Mark 3
1 [On another] ([Sabbath/Jewish day of rest]), Jesus entered (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place) again. There was a man there whose hand was shriveled.
Puis il entra encore dans la Synagogue, et il y avait là un homme qui avait une main sèche.
2 [Some men of the Pharisee sect] watched him carefully in order to see whether he would heal the man (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day). They did this in order that [if he healed the man], they would accuse him of disobeying [their Jewish laws, because he worked] ([on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]).
Et ils l'observaient, pour voir s'il le guérirait le [jour du] Sabbat, afin de l'accuser.
3 Jesus said to the man whose hand was shriveled, “Stand up here in front of everyone!” [So the man stood up].
Et [Jésus] dit à l'homme qui avait la main sèche: lève-toi, et [te place] là au milieu.
4 Then Jesus said [to the Pharisees], “Do the laws [that God gave Moses] permit people to do good ([on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]), or do they permit people to do evil? Specifically, do his laws permit us to save a person’s life (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), or [do they permit us] to let him die [by refusing to help him]?” But they did not reply.
Puis il leur dit: est-il permis de faire du bien [les jours] de Sabbat, ou de faire du mal? de sauver une personne, ou de la tuer? mais ils se turent.
5 He looked around at them angrily. He was very distressed that they were stubbornly [not wanting to help the man]. So he said to the man, “Reach out your hand!” When the man reached out his withered hand, his hand became all right again!
Alors les regardant de tous côtés avec indignation, et étant tout ensemble affligé de l'endurcissement de leur cœur, il dit à cet homme: étends ta main; et il l'étendit; et sa main fut rendue saine comme l'autre.
6 Then the Pharisees [decided to get rid of Jesus. So] after they left [the meeting house], they [immediately met with some of] the Jews who supported Herod [Antipas, who ruled Galilee district]. Together they planned how they could kill Jesus.
Alors les Pharisiens étant sortis, ils consultèrent contre lui avec les Hérodiens, comment ils feraient pour le perdre.
7 Jesus and his disciples left [that] town and went to an area further along [Galilee Lake in order to get away from the people]. But a great crowd of people followed him. They were people who came from Galilee [district],
Mais Jésus se retira avec ses Disciples vers la mer, et une grande multitude le suivit de Galilée, et de Judée, et de Jérusalem, et d'Idumée, et de delà le Jourdain.
8 from Jerusalem [city], from [other towns of] Judea [district], from Idumea [district], from [the region on] the [east] side of the Jordan [River], and from [the region] around Tyre and Sidon [cities]. This great crowd of people came to him because they heard about what he was doing.
Et ceux des environs de Tyr et de Sidon, ayant entendu les grandes choses qu'il faisait, vinrent vers lui en grand nombre.
9 Because he had healed many people, many [other] people who had various illnesses pushed forward in order that by touching him [they would come well]. So he told his disciples that they should get a small boat ready for him [to get in and teach from it]. He wanted to do this in order that the crowd would not crush him [when they pushed forward to touch him].
Et il dit à ses Disciples, qu'une petite nacelle ne bougeât point de là pour le servir, à cause des troupes, afin qu'elles ne le pressassent point.
Car il en avait guéri beaucoup, de sorte que tous ceux qui étaient affligés de quelque fléau, se jetaient sur lui, pour le toucher.
11 Whenever the evil spirits saw Jesus, [they caused the people whom they controlled] to fall down in front of Jesus [in recognition of Jesus’ power]. Then they exclaimed, “You are (the Son of God/the man who is also God)!”
Et les esprits immondes, quand ils le voyaient, se prosternaient devant lui, et s'écriaient, en disant: tu es le Fils de Dieu.
12 He commanded the [evil spirits] strongly that they should not tell anyone who he was.
Mais il leur défendait avec de grandes menaces de le faire connaître.
13 Jesus went [with many other people] up into the hills. After he picked out [from among them] the men whom he wanted [to accompany him], they came [close] to him.
Puis il monta sur une montagne, et appela ceux qu'il voulut, et ils vinrent à lui.
14 He appointed twelve men in order that they might be with him and in order that he might send them out to preach. He called them apostles.
Et il en ordonna douze pour être avec lui, et pour les envoyer prêcher;
15 He also gave them power in order that they might expel evil spirits [from people].
Et afin qu'ils eussent la puissance de guérir les maladies, et de chasser les démons hors [des possédés].
16 These were the twelve men he appointed: Simon, to whom he gave the [new] name Peter; his [younger] brother Andrew;
[Et ce sont ici les noms de ces douze], Simon qu'il surnomma Pierre.
17 James, [the son] of Zebedee, and John, the [younger] brother of James, to [both of] whom he added the [new] name, ‘Men who are like Thunder’. [because of their fiery zeal];
Et Jacques fils de Zébédée, et Jean, frère de Jacques, auxquels il donna le nom de Boanergès, qui veut dire, fils de tonnerre.
