KJV ¹ And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,

S21 ¹ Un jour, Jésus se trouvait au bord du lac de Génésareth et la foule se pressait autour de lui pour entendre la parole de Dieu.

KJV ² And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.

S21 ² Il vit au bord du lac deux barques; les pêcheurs en étaient descendus pour laver leurs filets.

KJV ³ And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship.

S21 ³ Il monta dans l'une de ces barques, qui appartenait à Simon, et il le pria de s'éloigner un peu du rivage. Puis il s'assit, et de la barque il enseignait la foule.

KJV ⁴ Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.

S21 ⁴ Quand il eut fini de parler, il dit à Simon: «Avance là où l'eau est profonde et jetez vos filets pour pêcher.»

KJV ⁵ And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

S21 ⁵ Simon lui répondit: «Maître, nous avons travaillé toute la nuit sans rien prendre; mais sur ta parole, je jetterai les filets.»

KJV ⁶ And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.

S21 ⁶ Ils les jetèrent et prirent une grande quantité de poissons, et leurs filets se déchiraient.

KJV ⁷ And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.

S21 ⁷ Ils firent signe à leurs compagnons qui étaient dans l'autre barque de venir les aider. Ils vinrent et remplirent les deux barques, au point qu'elles s'enfonçaient.

KJV ⁸ When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.

S21 ⁸ Quand il vit cela, Simon Pierre tomba aux genoux de Jésus et dit: «Seigneur, éloigne-toi de moi, parce que je suis un homme pécheur.»

KJV ⁹ For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:

S21 ⁹ En effet, lui et tous ceux qui étaient avec lui étaient remplis de frayeur à cause de la pêche qu'ils avaient faite.

KJV ¹⁰ And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men.

S21 ¹⁰ Il en allait de même pour Jacques et Jean, les fils de Zébédée, les associés de Simon.
Jésus dit à Simon: «N'aie pas peur, désormais tu seras pêcheur d'hommes.»

KJV ¹¹ And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed him.

S21 ¹¹ Alors ils ramenèrent les barques à terre, laissèrent tout et le suivirent.
