[It is as though] [PRS] the place where the dead people are is eagerly looking for more Israeli people, opening its mouth to swallow them, and a huge number of people will be thrown into that place, including their leaders as well as a noisy crowd of people who enjoy living in Jerusalem. (Sheol h7585)

[He said to tell him], “Request me, Yahweh your God, to do something that will enable you to be sure [that I will help/protect you]. What you request can be [from a place that is] as high as the sky or as low as the place where the dead people are.” (Sheol h7585)

You [boast] saying, “We have made an alliance with [the leaders of Egypt], so we will not be killed [in battles]; we will never go to the place where the dead people are. When the [army of Assyria] attacks us, they will never defeat us, because we have made [an agreement with Egypt] to protect us!” [But that agreement consists of] a lot of lies [DOU]. (Sheol h7585)
Car vous avez dit: Nous avons contracté une alliance avec la mort, et avec l’enfer nous avons fait un pacte. Le fléau débordant, lorsqu’il passera, ne viendra pas sur nous; parce que nous avons établi le mensonge notre espérance, et que par le mensonge nous avons été protégés. (Sheol h7585)
I will annul/destroy the agreement that you made [with the leaders of Egypt]. You thought that [because of that agreement] you would not be killed, and you would not go to the place where the dead are. [But] when the vast [army of Assyria] overwhelms you like a flood, they will trample you into the ground. (Sheol h7585)

Et tu t’es parée d’un parfum royal, et tu as multiplié tes essences. Tu as envoyé des messagers au loin, et tu as été abaissée jusqu’aux enfers. (Sheol h7585)
This is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘When that great tree was cut down, [it was as though] the springs that watered it mourned for it, because I caused the plentiful water [from the springs] to dry up. I caused [the mountains in] Lebanon to become black, and all the trees there to wither. (Sheol h7585)
Voici ce que dit le Seigneur Dieu: Au jour qu’il est descendu aux enfers, j’ai fait faire un deuil, je l’ai couvert de l’abîme; et j’ai arrêté ses fleuves, et retenu les grandes eaux: le Liban a été attristé sur lui, et tous les arbres des champs ont été ébranlés. (Sheol h7585)
I caused the people of other nations to tremble when they heard that tree fall to the ground. [They realized] that it would decay, like all people who die and are buried decay. And all the [leaders of other countries represented by] other beautiful trees in my garden in Eden and in Lebanon, were like beautiful trees [that were very proud]. They were ones which had roots that grew down deep into the [ground where there was plenty of] water. They were comforted when [the king represented by] [MET] that cedar tree was there with them in the place where the dead people are. (Sheol h7585)
Par le bruit de sa ruine, j’ai agité des nations, lorsque je le conduisais dans l’enfer avec ceux qui descendent dans la fosse; et ils se sont consolés au fond de la terre, tous les arbres de délices, beaux et magnifiques du Liban, tous ceux qui étaient arrosés par les eaux. (Sheol h7585)
The [leaders of other countries represented by] [MET] trees that grew in the shade of the huge tree, [the allies of] the great nation [that the cedar tree represents], had also joined those who had been killed by the sword and gone down to where the dead people are. (Sheol h7585)
Car eux-mêmes aussi descendront avec lui dans l’enfer parmi les tués par le glaive; et le bras de chacun d’eux restera immobile sous son ombrage au milieu des nations. (Sheol h7585)
In the place where the dead people are, mighty leaders [of other countries] will [make fun of the people of Egypt] and say, “They have come here to lie with us godless people who were killed by our enemies’ swords!”’ (Sheol h7585)
Ils lui parleront du milieu de l’enfer, les plus puissants d’entre les forts qui sont descendus avec ses auxiliaires, et qui dorment incirconcis, tués par le glaive. (Sheol h7585)
They will surely [RHQ] not be buried honorably like the soldiers who have died, whose shields were buried with their corpses, whose swords were placed on their skulls in the graves. While those godless people were alive, they had caused many people in the land to be terrified, so they were punished for their sins. (Sheol h7585)
Et ils ne dormiront pas avec les forts, et ceux qui sont tombés, et les incirconcis descendus dans l’enfer avec leurs armes, et qui ont mis leurs glaives sous leurs têtes; et leurs iniquités ont pénétré dans leurs os, parce qu’ils sont devenus la terreur des forts dans la terre des vivants. (Sheol h7585)
I certainly will not [RHQ] save you from being killed and from going to the place where the dead people are. I will [RHQ] cause you to be afflicted by plagues and to die and be buried in graves. I will not be merciful [to you]. (Sheol h7585)
Je les délivrerai de la main de la mort, je les rachèterai de la mort; je serai ta mort, ô mort; je serai ta morsure, ô enfer; la consolation s’est cachée à mes yeux. (Sheol h7585)
If they dig deep pits in the ground, or if they try to climb up to the sky [in order to escape], I will reach out and grab them. (Sheol h7585)
S’ils descendent jusqu’à l’enfer, ma main les en retirera; et s’ils montent jusqu’au ciel, je les en ferai tomber. (Sheol h7585)
Jonah said, “Yahweh, when I was greatly distressed [here], I prayed to you, and you heard what I [prayed]. When I was [about to descend way down into] the place where dead people go, you heard me when I called out [for you to help/save me]. (Sheol h7585)
Et il dit: [J’ai crié vers le Seigneur du milieu de ma tribulation, et il m’a exaucé; du sein de l’enfer j’ai crié, et vous avez entendu ma voix. (Sheol h7585)
If people [trust in their wealth], they will deceive themselves, and proud people are never able to rest. [It is as though] the greedy people [of Babylonia open their mouths] as wide as the place where dead people are, and they never have enough, like [the place where] dead people go never has enough dead people [PRS]. The [armies of Babylonia] conquer many nations for themselves, and capture all their people. (Sheol h7585)
Et comme le vin trompe celui qui en boit, ainsi en sera-t-il de l’homme superbe, et il ne sera pas honoré; lui qui a dilaté son (Sheol h7585)
But what I say to you is this: [If you are] angry with someone, [God] will judge you. If you say to someone, ‘[You are worthless],’ the Jewish Council will judge you. If you [hate someone], and say to them 'You fool!' you. yourself, will be in danger of being thrown into the fires in hell. (Geenna g1067)
Mais moi je vous dis que quiconque se met en colère contre son frère sera soumis au jugement. Et celui qui dira à son frère: Raca, sera soumis au conseil. Mais celui qui lui dira: Fou, sera soumis à la géhenne du feu. (Geenna g1067)
If because of what you see [MTY] you [are tempted to] sin, [stop looking at those things! Even if you have to] gouge out one of your eyes and throw it away [HYP] [to avoid sinning, do it!] It is good [that you not sin and] as a result [go to heaven, even though while you are still here on earth] you lack one [or both of] your eyes. But it is not good [that you continue to have two eyes and sin and, as a result, God] sends your whole body to hell. (Geenna g1067)
Que si ton œil droit te scandalise, arrache-le et jette-le loin de toi; car il vaut mieux pour toi qu’un de tes membres périsse, que si tout ton corps était jeté dans la géhenne. (Geenna g1067)
If you are [tempted to] use one of your hands to sin [MTY], [stop using your hand. Even if you have to] cut your hand off and throw it away [to avoid sinning, do it] [HYP]! It is good [that you do not sin and as a result you go to heaven, even though while you are still here on earth] you lack one [or both] of your [hands]. But it is not good [that you sin and, as a result, God] sends your whole body to hell.” (Geenna g1067)
Et si ta main droite te scandalise, coupe-la et la jette loin de toi; car il vaut mieux pour toi qu’un de tes membres périsse, que si tout ton corps était jeté dans la géhenne. (Geenna g1067)
Do not be afraid of people who [are able to] kill your body [SYN] but are not able to destroy your soul. Instead, fear [God because] he is able to destroy both a [person’s] body and a [person’s] soul in hell. (Geenna g1067)
Ne craignez point ceux qui tuent le corps et ne peuvent tuer l’âme; mais craignez plutôt celui qui peut précipiter l’âme et le corps dans la géhenne. (Geenna g1067)
[also have something to say to] you [people who live in] Capernaum [city] [MTY]. (Do not [think that] you will be honored {that [God] will honor you} in heaven!/Do you think that you will be honored {that [God] will honor you} in heaven?) [RHQ] [That will not happen! On the contrary, after you die, you will be sent] {[God] will send you} down into the place where [sinful people] will be punished {he will punish sinful people} [forever. God destroyed the ancient city of] Sodom [because the people who lived in that city were extremely wicked]. If I had performed in [Sodom the miracles that I performed in your city, the people there would have turned away from their wicked behavior and] their [city] [MET] would still exist now [MTY]. But you, [although I did miracles in your city, you did not turn from your wicked behavior]. (Hadēs g86)
Et toi, Capharnaüm, est-ce jusqu’au ciel que tu t’élèveras? Tu descendras jusqu’aux enfers, parce que, si dans Sodome avaient été faits les miracles qui ont été faits au milieu de toi, elle aurait peut-être subsisté jusqu’à ce jour. (Hadēs g86)
[God is willing to] forgive people who criticize [me], the One who came from heaven. But I [warn you that] those who say evil things about what the Holy Spirit [does] will not be forgiven {[God] will not forgive people who speak evil words about what the Holy Spirit [does]}. They will not be forgiven {[He] will not forgive them} now, and they will never be forgiven {[he] will never forgive them}.” (aiōn g165)
Et quiconque aura parlé contre le Fils de l’homme, il lui sera remis, mais si quelqu’un a parlé contre l’Esprit-Saint, il ne lui sera remis, ni en ce siècle, ni dans le siècle avenir. (aiōn g165)
[Some people are like the soil that had the roots of] thorny [weeds] in it. They hear God’s message, but they desire to be rich, [so they] worry [only] about [MTY, PRS] material things. As a result, they [PRS] forget [God’s] message, and they do not do [IDM] the things that God wants them to do. (aiōn g165)
Celui qui a reçu la semence parmi les épines, c’est celui qui écoute la parole; mais les sollicitudes de ce siècle et la tromperie des richesses étouffent cette parole, et elle reste sans fruit. (aiōn g165)
The enemy who sowed the weed seeds represents the devil. The [time when the reapers will] harvest [the grain] represents the time when the world will end. The reapers represent the angels. (aiōn g165)
L’ennemi qui l’a semée, c’est le démon. La moisson, c’est la consommation du siècle; et les moissonneurs sont les anges. (aiōn g165)
The weeds are gathered and burned. {The reapers gather the weeds. Then they burn them.} That represents [the judging of people, which God will do] when the world will end. [It will be like this]: (aiōn g165)
