Luc 5
Louis Segond
5 Comme Jésus se trouvait auprès du lac de Génésareth, et que la foule se pressait autour de lui pour entendre la parole de Dieu,
2 il vit au bord du lac deux barques, d'où les pêcheurs étaient descendus pour laver leurs filets.
3 Il monta dans l'une de ces barques, qui était à Simon, et il le pria de s'éloigner un peu de terre. Puis il s'assit, et de la barque il enseignait la foule.
4 Lorsqu'il eut cessé de parler, il dit à Simon: Avance en pleine eau, et jetez vos filets pour pêcher.
5 Simon lui répondit: Maître, nous avons travaillé toute la nuit sans rien prendre; mais, sur ta parole, je jetterai le filet.
6 L'ayant jeté, ils prirent une grande quantité de poissons, et leur filet se rompait.
7 Ils firent signe à leurs compagnons qui étaient dans l'autre barque de venir les aider. Ils vinrent et ils remplirent les deux barques, au point qu'elles enfonçaient.
8 Quand il vit cela, Simon Pierre tomba aux genoux de Jésus, et dit: Seigneur, retire-toi de moi, parce que je suis un homme pécheur.
9 Car l'épouvante l'avait saisi, lui et tous ceux qui étaient avec lui, à cause de la pêche qu'ils avaient faite.
10 Il en était de même de Jacques et de Jean, fils de Zébédée, les associés de Simon. Alors Jésus dit à Simon: Ne crains point; désormais tu seras pêcheur d'hommes.
11 Et, ayant ramené les barques à terre, ils laissèrent tout, et le suivirent.
12 Jésus était dans une des villes; et voici, un homme couvert de lèpre, l'ayant vu, tomba sur sa face, et lui fit cette prière: Seigneur, si tu le veux, tu peux me rendre pur.
13 Jésus étendit la main, le toucha, et dit: Je le veux, sois pur. Aussitôt la lèpre le quitta.
14 Puis il lui ordonna de n'en parler à personne. Mais, dit-il, va te montrer au sacrificateur, et offre pour ta purification ce que Moïse a prescrit, afin que cela leur serve de témoignage.
15 Sa renommée se répandait de plus en plus, et les gens venaient en foule pour l'entendre et pour être guéris de leurs maladies.
16 Et lui, il se retirait dans les déserts, et priait.
17 Un jour Jésus enseignait. Des pharisiens et des docteurs de la loi étaient là assis, venus de tous les villages de la Galilée, de la Judée et de Jérusalem; et la puissance du Seigneur se manifestait par des guérisons.
18 Et voici, des gens, portant sur un lit un homme qui était paralytique, cherchaient à le faire entrer et à le placer sous ses regards.
19 Comme ils ne savaient par où l'introduire, à cause de la foule, ils montèrent sur le toit, et ils le descendirent par une ouverture, avec son lit, au milieu de l'assemblée, devant Jésus.
20 Voyant leur foi, Jésus dit: Homme, tes péchés te sont pardonnés.
21 Les scribes et les pharisiens se mirent à raisonner et à dire: Qui est celui-ci, qui profère des blasphèmes? Qui peut pardonner les péchés, si ce n'est Dieu seul?
22 Jésus, connaissant leurs pensées, prit la parole et leur dit: Quelles pensées avez-vous dans vos coeurs?
23 Lequel est le plus aisé, de dire: Tes péchés te sont pardonnés, ou de dire: Lève-toi, et marche?
24 Or, afin que vous sachiez que le Fils de l'homme a sur la terre le pouvoir de pardonner les péchés: Je te l'ordonne, dit-il au paralytique, lève-toi, prends ton lit, et va dans ta maison.
25 Et, à l'instant, il se leva en leur présence, prit le lit sur lequel il était couché, et s'en alla dans sa maison, glorifiant Dieu.
26 Tous étaient dans l'étonnement, et glorifiaient Dieu; remplis de crainte, ils disaient: Nous avons vu aujourd'hui des choses étranges.
