Romans 5
1 Because we trusted [in Christ], the record of our sins has been erased {[God] has erased the record of our sins}. So we [now] have a peaceful relationship with God because of our trust in what our Lord Jesus Christ [has done for us].
Ayant donc été justifiés sur le principe de la foi, nous avons la paix avec Dieu par notre seigneur Jésus Christ,
2 Because of [what] Christ [has done], God has also enabled us to begin experiencing his continually acting toward us in ways that we do not deserve. Also, we rejoice because we are confidently expecting that God [will gladly show] us how great he is.
par lequel nous avons trouvé aussi accès, par la foi, à cette faveur dans laquelle nous sommes, et nous nous glorifions dans l’espérance de la gloire de Dieu.
3 We rejoice even when we suffer [as a result of our trusting in Christ], because we know that when we are suffering, the result is that we learn to endure things [patiently].
Et non seulement [cela], mais aussi nous nous glorifions dans les tribulations, sachant que la tribulation produit la patience,
4 And [we know] that when we endure things [patiently], the result is that [God] approves [of us]. And when we [know that God] approves [of us], the result is that we confidently expect [that he will do great things for us].
et la patience l’expérience, et l’expérience l’espérance;
5 And we are very confident [PRS] that we will receive the things that we wait expectantly [for], because God loves us very much. His Holy Spirit, who has been {whom [he] has} given to us, [causes] us to understand how much God loves us.
et l’espérance ne rend point honteux, parce que l’amour de Dieu est versé dans nos cœurs par l’Esprit Saint qui nous a été donné.
6 When we were unable [to save ourselves], it was Christ who, at the time [that God chose], died on behalf of [us] ungodly [people].
Car Christ, alors que nous étions encore sans force, au temps convenable, est mort pour des impies.
7 Rarely would anyone die on behalf of another person, [even if] that person were righteous, although someone might be courageous enough to die on behalf of a truly good person person.
Car à peine, pour un juste, quelqu’un mourra-t-il, (car pour l’homme de bien, peut-être, quelqu’un se résoudrait même à mourir);
8 Nevertheless, as for God, the way he showed us that he loves us is that Christ died on our behalf while we were still rebelling against God.
mais Dieu constate son amour à lui envers nous, en ce que, lorsque nous étions encore pécheurs, Christ est mort pour nous.
9 The record of our sins has been erased {[God] has erased the record of our sins} because of [what Christ accomplished when] his blood [MTY] [flowed when he died]. So it is even more certain that we will be saved by Christ {that Christ will save us} from God’s punishing us [eternally] [MTY].
Beaucoup plutôt donc, ayant été maintenant justifiés par son sang, serons-nous sauvés de la colère par lui.
10 Even when we were acting hostilely towards God, he enabled us to have a peaceful relationship with him as a result of his Son dying [for us]. So it is even more certain that we will be saved {Christ will be able to save us} [from God’s punishing us] [MTY] because Christ is alive [again] and because [God] has enabled us to have a peaceful relationship [with himself].
Car si, étant ennemis, nous avons été réconciliés avec Dieu par la mort de son Fils, beaucoup plutôt, ayant été réconciliés, serons-nous sauvés par sa vie.
11 And that’s not all! Now we also rejoice about [the things that] God [has done for us] because of our Lord Jesus Christ [dying for us] and enabling us to have a peaceful relationship with God.
Et non seulement [cela], mais aussi nous nous glorifions en Dieu par notre seigneur Jésus Christ, par lequel nous avons maintenant reçu la réconciliation.
12 [What you can learn from what I have written so far is as follows]: All people are sinful [PRS], and that is the result of [Adam, the first] man whom [God created, sinning long ago]. Adam died [PRS] because he sinned. So, all people [who have lived since then] die, because [it is as though] all people sinned [when Adam sinned].
