Apocalypse 7

JERUSALEM	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Après quoi je vis quatre Anges, debout aux quatre coins de la terre, retenant les quatre vents dela terre pour qu'il ne soufflât point de vent, ni sur la terre, ni sur la mer, ni sur aucun arbre.	1 And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
2 Puis je vis un autre Ange monter de l'orient, portant le sceau du Dieu vivant; il cria d'une voixpuissante aux quatre Anges auxquels il fut donné de malmener la terre et la mer:	2 And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
3 "Attendez, pour malmener la terre et la mer et les arbres, que nous ayons marqué au front lesserviteurs de notre Dieu."	3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
4 Et j'appris combien furent alors marqués du sceau: 144.000 de toutes les tribus des fils d'Israël.	4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
5 De la tribu de Juda, 12.000 furent marqués; de la tribu de Ruben, 12.000; de la tribu de Gad,12.000;	5 Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.
6 de la tribu d'Aser, 12.000; de la tribu de Nephtali, 12.000; de la tribu de Manassé, 12.000;	6 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand.
7 de la tribu de Siméon, 12.000; de la tribu de Lévi, 12.000; de la tribu d'Issachar, 12.000;	7 Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand.
8 de la tribu de Zabulon, 12.000; de la tribu de Joseph, 12.000; de la tribu de Benjamin, 12.000furent marqués.	8 Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.
9 Après quoi, voici qu'apparut à mes yeux une foule immense, que nul ne pouvait dénombrer, detoute nation, race, peuple et langue; debout devant le trône et devant l'Agneau, vêtus de robes blanches, despalmes à la main,	9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;
10 ils crient d'une voix puissante: "Le salut à notre Dieu, qui siège sur le trône, ainsi qu'àl'Agneau!"	10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.
11 Et tous les Anges en cercle autour du trône, des Vieillards et des quatre Vivants, seprosternèrent devant le trône, la face contre terre, pour adorer Dieu;	11 And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,
12 ils disaient: "Amen! Louange, gloire, sagesse, action de grâces, honneur, puissance et force ànotre Dieu pour les siècles des siècles! Amen!"	12 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.
13 L'un des Vieillards prit alors la parole et me dit: "Ces gens vêtus de robes blanches, qui sont-ilset d'où viennent-ils?"	13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?
14 Et moi de répondre: "Monseigneur, c'est toi qui le sais." Il reprit: "Ce sont ceux qui viennentde la grande épreuve: ils ont lavé leurs robes et les ont blanchies dans le sang de l'Agneau.	14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15 C'est pourquoi ils sont devant le trône de Dieu, le servant jour et nuit dans son temple; et Celuiqui siège sur le trône étendra sur eux sa tente.	15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.
16 Jamais plus ils ne souffriront de la faim ni de la soif; jamais plus ils ne seront accablés ni par lesoleil, ni par aucun vent brûlant.	16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.
17 Car l'Agneau qui se tient au milieu du trône sera leur pasteur et les conduira aux sources deseaux de la vie. Et Dieu essuiera toute larme de leurs yeux."	17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
