Acts 12
1 At that [very] now time put forth Herod the king the hands to mistreat some of those of the church.
En ce même temps le Roi Hérode se mit à maltraiter quelques-uns de ceux de l'Eglise;
2 He executed then James the brother of John with the sword.
Et fit mourir par l'épée Jacques, frère de Jean.
3 (and *k*) Having seen (now *no*) that pleasing it is to the Jews, he proceeded to take also Peter — these were now (the *no*) days of the Unleavened [Bread] —
Et voyant que cela était agréable aux Juifs, il continua, en faisant prendre aussi Pierre.
4 whom also having seized he put in prison having delivered [him] to four sets of four soldiers to guard him, intending after the Passover to bring out him to the people.
Or c'étaient les jours des pains sans levain. Et quand il l'eut fait prendre, il le mit en prison, et le donna à garder à quatre bandes, de quatre soldats chacune, le voulant produire au supplice devant le peuple, après la [fête de] Pâque.
5 Indeed therefore Peter was kept in the prison; prayer however was (fervently *N(k)O*) being made by the church to God (concerning *N(k)O*) him.
Ainsi Pierre était gardé dans la prison; mais l'Eglise faisait sans cesse des prières à Dieu pour lui.
6 When then was about (to bring forth *N(k)(o)*) him Herod, in the night that [one] was Peter sleeping between two soldiers bound with chains two, guards also before the door were watching the prison.
Or dans le temps qu'Hérode était prêt de l'envoyer au supplice, cette nuit-là même Pierre dormait entre deux soldats, lié de deux chaînes; et les gardes qui étaient devant la porte, gardaient la prison.
7 And behold an angel of [the] Lord stood by and a light shone in the cell; Having struck then the side of Peter he woke up him saying; do rise up with speed. And fell of him the chains off the hands.
Et voici, un Ange du Seigneur survint, et une lumière resplendit dans la prison, et [l'Ange] frappant le côté de Pierre, le réveilla, en lui disant: Lève-toi légère- ment. Et les chaînes tombèrent de ses mains.
8 Said (then *N(k)O*) the angel to him; (do dress yourself *N(K)O*) and do yourself put on the sandals of you. He did and so. And he says to him; do yourself wrap around the cloak of you and do follow me.
Et l'Ange lui dit: ceins-toi, et chausse tes souliers; ce qu'il fit. Puis il lui dit: jette ta robe sur toi, et me suis.
9 And having gone forth he was following (him; *k*) and not did know that real is what is happening through the angel, he was thinking however a vision to see.
Lui donc sortant, le suivit; mais il ne savait point que ce qui se faisait par l'Ange, fût réel, car il croyait voir quelque vision.
10 Having passed through then a first guard and a second they came to the gate iron which is leading into the city, which by itself (opened *N(k)O*) to them, And having gone out they went on through street one and immediately departed the angel from him.
Et quand ils eurent passé la première et la seconde garde, ils vinrent à la porte de fer, par où l'on va à la ville, et cette porte s'ouvrit à eux d'elle-même, et étant sortis, ils passèrent une rue, et subitement l'Ange se retira d'auprès de lui.
11 And Peter to himself having come said; Now I know truly that has sent forth (the *no*) Lord the angel of Him and delivered me out of [the] hand of Herod and all the expectation of the people of the Jews.
Alors Pierre étant revenu à soi dit: je sais à présent pour sûr que le Seigneur a envoyé son Ange, et qu'il m'a délivré de la main d'Hérode, et de toute l'attente du peuple Juif.
12 Having considered [it] also he came to the house (*no*) of Mary the mother of John who is called Mark, where were many gathered together and praying.
Et ayant considéré le tout, il vint à la maison de Marie, mère de Jean surnommé Marc, où plusieurs étaient assemblés, et faisaient des prières.
13 When was knocking then (*k*) (he *N(K)O*) [at] the door of the gate came a girl to answer named Rhoda;
Et quand il eut heurté à la porte du vestibule, une servante, nommée Rhode, vint pour écouter;
14 And having recognized the voice of Peter from joy not she opened the gate having run in but she reported to have been standing Peter before the gate.
Laquelle ayant connu la voix de Pierre, de joie n'ouvrit point le vestibule, mais elle courut dans la maison, et annonça que Pierre était devant la porte.
15 And to her they said; You rave. But she was insisting [it] so to be. And they were saying; The angel it is of him.
Et ils lui dirent: tu es folle. Mais elle assurait que ce qu'elle disait était vrai; et eux disaient: c'est son Ange.
16 But Peter was continuing knocking; having opened [it] then they saw him and were amazed.
Mais Pierre continuait à heurter; et quand ils eurent ouvert, ils le virent, et furent comme ravis hors d'eux-mêmes.
17 Having made a sign then to them with the hand to be silent, he related to them how the Lord him had brought out of the prison; He said (then; *N(k)O*) do report to James and to the brothers these things. And having gone out he went to another place.
Et lui leur ayant fait signe de la main qu'ils fissent silence, leur raconta comment le Seigneur l'avait fait sortir de la prison, et il leur dit: annoncez ces choses à Jacques et aux frères. Puis sortant de là il s'en alla en un autre lieu.
18 When was coming now day there was disturbance no small among the soldiers what then [of] Peter has become.
Mais le jour étant venu il y eut un grand trouble entre les soldats, [pour savoir] ce que Pierre était devenu.
19 Herod then having sought after him and not having found [him] having examined the guards he commanded [them] to be led away [to death], And having gone down from Judea to (*k*) Caesarea he was staying [there].
Et Hérode l'ayant cherché, et ne le trouvant point, après en avoir fait le procès aux gardes, il commanda qu'ils fussent menés au supplice. Puis il descendit de Judée à Césarée, où il séjourna.
20 He was now (*k*) (Herod *K*) furiously angry with [the] Tyrians and Sidonians; with one accord then they were coming to him And having gained Blastus who [was] over the bedchamber of the king they were seeking peace, because of being nourished their region by the king’s.
Or il était dans le dessein de faire la guerre aux Tyriens et aux Sidoniens; mais ils vinrent à lui d'un commun accord; et ayant gagné Blaste, qui était Chambel- lan du Roi, ils demandèrent la paix, parce que leur pays était nourri de celui du Roi.
21 On the appointed now day Herod having put on apparel royal and having sat on the throne was making an address to them.
Dans un jour marqué, Hérode, revêtu d'une robe royale, s'assit sur son trône, et les haranguait.
22 And the people were crying out; Of a god [this is the] voice and not of a man!
Sur quoi le peuple s'écria: Voix d'un Dieu, et non point d'un homme!
23 Immediately then struck him an angel of [the] Lord in return for that not he gave the glory to God, and having been eaten by worms he breathed his last.
Et à l'instant un Ange du Seigneur le frappa, parce qu'il n'avait point donné gloire à Dieu; et il fut rongé des vers, et rendit l'esprit.
24 But the word (of God *NK(O)*) was continuing to grow and was being multiplied.
Mais la parole de Dieu faisait des progrès et se répandait.
25 Barnabas then and Saul returned (to *N(K)O*) Jerusalem having fulfilled the mission, having taken with [them] (and *k*) John the [one] having been called Mark.
Barnabas aussi et Saul, après avoir achevé leur commission, s'en retournèrent de Jérusalem, ayant aussi pris avec eux Jean, qui était surnommé Marc.
