¹ Mais il arrivera aux derniers jours, que la montagne de la maison de l'Eternel sera affermie au sommet des montagnes, et sera élevée par-dessus les coteaux; les peuples y aborderont.

² Et plusieurs nations iront, et diront : Venez, et montons à la montagne de l'Eternel, et à la maison du Dieu de Jacob; et il nous enseignera touchant ses voies, et nous marcherons dans ses sentiers; car la Loi sortira de Sion, et la parole de l'Eternel [sortira] de Jérusalem.

³ Il exercera jugement parmi plusieurs peuples, et il censurera fortement les grandes nations jusqu'aux pays les plus éloignés; et de leurs épées elles forgeront des hoyaux; et de leurs hallebardes, des serpes; une nation ne lèvera plus l'épée contre l'autre, et elles ne s'adonneront plus à la guerre.

⁴ Mais chacun s'assiéra sous sa vigne et sous son figuier, et il n'y aura personne qui les épouvante; car la bouche de l'Eternel des armées a parlé.

⁵ Certainement tous les peuples marcheront chacun au nom de son dieu; mais nous marcherons au nom de l'Eternel notre dieu à toujours et à perpétuité.

⁶ En ce temps-là, dit l'Eternel, j'assemblerai la boiteuse, et je recueillerai celle qui avait été chassée, et celle que j'avais affligée.

⁷ Et je mettrai la boiteuse, pour être un résidu, et celle qui était éloignée, pour être une nation robuste; l'Eternel régnera sur eux en la montagne de Sion dès cette heure-là à toujours.

⁸ Et toi, Tour du troupeau, Hophel, la fille de Sion viendra jusqu'à toi; et la première domination viendra, le Royaume, [dis-je], viendra à la fille de Jérusalem.

⁹ Pourquoi t'écries-tu maintenant si fort? N'y a-t-il point de Roi au milieu de toi? Ou ton conseiller est-il péri, que la douleur t'ait saisie comme de celle qui enfante?

¹⁰ Sois en travail, et crie, fille de Sion, comme celle qui enfante; car tu sortiras bientôt de la ville, et tu demeureras aux champs, et viendras jusqu'à Babylone; [mais] là tu seras délivrée; là l'Eternel te rachètera des mains de tes ennemis.

¹¹ Et maintenant se sont assemblées contre toi plusieurs nations qui disent : Qu'elle soit profanée, et que notre œil voie en Sion [ce qu'il y voudrait voir].

¹² Mais ils ne connaissent point les pensées de l'Eternel, et n'entendent point son conseil; car il les a assemblées comme des gerbes dans l'aire.

¹³ Lève-toi, et foule, fille de Sion, car je ferai que ta corne sera de fer, et je ferai que tes ongles seront d'airain; et tu menuiseras plusieurs peuples, et je dédierai comme un interdit leur gain à l'Eternel, et leurs biens au Seigneur de toute la terre.

¹ Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to Yahweh, and said, "I will sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously. The horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.

² Yah is my strength and song. He has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him; my father's God, and I will exalt him.

³ Yahweh is a man of war. Yahweh is his name.

⁴ He has cast Pharaoh's chariots and his army into the sea. His chosen captains are sunk in the Red Sea.

⁵ The deeps cover them. They went down into the depths like a stone.

⁶ Your right hand, Yahweh, is glorious in power. Your right hand, Yahweh, dashes the enemy in pieces.

⁷ In the greatness of your excellency, you overthrow those who rise up against you. You send forth your wrath. It consumes them as stubble.

⁸ With the blast of your nostrils, the waters were piled up. The floods stood upright as a heap. The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea.

⁹ The enemy said, 'I will pursue. I will overtake. I will divide the spoil. My desire shall be satisfied on them. I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.'

¹⁰ You blew with your wind. The sea covered them. They sank like lead in the mighty waters.

¹¹ Who is like you, Yahweh, among the gods? Who is like you, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

¹² You stretched out your right hand. The earth swallowed them.

¹³ "You, in your loving kindness, have led the people that you have redeemed. You have guided them in your strength to your holy habitation.

¹⁴ The peoples have heard. They tremble. Pangs have taken hold on the inhabitants of Philistia.

¹⁵ Then the chiefs of Edom were dismayed. Trembling takes hold of the mighty men of Moab. All the inhabitants of Canaan are melted away.

¹⁶ Terror and dread falls on them. By the greatness of your arm they are as still as a stone-- until your people pass over, Yahweh, until the people pass over who you have purchased.

¹⁷ You shall bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of your inheritance, the place, Yahweh, which you have made for yourself to dwell in; the sanctuary, Lord, which your hands have established.

¹⁸ Yahweh shall reign forever and ever."

¹⁹ For the horses of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and Yahweh brought back the waters of the sea on them; but the children of Israel walked on dry land in the midst of the sea.

²⁰ Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a tambourine in her hand; and all the women went out after her with tambourines and with dances.

²¹ Miriam answered them, "Sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously. The horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea."

²² Moses led Israel onward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.

²³ When they came to Marah, they couldn't drink from the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore its name was called Marah.

²⁴ The people murmured against Moses, saying, "What shall we drink?"

²⁵ Then he cried to Yahweh. Yahweh showed him a tree, and he threw it into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There he made a statute and an ordinance for them, and there he tested them;

²⁶ and he said, "If you will diligently listen to the voice of Yahweh your God, and will do that which is right in his eyes, and will pay attention to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you, which I have put on the Egyptians; for I am Yahweh who heals you."

²⁷ They came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water, and seventy palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters.
