French Jn 8:1-11

John 7:53-8:11 - French/English Parallel Text
...Et chacun s'en retourna dans sa maison. Jésus se rendit à la montagne des oliviers. Mais, dès le matin, il alla de nouveau dans le temple, et tout le peuple vint à lui. S'étant assis, il les enseignait. Alors les scribes et les pharisiens amenèrent une femme surprise en adultère; et, la plaçant au milieu du peuple, ils dirent à Jésus: Maître, cette femme a été surprise en flagrant délit d'adultère. Moïse, dans la loi, nous a ordonné de lapider de telles femmes: toi donc, que dis-tu? Ils disaient cela pour l'éprouver, afin de pouvoir l'accuser. Mais Jésus, s'étant baissé, écrivait avec le doigt sur la terre.	...And each person went to his own home, but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. And at Dawn Jesus came again into the temple, and all the people were coming to Him; and having sat down, He was teaching them. And the scribes and Pharisees bring to Him a woman having been *taken in an adultery;* And having set her in the midst, They say to Him, "Teacher! This woman was taken in the very act, - committing adultery; and in the Law Moses commanded us that such be stoned to death; You therefore, what do you say?" And this they said testing Him, that they might have something to accuse Him of.' But Jesus bent down and with the finger wrote upon the earth, ignoring them.
Comme ils continuaient à l'interroger, il se releva et leur dit: Que celui de vous qui est sans péché jette le premier la pierre contre elle. Et s'étant de nouveau baissé, il écrivait sur la terre. Quand ils entendirent cela, accusés par leur conscience, ils se retirèrent un à un, depuis les plus âgés jusqu'aux derniers; et Jésus resta seul avec la femme qui était là au milieu. Alors s'étant relevé, et ne voyant plus que la femme, Jésus lui dit: Femme, où sont ceux qui t'accusaient? Personne ne t'a-t-il condamnée? Elle répondit: Non, Seigneur. Et Jésus lui dit: Je ne te condamne pas non plus: va, et ne pèche plus.	'And when they continued pressing Him, having bent back, He said to them, "The sinless one among you - Let him first cast a stone upon her!" And again having leaned down, He was writing in the earth: and they, having understood, being convicted by conscience, went forth one by one, beginning from the elders, even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst of the crowd. But Jesus, having bent Himself back, and seeing no one but the woman, said to her, " ...where are those - your accusers? Did no one condemn you?" And she said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I judge you: Go, and sin no more." (John 7:53-8:11)

John 7:53-8:11 - French/English Parallel Text

...Et chacun s'en retourna dans sa maison.
Jésus se rendit à la montagne des oliviers.

Mais, dès le matin, il alla de nouveau dans le temple, et tout le peuple vint à lui. S'étant assis, il les enseignait.

Alors les scribes et les pharisiens amenèrent une femme surprise en adultère;

et, la plaçant au milieu du peuple, ils dirent à Jésus:
Maître, cette femme a été surprise en flagrant délit d'adultère. Moïse, dans la loi, nous a ordonné de lapider de telles femmes: toi donc, que dis-tu?

Ils disaient cela pour l'éprouver, afin de pouvoir l'accuser.

Mais Jésus, s'étant baissé, écrivait avec le doigt sur la terre.

...And each person went to his own home, but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

And at Dawn Jesus came again into the temple, and all the people were coming to Him; and having sat down, He was teaching them.

And the scribes and Pharisees bring to Him a woman having been taken in an adultery;

And having set her in the midst,
They say to Him,
"Teacher! This woman was taken in the very act, - committing adultery;
and in the Law Moses commanded us that such be stoned to death;
You therefore, what do you say?"

And this they said testing Him, that they might have something to accuse Him of.'

But Jesus bent down and with the finger wrote upon the earth, ignoring them.

Comme ils continuaient à l'interroger,
il se releva et leur dit:
Que celui de vous qui est sans péché jette le premier la pierre contre elle.

Et s'étant de nouveau baissé, il écrivait sur la terre.

Quand ils entendirent cela, accusés par leur conscience, ils se retirèrent un à un, depuis les plus âgés jusqu'aux derniers;

et Jésus resta seul avec la femme qui était là au milieu.

Alors s'étant relevé, et ne voyant plus que la femme, Jésus lui dit: Femme, où sont ceux qui t'accusaient? Personne ne t'a-t-il condamnée?

Elle répondit:
Non, Seigneur.

Et Jésus lui dit: Je ne te condamne pas non plus: va, et ne pèche plus.

'And when they continued pressing Him, having bent back, He said to them,
"The sinless one among you -
Let him first cast a stone upon her!"

And again having leaned down, He was writing in the earth:

and they, having understood, being convicted by conscience, went forth one by one, beginning from the elders, even to the last.

And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst of the crowd.

But Jesus, having bent Himself back, and seeing no one but the woman, said to her,
" ...where are those - your accusers? Did no one condemn you?"
And she said,
"No one, Lord."
And Jesus said to her,
"Neither do I judge you: Go, and sin no more."
