La Bible Ostervald

Néhémie 2:12

Puis je me levai, de nuit, moi et quelque peu de gens avec moi; mais je ne déclarai à personne ce que mon Dieu m'avait mis au cœur de faire à Jérusalem. Et il n'y avait pas avec moi d'autre monture que celle sur laquelle j'étais monté.

Darby's French Translation
Et je me levai de nuit, moi et le peu d'hommes qui étaient avec moi, -et je n'avais informé personne de ce que mon Dieu m'avait mis au coeur de faire pour Jérusalem-et je n'avais pas de bête avec moi, sinon la bête que je montais.
Louis Segond (1910)
Après quoi, je me levai pendant la nuit avec quelques hommes, sans avoir dit à personne ce que mon Dieu m'avait mis au coeur de faire pour Jérusalem. Il n'y avait avec moi d'autre bête de somme que ma propre monture.
La Bible David Martin (1744)
Puis je me levai de nuit, moi et quelque peu de gens avec moi; mais je ne déclarai à personne ce que mon Dieu m'avait mis au cœur de faire à Jérusalem; et il n'y avait point d'autre monture avec moi, que celle sur laquelle j'étais monté.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

I arose: Genesis 32:22-24, Joshua 10:9, Judges 6:27, Judges 9:32, Matthew 2:14

neither: Ecclesiastes 3:7, Amos 5:13, Micah 7:5, Matthew 10:16

my God: This pious and noble-minded man attributes every thing to God. If he purposed any good, it was because God put it into his heart; if he did or received any good, it was because the good hand of his God was upon him; if he expected any good, it was because he earnestly prayed God to remember him for good. Ezra 7:27, Psalms 51:18, Psalms 122:6, Jeremiah 31:33, Jeremiah 32:40, 2 Corinthians 8:16, James 1:16, James 1:17, Revelation 17:17

Reciprocal: Exodus 35:34 - he hath Ezra 1:5 - whose spirit Ezra 7:6 - according to Nehemiah 2:16 - the rulers Ecclesiastes 9:10 - thy hand John 13:2 - put Acts 23:24 - beasts

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And I arose in the might, I and some few men with me,.... Both the season of the night, and the small number of men to accompany him, were chosen for greater secrecy, that the business he came upon might not as yet be known, and so no schemes formed to obstruct or discourage:

neither told I any man what God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem; he was satisfied that what he had in view was from the Lord, who had stirred him up to it, but thought it prudent for the present to conceal it, until things were prepared to put it in execution:

neither was there any beast with me, save the beast that I rode upon; he only rode perhaps on a mule, being not yet recovered quite from the fatigue of his journey, and for the sake of honour; the rest went on foot, that there might be no noise made, and so pass on unheard and unobserved.
