1 N ow there gathered together to the Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem,

Les pharisiens et quelques scribes, venus de Jérusalem, s'assemblèrent auprès de Jésus.

2 F or they had seen that some of His disciples ate with common hands, that is, unwashed '> ceremonial washing]—

Ils virent quelques-uns de ses disciples prendre leurs repas avec des mains impures, c'est-à-dire, non lavées.

3 F or the Pharisees and all of the Jews do not eat unless they wash their hands '> up to the elbow] with clenched fist, adhering to the tradition of their forefathers.

Or, les pharisiens et tous les Juifs ne mangent pas sans s'être lavé soigneusement les mains, conformément à la tradition des anciens;

4 A nd from the marketplace, they do not eat unless they purify themselves; and there are many other traditions, the washing of cups and wooden pitchers and widemouthed jugs and utensils of copper and beds—

et, quand ils reviennent de la place publique, ils ne mangent qu'après s'être purifiés. Ils ont encore beaucoup d'autres observances traditionnelles, comme le lavage des coupes, des cruches et des vases d'airain.

5 A nd the Pharisees and scribes kept asking, Why do Your disciples not order their way of living according to the tradition handed down by the forefathers, but eat with hands unwashed and ceremonially not purified?

Et les pharisiens et les scribes lui demandèrent: Pourquoi tes disciples ne suivent-ils pas la tradition des anciens, mais prennent-ils leurs repas avec des mains impures?

6 B ut He said to them, Excellently and truly '> so that there will be no room for blame] did Isaiah prophesy of you, the pretenders and hypocrites, as it stands written: These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts hold off and are far distant from Me.

Jésus leur répondit: Hypocrites, Ésaïe a bien prophétisé sur vous, ainsi qu'il est écrit: Ce peuple m'honore des lèvres, Mais son coeur est éloigné de moi.

7 I n vain (fruitlessly and without profit) do they worship Me, ordering and teaching as doctrines the commandments and precepts of men.

C'est en vain qu'ils m'honorent, En donnant des préceptes qui sont des commandements d'hommes.

8 Y ou disregard and give up and ask to depart from you the commandment of God and cling to the tradition of men.

Vous abandonnez le commandement de Dieu, et vous observez la tradition des hommes.

9 A nd He said to them, You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God in order to keep your tradition (your own human regulations)!

Il leur dit encore: Vous anéantissez fort bien le commandement de Dieu, pour garder votre tradition.

10 F or Moses said, Honor (revere with tenderness of feeling and deference) your father and your mother, and, He who curses or reviles or speaks evil of or abuses or treats improperly his father or mother, let him surely die.

Car Moïse a dit: Honore ton père et ta mère; et: Celui qui maudira son père ou sa mère sera puni de mort.

11 B ut you say, A man is exempt if he tells father or mother, What you would otherwise have gained from me is Corban, that is, is a gift,

Mais vous, vous dites: Si un homme dit à son père ou à sa mère: Ce dont j'aurais pu t'assister est corban, c'est-à-dire, une offrande à Dieu,

12 T hen you no longer are permitting him to do anything for father or mother.

vous ne le laissez plus rien faire pour son père ou pour sa mère,

13 T hus you are nullifying and making void and of no effect the Word of God through your tradition, which you hand on. And many things of this kind you are doing.

annulant ainsi la parole de Dieu par votre tradition, que vous avez établie. Et vous faites beaucoup d'autres choses semblables.

14 A nd He called the people to again and said to them, Listen to Me, all of you, and understand.

Ensuite, ayant de nouveau appelé la foule à lui, il lui dit: Écoutez-moi tous, et comprenez.

15 T here is not one thing outside a man which by going into him can pollute and defile him; but the things which come out of a man are what defile him and make him unhallowed and unclean.

Il n'est hors de l'homme rien qui, entrant en lui, puisse le souiller; mais ce qui sort de l'homme, c'est ce qui le souille.

16 I f any man has ears to hear, let him be listening '> perceive and comprehend by hearing].

Si quelqu'un a des oreilles pour entendre, qu'il entende.

17 A nd when He had left the crowd and had gone into the house, His disciples began asking Him about the parable.

Lorsqu'il fut entré dans la maison, loin de la foule, ses disciples l'interrogèrent sur cette parabole.

18 A nd He said to them, Then are you also unintelligent and dull and without understanding? Do you not discern and see that whatever goes into a man from the outside cannot make him unhallowed or unclean,

Il leur dit: Vous aussi, êtes-vous donc sans intelligence? Ne comprenez-vous pas que rien de ce qui du dehors entre dans l'homme ne peut le souiller?

