Marc 16
1 Et le sabbat étant passé, Marie de Magdala, et Marie, la [mère] de Jacques, et Salomé, achetèrent des aromates pour venir l’embaumer.
[On Saturday evening] when (the Sabbath/the Jewish day of rest) had ended, Mary [from] Magdala, Mary the mother of the [younger] James, and Salome bought fragrant ointment. [The Jews had a custom of] anointing bodies [before they buried them, and the women wanted to follow this custom].
2 Et de fort grand matin, le premier jour de la semaine, elles viennent au sépulcre, comme le soleil se levait.
So very early on Sunday, [just after] the sun rose, they [took the fragrant ointment] and started toward the tomb.
3 Et elles disaient entre elles: Qui nous roulera la pierre de devant la porte du sépulcre?
[While they were going there], they were saying to each other, “Who will roll away for us the stone [that blocks] the entrance of the tomb?”
4 Et ayant regardé, elles voient que la pierre était roulée; car elle était fort grande.
[After they arrived], they looked up and saw that the stone had [already] been rolled away {that someone had [already] rolled away the stone}. [They were surprised because it] would have been difficult to move such a huge stone.
5 Et étant entrées dans le sépulcre, elles virent un jeune homme assis du côté droit, vêtu d’une robe blanche, et elles s’épouvantèrent.
They entered the tomb and saw [an angel who looked like] a young man. He was sitting at the right side [of the cave]. He was wearing a [shining] white robe. As a result, they were astonished.
6 Et lui leur dit: Ne vous épouvantez point; vous cherchez Jésus le Nazarénien, le crucifié: il est ressuscité, il n’est pas ici; voici le lieu où on l’avait mis.
The young man said to them, “Do not be astonished! I [know that] you are looking for Jesus, the man from Nazareth, who was nailed to a cross {whom they nailed to a cross}. But he has become alive again! He is not here! Look! [Here is] the place where they placed his [body].
7 Mais allez, dites à ses disciples et à Pierre: Il s’en va devant vous en Galilée; là vous le verrez, comme il vous l’a dit.
But, instead [of remaining here], go and tell his disciples. Particularly [be sure] that you tell Peter. Tell them, ‘[Jesus] is going ahead of you to Galilee [district], and you will see him there, just like he told you [previously’]!”
8 Et sortant, elles s’enfuirent du sépulcre. Et le tremblement et le trouble les avaient saisies; et elles ne dirent rien à personne, car elles avaient peur.
The women went outside and ran from the tomb. They were trembling [because they were afraid], and they were astonished. But they did not say anything to anyone [about this] while they were going, because they were afraid.
9 (note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) Et étant ressuscité le matin, le premier jour de la semaine, il apparut premièrement à Marie de Magdala, de laquelle il avait chassé sept démons.
(note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) [When Jesus became alive [again] early on Sunday morning, he appeared first to Mary [from] Magdala [town]. She was the woman from whom he had [previously] expelled seven evil spirits.
10 Elle, s’en allant, l’annonça à ceux qui avaient été avec lui, qui étaient dans le deuil et pleuraient.
She went to those who had been with [Jesus], while they were mourning and crying. She told them [what she had seen].
11 Et ceux-ci, apprenant qu’il était vivant et qu’il avait été vu d’elle, ne le crurent point.
But when she told them that Jesus was alive again and that she had seen him, they refused to believe it.
12 Et après ces choses, il apparut sous une autre forme à deux d’entre eux qui étaient en chemin, allant aux champs.
Later [that day], Jesus appeared to two of [his disciples] while they were walking [from Jerusalem to their homes in] the [surrounding] area. [But they did not recognize him quickly because] he looked very different.
13 Et ceux-ci s’en allèrent et l’annoncèrent aux autres; mais ils ne crurent pas ceux-là non plus.
[After they recognized him], those two went back [to Jerusalem. They told his other followers what had happened], but they did not believe it.
14 Plus tard, il apparut aux onze, comme ils étaient à table, et leur reprocha leur incrédulité et leur dureté de cœur, parce qu’ils n’avaient pas cru ceux qui l’avaient vu ressuscité.
Later he appeared to the eleven [apostles] while they were eating. He rebuked them because they had stubbornly refused to believe [the reports of] those who saw him after he had become alive again.
15 Et il leur dit: Allez dans tout le monde, et prêchez l’évangile à toute la création.
[Later] he said to them, “Go into the whole world and preach the good message to everyone!
16 Celui qui aura cru et qui aura été baptisé sera sauvé; et celui qui n’aura pas cru sera condamné.
Everyone who believes [your message] and who is baptized will be saved {[God] will save}. But everyone who does not believe it will be condemned {[God] will condemn}.
17 Et ce sont ici les signes qui accompagneront ceux qui auront cru: en mon nom ils chasseront les démons; ils parleront de nouvelles langues;
Those who believe [my good message] will perform miracles. Specifically, by my power they will expel evil spirits. They will speak in languages that they have not learned.
18 ils prendront des serpents; et quand ils auront bu quelque chose de mortel, cela ne leur nuira point; ils imposeront les mains aux infirmes, et ceux-ci se porteront bien.
If they pick up snakes [accidentally] or if they drink any poisonous [liquid accidentally], they will not be hurt. [Whenever] they put their hands on sick [people in order that God will heal them], those sick people will become well.”
19 Le Seigneur donc, après leur avoir parlé, fut élevé en haut dans le ciel, et s’assit à la droite de Dieu.
After the Lord Jesus had said this to [the disciples, he was taken] {[God] took him} up into heaven. Then he sat down on his throne beside God [to rule with him].
20 – Et eux, étant partis, prêchèrent partout, le Seigneur coopérant avec eux, et confirmant la parole par les signes qui l’accompagnaient.
[As for the disciples], they went out [from Jerusalem, and then they preached everywhere. Wherever they went], the Lord enabled them to perform miracles. [By doing that], he showed people that God’s message is true.
