Mark 14
1 It was only two days before the [people] ([celebrated/started to celebrate]) [for one week the] festival [which they called] Passover. During those days they also celebrated the festival of (Unleavened Bread/[eating] bread that had no yeast in it). The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws were planning how they could seize Jesus secretly. [They wanted to accuse him in front of the Roman authorities] so that they would execute him.
La fête de la Pâque et des pains sans levain devait avoir lieu deux jours après; et les principaux sacrificateurs et les scribes cherchaient comment ils pourraient s'emparer de Jésus par ruse et le faire mourir.
2 But they were saying to one another, “We must not [do it] during the celebration, because, [if we do it then], the people will [be very angry with us and] riot!”
Car ils disaient: Que ce ne soit pas pendant la fête, de peur qu'il n'y ait du tumulte parmi le peuple.
3 Jesus was at Bethany [town] in the house of Simon, whom [Jesus had healed from] leprosy. While they were eating, a woman came [to him]. [She was carrying] a stone jar that contained expensive [fragrant] perfume called nard. She opened the jar and then she poured the perfume on Jesus’ head.
Jésus se trouvait à Béthanie, dans la maison de Simon, le lépreux. Pendant qu'il était à table, une femme entra, portant un vase d'albâtre, plein d'une huile de nard pur, d'un grand prix. Ayant brisé le vase, elle répandit le parfum sur la tête de Jésus.
4 One of the people [who were present] became angry and said to the others, “([It is terrible that she] wasted that perfume!/[Why did she] waste that perfume?) [RHQ]
Quelques-uns s'en indignaient entre eux et disaient: Pourquoi perdre ainsi ce parfum?
5 It could have been sold {[We] could have sold it} for (a huge amount of money/an amount of money for which a person works for a year), and then [the money] could have been given {[we] could have given [the money]} to poor people!” So he rebuked her.
Car on pouvait le vendre plus de trois cents deniers et les donner aux pauvres. Ainsi ils murmuraient contre elle.
6 But Jesus said, “Stop [scolding] her! She has done to me what I [consider to be] very appropriate/delightful. So (you should not bother her!/why do you bother her?) [RHQ]
Mais Jésus dit: Laissez-la; pourquoi lui faites-vous de la peine? Elle a fait une bonne action à mon égard.
7 You will always have poor people among you. So you can help them whenever you want to. But I will not [be here among] you much longer. [So it is good for her to show now that she appreciates me].
Car vous avez toujours les pauvres avec vous, et, quand vous le voulez, vous pouvez leur faire du bien; mais moi, vous ne m'avez pas toujours.
8 [It is appropriate that] she has done what she was able to do. [It is as if she knew that I was going to die soon] and has anointed my body for their burying it.
Elle a fait ce qui était en son pouvoir; elle a d'avance oint mon corps pour ma sépulture.
9 I will tell you this: Wherever the good message [about me] is preached {people preach the good message} throughout the world, what she has done will be told {people will tell others what she has done [to me]}, and as a result people will remember her.”
En vérité, je vous le dis, partout où cet Évangile sera prêché, dans le monde entier, ce qu'elle a fait sera aussi raconté en mémoire d'elle.
10 Then Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]) went to the chief priests in order to [talk to them about] helping them to seize Jesus. He did that [even though] he was one of the twelve [disciples]
Alors Judas Iscariote, l'un des Douze, alla vers les principaux sacrificateurs pour leur livrer Jésus.
11 When they heard [what he was willing to do for them], they were very happy. They promised that they would give him [a large amount of] money [for doing that. Judas agreed, so they gave him the money]. As a result, he [began] watching for an opportunity (to betray Jesus/to enable Jesus’ enemies to seize him).
Ils l'écoutèrent avec joie et lui promirent de lui donner de l'argent; et Judas cherchait, une occasion favorable pour le livrer.
12 [Two days later], when they killed the lambs [for the] festival at the beginning of the week when [people ate] bread that had no yeast in it, Jesus’ disciples said to him, “Where do you want us to go and prepare the meal for the Passover [celebration] in order that you can eat it [with us]?”
Le premier jour des pains sans levain, où l'on immolait la Pâque, les disciples dirent à Jésus: Où veux-tu que nous allions te préparer le repas de la Pâque?
13 So he [chose] two of his disciples [to prepare everything]. He said to them, “Go into [Jerusalem] city. A man will meet you, who will be carrying a large jar full of water. Follow him.
