Matthew 26
|
Lorsque Jésus eut achevé tous ces discours, il dit à ses disciples: | And when Jesus had come to the end of all these words, he said to his disciples, |
Vous savez que la Pâque a lieu dans deux jours, et que le Fils de l`homme sera livré pour être crucifié. | After two days is the Passover, and the Son of man will be given up to the death of the cross. |
Alors les principaux sacrificateurs et les anciens du peuple se réunirent dans la cour du souverain sacrificateur, appelé Caïphe; | Then the chief priests and the rulers of the people came together in the house of the high priest, who was named Caiaphas. |
et ils délibérèrent sur les moyens d`arrêter Jésus par ruse, et de le faire mourir. | And they made designs together to take Jesus by some trick, and put him to death. |
Mais ils dirent: Que ce ne soit pas pendant la fête, afin qu`il n`y ait pas de tumulte parmi le peuple. | But they said, Not while the feast is going on, for fear of trouble among the people. |
Comme Jésus était à Béthanie, dans la maison de Simon le lépreux, | Now when Jesus was in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, |
une femme s`approcha de lui, tenant un vase d`albâtre, qui renfermait un parfum de grand prix; et, pendant qu`il était à table, elle répandit le parfum sur sa tête. | There came to him a woman having a bottle of perfume of great price, and she put the perfume on his head when he was seated at table. |
Les disciples, voyant cela, s`indignèrent, et dirent: A quoi bon cette perte? | But when the disciples saw it they were angry, saying, To what purpose is this waste? |
On aurait pu vendre ce parfum très cher, et en donner le prix aux pauvres. | For we might have got much money for this and given it to the poor. |
Jésus, s`en étant aperçu, leur dit: Pourquoi faites-vous de la peine à cette femme? Elle a fait une bonne action à mon égard; | But Jesus, seeing it, said to them, Why are you troubling the woman? she has done a kind act to me. |
car vous avez toujours des pauvres avec vous, mais vous ne m`avez pas toujours. | For the poor you have ever with you, but me you have not for ever. |
En répandant ce parfum sur mon corps, elle l`a fait pour ma sépulture. | For in putting this perfume on my body, she did it to make me ready for my last resting-place. |
Je vous le dis en vérité, partout où cette bonne nouvelle sera prêchée, dans le monde entier, on racontera aussi en mémoire de cette femme ce qu`elle a fait. | Truly I say to you, Wherever this good news goes out in all the world, what this woman has done will be talked of in memory of her. |
Alors l`un des douze, appelé Judas Iscariot, alla vers les principaux sacrificateurs, | Then one of the twelve, who was named Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests and said, |
et dit: Que voulez-vous me donner, et je vous le livrerai? Et ils lui payèrent trente pièces d`argent. | What will you give me, if I give him up to you? And the price was fixed at thirty bits of silver. |
Depuis ce moment, il cherchait une occasion favorable pour livrer Jésus. | And from that time he was watching for a chance to give him into their hands. |
Le premier jour des pains sans levain, les disciples s`adressèrent à Jésus, pour lui dire: Où veux-tu que nous te préparions le repas de la Pâque? | Now on the first day of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where are we to make ready for you to take the Passover meal? |
Il répondit: Allez à la ville chez un tel, et vous lui direz: Le maître dit: Mon temps est proche; je ferai chez toi la Pâque avec mes disciples. | And he said to them, Go into the town to such a man, and say to him, The Master says, My time is near: I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples. |
Les disciples firent ce que Jésus leur avait ordonné, et ils préparèrent la Pâque. | And the disciples did as Jesus had said to them; and they made ready the Passover. |
Le soir étant venu, il se mit à table avec les douze. | Now when evening was come, he was seated at table with the twelve disciples; |
Pendant qu`ils mangeaient, il dit: Je vous le dis en vérité, l`un de vous me livrera. | And while they were taking food, he said, Truly I say to you that one of you will be false to me. |
Ils furent profondément attristés, et chacun se mit à lui dire: Est-ce moi, Seigneur? | And they were very said, and said to him, one by one, Is it I, Lord? |