Comme donc on arrache l’ivraie et qu’on la brûle dans le feu, ainsi en sera-t-il à la consommation du siècle. (aiōn g165)
[What they did in separating the good fish from the bad ones] is like [what will happen to people] when the world ends. The angels will come [to where God is judging people], and will separate the wicked [people] from the righteous [ones]. (aiōn g165)
Ainsi en sera-t-il à la consommation du siècle; les anges viendront et sépareront les méchants du milieu des justes, (aiōn g165)
I will also tell you this: You are Peter, [which means rock]. [You are like] a rock. What you [and your fellow apostles teach] (OR, [what] you [do]) [will be like a foundation on which I] will create congregations of people who [believe in] me. And the demons [PRS], [who live] where the dead people who lived evil lives are, will not be able to [come and] prevent [MET] [me from doing] that.” (Hadēs g86)
Aussi moi je te dis que tu es Pierre, et sur cette pierre je bâtirai mon Église, et les portes de l’enfer ne prévaudront point contre elle. (Hadēs g86)
So, if you [are wanting to use] one of your hands or feet to sin, [stop using that hand or foot! Even if you have to] cut it off [to avoid sinning, do it] [MET]! It is good [that you not sin and] go where you will live [with God eternally, even though while you are still here on earth] you are maimed or lame and do not have a hand or a foot. But it is not good that you continue to have your two hands and two feet [and do] [MTY] [the sinful things you want to, and as a result], you are thrown into [hell], where there is eternal fire burning. (aiōnios g166, questioned)
Si donc, ta main ou ton pied te scandalise, coupe-le, et jette-le loin de toi; il vaut mieux pour toi entrer dans la vie, privé d’une main ou d’un pied, que d’être jeté, ayant deux mains ou deux pieds, dans le feu éternel. (aiōnios g166)
If what you see you [makes you want] to sin, [stop looking at those things! Even if you have to] gouge out one of your eyes and throw it away [to avoid sinning, do it] [HYP]! It is good [that you not sin and] go where you will live [with God eternally, even though while you are still here on earth] you have only one eye. But it is not good that you continue to have your two eyes [and do the sinful things you want to, and as a result], you are thrown {God throws you} into hell where there is eternal fire burning.” (Geenna g1067)
Et si ton œil te scandalise, arrache-le et le jette loin de toi; il vaut mieux pour toi entrer dans la vie avec un seul œil, que d’être jeté ayant deux yeux dans la géhenne du feu. (Geenna g1067)
[As Jesus was walking along, a young] man approached him and said [to him], “Teacher, what good [deeds] must I do in order to live [with God] eternally?” (aiōnios g166)
Et voilà que quelqu’un s’approchant, lui dit: Bon maître, que ferai-je de bon pour avoir la vie éternelle? (aiōnios g166)
[God will reward] those who, because of being my [disciples], have left [behind] a house or plot of ground, [their] brothers, [their] sisters, their father, their mother, their children, [or any other family] [MTY] [members]. [God] will give them 100 times [as many benefits as they have given up]. And they will live [with God] eternally. (aiōnios g166)
Et quiconque aura quitté ou maison, ou frères, ou sœurs, ou père, ou mère, ou femme, ou fils, ou terre, à cause de mon nom, recevra le centuple, et aura pour héritage la vie éternelle. (aiōnios g166)
He saw a fig tree near the road. [So he went over to it to pick some figs to eat]. But when he got close, he saw that there were no [figs on the tree]. There were only leaves on it. So [to illustrate how God would punish the nation of Israel], he said to the fig tree, “May you never again produce figs!” As a result, the fig tree withered that night. (aiōn g165)
Or apercevant un figuier près du chemin, il s’en approcha; et n’y trouvant rien que des feuilles, il lui dit: Que jamais fruit ne naisse de toi désormais. Et à l’instant le figuier sécha. (aiōn g165)
“You are hypocrites, you men who teach the [Jewish] laws and you Pharisees! Your punishment will be terrible, because you exert yourselves very much to get [even] one person to believe what you teach. For instance, you travel across seas and lands [to distant places] in order to do that. And [as a result], when one person [believes what you teach], you make that person much more deserving to go to hell than you yourselves [deserve to].” (Geenna g1067)
Malheur à vous, scribes et pharisiens hypocrites, parce que vous parcourez la mer et la terre pour faire un prosélyte; et quand il est fait, vous faites de lui un fils de la géhenne deux fois plus que vous. (Geenna g1067)
[You people are so wicked] You are [as dangerous as poisonous] snakes [DOU, MET]! (You [foolishly] think that you will escape being punished in hell!/Do you [foolishly] think that you will escape when [God] punishes [wicked people] in hell?) [RHQ] (Geenna g1067)
Serpents, races de vipères, comment fuirez-vous le jugement de la géhenne? (Geenna g1067)
[Later], as Jesus was sitting alone on [the slope of] Olive [Tree] Hill, [we] disciples went to him and asked him, “When will this happen [to the buildings of the Temple? Also, tell us what will happen to indicate that you are about to] come again, and [to indicate] that this world is ending?” (aiōn g165)
Et comme il était assis sur le mont des Oliviers, ses disciples s’approchèrent de lui en particulier, disant: Dites-nous quand ces choses arriveront? et quel sera le signe de votre avènement et de la consommation du siècle? (aiōn g165)
Then I will say to those on my left, ‘You people who have been cursed [by God] {whom God has cursed}, leave me! Go into the eternal fire that God has prepared for (the devil/Satan) and his angels! (aiōnios g166)
Alors il dira aussi à ceux qui seront à sa gauche: Allez loin de moi, maudits, au feu éternel, qui a été préparé au diable et à ses anges; (aiōnios g166)
Then those people [on my left] will go away to the place where [they] will be punished {[God] will punish them} eternally, but the righteous people will go to where they will live forever [with God].” (aiōnios g166)
Et ceux-ci s’en iront à l’éternel supplice, et les justes dans la vie éternelle. (aiōnios g166)
Teach them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember that [by the Spirit] I will be with you always, until the end of [this] age.” (aiōn g165)
Leur apprenant à garder tout ce que je vous ai commandé: et voici que je suis avec vous tous les jours, jusqu’à la consommation du siècle. (aiōn g165)
they desire to be rich, and they desire to own many other things. So they worry [only] about material things. The result is that they forget [God’s] message and they do not do [the things that God wants them to do]. (aiōn g165)
Mais les soucis du siècle et l’illusion des richesses, et toutes les autres convoitises entrant en eux, étouffent la parole et la rendent sans fruit. (aiōn g165)
[So], if you are [wanting to use one of] [MTY, PRS] [your hands to sin, stop using your hand! Even if you have to] cut your hand off and throw it away [to avoid sinning, do it] [HYP]! It is good that you not sin and that you live eternally, [even though you lack one of] your hands [while you are here on earth]. But it is not good that you sin and as a result God throws your whole body into hell. There the fires never go out! (Geenna g1067)
Que si votre main vous scandalise, coupez-la: il vaut mieux pour vous entrer dans la vie, privé d’une main, que d’aller, ayant deux mains, dans la géhenne du feu qui ne peut s’éteindre, (Geenna g1067)
If you are [wanting to use] one of [PRS] your feet to sin, [stop using your foot! Even if you have to] cut off your foot [to avoid sinning, do it] [HYP]! It is good that you not sin and live eternally, [even though] you lack one of your feet [while you are here on earth]. But it is not good that you sin and go to hell. (Geenna g1067)
Et si votre pied vous scandalise, coupez-le: il vaut mieux pour vous entrer, privé d’un pied, dans la vie éternelle, que d’être jeté, ayant deux pieds, dans la géhenne du feu qui ne peut s’éteindre, (Geenna g1067)
If because of what you see [MTY, PRS] you are tempted to sin, [stop looking at those things]! Even if you have to gouge out your eye and throw it away [HYP] [to avoid sinning, do it! It is good that you not sin and live eternally, even though you lack one of] your eyes [while you are here on earth]. But it is not good that you sin and, as a result, God puts your whole body in hell. (Geenna g1067)
Que si votre œil vous scandalise, arrachez-le: il vaut mieux pour vous entrer, privé d’un œil, dans le royaume de Dieu, que d’être jeté, ayant deux yeux, dans la géhenne du feu, (Geenna g1067)
As Jesus was starting to travel [again with his disciples], a [young] man ran up to him. He knelt before Jesus and then he asked him, “Good teacher, what must I do to have eternal life/in order to live [with God] eternally?” (aiōnios g166)
Comme il se mettait en chemin, quelqu’un accourant et fléchissant le genou, lui demanda: Bon maître, que ferai-je pour avoir la vie éternelle? (aiōnios g166)
will receive in this life 100 times as much [as they left behind. That will include houses and people as dear as] brothers and sisters and mothers and children, and plots of ground. Furthermore, although people will persecute them [here on earth because they believe in me], in the future age [they] will ([have] eternal life/live [with God] eternally). (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
[But to illustrate how God would punish the nation of Israel, ] he said to the tree, “No one shall ever eat from you again [because you will no longer bear figs].” The disciples heard what he said. (aiōn g165)
Alors prenant la parole, il lui dit: Que jamais personne ne mange plus de fruit de toi! Et ses disciples l’entendaient. (aiōn g165)
He will be the King of [the] Jews, the descendants [MTY] of [your ancestor] Jacob, forever. He will rule as king forever!” (aiōn g165)
et il régnera éternellement sur la maison de Jacob, Et son règne n’aura point de fin. (aiōn g165)
He promised to Abraham and all our other ancestors who descended from him that he would act mercifully toward them forever.” (aiōn g165)
Comme il l’avait promis à nos pères, à Abraham, et à sa postérité pour toujours. (aiōn g165)
Long ago God caused his prophets to say that he would do that. (aiōn g165)
Comme il a promis par la bouche de ses saints prophètes, qui ont été dès les temps les plus anciens, (aiōn g165)
[The demons] kept begging [Jesus] that he would not command them to go into the deep place [where God punishes demons]. (Abyssos g12)
Et ils le priaient de ne pas leur commander d’aller dans l’abîme. (Abyssos g12)
[I also have something to say to] you [people who live in] Capernaum [city]. (Do not [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven!/Do you [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven?) [RHQ] [That will not happen! On the contrary], [after you die, God] will send you down to the place where [sinful people] will be punished [forever]!” (Hadēs g86)