27 Après cela, Jésus sortit, et il vit un publicain, nommé Lévi, assis au lieu des péages. Il lui dit: Suis-moi.
28 Et, laissant tout, il se leva, et le suivit.
29 Lévi lui donna un grand festin dans sa maison, et beaucoup de publicains et d'autres personnes étaient à table avec eux.
30 Les pharisiens et les scribes murmurèrent, et dirent à ses disciples: Pourquoi mangez-vous et buvez-vous avec les publicains et les gens de mauvaise vie?
31 Jésus, prenant la parole, leur dit: Ce ne sont pas ceux qui se portent bien qui ont besoin de médecin, mais les malades.
32 Je ne suis pas venu appeler à la repentance des justes, mais des pécheurs.
33 Ils lui dirent: Les disciples de Jean, comme ceux des pharisiens, jeûnent fréquemment et font des prières, tandis que les tiens mangent et boivent.
34 Il leur répondit: Pouvez-vous faire jeûner les amis de l'époux pendant que l'époux est avec eux?
35 Les jours viendront où l'époux leur sera enlevé, alors ils jeûneront en ces jours-là.
36 Il leur dit aussi une parabole: Personne ne déchire d'un habit neuf un morceau pour le mettre à un vieil habit; car, il déchire l'habit neuf, et le morceau qu'il en a pris n'est pas assorti au vieux.
37 Et personne ne met du vin nouveau dans de vieilles outres; autrement, le vin nouveau fait rompre les outres, il se répand, et les outres sont perdues;
38 mais il faut mettre le vin nouveau dans des outres neuves.
39 Et personne, après avoir bu du vin vieux, ne veut du nouveau, car il dit: Le vieux est bon.
Luke 5
New Matthew Bible
Christ preaches in the boat. The disciples leave everything and follow him. He cleanses the leper, heals the paralytic, calls Matthew, the customs officer, and eats with open sinners.
5 It came to pass, as the people pressed in upon him to hear the word of God, that he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret 2 and saw two boats standing by the lake side. But the fishermen were gone out of them and were washing their nets. 3 And he entered into one of the boats, which belonged to Simon, and asked him to thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the people out of the boat.
4 When he had left speaking, he said to Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let slip your nets to make a catch. 5 And Simon answered and said to him, Master, we have laboured all night and have caught nothing. But at your word, I will loose forth the net.
6 And when they had so done, they netted a great multitude of fishes. And their net was tearing, 7 but they made signs to their fellow fishermen who were in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they were sinking back.
8 When Simon Peter saw this, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, Lord, go from me, for I am a sinful man. 9 For he was utterly astonished, as was everyone with him, at the haul of fish that they took; 10 and so also were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not; from henceforth you shall catch men.
11 And they brought the boats to land, and left everything, and followed him.
12 And it happened, as he was in a certain town, behold, there was a man full of leprosy. And when he saw Jesus, he fell on his face and besought him, saying, Lord, if you will, you can make me clean. 13 And Jesus stretched forth his hand and touched him, saying, I will; be clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him. 14 And Jesus told him not to tell anyone, but to go and show himself to the priest, and to make an offering for his cleansing, as Moses had commanded, for a witness to them. 15 But word of him went abroad all the more, and crowds of people came together to hear him and to be healed by him of their infirmities.
16 And he kept himself apart in the remote places, and gave himself to prayer.
17 And it happened on a certain day that he was teaching, and there sat the Pharisees and doctors of the law, who had come out of all the towns of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was to heal the people. 18 And behold, some men brought a man lying in his bed, who was taken with paralysis, and were trying to find a way to bring him in and to lay him before Jesus. 19 And when they could not find a way to bring him in, because of the press of people, they went up on the top of the house and let him down through the tiling, bed and all, in the midst before Jesus. 20 When he saw their faith, he said to him, Man, your sins are forgiven you. 21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to think, saying, What fellow is this, who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins, but God only?
22 When Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answered and said to them, What are you thinking in your hearts? 23 Which is easier to say: Your sins are forgiven you, or to say, Rise and walk? 24 But so that you may know that the Son of man has power to forgive sins on earth – He said to the paralytic, I say to you, arise; take up your bed and go home to your house.