Il répondit: Celui qui a mis avec moi la main dans le plat, c`est celui qui me livrera. | And he made answer and said, He who puts his hand into the plate with me, the same will be false to me. |
Le Fils de l`homme s`en va, selon ce qui est écrit de lui. Mais malheur à l`homme par qui le Fils de l`homme est livré! Mieux vaudrait pour cet homme qu`il ne fût pas né. | The Son of man goes, even as the Writings say of him: but a curse is on that man through whom the Son of man is given up; it would have been well for that man if he had never come into the world. |
Judas, qui le livrait, prit la parole et dit: Est-ce moi, Rabbi? Jésus lui répondit: Tu l`as dit. | And Judas, who was false to him, made answer and said, Is it I, Master? He says to him, Yes. |
Pendant qu`ils mangeaient, Jésus prit du pain; et, après avoir rendu grâces, il le rompit, et le donna aux disciples, en disant: Prenez, mangez, ceci est mon corps. | And when they were taking food, Jesus took bread and, after blessing it, he gave the broken bread to the disciples and said, Take it; this is my body. |
Il prit ensuite une coupe; et, après avoir rendu grâces, il la leur donna, en disant: Buvez-en tous; | And he took a cup and, having given praise, he gave it to them, saying, |
car ceci est mon sang, le sang de l`alliance, qui est répandu pour plusieurs, pour la rémission des péchés. | Take of it, all of you, for this is my blood of the testament, which is given for men for the forgiveness of sins. |
Je vous le dis, je ne boirai plus désormais de ce fruit de la vigne, jusqu`au jour où j`en boirai du nouveau avec vous dans le royaume de mon Père. | But I say to you that from now I will not take of this fruit of the vine, till that day when I take it new with you in my Father's kingdom. |
Après voir chanté les cantiques, ils se rendirent à la montagne des oliviers. | And after a song of praise to God, they went out to the Mountain of Olives. |
Alors Jésus leur dit: Je serai pour vous tous, cette nuit, une occasion de chute; car il est écrit: Je frapperai le berger, et les brebis du troupeau seront dispersées. | Then said Jesus to them, All of you will be turned away from me this night: for it is said in the Writings, I will put to death the keeper of the sheep, and the sheep of the flock will be put to flight. |
Mais, après que je serai ressuscité, je vous précèderai en Galilée. | But after I am come back from the dead, I will go before you into Galilee. |
Pierre, prenant la parole, lui dit: Quand tu serais pour tous une occasion de chute, tu ne le seras jamais pour moi. | But Peter made answer and said to him, Though all may be turned away from you, I will never be turned away. |
Jésus lui dit: Je te le dis en vérité, cette nuit même, avant que le coq chante, tu me renieras trois fois. | Jesus said to him, Truly I say to you that this night, before the hour of the cock's cry, you will say three times that you have no knowledge of me. |
Pierre lui répondit: Quand il me faudrait mourir avec toi, je ne te renierai pas. Et tous les disciples dirent la même chose. | Peter says to him, Even if I am put to death with you, I will not be false to you. So said all the disciples. |
Là-dessus, Jésus alla avec eux dans un lieu appelé Gethsémané, et il dit aux disciples: Asseyez-vous ici, pendant que je m`éloignerai pour prier. | Then comes Jesus with them to a place named Gethsemane, and says to his disciples, Be seated here, while I go over there for prayer. |
Il prit avec lui Pierre et les deux fils de Zébédée, et il commença à éprouver de la tristesse et des angoisses. | And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and became sad and very troubled. |
Il leur dit alors: Mon âme est triste jusqu`à la mort; restez ici, et veillez avec moi. | Then says he to them, My soul is very sad, even to death: keep watch with me here. |
Puis, ayant fait quelques pas en avant, il se jeta sur sa face, et pria ainsi: Mon Père, s`il est possible, que cette coupe s`éloigne de moi! Toutefois, non pas ce que je veux, mais ce que tu veux. | And he went forward a little, and falling down on his face in prayer, he said, O my Father, if it is possible, let this cup go from me; but let not my pleasure, but yours be done. |
