Chapter 8

In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them,

En ces jours-là, une foule nombreuse s`étant de nouveau réunie et n`ayant pas de quoi manger, Jésus appela les disciples, et leur dit:

I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat:

Je suis ému de compassion pour cette foule; car voilà trois jours qu`ils sont près de moi, et ils n`ont rien à manger.

And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for divers of them came from far.

Si je les renvoie chez eux à jeun, les forces leur manqueront en chemin; car quelques-uns d`entre eux sont venus de loin.

And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness?

Ses disciples lui répondirent: Comment pourrait-on les rassasier de pains, ici, dans un lieu désert?

And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.

Jésus leur demanda: Combien avez-vous de pains? Sept, répondirent-ils.

And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and brake, and gave to his disciples to set before them; and they did set them before the people.

Alors il fit asseoir la foule par terre, prit les sept pains, et, après avoir rendu grâces, il les rompit, et les donna à ses disciples pour les distribuer; et ils les distribuèrent à la foule.

And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them.

Ils avaient encore quelques petits poissons, et Jésus, ayant rendu grâces, les fit aussi distribuer.

So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets.

Ils mangèrent et furent rassasiés, et l`on emporta sept corbeilles pleines des morceaux qui restaient.

And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.

Ils étaient environ quatre mille. Ensuite Jésus les renvoya.

And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.

Aussitôt il monta dans la barque avec ses disciples, et se rendit dans la contrée de Dalmanutha.

And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.

Les pharisiens survinrent, se mirent à discuter avec Jésus, et, pour l`éprouver, lui demandèrent un signe venant du ciel.

And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation.

Jésus, soupirant profondément en son esprit, dit: Pourquoi cette génération demande-t-elle un signe? Je vous le dis en vérité, il ne sera point donné de signe à cette génération.

And he left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the other side.

Puis il les quitta, et remonta dans la barque, pour passer sur l`autre bord.

Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship with them more than one loaf.

Les disciples avaient oublié de prendre des pains; ils n`en avaient qu`un seul avec eux dans la barque.

And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.

Jésus leur fit cette recommandation: Gardez-vous avec soin du levain des pharisiens et du levain d`Hérode.

And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread.

Les disciples raisonnaient entre eux, et disaient: C`est parce que nous n`avons pas de pains.

And when Jesus knew it, he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet hardened?

Jésus, l`ayant connu, leur dit: Pourquoi raisonnez-vous sur ce que vous n`avez pas de pains? Etes-vous encore sans intelligence, et ne comprenez-vous pas?

Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?

Avez-vous le coeur endurci? Ayant des yeux, ne voyez-vous pas? Ayant des oreilles, n`entendez-vous pas? Et n`avez-vous point de mémoire?

When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.

Quand j`ai rompu les cinq pains pour les cinq mille hommes, combien de paniers pleins de morceaux avez-vous emportés? Douze, lui répondirent-ils.

And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.

Et quand j`ai rompu les sept pains pour les quatre mille hommes, combien de corbeilles pleines de morceaux avez-vous emportées? Sept, répondirent-ils.

And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?

Et il leur dit: Ne comprenez-vous pas encore?

And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him.

Ils se rendirent à Bethsaïda; et on amena vers Jésus un aveugle, qu`on le pria de toucher.

And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought.

Il prit l`aveugle par la main, et le conduisit hors du village; puis il lui mit de la salive sur les yeux, lui imposa les mains, et lui demanda s`il voyait quelque chose.

And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking.

Il regarda, et dit: J`aperçois les hommes, mais j`en vois comme des arbres, et qui marchent.

After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.

Jésus lui mit de nouveau les mains sur les yeux; et, quand l`aveugle regarda fixement, il fut guéri, et vit tout distinctement.

And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town.

Alors Jésus le renvoya dans sa maison, en disant: N`entre pas au village.

And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I am?

Jésus s`en alla, avec ses disciples, dans les villages de Césarée de Philippe, et il leur posa en chemin cette question: Qui dit-on que je suis?

And they answered, John the Baptist: but some say, Elias; and others, One of the prophets.

Ils répondirent: Jean Baptiste; les autres, Élie, les autres, l`un des prophètes.

And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ.

Et vous, leur demanda-t-il, qui dites-vous que je suis? Pierre lui répondit: Tu es le Christ.

And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.

Jésus leur recommanda sévèrement de ne dire cela de lui à personne.

And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

Alors il commença à leur apprendre qu`il fallait que le Fils de l`homme souffrît beaucoup, qu`il fût rejeté par les anciens, par les principaux sacrificateurs et par les scribes, qu`il fût mis à mort, et qu`il ressuscitât trois jours après.

And he spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.

Il leur disait ces choses ouvertement. Et Pierre, l`ayant pris à part, se mit à le reprendre.

But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men.

Mais Jésus, se retournant et regardant ses disciples, réprimanda Pierre, et dit: Arrière de moi, Satan! car tu ne conçois pas les choses de Dieu, tu n`as que des pensées humaines.

And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

Puis, ayant appelé la foule avec ses disciples, il leur dit: Si quelqu`un veut venir après moi, qu`il renonce à lui-même, qu`il se charge de sa croix, et qu`il me suive.

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.

Car celui qui voudra sauver sa vie la perdra, mais celui qui perdra sa vie à cause de moi et de la bonne nouvelle la sauvera.

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

Et que sert-il à un homme de gagner tout le monde, s`il perd son âme?

Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Que donnerait un homme en échange de son âme?

Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

Car quiconque aura honte de moi et de mes paroles au milieu de cette génération adultère et pécheresse, le Fils de l`homme aura aussi honte de lui, quand il viendra dans la gloire de son Père, avec les saints anges.
