Marc 5
1 Ils arrivèrent de l'autre côté de la mer, dans le pays des Gadaréniens.
Jesus and his disciples arrived on the [east] side of Lake [Galilee. They landed near] where the Gerasene [people lived].
2 Dès qu'il fut sorti de la barque, un homme possédé d'un esprit impur vint à sa rencontre hors des sépulcres.
There was a man in that region whom evil spirits controlled.
3 Il habitait dans les sépulcres. Personne ne pouvait plus le lier, pas même avec des chaînes,
[Because that man was violent and people were afraid of him], they had tied him up many times. [As he grew more violent], no one was able to tie him up any longer, not even with chains,
4 car il avait été souvent lié avec des fers et des chaînes, et les chaînes avaient été déchirées par lui, et les fers brisés en morceaux. Personne n'avait la force de le dompter.
because the chains would be broken by him {he would break the chains} whenever he was bound {they bound him} with them. The iron shackles would also be smashed by him {He would also smash the iron shackles} whenever they were fastened {they fastened them} [on his feet].
5 Toujours, nuit et jour, dans les tombeaux et dans les montagnes, il poussait des cris et se tailladait avec des pierres.
He lived in one of the caves [where they bury dead people]. During both night and day he would scream among the caves and in the hills. He would also cut himself with [sharp] stones. [That day] he came out of the caves.
6 Voyant Jésus de loin, il courut se prosterner devant lui,
As Jesus [and his disciples got] out of the boat, that man saw Jesus from a distance. He immediately ran to Jesus, and then he knelt before him.
7 et s'écria d'une voix forte: « Qu'ai-je à faire avec toi, Jésus, Fils du Dieu très haut? Je t'en conjure par Dieu, ne me tourmente pas. »
Jesus said to the evil spirit, “You evil spirit, come out of this man!” [But the demon did not leave quickly]. It shouted very loudly, “Jesus, I [know that you are the] (Son of/man who is also) God, so (we have nothing in common./what do we have in common?) [IDM, RHQ] [So leave me alone] I ask you to promise, knowing God is listening, that you will not torture me [now]!”
8 Car il lui dit: « Sors de cet homme, esprit impur! »
9 Il lui demanda: « Quel est ton nom? » Il lui dit: « Je m'appelle Légion, car nous sommes nombreux. »
[So, in order to expel the demon more easily], Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He replied, “My name is Crowd/Mob because there are many of us [evil spirits in this man].”
10 Il le supplia beaucoup de ne pas les renvoyer hors du pays.
Then the evil spirits fervently kept begging Jesus that he not send them out of the region.
11 Or, sur le flanc de la montagne, il y avait un grand troupeau de porcs qui paissait.
[At the same time], a large herd of pigs was (grazing/rooting for food) nearby on the hillside.
12 Tous les démons le supplièrent, disant: « Envoie-nous vers les porcs, afin que nous entrions en eux. »
So the evil spirits pleaded with Jesus, “Allow us to go to the pigs in order that we might enter them!”
13 Aussitôt, Jésus leur donna la permission. Les esprits impurs sortirent et entrèrent dans les porcs. Le troupeau d'environ deux mille personnes se précipita du haut de la rive escarpée dans la mer, et ils furent noyés dans la mer.
He permitted them [to do that]. So the evil spirits left the man and entered the pigs. The herd, [which numbered] about 2,000, rushed down the cliff into the lake, and drowned in the lake.
14 Ceux qui avaient nourri les porcs s'enfuirent et le racontèrent à la ville et à la campagne. Les gens vinrent pour voir ce qui s'était passé.
The men who had been tending the pigs ran and reported in the town and the countryside [what had happened. Many people] went to see what had happened.
15 Ils s'approchèrent de Jésus, et virent le démoniaque assis, vêtu et sain d'esprit, même celui qui avait la légion; et ils eurent peur.
They came to [the place where] Jesus [was]. Then they saw the man whom evil spirits had [previously] controlled. He was sitting there with clothes on and mentally sound. [As a result], they became afraid [because they thought that Jesus might destroy more of their property]. (OR, [they realized that Jesus must be very powerful].)
