John 5
1 After these things, there was a Jewish festival, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
Apre sa, jwif yo te gen yon fèt nan tanp lan. Jezi moute Jerizalèm.
2 Now in Jerusalem by the sheep area there is a pool, which is called in Hebrew, "Beth Hesda," having five porches.
Nan lavil la, bò Pòtay Mouton yo, te gen yon gwo basen dlo yo te rele nan lang ebre: Betzata. Te gen senk pòt ki te bay sou li.
3 In these lay a multitude of those who were sick, blind, lame, or paralyzed.
Devan pòt yo, te gen anpil moun ki te gen tout kalite maladi kouche la: gen sa ki te avèg, gen sa ki t'ap bwete, gen sa ki te paralize. Yo tout yo t'ap tann lè dlo a pran bouyi.
Paske, tanzantan, yon zanj Bondye te desann nan basen an vin brase dlo a. Premye moun malad ki te desann nan dlo a apre zanj lan te fin brase l' la te geri, nenpòt ki maladi li te genyen.
5 A certain man was there, who had been sick for thirty-eight years.
Te gen yon nonm la ki te malad depi trantwitan.
6 When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had been sick for a long time, he asked him, "Do you want to be made well?"
Jezi wè l' kouche. Li vin konnen li te malad depi tout tan sa a. Li mande li: Eske ou vle geri?
7 The sick man answered him, "Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I am on my way, someone else steps down ahead of me."
Malad la reponn li: Mèt, mwen pa gen pesonn pou mete m' nan basen an lè dlo a ap bouyi. Lè mwen fè sa pou m' ale, yon lòt gen tan desann anvan mwen.
8 Jesus said to him, "Arise, take up your mat, and walk."
Jezi di li: Leve non. Pran nat ou, mache ou ale.
9 Immediately, the man was made well, and took up his mat and walked. Now it was the Sabbath on that day.
Menm lè a, nonm lan geri. Li ranmase nat li, li pran mache. Men, jou sa fèt la se te yon jou repo.
10 So the Jewish leaders said to him who was cured, "It is the Sabbath. It is not lawful for you to carry the mat."
Jwif yo di nonm ki te geri a: Jòdi a se jou repo. Lalwa nou an pa pèmèt pou w'ap pote nat ou jòdi a.
11 But he answered them, "The one who made me well, that one said to me, 'Take up your mat, and walk.'"
Li reponn yo: Se moun ki geri m' lan wi ki di m' ranmase nat mwen, mache m' ale.
12 Then they asked him, "Who is the man who said to you to pick it up and walk?"
Lè sa a, yo mande li: Kilès sa a ki di ou ranmase nat ou, mache ou ale a?
13 But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a crowd being in the place.
Men, nonm ki te geri a pa t' konnen ki moun li te ye, paske te sitèlman gen moun la, Jezi te gen tan pati al fè wout li.
14 Afterward Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, "See, you are made well. Sin no more, so that nothing worse happens to you."
Pita, Jezi kontre nonm lan nan tanp lan. Li di li konsa: Koute non. Koulye a ou wè ou geri, pa fè peche, tande, pou bagay pi mal pa rive ou.
15 The man went away, and told the Jewish leaders that it was Jesus who had made him well.
Nonm lan al di jwif yo se Jezi ki te geri li.
16 For this cause the Jewish leaders persecuted Jesus, because he did these things on the Sabbath.
Se poutèt sa jwif yo tanmen pèsekite Jezi paske li te fè sa yon jou repo.
17 But he answered them, "My Father is still working, so I am working, too."
Men, Jezi reponn yo: Se tout tan Papa m' ap travay. Mwen menm tou, m'ap travay.
18 For this cause therefore the Jewish leaders sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
Poutèt pawòl sa a, jwif yo t'ap chache pi rèd atò pou yo te touye l'. Li pa t' sèlman fè bagay ki kont lalwa repo a, men li te di yo Bondye se papa li. Lè l' di sa, li te fè tèt li pase pou menm moun ak Bondye.
19 Jesus therefore answered them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father doing. For whatever things he does, these the Son also does likewise.
Lè sa a, Jezi reponn yo: Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Pitit Bondye a pa fè anyen pou kò li. Sa l' wè Papa a fè, se sa l' fè tou. Tou sa Papa a ap fè, Pitit la fè l' tou.
20 For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does. He will show him greater works than these, so that you may marvel.
Papa a renmen Pitit la, li moutre l' tou sa li menm l'ap fè. Li gen pou l' moutre l' fè bagay ki pi estwòdenè pase sa. Lè sa a, nou p'ap manke sezi.
21 For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom he desires.
Papa a fè moun mouri leve, li ba yo lavi ankò. Konsa tou, Pitit la bay moun li vle lavi.
22 For the Father judges no one, but he has given all judgment to the Son,
Papa a pa jije pesonn, men li bay Pitit la tout pouvwa pou jije.
23 that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.
Konsa, tout moun va gen respè pou Pitit la, menm jan yo gen respè pou Papa a. Moun ki pa respekte Pitit la, li pa gen respè pou Papa ki voye l' la non plis.
