Parallel
Amos 8
Louis Segond 1910 · Berean Standard Bible
Le Seigneur, l’Éternel, m’envoya cette vision.
This is what the Lord GOD showed me: I saw a basket of summer fruit (note: Or ripe fruit; also in verse 2).
Il dit: Que vois-tu, Amos?
“Amos, what do you see?” He asked. “A basket of summer fruit,” I replied. So the LORD said to me, “The end has come for My people Israel; I will no longer spare them.”
En ce jour-là, les chants du palais seront des gémissements,
“In that day,” declares the Lord GOD, “the songs (note: Or the singing women) of the temple (note: Or palace) will turn to wailing. Many will be the corpses, strewn in silence everywhere!”
Écoutez ceci, vous qui dévorez l’indigent,
Hear this, you who trample the needy, who do away with the poor of the land,
Vous dites: Quand la nouvelle lune sera-t-elle passée,
asking, “When will the New Moon be over, that we may sell grain? When will the Sabbath end, that we may market wheat? Let us reduce the ephah and increase the shekel (note: Or Let us reduce the measure and increase the price); let us cheat with dishonest scales.
Puis nous achèterons les misérables pour de l’argent,
Let us buy the poor with silver and the needy for a pair of sandals, selling even the chaff with the wheat!”
L’Éternel l’a juré par la gloire de Jacob:
The LORD has sworn by the Pride of Jacob: “I will never forget any of their deeds.
Le pays, à cause d’elles, ne sera-t-il pas ébranlé,
Will not the land quake for this, and all its dwellers mourn? All of it will swell like the Nile; it will surge and then subside like the Nile in Egypt.
En ce jour-là, dit le Seigneur, l’Éternel,
And in that day, declares the Lord GOD, I will make the sun go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the daytime.
Je changerai vos fêtes en deuil,
I will turn your feasts into mourning and all your songs into lamentation. I will cause everyone to wear sackcloth and every head to be shaved. I will make it like a time of mourning for an only son, and its outcome like a bitter day.
Voici, les jours viennent, dit le Seigneur, l’Éternel,
Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord GOD, when I will send a famine on the land—not a famine of bread or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the words of the LORD.
Ils seront alors errants d’une mer à l’autre,
People will stagger from sea to sea and roam from north to east, seeking the word of the LORD, but they will not find it.
En ce jour, les belles jeunes filles et les jeunes hommes mourront de soif.
In that day the lovely young women—the young men as well—will faint from thirst.
Ils jurent par le péché de Samarie,
Those who swear by the guilt of Samaria and say, ‘As surely as your god lives, O Dan,’ or, ‘As surely as the way (note: Or the god) of Beersheba lives’—they will fall, never to rise again.”
