| 1 | Paul and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons: | Paul et Timothée, serviteurs du Christ Jésus, à tous les saints à Philippes, aux évêques et aux diacres : | Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, to all the saints in Christ Jesus that are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons: |
| 2 | Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. | grâce et paix de la part de Dieu notre Père et du Seigneur Jésus-Christ ! | Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. |
| 3 | I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, | Je rends grâces à mon Dieu toutes les fois que je me souviens de vous, et dans toutes mes prières pour vous tous, | I thank my God upon all my remembrance of you, |
| 4 | Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy, | c'est avec joie que je lui adresse ma prière, | always in every supplication of mine on behalf of you all making my supplication with joy, |
| 5 | For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now; | à cause de votre concours unanime pour le progrès de l'Evangile, depuis le premier jours jusqu'à présent; | for your fellowship in furtherance of the gospel from the first day until now; |
| 6 | Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: | et j'ai confiance que celui qui a commencé en vous une oeuvre excellente, en poursuivra l'achèvement jusqu'au jour du Christ. | being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Jesus Christ: |
| 7 | Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace. | C'est une justice que je vous dois, de penser ainsi de vous tous, parce que je vous porte dans mon coeur, vous tous qui, soit dans mes liens, soit dans la défense et l'affermissement de l'Evangile, avez part à la même grâce que moi. | even as it is right for me to be thus minded on behalf of you all, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as, both in my bonds and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers with me of grace. |
| 8 | For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ. | Car Dieu m'en est témoin, c'est avec tendresse que je vous aime tous dans les entrailles de Jésus-Christ. | For God is my witness, how I long after you all in the tender mercies of Christ Jesus. |
| 9 | And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; | Et ce que je lui demande, c'est que votre charité abonde de plus en plus en connaissance et en toute intelligence, | And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all discernment; |
| 10 | That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ. | pour discerner ce qui vaut le mieux, afin que vous soyez purs et irréprochables jusqu'au jour du Christ, | so that ye may approve the things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and void of offence unto the day of Christ; |
| 11 | Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God. | remplis des fruits de justice, par Jésus-Christ, pour la gloire et la louange de Dieu. | being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God. |
| 12 | But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel; | Frères, je désire que vous sachiez que ce qui m'est arrivé a plutôt tourné au progrès de l'Evangile. | Now I would have you know, brethren, that the things [which happened] unto me have fallen out rather unto the progress of the gospel; |
| 13 | So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places; | En effet, pour ceux du prétoire, et pour tous les autres, il est devenu notoire que c'est pour le Christ que je suis dans les chaînes : | so that my bonds became manifest in Christ throughout the whole praetorian guard, and to all the rest; |
| 14 | And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear. | et la plupart des frères dans le Seigneur, encouragés par mes liens, ont redoublé de hardiesse pour annoncer sans crainte la parole de Dieu. | and that most of the brethren in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word of God without fear. |
| 15 | Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will: | Quelques-uns, il est vrai, prêchent aussi Jésus-Christ par envie et par esprit d'opposition; mais d'autres le font avec des dispositions bienveillantes. | Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will: |
| 16 | The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: | Ceux-ci agissent par charité, sachant que je suis établi pour la défense de l'Evangile; | the one [do it] of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel; |
| 17 | But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel. | tandis que les autres, animés d'un esprit de dispute, annoncent le Christ par des motifs qui ne sont pas purs, avec la pensée de me causer un surcroît d'affliction dans mes liens. | but the other proclaim Christ of faction, not sincerely, thinking to raise up affliction for me in my bonds. |
| 18 | What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice. | Mais quoi ? De quelque manière qu'on le fasse, que ce soit avec des arrière-pensées, ou sincèrement, le Christ est annoncé je m'en réjouis, et je m'en réjouirai encore. | What then? only that in every way, whether in pretence or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and therein I rejoice, yea, and will rejoice. |
| 19 | For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, | Car je sais que cela tournera à mon salut, grâce à vos prières et à l'assistance de l'Esprit de Jésus-Christ : | For I know that this shall turn out to my salvation, through your supplication and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, |
| 20 | According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death. | selon l'attente où je suis et l'espérance que j'ai que je ne serai confondu en rien; mais que, maintenant comme toujours, le Christ sera glorifié dans mon corps, soit par ma vie, soit par ma mort; | according to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing shall I be put to shame, but [that] with all boldness, as always, [so] now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death. |
| 21 | For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. | car le Christ est ma vie, et la mort m'est un gain. | For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. |
| 22 | But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not. | Cependant si en vivant plus longtemps dans la chair je dois tirer du fuit, je ne sais que choisir. | But if to live in the flesh, --[if] this shall bring fruit from my work, then what I shall choose I know not. |
| 23 | For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better: | Je suis pressé des deux côtés : j'ai le désir de partir et d'être avec le Christ, ce qui est de beaucoup le meilleur; | But I am in a strait betwixt the two, having the desire to depart and be with Christ; for it is very far better: |
| 24 | Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you. | mais il est plus nécessaire que je demeure dans la chair à cause de vous. | yet to abide in the flesh is more needful for your sake. |
| 25 | And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith; | Et je le sais, j'en ai l'assurance, je demeurerai et je resterai avec vous tous, pour l'avancement et pour la joie de votre foi, | And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide, yea, and abide with you all, for your progress and joy in the faith; |
| 26 | That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again. | afin que, par mon retour auprès de vous, vous ayez en moi un abondant sujet de vous glorifier en Jésus-Christ. | that your glorying may abound in Christ Jesus in me through my presence with you again. |
| 27 | Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel; | Seulement, conduisez-vous d'une manière digne de l'Evangile du Christ, afin que, soit que je vienne et que je vous voie, soit que je demeure absent, j'entende dire de vous que vous tenez ferme dans un seul et même esprit, combattant d'un même coeur pour la foi de l'Evangile, | Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ: that, whether I come and see you and be absent, I may hear of your state, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the gospel; |
| 28 | And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God. | sans vous laisser aucunement intimider par les adversaires : c'est là pour eux un signe de ruine, mais pour vous, de salut, et par la volonté de Dieu. | and in nothing affrighted by the adversaries: which is for them an evident token of perdition, but of your salvation, and that from God; |
| 29 | For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake; | Car c'est une grâce qu'il vous a faite, à vous, à l'égard du Christ, non seulement de croire en lui, mais encore de souffrir pour lui, | because to you it hath been granted in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer in his behalf: |
| 30 | Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me. | en soutenant le même combat que vous m'avez vu soutenir, et que, vous le savez, je soutiens encore aujourd'hui. | having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me. |
