Luc 4
1 Jésus, rempli de l'Esprit saint, revint des bords du Jourdain; l'Esprit le poussait au désert.
As Jesus left the Jordan [River valley], the Holy Spirit was completely controlling him.
2 Il y passa quarante jours; il était tenté par le diable. Durant ces quarante jours, il ne mangea rien, et quand ils furent achevés, il eut faim.
For 40 days the Spirit led him around in the desolate area. During that time Jesus was being tempted by the devil {the devil was tempting him}, and Jesus did not eat anything. When that time ended, he was [very] hungry.
3 Le diable lui dit: «Si tu es Fils de Dieu, dis à cette pierre de se changer en pain»;
Then the devil said to Jesus, “Because you [claim that you] ([have a relationship with] God as a son [has with his father] [MET]/are the man who is both God and man), [prove it by] telling these stones to become bread [so that you can eat them]!”
4 et, Jésus lui répondit: «Il est écrit: «Ce n'est pas de pain seulement que vivra l'homme.»
Jesus replied, “[No, I will not change stones into bread, because it is written] {[Moses] wrote} [in the Scriptures] that [eating] food sustains people physically, but it does not [sustain them spiritually. They also need food for their spirits].”
5 Puis le diable l'emmena, et lui montrant en un instant tous les royaumes de la terre:
Then the devil took him on top of [a high mountain] and showed him in an instant all the nations in the world.
6 «Je te donnerai, lui dit-il, toute cette puissance et la gloire de ces royaumes, car elfe m'a été livrée, et je la donne à qui je veux.
Then he said to [Jesus], “I will give you the authority [to rule] all these areas and will make you famous. [I can do this] because [God] has permitted me [to control these areas], and I can allow anyone I desire to rule them!
7 Donc, prosterne-toi en adoration devant moi et tout cela est à toi.»
So if you worship me, I will [let] you [rule] them all!”
8 Et Jésus lui fit cette réponse: «Il est écrit: «Tu adoreras le Seigneur ton Dieu et c'est à lui seul que tu rendras un culte.»
But Jesus replied, “[No, I] will not [worship you, because] it is written {[the Psalmist] wrote} [in the Scriptures], ‘It is the Lord, your God, whom you must worship, and you must serve only him!’”
9 Le menant à Jérusalem, le diable le plaça sur le faîte du Temple et lui dit: «Si tu es Fils de Dieu, jette-toi d'ici en bas,
Then the devil took [Jesus] to Jerusalem. He set him on the highest part of the Temple and said to him, “Because you [claim that you] ([have a relationship with God as a son has with his father] [MET]/are the man who is both God and man), [prove it by] jumping down from here.
10 car il est écrit: «A ses anges il donnera l'ordre de te garder
[You will not be hurt], because it is written {the [Psalmist] wrote} [in the Scriptures], ‘God will command his angels to protect you [(sg)].
11 Et de te soutenir de leurs mains, De peur que ton pied ne se heurte contre une pierre.»
They will lift you up with their hands [when you are falling], so that [you will not get hurt]. You will not [even] strike your foot on a stone.’”
12 Jésus lui répondit par ces mots: «Il est dit: «Tu ne tenteras point le Seigneur ton Dieu.»
But Jesus replied, “[No, I] will not [do that, because] it is written {[Moses] wrote} [in the Scriptures]: ‘Do not try to test the Lord your God [to see if he will prevent something bad from happening to you when you do something foolish]’.”
13 Toute espèce de tentation étant achevée, te diable s'éloigna de lai, jusqu'à une autre occasion.
Then, after the devil had finished trying to tempt [Jesus] in many ways, he left him. He wanted to try to tempt him later at an appropriate time.
14 Puissant par l'Esprit, Jésus retourna en Galilée; sa renommée se répandit dans toute la contrée;
As the Spirit empowered him, Jesus returned to Galilee [district. People] throughout all that region heard about what he [was doing].
15 il enseignait dans les synagogues du pays et tous célébraient ses louanges.
He taught [people] in their (synagogues/meeting places). [As a result], he was praised by everyone {everyone praised him}.
16 Étant allé à Nazareth, où il avait été élevé, il entra dans la synagogue le jour du sabbat, selon sa coutume, et il se leva pour faire la lecture.
Then [Jesus] went to Nazareth, [the town] where he grew up. (On the Sabbath/On the Jewish rest day) he went (to the synagogue/to the Jewish meeting place), as he usually did. He stood up [to indicate that he wanted] to read [Scriptures] to them.