18 Philip; Bartholomew; Levi, whose other name was Matthew; Thomas; [another] James, the son of Alphaeus; Thaddeus; [another] Simon, who was a [member of the party that wanted] to overthrow [the Roman government];
Et André, et Philippe, et Barthélemy, et Matthieu, et Thomas, et Jacques [fils] d'Alphée, et Thaddée, et Simon le Cananéen,
19 and Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]). He was the one who [later] (betrayed Jesus/helped Jesus’ enemies seize him).
Et Judas Iscariot, qui même le trahit.
20 Jesus [along with his disciples] went to the house where he was staying [in Capernaum. Again a crowd gathered where he was]. There were many people crowding around him, so that he and his disciples had no time when they could eat or [when they could do anything else].
Puis ils vinrent en la maison, et il s'y assembla encore une si grande multitude, qu'ils ne pouvaient pas même prendre leur repas.
21 After his relatives heard about this, they went to take him home [with them] because (some people/they) were saying that he was insane.
Et quand ses parents eurent entendu cela, ils sortirent pour se saisir de lui; car ils disaient qu'il était hors du sens.
22 [Around that time] some men who taught the [Jewish] laws came down from Jerusalem [city. They heard that Jesus was expelling demons]. So they were telling [people], “Beelzebub, who rules the evil spirits, controls him. He is the one who enables this man to expel evil spirits [from people]!”
Et les Scribes qui étaient descendus de Jérusalem, disaient: Il a Béelzébul, et il chasse les démons par le prince des démons.
23 Jesus summoned those men. [Then he spoke to them] in parables [to enable them to realize that Satan would not oppose his own evil spirits. He also wanted them to realize that by expelling evil spirits, he was demonstrating that he was much more powerful than Satan]. So he said, “([It is ridiculous] to suggest that Satan would expel his own [evil spirits]!/Why would Satan expel his own [evil spirits]?) [RHQ]
Mais [Jésus] les ayant appelés, leur dit par des similitudes: comment Satan peut-il chasser Satan dehors?
24 If [people who live in the same] country are fighting one another, they will cease to be a single group under one ruler.
Car si un Royaume est divisé contre soi-même, ce Royaume-là ne peut point subsister.
25 And if [people who live in the same] house fight each other, they will certainly not remain [as one family].
Et si une maison est divisée contre elle-même, cette maison-là ne peut point subsister.
26 Similarly, if Satan and his [evil spirits] were fighting one another, instead of remaining strong, he would become powerless.
Si donc Satan s'élève contre lui-même, et est divisé, il ne peut point se soutenir, mais il tend à sa fin.
27 Contrary to [what you say about me], someone can enter the house of a strong man [like Satan] and carry off his possessions only if he first ties up the strong man. Then [and only then] will he [be able to] steal the things in that man’s house.”
Nul ne peut entrer dans la maison d'un homme fort, et piller son bien, si auparavant il n'a lié l'homme fort; mais alors il pillera sa maison.
28 [Jesus also said], “Consider this carefully! People may sin in many ways and they may speak evilly about God, but [if] they [then are sorry and ask God to] forgive [them], [God] will forgive them for doing that.
En vérité je vous dis, que toutes sortes de péchés seront pardonnés aux enfants des hommes, et aussi [toutes sortes] de blasphèmes par lesquels ils auront blasphémé;
30 [Jesus told them that] because [they refused to admit that the Holy Spirit was helping him to expel demons. Instead], they were saying, “An evil spirit is controlling him!”
Or c'était parce qu'ils disaient: il est possédé d'un esprit immonde.
31 Jesus’ mother and [younger] siblings arrived. While they stood outside, they sent [someone inside] in order to call him [outside].
Sur cela ses frères et sa mère arrivèrent là, et se tenant dehors ils l'envoyèrent appeler; et la multitude était assise autour de lui.
32 A crowd was sitting around Jesus. One of them said to him, “Listen/Hey, your mother and your [younger] brothers and sisters are outside, and they are wanting (to see/to talk with) you!”
Et on lui dit: voilà ta mère et tes frères là dehors, qui te demandent.
33 Jesus replied to them, “([I will tell you something about] my mother and my brothers.[/Do you know whom I consider to be like] my mother and my brothers?)” [RHQ]
Mais il leur répondit, en disant: qui est ma mère, et qui sont mes frères?
34 After he looked around at [the disciples] who were sitting around him [in a circle], he said, “Look here! I [love these men as much as] I [love] my mother and my brothers.
Et après avoir regardé de tous côtés ceux qui étaient assis autour de lui, il dit: voici ma mère et mes frères.
35 Those who habitually do what God wants are [as dear to me] [MET] as my brother, my sister, or my mother!”
Car quiconque fera la volonté de Dieu, celui-là est mon frère, et ma sœur, et ma mère.
