KJV ¹ Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,

S21 ¹ La quinzième année du règne de l'empereur Tibère, Ponce Pilate était gouverneur de la Judée, Hérode tétrarque de la Galilée, son frère Philippe tétrarque du territoire de l'Iturée et de la Trachonite, Lysanias tétrarque de l'Abilène,

TR1550 ¹ ἐν ἔτει δὲ πεντεκαιδεκάτῳ τῆς ἡγεμονίας τιβερίου καίσαρος ἡγεμονεύοντος ποντίου πιλάτου τῆς ἰουδαίας καὶ τετραρχοῦντος τῆς γαλιλαίας ἡρῴδου φιλίππου δὲ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ τετραρχοῦντος, τῆς ἰτουραίας καὶ τραχωνίτιδος χώρας καὶ λυσανίου τῆς ἀβιληνῆς τετραρχοῦντος

KJV ² Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

S21 ² et Anne et Caïphe étaient grands-prêtres. C'est alors que la parole de Dieu fut adressée à Jean, fils de Zacharie, dans le désert,

TR1550 ² ἐπ᾽ ἀρχιερέων ἅννα καὶ καϊάφα ἐγένετο ῥῆμα θεοῦ ἐπὶ ἰωάννην τὸν τοῦ ξαχαρίου υἱὸν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ

KJV ³ And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;

S21 ³ et Jean parcourut toute la région du Jourdain; il prêchait le baptême de repentance pour le pardon des péchés,

TR1550 ³ καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν περίχωρον τοῦ ἰορδάνου κηρύσσων βάπτισμα μετανοίας εἰς ἄφεσιν ἁμαρτιῶν

KJV ⁴ As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

S21 ⁴ conformément à ce qui est écrit dans le livre des paroles du prophète Esaïe: C'est la voix de celui qui crie dans le désert: ‘Préparez le chemin du Seigneur, rendez ses sentiers droits.'

TR1550 ⁴ ὡς γέγραπται ἐν βίβλῳ λόγων ἠσαΐου τοῦ προφήτου λέγοντος, φωνὴ βοῶντος ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ἑτοιμάσατε τὴν ὁδὸν κυρίου εὐθείας ποιεῖτε τὰς τρίβους αὐτοῦ

KJV ⁵ Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth;

S21 ⁵ Toute vallée sera comblée, toute montagne et toute colline seront abaissées; ce qui est tortueux sera redressé et les chemins rocailleux seront aplanis.

TR1550 ⁵ πᾶσα φάραγξ πληρωθήσεται καὶ πᾶν ὄρος καὶ βουνὸς ταπεινωθήσεται καὶ ἔσται τὰ σκολιὰ εἰς εὐθείαν καὶ αἱ τραχεῖαι εἰς ὁδοὺς λείας

KJV ⁶ And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.

S21 ⁶ Et tout homme verra le salut de Dieu. 

TR1550 ⁶ καὶ ὄψεται πᾶσα σὰρξ τὸ σωτήριον τοῦ θεοῦ

KJV ⁷ Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

S21 ⁷ Il disait donc aux foules qui venaient se faire baptiser par lui: «Races de vipères, qui vous a appris à fuir la colère à venir?

TR1550 ⁷ ἕλεγεν οὖν τοῖς ἐκπορευομένοις ὄχλοις βαπτισθῆναι ὑπ᾽ αὐτοῦ γεννήματα ἐχιδνῶν τίς ὑπέδειξεν ὑμῖν φυγεῖν ἀπὸ τῆς μελλούσης ὀργῆς

KJV ⁸ Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

S21 ⁸ Produisez donc des fruits qui confirment votre changement d'attitude et ne vous mettez pas à dire en vous-mêmes: ‘Nous avons Abraham pour ancêtre!' En effet, je vous déclare que de ces pierres Dieu peut faire naître des descendants à Abraham.

TR1550 ⁸ ποιήσατε οὖν καρποὺς ἀξίους τῆς μετανοίας καὶ μὴ ἄρξησθε λέγειν ἐν ἑαυτοῖς πατέρα ἔχομεν τὸν ἀβραάμ λέγω γὰρ ὑμῖν ὅτι δύναται ὁ θεὸς ἐκ τῶν λίθων τούτων ἐγεῖραι τέκνα τῷ ἀβραάμ

KJV ⁹ And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

S21 ⁹ Déjà la hache est mise à la racine des arbres: tout arbre qui ne produit pas de bons fruits sera donc coupé et jeté au feu.»

TR1550 ⁹ ἤδη δὲ καὶ ἡ ἀξίνη πρὸς τὴν ῥίζαν τῶν δένδρων κεῖται πᾶν οὖν δένδρον μὴ ποιοῦν καρπὸν καλὸν ἐκκόπτεται καὶ εἰς πῦρ βάλλεται

KJV ¹⁰ And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?

S21 ¹⁰ La foule l'interrogeait: «Que devons-nous donc faire?»

TR1550 ¹⁰ καὶ ἐπηρώτων αὐτὸν οἱ ὄχλοι λέγοντες τί οὖν ποιήσομεν

KJV ¹¹ He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.

S21 ¹¹ Il leur répondit: «Que celui qui a deux chemises partage avec celui qui n'en a pas, et que celui qui a de quoi manger fasse de même.»

TR1550 ¹¹ ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ ἔχων δύο χιτῶνας μεταδότω τῷ μὴ ἔχοντι καὶ ὁ ἔχων βρώματα ὁμοίως ποιείτω

KJV ¹² Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?