17 On lui présenta le livre du prophète Ésaïe. Il l'ouvrit et trouva un passage où il était écrit:
A scroll containing [the words] that the prophet Isaiah [had written] was given to him {[Someone] gave to him a scroll containing [the words] that the prophet Isaiah [had written]}. He opened the scroll and found the place from which he [wanted to] read. [He read these words]:
18 «L'Esprit du Seigneur est sur moi; m'a consacré par son onction pour annoncer l'Évangile aux pauvres, Il m'a envoyé pour annoncer aux captifs leur délivrance, Aux aveugles qu'ils vont recevoir la vue, Pour renvoyer les opprimés affranchis,
The Spirit (of the Lord/of God) is upon me. He has appointed [MTY] me to declare God’s good news to the poor. He has sent me [here] to proclaim that God will deliver those whom [Satan] has captured, and he will [enable me to] enable those who are blind to see. He will enable me to free people who have been oppressed {whom [others] have oppressed}.
19 Pour annoncer une année de faveur de la part du Seigneur.
And he sent me to declare that now is the time when (the Lord/God) will [act] favorably [toward people].
20 Il ferma le livre, le rendit au servant et s'assit. Tout le monde, dans la synagogue, avait les yeux fixés sur lui.
Then he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant, and sat down [to teach the people]. Everyone in the synagogue was looking intently [MTY] at him.
21 Il commença ainsi: «Aujourd'hui s'accomplit ce passage de l'Écriture que vous venez d'entendre...»
He said to them, “Today as you have been hearing [MTY] [me speak], [I am beginning] to fulfill this Scripture passage.”
22 Tous lui rendaient témoignage et étaient ravis des paroles de grâce qui sortaient de sa bouche. «N'est-ce pas là, disait-on, le fils de Joseph?» —
[At first] everyone there spoke well about him, and they were amazed at the charming words that he spoke. [But then some of] them said, “(He is [only] Joseph’s son!/Isn’t he [only] Joseph’s son?) [RHQ] [So] ([it is useless for us(exc) to listen to what he says!/why should we(exc) listen to what he says]?) [RHQ]”
23 «Vous irez jusqu'à m'appliquer ce proverbe, reprit-il: Médecin, guéris-toi toi-même. Tout ce que tu as fait à Capharnaüm et dont nous avons entendu parler, fais-le donc également ici même dans ta patrie.»
He said to them, “Surely [some of] you will quote to me the proverb that says, ‘Doctor, heal yourself!’ [What you will mean is], ‘People told us that you did miracles in Capernaum [town, but we(exc) do not know if those reports are true. So] do miracles here in your own hometown, too!’”
24 Puis il ajouta: «Je vous le dis en vérité, nul prophète n'est accepté dans sa patrie.
Then he said, “It is certainly true that [people] do not accept [the message of] a prophet when he speaks in his hometown, [just like you(pl) are not accepting my message now].
25 Il y avait, aux jours d'Élie, ce que je vous dis là est la vérité, beaucoup de veuves en Israël, lorsque le ciel fut fermé pendant trois ans et demi, et qu'il y eut une grande famine sur toute la terre;
But think about this: There were many widows in Israel during the time when [the prophet] Elijah [lived. During that time], because of there being no rain [MTY] for three years and six months, there was a great famine throughout the country.
26 et cependant Élie ne fut envoyé à aucune d'elles, mais bien à une veuve de Sarepta, dans le pays de Sidon.
But [God] did not send Elijah to [help] any of those [Jewish] widows. [God sent him] to Zarepath [town] near Sidon [city], to [help] a [non-Jewish] widow.
27 Il y avait aussi, en Israël, beaucoup de lépreux au temps du prophète Élisée, et cependant aucun d'eux ne fut guéri. Celui qui fut guéri ce fut un Syrien: Naaman.»
There were also many [Jewish] lepers in Israel during the time when the prophet Elisha [lived]. But [Elisha] did not heal any of them. He healed only Naaman, a [non-Jewish] man from Syria.”
28 Ces paroles remplirent de colère tous ceux qui étaient dans la synagogue.
When all the people in the synagogue heard him say that, they were very angry, [because they realized that he was inferring that he similarly would help non-Jewish people instead of helping Jews] (OR, [that they also were not worthy of receiving God’s help]).
29 Ils se levèrent et ils le chassèrent hors de la cité; puis ils le menèrent jusqu'au sommet de la montagne sur laquelle leur ville avait été bâtie, pour le jeter en bas.
So they all got up and shoved him out of the town. They took him to the top of the hill outside their town in order to throw him off the cliff [and kill him].
30 Mais lui, passant au, milieu d'eux, s'en alla
But he [simply] walked through their midst and went away.
