Mark 8
1 During those days, a large crowd of people gathered again. [After they had been there a couple days], they had no food to eat. So Jesus summoned the disciples [to come closer] and then he said to them,
En ces jours-là, comme il y avait une très grande foule et qu'ils n'avaient rien à manger, Jésus appela ses disciples et leur dit:
2 “This is the third day that these people have been with me, and they have nothing [left] to eat, so now I feel very sorry for them.
« J'ai pitié de la foule, parce qu'elle est restée trois jours avec moi et qu'elle n'a rien à manger.
3 Furthermore, if I send them home [while they are still] hungry, [some of] them will faint on the way home, because some of them have come from far away.”
Si je les renvoie chez eux à jeun, ils s'évanouiront en chemin, car certains d'entre eux ont fait un long voyage. »
4 [Knowing that he was suggesting that they give the people something to eat, one of] his disciples replied, “(We cannot possibly find food to satisfy this crowd, here in this place where no people live!/How can we find food to satisfy this crowd, here in this place where no people live?)” [RHQ]
Ses disciples lui répondirent: « D'où pourrait-on rassasier ces gens de pain, ici, dans un lieu désert? »
5 Jesus asked them, “How many loaves of bread do you have?” They replied, “[We have] seven [flat loaves].”
Il leur demanda: « Combien de pains avez-vous? » Ils ont dit: « Sept. »
6 Jesus commanded the crowd, “Sit down on the ground!” [After they sat down], he took the seven loaves, he thanked [God for them], he broke them [into pieces] and started giving them to his disciples in order that they might distribute them [to the people].
Il ordonna à la foule de s'asseoir par terre, et il prit les sept pains. Après avoir rendu grâces, il les rompit et les donna à ses disciples pour qu'ils les servent, et ils servirent la foule.
7 [They found that] they [also] had a few small [dried] fish. So after he thanked God for these, he told the disciples, “Distribute these also.” [After they distributed the bread and fish to the crowd],
Ils avaient aussi quelques petits poissons. Après les avoir bénis, il leur dit de les servir aussi.
8 the people ate this food and they had plenty [to] satisfy [them]. [The disciples] collected the pieces of food that were left over. [They filled] seven large baskets full of those pieces.
Ils mangèrent et furent rassasiés. Ils emportèrent sept paniers des morceaux qui restaient.
9 [They estimated that] there were about 4,000 people [who ate on that day].
Ceux qui avaient mangé étaient environ quatre mille. Puis il les renvoya.
10 Then Jesus dismissed the crowd. Immediately after that, he got into the boat along with his disciples, and they went [around Lake Galilee] to Dalmanutha district.
Aussitôt, il monta dans la barque avec ses disciples et arriva dans la région de Dalmanutha.
11 [In those days some] Pharisees came to Jesus. They asked him [to perform] a miracle [that would show that] God [had sent him]. They wanted to [find a way by which they could] convince the people to reject him. [So] they started to argue with him.
Les pharisiens sortirent et se mirent à l'interroger, cherchant à obtenir de lui un signe du ciel et l'éprouvant.
12 Jesus sighed quietly to himself, and then he said, “I am disgusted that [RHQ], [even though] you people have seen how I [have healed people], you keep asking me to perform miracles! Note this: Such a miracle will certainly not be shown {I will certainly not show such a miracle} [just] for you people!”
Il soupira profondément en son esprit et dit: « Pourquoi cette génération cherche-t-elle un signe? En vérité, je vous le dis, aucun signe ne sera donné à cette génération. »
13 Then he left them. He got into the boat again, along [with his disciples], and they went further around [Lake Galilee].
Il les quitta, et, montant de nouveau dans la barque, il partit pour l'autre rive.
14 The disciples had forgotten to bring along [enough] food. Specifically, they had only one flat loaf of bread with them in the boat.
Ils avaient oublié de prendre du pain, et ils n'avaient pas plus d'un pain avec eux dans la barque.
