Le coeur est traître

Jr 17:9-10

9. Le cœur est plus traître que toute autre chose et il est prêt à tout. Qui peut le connaître ? 10. Moi, Jéhovah, je scrute le cœur, j’examine les pensées les plus secrètes, pour donner à chacun ce qu’il mérite pour sa conduite et ses actions.

The Sin Against the Holy Spirit

Mt 12:30-32

30 “Whoever is not with me is against me. Whoever does not ·work [gather] with me ·is working against me [scatters; C?probably a reference to gathering or scattering a flock; John 10:12].

31 So I tell you, people can be forgiven for every sin and ·everything they say against God [blasphemy]. But whoever ·speaks [blasphemes] against the ·Holy Spirit [L?Spirit] will not be forgiven.

32 Anyone who speaks against the Son of Man can be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, ·now or in the future [L?neither in this age, nor the one to come].

Jugez pas ses actions

Mt 7:1-2

« Arrêtez de juger, et vous ne serez pas jugés.2Car c’est de la façon dont vous jugez que vous serez jugés, et c’est avec la mesure que vous utilisez pour mesurer qu’on mesurera pour vous.

24 laisse ton présent là, devant l'autel, et va-t'en; d'abord, fais la paix avec ton frère{Mt 18:15, 1P 3:11}, et puis, quand tu seras revenu, offre ton présent{1Tm 2:8, 1Jn 4:20}.

Anyone Not Against Us Is for Us

Lc 9:49-50

49 John answered, “Master, we saw someone using your name to ·force [drive; cast] demons out of people. We told him to stop, because he ·does not belong to our group [L?does not follow with us].”



50 But Jesus said to him, “Don’t ·stop [hinder; forbid] him, because whoever is not against you is for you.”

A Town Rejects Jesus

Lc 9:51-56

51 When the time was coming near for Jesus to ·depart [ascend], he ·was determined to go to [resolutely set out for; L?set his face toward] Jerusalem [Matt. 19:1–2; Mark 10:1].

52 He sent some messengers ahead of him, who went into a town in Samaria to make everything ready for him.

53 But the people there would not ·welcome [receive] him, because he was ·set on going to [heading towards; L?traveling with his face toward] Jerusalem [C?Samaritans worshiped at Mount Gerizim, not in Jerusalem].

54 When James and John, ·followers [disciples] of Jesus, saw this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven and ·destroy [burn up; consume] those people[a.] [2 Kin. 1:10]?”



55 But Jesus turned and ·scolded [rebuked] them. |And Jesus said, “You don’t know what kind of spirit you belong to.

56 The Son of Man [C?a title for the Messiah; Dan. 7:13–14] did not come to destroy the ·souls [lives] of people but to save them.”|[b.] Then they went to another town.

Following Jesus

Lc 9:57-62

57 As they were going along the road, someone said to Jesus, “I will follow you ·any place [wherever] you go.”



58 Jesus said to them, “The foxes have ·holes [dens] to live in, and the ·birds [L?birds of the sky] have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to ·rest [lay] his head.”



59 Jesus said to another man, “Follow me!”



But he said, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”



60 But Jesus said to him, “Let the people who are [C?spiritually] dead bury their own dead. You must go and ·tell about [proclaim] the kingdom of God.”



61 Another man said, “I will follow you, Lord, but first let me go and say good-bye to my family.”



62 Jesus said, “Anyone who ·begins to plow a field [L?puts a hand to the plow] but keeps looking back is ·of no use in [or not fit for] the kingdom of God.”

Jesus Warns Unbelievers

Lc 10:16

16 “Whoever listens to you listens to me [Matt. 10:40; John 13:20], and whoever ·refuses to accept [rejects] you ·refuses to accept [rejects] me. And whoever ·refuses to accept [rejects] me ·refuses to accept [rejects] the One who sent me.”

Mary and Martha

Lc 10:38-42

38 While ·Jesus and his followers [L?they] were traveling, Jesus went into a ·town [village]. A woman named Martha ·let Jesus stay at her house [L?welcomed/received him].

39 Martha had a sister named Mary, who was sitting at the Lord’s feet and listening to ·him teach [what he said; L?his word/message; C?sitting at a teacher’s feet indicates the position of a disciple; see Acts 22:3].

40 But Martha was ·busy [worried; distracted] with ·all the work to be done [the many preparations]. She went in and said, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me alone to ·do all the work [serve; prepare the meal]? [Please; L?Therefore] Tell her to help me.”

41 But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are ·worried [anxious] and upset about many things.

42 Only one thing is ·important [necessary; needed]. Mary has chosen the better thing, and it will never be taken away from her.”

