Acts 13
1 Now there were at Antioch, in the church that was [there], prophets and teachers, Barnabas, and Symeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen the foster-brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
Alò te gen nan Antioche, nan legliz ki te la a, pwofèt ak mèt yo; Barnabas ak Simon ki te rele Niger, ak Lucius de Cyrène, ak Manaen ki te grandi avèk Hérode, tetrak la (youn nan kat wa yo), ak Saul.
2 And as they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.
Pandan yo t ap fè sèvis pou Senyè a, e t ap jene, Lespri Sen an te di: “Mete apa pou Mwen Barnabas ak Saul, pou travay ke mwen rele yo a.”
3 Then, when they had fasted and prayed and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.
Alò, lè yo te fin fè jèn nan ak lapriyè, yo te poze men sou yo e te voye yo ale.
4 So they, being sent forth by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
Konsa, ranvoye pa Lespri Sen an, yo te desann Séleucie. Depi la yo te pran yon bato pou Chypre.
5 And when they were at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John as their attendant.
Lè yo te rive Salamine, yo te kòmanse pwoklame pawòl Bondye a nan sinagòg Jwif yo. Anplis Jean te la pou ede yo.
6 And when they had gone through the whole island unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-Jesus;
Lè yo te fin travèse tout lil la, jis rive nan Paphos yo twouve yon sèten majisyen Jwif, yon fo pwofèt ke yo te rele Bar-Jésus
7 who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of understanding. The same called unto him Barnabas and Saul, and sought to hear the word of God.
ki te avèk pwokonsil la, Sergius Paulus, yon nonm byen entèlijan. Mesye sa te rele Barnabas avèk Saul pou vini pou l ta kapab tande pawòl Bondye a.
8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn aside the proconsul from the faith.
Men majisyen an, Elymas (se konsa non li tradwi) t ap opoze yo, e t ap chache detounen pwokonsil la kont lafwa a.
9 But Saul, who is also [called] Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, fastened his eyes on him,
Men Saul, ki te osi konnen kon Paul, ranpli avèk Lespri Sen an, te fikse zye li sou li.
10 and said, O full of all guile and all villany, thou son of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
Li te di: “Ou menm ki ranpli ak desepsyon ak fwod, ou menm fis a dyab la, ou menm lènmi a tout ladwati, èske ou p ap janm sispann fè kwochi chemen dwat a Senyè a?
11 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
Koulye a, gade byen men Bondye sou ou, ou va vin avèg e ou p ap wè solèy la pandan yon tan.” Imedyatman, yon brouya avèk yon fènwa te tonbe sou li, e li te ale toupatou pou chache moun pou ta mennen l pa lamen.
12 Then the proconsul, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the teaching of the Lord.
Answit, pwokonsil la te vin kwè lè li te wè sa ki te rive a, byen etone de doktrin Senyè a.
13 Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos, and came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departed from them and returned to Jerusalem.
Alò, Paul avèk konpanyon li yo te monte sou lanmè a soti Paphos. Yo te rive nan vil Perge nan Pamphylie. Jean te kite yo la pou retounen Jérusalem.
14 But they, passing through from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia; and they went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.
Men kontinye soti Perge yo te rive Antioche Pisidie a. Nan jou Saba a yo te antre nan sinagòg la, e yo te chita.
15 And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.
Aprè Lalwa ak Pwofèt yo te fin li, ofisye yo te voye kote yo e te di: “Frè yo, si nou gen nenpòt pawòl pou egzòte pèp la, pale.”
16 And Paul stood up, and beckoning with the hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, hearken:
Paul te kanpe. Li te fè sinyal avèk men l, e te di: “Lezòm Israël yo, ak nou menm ki krent Bondye, koute:
17 The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they sojourned in the land of Egypt, and with a high arm led he them forth out of it.
Bondye a pèp Israël sa a te chwazi zansèt nou yo, e te fè pèp la onore pandan sejou yo nan peyi Égypte. Epi avèk yon bra leve Li te mennen yo sòti ladann.