Et il vint vers les disciples, qu`il trouva endormis, et il dit à Pierre: Vous n`avez donc pu veiller une heure avec moi! | And he comes to the disciples, and sees that they are sleeping, and says to Peter, What, were you not able to keep watch with me one hour? |
Veillez et priez, afin que vous ne tombiez pas dans la tentation; l`esprit es bien disposé, mais la chair est faible. | Keep watch with prayer, so that you may not be put to the test: the spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is feeble. |
Il s`éloigna une seconde fois, et pria ainsi: Mon Père, s`il n`est pas possible que cette coupe s`éloigne sans que je la boive, que ta volonté soit faite! | Again, a second time he went away, and said in prayer, O my Father, if this may not go from me without my taking it, let your pleasure be done. |
Il revint, et les trouva encore endormis; car leurs yeux étaient appesantis. | And he came again and saw them sleeping, for their eyes were tired. |
Il les quitta, et, s`éloignant, il pria pour la troisième fois, répétant les mêmes paroles. | And he went away from them again, and a third time said the same prayer. |
Puis il alla vers ses disciples, et leur dit: Vous dormez maintenant, et vous vous reposez! Voici, l`heure est proche, et le Fils de l`homme est livré aux mains des pécheurs. | Then he comes to the disciples; and says to them, Go on sleeping now, and take your rest: for the hour is come, and the Son of man is given into the hands of evil men. |
Levez-vous, allons; voici, celui qui me livre s`approche. | Up, let us be going: see, he who gives me up is near. |
Comme il parlait encore, voici, Judas, l`un des douze, arriva, et avec lui une foule nombreuse armée d`épées et de bâtons, envoyée par les principaux sacrificateurs et par les anciens du peuple. | And while he was still talking, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a band armed with swords and sticks, from the chief priests and those in authority over the people. |
Celui qui le livrait leur avait donné ce signe: Celui que je baiserai, c`est lui; saisissez-le. | Now the false one had given them a sign saying, The one to whom I give a kiss, that is he: take him. |
Aussitôt, s`approchant de Jésus, il dit: Salut, Rabbi! Et il le baisa. | And straight away he came to Jesus and said, Master! and gave him a kiss. |
Jésus lui dit: Mon ami, ce que tu es venu faire, fais-le. Alors ces gens s`avancèrent, mirent la main sur Jésus, et le saisirent. | And Jesus said to him, Friend, do that for which you have come. Then they came and put hands on Jesus, and took him. |
Et voici, un de ceux qui étaient avec Jésus étendit la main, et tira son épée; il frappa le serviteur du souverain sacrificateur, et lui emporta l`oreille. | And one of those who were with Jesus put out his hand, and took out his sword and gave the servant of the high priest a blow, cutting off his ear. |
Alors Jésus lui dit: Remets ton épée à sa place; car tous ceux qui prendront l`épée périront par l`épée. | Then says Jesus to him, Put up your sword again into its place: for all those who take the sword will come to death by the sword. |
Penses-tu que je ne puisse pas invoquer mon Père, qui me donnerait à l`instant plus de douze légions d`anges? | Does it not seem possible to you that if I make request to my Father he will even now send me an army of angels? |
Comment donc s`accompliraient les Écritures, d`après lesquelles il doit en être ainsi? | But how then would the Writings come true, which say that so it has to be? |
En ce moment, Jésus dit à la foule: Vous êtes venus, comme après un brigand, avec des épées et des bâtons, pour vous emparer de moi. J`étais tous les jours assis parmi vous, enseignant dans le temple, et vous ne m`avez pas saisi. | In that hour Jesus said to the people, Have you come out as against a thief with swords and sticks to take me? I was teaching every day in the Temple and you took me not. |
Mais tout cela est arrivé afin que les écrits des prophètes fussent accomplis. Alors tous les disciples l`abandonnèrent, et prirent la fuite. | But all this has taken place so that the writings of the prophets might come true. Then all his disciples went from him in flight. |
Ceux qui avaient saisi Jésus l`emmenèrent chez le souverain sacrificateur Caïphe, où les scribes et les anciens étaient assemblés. | And those who had made Jesus prisoner took him away to the house of Caiaphas, the high priest, where the scribes and those in authority over the people had come together. |