Et toi, Capharnaüm, élevée jusqu’au ciel, tu seras plongée jusqu’au fond de l’enfer. (Hadēs g86)
[One day as Jesus was teaching people], a man was there who had studied carefully the laws that [God gave Moses]. He wanted to ask Jesus a difficult question. So he stood up and asked, “Teacher, what shall I do in order to live [with God] forever?” (aiōnios g166)
Et voilà qu’un docteur de la loi, se levant pour le tenter, dit: Maître, que ferai-je pour posséder la vie éternelle? (aiōnios g166)
But I will warn you about the one that you should truly be afraid of. You should be afraid of [God], because he not only has [the power to] cause people to die, he has the power to throw them into hell afterward! Yes, he is truly the one that you should be afraid of! (Geenna g1067)
Mais je vous montrerai qui vous devez craindre: Craignez celui qui, après avoir ôté la vie, a le pouvoir d’envoyer dans la géhenne: oui, je vous le dis, craignez celui-là. (Geenna g1067)
When his master [heard what the manager had done], he admired the dishonest manager for the clever thing he had done. [The truth] is that the ungodly people in this world act more wisely toward other people than godly people [MET] act. (aiōn g165)
Et le maître de l’économe infidèle le loua d’avoir agi prudemment; car les fils du siècle sont plus prudents entre eux que les fils de la lumière. (aiōn g165)
[So] I tell you [(pl)] this: Use the money that you have [here] on earth to help others so that they will become your friends. Then when [you die and] you cannot [take] any money with you, [God and his angels] will welcome you into a home [in heaven] that will last forever. (aiōnios g166)
Et moi je vous dis: Faites-vous des amis avec les richesses injustes, afin que, lorsque vous viendrez à manquer, ils vous reçoivent dans les tabernacles éternels. (aiōnios g166)

Or il arriva que le mendiant mourut, et fut porté par les anges dans le sein d’Abraham. Le riche mourut aussi, et fut enseveli dans l’enfer. (Hadēs g86)
In the place where dead people wait [for God to judge them], he was suffering great pain. He looked up and saw Abraham far away, and he saw Lazarus sitting close to Abraham. (Hadēs g86)

A [Jewish] leader asked [Jesus], “Good teacher, what shall I do in order to have eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Un des principaux l’interrogea, disant: Bon maître, que ferai-je pour posséder la vie éternelle? (aiōnios g166)
Jesus replied to them, “Men who live here in this world take wives, or are given wives [by their parents] {their [parents] choose wives [for them]}. (aiōn g165)
Jésus leur dit: Les fils de ce siècle se marient et sont donnés en mariage; (aiōn g165)
But the men whom God considers worthy of [being in heaven after] they become alive again will not be married. (aiōn g165)
Mais ceux qui seront trouvés dignes du siècle à venir et de la résurrection des morts, ne se marieront point et n’épouseront point de femmes; (aiōn g165)
As a result, everyone who believes/trusts in me will have eternal life.” (aiōnios g166)
Afin que quiconque croit en lui ne périsse points mais qu’il ait la vie éternelle. (aiōnios g166)
God loved us people [MTY] in the world so much that he gave his only Son [as a sacrifice for us], in order that everyone who believes in him would not be separated from God forever. Instead, they would have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Car Dieu a tellement aimé le monde, qu’il a donné son Fils unique, afin que quiconque croit en lui ne périsse point, mais qu’il ait la vie éternelle. (aiōnios g166)
Those who trust in [God’s] Son have eternal life. But those who reject God’s Son will never have [eternal] life. Instead, God is angry with them [and he will surely punish them]. (aiōnios g166)
Qui croit au Fils a la vie éternelle; mais qui ne croit point au Fils ne verra point la vie, mais la colère de Dieu demeure sur lui. (aiōnios g166)
[If you help them to accept my message], I will reward you [MET], [as an owner of a field] pays those who harvest the crops. Because of your work, people will gain eternal life.’ [I have been telling people God’s message. That is like] [MET] a man who plants seeds. [You will help people to accept my message. That will be like] [MET] harvesting crops. [When that happens], both you and I will rejoice. (aiōnios g166)
Et celui qui moissonne reçoit une récompense, et recueille du fruit pour la vie éternelle, afin que celui qui sème se réjouisse aussi bien que celui qui moissonne. (aiōnios g166)
Listen to this carefully: Those who hear my message and believe that [God] is the one who sent me have eternal life. [God will] not (condemn them/say that he will punish them). They are no longer separated from God. Instead, they have [eternal] life. (aiōnios g166)
En vérité, en vérité, je vous dis que celui qui écoute ma parole et croit à celui qui m’a envoyé, a la vie éternelle et ne’ vient pas en jugement; mais il a passé de la mort à la vie. (aiōnios g166)
You carefully study (OR, Study) the Scriptures, because you think that by [studying] them you will [find the way to] have eternal life. And those Scriptures tell people about me! (aiōnios g166)
Scrutez les Ecritures, puisque vous pensez avoir en elles la vie éternelle, car ce sont elles qui rendent témoignage de moi; (aiōnios g166)
Stop desiring food that will soon spoil! Instead, desire to get [spiritual] food that will last forever! Yearn for eternal life! That is what I, the one who came from heaven, will give you. God [my] Father has shown that he approves of me [enabling me to do that].” (aiōnios g166)
Travaillez, non pas en vue de la nourriture qui périt, mais de celle qui demeure pour la vie éternelle, et que le Fils de l’homme vous donnera; car Dieu le Père l’a scellée de son sceau. (aiōnios g166)
[Long ago in the desolate area when those who were bitten by snakes looked at the bronze replica of a snake, they were healed] [MET].

I will cause them to become alive again (on the last day/on the day [when I judge everyone]) [MTY].” (aiōnios g166)

Mais Simon-Pierre lui répondit: Seigneur, à qui irions-nous? Vous avez des paroles de vie éternelle; (aiōnios g166)
A slave is not a permanent member of a family. But a son is a member of a family forever. [Similarly, you say you are members of God’s family because you are descendants of Abraham, but really, because you are like slaves of your sinful desires, you are no longer permanent members of God’s family]. (aiōn g165)
Or l’esclave ne demeure point toujours dans la maison; mais le fils y demeure toujours; (aiōn g165)

[Someone in] the crowd answered him, “We understand from the Scriptures that the Messiah will live forever. So why do you say that the one who came from heaven, [who is the Messiah], will be lifted up {that [men] will lift up the one who came from heaven, [who is the Messiah], } on a cross? What kind of man who came from heaven are you [talking about]? (OR, That’s not the [kind] of Messiah [we are expecting]!)” (aiōn g165)
Le peuple lui répondit: Nous avons appris par la loi que le Christ demeure éternellement; et comment dis-tu, toi: Il faut que le Fils de l’homme soit élevé? Qui est-ce Fils de l’homme? (aiōn g165)
I know that [paying attention to] what he has instructed us [leads to] eternal life. So whatever I say is exactly (OR, only) what [my] Father has told me to say.” (aiōnios g166)
Et je sais que son commandement est la vie éternelle. Ainsi ce que je dis, je le dis comme mon Père me l’a ordonné. (aiōnios g166)
Peter said, “I will never, ever, [allow you to] wash my feet!” Jesus replied to him, “If I do not wash you, you cannot continue (to be my [disciple/to belong to] me).” (aiōn g165)
Pierre lui dit: Jamais vous ne me laverez les pieds. Jésus lui répondit: Si je ne te lave, tu n’auras point de part avec moi, (aiōn g165)
Then I myself will request [my] Father, and he will send you someone else who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you. (aiōn g165)
Et moi je prierai mon Père, et il vous donnera un autre Paraclet, pour qu’il demeure éternellement avec vous, (aiōn g165)
You gave me authority over all people, in order that I might enable all those whom you chose [to come] to me to live eternally. (aiōnios g166)
Puisque vous lui avez donné puissance sur toute chair, afin que, quant à tous ceux que vous lui avez donnés, il leur donne la vie éternelle. (aiōnios g166)
[The way for people] to live eternally is for them to know that you are the only true God, and to know that [I], Jesus, am the Messiah, the one you have sent. (aiōnios g166)
Or la vie éternelle, c’est qu’ils vous connaissent, vous seul vrai Dieu, et celui que vous avez envoyé, Jésus-Christ. (aiōnios g166)
You will not allow my spirit to remain in the place where the dead are. You will not [even] let my body decay, [because] I am devoted to you and always obey [you]. (Hadēs g86)
Car vous ne laisserez point mon âme dans l’enfer, et ne souffrirez point que votre Saint voie la corruption. (Hadēs g86)
David knew beforehand [what God would do], so he [was able to] say that God would cause the Messiah to live again [after he died]. He said that God would not let the Messiah remain in the place of the dead, nor let his body decay.” (Hadēs g86)
Par prévision, il a dit, touchant la résurrection du Christ, qu’il n’a point été laissé dans l’enfer, et que sa chair n’a point vu la corruption. (Hadēs g86)
Jesus must stay in heaven until the time when God will cause all that he has created to become new. Long ago God promised [to do that, and] he chose holy prophets to tell [that to people]. (aiōn g165)
Que le ciel doit recevoir jusqu’au temps du rétablissement de toutes choses, dont Dieu a parlé par la bouche de ses saints prophètes, depuis le commencement du monde. (aiōn g165)
Then, speaking very boldly, Paul and Barnabas said [to those Jewish leaders], “[We two] had to speak the message from God [about Jesus] to you [Jews] first [before we proclaim it to non-Jews, because God commanded us to do that. But] you are rejecting God’s message. [By doing that], you have shown that you are not worthy (to have eternal life/to live eternally [with God]). [Therefore], we are leaving [you, and now we] will go to the non-Jewish people [to tell them the message from God]. (aiōnios g166)
Alors Paul et Barnabé dirent hardiment: C’était à vous qu’il fallait d’abord annoncer la parole de Dieu; mais puisque vous la rejetez, et que vous vous jugez indignes de la vie éternelle, voilà que nous nous tournons vers les gentils; (aiōnios g166)
While the non-Jewish people were listening [to those words], they began to rejoice, and they repeatedly said that the message about the Lord [Jesus] was wonderful. And all of the non-Jewish people whom [God] had chosen (to have eternal [life/to live eternally with God]) believed [the message about the Lord Jesus]. (aiōnios g166)
Ce qu’entendant, les gentils se réjouirent, et ils glorifiaient la parole de Dieu; et tous ceux qui étaient préordonnés à la vie éternelle embrassèrent la foi. (aiōnios g166)
I [caused my people to know about them] long ago.” (aiōn g165)
De toute éternité, Dieu connaît son œuvre. (aiōn g165)