18 And for about the time of forty years as a nursing-father bare he them in the wilderness.
Pandan anviwon yon tan de karant ane, konsa, li te sipòte yo nan dezè a.
19 And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave [them] their land for an inheritance, for about four hundred and fifty years:
“Lè L te fin detwi sèt nasyon nan tè Canaan an, Li te divize tè pa yo a kòm eritaj. Sa te pran anviwon kat san senkant ane.
20 and after these things he gave [them] judges until Samuel the prophet.
Apre bagay sa yo, Li te bay yo jij yo jiska Samuel, pwofèt la.
21 And afterward they asked for a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for the space of forty years.
“Yo te mande pou yon wa, epi Bondye te bay yo Saul, Fis a Kis la, yon nonm nan tribi Benjamin an pou karant ane.
22 And when he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king; to whom also he bare witness and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my heart, who shall do all my will.
“Lè L te fin retire li, Li te fè leve David pou l ta kapab wa sou yo. Selon Li, te temwaye e te di: ‘Mwen twouve David, fis a Jessé a, yon nonm selon pwòp kè Mwen ki va fè tout volonte M’.
23 Of this man’s seed hath God according to promise brought unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus;
“Soti nan desandan a nonm sila a, selon pwomès la, Bondye te fè vini a Israël yon Sovè, Jésus.
24 when John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
“Avan Li te vini Jean te preche yon batèm repantans pou tout pèp Israël la.
25 And as John was fulfilling his course, he said, What suppose ye that I am? I am not [he]. But behold, there cometh one after me the shoes of whose feet I am not worthy to unloose.
Alò, pandan Jean t ap konplete pakou li, li te kontinye ap mande: ‘Kisa nou sipoze ke mwen ye? Mwen se pa Li menm nan. Men gade byen, youn ap vini aprè mwen e sapat a pye li, mwen pa menm dign pou delase.
26 Brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and those among you that fear God, to us is the word of this salvation sent forth.
“Frè yo, Fis a fanmi Abraham yo, sila pami nou ki krent Bondye yo, a nou mesaj sali sila a voye.
27 For they that dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath, fulfilled [them] by condemning [him].
Paske sila ki rete Jérusalem yo, avèk gouvernè pa yo, pa t rekonèt ni Li menm, ni pawòl a pwofèt yo, malgre, yo konn li toupatou chak Saba a. Men yo te akonpli bagay sa yo lè yo te kondane Li.
28 And though they found no cause of death [in him], yet asked they of Pilate that he should be slain.
Malgre yo pa t twouve okenn choz ki merite lanmò, yo te mande Pilate pou li ta fè l mouri.
29 And when they had fulfilled all things that were written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a tomb.
Epi lè yo te fin akonpli tout sa ki te ekri konsènan Li yo, yo te retire Li sou kwa a, e yo te mete l nan yon tonm.
30 But God raised him from the dead:
“Men Bondye te leve Li soti nan lanmò.
31 and he was seen for many days of them that came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are now his witnesses unto the people.
Konsa, pandan anpil jou, sa yo ki te sòti Galilée pou monte Jérusalem avè L yo, te wè li, menm sila yo ki koulye a se temwen Li a pèp la.
32 And we bring you good tidings of the promise made unto the fathers,
“Konsa, nou preche a nou menm bòn nouvèl a pwomès ki te fèt a zansèt nou yo,
33 that God hath fulfilled the same unto our children, in that he raised up Jesus; as also it is written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
ke Bondye te akonpli pou zanfan pa nou yo, lè l te resisite Jésus a, menm jan ke sa osi ekri nan dezyèm Sòm nan: ‘Ou se Fis Mwen; jodi a Mwen fè Ou.’
34 And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he hath spoken on this wise, I will give you the holy and sure [blessings] of David.
“Selon reyalite ke Li te leve soti nan lanmò, pou l pa ankò retounen nan pouriti, Li te pale konsa: ‘Mwen va bannou benediksyon a David ki sen e byen asire yo.’
