KJV ¹ At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn and to eat.

S21 ¹ A cette époque-là, Jésus traversa des champs de blé un jour de sabbat. Ses disciples, qui avaient faim, se mirent à arracher des épis et à manger.

KJV ² But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.

S21 ² A cette vue, les pharisiens lui dirent: «Regarde, tes disciples font ce qu'il n'est pas permis de faire pendant le sabbat.»

KJV ³ But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hungred, and they that were with him;

S21 ³ Mais Jésus leur répondit: «N'avez-vous pas lu ce qu'a fait David lorsqu'il a eu faim, lui et ses compagnons?

KJV ⁴ How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests?

S21 ⁴ Il est entré dans la maison de Dieu et a mangé les pains consacrés que ni lui ni ses compagnons n'avaient le droit de manger et qui étaient réservés aux prêtres seuls!

KJV ⁵ Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?

S21 ⁵ Ou n'avez-vous pas lu dans la loi que, les jours de sabbat, les prêtres violent le sabbat dans le temple sans se rendre coupables?

KJV ⁶ But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.

S21 ⁶ Or, je vous le dis, il y a ici plus grand que le temple.

KJV ⁷ But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.

S21 ⁷ Si vous saviez ce que signifie: Je désire la bonté, et non les sacrifices, vous n'auriez pas condamné des innocents.

KJV ⁸ For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.

S21 ⁸ En effet, le Fils de l'homme est le Seigneur du sabbat.»

KJV ⁹ And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:

S21 ⁹ Jésus partit de là et entra dans la synagogue.

KJV ¹⁰ And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they might accuse him.

S21 ¹⁰ Il s'y trouvait un homme qui avait la main paralysée. Ils demandèrent à Jésus: «Est-il permis de faire une guérison le jour du sabbat?» C'était afin de pouvoir l'accuser.

KJV ¹¹ And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?

S21 ¹¹ Il leur répondit: «Lequel de vous, s'il n'a qu'une brebis et qu'elle tombe dans un trou le jour du sabbat, n'ira pas la retirer de là?

KJV ¹² How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.

S21 ¹² Or, un homme vaut beaucoup plus qu'une brebis! Il est donc permis de faire du bien les jours de sabbat.»

KJV ¹³ Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.

S21 ¹³ Alors il dit à l'homme: «Tends la main.»
Il la tendit, et elle devint saine [comme l'autre].

KJV ¹⁴ Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.

S21 ¹⁴ Les pharisiens sortirent et tinrent conseil sur les moyens de le faire mourir.

KJV ¹⁵ But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;

S21 ¹⁵ Jésus le sut et s'éloigna de là. Une grande foule le suivit. Il guérit tous les malades

KJV ¹⁶ And charged them that they should not make him known:

S21 ¹⁶ et leur recommanda sévèrement de ne pas le faire connaître,

KJV ¹⁷ That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

S21 ¹⁷ afin que s'accomplisse ce que le prophète Esaïe avait annoncé:

KJV ¹⁸ Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles.

S21 ¹⁸ Voici mon serviteur que j'ai choisi, mon bien-aimé qui a toute mon approbation. Je mettrai mon Esprit sur lui, et il annoncera la justice aux nations.

KJV ¹⁹ He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.

S21 ¹⁹ Il ne contestera pas, il ne criera pas, et personne n'entendra sa voix dans les rues.

KJV ²⁰ A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.

S21 ²⁰ Il ne cassera pas le roseau abîmé et n'éteindra pas la mèche qui fume encore, jusqu'à ce qu'il ait fait triompher la justice.

KJV ²¹ And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.

S21 ²¹ Les nations espéreront en son nom.