25 And immediately he rose up before them, took up the bed he laid on, and departed to his own house, praising God.
26 And they were all amazed, and they lauded God and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things today.
27 And after that, Jesus went out and saw a publican named Levi sitting at the receipt of custom, and said to him, Follow me. 28 And he left all, rose up, and followed him. 29 And that same Levi gave for Jesus a great feast at home in his own house. And there was a great company of publicans and of others that sat at food with him.
30 And the scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do you eat and drink with publicans and sinners? 31 Jesus answered and said to them, The whole have no need for the physician, but the sick do. 32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.
33 Then they said to him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and pray, and the disciples of the Pharisees also, but yours eat and drink?
34 And he said to them, Can you make the children of the wedding fast while the bridegroom is present with them? 35 The days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them. Then they will fast, in those days.
36 Then he spoke to them in a similitude: No one patches a piece of a new garment into an old vesture, because if he does, then he will have cut up the new, and the piece that was taken out of the new does not agree with the old. 37 Also, no one pours new wine into old wineskins, because if he does, the new wine bursts the vessels and runs out, and the vessels are destroyed. 38 But new wine must be poured into new vessels, and both are preserved. 39 Also, no one who drinks old wine can straightaway abide the new, for he says the old is pleasanter.
Luke 5
New International Version
Jesus Calls His First Disciples(A)
5 One day as Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret,[a] the people were crowding around him and listening to the word of God.(B) 2 He saw at the water’s edge two boats, left there by the fishermen, who were washing their nets. 3 He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a little from shore. Then he sat down and taught the people from the boat.(C)
4 When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.”(D)
5 Simon answered, “Master,(E) we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything.(F) But because you say so, I will let down the nets.”
6 When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break.(G) 7 So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.
8 When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees and said, “Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!”(H) 9 For he and all his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken, 10 and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon’s partners.
Then Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid;(I) from now on you will fish for people.” 11 So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.(J)
Jesus Heals a Man With Leprosy(K)
12 While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy.[b](L) When he saw Jesus, he fell with his face to the ground and begged him, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”
13 Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.
14 Then Jesus ordered him, “Don’t tell anyone,(M) but go, show yourself to the priest and offer the sacrifices that Moses commanded(N) for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”
15 Yet the news about him spread all the more,(O) so that crowds of people came to hear him and to be healed of their sicknesses. 16 But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.(P)
Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralyzed Man(Q)
17 One day Jesus was teaching, and Pharisees and teachers of the law(R) were sitting there. They had come from every village of Galilee and from Judea and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was with Jesus to heal the sick.(S) 18 Some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat and tried to take him into the house to lay him before Jesus. 19 When they could not find a way to do this because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus.
20 When Jesus saw their faith, he said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”(T)
21 The Pharisees and the teachers of the law began thinking to themselves, “Who is this fellow who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”(U)
22 Jesus knew what they were thinking and asked, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts? 23 Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? 24 But I want you to know that the Son of Man(V) has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the paralyzed man, “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.” 25 Immediately he stood up in front of them, took what he had been lying on and went home praising God. 26 Everyone was amazed and gave praise to God.(W) They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”
Jesus Calls Levi and Eats With Sinners(X)
27 After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector by the name of Levi sitting at his tax booth. “Follow me,”(Y) Jesus said to him, 28 and Levi got up, left everything and followed him.(Z)
29 Then Levi held a great banquet for Jesus at his house, and a large crowd of tax collectors(AA) and others were eating with them. 30 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law who belonged to their sect(AB) complained to his disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”(AC)
31 Jesus answered them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. 32 I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”(AD)
Jesus Questioned About Fasting(AE)
33 They said to him, “John’s disciples(AF) often fast and pray, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees, but yours go on eating and drinking.”
34 Jesus answered, “Can you make the friends of the bridegroom(AG) fast while he is with them? 35 But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them;(AH) in those days they will fast.”
36 He told them this parable: “No one tears a piece out of a new garment to patch an old one. Otherwise, they will have torn the new garment, and the patch from the new will not match the old. 37 And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. 38 No, new wine must be poured into new wineskins. 39 And no one after drinking old wine wants the new, for they say, ‘The old is better.’”