35 Because he saith also in another [psalm], Thou wilt not give thy Holy One to see corruption.
“Konsa, Li pale osi nan yon lòt Sòm ke ‘Ou p ap kite pa W, Sila Ki Sen an, sibi pouriti.’
36 For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:
“Paske David, apre li te sèvi plan Bondye a nan jenerasyon pa l la, te dòmi. Li te vin plase pami zansèt li yo, e li te sibi dekonpozisyon.
37 but he whom God raised up saw no corruption.
Men Sila ke Bondye te fè leve a, pa t sibi dekonpozisyon menm.
38 Be it known unto you therefore, brethren, that through this man is proclaimed unto you remission of sins:
“Konsa, kite sa vin konnen a nou menm, frè yo, ke atravè Li menm, padon pou peche yo pwoklame a nou menm.
39 and by him every one that believeth is justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
Selon Li menm, tout moun ki kwè yo, vin lib de tout bagay ke nou pa t kapab libere pa Lalwa Moïse la.
40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon [you] which is spoken in the prophets:
“Konsa, fè atansyon, pou sa ki te pale nan pwofèt yo pa vini sou nou:
41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish; For I work a work in your days, A work which ye shall in no wise believe, if one declare it unto you.
‘Gade byen mokè yo; Vin etone, e peri! Paske M ap acheve yon zèv nan jou nou yo, yon zèv ke nou p ap janm kwè, menmsi yon moun ta eksplike nou li.’”
42 And as they went out, they besought that these words might be spoken to them the next sabbath.
Pandan Paul ak Barnabas t ap sòti, pèp la te kontinye mande pou yo ta kapab pale yo bagay sa yo ankò nan pwochen Saba a.
43 Now when the synagogue broke up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, urged them to continue in the grace of God.
Alò, lè sinagòg la te lage, anpil nan Jwif yo ak pèp etranje ki te vin krent Bondye yo, te swiv Paul ak Barnabas. Yo te pale avèk yo pou ankouraje yo kontinye nan gras Bondye a.
44 And the next sabbath almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of God.
Nan pwochen Saba a, prèske tout vil la te vin rasanble pou koute pawòl Bondye a.
45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the things which were spoken by Paul, and blasphemed.
Men lè Jwif yo te wè foul la, yo te ranpli avèk jalouzi, e yo te kòmanse pale kont bagay ke Paul te pale yo, e t ap fè blasfèm.
46 And Paul and Barnabas spake out boldly, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you. Seeing ye thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
Paul ak Barnabas te pale avèk gwo kouraj. Yo te di: “Li te nesesè pou pawòl Bondye a ta pale a nou menm avan. Men akoz ke nou refize l, e jije pwòp tèt nou endign pou lavi etènèl la, gade byen n ap vire bò kote pèp etranje yo. (aiōnios g166)
47 For so hath the Lord commanded us, [saying], I have set thee for a light of the Gentiles, That thou shouldest be for salvation unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Paske konsa Senyè a te kòmande nou: ‘Mwen plase nou kòm yon limyè pou pèp etranje yo, pou nou ta pote delivrans jiska dènye ekstremite tè a.’”
48 And as the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of God: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed. (aiōnios g166)
Lè pèp etranje yo te tande sa, yo te kòmanse rejwi e t ap bay glwa a pawòl Bondye a. Konsa, tout sila ki te nome pou lavi etènèl yo te kwè. (aiōnios g166)
49 And the word of the Lord was spread abroad throughout all the region.
Pawòl Senyè a te gaye nan tout rejyon an.
50 But the Jews urged on the devout women of honorable estate, and the chief men of the city, and stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and cast them out of their borders.
Men Jwif yo te chofe fanm fidèl yo, ak chèf ki t ap dirije vil yo, pou fòmante yon pèsekisyon kont Paul ak Barnabas, e te chase yo deyò teritwa yo.
51 But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came unto Iconium.
Men yo te souke pousyè a, fè l sòti nan pye yo, kòm yon sign kont yo, e yo te ale Icone.
52 And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
Epi disip yo te kontinye ranpli avèk jwa, e avèk Lespri Sen an.