Continue To Ask

Lc 11:5-13

5 Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose one of you went to your friend’s house at midnight and said to him, ‘Friend, loan me three loaves of bread.

6 A friend of mine has come ·into town [L?from the road] to visit me, but I have nothing ·for him to eat [to offer him; L?to set before him].’

7 Your friend inside the house answers, ‘Don’t bother me! The door is already ·locked [shut], and my children ·and I are [L?are with me] in bed [C?a small Palestinian home where everyone slept in one room]. I cannot get up and give you anything.’

8 I tell you, [L?even] if friendship is not enough to make him get up to give you the bread, ·your boldness will make him [your shameless persistence will make him; or in order not to be shamed before the community he will] get up and give you whatever you need.

9 So I tell you, ·ask [keep on asking], and God will give to you. ·Search [Keep on searching/seeking], and you will find. ·Knock [Keep on knocking], and the door will open for you.

10 ·Yes, [L?For; Because] everyone who asks will receive. The one who ·searches [seeks] will find. And everyone who knocks will have the door opened.

11 If your ·children ask [or son asks] for[b.] a fish, which of you fathers would give them a snake instead?

12 Or, if ·your children ask [or he asks] for an egg, would you give them a scorpion?

13 Even though you are ·bad [sinful; evil], you know how to give good ·things [L?gifts] to your children. How much more your heavenly Father will give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”

b. Luke 11:11 for Some Greek copies include the phrase “for bread, which of you would give them a stone, or if they ask for … ”

Jesus' Power Is for God

Lc 11:23

23 “Anyone who is not with me is against me, and anyone who does not ·work [L?gather] with me ·is working against me [scatters; C?the metaphor is probably to gathering or scattering a flock; John 10:12].

Jesus Accuses the Pharisees

Lc 11:37-44

37 After Jesus had finished speaking, a Pharisee asked Jesus to ·eat [dine] with him. So Jesus went in and ·sat at the table [reclined; C? the posture for a banquet or dinner party; see 7:36].

38 But the Pharisee was surprised when he saw that Jesus did not wash his hands before the meal [C?a Jewish ritual for ceremonial purity].

39 The Lord said to him, “You Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and the dish, but inside you are full of ·greed [extortion; robbery] and ·evil [wickedness]. 40 You foolish people! The same one who made what is outside also made what is inside.

41 So ·give what is in your dishes [or give from your hearts; L?give the inside things] ·to the poor [as alms], and then ·you [everything] will be fully clean.

42 ·How terrible for [L?Woe to] you Pharisees! You ·give God one-tenth of [pay tithe on] even your mint, your rue, and every other ·plant [herb] in your garden. But you ·fail to be fair to others [neglect to show justice] and to love God. These are the things you should do ·while continuing [without neglecting] to do those other things.

43 ·How terrible for [L?Woe to] you Pharisees, because you love to have the most ·important [honorable] seats in the synagogues, and you love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces.

44 ·How terrible for [L?Woe to] you, because you are like ·hidden [unmarked] graves, which people walk on without knowing.”

Don’t Worry

Lc 12:22-31

22 Jesus said to his ·followers [disciples], “So I tell you, don’t worry about the food you need to live, or about the clothes you need for your body.

23 [L?For] Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothes.

24 ·Look at [Consider; Think of] the ·birds [L?ravens]. They don’t ·plant [sow] or ·harvest [reap], they don’t have storerooms or barns, but God feeds them. And you are worth much more than birds.

25 ·You cannot [L?Who of you can…?] add ·any time [or a step; L?a cubit; C?about eighteen inches] to your ·life [or height; C?the Greek is ambiguous, but probably refers to time instead of stature] by worrying about it.

26 If you cannot ·do [change] even the little things [by worrying], then why worry about the ·big things [L?the rest]?

27 ·Consider [Look; Think] how the lilies grow; they don’t ·work [toil] or ·make clothes for themselves [L?spin thread]. But I tell you that even Solomon ·with his riches [L?in all his glory] was not dressed as beautifully as one of these flowers.

28 God clothes [L?If God clothes…?] the ·grass [wildflower] in the field, which is alive today but tomorrow is thrown into the ·fire [L?furnace; oven]. So how much more will God clothe you? ·Don’t have so little faith [or You people of little faith; or How little faith you have]!

29 Don’t always think about what you will eat or what you will drink, and don’t keep worrying.

30 All the ·people [nations; Gentiles; pagans] in the world are trying to get these things, and your Father knows you need them.

