< Romans 16 >
1 [By means of this letter] I am introducing and recommending to you our fellow believer Phoebe, [who will be taking this letter to you]. She is a deacon in the congregation in Cenchrea [city].
Or je vous recommande Phœbé, notre sœur, qui est servante de l’assemblée qui est à Cenchrée,
2 [I request that] you receive her because of her relationship with the Lord. [You should do that because] those who are God’s people ought to receive [their fellow believers]. [I am also requesting] that you help her [by giving her] [EUP] whatever she needs, because she has helped many people, including me.
afin que vous la receviez dans le Seigneur, comme il convient à des saints, et que vous l’assistiez dans toute affaire pour laquelle elle aurait besoin de vous; car elle-même aussi a été en aide à plusieurs, et à moi-même.
3 Tell Priscilla and [her husband] Aquila that I (send greetings to/am thinking fondly of) them. They worked with me for Christ Jesus,
Saluez Prisca et Aquilas, mes compagnons d’œuvre dans le christ Jésus
4 and they were even willing to die [IDM] in order [to save] my life. It is not only I who thank them [for helping me], but the people in all [HYP] the non-Jewish congregations also [thank them for saving my life].
(qui, pour ma vie, ont exposé leur propre cou; auxquels je ne rends pas grâces moi seul, mais aussi toutes les assemblées des nations),
5 Also tell the congregation [that meets] in their house that I (send my greetings to/am thinking fondly of) them. Tell my dear friend Epaenetus the same thing. He is the first man in Asia [province] who [believed] in Christ.
et l’assemblée qui [se réunit] dans leur maison. Saluez Épaïnète, mon bien-aimé, qui est les prémices de l’Asie pour Christ.
6 Tell Mary, who has worked hard [for Christ] in order to [help] you, that I (send my greetings to/am thinking fondly of) her.
Saluez Marie, qui a beaucoup travaillé pour vous.
7 Tell the same thing to Andronicus and [his wife] Junia (OR, and [his sister] Junia) who are my fellow Jews and who were also [previously] in prison with me. They are well-known/respected (OR, respected by the) apostles, and they became Christians before I did.
Saluez Andronique et Junias, mes parents et mes compagnons de captivité, qui sont distingués parmi les apôtres, qui même ont été avant moi en Christ.
8 I also send my greetings to Ampliatus, who is a dear friend because of his relationship with the Lord.
Saluez Amplias, mon bien-aimé dans le Seigneur.
9 I also send my greetings to Urbanus, who works for Christ with us, and to my dear friend Stachys.
Saluez Urbain, notre compagnon d’œuvre en Christ, et Stachys, mon bien-aimé.
10 I also send my greetings to Apelles, whom Christ has approved [because Apelles successfully endured trials]. Tell the [believers] who [live in the house] of Aristobulus that I send my greetings to them.
Saluez Appellès, approuvé en Christ. Saluez ceux de chez Aristobule.
11 Also tell Herodion, who is my fellow Jew, that I send my greetings to him. Tell the same thing to those who [live in the house] of Narcissus who belong to the Lord.
Saluez Hérodion, mon parent. Saluez ceux de chez Narcisse qui sont dans le Seigneur.
12 Tell the same thing to Tryphaena and [her sister] Tryphosa, who work hard for the Lord. I also send my greetings to Persis. [We all] love her and she has worked very hard for the Lord.
Saluez Tryphène et Tryphose, lesquelles travaillent dans le Seigneur. Saluez Persis, la bien-aimée, qui a beaucoup travaillé dans le Seigneur.
13 Tell Rufus, who is an outstanding Christian, that I send my greetings to him. [Tell the same thing to] his mother, [who has treated me as though] I [were her son] [MET].
Saluez Rufus, l’élu dans le Seigneur, et sa mère, qui est aussi la mienne.
14 Tell Asyncritus and Phlegon and Hermes and Patrobas and Hermas and the fellow believers who [meet] with them that I am sending my greetings to them.