15 [As they were going], Jesus warned them against [the attitudes the Pharisees and Herod Antipas had, attitudes that were having a bad effect on other people. He did this by telling them a parable]. He said, “Be careful! Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod!”
Il les avertit en disant: « Prenez garde: gardez-vous du levain des pharisiens et du levain d'Hérode. »
16 [The disciples misunderstood him]. So they said to one another, “[He must have said that] because we have no bread.”
Ils raisonnaient entre eux, disant: « C'est parce que nous n'avons pas de pain. »
17 Jesus knew [what they were discussing among themselves]. So he said to them, “([I am disappointed that you are] discussing about your not having enough bread!/Why are you discussing about your not having enough bread?) [RHQ] (You should understand by now [that I can provide miraculously for you if you need food!/Why do you not yet perceive or understand that I can provide miraculously for you if you need food]?) [RHQ] (You are not thinking!/Why are you not thinking?) [RHQ]
Jésus, s'en apercevant, leur dit: « Pourquoi pensez-vous que c'est parce que vous n'avez pas de pain? Ne voyez-vous pas encore, ne comprenez-vous pas? Votre cœur est-il encore endurci?
18 (I am also disappointed that, although you have eyes, you do not [understand what you] see!/Why is it that, although you have eyes, you do not [understand what you] see?) [RHQ] You have ears, but you do not understand [what I say] [RHQ]!” [Then he asked], “Do you not remember [what happened]
Ayant des yeux, ne voyez-vous pas? Vous avez des oreilles, n'entendez-vous pas? Ne vous souvenez-vous pas?
19 when I broke [only] five loaves [and fed] the 5.000 people [RHQ]? [Not only was everyone satisfied, but there was food left over] How many baskets full of pieces of bread [that were left over] did you collect?” They replied, “We collected twelve baskets full.”
Quand j'ai rompu les cinq pains pour les cinq mille, combien de paniers pleins de morceaux avez-vous emportés? » Ils lui ont dit: « Douze. »
20 Then he asked, “When I broke the seven loaves in order to [feed] the 4,000 people, [again when everyone had plenty to eat], how many large baskets [of pieces of bread that were left over] did you collect?” They replied, “[We collected] seven [large baskets full].”
« Lorsque les sept pains ont nourri les quatre mille personnes, combien de paniers pleins de morceaux avez-vous emportés? » Ils lui ont dit: « Sept. »
21 Then he kept saying to them, “([I am disappointed that] you do not understand yet [that you should never worry that you do not have enough food]!/Why do you not understand yet [that you should never worry that you do not have enough food]?)” [RHQ]
Il leur demanda: « Vous ne comprenez pas encore? »
22 They arrived [in the boat] at Bethsaida [town]. People brought to Jesus a blind man and earnestly requested that Jesus touch him [in order to heal him].
Il arriva à Bethsaïda. On lui amena un aveugle, et on le pria de le toucher.
23 Jesus took the hand of the blind man, led him outside the town, he put his saliva on the man’s eyes, he put his hands on the man, and then he asked him, “Do you see anything?”
Il saisit l'aveugle par la main, et le fit sortir du village. Après lui avoir craché sur les yeux et lui avoir imposé les mains, il lui demanda s'il voyait quelque chose.
24 The man looked up and then he said, “[Yes], I see people! They are walking around, but I cannot see them [clearly]. They look like trees!”
Il leva les yeux et dit: « Je vois des hommes, mais je les vois comme des arbres qui marchent. »
25 Then Jesus again touched the eyes of the blind man. The man looked intently and at that moment he was completely healed! He could see everything clearly.
Puis, de nouveau, il posa ses mains sur ses yeux. Il regarda attentivement, et, rétabli, il vit clairement tout le monde.
26 Jesus said to him, “Do not go into the town! [First go straight home and tell the people there about what I did]!” Then he sent the man to his home.
Il le renvoya dans sa maison, en disant: « N'entre pas dans le village et ne le dis à personne dans le village. »
27 Jesus and the disciples [left Bethsaida town and went to the villages near Caesarea Philippi town]. On the way he questioned them, “Who do people say that I [really] am?”