24 "Truly, truly, I tell you, he who hears my word, and believes him who sent me, has everlasting life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life. (aiōnios g166)
Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Yon moun ki koute pawòl mwen, ki mete konfyans nan moun ki voye m' lan, l'ap gen lavi ki p'ap janm fini an. Yo p'ap kondannen li. Li deja soti nan lanmò, li antre nan lavi. (aiōnios g166)
25 Truly, truly, I tell you, the hour comes, and now is, when the dead will hear the Son of God's voice; and those who hear will live.
Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Lè a ap rive, li rive deja: moun mouri yo pral tande vwa Pitit Bondye a. Tout moun mouri ki va tande vwa sa a pral gen lavi.
26 For as the Father has life in himself, even so he gave to the Son also to have life in himself.
Papa a gen pouvwa pou l' bay lavi. Konsa tou, li bay Pitit la pouvwa pou bay lavi tou.
27 He also gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man.
Li bay Pitit la otorite pou jije, paske Pitit la, se Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a.
28 Do not be amazed at this, for the hour comes, in which all that are in the tombs will hear his voice,
Nou pa bezwen sezi. Lè a pral rive: tout mò ki nan tonm pral tande vwa li,
29 and will come out; those who have done good, to the resurrection of life; and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.
yo pral leve soti vivan nan tonm yo. Moun ki fè sa ki byen pral leve pou resevwa lavi ki p'ap janm fini an. Men, tout moun ki fè sa ki mal pral leve pou resevwa kondannasyon yo.
30 I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is righteous; because I do not seek my own will, but the will of the One who sent me.
Mwen pa kapab fè anyen pou kò mwen. M'ap jije dapre sa Bondye di mwen. Jijman mwen bon paske sa m'ap chache fè a se pa sa m' vle, men sa moun ki voye m' lan vle.
31 "If I testify about myself, my witness is not valid.
Si m' pale tèt mwen byen, moun pa ka asepte sa m'ap di a pou verite.
32 It is another who testifies about me. I know that the testimony which he testifies about me is true.
Men, se yon lòt k'ap pale byen sou mwen. Mwen konnen sa l'ap di sou mwen an, se verite.
33 You have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.
Nou te voye moun bò kot Jan. Li te di nou verite a jan l' ye a.
34 But the testimony which I receive is not from man. However, I say these things that you may be saved.
Mwen menm poutèt pa m', mwen pa bezwen pesonn pale pou mwen. Men, mwen di nou sa pou nou kapab sove.
35 He was the burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.
Jan te tankou yon lanp yo limen ki klere byen bèl. Pou yon tan, nou te byen kontan pwofite limyè li a.
36 But the testimony which I have is greater than that of John, for the works which the Father gave me to accomplish, the very works that I do, testify about me, that the Father has sent me.
Men, pou mwen menm, mwen gen yon lòt bagay ki pale an favè m' ki pi bon toujou pase sa Jan te di sou mwen an. Se travay m'ap fè a, travay Papa m' ban m' fè a ki pale pou mwen. Sa fè wè se Papa a ki voye mwen.
37 The Father himself, who sent me, has testified about me. You have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.
Papa ki voye m' lan, li menm tou l'ap pale an favè mwen. Nou pa janm tande vwa l', ni nou pa janm wè figi li.
38 You do not have his word living in you; because you do not believe him whom he sent.
Nou pa kenbe pawòl li yo nan kè nou, paske nou pa kwè nan moun li voye a.
39 You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have everlasting life; and these are they which testify about me. (aiōnios g166)
N'ap plede etidye sa ki ekri nan Liv la, paske nou mete nan tèt nou nou ka jwenn lavi ki pa janm fini an ladan li. Men, se Liv sa a menm ki pale sou mwen. (aiōnios g166)
40 But you are unwilling to come to me so that you may have life.
Malgre sa, nou pa vle vin jwenn mwen pou nou ka gen lavi tout bon an.
41 I do not receive glory from people.
Mwen p'ap chache lwanj nan men lèzòm.
42 But I know you, that you do not have God's love in yourselves.
Men, mwen konnen ki moun nou ye: nou pa gen renmen pou Bondye nan kè nou.
43 I have come in my Father's name, and you do not receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him.
Se Papa m' ki voye mwen. Men, nou pa vle resevwa mwen. Men, kite yon lòt moun vin pou kont li, n'ap resevwa li.
44 How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and you do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?
Nou renmen resevwa lwanj yonn nan men lòt, nou pa chache lwanj ki soti nan men Bondye ki pa gen parèy la. Nan kondisyon sa a, ki jan pou nou kwè?
45 "Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you, even Moses, on whom you have set your hope.
Pa mete nan tèt nou mwen pral akize nou devan Papa mwen. Se Moyiz ki pral akize nou, Moyiz nou di ki tout espwa nou an.
46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote about me.
Si nou te kwè tout bon nan Moyiz, nou ta kwè nan mwen tou, paske li ekri sou mwen tou.
47 But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?"
Men, nou pa kwè nan sa l' te ekri a. Ki jan pou n' ta fè kwè sa m'ap di nou an?