S21 ¹² Des collecteurs d'impôts vinrent aussi pour se faire baptiser; ils lui dirent: «Maître, que devons-nous faire?»

TR1550 ¹² ἦλθον δὲ καὶ τελῶναι βαπτισθῆναι καὶ εἶπον πρὸς αὐτόν διδάσκαλε τί ποιήσομεν

KJV ¹³ And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.

S21 ¹³ Il leur répondit: «N'exigez rien de plus que ce qui vous a été ordonné.»

TR1550 ¹³ ὁ δὲ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς μηδὲν πλέον παρὰ τὸ διατεταγμένον ὑμῖν πράσσετε

KJV ¹⁴ And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.

S21 ¹⁴ Des soldats aussi lui demandèrent: «Et nous, que devons-nous faire?»
Il leur répondit: «Ne commettez ni extorsion ni tort envers personne et contentez-vous de votre solde.»

TR1550 ¹⁴ ἐπηρώτων δὲ αὐτὸν καὶ στρατευόμενοι λέγοντες καὶ ἡμεῖς τί ποιήσομεν καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς μηδένα διασείσητε μηδὲ συκοφαντήσητε καὶ ἀρκεῖσθε τοῖς ὀψωνίοις ὑμῶν

KJV ¹⁵ And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;

S21 ¹⁵ Le peuple était dans l'attente et tous se demandaient en eux-mêmes si Jean n'était pas le Messie.

TR1550 ¹⁵ προσδοκῶντος δὲ τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ διαλογιζομένων πάντων ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις αὐτῶν περὶ τοῦ ἰωάννου μήποτε αὐτὸς εἴη ὁ χριστός

KJV ¹⁶ John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:

S21 ¹⁶ Alors il leur dit: «Moi, je vous baptise d'eau; mais il vient, celui qui est plus puissant que moi, et je ne suis pas digne de détacher la courroie de ses sandales. Lui, il vous baptisera du Saint-Esprit et de feu.

TR1550 ¹⁶ ἀπεκρίνατο ὁ ἰωάννης ἅπασιν λέγων, ἐγὼ μὲν ὕδατι βαπτίζω ὑμᾶς ἔρχεται δὲ ὁ ἰσχυρότερός μου οὗ οὐκ εἰμὶ ἱκανὸς λῦσαι τὸν ἱμάντα τῶν ὑποδημάτων αὐτοῦ αὐτὸς ὑμᾶς βαπτίσει ἐν πνεύματι ἁγίῳ καὶ πυρί

KJV ¹⁷ Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.

S21 ¹⁷ Il a sa pelle à la main; il nettoiera son aire de battage et il amassera le blé dans son grenier, mais il brûlera la paille dans un feu qui ne s'éteint pas.»

TR1550 ¹⁷ οὗ τὸ πτύον ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ διακαθᾶριεῖ τὴν ἅλωνα αὐτοῦ καὶ συναξεῖ τὸν σῖτον εἰς τὴν ἀποθήκην αὐτοῦ τὸ δὲ ἄχυρον κατακαύσει πυρὶ ἀσβέστῳ

KJV ¹⁸ And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.

S21 ¹⁸ C'est ainsi, avec encore beaucoup d'autres encouragements, que Jean annonçait la bonne nouvelle au peuple.

TR1550 ¹⁸ πολλὰ μὲν οὖν καὶ ἕτερα παρακαλῶν εὐηγγελίζετο τὸν λαόν

KJV ¹⁹ But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,

S21 ¹⁹ Cependant, Hérode le tétrarque, à qui Jean faisait des reproches au sujet d'Hérodiade, la femme de son frère [Philippe], et de toutes les mauvaises actions qu'il avait commises,

TR1550 ¹⁹ ὁ δὲ ἡρῴδης ὁ τετράρχης, ἐλεγχόμενος ὑπ᾽ αὐτοῦ περὶ ἡρῳδιάδος τῆς γυναικὸς φιλίππου τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ καὶ περὶ πάντων ὧν ἐποίησεν πονηρῶν ὁ ἡρῴδης

KJV ²⁰ Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.

S21 ²⁰ ajouta encore à toutes les autres celle d'enfermer Jean en prison.

TR1550 ²⁰ προσέθηκεν καὶ τοῦτο ἐπὶ πᾶσιν καὶ κατέκλεισεν τὸν ἰωάννην ἐν τῇ φυλακῇ

KJV ²¹ Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,

S21 ²¹ Comme tout le peuple était baptisé, Jésus aussi fut baptisé. Pendant qu'il priait, le ciel s'ouvrit

TR1550 ²¹ ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ βαπτισθῆναι ἅπαντα τὸν λαὸν καὶ ἰησοῦ βαπτισθέντος καὶ προσευχομένου ἀνεῳχθῆναι τὸν οὐρανὸν

KJV ²² And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.

S21 ²² et le Saint-Esprit descendit sur lui sous une forme corporelle, comme une colombe. Et une voix fit entendre du ciel ces paroles: «Tu es mon Fils bien-aimé, tu as toute mon approbation.»

TR1550 ²² καὶ καταβῆναι τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον σωματικῷ εἴδει ὡσεὶ περιστερὰν ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν καὶ φωνὴν ἐξ οὐρανοῦ γενέσθαι λέγουσαν, σὺ εἶ ὁ υἱός μου ὁ ἀγαπητός ἐν σοὶ ἠυδόκησα

KJV ²³ And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,

S21 ²³ Jésus avait environ 30 ans lorsqu'il commença son ministère. Il était, comme on le croyait, fils de Joseph, fils d'Héli,