[People] cannot see what God is like. But ever since he created the world, by means of what he created he has clearly revealed what he is like. He has made clear to everyone that he has always been able to do very powerful things. [Therefore, we should recognize that] God is powerful, [completely different from all that he created]. So no one has a basis for saying, [“We never knew about God].” (aïdios g126)
En effet, ses perfections invisibles, rendues compréhensibles depuis la création du monde par les choses qui ont été faites, sont devenues visibles aussi bien que sa puissance éternelle et sa divinité; de sorte qu’ils sont inexcusables; (aïdios g126)
Also, they [chose to worship] false [gods] instead (of admitting/of choosing to believe) what is true [about] God. They worshipped and served things [that God] created instead of [worshipping and serving God himself], the one who created [everything. They did this even though] he [deserves that those he created] would forever praise him. Amen!/May it be so! (aiōn g165)
Eux qui ont transformé la vérité de Dieu en mensonge, adoré et servi la créature au lieu du Créateur, qui est béni dans les siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
[Specifically], some people, by continuing to doing good things, strive to be highly honored [by God] [DOU] and to receive a life that will not end. [God will reward them by enabling them] to live forever. (aiōnios g166)
À ceux qui, par la persévérance dans les bonnes œuvres, cherchent la gloire, l’honneur et l’immortalité, la vie éternelle; (aiōnios g166)
He did that in order that just like people everywhere inevitably sin, [which results in their] dying [MET, PRS], people everywhere might inevitably experience God’s acting kindly towards them in a way they do not deserve [MET, PRS] by [erasing the record of their sins]. [The result is that people can] live eternally because of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for them]. (aiōnios g166)
Afin que, comme le péché a régné pour la mort, ainsi la grâce règne par la justice pour la vie éternelle par Jésus-Christ Notre Seigneur. (aiōnios g166)
But you have been freed {[God] has freed you} from [letting the desire to] sin control you. You have become [as though you are] [MET] the slaves of God. So now the result is that God has caused you to completely belong to him and, as a result, you will live eternally. (aiōnios g166)
Mais maintenant, affranchis du péché, et faits esclaves de Dieu, vous en avez pour fruit la sanctification, et pour fin, la vie éternelle. (aiōnios g166)
[What people receive for] sinning [is that they are] eternally separated from God. That is [like] wages that [people receive] [MET]. But what God gives us is a gift. What he gives us is that we live eternally because of [our relationship with] (OR, because [we are united to]) Christ Jesus our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
Car la solde du péché est la mort; mais la grâce de Dieu est la vie éternelle dans le Christ Jésus, Notre Seigneur. (aiōnios g166)
It was our ancestors, [Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, whom God chose to found our nation]. And, [most importantly], it was from us Israelites that the Messiah received his human nature. [Nevertheless, most of my fellow Israelites have rejected Christ], who is the one who controls all things! He is God, the one who is worthy that we praise him forever! This is true! (OR, Amen!) (aiōn g165)
Dont les pères sont ceux de qui est sorti, selon la chair, le Christ même qui est au-dessus de toutes choses, Dieu béni dans tous les siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
“Or [you should not think inwardly], ‘(Someone will have to go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are!/Who will go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are?)’ [RHQ]” That is to say, someone will have to [go down and] bring Christ up [from there to bring the message of salvation to us. You should not say that because Christ has already come down to save us, and has already become alive after he died]! (Abyssos g12)
Ou qui descendra dans l’abîme? c’est-à-dire pour rappeler le Christ d’entre les morts. (Abyssos g12)
God has declared and proved that all people, [both Jews and non-Jews] [MET], disobey ([him/his laws]). He has declared that because he wants to act mercifully towards us all. (eleēsē g1653)
Car Dieu a renfermé tout dans l’incrédulité, pour faire miséricorde à tous. (eleēsē g1653)
God [is the one who created] all things. He is also the one who [sustains all things]. The reason that he created them was that [everything he created might praise] him. May [all people] honor him forever! (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
Puisque c’est de lui, et par lui, et en lui, que sont toutes choses; à lui la gloire dans les siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Do not let anything non-Christian determine how you should act. Instead, let God change your [way of life] by making your way of thinking new, in order that you may know what he wants you to do. That is, you will know what is good, and you will know what pleases [God], and you will know how to be all that he wants you to be. (aiōn g165)
Et ne vous conformez point à ce siècle, mais réformez-vous par le renouvellement de votre esprit, afin que vous reconnaissiez combien la volonté de Dieu est bonne, agréable et parfaite. (aiōn g165)
As [I] proclaim [the good message about] Jesus Christ, [I tell about God], the one who is able to strengthen you [spiritually]. I also proclaim the [truth] that was not revealed {which [God] did not reveal} in all previous ages/times (aiōnios g166)
Et à celui qui est puissant pour vous affermir dans mon Evangile et la prédication de Jésus-Christ, selon la révélation d’un mystère qui, étant resté caché dans tous les siècles passés (aiōnios g166)
but which has now been {which [he] has now} revealed. [I, along with others, have proclaimed] what the prophets wrote [about Christ]. We are doing what the eternal God commanded [us(exc)/me to do]. We want [people in] all ethnic groups to know [Christ] so that they can believe [in him] and obey [him]. (aiōnios g166)
(Qui maintenant a été découvert par les écritures des prophètes, suivant l’ordre du Dieu éternel, pour qu’on obéisse à la foi), est connu de toutes les nations, (aiōnios g166)
[I desire that by] Jesus Christ [enabling us, we] will forever praise the one who alone is God, who alone is [truly] wise. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
À Dieu, seul sage, honneur et gloire, à lui par Jésus-Christ dans les siècles des siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
So, do you know [what God thinks] about what [RHQ] people who [IRO] consider themselves to be wise and scholars and philosophers say? [He does not pay attention to what they say, because] [RHQ] he has shown clearly that what unbelievers [think is] [IRO] wise is [not wise at all], but is really foolish. (aiōn g165)
Où est le sage? Où est le Scribe? Où est l’investigateur de ce siècle? Dieu n’a-t-il pas convaincu de folie la sagesse de ce monde? (aiōn g165)
I do teach a message that people who are [spiritually] mature [consider to] be wise. But I do not teach a message that unbelievers [consider to be] wise. I also do not teach a message that unbelieving rulers in the world consider to be wise. [What they think about it does not matter], because [some day] (they will lose their power/not be ruling any more). (aiōn g165)
Cependant nous prêchons la sagesse parmi les parfaits, non la sagesse de ce siècle, ni des princes de ce siècle, qui périssent; (aiōn g165)
Instead, I teach about what God planned wisely [long ago]. It is something that people did not know about previously because [God] did not reveal it previously. But God determined before he created the world that he would greatly benefit us by his wise plan. (aiōn g165)
Mais nous prêchons la sagesse de Dieu dans le mystère, sagesse qui a été cachée, que Dieu a prédestinée pendant les siècles pour notre gloire; (aiōn g165)
None of those who rule this world knew that wise plan. If they had known it, they would not have nailed our wonderful Lord to the cross. (aiōn g165)
Qu’aucun prince de ce siècle n’a connue; car s’ils l’avaient connue, jamais ils n’auraient crucifié le Seigneur de la gloire. (aiōn g165)
Some among you think that you are wise because unbelievers thought you were wise previously. Stop deceiving yourselves. [If you really want to be wise, by accepting what God considers to be wise] you should [be willing to let unbelievers consider that you are] foolish [IRO]. (aiōn g165)
Que personne ne s’abuse: si quelqu’un d’entre vous paraît sage selon ce siècle, qu’il devienne fou pour être sage; (aiōn g165)
So if [I, Paul, think that by] eating a certain food I might cause a fellow believer to be ruined spiritually, I will never eat such food again. I do not want to cause any fellow believer (to be ruined spiritually/to stop believing in Christ). [And you should] ([do as I do/imitate my example]). (aiōn g165)
C’est pourquoi, si ce que je mange scandalise mon frère, je ne mangerai jamais de chair, afin de ne point scandaliser mon frère. (aiōn g165)
All those things [that happened to our ancestors long ago] are examples for us. [Moses] wrote those things to warn us [who are living at this time which is near the end]. We are the people for whom God has done [the things that he decided to do in] the previous periods of time. (aiōn g165)
Or toutes ces choses leur arrivaient en figure, et elles ont été écrites pour nous être un avertissement à nous pour qui est venue la fin des temps. (aiōn g165)
Death [APO] will not win a victory over us. Death will not be able to hurt us. (Hadēs g86)
Ô mort, où est ta victoire? où est, ô mort, ton aiguillon? (Hadēs g86)
[Satan, who is] the one [who rules] this world, controls the thoughts of those unbelievers. He prevents them from understanding the message about how wonderful Christ is. [They are not able to understand that] Jesus is like God [in every way]. (aiōn g165)
Pour les infidèles, dont le Dieu de ce siècle a aveuglé l’esprit, afin que ne brille pas pour eux la lumière de l’Evangile de la gloire du Christ, qui est l’image de Dieu. (aiōn g165)
[I know that] all these troubles that [happen to us in this life are] not significant and will not last forever. [When we think of] the glorious things [that God is preparing] for us [to enjoy] forever [in heaven], all [our suffering now] is not important. (aiōnios g166)
Car les tribulations si courtes et si légères de la vie présente produisent en nous le poids éternel d’une sublime et incomparable gloire; (aiōnios g166)
That is why we say, “We will not continue thinking about [all the suffering that we] are experiencing now. Even though [we] cannot see [all the things that God has prepared for us in heaven], those are what we should be thinking about.” [That is how we should think], because [all these troubles] that [we(exc)] have [now] will last only a short time. But what [we will have in heaven], what [we] cannot see [now], will last forever. (aiōnios g166)
Parce que nous ne considérons point les choses qui se voient, mais celles qui ne se voient pas; car les choses qui se voient sont passagères, mais celles qui ne se voient pas sont éternelles. (aiōnios g166)