Pierre le suivit de loin jusqu`à la cour du souverain sacrificateur, y entra, et s`assit avec les serviteurs, pour voir comment cela finirait. | But Peter went after him at a distance, to the house of the high priest, and went in and took his seat with the servants, to see the end. |
Les principaux sacrificateurs et tout le sanhédrin cherchaient quelque faux témoignage contre Jésus, suffisant pour le faire mourir. | Now the chief priests and all the Sanhedrin were looking for false witness against Jesus, so that they might put him to death; |
Mais ils n`en trouvèrent point, quoique plusieurs faux témoins se fussent présentés. Enfin, il en vint deux, qui dirent: | And they were not able to get it, though a number of false witnesses came. |
Celui-ci a dit: Je puis détruire le temple de Dieu, et le rebâtir en trois jours. | But later there came two who said, This man said, I am able to give the Temple of God to destruction, and to put it up again in three days. |
Le souverain sacrificateur se leva, et lui dit: Ne réponds-tu rien? Qu`est-ce que ces hommes déposent contre toi? | And the high priest got up and said to him, Have you no answer? what is it which these say against you? |
Jésus garda le silence. Et le souverain sacrificateur, prenant la parole, lui dit: Je t`adjure, par le Dieu vivant, de nous dire si tu es le Christ, le Fils de Dieu. | But Jesus said not a word. And the high priest said to him, I put you on oath, by the living God, that you will say to us if you are the Christ, the Son of God. |
Jésus lui répondit: Tu l`as dit. De plus, je vous le déclare, vous verrez désormais le Fils de l`homme assis à la droite de la puissance de Dieu, et venant sur les nuées du ciel. | Jesus says to him, You say so: but I say to you, From now you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of power, and coming on the clouds of heaven. |
Alors le souverain sacrificateur déchira ses vêtements, disant: Il a blasphémé! Qu`avons-nous encore besoin de témoins? Voici, vous venez d`entendre son blasphème. Que vous en semble? | Then the high priest, violently parting his robes, said, He has said evil against God: what more need have we of witnesses? for now his words against God have come to your ears: |
Ils répondirent: Il mérite la mort. | What is your opinion? They made answer and said, It is right for him to be put to death. |
Là-dessus, ils lui crachèrent au visage, et lui donnèrent des coups de poing et des soufflets en disant: | Then they put shame on him, and were cruel to him: and some gave him blows, saying, |
Christ, prophétise; dis-nous qui t`a frappé. | Be a prophet, O Christ, and say who gave you a blow! |
Cependant, Pierre était assis dehors dans la cour. Une servante s`approcha de lui, et dit: Toi aussi, tu étais avec Jésus le Galiléen. | Now Peter was seated in the open square outside the house: and a servant-girl came to him, saying, You were with Jesus the Galilaean. |
Mais il le nia devant tous, disant: Je ne sais ce que tu veux dire. | But he said before them all that it was false, saying, I have no knowledge of what you say. |
Comme il se dirigeait vers la porte, une autre servante le vit, et dit à ceux qui se trouvaient là; Celui-ci était aussi avec Jésus de Nazareth. | And when he had gone out into the doorway, another saw him and says to those who were there, This man was with Jesus the Nazarene. |
Il le nia de nouveau, avec serment: Je ne connais pas cet homme. | And again he said with an oath, I have no knowledge of the man. |
Peu après, ceux qui étaient là, s`étant approchés, dirent à Pierre: Certainement tu es aussi de ces gens-là, car ton langage te fait reconnaître. | And after a little time those who were near came and said to Peter, Truly you are one of them; because your talk is witness against you. |
Alors il se mit à faire des imprécations et à jurer: Je ne connais pas cet homme. Aussitôt le coq chanta. | Then with curses and oaths he said, I have no knowledge of the man. And straight away there came the cry of a cock. |
Et Pierre se souvint de la parole que Jésus avait dite: Avant que le coq chante, tu me renieras trois fois. Et étant sorti, il pleura amèrement. | And the word of Jesus came back to Peter, when he said, Before the hour of the cock's cry, you will say three times that you have no knowledge of me. And he went out, weeping bitterly. |
