Ezequiel 29
Louis Segond 1910
1La dixième année, le douzième jour du dixième mois, la parole de l’Éternel me fut adressée, en ces mots:
2Fils de l’homme, tourne ta face vers Pharaon, roi d’Égypte, Et prophétise contre lui et contre toute l’Égypte!
3Parle, 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!
4Je 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.
5Je 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.
6Et 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.
7Lorsqu’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.
8C’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.
9Le 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!
10C’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.
11Nul pied d’homme n’y passera, Nul pied d’animal n’y passera, Et il restera quarante ans sans être habité.
12Je 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.
13Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Au bout de quarante ans je rassemblerai les Égyptiens Du milieu des peuples où ils auront été dispersés.
14Je 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.
15Ce 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.
16Ce 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.
17La vingt-septième année, le premier jour du premier mois, la parole de l’Éternel me fut adressée, en ces mots:
18Fils 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.
19C’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.
20Pour 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.
21En 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.
Reina-Valera 1909
1EN el año décimo, en el mes décimo, á los doce del mes, fué á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:
2Hijo del hombre, pon tu rostro contra Faraón rey de Egipto, y profetiza contra él y contra todo Egipto.
3Habla, y di: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí yo contra ti, Faraón rey de Egipto, el gran dragón que yace en medio de sus ríos, el cual dijo: Mío es mi río, y yo me lo hice.
4Yo pues, pondré anzuelos en tus mejillas, y pegaré los peces de tus ríos á tus escamas, y te sacaré de en medio de tus ríos, y todos los peces de tus ríos saldrán pegados á tus escamas.
5Y dejaréte en el desierto, á ti y á todos los peces de tus ríos: sobre la haz del campo caerás; no serás recogido, ni serás juntado: á las bestias de la tierra y á las aves del cielo te he dado por comida.
6Y sabrán todos los moradores de Egipto que yo soy Jehová, por cuanto fueron bordón de caña á la casa de Israel.
7Cuando te tomaron con la mano, te quebraste, y les rompiste todo el hombro: y cuando se recostaron sobre ti, te quebraste, y los deslomaste enteramente.
8Por tanto, así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí que yo traigo contra ti espada, y talaré de ti hombres y bestias.
9Y la tierra de Egipto será asolada y desierta: y sabrán que yo soy Jehová: porque dijo: Mi río, y yo lo hice.
10Por tanto, he aquí yo contra ti, y contra tus ríos; y pondré la tierra de Egipto en asolamientos de la soledad del desierto, desde Migdol hasta Seveneh, hasta el término de Etiopía.
11No pasará por ella pie de hombre, ni pie de bestia pasará por ella; ni será habitada por cuarenta años.
12Y pondré á la tierra de Egipto en soledad entre las tierras asoladas, y sus ciudades entre las ciudades destruídas estarán asoladas por cuarenta años: y esparciré á Egipto entre las gentes, y aventarélos por las tierras.
13Porque así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Al fin de cuarenta años juntaré á Egipto de los pueblos entre los cuales fueren esparcidos:
14Y tornaré á traer los cautivos de Egipto, y los volveré á la tierra de Patros, á la tierra de su habitación; y allí serán un reino bajo.
15En comparación de los otros reinos será humilde; ni más se alzará sobre las gentes: porque yo los disminuiré, para que no se enseñoreen en las gentes.
16Y no será más á la casa de Israel por confianza, que haga acordar el pecado, mirando en pos de ellos; y sabrán que yo soy el Señor Jehová.
17Y aconteció en el año veinte y siete, en el mes primero, al primero del mes, que fué á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:
18Hijo del hombre, Nabucodonosor rey de Babilonia hizo á su ejército prestar grande servicio contra Tiro. Toda cabeza se encalveció, y pelóse todo hombro; y ni para él ni para su ejército hubo paga de Tiro, por el servicio que prestó contra ella.