Il envoya deux de ses disciples et leur dit: Allez à la ville. Vous rencontrerez un homme portant une cruche d'eau; suivez-le,
14 When he enters [a house], say to the man who owns the house, ‘[Our] teacher wants us to prepare [the meal of] the Passover celebration so that he can eat it with us his disciples. (Please show us the room that he [arranged with you about]./Where is the room that he [arranged with you about]?) [RHQ]’
et là où il entrera, vous direz au maître de la maison: Le Maître dit: Où est la salle dans laquelle je mangerai la Pâque avec mes disciples?
15 He will show you a large room that is on the upper floor [of the house]. It will be furnished and ready [for us to eat a meal in it]. Then prepare the meal there for us.”
Il vous montrera lui-même une grande chambre haute, meublée et toute prête; préparez-nous là ce qu'il faut.
16 So the [two] disciples left. They went into the city and found [everything] to be just like he had told them. They prepared the [meal for] the Passover [celebration, and then returned to Jesus and the other disciples].
Les disciples partirent donc et allèrent à la ville; ils trouvèrent les choses comme Jésus le leur avait dit, et ils préparèrent la Pâque.
17 When it was evening, Jesus arrived [at that house] with the twelve [disciples].
Le soir, il vint avec les Douze.
18 As they were all sitting there [and eating], Jesus said, “Listen carefully to this: One of you will enable my enemies to seize me. Specifically, it is one of you who [will do this in spite of the fact that he] is eating with me [right now]!”
Et comme ils étaient à table et qu'ils mangeaient, Jésus dit: En vérité, je vous le déclare, l'un de vous, qui mange avec moi, me trahira.
19 The disciples became very sad and they said to him one by one, “Surely (it is not I!/I am not the one, am I?) [RHQ]”
Alors ils devinrent tout tristes, et ils lui dirent, l'un après l'autre: Est-ce moi?
20 Then he said to them, “It is one of [you] twelve [disciples], the one who is dipping [bread] into the [sauce in the] dish along with me.
Il leur répondit: C'est l'un des Douze, celui qui met la main au plat avec moi.
21 It is certain that [I], the one who came from heaven, will [die], because that is what has been {what [the prophets] have} written about me. But there will be terrible [punishment] for the man by whom I will be betrayed {who will (betray me/help my enemies to seize me)}! In fact, it would be better for that man if he had never been born!”
Le Fils de l'homme s'en va, suivant ce qui a été écrit à son sujet; mais malheur à l'homme par qui le Fils de l'homme est trahi! Mieux vaudrait pour cet homme-là qu'il ne fût jamais né.
22 While they were eating, he took [a flat loaf of] bread and thanked God for it. Then he broke it [into pieces] and gave it to them and said to them, “This [bread represents] [MET] my body. Take it [and eat it].”
Pendant qu'ils mangeaient, Jésus prit du pain; et, après avoir rendu grâces, il le rompit, le leur donna, et il dit: Prenez, ceci est mon corps.
23 Afterwards, he took a cup [that contained wine] and thanked [God for it]. Then he gave it to them, and then, as they all drank from it,
Ayant aussi pris la coupe et rendu grâces, il la leur donna, et ils en burent tous.
24 he said to them, “This [wine represents] [MET] my blood, which is about to be shed {which is about to flow from my body} [when my enemies kill me]. With this blood I [will sign] the agreement [that God has made to forgive the sins of] many people.
Puis il leur dit: Ceci est mon sang, le sang de l'alliance, qui est répandu pour plusieurs.
25 I want you to know this: I will not drink any more wine in this way until the time when I drink it with a new [meaning] when I begin to rule as a king.”
En vérité, je vous le déclare, je ne boirai plus de ce fruit de la vigne, jusqu'au jour où je le boirai nouveau dans le royaume de Dieu.
26 After they sang a hymn, they went out toward Olive [Tree] Hill.
Après avoir chanté les psaumes, ils sortirent pour aller à la montagne des Oliviers.
27 [While they were on their way], Jesus said to them, “It has been {[The prophets] have} written [in the Scriptures that God said about me], ‘I will kill the shepherd and his sheep will scatter.’ [Those words will come true. When they are about to capture me], all of you will leave me and run away.
