Parallel
Isaiah 19
Louis Segond 1910 · Berean Standard Bible
Oracle sur l’Égypte.
This is the burden against Egypt: Behold, the LORD rides on a swift cloud; He is coming to Egypt. The idols of Egypt will tremble before Him, and the hearts of the Egyptians will melt within them.
J’armerai l’Égyptien contre l’Égyptien,
“So I will incite Egyptian against Egyptian; brother will fight against brother, neighbor against neighbor, city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
L’esprit de l’Égypte disparaîtra du milieu d’elle,
Then the spirit of the Egyptians will be emptied out from among them, and I will frustrate their plans, so that they will resort to idols and spirits of the dead, to mediums and spiritists.
Et je livrerai l’Égypte entre les mains d’un maître sévère;
I will deliver the Egyptians into the hands of a harsh master, and a fierce king will rule over them,” declares the Lord GOD of Hosts.
Les eaux de la mer tariront,
The waters of the Nile will dry up, and the riverbed will be parched and empty.
Les rivières seront infectes,
The canals will stink; the streams of Egypt will trickle and dry up; the reeds and rushes will wither.
Ce ne sera que nudité le long du fleuve, à l’embouchure du fleuve;
The bulrushes by the Nile, by the mouth of the river, and all the fields sown along the Nile, will wither, blow away, and be no more.
Les pêcheurs gémiront,
Then the fishermen will mourn, all who cast a hook into the Nile will lament, and those who spread nets on the waters will pine away.
Ceux qui travaillent le lin peigné
The workers in flax will be dismayed, and the weavers of fine linen will turn pale.
Les soutiens du pays seront dans l’abattement,
The workers in cloth (note: Or Its pillars) will be dejected, and all the hired workers will be sick at heart.
Les princes de Tsoan ne sont que des insensés,
The princes of Zoan are mere fools; Pharaoh’s wise counselors give senseless advice. How can you say to Pharaoh, “I am one of the wise, a son of eastern kings”?
Où sont-ils donc tes sages?
Where are your wise men now? Let them tell you and reveal what the LORD of Hosts has planned against Egypt.
Les princes de Tsoan sont fous,
The princes of Zoan have become fools; the princes of Memphis (note: LXX; Hebrew Noph) are deceived. The cornerstones of her tribes have led Egypt astray.
L’Éternel a répandu au milieu d’elle un esprit de vertige,
The LORD has poured into her a spirit of confusion. Egypt has been led astray in all she does, as a drunkard staggers through his own vomit.
Et l’Égypte sera hors d’état de faire
There is nothing Egypt can do—head or tail, palm or reed.
En ce jour, l’Égypte sera comme des femmes:
In that day the Egyptians will be like women. They will tremble with fear beneath the uplifted hand of the LORD of Hosts, when He brandishes it against them.
Et le pays de Juda sera pour l’Égypte un objet d’effroi:
The land of Judah will bring terror to Egypt; whenever Judah is mentioned, Egypt will tremble over what the LORD of Hosts has planned against it.
En ce temps-là, il y aura cinq villes au pays d’Égypte,
In that day five cities in the land of Egypt will speak the language of Canaan and swear allegiance to the LORD of Hosts. One of them will be called the City of the Sun (note: Some MT manuscripts, DSS, and Vulgate; most MT manuscripts City of Destruction).
En ce même temps, il y aura un autel à l’Éternel
In that day there will be an altar to the LORD in the center of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to the LORD near her border.
Ce sera pour l’Éternel des armées un signe et un témoignage
It will be a sign and a witness to the LORD of Hosts in the land of Egypt. When they cry out to the LORD because of their oppressors, He will send them a savior and defender to rescue them.
Et l’Éternel sera connu des Égyptiens,
The LORD will make Himself known to Egypt, and on that day Egypt will acknowledge the LORD. They will worship with sacrifices and offerings; they will make vows to the LORD and fulfill them.
Ainsi l’Éternel frappera les Égyptiens,
And the LORD will strike Egypt with a plague; He will strike them but heal them. They will turn to the LORD, and He will hear their prayers and heal them.
En ce même temps, il y aura une route d’Égypte en Assyrie:
In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria. The Assyrians will go to Egypt, and the Egyptians to Assyria. The Egyptians and Assyrians will worship together.
En ce même temps, Israël sera, lui troisième,
In that day Israel will join a three-party alliance with Egypt and Assyria—a blessing upon the earth.
L’Éternel des armées les bénira, en disant:
The LORD of Hosts will bless them, saying, “Blessed be Egypt My people, Assyria My handiwork, and Israel My inheritance.”
