Daniel 8

KING JAMES BIBLE	JERUSALEM
1 In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, even unto me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first.	1 En l'an trois du règne du roi Balthazar, une vision m'apparut, à moi Daniel, après celle qui m'étaitapparue en premier.
2 And I saw in a vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was at Shushan in the palace, which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in a vision, and I was by the river of Ulai.	2 Je contemplais la vision, et tandis que je contemplais, je me trouvais à Suse, la place forte qui estdans la province d'Elam; et, contemplant la vision, je me trouvais à la porte de l'Ulaï.
3 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.	3 Je levai les yeux pour voir. Voici: un bélier se tenait devant la porte. Il avait deux cornes; les deuxcornes étaient hautes, mais l'une plus que l'autre, et la plus haute qui se dressa fut la seconde.
4 I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward; so that no beasts might stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and became great.	4 Je vis le bélier donner de la corne vers l'ouest, vers le nord et vers le sud. Nulle bête ne pouvait luirésister, rien ne pouvait lui échapper. Il faisait ce qui lui plaisait et devint puissant.
5 And as I was considering, behold, an he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes.	5 Voici ce que je discernai: un bouc vint de l'occident, ayant parcouru la terre entière mais sans toucherle sol, et le bouc avait une corne "magnifique" entre les yeux.
6 And he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had there seen standing before the river, and ran unto him in the fury of his power.	6 Il s'approcha du bélier aux deux cornes que j'avais vu se tenir devant la porte, et courut vers lui dansl'ardeur de sa force.
7 And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.	7 Je le vis atteindre et affronter le bélier: il était en rage contre lui et frappa le bélier, lui brisant lesdeux cornes, sans que le bélier eût la force de lui résister; il le jeta à terre et le foula aux pieds; personne n'était làpour délivrer le bélier.
8 Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven.	8 Le bouc devint très puissant, mais, en pleine force, la grande corne se brisa et à sa place se dressèrentquatre "magnifiques" à l'encontre des quatre vents du ciel.
9 And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land.	9 De l'une d'elles, de la petite, sortit une corne, mais qui grandit beaucoup dans la direction du sud etde l'orient et du Pays de Splendeur.
10 And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them.	10 Elle grandit jusqu'aux armées du ciel, précipita à terre des armées et des étoiles et les foula auxpieds.
11 Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.	11 Elle s'exalta même contre le Prince de l'armée, abolit le sacrifice perpétuel et renversa le fondementde son sanctuaire
12 And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised, and prospered.	12 et l'armée; sur le sacrifice elle posa l'iniquité et renversa à terre la vérité; elle agit et réussit.
13 Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?	13 J'entendis un saint qui parlait, et un autre saint dit à celui qui parlait: "Jusques à quand la vision: lesacrifice perpétuel, désolation de l'iniquité, sanctuaire et légion foulés aux pieds?"
14 And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.	14 Il lui dit: "Encore 2.300 soirs et matins, alors le sanctuaire sera revendiqué."
15 And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.	15 Moi, Daniel, contemplant cette vision, j'en cherchai l'intelligence. Voici, se tenant devant moi,quelqu'un qui avait l'aspect d'un homme.
16 And I heard a man's voice between the banks of Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.	16 J'entendis une voix d'homme, sur l'Ulaï, criant: "Gabriel, donne-lui l'intelligence de cette vision!"
17 So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision.	17 Il s'avança vers le lieu où je me tenais, et, comme il approchait, je fus saisi de terreur et tombai facecontre terre. Il me dit: "Fils d'homme, comprends: c'est le temps de la Fin que révèle la vision."
18 Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright.	18 Il parlait encore que je m'évanouis, la face contre terre. Il me toucha et me releva.
19 And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the last end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end shall be.	19 Il dit: "Voici, je vais te faire connaître ce qui viendra à la fin de la Colère, pour la Fin assignée.
20 The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.	20 Le bélier que tu as vu, ses deux cornes, ce sont les rois des Mèdes et des Perses.
21 And the rough goat is the king of Grecia: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.	21 Le bouc velu est le roi de Yavân, la grande corne qui est entre ses yeux, c'est le premier roi.
22 Now that being broken, whereas four stood up for it, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.	22 La corne brisée et les quatre cornes qui ont poussé à sa place, sont quatre royaumes issus de sanation mais qui n'auront pas sa force.
23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.	23 "Et au terme de leur règne, au temps de la plénitude de leurs péché, se lèvera un roi au visage fier,sachant pénétrer les énigmes.
24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.	24 Sa puissance croîtra en force, - mais non par sa propre puissance - il tramera des choses inouïes ilprospérera dans ses entreprises, il détruira des puissants et le peuple des saints.
25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.	25 Et, par son intelligence, la trahison réussira entre ses mains. Il s'exaltera dans son coeur et détruiraun grand nombre par surprise. Il s'opposera au Prince des Princes, mais - sans acte de main - il sera brisé.
26 And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days.	26 Elle est vraie, la vision des soirs et des matins qui a été dite, mais, toi, garde silence sur la vision,car il doit s'écouler bien des jours."
27 And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up, and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood it.	27 Alors, moi Daniel, je défaillis et je fus malade plusieurs jours. Puis je me levai, pour accomplir monoffice auprès du roi, gardant silence sur la vision, et demeurant sans la comprendre.