Et Jésus leur dit: Vous allez tous avoir une occasion de chute; car il est écrit: «Je frapperai le berger, et les brebis seront dispersées.»
28 But after I have been made {[God] has made me} alive again, I will go ahead of you to Galilee [district and meet you there].”
Mais, après que je serai ressuscité, je vous précéderai en Galilée.
29 Then Peter said to him, “Perhaps all the [other disciples] will leave you, but not I! I will not [leave you]!”
Pierre lui dit: Quand tu serais pour tous une occasion de chute, tu ne le seras jamais pour moi.
30 Then Jesus said to him, “The truth is that this very night, before the rooster crows a second time, you yourself will deny three times [that you know] me!”
Jésus lui répondit: En vérité, je te déclare que toi, aujourd'hui, cette nuit même, avant que le coq ait chanté deux fois, tu me renieras trois fois.
31 But Peter replied strongly, “Even if they kill me [as I defend] you, I will never deny [that I know] you!” And all [the other disciples] said the same thing.
Mais Pierre disait encore plus fortement: Quand même il me faudrait mourir avec toi, je ne te renierai point. Et tous les autres disaient la même chose.
32 [On the way], Jesus and the disciples came to the place that [people] call Gethsemane. Then he said to [some/eight of] his disciples, “Stay here while I pray!”
Ils allèrent ensuite dans un lieu appelé Gethsémané. Et Jésus dit à ses disciples: Asseyez-vous ici, jusqu'à ce que j'aie prié.
33 Then he took Peter, James, and John with him. He became extremely distressed, and he said to them,
Alors il prit avec lui Pierre, Jacques et Jean, et il commença à être saisi de frayeur et à être étreint par l'angoisse.
34 “I [SYN] am very sorrowful. [It is as if] I were about to die. [You men] remain here and stay awake!”
Il leur dit: Mon âme est triste jusqu'à la mort; demeurez ici et veillez.
35 He went a bit further and threw himself on the ground. Then he prayed that if it were possible, he would not [have to suffer] [MTY].
Puis, étant allé un peu plus loin, il se prosternait contre terre et priait, demandant que, s'il était possible, cette heure s'éloignât de lui.
36 He said, “O my Father, [because] you are able to do everything, rescue me so that I do not have to suffer [now] [MTY]! But do not [do] what I want. Instead, [do] what you want!”
Il disait: Abba, Père, toutes choses te sont possibles; détourne de moi cette coupe; toutefois, non ce que je veux, mais ce que tu veux.
37 Then he returned and found his [disciples] sleeping. He [woke them up and] said, “Simon! ([I am disappointed that] you fell asleep and that you were not able to stay awake for just a short time!/[Why is it that] you fell asleep and that you were not able to stay awake for just one hour?) [RHQ]”
Puis il revint et les trouva endormis; et il dit à Pierre: Simon, tu dors! Tu n'as pu veiller une heure?
38 [And he said to them], “You want [to do what I say], but you are not strong enough [MTY] [to actually do it]. So keep awake and pray in order that you can resist when [something like this] tempts you!”
Veillez et priez, afin que vous ne tombiez pas dans la tentation; l'esprit est plein de bonne volonté, mais la chair est faible.
39 Then he went away again and prayed again what he prayed before.
Il s'en alla de nouveau, et il pria, disant les mêmes paroles.
40 When he returned, he found that they were sleeping again because they were [so] sleepy that they could not keep their eyes open. [Because they were ashamed], they did not know what to say to him [when he awakened them].
Étant revenu, il les trouva encore endormis; car leurs yeux étaient appesantis. Et ils ne savaient que lui répondre.
41 [Then he went and prayed again]. He returned a third time; [and he found them sleeping again]. He [woke] all of [them and] said to them, “([I am disappointed that you are] sleeping again!/[Why are you] sleeping again?) [RHQ] [You have slept] enough. The time [for me to suffer] is about to begin. Look! Someone is about to enable sinful men to seize me, the one who came from heaven.
Il revint pour la troisième fois, et il leur dit: Vous dormez maintenant, et vous vous reposez! C'est assez; l'heure est venue! Le Fils de l'homme va être livré entre les mains des pécheurs.
42 [So] get up! Let’s go [toward him] Look! Here comes the one who is enabling them to seize me!”
Levez-vous, allons! Voici que celui qui me trahit s'approche.