31 et descendit à Capharnaüm, ville de Galilée. Il y enseignait aux jours de sabbat.
[One day] Jesus went [with his disciples] down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee [district]. On the next (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest) (OR, Each (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest)), he taught the people ([in the synagogue/in the Jewish meeting place]).
32 Et ils étaient extrêmement frappés de son enseignement, car sa parole était pleine d'autorité
They were continually amazed at what he was teaching, because [he spoke] ([with authority/as people speak who have] the right to command others what to do).
33 Dans la synagogue il y avait un homme possédé de l'Esprit d'un démon impur. Il se mit à jeter de grands cris:
[That day], (OR, On one of those Jewish days of rest, ) there was a man in the synagogue who was controlled by an evil spirit. That man shouted very loudly,
34 «Ah! qu'y a-t-il entre nous et toi, Jésus de Nazareth? Tu es venu pour nous perdre; je sais qui tu es: le Saint de Dieu!»
“Hey! Jesus, from Nazareth! [We(exc) evil spirits] have nothing in common with you, so ([do not interfere with us now!/why should you interfere with us now]?) [RHQ] (Do not destroy us [now!]/Have you come to destroy us [now]?) [RHQ] I know who you are. You are the Holy One [who has come] from God!”
35 Jésus alors le menaça: «Tais-toi, dit-il, sors de cet homme!» Le renversant par terre au milieu de l'assemblée, le démon sortit de lui sans lui faire aucun mal.
Jesus rebuked [the evil spirit], saying, “Be quiet! And come out [of the man]!” The demon threw the man down on the ground in the midst of the people. But without harming the man, the demon left him.
36 Tous furent terrifiés, et ils se parlaient les uns aux autres: «Qu'est-ce donc, disaient-ils, que cette parole? Il commande avec autorité et puissance aux Esprits impurs, et ils sortent!»
The people were all amazed. They said to each other, “(What he says to the demons [has great power!/] [kind of] teaching is this?) [RHQ] He speaks to them like he knows that they must obey him, and as a result they leave people!”
37 Dans tout le pays environnant il n'était bruit que de lui.
The people were telling everyone in [every village] in the surrounding region what Jesus [had done].
38 En sortant de la synagogue, il entra dans la maison de Simon. Or, la belle-mère de Simon était malade d'une forte fièvre. On implora Jésus en sa faveur.
Jesus [and his disciples] left (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place) and entered Simon’s house. Simon’s mother-in-law was sick and had a high fever. So [others in Simon’s family] (OR, [the disciples]) asked Jesus to [heal] her.
39 Il se pencha vers elle, commanda à la fièvre, et la fièvre disparut. Immédiatement cette femme se leva et se mit à les servir.
So he bent over her and commanded the fever to leave her. At once she became well! She got up and served them [some food].
40 Après le coucher du soleil, tous ceux qui avaient des malades, quels que fussent leurs maux, les lui amenèrent. Imposant les mains à chacun d'eux, Jésus les guérit.
When the sun was setting [that day, and the restriction about not traveling] (on [the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]) [was ended], many people [HYP] whose [friends or relatives] were sick or who had various diseases brought them to Jesus. He put his hands on them and healed [all of] them.
41 Des démons sortaient aussi d'un grand nombre, en s'écriant: «Tu es le Fils de Dieu!» Mais il les menaçait et leur défendait de parler ainsi; car ils savaient qu'il était le Christ.
He also was [expelling demons] from many people. As the demons left those people, they shouted to Jesus, “You are (the Son of God/the one who is God and man)!” But he rebuked those demons and would not allow them to tell [people about him], because they knew that he was the Messiah, and [for various reasons he did not want everyone to know that yet].
42 Lorsqu'il fit jour, il sortit et s'en alla dans un lieu solitaire. Les multitudes se mirent à sa recherche; elles arrivèrent jusqu'à, lui et elles le retenaient, ne voulant point qu'il les quittât.
[Early] the next morning [Jesus] left that house and went to an uninhabited place [to pray]. Many people searched for him, and when they found him they kept urging him not to leave them.
43 Mais il leur dit: «Il me faut annoncer dans d'autres villes aussi l'Évangile du Royaume de Dieu, car c'est pour cela que j'ai été envoyé.»
But he said to them, “I must tell [people] in other towns also the good message about how God wants to rule [MET] their lives, because that is what I was sent {[God] sent me} to do.”
44 Et il prêchait dans les synagogues de la Galilée.
So he kept preaching in (the synagogues/Jewish worship places) [in various towns] in Judea [province].
