John 21
1 After that, Jesus showed himself to [us] disciples when we were at Tiberias Lake, [which is another name for Galilee Lake]. This is what happened:
Après cela Jésus se fit voir encore à ses Disciples, près de la mer de Tibériade, et il s'y fit voir en cette manière.
2 Simon Peter, Thomas who was called {whom [we] called} The Twin, Nathaniel from Cana [town] in Galilee, my older brother and I, and two other disciples were together.
Simon Pierre et Thomas, appelé Didyme, et Nathanaël, qui était de Cana de Galilée, et les [fils] de Zébédée, et deux autres de ses Disciples étaient ensemble.
3 Simon Peter said to us, “[I] am going to [try to] catch some fish.” We said, “We will go with you.” So we went down [to the lake] and got into the boat. But that night we caught nothing.
Simon Pierre leur dit: je m'en vais pêcher. Ils lui dirent: nous y allons avec toi. Ils partirent [donc], et ils montèrent d'abord dans la nacelle; mais ils ne prirent rien cette nuit-là.
4 Early the next morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but we did not know that it was Jesus.
Et le matin étant venu, Jésus se trouva sur le rivage; mais les Disciples ne connurent point que ce fût Jésus.
5 He called out to us, “My friends, you have not [caught] any fish, have you?” We answered, “You are correct, [we have not caught any].”
Et Jésus leur dit: mes enfants, avez-vous quelque petit poisson à manger? ils lui répondirent: Non.
6 He said to us, “Throw your net out from the right-hand side of the boat! Then you will find some!” We did that, and we caught so many fish [in the net] that we were unable to pull the net into [the boat]!
Et il leur dit: jetez le filet au côté droit de la nacelle, et vous en trouverez. Ils le jetèrent donc, et ils ne le pouvaient tirer à cause de la multitude des poissons.
7 [But I knew that it was Jesus], [so] I said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” Peter had taken off his cloak [while he was working], but as soon as he heard [me say] “It is the Lord!” he wrapped his cloak around himself and jumped into the water [and swam to shore].
C'est pourquoi le Disciple que Jésus aimait, dit à Pierre: c'est le Seigneur. Et quand Simon Pierre eut entendu que c'était le Seigneur, il ceignit sa tunique, parce qu'il était nu, et se jeta dans la mer.
8 The rest of us came [to the shore] in the boat, pulling the net full of fish. We were not far from shore, only about 100 yards/meters.
Et les autres Disciples vinrent dans la nacelle, car ils n'étaient pas loin de terre, mais seulement environ deux cents coudées, traînant le filet de poissons.
9 When [we] got to the shore, we saw that there was a fire of burning coals there, with a [large] fish on the fire, and [some] buns.
Et quand ils furent descendus à terre, ils virent de la braise, et du poisson mis dessus, et du pain.
10 Jesus said to us, “Bring some of the fish that you have just caught!”
Jésus leur dit: apportez des poissons que vous venez maintenant de prendre.
11 Simon Peter got in [the boat] and dragged the net to the shore. It was full of large fish. There were 153 of them! But in spite of there being so many fish, the net was not torn.
Simon Pierre monta, et tira le filet à terre, plein de cent cinquante-trois grands poissons; et quoiqu'il y en eût tant, le filet ne fut point rompu.
12 Jesus said to us, “Come and eat some breakfast!” None of us dared to ask him, “Who are you?” because we knew that it was the Lord.
Jésus leur dit: venez, et dînez. Et aucun de ses Disciples n'osait lui demander: qui es-tu? voyant bien que c'était le Seigneur.
13 Jesus took the buns and gave them to us. He did the same with the fish.
Jésus donc vint, et prit du pain, et leur en donna, et du poisson aussi.
14 That was the third time that Jesus appeared to [us] disciples after [God] caused him to become alive again after he died.
Ce fut déjà la troisième fois que Jésus se fit voir à ses Disciples, après être ressuscité des morts.
15 When we had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “John’s [son] Simon, do you love me more than these [other disciples do]?” Peter said to him, “Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me (OR, that I love you).” Jesus said, “Give to [those who belong to] me [what they need spiritually, like] [MET] [a shepherd provides] food for his lambs.”