We know that [these bodies] we live in [here in this world are like] [MET] tents. [They are like temporary living/dwelling places]. [So we should not be concerned about what happens to our bodies]. We know that if we are killed {if [someone] kills us}, God will give us [permanent living places. Those permanent living places] [MET] will not be houses that people have made. They [will be new bodies in which we will live forever] in heaven. (aiōnios g166)
En effet, nous savons que si cette maison de terre que nous habitons présentement se dissout, nous avons une autre maison construite par Dieu, non par la main des hommes, et éternelle dans les cieux. (aiōnios g166)
[Those who give willingly and cheerfully will be rewarded like the man about whom] it is written {[about whom] (someone/the Psalmist) wrote} in the Scriptures, He generously [helps others], [he gives to those] who are poor. [God will remember] the good things that he did, [and reward him with] good things forever. (aiōn g165)
Comme il est écrit: Il a répandu, il a donné aux pauvres; sa justice demeure dans les siècles des siècles, (aiōn g165)
God, who is the Father of our [(inc)] Lord Jesus, and who is the one [whom we should] praise forever, knows that I am not lying [about this]. (aiōn g165)
Le Dieu et Père de Notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ, qui est béni dans tous les siècles, sait que je ne mens pas. (aiōn g165)
Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] in order that [he might remove the guilt for] our sins. He did that in order that he might enable us to not [do the evil things that people who do not know him] do. [He did this] because God, who is our Father, wanted it. (aiōn g165)
Qui s’est donné lui-même pour nos péchés, afin de nous arracher à ce siècle mauvais, selon la volonté de notre Dieu et Père, (aiōn g165)
[I pray that people will] praise God forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
À qui est la gloire dans les siècles des siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
[God] will punish eternally those who do what their self-directed natures urge them to do. But those who please [God’s] Spirit will live forever [with God] because of what [God’s] Spirit does for them. (aiōnios g166)
Car ce que l’homme aura semé, il le recueillera. Ainsi, celui qui sème dans sa chair recueillera de la chair la corruption; et celui qui sème dans l’esprit recueillera de l’esprit la vie éternelle. (aiōnios g166)
[There], Christ is the supreme ruler over every powerful spirit of every level of authority. His rank is much higher than any powerful spirit can receive, not only now, but forever. (aiōn g165)
Au-dessus de toute principauté, de toute puissance, de toute vertu, de toute domination, et de tout nom qui est nommé non-seulement dans ce siècle, mais aussi dans le futur. (aiōn g165)
You were acting in the same [evil] way as those who oppose Christ [MTY] act. That is, you were behaving in the [evil] ways [that Satan wanted you to behave]. He rules over evil spiritual beings that no person can see [MTY]. He is the spirit who now powerfully controls the people who disobey God. (aiōn g165)
Dans lesquels autrefois vous avez marché, selon la coutume de ce monde, selon le prince des puissances de l’air, de l’esprit qui agit efficacement à cette heure sur les fils de la défiance, (aiōn g165)
in order that he might show to everyone at all times in the future that he has acted toward us in an extremely kind way because of what Christ Jesus [did for us]. (aiōn g165)
Pour manifester dans les siècles à venir les richesses abondantes de sa grâce, par sa bonté pour nous dans le Christ Jésus. (aiōn g165)
and to enable everyone to understand clearly how God accomplished what he planned. God, who created everything, [has now revealed] this message, which he never revealed to anyone before. (aiōn g165)
Et d’éclairer tous les hommes touchant la dispensation du mystère caché, dès l’origine des siècles, en Dieu qui a créé toutes choses; (aiōn g165)
That is what God had always planned, and it is what he accomplished by what our Lord Jesus [has done]. (aiōn g165)
Selon le décret éternel qu’il a accompli dans le Christ Jésus Notre Seigneur, (aiōn g165)
Because of our relationship with Christ Jesus, may all (believers/those who belong to him) praise him forever. (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn g165)
À lui la gloire dans l’Eglise et dans le Christ Jésus, dans toutes les générations du siècle des siècles! Amen. (aiōn g165)
You must do this because the fighting that we [believers] do is not only against human beings [SYN]. Instead, we are also fighting against evil spirits who rule and have authority over all that is evil [MET] in the world. And we are fighting against evil spirits who are in heavenly places (OR, everywhere). (aiōn g165)
Parce que nous n’avons point à lutter contre la chair et le sang, mais contre les princes et les puissances, contre les dominateurs de ce monde de ténèbres, contre les esprits de malice répandus dans l’air. (aiōn g165)
[So], praise God our Father forever and ever! Amen! (aiōn g165)
À Dieu notre Père, gloire dans tous les siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
[We did not know this message previously; that is, God] concealed it from [the people who lived in all] the previous ages, but he has now revealed it to his people. (aiōn g165)
Le mystère qui a été caché dès l’origine des siècles et des générations, et qui est maintenant révélé à ses saints, (aiōn g165)
[Our Lord Jesus] will forbid them from ever coming near to him and near to the glory which he has [because he is so] powerful (OR, the glory that is manifested by his power). He will cause those people to suffer forever. (aiōnios g166)
Lesquels subiront les peines de la perdition éternelle, à la vue de la face du Seigneur et de la gloire de sa puissance; (aiōnios g166)
Our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God, our Father, loves us and encourages us and causes us to confidently expect [to receive] the eternal things that [he has promised to give to us] as a result of [Christ] acting kindly toward us in a way we did not deserve. (aiōnios g166)
Que Notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ lui même, et que notre Dieu et Père, qui nous a aimés et nous a donné une consolation éternelle et une bonne espérance par sa grâce, (aiōnios g166)
Yet Christ Jesus acted mercifully to me in order that he might demonstrate [to people that he is perfectly patient with them]. He did that by his being patient with me, one who has sinned worse than everyone else. He wanted what he did for me (to be an example/to demonstrate his patience) to people who would [later] believe in him, and as a result would live forever. (aiōnios g166)
Mais aussi j’ai obtenu miséricorde, afin qu’en moi, le premier, le Christ Jésus montrât toute sa patience, en sorte que je servisse d’exemple pour ceux qui croiront en lui pour la vie éternelle. (aiōnios g166)
I desire that people will honor and praise the only [true] God forever! Even though no one can see him, he is the King who rules for all time, who will never die! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
Au roi des siècles, immortel, invisible, au seul Dieu, honneur et gloire dans les siècles des siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Try earnestly and with all your energy/strength [MET] to live in accordance with what you believe. [Continue to do your tasks well in order that] you will know for sure that you will live eternally. Remember that [God] chose you to [live with him], and that when many elders were listening you said strongly ([what you believe/that you trust in Christ]). (aiōnios g166)
Combats le bon combat de la foi; remporte la vie éternelle, à laquelle tu as été appelé, ayant si glorieusement confessé la foi devant un grand nombre de témoins. (aiōnios g166)
He is the only one who will never die, [and he lives in heaven surrounded by] light [that is so bright that] no one can approach it! He is the one whom no person has ever seen and whom no person is able to see! My desire is that all people will honor him and that he [will rule] powerfully [MTY] forever! (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōnios g166)
Qui seul possède l’immortalité, et qui habite une lumière inaccessible; qu’aucun homme n’a vu, ni ne peut voir; à qui honneur et empire éternel! Amen. (aiōnios g166)
Tell [the believers] who are rich here in this present world that they should not be proud, and that they should not trust in their many [possessions], because they cannot be certain [how long they will have them]. Teach them that instead of [trusting in their wealth, they should trust] in God. He is the one who generously gives us everything we have in order that we may enjoy it. (aiōn g165)
Ordonne aux riches de ce siècle de ne point s’élever d’orgueil, de ne point se confier en des richesses incertaines, mais dans le Dieu vivant (qui nous donne abondamment toutes choses pour en jouir); (aiōn g165)
[God] saved us and chose us to conduct our lives in a pure way. It was not our doing good deeds/actions [that caused him to do this for us—something] that we did not deserve. Instead, before (time began/he created the world) he purposed/planned to [be kind to us] as a result of what Christ Jesus [would do for us]. (aiōnios g166)
Qui nous a délivrés, et nous a appelés par sa vocation sainte, non selon nos œuvres, mais selon son décret et la grâce qui nous a été donnée dans le Christ Jésus avant le commencement des siècles, (aiōnios g166)
Therefore I [willingly] endure all [that I am suffering] for the sake of those [whom God has] chosen. [I do this] in order that Christ Jesus will save them, too, and that they will be forever with [him in the] glorious [place where he is]. (aiōnios g166)
C’est pourquoi je supporte tout pour les élus, afin qu’eux-mêmes acquièrent le salut qui est en Jésus-Christ avec la gloire céleste. (aiōnios g166)
[I say that] because Demas has left me. He wanted very much [the good things that he might enjoy] [MTY] in this world [right now], and so he went to Thessalonica [city]. Crescens [went to serve the Lord] in Galatia [province], and Titus went to Dalmatia [district]. (aiōn g165)
Car Démas m’a quitté, par amour de ce siècle, et il s’en est allé à Thessalonique; Crescent, en Galatie; Tite, en Dalmatie. (aiōn g165)
[Therefore, I am sure that] the Lord will rescue me from everything that is truly evil and will bring me safely to heaven, where he rules. Praise him forever! (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn g165)
Le Seigneur m’a délivré de toute œuvre mauvaise, et il me sauvera en m’introduisant dans son royaume céleste, lui à qui gloire dans les siècles des siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
[As a result of my doing these things, his people] confidently expect that God will cause them to live forever. God, who never lies, promised before he created the world that [his people] would live forever. (aiōnios g166)
En espérance de la vie éternelle, que Dieu, qui ne ment point, a promise avant tous les siècles, (aiōnios g166)
