Luke 16
1 And he sayde also vnto his disciples, There was a certaine riche man, which had a stewarde, and he was accused vnto him, that he wasted his goods.
Alò, Li t ap osi di a disip yo: “Te gen yon sèten mesye rich ki te gen yon jeran. Konsa, yon rapò te vin rive ke li t apgaspiye byen li yo.
2 And hee called him, and saide vnto him, Howe is it that I heare this of thee? Giue an accounts of thy stewardship: for thou maiest be no longer steward.
Li te rele li, e te di li: ‘Kisa ke m tande sou ou la a? Bay yon kontwòl sou jerans ou, paske ou pa kab jeran ankò.’
3 Then the stewarde saide within himselfe, What shall I doe? for my master taketh away from me the stewardship. I cannot digge, and to begge I am ashamed.
“Jeran an te di a pwòp tèt li: ‘Kisa m ta fè, paske mèt mwen ap retire jerans lan nan men mwen? Mwen pa gen ase fòs pou m fouye, e mwen wont mande lacharite.
4 I knowe what I will doe, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receiue mee into their houses.
Mwen konnen kisa mwen va fè, pou lè yo retire m nan jerans lan, pou moun yo kab resevwa m lakay pa yo a.’
5 Then called he vnto him euery one of his masters detters, and said vnto the first, Howe much owest thou vnto my master?
“Konsa, li te rele chak moun ki te dwe mèt li a. Li te kòmanse di a premye a: ‘Konbyen ou dwe mèt mwen an?’
6 And he said, An hudreth measures of oyle. And he saide to him, Take thy writing, and sitte downe quickely, and write fiftie.
“Li te di: ‘San mezi lwil’. E li te di li: ‘Pran nòt ou e chita byen vit pou ekri senkant.’
7 Then said he to another, How much owest thou? And hee sayde, An hundreth measures of wheate. Then he saide to him, Take thy writing, and write foure score.
“Answit, li te di a yon lòt: ‘Epi konbyen ou dwe? “Li te reponn: ‘San mezi ble.’ E li te di li: ‘Pran nòt ou pou ekri katreven.’
8 And the Lord commended the vniust stewarde, because he had done wisely. Wherefore the children of this worlde are in their generation wiser then the children of light. (aiōn g165)
“Konsa, mèt la te fè konpliman a jeran enjis la, paske li te aji avèk yon koken sajès. Paske fis a laj sila yo pi koken nan relasyon a moun parèy yo pasefis a limyè yo. (aiōn g165)
9 And I say vnto you, Make you friends with the riches of iniquitie, that when ye shall want, they may receiue you into euerlasting habitations. (aiōnios g166)
“Mwen di nou: “Fè zanmi pou tèt nou pa mwayen arichès enjis yo; pou lè l echwe, yo kapab resevwa nou nan kay ki etènèl yo. (aiōnios g166)
10 He that is faithfull in the least, hee is also faithful in much: and he that is vniust in the least, is vniust also in much.
“Sila a ki fidèl nan yon ti bagay piti, ap fidèl osi nan bagay ki gran. E sila ki enjis nan ti bagay piti, ap enjis osi nan bagay ki gran.
11 If then ye haue not ben faithful in the wicked riches, who wil trust you in the true treasure?
“Donk, si nou pa fidèl nan sèvisrichès enjis yo, kilès ki va konfye nou vrè richès yo.
12 And if ye haue not bene faithfull in another mans goods, who shall giue you that which is yours?
Epi si nou pa fidèl nan sèvis ak sa ki pou yon lòt, kilès ki va bannou sa ki pou nou?
13 No seruaunt can serue two masters: for either he shall hate the one, and loue the other: or els he shall leane to the one, and despise the other. Yee can not serue God and riches.
“Okenn sèvitè pa kapab sèvi de mèt; paske swa l ap rayi youn, e renmen lòt la, oswa l ap kenbe a youn e meprize lòt la. Nou pa kapab sèvi Bondye, ak richès yo.”
14 All these thinges heard the Pharises also which were couetous, and they scoffed at him.
Alò, Farizyen yo ki te renmen lajan anpil t ap koute tout bagay sa yo, e yo t ap moke L.
15 Then he sayde vnto them, Yee are they, which iustifie your selues before men: but God knoweth your heartes: for that which is highly esteemed among men, is abomination in the sight of God.
Li te di yo: “Nou menm se sila yo ki jistifye pwòp tèt nou nan zye lèzòm, menBondye konnen kè nou. Paske sila ki gen gwo valè pami lèzòm yo, yo abominab nan zye Bondye.
