Luc 4
1 Or Jésus, plein de l’Esprit Saint, s’en retourna du Jourdain et fut mené par l’Esprit dans le désert,
As Jesus left the Jordan [River valley], the Holy Spirit was completely controlling him.
2 étant tenté par le diable 40 jours. Et il ne mangea rien pendant ces jours-là; et lorsqu’ils furent accomplis, 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 Et le diable lui dit: Si tu es Fils de Dieu, dis à cette pierre qu’elle devienne du 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, disant: Il est écrit que « l’homme ne vivra pas de pain seulement, mais de toute parole de Dieu ».
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 Et le diable, le menant sur une haute montagne, lui montra, en un instant, tous les royaumes de la terre habitée.
Then the devil took him on top of [a high mountain] and showed him in an instant all the nations in the world.
6 Et le diable lui dit: Je te donnerai toute cette autorité et la gloire de ces royaumes; car elle m’a été donnée, 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 Si donc tu te prosternes devant moi, elle sera toute à toi.
So if you worship me, I will [let] you [rule] them all!”
8 Et Jésus, lui répondant, dit: Il est écrit: « Tu rendras hommage au Seigneur ton Dieu, et tu le serviras lui seul ».
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 Et il l’amena à Jérusalem, et 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: « Il donnera des ordres à ses anges à ton sujet, pour 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 ils te porteront sur leurs mains, de peur que tu ne heurtes ton pied 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 Et Jésus, répondant, lui dit: Il est dit: « Tu ne tenteras pas 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 Et ayant accompli toute tentation, le diable se retira d’avec lui pour un temps.
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 Et Jésus s’en retourna en Galilée, dans la puissance de l’Esprit; et sa renommée se répandit par tout le pays d’alentour.
As the Spirit empowered him, Jesus returned to Galilee [district. People] throughout all that region heard about what he [was doing].
15 Et lui-même enseignait dans leurs synagogues, étant glorifié par tous.
He taught [people] in their (synagogues/meeting places). [As a result], he was praised by everyone {everyone praised him}.
16 Et il vint à Nazareth où il avait été élevé; et il entra dans la synagogue au jour du sabbat, selon sa coutume, et se leva pour lire.
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 Et on lui donna le livre du prophète Ésaïe; et ayant déployé le livre, il trouva le 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, parce qu’il m’a oint pour annoncer de bonnes nouvelles aux pauvres; il m’a envoyé pour publier aux captifs la délivrance, et aux aveugles le recouvrement de la vue; pour renvoyer libres ceux qui sont foulés,
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 et pour publier l’an agréable du Seigneur ».
And he sent me to declare that now is the time when (the Lord/God) will [act] favorably [toward people].
20 Et ayant ployé le livre, et l’ayant rendu à celui qui était de service, il s’assit; et les yeux de tous ceux qui étaient dans la synagogue étaient arrêtés 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 Et il se mit à leur dire: Aujourd’hui cette écriture est accomplie, vous l’entendant.
He said to them, “Today as you have been hearing [MTY] [me speak], [I am beginning] to fulfill this Scripture passage.”
22 Et tous lui rendaient témoignage, et s’étonnaient des paroles de grâce qui sortaient de sa bouche, et ils disaient: Celui-ci n’est-il pas 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 Et il leur dit: Assurément vous me direz cette parabole: Médecin, guéris-toi toi-même; fais ici aussi dans ton pays toutes les choses que nous avons entendu dire qui ont été faites à Capernaüm.
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 Et il dit: En vérité, je vous dis qu’aucun prophète n’est reçu dans son pays.
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 Et, en vérité, je vous dis qu’il y avait plusieurs veuves en Israël, aux jours d’Élie, lorsque le ciel fut fermé trois ans et six mois, de sorte qu’il y eut une grande famine par tout le pays;
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 Élie ne fut envoyé vers aucune d’elles, sinon à Sarepta de la Sidonie vers une femme veuve.
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 Et il y avait plusieurs lépreux en Israël au temps d’Élisée le prophète; et aucun d’eux ne fut rendu net, sinon Naaman, le Syrien.
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 Et ils furent tous remplis de colère dans la synagogue en entendant ces choses;
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 et s’étant levés, ils le chassèrent hors de la ville, et le menèrent jusqu’au bord escarpé de la montagne sur laquelle leur ville était bâtie, de manière à l’en précipiter.
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 il descendit à Capernaüm, ville de Galilée, et il les enseignait au jour 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 s’étonnaient de sa doctrine, parce que sa parole était avec 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 Et il y avait dans la synagogue un homme qui avait un esprit de démon immonde; et il s’écria à haute voix,
[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 disant: Ha! qu’y a-t-il entre nous et toi, Jésus Nazarénien? Es-tu venu pour nous détruire? Je te connais, 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 Et Jésus le tança, disant: Tais-toi, et sors de lui. Et le démon, l’ayant jeté au milieu [de tous], sortit de lui sans lui avoir fait 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 Et ils furent tous saisis d’étonnement, et ils parlaient entre eux, disant: Quelle parole est celle-ci? car il commande avec autorité et puissance aux esprits immondes, 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 Et sa renommée se répandait dans tous les lieux d’alentour.
The people were telling everyone in [every village] in the surrounding region what Jesus [had done].
38 Et s’étant levé, [il sortit] de la synagogue et entra dans la maison de Simon. Et la belle-mère de Simon était prise d’une grosse fièvre, et on le pria pour elle.
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 Et s’étant penché sur elle, il tança la fièvre, et [la fièvre] la quitta; et à l’instant s’étant levée, elle les servit.
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 Et comme le soleil se couchait, tous ceux qui avaient des infirmes atteints de diverses maladies, les lui amenèrent; et ayant imposé les mains à chacun d’eux, il 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 Et les démons aussi sortaient de plusieurs, criant et disant: Tu es le Fils de Dieu. Et, les tançant, il ne leur permettait pas de parler, parce qu’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 Et quand il fut jour, il sortit et s’en alla en un lieu désert; et les foules le recherchaient et vinrent jusqu’à lui; et elles le retenaient, afin qu’il ne s’en aille point d’auprès d’elles.
[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 faut que j’annonce le royaume de Dieu aux autres villes aussi; car j’ai été envoyé pour cela.
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].
