Genesis 37
1 And he dwelt Jacob in [the] land of [the] sojournings of father his in [the] land of Canaan.
Jacob s’établit dans le pays où son père avait séjourné dans le pays de Canaan.
2 These - [are] [the] accounts of Jacob Joseph [was] a son of seven-teen year[s] he was shepherding with brothers his the flock and he [was] a youth with [the] sons of Bilhah and with [the] sons of Zilpah [the] wives of father his and he brought Joseph report their bad to father their.
Voici l’histoire de Jacob. Joseph, âgé de dix-sept ans, faisait paître les brebis avec ses frères; comme il était encore jeune, il se trouvait avec les fils de Bala et avec les fils de Zelpha, femmes de son père; et Joseph rapporta à leur père de mauvais bruits qui couraient sur leur compte.
3 And Israel he loved Joseph more than all sons his for [was] a son of old age he for him and he made for him a long garment of palms and soles.
Or Israël aimait Joseph plus que tous ses autres fils, parce que c’était un fils de sa vieillesse; et il lui fit une robe longue.
4 And they saw brothers his that him he loved father their more than all brothers his and they hated him and not they were able to speak to him to welfare.
Ses frères, voyant que leur père l’aimait plus qu’eux tous, le prirent en haine, et ils ne pouvaient plus lui parler amicalement.
5 And he dreamed Joseph a dream and he told [it] to brothers his and they increased again to hate him.
Joseph eut un songe, et il le raconta à ses frères, qui le haïrent encore davantage.
6 And he said to them hear please the dream this which I have dreamed.
Il leur dit: « Ecoutez, je vous prie, le songe que j’ai eu:
7 And there! we [were] binding sheaves in [the] middle of the field and there! it arose sheaf my and also it stood upright and there! they gathered round sheaves your and they bowed down to sheaf my.
Nous étions à lier des gerbes au milieu des champs; et voici, ma gerbe s’est levée et s’est tenue debout, et vos gerbes l’ont entourée et se sont prosternées devant elle. »
8 And they said to him brothers his ¿ really will you reign over us or? certainly will you rule over us and they increased again to hate him on dreams his and on words his.
Ses frères lui dirent: « Est-ce que tu régneras sur nous? est-ce que tu nous domineras? » Et ils le haïrent encore davantage pour ses songes et pour ses paroles.
9 And he dreamed again a dream another and he recounted it to brothers his and he said here! I have dreamed a dream again and there! the sun and the moon and one plus ten stars [were] bowing down to me.
Il eut encore un autre songe, qu’il raconta à ses frères. Il dit: « J’ai eu encore un songe: le soleil, la lune et onze étoiles se prosternaient devant moi. »
10 And he recounted [it] to father his and to brothers his and he rebuked him father his and he said to him what? [is] the dream this which you have dreamed ¿ really will we come I and mother your and brothers your to bow down to you [the] ground towards.
Il le raconta à son père et à ses frères, et son père le réprimanda, en disant: « Que signifie ce songe que tu as eu? Faudra-t-il que nous venions, moi, ta mère et tes frères, nous prosterner à terre devant toi? »
11 And they were jealous of him brothers his and father his he kept the matter.
Et ses frères furent jaloux de lui, mais son père conservait la chose dans son cœur.
12 And they went brothers his to pasture [the] flock of father their at Shechem.
Les frères de Joseph allèrent paître les troupeaux de leur père à Sichem.
13 And he said Israel to Joseph ¿ not [are] brothers your pasturing at Shechem come! and I will send you to them and he said to him here [am] I.
Et Israël dit à Joseph: « Tes frères ne paissent-ils pas le troupeau à Sichem? Viens, que je t’envoie vers eux. » Il répondit: « Me voici. »
14 And he said to him go please see [the] welfare of brothers your and [the] welfare of the flock and bring to me word and he sent him from [the] valley of Hebron and he came Shechem towards.
Et Israël lui dit: « Va donc, et vois si tes frères vont bien et si le troupeau est en bon état, et tu m’en apporteras des nouvelles. » Et il l’envoya de la vallée d’Hébron, et Joseph alla à Sichem.
15 And he found him a man and there! [he was] wandering in the open country and he asked him the man saying what? are you seeking.
Un homme, l’ayant rencontré errant dans la campagne, le questionna, en disant: « Que cherches-tu? »
16 And he said brothers my I [am] seeking tell! please to me where? [are] they pasturing.
Il répondit: « Je cherche mes frères; indique-moi, je te prie, où ils font paître leur troupeau. »
17 And he said the man they have departed from here for I heard [them] saying let us go Dothan towards and he went Joseph after brothers his and he found them at Dothan.
Et l’homme dit: « Ils sont partis d’ici; car je les ai entendus dire: Allons à Dothaïn. » Joseph alla après ses frères, et il les trouva à Dothaïn.
18 And they saw him from a distance and just before he drew near to them and they dealt deceptively with him to kill him.