God teaches/tells us [PRS] how to stop doing what he dislikes, and to stop desiring the things that (ungodly people/people who habitually do things that do not please God) desire [MTY]. He wants us to control our behavior and to do what is right and to do what pleases him while we live in this present age/time. (aiōn g165)
Nous enseignant à renoncer à l’impiété et aux désirs du siècle, et à vivre sobrement, justement et pieusement dans ce monde, (aiōn g165)
He wanted to erase the record of our sins even though we did not deserve that, and he wanted us to receive all that [God desires] to give us. [These are the things that we] confidently expect to receive when we live [with him] eternally. (aiōnios g166)
Afin que, justifiés par sa grâce, nous soyons héritiers selon notre espérance, de la vie éternelle. (aiōnios g166)
Perhaps the reason that [God permitted] Onesimus to be separated from {to leave} you for a little while was that [he would believe in Christ, and as a result] you would have him (back/with you) forever! (aiōnios g166)
Car peut-être t’a-t-il quitté pour un temps, afin que tu le recouvrasses pour jamais, (aiōnios g166)
But now when this final age [is beginning], God has communicated to us [just once] by means of what (his Son/the man who was also God) [said and did. God] appointed him in order that he would possess everything [that truly belongs to God. God also appointed] him in order that he would create the universe. (aiōn g165)
En ces jours, nous a parlé par son Fils, qu’il a établi héritier en toutes choses, par qui il a fait même les siècles; (aiōn g165)
But on the other hand, [in the Scriptures it is written that God said] this to his Son: You [(sg)] who are [also] God will rule forever [MTY], and you will reign righteously over your kingdom [MTY]. (aiōn g165)
Mais au Fils: Votre trône, ô Dieu, est dans les siècles des siècles; un sceptre d’équité est le sceptre de votre empire. (aiōn g165)
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)
Comme aussi dans un autre endroit il dit: Vous êtes prêtre pour l’éternité, selon l’ordre de Melchisédech. (aiōn g165)
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)
Et par sa consommation, il est devenu pour tous ceux qui lui obéissent la cause du salut éternel, (aiōnios g166)
[I am referring to the teaching about what] various [Jewish and Christian] rituals for purifying people [signify. I am referring to the teaching about how elders enable people to receive spiritual gifts by] laying hands [on them] [MTY]. [I am referring to the teaching that God will] ([cause] those who have died to live again/raise people from the dead). And [I am referring to the teaching that God] will judge [some people and punish them] eternally. (aiōnios g166)
De la doctrine des baptêmes, comme aussi de l’imposition des mains, de la résurrection des morts et du jugement éternel. (aiōnios g166)
They have experienced that God’s message is good. And by what they have experienced [now], they know how [God will work] powerfully in the future. If those people reject [the message about Christ], it will not be possible for anyone to persuade them to turn away from their sinful behavior again! (aiōn g165)
Qui ont goûté également la bonne parole de Dieu et les vertus du siècle à venir, (aiōn g165)
Jesus went [into God’s presence] ahead of us [(inc)] to [help] us when he became a Supreme Priest eternally in the way that Melchizedek was a Supreme Priest. (aiōn g165)
Où Jésus, comme précurseur, est entré pour nous, ayant été fait pontife pour l’éternité, selon l’ordre de Melchisédech. (aiōn g165)
[We know this] since [God] confirmed it in [the Scripture passage in which he said to his Son], You [(sg)] are a priest eternally just like Melchizedek was a priest. (aiōn g165)
Car l’Ecriture rend ce témoignage: Vous êtes prêtre pour l’éternité, selon l’ordre de Melchisédech. (aiōn g165)
However, when he [appointed Christ to be a priest], it was by these words that [the Psalmist wrote in Scripture]: The Lord has solemnly declared [to the Messiah], —and he will not change his mind— “You will be a priest forever!” (aiōn g165)
Mais celui-ci Va été avec serment, par celui qui lui a dit: Le Seigneur a juré, et il ne s’en repentira point: Vous êtes prêtre pour l’éternité); (aiōn g165)
But because [Jesus] lives eternally, he will continue to be a Supreme Priest forever. (aiōn g165)
Mais comme celui-ci demeure éternellement, il possède le sacerdoce éternel. (aiōn g165)
[We need a Supreme Priest like] him, because in the laws [that God gave Moses] [PRS] the ones who would be appointed to be priests would be men who tended [to sin easily]. But [God] solemnly [declared] [PRS] after [he had given] his laws [to Moses] that [he would appoint] (his Son/the man who is also God) [to be a Supreme Priest. Now] ([his Son/the man who is also God]) has forever become all that God intends him to be. (aiōn g165)
Car la loi établit pour prêtres des hommes faibles; mais la parole jurée, qui est postérieure à la loi, constitue le Fils éternellement parfait. (aiōn g165)
[When a Supreme Priest goes into the inner room in the tent each year, he takes] goats’ blood and calves’ blood [to offer as a sacrifice]. But Christ did not [do that. It was as though] he went into that very holy place only once, taking his own blood with him. By doing that, he eternally redeemed us. (aiōnios g166)
Et non avec le sang des boucs et des veaux, mais avec son propre sang, qu’il est entré une fois dans le sanctuaire, nous ayant acquis une éternelle rédemption. (aiōnios g166)
[So, because we know what] Christ [accomplished when] his blood flowed [when he died for us] [PRS, MTY], we will be very certain that we are not guilty [of having] done those things [that those who are spiritually] dead do. [As a result], we can serve God, who is all-powerful. [The priests always offer to God animals] with no defects. Similarly, when Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] to God, he was sinless [MET]. He did that as a result of [God’s] eternal Spirit [helping him]. (aiōnios g166)
Combien plus le sang du Christ, qui par l’Esprit-Saint s’est offert lui-même à Dieu, comme une victime sans tache, purifiera-t-il notre conscience des œuvres mortes, pour servir le Dieu vivant? (aiōnios g166)
[By] dying [for us], [Christ] ([redeemed/] free from the penalty for their sins) even those who disobeyed the [conditions of] (OR, [during the time of]) the first covenant. So, [because] no [one could be made perfect by obeying the old covenant], now Christ establishes [between God and people] a new covenant. He does that in order that those whom God has chosen may eternally have [the blessings that God] has promised them. (aiōnios g166)
C’est pourquoi il est le médiateur du nouveau testament, afin que la mort intervenant pour la rédemption des prévarications qui existaient sous le premier testament, ceux qui sont appelés reçoivent l’éternel héritage promis. (aiōnios g166)
[If that were so], he would have needed to suffer [and shed his blood] repeatedly since [the time when God] created the world. But instead, in this final age, [Christ] has appeared once in order that by sacrificing himself he could cause [that people] no longer will be [punished for their] sins. (aiōn g165)
Autrement il aurait fallu qu’il souffrît souvent depuis le commencement du monde, tandis qu’il a paru une seule fois à la consommation des siècles, pour détruire le péché, en se faisant lui-même victime. (aiōn g165)
It is because we trust in God that we understand that he formed the universe by commanding [it to exist]. The result is that the things that we see were not made from things that already existed. (aiōn g165)
C’est par la foi que nous savons que les siècles ont été formés par la parole de Dieu; de manière que ce qui était invisible est devenu visible. (aiōn g165)
Jesus Christ [is] the same now as he was previously, and he will be the same forever. (aiōn g165)
Jésus-Christ était hier, il est aujourd’hui, et il sera le même dans tous les siècles. (aiōn g165)
Jesus [provides for us], [protects us, and guides us as] a great shepherd does for his sheep [MET]. And God, who gives us [inner] peace, brought our Lord Jesus back to life. By doing that, God ratified his eternal covenant with us by the blood [that flowed from Jesus when he died on the] cross. (aiōnios g166)
Que le Dieu de paix, qui, par le sang du testament éternel, a retiré d’entre les morts le grand pasteur des brebis, Notre-Seigneur Jésus-Christ, (aiōnios g166)
So I pray that God will equip you with everything good [that you need in order] that you may do the things that he desires. May he accomplish in our lives whatever he considers pleasing as a result of Jesus Christ [equipping us]. May Jesus Christ be praised forever. (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn g165)
Vous rende propres à tout bien, afin que vous fassiez sa volonté; lui-même faisant eu vous ce qui lui est agréable, par Jésus-Christ à qui est la gloire dans les siècle des siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
[Just like a fire damages a forest] [MET], when we say things that are evil, [we harm many people]. What we say [MTY] reveals that we are very evil. What we say contaminates/defiles everything that we think and do [PRS, MET]. [Just like a flame of fire easily] causes [the whole surrounding area] [MET] to burn, what we say [MTY] can cause [others] to want to do evil. It is the devil himself [MTY] who causes us to say evil things. (Geenna g1067)
La langue aussi est un feu, un monde d’iniquité. La langue est placée parmi nos membres, et souille tout le corps, et enflamme tout le cours de notre vie, enflammée elle-même par la géhenne. (Geenna g1067)
[I ask you to do this, because you now have] a new life [MET]. It was not [by means of] something that will perish that you received this new life. Instead, it was [by means of] something that will last forever; that is, by believing the life-giving and enduring message of God. (aiōn g165)
Etant nés de nouveau, non d’une semence corruptible, mais incorruptible, par la parole du Dieu vivant et qui demeure éternellement. (aiōn g165)
but God’s message endures/lasts forever. This message [that endures/lasts] is the message [about Christ] that was proclaimed to you. (aiōn g165)
Mais la parole du Seigneur demeure éternellement; or c’est cette parole qui a été annoncée parmi vous. (aiōn g165)
Those who speak [to the congregation] should do that as though they are speaking the [very] words of God. Those who do kind things to others should do it with the strength that God gives them, in order that God may be honored by all this {that all this may honor God} as Jesus Christ [enables us to do it. I pray that we will] praise [God] (OR, [Jesus]) and allow him [to rule over us] forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
Si quelqu’un parle, que ce soit comme des paroles de Dieu; si quelqu’un exerce un ministère, qu’il le fasse comme par la vertu que Dieu donne; afin qu’en toutes choses Dieu soit glorifié par Jésus-Christ, à qui est la gloire et l’empire dans les siècles des siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
God is the one who kindly helps us in every [situation], and [he is the one] who chose us to share his eternal glory/greatness [in heaven] because of our relationship with Christ. [And] after you have suffered for a while [because of things that people do to harm you], he will remove your spiritual defects/imperfections, he will strengthen you [spiritually] [DOU], and he will support you [emotionally]. (aiōnios g166)
