Matthew 24
1 Jesus went out from the temple, and was going on his way. His disciples came to him to show him the buildings of the temple.
Jezi soti nan tanp lan, li tapral fè wout li lè disip li yo pwoche bò kote li. Yo t'ap fè l' wè ki jan tanp lan te byen bati.
2 But answering, he said to them, "Do you not see all of these things? Truly I tell you, there will not be left here one stone on another, that will not be thrown down."
Men li di yo: Nou wè tout bagay sa yo! Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi. Yon lè p'ap gen de wòch k'ap rete kanpe yonn sou lòt. Tou sa pral kraze nèt vide atè.
3 As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of your coming, and of the end of the age?" (aiōn g165)
Jezi te chita sou mòn Oliv la. Disip li yo te pou kont yo avèk li. Yo pwoche bò kote l', yo mande li: Manyè di nou kilè sa va rive? Di nou ki siy ki va fè nou konnen lè w'ap vini an, lè tan sa a va fini nèt? (aiōn g165)
4 Jesus answered them, "Be careful that no one leads you astray.
Jezi reponn yo: Atansyon pou pesonn pa twonpe nou.
5 For many will come in my name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will lead many astray.
Paske, anpil moun va vini sou non mwen, y'a di se yo menm ki Kris la. y'a twonpe anpil moun.
6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled, for this must happen, but the end is not yet.
Nou pral tande lagè ap fèt toupre nou, ansanm ak nouvèl lagè k'ap fèt byen lwen. Koute sa m'ap di nou byen: nou pa bezwen pè. Paske, fòk bagay sa yo rive. Men, se p'ap ankò lafen an sa.
7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines and plagues and earthquakes in various places.
Yon pèp pral leve goumen ak yon lòt pèp. Yon peyi va atake yon lòt peyi. Va gen anpil grangou, va gen tranblemanntè divès kote.
8 But all these things are the beginning of birth pains.
Tou sa, se va tankou tranche anvan akouchman.
9 Then they will deliver you up to oppression, and will kill you. You will be hated by all of the nations for my name's sake.
Lè sa a, y'ap pran nou, y'ap lage nou nan men moun k'ap fè nou pase touman, y'ap touye nou. Moun tout nasyon pral rayi nou poutèt mwen.
10 Then many will stumble, and will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.
Lè sa a, anpil moun pral jwenn okazyon pou yo tonbe nan peche, yonn pral denonse lòt, yonn pral rayi lòt.
11 Many false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray.
Gen anpil moun k'ap parèt, y'ap pran pòz pwofèt yo, y'a twonpe anpil moun.
12 And because lawlessness is multiplied, the love of many will grow cold.
Ap sitèlman gen mechanste sou latè, pifò moun yonn p'ap renmen lòt.
13 But he who endures to the end, the same will be saved.
Men, moun ki va kenbe fèm jouk sa kaba, se li ki va delivre.
14 This Good News of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.
Fòk yo gen tan mache bay bon nouvèl Peyi kote Bondye Wa a toupatou sou latè, pou tout moun ka tande mesaj la. Se lè sa a atò lafen an va rive.
15 "When, therefore, you see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand),
Pwofèt Danyèl te pale sou bagay nou pa ta renmen wè a, bagay k'ap bay gwo lapenn lan. Enben, nou gen pou nou wè bagay sa a chita kote ki rezève nan tanp lan apa pou Bondye. (Se pou moun k'ap li a chache konprann.)
16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
Lè sa a, tout moun ki nan peyi Jide pral blije sove al nan mòn.
17 Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take out things that are in his house.
Moun ki va sou tèt kay yo, yo p'ap bezwen antre pran zafè yo nan kay la.
18 Let him who is in the field not return back to take his coat.
Moun ki nan jaden pa bezwen tounen lakay yo al pran rechanj.
19 But woe to those who are with child and to nursing mothers in those days.
Lè sa a, se p'ap de doulè pou fanm ansent ak nouris yo.
20 Pray that your flight will not be in the winter, nor on a Sabbath,
Lapriyè Bondye pou jou n'a gen pou n' kouri a pa rive ni nan tan fredi, ni yon jou saba.
21 for then there will be great oppression, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be.
Paske lè sa a, va gen yon gwo lafliksyon moun poko janm wè depi nan konmansman lè Bondye t'ap kreye latè a jouk jòdi a. p'ap janm gen yon lòt tankou l' ankò.
22 Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved. But for the sake of the chosen ones, those days will be shortened.
Si yo pa t' wete kèk jou sou jou sa yo, pesonn pa ta sove. Men, y'a wete sou jou sa yo poutèt moun Bondye chwazi yo.
23 "Then if anyone tells you, 'Look, here is the Christ,' or, 'There,' do not believe it.
Lè sa a, si yon moun di nou: Gade, men Kris la bò isit, osinon: Men li bò la a, pa kwè li.
24 For there will arise false messiahs, and false prophets, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.
Paske lè sa a, gen fo Kris ak fo pwofèt k'ap parèt. y'a fè anpil mèvèy ak anpil mirak pou twonpe ata moun Bondye chwazi yo, si yo ta kapab.
25 "See, I have told you beforehand.
Mwen di nou sa davans.