16 The Lawe and the Prophets endured vntill Iohn: and since that time the kingdome of God is preached, and euery man preasseth into it.
“Lalwa avèk pwofèt yo te pwoklame jiska Jean. Depi lè sa a bòn nouvèl a wayòm Bondye a preche, e tout moun ap fòse antre ladann.
17 Nowe it is more easie that heauen and earth shoulde passe away, then that one title of the Lawe should fall.
Men li pi fasil pou syèl la avèk tè a vin disparèt pase pou yon sèl mak oubyen lèt Lalwa ta anile.
18 Whosoeuer putteth away his wife, and marieth another, committeth adulterie: and whosoeuer marieth her that is put away from her husband, committeth adulterie.
“Nenpòt moun ki divòse ak madanm li pou marye avèk yon lòt fè adiltè; e sila a ki marye a youn ki divòse ak yon mari, fè adiltè.
19 There was a certaine riche man, which was clothed in purple and fine linnen, and fared well and delicately euery day.
“Alò, te gen yon sèten mesye rich ki te toujou abiye an mov ak lèn fen, e ki t ap viv nan gran richès chak jou.
20 Also there was a certaine begger named Lazarus, which was laide at his gate full of sores,
“Alò, yon sèten mesye pòv ki te rele Lazare tekouche devan pòtay li, kouvri nèt avèk maleng.
21 And desired to bee refreshed with the crommes that fell from the riche mans table: yea, and the dogges came and licked his sores.
Li te byen anvi resevwa sèl ti mòso ki t ap tonbe soti sou tab mesye rich la. Anplis menm chen te konn vin pou niche maleng li yo.
22 And it was so that the begger died, and was caried by the Angels into Abrahams bosome. The rich man also died, and was buried.
“Epi li rive ke nonm malere a te mouri, e li te vin pote pa zanj yo pou rive nan senAbraham nan. Konsa, mesye rich la te mouri tou, e li te antere.
23 And being in hell in torments, he lift vp his eyes, and sawe Abraham a farre off, and Lazarus in his bosome. (Hadēs g86)
Nanplas sejou mò yo, li te nan toumant. Li te leve zye li, e te wè Abraham byen lwen, ak Lazare nan sen li. (Hadēs g86)
24 Then he cried, and saide, Father Abraham, haue mercie on mee, and sende Lazarus that hee may dippe the tip of his finger in water, and coole my tongue: for I am tormented in this flame.
Li te kriye fò, e te di: ‘Papa Abraham, fè m gras, voye Lazare pou li kapab mete dwèt li nan dlo pou rafrechi lang mwen! Paske mwen nan doulè ekstrèm nan flanm sa a.
25 But Abraham saide, Sonne, remember that thou in thy life time receiuedst thy pleasures, and likewise Lazarus paines: now therefore is he comforted, and thou art tormented.
“Men Abraham te di: ‘Pitit, sonje ke pandan lavi ou, ou te resevwa bon bagay yo. E menm jan an, Lazare te resevwa move bagay yo. Men koulye a, l ap konsole isit la, e ou menm nan gran doulè.
26 Besides all this, betweene you and vs there is a great gulfe set, so that they which would goe from hence to you, can not: neither can they come from thence to vs.
Anplis de sa, antre nou avèk ou menm, gen yon gran vid byen etabli pou anpeche sila isit yo ki vle travèse kote ou a, e ke pèsòn pa kapab travèse soti la a pou rive kote nou menm nan.’
27 Then he said, I pray thee therfore, father, that thou wouldest sende him to my fathers house,
“Pou sa li te di: ‘Alò, mwen sipliye ou Papa, pou ou voye li lakay papa m—
28 (For I haue fiue brethren) that he may testifie vnto them, least they also come into this place of torment.
Pwiske mwen gen senk frè—pou li kapab avèti yo, pou ke yo menm tou pa vini nan plas toumant sa a.’
29 Abraham said vnto him, They haue Moses and the Prophets: let them heare them.
“Men Abraham te di: ‘Yo gen Moïse avèk pwofèt yo. Kite yo tande yo.’
30 And he sayde, Nay, father Abraham: but if one came vnto them from the dead, they will amend their liues.
“Men li te di: ‘Non. Papa Abraham, men si yon moun ta sòti nan mò a, ale kote yo, yo va repanti!’
31 Then he saide vnto him, If they heare not Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rise from the dead againe.
“Men li te di yo: ‘Si yo pa koute Moïse avèk pwofèt yo, nonpli, yo p ap kwè menm si yon moun leve soti nan lanmò.
