Exodus 2	Exode 2
Exodus 2:1 Now a man of the house of Levi took as his wife a daughter of Levi.	Exode 2:1 Un homme de la maison de Lévi avait pris pour femme une fille de Lévi.
Exodus 2:2 And she became with child and gave birth to a Son; and when she saw that he was a beautiful child, she kept him secretly for three months.	Exode 2:2 Cette femme devint enceinte et enfanta un fils. Elle vit qu`il était beau, et elle le cacha pendant trois mois.
Exodus 2:3 And when she was no longer able to keep him secret, she made him a basket out of the stems of water-plants, pasting sticky earth over it to keep the water out; and placing the baby in it she put it among the plants by the edge of the Nile.	Exode 2:3 Ne pouvant plus le cacher, elle prit une caisse de jonc, qu`elle enduisit de bitume et de poix; elle y mit l`enfant, et le déposa parmi les roseaux, sur le bord du fleuve.
Exodus 2:4 And his sister took her place at a distance to see what would become of him.	Exode 2:4 La soeur de l`enfant se tint à quelque distance, pour savoir ce qui lui arriverait.
Exodus 2:5 Now Pharaoh's daughter came down to the Nile to take a bath, while her women were walking by the riverside; and she saw the basket among the river-plants, and sent her servant-girl to get it.	Exode 2:5 La fille de Pharaon descendit au fleuve pour se baigner, et ses compagnes se promenèrent le long du fleuve. Elle aperçut la caisse au milieu des roseaux, et elle envoya sa servante pour la prendre.
Exodus 2:6 And opening it, she saw the child, and he was crying. And she had pity on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.	Exode 2:6 Elle l`ouvrit, et vit l`enfant: c`était un petit garçon qui pleurait. Elle en eut pitié, et elle dit: C`est un enfant des Hébreux!
Exodus 2:7 Then his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, May I go and get you one of the Hebrew women to give him the breast?	Exode 2:7 Alors la soeur de l`enfant dit à la fille de Pharaon: Veux-tu que j`aille te chercher une nourrice parmi les femmes des Hébreux, pour allaiter cet enfant?
Exodus 2:8 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the girl went and got the child's mother.	Exode 2:8 Va, lui répondit la fille de Pharaon. Et la jeune fille alla chercher la mère de l`enfant.
Exodus 2:9 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Take the child away and give it milk for me, and I will give you payment. And the woman took the child and gave it milk at her breast.	Exode 2:9 La fille de Pharaon lui dit: Emporte cet enfant, et allaite-le-moi; je te donnerai ton salaire. La femme prit l`enfant, et l`allaita.
Exodus 2:10 And when the child was older, she took him to Pharaoh's daughter and he became her son, and she gave him the name Moses, Because, she said, I took him out of the water.	Exode 2:10 Quand il eut grandi, elle l`amena à la fille de Pharaon, et il fut pour elle comme un fils. Elle lui donna le nom de Moïse, car, dit-elle, je l`ai retiré des eaux.
Exodus 2:11 Now when Moses had become a man, one day he went out to his people and saw how hard their work was; and he saw an Egyptian giving blows to a Hebrew, one of his people.	Exode 2:11 En ce temps-là, Moïse, devenu grand, se rendit vers ses frères, et fut témoin de leurs pénibles travaux. Il vit un Égyptien qui frappait un Hébreu d`entre ses frères.
Exodus 2:12 And turning this way and that, and seeing no one, he put the Egyptian to death, covering his body with sand.	Exode 2:12 Il regarda de côté et d`autre, et, voyant qu`il n`y avait personne, il tua l`Égyptien, et le cacha dans le sable.
Exodus 2:13 And he went out the day after and saw two of the Hebrews fighting: and he said to him who was in the wrong, Why are you fighting your brother?	Exode 2:13 Il sortit le jour suivant; et voici, deux Hébreux se querellaient. Il dit à celui qui avait tort: Pourquoi frappes-tu ton prochain?
Exodus 2:14 And he said, Who made you a ruler and a judge over us? are you going to put me to death as you did the Egyptian? And Moses was in fear, and said, It is clear that the thing has come to light.	Exode 2:14 Et cet homme répondit: Qui t`a établi chef et juge sur nous? Penses-tu me tuer, comme tu as tué l`Égyptien? Moïse eut peur, et dit: Certainement la chose est connue.
Exodus 2:15 Now when Pharaoh had news of this, he would have put Moses to death. But Moses went in flight from Pharaoh into the land of Midian: and he took his seat by a water-spring.	Exode 2:15 Pharaon apprit ce qui s`était passé, et il cherchait à faire mourir Moïse. Mais Moïse s`enfuit de devant Pharaon, et il se retira dans le pays de Madian, où il s`arrêta près d`un puits.
Exodus 2:16 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came to get water for their father's flock.	Exode 2:16 Le sacrificateur de Madian avait sept filles. Elle vinrent puiser de l`eau, et elles remplirent les auges pour abreuver le troupeau de leur père.
Exodus 2:17 And the keepers of the sheep came up and were driving them away; but Moses got up and came to their help, watering their flock for them.	Exode 2:17 Les bergers arrivèrent, et les chassèrent. Alors Moïse se leva, prit leur défense, et fit boire leur troupeau.
Exodus 2:18 And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that you have come back so quickly today?	Exode 2:18 Quand elles furent de retour auprès de Réuel, leur père, il dit: Pourquoi revenez-vous si tôt aujourd`hui?
Exodus 2:19 And they said, An Egyptian came to our help against the keepers of sheep and got water for us and gave it to the flock.	Exode 2:19 Elles répondirent: Un Égyptien nous a délivrées de la main des bergers, et même il nous a puisé de l`eau, et a fait boire le troupeau.
Exodus 2:20 And he said to his daughters, Where is he? why have you let the man go? make him come in and give him a meal.	Exode 2:20 Et il dit à ses filles: Où est-il? Pourquoi avez-vous laissé cet homme? Appelez-le, pour qu`il prenne quelque nourriture.
Exodus 2:21 And Moses was happy to go on living with the man; and he gave his daughter Zipporah to Moses.	Exode 2:21 Moïse se décida à demeurer chez cet homme, qui lui donna pour femme Séphora, sa fille.
Exodus 2:22 And she gave birth to a son, to whom he gave the name Gershom: for he said, I have been living in a strange land.	Exode 2:22 Elle enfanta un fils, qu`il appela du nom de Guerschom, car, dit-il, j`habite un pays étranger.
Exodus 2:23 Now after a long time the king of Egypt came to his end: and the children of Israel were crying in their grief under the weight of their work, and their cry for help came to the ears of God.	Exode 2:23 Longtemps après, le roi d`Égypte mourut, et les enfants d`Israël gémissaient encore sous la servitude, et poussaient des cris. Ces cris, que leur arrachait la servitude, montèrent jusqu`à Dieu.
Exodus 2:24 And at the sound of their weeping the agreement which God had made with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob came to his mind.	Exode 2:24 Dieu entendit leurs gémissements, et se souvint de son alliance avec Abraham, Isaac et Jacob.
Exodus 2:25 And God's eyes were turned to the children of Israel and he gave them the knowledge of himself.	Exode 2:25 Dieu regarda les enfants d`Israël, et il en eut compassion.
