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,
Il arriva encore une fois, vers cette époque, que la foule étant très nombreuse et n'ayant pas de quoi manger, Jésus appela les 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 compassion de cette multitude; voici déjà trois jours qu'ils ne me quittent pas et ils n'ont pas de quoi 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 tomberont en défaillance sur la route; quelques-uns d'entre eux sont venus de loin.»
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: «Où pourrait-on, au milieu de ce désert, trouver des pains pour les rassasier?» —
5 Jesus asked them, “How many loaves of bread do you have?” They replied, “[We have] seven [flat loaves].”
«Combien de pains avez-vous?» leur demanda Jésus. — «Sept», dirent-ils.
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 donna ordre à la foule de s'asseoir par terre. Prenant ensuite les sept pains et rendant grâces, il les rompit et les donna à ses disciples pour qu'ils en fissent la distribution; et ils les distribuèrent à la multitude.
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 encore quelques poissons. Jésus les bénit aussi et les fit distribuer.
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.
Tous mangèrent et furent rassasiés. Des morceaux qui restèrent on emporta sept corbeilles;
9 [They estimated that] there were about 4,000 people [who ate on that day].
or ils étaient quatre mille environ. Ensuite Jésus les congédia.
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.
Immédiatement après, il monta dans la barque avec ses disciples il et se rendit dans le pays 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.
où survinrent les Pharisiens qui se mirent à discuter avec lui, lui demandant un signe venant du ciel; c'était pour le mettre à l'épreuve.
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!”
Quant à lui, il dit en soupirant du plus profond de son coeur: «Pourquoi cette race-là demande-t-elle un signe? Je vous le dis en vérité, à cette race-là il ne sera point donné de signe!»
13 Then he left them. He got into the boat again, along [with his disciples], and they went further around [Lake Galilee].
Il les laissa, remonta, dans la barque et passa sur 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.
Or ils oublièrent de prendre des pains; ils n'en avaient qu'un seul 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!”
et comme Jésus leur adressait cette recommandation: «Faites bien attention, prenez bien garde au levain des Pharisiens et à celui d'Hérode», —
16 [The disciples misunderstood him]. So they said to one another, “[He must have said that] because we have no bread.”
ils se communiquèrent leurs pensées: «C'est parce que nous n'avons pas de pains!»
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, le sachant, leur dit: «Comment pouvez-vous penser aux pains que vous n'avez pas? N'avez-vous donc encore ni compréhension, ni intelligence? Votre coeur est-il toujours aveuglés?
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]
Vous avez des yeux, vous ne voyez pas! Vous avez des oreilles, vous n'entendez pas! Vous n'avez pas de mémoire!
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 hommes, combien de paniers pleins de morceaux avez-vous emportés?» — «Douze», répondirent-ils. —
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].”
«Et quand j'ai rompu les sept pains pour les quatre mille hommes, combien de corbeilles avez-vous remplies de morceaux et avez-vous emportées?» — «Sept», répondirent-ils. —
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 reprit: «Est-ce que 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].
Ils arrivèrent 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?”
Prenant cet homme par la main, il le conduisit hors du village. Puis il lui mit de la salive sur les yeux, posa les mains sur lui et lui demanda s'il commençait à voir.
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!”
Celui-ci regarda et répondit: «J'aperçois des hommes, parce que je 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.
Alors Jésus posa encore une fois ses mains sur les yeux de l'aveugle, qui regarda: il était guéri; il apercevait distinctement toutes choses.
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.
Jésus le renvoya dans sa maison en lui disant: «Ne rentre pas 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 s'en alla, accompagné de ses disciples, vers les villages voisins de Césarée de Philippe. Durant la route, il interrogea ses disciples; il leur dit: «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 répondirent: «Les uns, que tu es Jean Baptiste; les autres, Élie; d'autres encore, l'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!”
«Mais vous, reprit-il, qui dites-vous que je suis?» Pierre répondit par ces mots: «Tu es le Christ.»
30 Then Jesus warned them strongly that they should not tell anyone [yet that he was the Messiah].
Il leur défendit expressément de parler de lui à qui que ce soit.
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.”
Puis il commença à leur apprendre qu'il lui fallait, lui, le Fils de l'homme: — beaucoup souffrir; — être rejeté par les Anciens, les chefs des prêtres et les Scribes; — être mis à mort; — ressusciter au bout de 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 exposait tout cela très clairement. Le tirant alors à l'écart, Pierre se mit à le reprendre.
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 regardant ses disciples, reprit sévèrement Pierre, lui disant: «Va-t'en! Arrière de moi, Satan! parce que tes pensées ne sont pas de Dieu, mais 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.
Ayant appelé à lui la foule, ainsi que ses disciples, il leur dit: «Si quelqu'un veut venir derrière moi et me suivre, qu'il renonce à lui-même, qu'il porte sa croix et qu'il 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].
Celui qui voudra sauver sa vie, la perdra; et il sauvera sa vie, celui qui l'aura perdue à cause de moi et de l'Évangile.
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]
A quoi servira-t-il à un homme de gagner le monde entier s'il perd 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]
Qu'est-ce qu'il donnera 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!”
De celui qui, au sein de cette génération adultère et pécheresse, aura eu honte de moi et de mes paroles, le Fils de l'homme aura honte à son tour, quand il viendra dans la gloire de son Père avec les saints anges!»