C’est pourquoi, comme par un seul homme le péché est entré dans le monde, et par le péché la mort, et qu’ainsi la mort a passé à tous les hommes, en ce que tous ont péché…
13 [People in] [MTY] the world sinned before [God gave his] laws [to Moses]. But people are not considered [by God] {[God] does not consider people} to be guilty for their sins if there is no law [stating that what they did was sinful].
(car jusqu’à [la] loi [le] péché était dans le monde; mais [le] péché n’est pas mis en compte quand il n’y a pas de loi;
14 But [we know] that from [the time when] Adam [lived] until [the time when] Moses [lived], all people sinned, and they died [as a consequence] [PRS, MET]. Even people who sinned differently from the way Adam [sinned, died]. [Adam’s sin] affected [all people], just like what [Christ did], the one who came later, can affect all people.
mais la mort régna depuis Adam jusqu’à Moïse, même sur ceux qui ne péchèrent pas selon la ressemblance de la transgression d’Adam, qui est la figure de celui qui devait venir.
15 But [the results of God’s erasing the record of our sins as] a gift to us are not like [the results of Adam’s] sinning. The result of one man, [Adam], sinning was that many/all people have died. But [it is certain], [however], that many people have abundantly experienced God’s acting kindly toward them in a way they did not deserve. [It is also certain] that they have experienced God’s erasing the record of their sins as the result of one man, Jesus Christ, acting kindly toward them/towards them in a way they did not deserve.
Mais n’en est-il pas du don de grâce comme de la faute? car si, par la faute d’un seul, plusieurs sont morts, beaucoup plutôt la grâce de Dieu et le don ont abondé envers plusieurs, par la grâce qui est d’un seul homme, Jésus Christ.
16 And [there is another way in which God’s] freely [erasing the record of our sins] is not like [the results of Adam’s] sinning. One person, [Adam, sinned]. As a result, God declared that all people deserve to be punished. Many people sinned. But what God did was that he erased the record of their sins without their earning it.
Et n’en est-il pas du don comme [de ce qui est arrivé] par un seul qui a péché? car le jugement vient d’un seul en condamnation, – mais le don de grâce, de plusieurs fautes, en justification.
17 All people die [MET, PRS] because of what one man, [Adam], did. But now many of us experience that God has abundantly acted towards us in ways we did not deserve, and we experience that he has erased the record of our sins without our earning it. It is also very certain that we will rule [with Christ] (OR, share [the glory] of Christ’s being king), [in heaven. This will happen] because of [what] one man, Jesus Christ, [did for us].
Car si, par la faute d’un seul, la mort a régné par un seul, beaucoup plutôt ceux qui reçoivent l’abondance de la grâce et du don de la justice, régneront-ils en vie par un seul, Jésus Christ);
18 So, [because one man, Adam], disobeyed [God’s law], that resulted in all people deserving to be punished {that God punish them}. Similarly, because one man, [Jesus], acted righteously [by obeying God when he died], the result was that God is [able to erase the record of] all people’s sins and [enable them to] live eternally.
ainsi donc, comme par une seule faute [les conséquences de cette faute furent] envers tous les hommes en condamnation, ainsi aussi par une seule justice [les conséquences de cette justice furent] envers tous les hommes en justification de vie.
19 It was because one person, [Adam], disobeyed [God] that many/all people became sinners. Similarly, it is because one person, [Jesus], obeyed [God when he died] that the record of many people’s sins will be erased {that [he] will erase the record of many people’s sins}.
Car comme par la désobéissance d’un seul homme plusieurs ont été constitués pécheurs, ainsi aussi par l’obéissance d’un seul, plusieurs seront constitués justes.
20 [God gave] [PRS] his laws [to Moses] [PRS] in order that [people might realize] how greatly they had sinned; but as people sinned more, God continued to act even more kindly toward them, in a way that they did not deserve.
Or [la] loi est intervenue afin que la faute abonde; mais là où le péché abondait, la grâce a surabondé,
21 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 par la mort, ainsi aussi la grâce règne par [la] justice pour [la] vie éternelle par Jésus Christ notre Seigneur. (aiōnios g166)