Mais le Dieu de toute grâce, qui nous a appelés par le Christ Jésus à son éternelle gloire, après que vous aurez souffert un peu de temps, vous perfectionnera lui-même, vous fortifiera et vous affermira. (aiōnios g166)
[I pray/desire that] he will [rule] powerfully forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
À lui la gloire et l’empire dans les siècles des siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
and [God] will very wholeheartedly welcome you into the place where our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will rule [his people] forever. (aiōnios g166)
Et par ce moyen, vous sera largement donnée l’entrée au royaume éternel de Notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ. (aiōnios g166)
God destroyed [LIT] the angels who sinned. He threw them into the worst place in hell and imprisoned them [there] in darkness in order to keep them there until he judges [and punishes them]. (Tartaroō g5020)
Car si Dieu n’a pas épargné les anges qui ont péché; mais si, chargés des chaînes de l’enfer et précipités dans l’abîme, il les a livrés afin d’être tourmentés et réservés pour le jugement; (Tartaroō g5020)
[Instead, live in such a manner that you] experience more and more our Savior Jesus Christ being kind [to you], and that you get to know him [better and better]. 2 Peter 3:18b [I pray/desire that Jesus Christ] will be honored both now and forever! (aiōn g165)
Croissez au contraire dans la grâce et dans la connaissance de Notre Seigneur et Sauveur Jésus-Christ. À lui la gloire, et maintenant, et jusqu’au jour de l’éternité. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Because he came here [to the earth] and we have seen him, we proclaim to you clearly that the one whom we have seen is the [one who] has always lived. He was [previously] with his Father in heaven, but he came to live among us. (aiōnios g166)
(Car la vie s’est manifestée, nous l’avons vue, nous l’attestons, et nous vous l’annonçons, cette vie éternelle qui nous est apparue); (aiōnios g166)
The [godless people in] the world [MTY], along with what they desire, will disappear, but those who do what God wants [them to do] will live forever! You know that it is now the final period of this age when there are liars who deny that Jesus is God’s Chosen One. But you have the power of God’s Spirit and you know what is true and what is false. So continue to live according to the true message that you heard when you began to believe in Christ, in order that you may continue to live united both to God’s Son and to the Father. (aiōn g165)
Or le monde passe, et sa concupiscence aussi; mais celui qui fait la volonté de Dieu demeure éternellement. (aiōn g165)
And what God told us is that [he will cause us] to live forever! (aiōnios g166)
Et la promesse qu’il nous a faite lui-même, c’est la vie éternelle. (aiōnios g166)
Those who hate [any of] their fellow believers, [God considers] [MET] them [to be] murderers. And you know that no murderer has eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Quiconque hait son frère est homicide. Or vous savez qu’aucun homicide n’a la vie éternelle demeurant en lui. (aiōnios g166)
This is what [God] says [to us]: “I have given you eternal life!” We will live forever if we have a close relationship with his Son. (aiōnios g166)
Et ce témoignage est que Dieu nous a donné la vie éternelle. Or cette vie est dans son Fils. (aiōnios g166)
I have written this [letter] to you who believe that Jesus is [MTY] (God’s Son/the one who is also God) in order that you may know that you have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Je vous écris ces choses afin que vous sachiez que vous avez la vie éternelle, vous qui croyez au nom du Fils de Dieu. (aiōnios g166)
We also know that (God’s Son/the one who is also God) has come [to us], and [we know] that he has enabled us to know God, the one who is really/truly God. So now we have a close relationship with [God because] we belong to Jesus Christ, the one who is the (Son of/man who is also) God. Jesus Christ is truly God, and [he is the one who enables us to have] eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Nous savons encore que le Fils de Dieu est venu, et nous a donné l’intelligence, pour que nous connaissions le vrai Dieu, et que nous soyons en son vrai Fils. C’est lui qui est le vrai Dieu et la vie éternelle. (aiōnios g166)
All of us [believe God’s] true message. It is in our ([inner beings/hearts]) and we will continue [to believe it] forever! (aiōn g165)
À cause de la vérité qui demeure en nous, et qui sera avec nous éternellement. (aiōn g165)
And there were [many] angels to [whom God assigned/gave positions of authority in heaven]. But many did not continue to rule with authority [in those positions]. Instead, they abandoned the place that [God] gave them to live [in heaven]. So God has put those angels in chains forever in the darkness [in hell. They will stay there] until the great day when [God] will judge [and punish] them. (aïdios g126, questioned)
Que, quant aux anges qui ne conservèrent pas leur première dignité, mais qui abandonnèrent leur propre demeure, il les mit en réserve pour le jugement du grand jour, dans des chaînes éternelles et de profondes ténèbres. (aïdios g126)
Similarly, the people who lived [MTY] in Sodom and Gomorrah [cities] and the nearby cities committed sexual immorality. They sought all kinds of sexual relations that differ [from what God permits. So God destroyed their cities. What happened to those people and those angels] shows that [God will] punish [people, such as the ones who teach false doctrine], in the eternal fire [of hell]. (aiōnios g166, questioned)
C’est ainsi que Sodome et Gomorrhe, et les villes voisines livrées aux mêmes excès d’impureté, et courant après d’infâmes débauches, sont devenues un exemple, en souffrant la peine d’un feu éternel. (aiōnios g166)
They are [restless] [MET], [like] the pounding waves of the ocean. [Just like] waves [produce foul-smelling] foam on the shore, [those teachers of false doctrine do] shameful [MTY] [deeds. We cannot depend/rely on them to show us how to conduct our lives] [MET], [just like we cannot depend/rely on] (meteors/falling stars) [to show us the way when we travel]. [God] has reserved intense darkness for them forever [in hell]. (aiōn g165, questioned)
Vagues furieuses de la mer, jetant l’écume de leurs infamies; astres errants auxquels une tempête de ténèbres est réservée pour l’éternité. (aiōn g165)
Keep conducting your lives in [a way that is appropriate for those whom] God loves. Keep constantly expecting that our Lord Jesus Christ will [act] mercifully toward you. Keep expecting that until [the time when we begin] living eternally [with him]. (aiōnios g166)
Conservez-vous dans l’amour de Dieu, attendant la miséricorde de Notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ pour la vie éternelle. (aiōnios g166)
He is the only true God. He has saved us as a result of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for us]. God was glorious and great and mighty and he [ruled] with great authority before time began. [He is still like that], and [he will remain like that] forever! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
Au seul Dieu notre Sauveur, par Jésus-Christ Notre Seigneur, gloire et magnificence, empire et puissance, avant tous les siècles, et maintenant, et dans tous les siècles des siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
He is [the one who] has caused us to become people whose lives God rules, and he has made us to be priests [who serve] God his Father. [As a result of this, we acknowledge that] Jesus Christ is eternally divine and eternally powerful. (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
Et nous a faits le royaume et les prêtres de Dieu son Père: à lui la gloire et l’empire dans les siècles des siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
The living [creatures praise], honor [DOU], and thank the one who sits on the throne, the one who lives forever. (aiōn g165)
Et lorsque ces animaux rendaient ainsi gloire, honneur et bénédiction à celui qui est assis sur le trône, qui vit dans les siècles des siècles, (aiōn g165)
Whenever they do that, the 24 elders (prostrate themselves/kneel down) before the one who sits on the throne, and they worship him, the one who lives forever. They lay their crowns in front of the throne and sing: (aiōn g165)
Les vingt-quatre vieillards se prosternaient devant celui qui est assis sur le trône, et ils adoraient celui qui vit dans les siècles des siècles, et ils jetaient leurs couronnes devant le trône, disant: (aiōn g165)
I also heard every creature that is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the ocean, every creature in all those places, saying (OR, singing): “We must forever praise and honor the one who sits on the throne and the one who is like a lamb, May they reign with complete power forever!” (aiōn g165)
Et j’entendis toutes les créatures qui sont dans le ciel, sur la terre, sous la terre, et celles qui sont sur la mer et en elle; je les entendis tous disant: À celui qui est assis sur le trône et à l’Agneau, bénédiction, honneur, gloire et puissance dans les siècles des siècles! (aiōn g165)
This time I saw a pale horse [come out]. The one who sat on it is named ‘[The one who causes] death [PRS]’, and [the one that is named ‘The place where dead people go’] accompanied him. [God] gave them authority over one quarter of the people on earth to incite them to kill each other with weapons [SYN], and also authority to kill them (by [causing them to] starve, by [their causing them to become] sick from epidemics, and by [their causing them to be attacked by] wild animals. (Hadēs g86)
Et voilà un cheval pâle; et celui qui le montait s’appelait la Mort, et l’enfer le suivait; et il lui fut donné puissance sur les quatre parties de la terre, de tuer par l’épée, par la famine, par la mortalité et par les bêtes sauvages. (Hadēs g86)
They said, “May it be so! [We(exc)] praise, thank, and honor [you], our [(exc)] God, forever! [We(exc) acknowledge] that you are completely wise, the powerful one, who is forever able to accomplish everything he wants to. (May everyone acknowlege that it is so!/Amen!)” (aiōn g165)
Disant: Amen; la bénédiction, la gloire, la sagesse, l’action de grâces, l’honneur, la puissance et la force à notre Dieu dans les siècles des siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
The fifth angel blew his trumpet. Then I saw [an evil angel. He was like] a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. He was given {[Someone] gave him} the key to the shaft [that descended] ([to] the underworld/[to] the deep dark pit). (Abyssos g12)
Le cinquième ange sonna de la trompette, et je vis qu’une étoile était tombée du ciel sur la terre; et la clef du puits de l’abîme lui fut donnée. (Abyssos g12)
When he opened that shaft, smoke arose from it like smoke from a huge burning furnace. The smoke prevented [anyone from seeing] the sky and the light of the sun. (Abyssos g12)