43 While he was still speaking, Judas [arrived]. [Even though he was] one of [Jesus’] twelve [disciples], he came [to enable Jesus’ enemies to seize him]. A crowd who carried swords and clubs was with him. The [leaders of] the Jewish Council had sent them.
Aussitôt, comme Jésus parlait encore, Judas, l'un des Douze, survint, et avec lui une grande troupe de gens armés d'épées et de bâtons, envoyés par les principaux sacrificateurs, les scribes et les anciens.
44 [Judas], who was (betraying Jesus/helping Jesus’ enemies to seize him), had [previously] told this crowd, “The man whom I kiss is the one [whom you want. When I kiss him], seize him and lead him away [while you guard him] carefully.”
Or, celui qui le trahissait était convenu avec eux de ce signe: Celui à qui je donnerai un baiser, c'est lui; saisissez-le, et emmenez-le sous bonne garde.
45 So, when Judas arrived, he immediately went to Jesus and said, “My teacher!” Then he kissed Jesus [on his neck/cheek].
Aussitôt donc que Judas fut arrivé, il s'approcha de lui et lui dit: Maître! Et il lui donna un baiser.
46 Then [the crowd] seized Jesus.
Alors ils mirent la main sur Jésus et le saisirent.
47 But one of the [disciples] who was standing nearby drew his short sword. He struck the servant of the high priest with it [to kill him, but he only] cut off his ear.
Un de ceux qui étaient là tira son épée, en frappa le serviteur du souverain sacrificateur, et il lui emporta l'oreille.
48 Jesus said to them, “([It is ridiculous that] you come [here to seize] me with swords and clubs, as if I were a bandit!/Have you come [here to seize] me with swords and clubs, as if I were a bandit [RHQ]?) Day after day I was with you in the Temple [courtyard] teaching [the people] Why did you not seize me then? [But this is happening] in order that [what the prophets have written in] the Scriptures [about me] may be fulfilled {may happen}.”
Jésus, prenant la parole, leur dit: Vous êtes sortis avec des épées et des bâtons pour me prendre, comme si j'étais un brigand.
J'étais tous les jours au milieu de vous, enseignant dans le temple, et vous ne m'avez pas arrêté; mais cela est arrivé, afin que les Écritures fussent accomplies.
50 All [the disciples at once] left him and ran away.
Alors tous l'abandonnèrent et s'enfuirent.
51 At that time, (a young man/I) was following Jesus. He/[I was] wearing only a linen cloth around his/my body. The crowd seized him/me.
Il y avait un jeune homme qui le suivait, n'ayant qu'un drap sur le corps; et ils le saisirent.
52 But, [as he/I pulled away from them], he/I left behind the linen cloth [in their hands], and then he/I ran away naked.
Mais lui, laissant le drap, s'échappa nu de leurs mains.
53 The men [who had seized] Jesus led him away to [the house where] the supreme priest [lived]. All of the Jewish Council were gathering [there].
Ils emmenèrent Jésus chez le souverain sacrificateur, où se réunirent tous les principaux sacrificateurs, les anciens et les scribes.
54 Peter followed Jesus at a distance. He went into the courtyard [of the house] where the supreme priest [lived], and sat there with the men who guarded [the house of the supreme priest]. He was warming himself beside a fire.
Pierre le suivit de loin jusque dans la cour intérieure du souverain sacrificateur; et, s'étant assis auprès du feu avec les gardes, il se chauffait.
55 The chief priests and all the rest of the Jewish council [had already] tried to find people who would tell lies about Jesus [in order that they could convince the Roman authorities] to execute him. But they did not succeed,
Or, les principaux sacrificateurs et tout le Sanhédrin cherchaient quelque témoignage contre Jésus pour le faire mourir, et ils n'en trouvaient point.
56 because, although many people spoke lies about him, they contradicted each other.
Car plusieurs portaient de faux témoignages contre lui; mais leurs dépositions ne s'accordaient pas.
57 [Finally], some stood up and accused him falsely by saying,
Alors quelques-uns se levèrent, qui portèrent contre lui ce faux témoignage:
58 “We heard him when he said, ‘I will destroy this Temple that was built by men, and then within three days I will build another temple (without help from anyone else/that human hands will not build).’”
Nous lui avons entendu dire: Je détruirai ce temple, fait de main d'homme, et en trois jours j'en bâtirai un autre, qui ne sera pas fait de main d'homme.