26 If therefore they tell you, 'Look, he is in the wilderness,' do not go out; 'Look, he is in the inner chambers,' do not believe it.
Se pou si yo di nou: Gade, men l' nan dezè a, nou pa bezwen ale. Osinon, si yo di nou: Gade, men l' kache bò isit la, nou pa bezwen kwè yo.
27 For as the lightning flashes from the east, and is seen even to the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
Menm jan zèklè a fè yan, li klere tout syèl la depi bò solèy leve jouk bò solèy kouche, se konsa Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a gen pou l' vini.
28 Wherever the carcass is, there is where the vultures gather together.
Kote kadav la va ye a, se la votou yo va sanble.
29 But immediately after the oppression of those days, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken;
Kou jou lafliksyon sa yo fin pase, solèy la p'ap klere ankò, lalin lan p'ap bay limyè l' ankò, zetwal yo va soti tonbe nan syèl la. Pouvwa yo ki nan syèl la va pran tranble.
30 and then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky. Then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory.
Lè sa a, n'a wè siy nan syèl la k'ap fè nou konnen Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a ap tounen. Lè sa a, tout nasyon ki sou latè va pran kriye. y'a wè Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a ap vini anwo nwaj yo nan syèl la, avèk pouvwa, nan mitan yon bann bèl bagay.
31 He will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather together his chosen ones from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.
Gwo klewon an va sonnen, la voye zanj li yo nan kat kwen latè pou sanble tout moun Bondye te chwazi yo, depi yon bout nan syèl la jouk nan lòt bout la.
32 "Now from the fig tree learn this parable. When its branch has now become tender, and puts forth its leaves, you know that the summer is near.
Pran leson sou pye fig frans lan. Kou l' kòmanse boujonnen, kou l' pouse fèy, nou konnen sezon chalè a sou nou.
33 Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
Menm jan an tou, lè n'a wè tout bagay sa yo rive, nou mèt konnen Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a toupre, li la nan papòt la.
34 Truly I tell you, this generation will not pass away, until all these things are accomplished.
Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: gen moun nan jenerasyon sa a ki p'ap gen tan mouri anvan tout bagay sa yo rive.
35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
Syèl la ak tout tè a va pase, men pawòl mwen p'ap janm pase.
36 But no one knows of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but my Father only.
Men, pesonn pa konnen ni ki jou, ni ki lè sa va rive, pa menm zanj yo ki nan syèl la, pa menm Pitit la. Sèl Papa a konn sa.
37 "As the days of Noah were, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
Sak te rive nan tan Noe a, se sa k'ap rive tou lè Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a ap vini.
38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the box-shaped ship,
Se konsa, nan jou anvan gwo inondasyon an, moun t'ap manje, yo t'ap bwè, moun t'ap marye, yo t'ap marye pitit fi yo. Konsa konsa, jouk jou Noe te antre nan gwo batiman an.
39 and they did not know until the flood came, and took them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
Yo pa t' konprann anyen nan sa ki t'ap pase, jouk lè gwo inondasyon an fèt, li pote yo tout ale. Se va menm jan an tou lè Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a va vini.
40 Then two will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left.
Lè sa a, va gen de gason nan yon menm jaden, y'ap pran yonn, y'ap kite lòt la.
41 Two will be grinding grain with a mill; one will be taken and the other left.
Va gen de fanm k'ap moulen mayi, y'ap pran yonn, y'ap kite lòt la.
42 Watch therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord comes.
Se poutèt sa, pa kite dòmi pran nou, paske nou pa konnen ki jou Mèt nou va vini.
43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.
Se yon bagay nou tout dwe konnen: Si mèt kay la te konnen kilè nan lannwit lan vòlò a t'ap vini, li ta veye, li pa ta kite l' kase kay la.
44 Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you do not expect, the Son of Man will come.
Se pou sa tou, nou menm se pou nou toujou pare, paske Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a ap vini lè nou pa ta kwè.
45 "Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has set over his household, to give them their food in due season?
Ki moun ki ka di li se yon jeran entelijan ki fè tout travay li byen? Se moun sa a mèt kay la va mete pou veye sou moun nan kay la, pou bay lòt domestik yo manje lè pou yo manje.
46 Blessed is that servant whom his lord finds doing so when he comes.
Se va bèl bagay pou domestik la si mèt la jwenn li ap fè travay li lè l' tounen lakay li.
47 Truly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.
Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Mèt la va mete l' reskonsab tout byen l' yo.
48 But if that evil servant should say in his heart, 'My lord is delayed,'
Men, si domestik sa a se yon move moun, l'ap di nan kè l': Mèt mwen ap fè reta. Li poko ap vini.
49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eat and drink with the drunkards,
L'ap tonbe bat kanmarad li yo, l'ap rete ap plede manje, ap plede bwè ak tafyatè.
50 the lord of that servant will come in a day when he does not expect it, and in an hour when he does not know it,
Mèt domestik sa a va rive jou l' pa t'ap tann, yon lè li p'ap konnen.
51 and will cut him in pieces, and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. There is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.
L'ap rachonnen msye anba kou, l'ap regle avè l' menm jan yo regle ak moun ipokrit yo. Se lè sa a va gen rèl, se lè sa a va gen manje dan.
