Matthew 13
1 That same day Jesus had left the house and was sitting on the shore of the Lake,
Nan jou sa a, Jésus te sòti nan kay la e te chita bò kote lanmè a.
2 when a vast multitude of people crowded round Him. He therefore went on board a boat and sat there, while all the people stood on the shore.
Yon gran foul te rasanble bò kote L, epi Li te antre chita nan yon kannòt. Foul la te kanpe arebò lanmè a.
3 He then spoke many things to them in figurative language. "The sower goes out," He said, "to sow.
Li te pale anpil bagay avèk yo an parabòl konsa: “Gade byen, yon moun ki t ap plante, te ale deyò pou simen grenn.
4 As he sows, some of the seed falls by the way-side, and the birds come and peck it up.
Pandan li t ap simen, kèk grenn te tonbe akote wout la, e zwazo te vin manje yo.
5 Some falls on rocky ground, where it has but scanty soil. It quickly shows itself above ground, because it has no depth of earth;
Gen lòt ki te tonbe kote ki plen wòch kote te manke tè, epi yo te leve byen vit pwiske tè a te manke pwofondè.
6 but when the sun is risen, it is scorched by the heat, and through having no root it withers up.
Men lè solèy la vin leve, yo te vin sèch; akoz ke yo te manke rasin, yo te vin fennen.
7 Some falls among the thorns; but the thorns spring up and stifle it.
Lòt te tonbe pami pikan e pikan yo te leve toufe yo.
8 But a portion falls upon good ground, and gives a return, some a hundred for one, some sixty, some thirty.
Lòt te tonbe nan bon tè kote yo te bay yon bon rekòlt; kèk miltipliye san fwa, kèk swasant fwa, e kèk trant fwa.
9 Listen, every one who has ears!"
Sila ki gen zòrèy la, kite li tande.”
10 (And His disciples came and asked Him, "Why do you speak to them in figurative language?"
Disip Li yo te vin kote L e te mande: “Poukisa ou pale avèk yo an parabòl konsa?”
11 "Because," He replied, "while to you it is granted to know the secrets of the Kingdom of the Heavens, to them it is not.
Li te reponn yo: “A nou menm, li pèmèt pou nou konnen sekrè a wayòm syèl la, men pou yo menm, sa poko pèmèt.
12 For whoever has, to him more shall be given, and he shall have abundance; but whoever has not, from him even what he has shall be taken away.
Paske pou nenpòt moun ki genyen, l ap vin resevwa plis, e l ap gen an abondans; men pou nenpòt moun ki pa genyen, menm sa li genyen an ap retire nan men l.
13 I speak to them in figurative language for this reason, that while looking they do not see, and while hearing they neither hear nor understand.
Se pou sa Mwen pale ak yo an parabòl; paske pandan y ap gade yo p ap wè, e pandan y ap tande yo p ap koute, ni yo p ap konprann.
14 And in regard to them the prophecy of Isaiah is receiving signal fulfilment: "'You will hear and hear and by no means understand, and you will look and look and by no means see.
Se nan yo menm, ke pwofesi Ésaïe a ap akonpli lè l di: ‘Nou va kontinye tande, men nou p ap konprann; nou va kontinye gade, men nap manke apèsi.
15 For this people's mind is stupefied, their hearing has become dull, and their eyes they have closed; to prevent their ever seeing with their eyes, or hearing with their ears, or understanding with their minds, and turning back, so that I might heal them.'
Paske kè a pèp sa a pa sansib ankò. Avèk zòrèy yo manke tande e yo fèmen zye yo; otreman yo ta wè avèk zye yo, tande avèk zòrèy yo, konprann avèk kè yo, e retounen pou M ta kapab geri yo.’
16 "But as for you, blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear.
“Men beni se zye pa nou paske yo wè; e zòrèy nou paske yo tande.
17 For I solemnly tell you that many Prophets and holy men have longed to see the sights you see, and have not seen them, and to hear the words you hear, and have not heard them.
Anverite, Mwen di nou ke anpil pwofèt ak moun ladwati te vle wè sa ke nou menm wè a, men yo pa t janm wè; e pou tande sa ke nou tande a, men yo pa t tande l.
18 "To you then I will explain the parable of the Sower.
“Pou sa, tande parabòl moun ki t ap simen an.
19 When a man hears the Message concerning the Kingdom and does not understand it, the Evil one comes and catches away what has been sown in his heart. This is he who has received the seed by the road-side.
Lè nenpòt moun tande pawòl wayòm nan e li pa konprann li, mechan an (Satan) vini rache sa ki te plante nan kè li a. Sa se grenn ki te simen akote wout la.
20 He who has received the seed on the rocky ground is the man who hears the Message and immediately receives it with joy.
Sa ki te simen nan wòch yo se moun ki tande pawòl la e imedyatman li resevwa l avèk jwa;
21 It has struck no root, however, within him. He continues for a time, but when suffering comes, or persecution, because of the Message, he at once stumbles and falls.
men li pa gen rasin pou kont li, e li dire sèlman pou yon moman. Lè gen afliksyon avèk pèsekisyon akoz pawòl la, byen vit li chite.