31 But seek God’s kingdom, and ·all your other needs will be met as well [L?these things will be given to you].

Don’t Make Yourself Important

Lc 14:12

11 [L?For; Because] All who ·make themselves great [exalt themselves] will be made humble, but those who make themselves humble will be ·made great [exalted].”

Sin and Forgiveness

Lc 17:1-4

1 Jesus said to his ·followers [disciples], “·Things that cause people to sin [Stumbling blocks; Causes of sin; Temptations] ·will happen [are inevitable; L?it is impossible for them not to come], but ·how terrible for [L?woe to] the person who causes them to happen!

2 It would be better for ·you [L?him; that person] to be thrown into the sea with a ·large [L?mill] stone around ·your [L?his] neck than to cause one of these little ones to ·sin [stumble].

3 So ·be careful [watch yourselves]!



“If ·another follower [fellow believer; L?your brother (or sister)] sins, ·warn [rebuke] him, and if he ·is sorry and stops sinning [repents], forgive him.

4 If he sins against you seven times ·in one day [or each day] and ·says that he is sorry each time [repents seven times], forgive him.”

How Big Is Your Faith?

Lc 17:5-6

5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Give us more faith!”



6 The Lord said, “If your faith were the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘·Dig yourself up [Be uprooted] and plant yourself in the sea,’ and it would obey you.

Be Good Servants

Lc 17:7-10

7 “Suppose one of you has a ·servant [slave] who has been plowing the ground or caring for the sheep. When the servant comes in from working in the field, would you say, ‘Come in and ·sit down to eat [L?recline; C?the posture for a banquet or formal meal]’?

8 No, ·you [L?he] would say to him, ‘Prepare something for me to eat. Then ·get yourself ready [or put on your apron; L?gird yourself] and ·serve [wait on] me. After I finish eating and drinking, you can eat and drink.’

9 ·The servant does not get any special thanks [L?Does he thank the servant…?] for doing what his master commanded.

10 It is the same with you. When you have done everything you are told to do, you should say, ‘We are ·unworthy [undeserving; worthless] servants; we have only done ·the work we should do [our duty; our obligation].’”

A Rich Man’s Question

Lc 18:18-25

18 A certain ·leader [ruler] asked Jesus, “Good Teacher, what must I do to ·have life forever [L?inherit eternal life]?”



19 Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? ·Only God is good [L?No one is good except one—God; C?Jesus is not denying his own divinity, but is challenging the man’s understanding of goodness].

20 You know the commands: ‘You must not ·be guilty of [commit] adultery. You must not murder anyone. You must not steal. You must not ·tell lies [testify falsely] about your neighbor. Honor your father and mother [Ex. 20:12–16; Deut. 5:16–20].’”



21 But the leader said, “I have ·obeyed [kept carefully; guarded] all these commands since ·I was a boy [my youth].”



22 When Jesus heard this, he said to him, “There is still one more thing you ·need to do [lack]. Sell everything you have and give it to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come and follow me.”

23 But when the man heard this, he became very sad, because he was ·very [extremely] rich.



24 ·Jesus looked at him and [or When Jesus saw this reaction, he] said, “·It is very hard [L?How hard it is…!] for ·rich people [L?those who have wealth] to enter the kingdom of God.

25 [L?For; Indeed] It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God [C?meaning it is impossible, by human effort; see v. 27].”

Who Can Be Saved?

Lc 18:26-30

26 When the people heard this, they asked, “Then who can be saved?”



27 Jesus answered, “The things impossible ·for people [humanly speaking] are possible for God.”



28 Peter said, “Look, we have left ·everything [or our possessions; or our home] and followed you.”



29 Jesus said, “I tell you the truth, all those who have left houses, wives, brothers [or siblings], parents, or children ·for [for the sake of] the kingdom of God

30 will get much more in this ·life [age; L?time]. And in the ·age [aeon; world] that is coming, they will have ·life forever [eternal life].”

A Story About Three Servants

Lc 19:11-27

11 As ·the people [L?they; C?either the disciples, the guests of Zacchaeus, or the larger crowd] were listening to this, Jesus told them a ·story [parable] because he was near Jerusalem and ·they thought [it seemed to them] God’s kingdom would appear immediately.

12 He said: “A ·very important man [nobleman] went to a country far away to ·be made a king [L?receive a kingdom] and then to return home [C?Judean kings, like Herod the Great and his son Archelaus, received their authority to rule from the emperor in Rome].

13 So he called ten of his ·servants [slaves] and gave a coin [C?Greek: mina; worth 100 denarii, or about 3 months’ wages] to each servant. He said, ‘·Do business with [Invest; Trade with] this money until I get back.’