16 Ceux qui l'avaient vu leur racontèrent ce qui était arrivé à celui qui était possédé de démons, et ce qui concernait les porcs.
The people who had seen what had happened described what had happened to the man whom the evil spirits [previously] controlled. They also described [what had happened to] the pigs.
17 Ils se mirent à le supplier de s'éloigner de leur région.
Then the people pleaded with Jesus to leave their region.
18 Comme il entrait dans la barque, celui qui avait été possédé par des démons le supplia de pouvoir être avec lui.
As Jesus got in the boat [in order to leave], the man whom the evil spirits [previously] controlled begged Jesus, “[Please let me] go with you!”
19 Il ne le lui permit pas, mais lui dit: « Va dans ta maison, chez tes amis, et raconte-leur les grandes choses que le Seigneur a faites pour toi et comment il a eu pitié de toi. »
But Jesus did not let him [go with him]. On the contrary, he said to him, “Go home to your family and tell them how much the Lord [God] has done for you, and tell them how [God] was kind to you.”
20 Il s'en alla, et se mit à proclamer dans la Décapole comment Jésus avait fait de grandes choses pour lui, et tout le monde s'en étonnait.
So the man left [and traveled around] the Ten Towns [district]. He told people how much Jesus had done for him. All the people [who heard what the man said] were amazed.
21 Lorsque Jésus eut retraversé la barque pour passer de l'autre côté, une grande foule s'assembla auprès de lui, et il était au bord de la mer.
Jesus [and his disciples] went in a boat back around Lake [Galilee] to where they were before. When they arrived at the shore of the lake, a large crowd gathered around Jesus.
22 Et voici qu'arrive un des chefs de la synagogue, nommé Jaïrus. Le voyant, il se jeta à ses pieds
One of the men who presided over a (synagogue/Jewish meeting place), whose name was Jairus, came there. When he saw Jesus, he prostrated himself at his feet.
23 et le supplia beaucoup, en disant: « Ma petite fille est à l'article de la mort. Viens, je te prie, imposer tes mains sur elle, afin qu'elle soit guérie et qu'elle vive. »
Then he pleaded with Jesus earnestly, “My twelve-year old daughter is [sick and] nearly dead! [Please] come [to my house] and place your hands on her in order that she will be healed {to heal her}, so that she will not die!”
24 Il partit avec lui. Une grande foule le suivait, et se pressait de tous côtés contre lui.
So Jesus [and the disciples] went with him. A large crowd followed [Jesus] and [many] pushed close to him.
25 Une femme qui avait des pertes de sang depuis douze ans,
There was a woman [in the crowd] who had vaginal bleeding [EUP] [every day] for twelve years.
26 qui avait beaucoup souffert de la part de beaucoup de médecins, qui avait dépensé tout ce qu'elle possédait, et qui n'était pas guérie, mais qui allait plutôt en empirant,
She had suffered much while many doctors [treated her]. But although she had spent all [her money] to pay the doctors, she had not been helped {they had not helped her}. Instead, she had become worse [EUP].
27 ayant entendu parler de Jésus, vint derrière lui dans la foule et toucha ses vêtements.
After she heard that Jesus [healed people], she came [to where he was and pushed] in the crowd [close] behind Jesus.
28 Car elle disait: « Si je touche seulement ses vêtements, je serai guérie. »
She did that because she was thinking, “If I [touch him or] even if I touch his clothes, I will be healed {his power will heal me}.” So she touched Jesus’ clothes.
29 Aussitôt, l'écoulement de son sang se tarit, et elle sentit dans son corps qu'elle était guérie de son malheur.
At once her bleeding stopped. At the same time, she sensed that she had been cured of {that [he] had cured} her illness.
