oeil sera sans pitié, et je n`aurai point de miséricorde; quand ils crieront à haute voix à mes oreilles, je ne les écouterai pas. |