14 But ·the people in the kingdom [L?his citizens/subjects] hated the man. So they sent a ·group [delegation; embassy] to follow him and say, ‘We don’t want this man to ·be our king [L?rule/reign over us].’



15 “But the man ·became king [L?received the kingdom]. When he returned home, he said, ‘Call those ·servants [slaves] who have my money so I can know how much they earned with it.’



16 “The first servant came and said, ‘Sir, ·I earned ten coins with the one you gave me [L?your mina has earned ten minas].’

17 The king said to the servant, ‘Excellent! ·You are a good servant [Good servant/slave!]. Since ·I can trust you [you have been faithful] with small things, I will let you ·rule [govern; L?have authority] over ten of my cities.’



18 “The second servant said, ‘Sir, ·I earned five coins with your one [L?your mina earned five minas].’

19 The king said to this servant, ‘You can ·rule [be; take charge] over five cities.’



20 “Then another servant came in and said to the king, ‘Sir, here is your ·coin [mina] which I ·wrapped [stored away] in a ·piece of cloth [handkerchief] and hid.

21 [L?For; Because] I was afraid of you, because you are a ·hard [harsh; demanding; severe] man. You even take ·money that [L?out what] you didn’t ·earn [L?put in] and ·gather food that [harvest what] you didn’t ·plant [sow].’

22 Then the king said to the servant, ‘I will ·condemn [judge] you ·by your own words [L?from your mouth], you ·evil [wicked; or worthless] servant. You knew that I am a ·hard [harsh; demanding; severe] man, taking ·money that [L?out what] I didn’t ·earn [L?put in]and ·gathering food that [L?harvesting what] I didn’t ·plant [sow].

23 Why then didn’t you put my money ·in the bank [L?on the table; C?referring to the banker’s table]? Then when I came back, my money would have earned some interest.’



24 “·The king [He] said to the men who were standing by, ‘Take the ·coin [L?mina] away from this servant and give it to the servant who earned ten ·coins [L?minas].’

25 They said, ‘But sir, that servant already has ten ·coins [L?minas].’

26 ·The king said [L?I say to you], ‘Those who have will be given more, but those who do not have anything ·will have everything [L?even what they have will be] taken away from them.

27 Now ·where are my enemies [or concerning those enemies] who didn’t want me to ·be king [rule/reign over them]? Bring them here and ·kill [slay; slaughter] them before me.’”

The Story of the Evil Farmers

Lc 20:9-19

9 Then Jesus ·told [L?began/proceeded to tell] the people this ·story [parable]: “A man planted a vineyard and leased it to some [C?tenant] farmers [C?Jesus builds on Is. 5:1–7; the owner represents God; the farmers are Israel’s religious leaders]. Then he ·went away [took a journey] for a long time.

10 ·When it was time for the grapes to be picked [L?At the (harvest) time], he sent a ·servant [slave] to the farmers to get some of the grapes [C?the portion of the harvest to pay the rent]. But they beat him and sent him away empty-handed.

11 Then he sent another ·servant [slave]. They beat him also, and ·showed no respect for [humiliated; dishonored] him, and sent him away empty-handed.

12 So the man sent a third. The farmers wounded him and threw him out [C?the servants represent the prophets God sent to Israel].

13 The owner of the vineyard said, ‘What will I do now? I will send my son whom I love [C?representing Jesus; see 3:22]. ·Maybe [or Probably; or Surely] they will respect him.’

14 But when the farmers saw the son, they said to each other, ‘This ·son will inherit the vineyard [L?is the heir]. Let’s kill him so the inheritance will be ours.’

15 So the farmers threw the son out of the vineyard and killed him.



“What will the ·owner [lord] of the vineyard do to them?

16 He will come and ·kill [destroy] those farmers and will give the vineyard to ·other farmers [L?others; C?referring to the sinners who were responding to Jesus’ call for repentance, and eventually to the Gentiles who would be saved].”



When the people heard this ·story [parable], they said, “·Let this never happen [T?God forbid; L?May it not happen]!”



17 But Jesus looked [directly; intently] at them and said, “Then what does this Scripture passage mean:



‘The stone that the builders rejected

became the ·cornerstone [or capstone; or keystone; L?head of the corner]’? [C?This is the most important stone in the building; Jesus is the rejected stone; Ps. 118:22.]



18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken [Is. 8:14], and the person on whom it falls, that person will be crushed [cf. Dan. 2:34]!”



