Revelation 7
1 After these things, I saw four Angels standing above the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, so that they would not blow upon the earth, nor upon the sea, nor upon any tree.
Après cela je vis quatre Anges qui se tenaient aux quatre coins de la terre, et qui retenaient les quatre vents de la terre, afin qu'aucun vent ne soufflât sur la terre, ni sur la mer, ni sur aucun arbre.
2 And I saw another Angel ascending from the rising of the sun, having the Seal of the living God. And he cried out, in a great voice, to the four Angels to whom it was given to harm the earth and the sea,
Puis je vis un autre Ange qui montait du côté de l'Orient, tenant le sceau du Dieu vivant, et il cria à haute voix aux quatre Anges qui avaient eu ordre de nuire à la terre, et à la mer,
3 saying: “Do no harm to the earth, nor to the sea, nor to the trees, until we seal the servants of our God on their foreheads.”
[Et leur] dit: Ne nuisez point à la terre, ni à la mer, ni aux arbres, jusqu'à ce que nous ayons marqué les serviteurs de notre Dieu sur leurs fronts.
4 And I heard the number of those who were sealed: one hundred and forty-four thousand sealed, out of every tribe of the sons of Israel.
Et j'entendis que le nombre des marqués était de cent quarante-quatre mille, qui furent marqués de toutes les Tribus des enfants d'Israël.
5 From the tribe of Judah, twelve thousand were sealed. From the tribe of Reuben, twelve thousand were sealed. From the tribe of Gad, twelve thousand were sealed.
[Savoir] de la Tribu de Juda, douze mille marqués; de la Tribu de Ruben, douze mille marqués; de la Tribu de Gad, douze mille marqués;
6 From the tribe of Asher, twelve thousand were sealed. From the tribe of Naphtali, twelve thousand were sealed. From the tribe of Manasseh, twelve thousand were sealed.
De la Tribu d'Aser, douze mille marqués; de la Tribu de Nephthali, douze mille marqués; de la Tribu de Manassé, douze mille marqués;
7 From the tribe of Simeon, twelve thousand were sealed. From the tribe of Levi, twelve thousand were sealed. From the tribe of Issachar, twelve thousand were sealed.
De la Tribu de Siméon, douze mille marqués; de la Tribu de Lévi, douze mille marqués; de la Tribu d'Issachar, douze mille marqués;
8 From the tribe of Zebulun, twelve thousand were sealed. From the tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand were sealed. From the tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand were sealed.
De la Tribu de Zabulon, douze mille marqués; de la Tribu de Joseph, douze mille marqués; de la Tribu de Benjamin, douze mille marqués.
9 After these things, I saw a great crowd, which no one could number, from all the nations and tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and in sight of the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands.
Après cela, je regardai, et voici une grande multitude [de gens], que personne ne pouvait compter, de toutes nations, Tribus, peuples et Langues, lesquels se tenaient devant le trône, et en la présence de l'agneau, vêtus de longues robes blanches, et ayant des palmes en leurs mains;
10 And they cried out, with a great voice, saying: “Salvation is from our God, who sits upon the throne, and from the Lamb.”
Et ils criaient à haute voix, en disant: Le salut est de notre Dieu, qui est assis sur le trône, et de l'agneau.
11 And all the Angels were standing around the throne, with the elders and the four living creatures. And they fell upon their faces in view of the throne, and they worshipped God,
Et tous les Anges se tenaient autour du trône, et des Anciens, et des quatre animaux, et ils se prosternèrent devant le trône sur leurs faces, et adorèrent Dieu,
12 saying: “Amen. Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving, honor and power and strength to our God, forever and ever. Amen.” (aiōn g165)
En disant: Amen! louange, gloire, sagesse, actions de grâces, honneur, puissance et force soient à notre Dieu, aux siècles des siècles, Amen! (aiōn g165)
13 And one of the elders responded and said to me: “These ones who are clothed in white robes, who are they? And where did they come from?”
Alors un des Anciens prit la parole, et me dit: ceux-ci, qui sont vêtus de longues robes blanches, qui sont-ils, et d'où sont-ils venus?
14 And I said to him, “My lord, you know.” And he said to me: “These are the ones who have come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and have made them white by the blood of the Lamb.
Et je lui dis: Seigneur, tu le sais. Et il me dit: Ce sont ceux qui sont venus de la grande tribulation, et qui ont lavé et blanchi leurs longues robes dans le sang de l'agneau.
15 Therefore, they are before the throne of God, and they serve him, day and night, in his temple. And the One who sits upon the throne shall dwell over them.
C'est pourquoi ils sont devant le trône de Dieu, et ils le servent jour et nuit dans son Temple; et celui qui est assis sur le trône habitera avec eux.
16 They shall not hunger, nor shall they thirst, anymore. Neither shall the sun beat down upon them, nor any heat.
Ils n'auront plus de faim, ni de soif, et le soleil ne frappera plus sur eux, ni aucune chaleur.
17 For the Lamb, who is in the midst of the throne, will rule over them, and he will lead them to the fountains of the waters of life. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
Car l'agneau qui est au milieu du trône les paîtra, et les conduira aux vives fontaines des eaux; et Dieu essuiera toutes les larmes de leurs yeux.
