| 1 | O homme, qui que tu sois, toi qui juges, tu es donc inexcusable ; car, en jugeant les autres, tu te condamnes toi-même, puisque toi qui juges, tu fais les mêmes choses. | Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. | Wherefore thou art without excuse, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judges another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest dost practise the same things. |
| 2 | Nous savons, en effet, que le jugement de Dieu contre ceux qui commettent de telles choses est selon la vérité. | But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things. | And we know that the judgment of God is according to truth against them that practise such things. |
| 3 | Et penses-tu, ô homme, qui juges ceux qui commettent de telles choses, et qui les fais, que tu échapperas au jugement de Dieu ? | And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? | And reckonest thou this, O man, who judgest them that practise such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? |
| 4 | Ou méprises-tu les richesses de sa bonté, de sa patience et de sa longanimité, ne reconnaissant pas que la bonté de Dieu te pousse à la repentance ? | Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? | Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? |
| 5 | Mais, par ton endurcissement et par ton coeur impénitent, tu t'amasses un trésor de colère pour le jour de la colère et de la manifestation du juste jugement de Dieu, | But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; | but after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up for thyself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; |
| 6 | qui rendra à chacun selon ses oeuvres ; | Who will render to every man according to his deeds: | who will render to every man according to his works: |
| 7 | réservant la vie éternelle à ceux qui, par la persévérance à bien faire, cherchent l'honneur, la gloire et l'immortalité ; | To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: | to them that by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruption, eternal life: |
| 8 | mais l'irritation et la colère à ceux qui, par esprit de dispute, sont rebelles à la vérité et obéissent à l'injustice. | But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, | but unto them that are factious, and obey not the truth, but obey unrighteousness, [shall be] wrath and indignation, |
| 9 | Tribulation et angoisse sur toute âme d'homme qui fait le mal, sur le Juif premièrement, puis sur le Grec ! | Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile; | tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that worketh evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Greek; |
| 10 | Gloire, honneur et paix pour quiconque fait le bien, pour le Juif premièrement, puis pour le Grec ! | But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile: | but glory and honor and peace to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek: |
| 11 | Car devant Dieu il n'y a point d'acception de personnes. | For there is no respect of persons with God. | for there is no respect of persons with God. |
| 12 | Tous ceux qui ont péché sans la loi périront aussi sans la loi, et tous ceux qui ont péché avec la loi seront jugés par la loi. | For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; | For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without the law: and as many as have sinned under the law shall be judged by the law; |
| 13 | Ce ne sont pas, en effet, ceux qui écoutent la loi qui sont justes devant Dieu, mais ce sont ceux qui la mettent en pratique qui seront justifiés. | (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. | for not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified: |
| 14 | Quand les païens, qui n'ont point la loi, font naturellement ce que prescrit la loi, ils sont, eux qui n'ont point la loi, une loi pour eux-mêmes ; | For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: | (for when Gentiles that have not the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are the law unto themselves; |
| 15 | ils montrent que l'oeuvre de la loi est écrite dans leurs coeurs, leur conscience en rendant témoignage, et leurs pensées s'accusant ou se défendant tour à tour. | Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;) | in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness therewith, and their thoughts one with another accusing or else excusing [them]); |
| 16 | C'est ce qui paraîtra au jour où, selon mon Évangile, Dieu jugera par Jésus Christ les actions secrètes des hommes. | In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel. | in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men, according to my gospel, by Jesus Christ. |
| 17 | Toi qui te donnes le nom de Juif, qui te reposes sur la loi, qui te glorifies de Dieu, | Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God, | But if thou bearest the name of a Jew, and restest upon the law, and gloriest in God, |
| 18 | qui connais sa volonté, qui apprécies la différence des choses, étant instruit par la loi ; | And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law; | and knowest his will, and approvest the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law, |
| 19 | toi qui te flattes d'être le conducteur des aveugles, la lumière de ceux qui sont dans les ténèbres, | And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness, | and art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them that are in darkness, |
| 20 | le docteur des insensés, le maître des ignorants, parce que tu as dans la loi la règle de la science et de la vérité ; | An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law. | a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babes, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth; |
| 21 | toi donc, qui enseignes les autres, tu ne t'enseignes pas toi-même ! Toi qui prêches de ne pas dérober, tu dérobes ! | Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal? | thou therefore that teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal? |
| 22 | Toi qui dis de ne pas commettre d'adultère, tu commets l'adultère ! Toi qui as en abomination les idoles, tu commets des sacrilèges ! | Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege? | thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou rob temples? |
| 23 | Toi qui te fais une gloire de la loi, tu déshonores Dieu par la transgression de la loi ! | Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God? | thou who gloriest in the law, through thy transgression of the law dishonorest thou God? |
| 24 | Car le nom de Dieu est à cause de vous blasphémé parmi les païens, comme cela est écrit. | For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written. | For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you, even as it is written. |
| 25 | La circoncision est utile, si tu mets en pratique la loi ; mais si tu transgresses la loi, ta circoncision devient incirconcision. | For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision. | For circumcision indeed profiteth, if thou be a doer of the law: but if thou be a transgressor of the law, thy circumcision is become uncircumcision. |
| 26 | Si donc l'incirconcis observe les ordonnances de la loi, son incirconcision ne sera-t-elle pas tenue pour circoncision ? | Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? | If therefore the uncircumcision keep the ordinances of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be reckoned for circumcision? |
| 27 | L'incirconcis de nature, qui accomplit la loi, ne te condamnera-t-il pas, toi qui la transgresses, tout en ayant la lettre de la loi et la circoncision ? | And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law? | and shall not the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who with the letter and circumcision art a transgressor of the law? |
| 28 | Le Juif, ce n'est pas celui qui en a les dehors ; et la circoncision, ce n'est pas celle qui est visible dans la chair. | For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: | For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh: |
| 29 | Mais le Juif, c'est celui qui l'est intérieurement ; et la circoncision, c'est celle du coeur, selon l'esprit et non selon la lettre. La louange de ce Juif ne vient pas des hommes, mais de Dieu. | But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. | but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. |