59 But, what [some of] these men said also did not agree with [what others of them said].
Mais, même sur ce point, leurs témoignages ne s'accordaient pas.
60 Then the supreme priest [himself] stood up in front of them and said to Jesus, “Are you not going to reply? What [do you say about] all the things that they are saying in order to accuse you?”
Alors le souverain sacrificateur se levant au milieu de l'assemblée, interrogea Jésus et lui dit: Ne réponds-tu rien à ce que ces hommes déposent contre toi?
61 But Jesus was silent and did not reply [DOU]. Then the supreme priest [tried again]. He asked him, “Are you the Messiah? [Do you say that you are] (the Son of God/the man who is also God)?”
Mais Jésus garda le silence et ne répondit rien. Le souverain sacrificateur l'interrogea encore, et lui dit: C'est toi qui es le Christ, le Fils du Dieu béni?
62 Jesus said, “I am. Furthermore, you will see me, the one who came from heaven, [ruling] beside God, who is completely powerful. [You will also see me] coming down through the clouds in the sky!”
Jésus lui dit: Je le suis! Vous verrez le Fils de l'homme assis à la droite de la puissance de Dieu, et venant au milieu des nuées du ciel.
63 [In response to Jesus’ words], the supreme priest tore his outer garment. [That was their custom to show that he was shocked that Jesus had said that he was equal to God]. Then he said, “We certainly do not [RHQ] need any [more] people who will testify [against this man],
Alors le souverain sacrificateur déchira ses vêtements et dit: Qu'avons-nous encore besoin de témoins?
64 [because] you have heard what he said against God! [He claimed to be equal with God] Therefore, what have you decided?” They all said that Jesus was guilty and deserved (to be executed/that they should kill him).
Vous avez entendu le blasphème? Que vous en semble? Tous le déclarèrent coupable et digne de mort.
65 Then some of them began spitting on Jesus. They put a blindfold on him, and then they began striking him and saying to him, “[If you are] a prophet, tell us [who hit you]!” And those who were guarding Jesus struck him with their hands.
Quelques-uns se mirent à cracher sur lui, à lui couvrir le visage et à lui donner des coups de poing; et ils lui disaient: Prophétise! Et les gardes lui donnaient des coups de bâton.
66 While Peter was outside in the courtyard [of the supreme priest’s house], one of the girls who worked for the supreme priest came [near him].
Comme Pierre était en bas dans la cour, l'une des servantes du souverain sacrificateur y vint;
67 When she saw Peter warming himself [beside the fire], she looked at him [closely]. Then she said, “You also were with Jesus, that man from Nazareth [town]!”
et, voyant Pierre qui se chauffait, elle le regarda et lui dit: Toi aussi, tu étais avec Jésus de Nazareth!
68 But he denied it by saying, “I do not know or understand [DOU] what you are talking about!” Then he went away [from there] to the gate [of the courtyard].
Mais il le nia et dit: Je ne sais pas, je ne comprends pas ce que tu veux dire. Puis il s'en alla dans le vestibule, et le coq chanta.
69 [The] servant girl saw him there and said to the people who were standing nearby, “This man is one of [those who have been with that man they arrested].”
Cette servante, l'ayant vu, se mit encore à dire à ceux qui étaient présents: Cet homme est bien de ces gens-là!
70 But he denied it again. After a little while, one of those who were standing there said to Peter again, “[The way you speak shows that] you also are from Galilee [district]. So it is certain that you are one of those [who accompanied Jesus!]”
Mais il le nia de nouveau. Un peu après, ceux qui étaient présents dirent à Pierre: Assurément, tu es de ces gens-là; car tu es Galiléen.
71 But he began to exclaim, “I do not know the man that you are talking about! Because God knows that I am speaking truthfully, may he punish me [if I am lying]!”
Alors il se mit à proférer des malédictions accompagnées de serments, en disant: Je ne connais point cet homme dont vous parlez!
72 Immediately the rooster crowed a second time. Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said to him [before], “Before the rooster crows a second time, you will deny three times [that you know me.” When he realized that he had denied it three times], he started crying.
Aussitôt, le coq chanta pour la seconde fois; et Pierre se ressouvint de la parole que Jésus lui avait dite: Avant que le coq ait chanté deux fois, tu me renieras trois fois. Et à cette pensée, il se mit à pleurer.