Et elle ouvrit le puits de l’abîme, et la fumée du puits monta comme la fumée d’une grande fournaise; et le soleil et l’air furent obscurcis par la fumée du puits. (Abyssos g12)
The king who ruled over them was the angel of the underworld. His name in the Hebrew language is Abaddon. In the Greek language it is Apollyon. [Both of] those names [mean ‘Destroyer’]. (Abyssos g12)
Elles avaient au-dessus d’elles, pour roi, l’ange de l’abîme, dont le nom en hébreu est Abaddon, en grec Apollyon, et qui s’appelle en latin l’Exterminateur. (Abyssos g12)
and he asked the one who lives forever, the one who created heaven and everything that is in it, [who created] the earth and everything that is in it, and [who created] the ocean and everything that is in it, to affirm that what he said was true. [He said that he] would surely no longer delay [what he had planned to do]. (aiōn g165)
Et jura par celui qui vit dans les siècles des siècles, qui a créé le ciel et ce qui est dans le ciel, la terre et ce qui est dans la terre, la mer et ce qui est dans la mer, disant: Il n’y aura plus de temps; (aiōn g165)
When they have finished proclaiming [to people the message from God], the beast that comes up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit) will attack them, overcome them, and kill them. (Abyssos g12)
Et quand ils auront achevé leur témoignage, la bête qui monte de l’abîme leur fera la guerre, les vaincra et les tuera, (Abyssos g12)
Then the seventh angel blew [his trumpet]. Angels in heaven shouted loudly, “Our Lord [God] and the Messiah [whom he has appointed] can now govern [everyone in] [MTY] the world, and they will continue to rule people forever!” (aiōn g165)
Le septième ange sonna de la trompette; et le ciel retentit de grandes voix, qui disaient: Le royaume de ce monde est devenu le royaume de Notre Seigneur et de son Christ, et il régnera dans les siècles des siècles. Amen. (aiōn g165)
I saw another angel that was flying between the sky and heaven. He was bringing [God’s] eternal good message [to earth], in order that he might proclaim it to people who live on the earth. He will proclaim it to every nation, [to every] tribe, [to speakers of every] language [MTY], and [to every] people-[group]. (aiōnios g166)
Je vis un autre ange qui volait dans le milieu du ciel, ayant l’Evangile éternel pour évangéliser ceux qui habitent sur la terre, toute nation, toute tribu, toute langue et tout peuple; (aiōnios g166)
The smoke [from the fire] that torments them will rise forever. [They will] be tormented {[God will] torment them} continually, day and night. [That is what will happen to] the people who worship the beast and its image and who allow its name to be marked on them {allow [its agent] to mark them with its name}.” (aiōn g165)
Et la fumée de leurs tourments montera dans les siècles des siècles; et ils n’ont de repos ni jour ni nuit, ceux qui ont adoré la bête et son image, ni celui qui a reçu le caractère de son nom. (aiōn g165)
One of the four living [creatures] gave [each of] the seven angels a golden bowl, filled with [wine/liquid. That wine/liquid symbolized] that God, who lives forever, would severely punish [rebellious people]. (aiōn g165)
Alors un des quatre animaux donna aux sept anges sept coupes d’or pleines de la colère du Dieu qui vit dans les siècles des siècles. (aiōn g165)
The beast that you saw [lived] previously. Eventually God will destroy him, but now he is dead. He is [about to] come up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit). [When] the beast who had previously lived, and who then had died, reappears, the people who live on the earth will be amazed. [They are people whose] names were not in the book in which are written the names of people [who will] have eternal life. [The angels have been writing those names in a list] (from the beginning of the world/from the time when the world began). (Abyssos g12)
La bête que tu as vue, a été et elle n’est plus; elle doit monter de l’abîme, et elle ira à la perdition, et les habitants de la terre (dont les noms ne sont pas écrits dans le livre de vie dès la fondation du monde) seront dans l’étonnement, en voyant la bête qui était et qui n’est plus. (Abyssos g12)
[The crowd] shouted a second time saying: (Hallelujah!/Praise God!) The smoke of the fire that is burning the cities will rise forever! (aiōn g165)
Et une seconde fois ils dirent: Alléluia. Et sa fumée monte dans les siècles des siècles. (aiōn g165)
The beast and the false prophet were captured {[He] captured the beast and the false prophet}. The false prophet is the one who had performed miracles in the beast’s presence. By doing that he had deceived the people who had accepted the beast’s mark [on their foreheads] and who worshipped its image. The beast and the false prophet were thrown {[He] threw the beast and the one who falsely said that he spoke messages that came directly from God} alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
I saw an angel coming down from heaven. He had the key to the deep dark pit, and he was carrying a large chain in his hand. (Abyssos g12)
Et je vis un ange qui descendait du ciel, ayant la clef de l’abîme, et une grande chaîne en sa main. (Abyssos g12)
The angel threw him into the deep dark pit. He shut [the door of the pit], locked it, and sealed it [to prevent anyone from opening it]. He did that in order that Satan might no longer deceive [the people of the] nations [MTY], until those 1,000 years are ended. After that [time], Satan must be released {[God/God’s angel] must release Satan} for a short time [in order that he can do what God has planned]. (Abyssos g12)
Et il le jeta dans l’abîme, et l’y enferma, et il mit un sceau sur lui, afin qu’il ne séduisît plus les nations, jusqu’à ce que fussent accomplis les mille ans; car après ces mille ans il faut qu’il soit délié pour un peu de temps. (Abyssos g12)
The devil, who had deceived those people, will be thrown {[God’s angel] will throw the devil, who had deceived those people} into the lake of burning sulfur. [This is the same lake] into which both the beast and the false prophet had been [thrown] {[he] had [thrown] both the beast and the false prophet}. [As a result], they will continually suffer severely forever. (aiōn g165, Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
[The people whose bodies were buried in the] sea [became alive again in order to stand before God’s throne]. Everyone who had been buried on the land (OR, Every person who was waiting in the place where dead people stay) [became alive again, in order to stand before the throne]. [God] judged each one of them according to what each one had done. (Hadēs g86)
La mer rendit les morts qui étaient en elle; la mort et l’enfer rendirent aussi les morts qui étaient en eux; et ils furent jugés chacun selon ses œuvres. (Hadēs g86)
But those who are cowardly, those who do not believe [in me], those [who do] detestable things, those who are murderers, those who sin sexually, those who commit sorcery, those who worship idols, and every liar, will [all suffer] in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. [Anyone who suffers in that lake] will be dying the second time.” (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
There will never again be night. [God’s servants] will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, because the Lord God will shine his light upon them. And they will rule forever. (aiōn g165)
Il n’y aura plus là de nuit, et ils n’auront pas besoin de lampe, ni de la lumière du soleil, parce que le Seigneur les éclairera, et ils régneront dans les siècles des siècles. (aiōn g165)
Questioned verse translations do not contain Aionian Glossary words, but may wrongly imply eternal or Hell

[Because he is] superior to me, I am not worthy [even to do a menial task for him, such as] to carry his sandals. He will put [his] Holy Spirit [within] you [to truly change] the way you live [MET], and [he will judge others of you and punish you in] the fire [in hell]. (questioned)
“[Going to] where people live eternally [with God in heaven] is difficult. [It is like] going along a narrow road [PRS, MET] that leads to a narrow gate. Not many people find that way. [The way] that most [people take] is easy, [but it results in their being punished] {[God punishing them]} [in hell. That way is like a] wide road that people walk on [PRS, MET] until they reach the wide gate, but that road and that gate lead to where [they] will be destroyed {[God] will destroy them}. Many people enter that gate. So I [am telling you to leave the wide road and] enter the narrow gate [to heaven].” (questioned)
[And] all the trees that do not produce good fruit are chopped down and burned in a fire {people chop them down and burn them in a fire} [to get rid of them].

“You [people who live in] Chorazin [city] [MTY] and you [people who live in] Bethsaida [city] [MTY] will suffer terribly in hell!

If the miracles that I performed in your [cities] had been done in [the ancient cities of] Tyre and Sidon, the [wicked people who lived there] long ago would have sat in ashes, wearing coarse cloth [to show that they were sorry for their sins]. (questioned)
They will throw those people into the fires of [hell]. There those people will weep and grind their teeth [because of the great pain that they are suffering]. (questioned)
They will throw the wicked people into the fire [in hell]. And those wicked people will weep and gnash their teeth [because of the intense pain they are suffering].” (questioned)
Do not pay any attention to [the Pharisees]. They [do not help people who do not know God’s truth] to [understand it, just like] blind guides [do not help] blind [people to perceive where they should go] [MET]. If a blind person [tries to] lead [another] blind person, they will both fall into a big hole [MET]. [Similarly, both the Pharisees and their disciples will end up in hell].” (questioned)
In the same way [that shepherds do not want one of] their [sheep to stray away], so [God], your Father in heaven, does not want [even] one of these children to go to hell.” (questioned)
John replied to them all, “No, [I am not]. I used [only] water when I baptized you. But [the Messiah] will soon come! He is far greater than I am. [He is so great that] I am not worthy to [be like his slave and] untie his sandals [MET] [like] a slave would do!

If [the things that we have taught] are not valuable and long-lasting [MET], [we will not get a reward]. We will be saved {[God] will save us} [from hell], but [that is all that we will get. We will be like a man who] escapes from a fire [without saving any of his possessions]. (questioned)
And those people who died [EUP] [while they were trusting] in Christ will go to hell. (questioned)
To those who [are on the way to hell, our message is like] [MET] a foul smell [because it is about dying] and being separated from God forever. But, to those [on the way to heaven, the message that we teach is like] a pure fragrant smell, [because we tell them] that they will live [forever with God. As we think about that, we think] (no one is able [to do] such important work [for God!]/how can anyone be able [to do] such important work [for God]?) [RHQ] (questioned)