Saluez Asyncrite, Phlégon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermès, et les frères qui sont avec eux.
15 I also send my greetings to Philologus, to [his wife] Julia (OR, [his sister] Julia), to Nereus and his sister, and to Olympas, and to all God’s people who [meet] with them.
Saluez Philologue, et Julie, Nérée et sa sœur, et Olympas, et tous les saints qui sont avec eux.
16 Greet one another affectionately, but in a pure way, [when you gather together]. The [believers in] all the Christian congregations [HYP] [in this area (send their] greetings to/say they are thinking fondly of) you.
Saluez-vous les uns les autres par un saint baiser. Toutes les assemblées du Christ vous saluent.
17 My fellow believers, I exhort you that you beware of those people who are causing divisions among you and who cause people to turn away [from God] [MTY] [because they teach things that] are contrary to the message [about Christ] that you have learned (OR, that others taught you). Keep away from such people!
Or je vous exhorte, frères, à avoir l’œil sur ceux qui causent les divisions et les occasions de chute par [des choses qui ne sont] pas selon la doctrine que vous avez apprise; et éloignez-vous d’eux.
18 They do not serve our Lord Christ! On the contrary, they only want to satisfy their own desires [MTY]! Also, by all the eloquent things that they say [DOU] they deceive those people who do not realize [that their teaching is false].
Car ces sortes de gens ne servent pas notre seigneur Christ, mais leur propre ventre; et par de douces paroles et un beau langage, ils séduisent les cœurs des simples.
19 [Believers] everywhere know that you have paid attention to [the good message about Christ], with the result that I rejoice about you. But I also want you to be wise, [with the result that you do] what is good. I also want you to avoid doing what is evil.
Car votre obéissance est venue à [la connaissance de] tous. Je me réjouis donc à votre sujet; mais je désire que vous soyez sages quant au bien, et simples quant au mal.
20 [If you avoid people who teach what is false], what will [soon happen] [MET] [will be as though] God, who causes us to be peaceful, will be crushing Satan under your feet! [I pray that] our Lord Jesus will continue to act kindly towards you.
Or le Dieu de paix brisera bientôt Satan sous vos pieds. Que la grâce de notre seigneur Jésus Christ soit avec vous!
21 Timothy, who works with me, and Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, who are my fellow Jews, [want you to know that they are] (sending their greetings to/thinking fondly of) you.
Timothée, mon compagnon d’œuvre, et Lucius, et Jason, et Sosipater, mes parents, vous saluent.
22 I, Tertius, [one who belongs to] the Lord, [also want you to know] that I am (sending my greetings to/thinking fondly of) you. [I am writing this letter as Paul tells me what to write for him].
Moi, Tertius, qui ai écrit la lettre, je vous salue dans le Seigneur.
23 I, [Paul], am staying in the house of Gaius, and the whole congregation [here meets] in his house. He [also wants you to know] that he is (sending his greetings to/thinking fondly of) you. Erastus, the treasurer of [this] city, also [wants you to know that] he is (sending his greetings to/thinking fondly of) you. Our fellow believer Quartus also (sends his greetings to you./says he is thinking fondly of you.)
Gaïus, mon hôte et celui de toute l’assemblée, vous salue. Éraste, l’administrateur de la ville, et le frère Quartus vous saluent.
Que la grâce de notre seigneur Jésus Christ soit avec vous tous! Amen.
25 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 )
Or, à celui qui est puissant pour vous affermir selon mon évangile et la prédication de Jésus Christ, selon la révélation du mystère à l’égard duquel le silence a été gardé dès les temps éternels, (aiōnios )
26 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 )
mais qui a été manifesté maintenant, et qui, par des écrits prophétiques, a été donné à connaître à toutes les nations, selon le commandement du Dieu éternel, pour [l’]obéissance de [la] foi, … (aiōnios )
27 [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 )
au Dieu qui seul est sage, par Jésus Christ, – auquel soit la gloire éternellement! Amen. (aiōn )