30 Aussitôt, Jésus, percevant en lui-même que la puissance était sortie de lui, se retourna dans la foule et demanda: « Qui a touché mes vêtements? »
Jesus [also] immediately sensed that his power had healed someone. So he turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”
31 Ses disciples lui dirent: « Tu vois la foule qui se presse contre toi, et tu dis: « Qui m'a touché? »".
[One of] his disciples replied, “You can see that many people are crowding close to you! [Probably many people touched you]! So (why do you ask ‘Who touched me?’[/We are surprised] that you ask ‘Who touched me?’ [RHQ])”
32 Il regarda autour de lui pour voir celle qui avait fait cela.
But Jesus kept looking around in order to see the one who had done it.
33 Mais la femme, effrayée et tremblante, sachant ce qu'on lui avait fait, vint se jeter à terre devant lui, et lui dit toute la vérité.
The woman was very afraid and trembling. [She thought that Jesus might be angry because she had violated the law that women who had such a] sickness [should not touch other people. But] she knew [that Jesus had healed her]. So she prostrated herself before him. Then she told him truthfully [about what she had done].
34 Il lui dit: « Ma fille, ta foi t'a guérie. Va en paix, et sois guérie de ta maladie. »
He said to her, “(Ma’am/Young lady), because you have believed [that I could heal you], I have healed you. You may go home with peace [in your heart/inner being], [because I promise that] you will not be sick [this way any more].”
35 Comme il parlait encore, des gens vinrent de la maison du chef de la synagogue, disant: « Ta fille est morte. Pourquoi déranger encore le maître? »
While Jesus was still speaking [to that woman], some people arrived who had come from Jairus’ house. They said [to Jairus], “Your daughter has [now] died. So (it is useless that you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]!/why do you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]?) [RHQ]”
36 Mais Jésus, ayant entendu le message prononcé, dit aussitôt au chef de la synagogue: « N'aie pas peur, crois seulement. »
But when Jesus heard what these men said, he said to Jairus, “Do not think that the situation is hopeless! Just keep believing [that she will live]!”
37 Il ne permit à personne de le suivre, si ce n'est à Pierre, à Jacques et à Jean, frère de Jacques.
Then he allowed only [his three closest disciples], Peter, James, and John, to go with him [to Jairus’ house]. He did not allow any other people to go with him. After they arrived near the house, Jesus saw that the people there were in turmoil. They were weeping and wailing [DOU] loudly.
38 Il arriva à la maison du chef de la synagogue, et il vit un tumulte, des pleurs et de grandes lamentations.
39 Étant entré, il leur dit: « Pourquoi faites-vous du bruit et pleurez-vous? L'enfant n'est pas mort, mais il dort. »
He entered the house and then he said to them, knowing that [he was going to cause her to live again], “(Do not make such a disturbance!/Why are you making such a disturbance?) [RHQ] Stop crying, for the child is not dead! On the contrary, she is [only] sleeping [HYP, EUP]!”
40 Ils se moquaient de lui. Mais lui, les ayant tous mis dehors, prit le père de l'enfant, sa mère, et ceux qui étaient avec lui, et il entra là où l'enfant était couchée.
The people laughed at him, [because they knew that she was dead]. But he sent all the other people outside the house. Then he took the child’s father and mother and the [three disciples] who were with him. He went into [the room] where the child was [lying].
41 Prenant l'enfant par la main, il lui dit: « Talitha cumi! », ce qui signifie, selon l'interprétation, « Fillette, je te le dis, lève-toi! »
He took hold of the child’s hand and said to her [in her own language], “Talitha, Koum!” That means, “Little girl, get up!”
42 Aussitôt, la jeune fille se leva et marcha, car elle avait douze ans. Ils furent saisis d'un grand étonnement.
At once the girl got up and walked around. ([It was not surprising that she could walk], because she was twelve years old.) [When this happened, all who were present] were very astonished.
43 Il leur ordonna strictement que personne ne le sache, et ordonna qu'on lui donne quelque chose à manger.
Jesus ordered them strictly, “Do not tell anyone about [what I have done]!” Afterwards he told them that something to eat should be brought to the girl {that they should bring the girl something to eat}.