Ils l’aperçurent de loin et, avant qu’il fût près d’eux, ils complotèrent de le faire mourir.
19 And they said each to brother his there! [the] master of dreams this [is] coming.
Ils se dirent l’un à l’autre: « Voici l’homme aux songes; c’est bien lui qui arrive.
20 And now - come and let us kill him and let us throw him in one of the pits and we will say an animal wild it has eaten him and we may see what? will be dreams his.
Venez donc, tuons-le et jetons-le dans une des citernes, et nous dirons qu’une bête féroce l’a dévoré; nous verrons ce qui en sera de ses songes! »
21 And he heard Reuben and he rescued him from hand their and he said not let us strike him life.
Ruben entendit et il le délivra de leurs mains. Il dit: « Ne le frappons pas à mort. »
22 And he said to them - Reuben may not you shed blood throw him into the pit this which [is] in the wilderness and a hand may not you stretch out on him so as to rescue him from hand their to restore him to father his.
Ruben leur dit: « Ne versez pas le sang; jetez-le dans cette citerne qui est dans le désert, et ne portez pas la main sur lui. » — Son dessein était de le délivrer de leurs mains, pour le faire retourner vers son père. —
23 And it was just when he came Joseph to brothers his and they stripped Joseph long garment his [the] long garment of the palms and soles which [was] on him.
Lorsque Joseph arriva auprès de ses frères, ils le dépouillèrent de sa robe, de la robe longue qu’il portait;
24 And they took him and they threw him the pit towards and the pit [was] empty there not in it [was] water.
et, l’ayant pris, ils le jetèrent dans la citerne. Cette citerne était vide: il n’y avait pas d’eau.
25 And they sat down to eat bread and they lifted up eyes their and they saw and there! a caravan of Ishmaelites [was] coming from Gilead and camels their [were] carrying spice and balm and myrrh traveling to take [them] down Egypt towards.
Puis ils s’assirent pour manger. Levant les yeux, ils virent, et voici qu’une caravane d’Ismaélites venait de Galaad; leurs chameaux étaient chargés d’astragale, de baume et de ladanum, qu’ils transportaient en Égypte.
26 And he said Judah to brothers his what? [is the] profit if we will kill brother our and we will conceal blood his.
Alors Juda dit à ses frères: « Que gagnerons-nous à tuer notre frère et à cacher son sang?
27 Come and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites and hand our may not it be on him for [is] brother our flesh our he and they listened brothers his.
Allons le vendre aux Ismaélites et ne portons pas la main sur lui; car il est notre frère, notre chair. » Ses frères l’écoutèrent
28 And they passed by men Midianite[s] traders and they drew and they brought up Joseph from the pit and they sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty silver and they brought Joseph Egypt towards.
et, quand les marchands madianites passèrent, ils tirèrent Joseph et le firent remonter de la citerne; et ils le vendirent pour vingt pièces d’argent aux Ismaélites, qui l’emmenèrent en Égypte.
29 And he returned Reuben to the pit and there! not Joseph [was] in the pit and he tore clothes his.
Ruben revint à la citerne, et voici que Joseph n’était plus dans la citerne.
30 And he returned to brothers his and he said the boy not [is] he and I where? [am] I going.
Il déchira ses vêtements et, étant retourné vers ses frères, il dit: « L’enfant n’y est plus, et moi, où irai-je? »
31 And they took [the] long garment of Joseph and they slaughtered a male goat of goats and they dipped the long garment in the blood.
Ils prirent alors la robe de Joseph et, ayant tué un bouc, ils plongèrent la robe dans le sang.
32 And they sent [the] long garment of the palms and soles and they brought [it] to father their and they said this we have found investigate please ¿ [the] long garment of son your [is] it or? not.
Et ils envoyèrent à leur père la longue robe, en lui faisant dire: « Voilà ce que nous avons trouvé; reconnais si c’est la robe de ton fils, ou non. »
33 And he recognized it and he said [it is] [the] long garment of son my an animal wild it has eaten him certainly he has been torn to pieces Joseph.
Jacob la reconnut et dit: « C’est la robe de mon fils! Une bête féroce l’a dévoré! Joseph a été mis en pièces! »
34 And he tore Jacob clothes his and he put sackcloth on loins his and he mourned on son his days many.
Et il déchira ses vêtements, mit un sac sur ses reins et fit le deuil de son fils pendant longtemps.
35 And they arose all sons his and all daughters his to comfort him and he refused to be comforted and he said that I will go down to son my mourning Sheol towards and he wept for him father his. (Sheol h7585)
Tous ses fils et toutes ses filles vinrent pour le consoler; mais il refusa d’être consolé; il disait: « Je descendrai dans le deuil vers mon fils au séjour des morts. » Et son père le pleura. (Sheol h7585)
36 (And the Medanites *LE) they sold him into Egypt to Potiphar an official of Pharaoh [the] commander of the bodyguards.
Les Madianites le vendirent en Égypte à Putiphar, officier de Pharaon, chef des gardes.