19Por tanto, así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí que yo doy á Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia, la tierra de Egipto; y él tomará su multitud, y cogerá sus despojos, y arrebatará su presa, y habrá paga para su ejército.
20Por su trabajo con que sirvió contra ella le he dado la tierra de Egipto: porque trabajaron por mí, dice el Señor Jehová.
21En aquel tiempo haré reverdecer el cuerno á la casa de Israel, y te daré apertura de boca en medio de ellos; y sabrán que yo soy Jehová.
King James Version
1In the tenth year, in the tenth month, in the twelfth day of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt:
3Speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, My river is mine own, and I have made it for myself.
4But I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales.
5And I will leave thee thrown into the wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the open fields; thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: I have given thee for meat to the beasts of the field and to the fowls of the heaven.
6And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
7When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst break, and rend all their shoulder: and when they leaned upon thee, thou brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.
8Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee.
9And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and they shall know that I am the LORD: because he hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it.
10Behold, therefore I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from the tower of Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia.
11No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
12And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be desolate forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
13Yet thus saith the Lord GOD; At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the people whither they were scattered:
14And I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their habitation; and they shall be there a base kingdom.
15It shall be the basest of the kingdoms; neither shall it exalt itself any more above the nations: for I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.
16And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, which bringeth their iniquity to remembrance, when they shall look after them: but they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
17And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
18Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyrus: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled: yet had he no wages, nor his army, for Tyrus, for the service that he had served against it:
19Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall take her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
20I have given him the land of Egypt for his labour wherewith he served against it, because they wrought for me, saith the Lord GOD.
21In that day will I cause the horn of the house of Israel to bud forth, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
World English Bible
1In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the twelfth day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
2“Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him and against all Egypt.
3Speak and say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great monster that lies in the middle of his rivers, that has said, ‘My river is my own, and I have made it for myself.’
4I will put hooks in your jaws, and I will make the fish of your rivers stick to your scales. I will bring you up out of the middle of your rivers, with all the fish of your rivers which stick to your scales.
5I’ll cast you out into the wilderness, you and all the fish of your rivers. You’ll fall on the open field. You won’t be brought together or gathered. I have given you for food to the animals of the earth and to the birds of the sky.
6“‘“All the inhabitants of Egypt will know that I am the LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
7When they took hold of you by your hand, you broke and tore all their shoulders. When they leaned on you, you broke and paralyzed all of their thighs.”
8“‘Therefore the Lord GOD says: “Behold, I will bring a sword on you, and will cut off man and animal from you.
9The land of Egypt will be a desolation and a waste. Then they will know that I am the LORD. “‘“Because he has said, ‘The river is mine, and I have made it,’
10therefore, behold, I am against you and against your rivers. I will make the land of Egypt an utter waste and desolation, from the tower of Seveneh even to the border of Ethiopia.
11No foot of man will pass through it, nor will any animal foot pass through it. It won’t be inhabited for forty years.
12I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the middle of the countries that are desolate. Her cities among the cities that are laid waste will be a desolation forty years. I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.”
13“‘For the Lord GOD says: “At the end of forty years I will gather the Egyptians from the peoples where they were scattered.
14I will reverse the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their birth. There they will be a lowly kingdom.
15It will be the lowest of the kingdoms. It won’t lift itself up above the nations any more. I will diminish them so that they will no longer rule over the nations.
16It will no longer be the confidence of the house of Israel, bringing iniquity to memory, when they turn to look after them. Then they will know that I am the Lord GOD.”’”
17It came to pass in the twenty-seventh year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
18“Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyre. Every head was made bald, and every shoulder was worn; yet he had no wages, nor did his army, from Tyre, for the service that he had served against it.
19Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I will give the land of Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. He will carry off her multitude, take her plunder, and take her prey. That will be the wages for his army.
20I have given him the land of Egypt as his payment for which he served, because they worked for me,’ says the Lord GOD.
21“In that day I will cause a horn to sprout for the house of Israel, and I will open your mouth among them. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”