Et après qu'ils eurent dîné, Jésus dit à Simon Pierre: Simon [fils] de Jonas, m'aimes-tu plus que ne font ceux-ci? Il lui répondit: oui, Seigneur! tu sais que je t'aime. Il lui dit: pais mes agneaux.
16 Jesus said to him again, “John’s [son] Simon, do you love me?” He replied, “Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me (OR, that I love you).” Jesus said to him, “Take care of [those who belong to] me, [like] [MET] a [shepherd takes care of his] sheep.”
Il lui dit encore: Simon [fils] de Jonas, m'aimes-tu? Il lui répondit: oui, Seigneur! tu sais que je t'aime. Il lui dit: pais mes brebis.
17 Jesus said to him a third time, “John’s son Simon, am I really dear to you (OR, do you really love me)?” Peter was grieved because Jesus asked him this three times, [and because the third time he changed the question]. He said, “Lord, you know everything. You know that you are dear to me (OR, that I love you).” Jesus said, “Give to [those who belong to] me [what they need spiritually, as] [MET] [a shepherd provides] food for [his] sheep.
Il lui dit pour la troisième fois: Simon [fils] de Jonas, m'aimes-tu? Pierre fut attristé de ce qu'il lui avait dit pour la troisième fois: m'aimes-tu? Et il lui répondit: Seigneur, tu sais toutes choses, tu sais que je t'aime. Jésus lui dit: pais mes brebis.
18 Now listen to this carefully: When you were young, you put your clothes on by yourself, and you went wherever you wanted to go. But when you are old, you will stretch out your arms, and someone will fasten them [with a rope] and will lead you to a place where you do not want to [go].”
En vérité, en vérité je te dis, quand tu étais plus jeune tu te ceignais, et tu allais où tu voulais; mais quand tu seras vieux, tu étendras tes mains, et un autre te ceindra, et te mènera où tu ne voudras pas.
19 Jesus said this to indicate how Peter would die ([violently/on a cross]) in order to honor God. Then Jesus said to him, “Keep being my faithful disciple [until you die].”
Or il dit cela pour marquer de quelle mort il devait glorifier Dieu; et quand il eut dit ces choses, il lui dit: suis-moi.
20 Peter turned around and saw that I was following them. I was the one who leaned close to Jesus during the [Passover] meal and said, “Lord, who is going to enable your enemies to seize you?”
Et Pierre se retournant vit venir après eux le Disciple que Jésus aimait, et qui durant le souper s'était penché sur le sein de Jésus, et avait dit: Seigneur, qui est celui à qui il arrivera de te trahir?
21 When Peter saw me, he asked, “Lord, what [is going to happen] to him?”
Quand donc Pierre le vit, il dit à Jésus: Seigneur, et celui-ci, que [lui arrivera-t-il?]
22 Jesus said to him, “If I want him to remain [alive] until I return, (that is not your concern!/what is that to you?) [RHQ] You be my [faithful] disciple!”
Jésus lui dit: si je veux qu'il demeure jusqu'à ce que je vienne que t'importe? toi, suis-moi.
23 Some of the other believers heard [a report of] what Jesus had said about me, and [they thought that Jesus meant] that I would not die. But Jesus did not say that I would not die. He said only, “If I want him to remain [alive] until I return, (that is not your concern!/what is that to you?) [RHQ]”
Or cette parole courut entre les Frères, que ce Disciple-là ne mourrait point. Cependant Jésus ne lui avait pas dit: il ne mourra point; mais, si je veux qu'il demeure jusqu'à ce que je vienne; que t'importe?
24 [I, John], am the disciple who has seen all these things and I have written them down. My [fellow apostles] and I know that what [I have written] is true.
C'est ce Disciple-là qui rend témoignage de ces choses, et qui a écrit ces choses, et nous savons que son témoignage est digne de foi.
25 Jesus did many other things. If they would [all] be written {If people would write them [all]} down [in detail], I suppose that the whole world would not have enough space [HYP] to contain the books that would be written {that they would write} [about what he did].
Il y a aussi plusieurs autres choses que Jésus a faites, lesquelles étant écrites en détail je ne pense pas que le monde entier pût contenir les livres qu'on en écrirait. AMEN!