19 The ·teachers of the law [scribes] and the ·leading [T?chief] priests ·wanted [tried/sought] to ·arrest [seize; L?lay hands on] Jesus at once, because they knew the ·story [parable] was ·about [told against] them. But they were afraid of what the people would do.

Is It Right to Pay Taxes or Not?

Lc 20:20-26

20 So they watched Jesus and sent some spies who acted as if they were ·sincere [honest; righteous]. They wanted to trap Jesus in saying something wrong so they could hand him over to the ·authority [jurisdiction; rule] and ·power [authority] of the governor.

21 So the spies asked Jesus, “Teacher, we know that what you say and teach is ·true [right; correct]. You ·pay no attention to who people are [play no favorites; are impartial; aren’t swayed by appearances], and you always teach ·the truth [with sincerity/honesty] about God’s way.

22 Tell us, is it ·right [permissible; lawful] for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?” [C?Saying yes would anger Jews who hated Roman rule; saying no could result in being charged with insurrection.]



23 But Jesus, knowing ·they were trying to trick him [L?their craftiness/duplicity], said,

24 “Show me a ·coin [L?denarius]. Whose ·image [likeness; portrait] and ·name [inscription; title] are on it?”



They said, “Caesar’s.” [C?Ironically, the religious leaders carry coins bearing the idolatrous image of Caesar.]



25 Jesus said to them, “Then ·give [give back; T?render] to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and ·give [give back; T?render] to God the things that are God’s.”



26 So they were not able to ·trap [catch] Jesus in anything he said in the presence of the people. And being amazed at his answer, they ·became silent [kept quiet].

Jesus Accuses Some Leaders

Lc 20:45-47

45 While all the people were listening, Jesus said to his ·followers [disciples],

46 “Beware of the ·teachers of the law [scribes]. They like to walk around wearing ·fancy clothes [or flowing robes], and they love for people to greet them with respect in the marketplaces. They love to have the most important seats in the synagogues [11:43] and [the place of highest honor] at ·feasts [banquets].

47 But they ·cheat widows and steal their houses [L?devour widows’ homes] and ·then try to make themselves look good by saying [L?with false motives pray] long prayers. They will receive a greater ·punishment [condemnation].”

True Giving

Lc 21:1-4

As Jesus looked up, he saw some rich people putting their gifts into the Temple ·money box [or treasury; C?one of thirteen trumpet-shaped receptacles used to collect offerings].

2 Then he saw a poor widow putting two small copper coins [C?Greek: lepta; worth only 1/128 of a denarius, the daily wage of a worker] into the box.

3 He said, “I tell you the truth, this poor widow gave more than all those rich people.

4 [L?For] They gave ·only what they did not need [out of their surplus/abundance]. ·This woman is very poor, but she gave [L?But she, out of her poverty, gave] all she had to live on.”

Be Ready All the Time

Lc 21:34-37

34 “·Be careful [Watch yourselves] not to ·spend your time [or become dulled by; L?let your hearts be weighed down by] ·feasting [carousing; debauchery], ·drinking [drunkenness], or worrying about worldly things. If you do, that day might come on you suddenly,

35 ·like a trap. For it will come upon all people who live on the earth. [or Like a trap, it will come upon all people who live on the earth.]

36 So be ·ready [alert; watching] all the time. Pray that you will be strong enough to escape all these things that ·will [are about to] happen and that you will be able to stand before the Son of Man.”



37 During the day, Jesus taught the people in the Temple, and at night he went out of the city and stayed on the Mount of Olives. 38 Every morning all the people got up early to go to the Temple to listen to him.

Love is the Greatest Gift

1Co 13:1-3

1. I may speak in ·different languages [L tongues; 12:10, 29, 30] of people or even angels. But if I do not have love, I am only a ·noisy [resounding] ·bell [gong] or a ·crashing [clanging] cymbal.

2. I may have the gift of prophecy. I may understand all ·the secret thing of God [L mysteries] and all knowledge, and I may have faith so great I can move mountains. But even with all these thingd, if I do not have love, then I am nothing.

3. I may give away everything I have, and I may give my body ·as an offering to be burned [L to be burned].[a.] But I gain nothing if I do not have love.



Footnote:

a. 1 Corinthians 13:3 give… burned Other Greek copies read “hand over myu body in order that I may brag.”

En aucune façon je déclare avoir l'entière vérité donc les sections et pages évoluent avec le temps et mes études biblique (Matthieu 7:7-8) en priant toujours Jéhovah par l'entremise de notre Roi Jésus pour que l'Esprit Saint me guider. Et bien sur si ça peut m'aider ça peut aussi vous aider. smiley for :D