19 S ince it does not reach and enter his heart but digestive tract, and so passes on ? Thus He was making and declaring all foods clean '> abolishing the ceremonial distinctions of the Levitical Law].

Car cela n'entre pas dans son coeur, mais dans son ventre, puis s'en va dans les lieux secrets, qui purifient tous les aliments.

20 A nd He said, What comes out of a man is what makes a man unclean and renders unhallowed.

Il dit encore: Ce qui sort de l'homme, c'est ce qui souille l'homme.

21 F or from within, out of the hearts of men, come base and wicked thoughts, sexual immorality, stealing, murder, adultery,

Car c'est du dedans, c'est du coeur des hommes, que sortent les mauvaises pensées, les adultères, les impudicités, les meurtres,

22 C oveting (a greedy desire to have more wealth), dangerous and destructive wickedness, deceit; unrestrained (indecent) conduct; an evil eye (envy), slander (evil speaking, malicious misrepresentation, abusiveness), pride ( the sin of an uplifted heart against God and man), foolishness (folly, lack of sense, recklessness, thoughtlessness).

les vols, les cupidités, les méchancetés, la fraude, le dérèglement, le regard envieux, la calomnie, l'orgueil, la folie.

23 A ll these evil come from within, and they make the man unclean and render him unhallowed.

Toutes ces choses mauvaises sortent du dedans, et souillent l'homme.

24 A nd Jesus arose and went away from there to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And He went into a house and did not want anyone to know; but it was not possible for Him to be hidden.

Jésus, étant parti de là, s'en alla dans le territoire de Tyr et de Sidon. Il entra dans une maison, désirant que personne ne le sût; mais il ne put rester caché.

25 I nstead, at once, a woman whose little daughter had (was under the control of) an unclean spirit heard about Him and came and flung herself down at His feet.

Car une femme, dont la fille était possédée d'un esprit impur, entendit parler de lui, et vint se jeter à ses pieds.

26 N ow the woman was a Greek (Gentile), a Syrophoenician by nationality. And she kept begging Him to drive the demon out of her little daughter.

Cette femme était grecque, syro-phénicienne d'origine. Elle le pria de chasser le démon hors de sa fille. Jésus lui dit:

27 A nd He said to her, First let the children be fed, for it is not becoming or proper or right to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.

Laisse d'abord les enfants se rassasier; car il n'est pas bien de prendre le pain des enfants, et de le jeter aux petits chiens.

28 B ut she answered Him, Yes, Lord, yet even the small pups under the table eat the little children’s scraps of food.

Oui, Seigneur, lui répondit-elle, mais les petits chiens, sous la table, mangent les miettes des enfants.

29 A nd He said to her, Because of this saying, you may go your way; the demon has gone out of your daughter.

Alors il lui dit: à cause de cette parole, va, le démon est sorti de ta fille.

30 A nd she went home and found the child thrown on the couch, and the demon departed.

Et, quand elle rentra dans sa maison, elle trouva l'enfant couchée sur le lit, le démon étant sorti.

31 S oon after this, Jesus, coming back from the region of Tyre, passed through Sidon on to the Sea of Galilee, through the region of Decapolis.

Jésus quitta le territoire de Tyr, et revint par Sidon vers la mer de Galilée, en traversant le pays de la Décapole.

32 A nd they brought to Him a man who was deaf and had difficulty in speaking, and they begged Jesus to place His hand upon him.

On lui amena un sourd, qui avait de la difficulté à parler, et on le pria de lui imposer les mains.

33 A nd taking him aside from the crowd, He thrust His fingers into the man’s ears and spat and touched his tongue;

Il le prit à part loin de la foule, lui mit les doigts dans les oreilles, et lui toucha la langue avec sa propre salive;

34 A nd looking up to heaven, He sighed as He said, Ephphatha, which means, Be opened!

puis, levant les yeux au ciel, il soupira, et dit: Éphphatha, c'est-à-dire, ouvre-toi.

35 A nd his ears were opened, his tongue was loosed, and he began to speak distinctly and as he should.

Aussitôt ses oreilles s'ouvrirent, sa langue se délia, et il parla très bien.

36 A nd Jesus '> in His own interest] admonished and ordered them sternly and expressly to tell no one; but the more He commanded them, the more zealously they proclaimed it.

Jésus leur recommanda de n'en parler à personne; mais plus il le leur recommanda, plus ils le publièrent.

37 A nd they were overwhelmingly astonished, saying, He has done everything excellently (commendably and nobly)! He even makes the deaf to hear and the dumb to speak!

Ils étaient dans le plus grand étonnement, et disaient: Il fait tout à merveille; même il fait entendre les sourds, et parler les muets.
