se sustenter

Ce n'est pas ma faute, mais je pense qu'il est important que le personnel puisse se sustenter avant de revenir à 21 heures.
It is not my fault, but I do think it is important that the staff get their food before they come back at 21:00.
Ainsi, comme le corps a besoin d'aliments pour se sustenter, le moi éternel a besoin d'une nourriture transsubstantielle, sans laquelle il dépérit et tombe malade.
And, just as the body requires nourishment to sustain itself, our eternal part requires transubstantial nourishment, without which it withers and falls ill.
La seule exception possible à cette conclusion serait d’attribuer une faculté mentale à l’étonnant phénomène d’un univers qui parait se sustenter lui-même – mais ceci est une affaire de philosophie plutôt que d’expérience actuelle.
The only possible exception to such a conclusion would be the implication of mindedness in the amazing phenomenon of an apparently self-maintaining universe—but that is a matter of philosophy rather than one of actual experience.
