Hebrews 5
1 Every [Jewish] Supreme Priest was chosen by [God] {[God] chose every [Jewish] Supreme Priest} from among [ordinary] men. They were appointed {[He] appointed them} in order that they would come before him on behalf of the people. [Specifically, God appointed them] in order that they would bring gifts [to him on behalf of the people], and in order to sacrifice [animals to him] for people who sinned.
Tout grand-prêtre, pris parmi les hommes, est établi pour le bien des hommes, pour régler leurs relations avec Dieu; dans ce but, il offre des oblations et des sacrifices pour les péchés;
2 The Supreme Priests could deal gently with those who ignorantly sinned, since the Supreme Priests themselves tended to sin easily.
il peut être indulgent pour les ignorants et les égarés, puisque lui aussi est sujet à la faiblesse.
3 As a result, they had to offer something to God for their own sins, just like [they had to offer something to God] for [other] people who sinned.
Aussi est-il tenu à des sacrifices expiatoires aussi bien pour lui-même que pour le peuple.
4 Furthermore, [it is an honor to be a Supreme Priest] so no one honors himself [by appointing himself to become a Supreme Priest]. Instead, God chose each man [to become a Supreme Priest], as he chose Aaron [to be the first Supreme Priest].
De plus, on ne s'arroge pas soi-même cette dignité; c'est Dieu qui vous y appelle, comme il fit pour Aaron.
5 Similarly, Christ also did not honor himself by appointing himself to become a Supreme Priest. Instead, God [appointed him by] saying to [him what he never said to any other priest, what the] Psalmist wrote in the Scriptures, You [(sg)] are my Son! Today I have declared that I am your Father!
Ainsi le Christ: il ne s'est pas arrogé lui-même la gloire d'être grand-prêtre, mais Dieu lui a dit: «Tu es mon Fils, Je t'ai engendré aujourd'hui!»
6 And he also said [to Christ what the Psalmist wrote] in another Scripture passage, You are a priest eternally just like Melchizedek was a priest. (aiōn g165)
et dans un autre passage: «Tu es prêtre à tout jamais Selon l'ordre de Melchisédek.» (aiōn g165)
7 When Christ lived on the earth [MTY], he prayed [DOU] to God and tearfully cried out loudly to him. [Specifically], he asked [God], who was able to help him, that he would not [fear the sufferings just before] he died. As a result, God listened to him, because Christ reverently submitted [to what God wanted him to do].
Lui qui, pendant sa vie sur la terre, a offert, à celui qui pouvait le délivrer de la mort, des prières et des supplications en jetant de grands cris et en versant des larmes, lui qui a été exaucé à cause de sa piété
8 Although Christ is [God’s own Son], he learned to obey [God] by suffering [before he died].
(il était Fils, et cependant par ses souffrances il a appris l'obéissance),
9 By becoming (all [that] God intended him to be/perfect), [he has now] become fully qualified [to be our Supreme Priest. As a result, he is the one who saves] eternally all who obey him. (aiōnios g166)
arrivé alors au plus haut point de la perfection, il est devenu pour tous ceux qui lui obéissent l'auteur d'un salut, éternel, (aiōnios g166)
10 Furthermore, God has designated him to be [our] Supreme Priest in the way that Melchizedek was a Supreme Priest.
ayant été proclamé par Dieu grand-prêtre «selon l'ordre de Melchisédek».
11 Although there is much to say [to you(pl)] about [how Christ resembles Melchizedek], this is hard [for me] to explain [to you] because you now understand things so slowly.
C'est un sujet sur lequel nous avons beaucoup à dire et des choses difficiles à expliquer, parce que vous êtes lents à comprendre.
12 [You became Christians long ago. So] by now you should be teaching [spiritual truths to others]. But you still need someone to teach you again the truths that God has revealed. [I am talking about] the truths that we teach people [when they] first [believe in Christ]. You need [those elementary truths] like babies need milk [MET]. You are not [ready for advanced teaching, which is like] the solid food [which mature people need] [MET].
Il y a longtemps que vous devriez être des maîtres, et vous avez encore besoin qu'on vous apprenne les premiers éléments des révélations de Dieu; vous en êtes à avoir besoin de lait au lieu d'une nourriture solide.
13 Remember that those [who are still learning these elementary truths] [MET] have not become familiar with [what God] says concerning becoming/being righteous. They are [just like] [MET] babies [who need] milk!
Celui qui en est encore au lait ne comprend pas un enseignement complet; il n'est qu'un enfant.
14 But [the more advanced spiritual truth] is for people who are [spiritually] mature, just like [MET] solid food is for [people who are physically] mature. They can tell the difference between what is good and what is evil, because they have trained themselves [to keep doing that].
La nourriture solide est pour les hommes faits, pour ceux qui ont acquis par la pratique un sens exercé à discerner le vrai du faux.