Jésus se rendit, avec ses disciples, dans les villages de Césarée de Philippe. En chemin, il demanda à ses disciples: « Qui dit-on que je suis? »
28 They replied, “[Some people say] that you are John the Baptizer, [who has come back to life again]. Others say [that you are the prophet] Elijah [who has returned from heaven as God promised]. And others say that you are one of the [other former] prophets [who has come back to life again].”
Ils lui dirent: « Jean le Baptiseur, d'autres disent Élie, mais d'autres encore, un des prophètes. »
29 He asked them, “What about you? Who do you say that I am?” Peter replied to him, “[We believe that] you are the Messiah!”
Il leur dit: « Mais qui dites-vous que je suis? » Pierre a répondu: « Tu es le Christ. »
30 Then Jesus warned them strongly that they should not tell anyone [yet that he was the Messiah].
Il leur ordonna de ne parler de lui à personne.
31 Then Jesus began to teach them, “[Even though] I am the one who came from heaven, it is necessary that I suffer very much. It is also necessary that I be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the men who teach the [Jewish] laws {that the elders, the chief priests, and the men who teach the [Jewish] laws reject me}, and that I be killed {they kill me}. But on the third day [after I am killed I] will become alive again.”
Il se mit à leur enseigner que le Fils de l'homme devait souffrir beaucoup, être rejeté par les anciens, les principaux sacrificateurs et les scribes, être tué, et ressusciter après trois jours.
32 He said this to them clearly. But Peter took Jesus aside and then, [because he assumed that the Messiah would never die], he started to rebuke Jesus [for talking about dying].
Il leur parlait ouvertement. Pierre le prit et se mit à le réprimander.
33 Jesus turned around and looked at his disciples. Then he rebuked Peter, saying, “Stop thinking like that! Satan [is causing you to talk like that! Instead] of wanting what God wants [me to do, you are wanting] me to do [only] what [most] people [would want me to do].”
Mais lui, se retournant et voyant ses disciples, réprimanda Pierre, et dit: « Écarte-toi de moi, Satan! Car tu as en vue non les choses de Dieu, mais les choses des hommes. »
34 Then he summoned the crowd along with his disciples [so that they might listen to him]. He told them, “If any one [of you] wants to be my disciple, you must not do [only] what you yourself want to do. Specifically, you must [be willing to allow people to hurt you and to disgrace you. That is what they do to criminals] who are forced to carry crosses [MET] [to the places where they will be crucified]. That is what anyone who wants to be my disciple must do.
Il appela la foule avec ses disciples et leur dit: « Que celui qui veut venir après moi renonce à lui-même, se charge de sa croix et me suive.
35 [You must do that], because those who try to save their lives [by denying that they belong to me when people want to kill them for believing in me] will not live [eternally], but those who are killed because of being my [disciples] and [because of telling others my] good message will live [forever with me].
En effet, quiconque veut sauver sa vie la perdra; et quiconque perdra sa vie à cause de moi et de la Bonne Nouvelle la sauvera.
36 People might get everything [they want] in this world, but (they are really gaining nothing if they do not get eternal life [because they do not become my disciples!]/what will they gain if they do not get eternal life [because they do not become my disciples]?) [RHQ]
En effet, que sert à un homme de gagner le monde entier et de perdre sa vie?
37 ([Think carefully about the fact that] there is absolutely nothing that people can give [to God] that would enable them to gain eternal life!/Is there anything that a person can give [to God] in order to gain eternal life?) [RHQ]
Car que donnera l'homme en échange de sa vie?
38 And think about this: Those who refuse [to say that they belong to] me and who reject what I say in these days when many people have turned away [from God] and are very sinful, I, the one who came from heaven, will also refuse [to say that they belong to me] when I come back with the holy angels and have the glorious brightness that my Father has!”
Car quiconque aura honte de moi et de mes paroles dans cette génération adultère et pécheresse, le Fils de l'homme aussi aura honte de lui quand il viendra dans la gloire de son Père avec les saints anges. »
