Louis Segond 1910
1When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am God Almighty. Walk before me and be blameless.
1Lorsque Abram fut âgé de quatre-vingt-dix-neuf ans, l’Éternel apparut à Abram, et lui dit: Je suis le Dieu tout-puissant. Marche devant ma face, et sois intègre.
2I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.”
2J’établirai mon alliance entre moi et toi, et je te multiplierai à l’infini.
3Abram fell on his face. God talked with him, saying,
3Abram tomba sur sa face; et Dieu lui parla, en disant:
4“As for me, behold, my covenant is with you. You will be the father of a multitude of nations.
4Voici mon alliance, que je fais avec toi. Tu deviendras père d’une multitude de nations.
5Your name will no more be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.
5On ne t’appellera plus Abram; mais ton nom sera Abraham, car je te rends père d’une multitude de nations.
6I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you. Kings will come out of you.
6Je te rendrai fécond à l’infini, je ferai de toi des nations; et des rois sortiront de toi.
7I will establish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you and to your offspring after you.
7J’établirai mon alliance entre moi et toi, et tes descendants après toi, selon leurs générations: ce sera une alliance perpétuelle, en vertu de laquelle je serai ton Dieu et celui de ta postérité après toi.
8I will give to you, and to your offspring after you, the land where you are traveling, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession. I will be their God.”
8Je te donnerai, et à tes descendants après toi, le pays que tu habites comme étranger, tout le pays de Canaan, en possession perpétuelle, et je serai leur Dieu.
9God said to Abraham, “As for you, you shall keep my covenant, you and your offspring after you throughout their generations.
9Dieu dit à Abraham: Toi, tu garderas mon alliance, toi et tes descendants après toi, selon leurs générations.
10This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your offspring after you. Every male among you shall be circumcised.
10C’est ici mon alliance, que vous garderez entre moi et vous, et ta postérité après toi: tout mâle parmi vous sera circoncis.
11You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin. It will be a token of the covenant between me and you.
11Vous vous circoncirez; et ce sera un signe d’alliance entre moi et vous.
12He who is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every male throughout your generations, he who is born in the house, or bought with money from any foreigner who is not of your offspring.
12A l’âge de huit jours, tout mâle parmi vous sera circoncis, selon vos générations, qu’il soit né dans la maison, ou qu’il soit acquis à prix d’argent de tout fils d’étranger, sans appartenir à ta race.
13He who is born in your house, and he who is bought with your money, must be circumcised. My covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
13On devra circoncire celui qui est né dans la maison et celui qui est acquis à prix d’argent; et mon alliance sera dans votre chair une alliance perpétuelle.
14The uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his people. He has broken my covenant.”
14Un mâle incirconcis, qui n’aura pas été circoncis dans sa chair, sera exterminé du milieu de son peuple: il aura violé mon alliance.
15God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but her name shall be Sarah.
15Dieu dit à Abraham: Tu ne donneras plus à Saraï, ta femme, le nom de Saraï; mais son nom sera Sara.
16I will bless her, and moreover I will give you a son by her. Yes, I will bless her, and she will be a mother of nations. Kings of peoples will come from her.”
16Je la bénirai, et je te donnerai d’elle un fils; je la bénirai, et elle deviendra des nations; des rois de peuples sortiront d’elle.
17Then Abraham fell on his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, “Will a child be born to him who is one hundred years old? Will Sarah, who is ninety years old, give birth?”
17Abraham tomba sur sa face; il rit, et dit en son cœur: Naîtrait-il un fils à un homme de cent ans? Et Sara, âgée de quatre-vingt-dix ans, enfanterait-elle?
18Abraham said to God, “Oh that Ishmael might live before you!”
18Et Abraham dit à Dieu: Oh! Qu’Ismaël vive devant ta face!
19God said, “No, but Sarah, your wife, will bear you a son. You shall call his name Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant for his offspring after him.
19Dieu dit: Certainement Sara, ta femme, t’enfantera un fils; et tu l’appelleras du nom d’Isaac. J’établirai mon alliance avec lui comme une alliance perpétuelle pour sa postérité après lui.
20As for Ishmael, I have heard you. Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly. He will become the father of twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation.
20A l’égard d’Ismaël, je t’ai exaucé. Voici, je le bénirai, je le rendrai fécond, et je le multiplierai à l’infini; il engendrera douze princes, et je ferai de lui une grande nation.
21But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this set time next year.”
21J’établirai mon alliance avec Isaac, que Sara t’enfantera à cette époque-ci de l’année prochaine.
22When he finished talking with him, God went up from Abraham.
22Lorsqu’il eut achevé de lui parler, Dieu s’éleva au-dessus d’Abraham.
23Abraham took Ishmael his son, all who were born in his house, and all who were bought with his money: every male among the men of Abraham’s house, and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the same day, as God had said to him.
23Abraham prit Ismaël, son fils, tous ceux qui étaient nés dans sa maison et tous ceux qu’il avait acquis à prix d’argent, tous les mâles parmi les gens de la maison d’Abraham; et il les circoncit ce même jour, selon l’ordre que Dieu lui avait donné.
24Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
24Abraham était âgé de quatre-vingt-dix-neuf ans, lorsqu’il fut circoncis.
25Ishmael, his son, was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
25Ismaël, son fils, était âgé de treize ans lorsqu’il fut circoncis.
26In the same day both Abraham and Ishmael, his son, were circumcised.
26Ce même jour, Abraham fut circoncis, ainsi qu’Ismaël, son fils.
27All the men of his house, those born in the house, and those bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with him.
27Et tous les gens de sa maison, nés dans sa maison, ou acquis à prix d’argent des étrangers, furent circoncis avec lui.