22 He who has received the seed among the thorns is the man who hears the Message, but the cares of the present age and the delusions of riches quite stifle the Message, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
Epi sila ki te simen pami pikan yo se moun ki tande pawòl la, men tout pwoblèm mond sa a, avèk sediksyon richès yo toufe pawòl la, e li pa donnen fwi. (aiōn g165)
23 But he who has received the seed on good ground is he who hears and understands. Such hearers give a return, and yield one a hundred for one, another sixty, another thirty.")
Konsa, sila ki te gen grenn ki tonbe nan bon tè a, se moun ki tande pawòl la e ki konprann li. Li vrèman pote fwi ki pwodwi pafwa, san fwa, pafwa swasant fwa, e pafwa trant fwa sa li te simen an.”
24 Another parable He put before them. "The Kingdom of the Heavens," He said, "may be compared to a man who has sown good seed in his field,
Jésus te bay yo yon lòt parabòl. Li te di: “Wayòm syèl la se kon yon nonm ki simen bon semans nan chan li.
25 but during the night his enemy comes, and over the first seed he sows darnel among the wheat, and goes away.
Men pandan ouvriye li yo t ap dòmi, lènmi li yo te vin simen zèb pikan pami ble a, e ale.
26 But when the blade shoots up and the grain is formed, then appears the darnel also.
Men lè ble a te vin leve e fòme tèt grenn, zèb pikan yo te parèt tou.
27 "So the farmer's men come and ask him, "'Sir, was it not good seed that you sowed on your land? Where then does the darnel come from?'
Epi esklav a mèt tè yo te vin di l: ‘Mèt, èske nou pa t simen bon semans nan chan ou an? Kijan konsa li vin plen avèk zèb pikan sa yo.’
28 "'Some enemy has done this,' he said. "'Shall we go, and collect it?' the men inquire.
“Epi Li te di yo: ‘Yon lènmi te fè sa!’ E esklav yo te di li: ‘Ou pa vle nou ale ranmase yo?’
29 "'No,' he replied, 'for fear that while collecting the darnel you should at the same time root up the wheat with it.
“Men li te di yo: ‘Non, paske pandan nou ap ranmase zèb pikan yo, nou kab derasinen ble a tou.
30 Leave both to grow together until the harvest, and at harvest-time I will direct the reapers, Collect the darnel first, and make it up into bundles to burn it, but bring all the wheat into my barn.'"
Kite toulède grandi ansanm jouk rekòlt la rive. Nan tan rekòlt la, mwen va di ouvriye yo, premyèman, ranmase zèb pikan yo, mare yo nan pake e brile yo. Men ranmase ble a pou mete li nan depo mwen.’”
31 Another parable He put before them. "The Kingdom of the Heavens," He said, "is like a mustard-seed, which a man takes and sows in his ground.
Li te pale yon lòt parabòl a yo menm. Li te di: “Wayòm syèl la tankou yon grenn moutad ke yon nonm te pran pou simen nan jaden li.
32 It is the smallest of all seeds, and yet when full-grown it is larger than any herb and forms a tree, so that the birds come and build in its branches."
Malgre grenn sa a pi piti pase tout lòt grenn yo, lè li vin grandi, li pi gran pase tout lòt plant nan jaden an, e te vin fè yon pyebwa kote tout zwazo ki vole anlè vin fè nich nan branch li yo.”
33 Another parable He spoke to them. "The Kingdom of the Heavens," He said, "is like yeast which a woman takes and buries in a bushel of flour, for it to work there till the whole mass has risen."
Li pale yon lòt parabòl a yo menm konsa: “Wayòm syèl la tankou ledven ke yon fanm te pran pou sere nan twa mezi farin jiskaske tout vin leve.”
34 All this Jesus spoke to the people in figurative language, and except in figurative language He spoke nothing to them,
Tout bagay sa yo, Jésus te pale a foul la an parabòl, epi Li pa t pale avèk yo san parabòl.
35 in fulfilment of the saying of the Prophet, "I will open my mouth in figurative language, I will utter things kept hidden since the creation of all things."
Se te pou akonpli sa ki te pale pa pwofèt yo lè yo te di: “Mwen va ouvri bouch Mwen an parabòl; Mwen va eksprime sekrè ki kache depi fondasyon mond sa a.”
36 When He had dismissed the people and had returned to the house, His disciples came to Him with the request, "Explain to us the parable of the darnel sown in the field."
Apre sa, Li kite foul la e Li te ale nan kay la. Disip Li yo te vin kote l pou di: “Eksplike nou parabòl konsènan zèb pikan nan chan an.”
37 "The sower of the good seed," He replied, "is the Son of Man;
Li te di: “Sila a ki simen bon semans lan se Fis a Lòm nan.
38 the field is the world; the good seed--these are the sons of the Kingdom; the darnel, the sons of the Evil one.
Chan an se lemonn, e bon semans lan, se sila yo ki fis a wayòm nan. Zèb pikan yo se sila yo ki fis a mechan an.
39 The enemy who sows the darnel is the Devil; the harvest is the Close of the Age; the reapers are the angels. (aiōn g165)
Epi lènmi ki te simen move grenn nan se Satan. Rekòlt la se fen tan yo, epi ouvriye yo se zanj yo. (aiōn g165)
40 As then the darnel is collected together and burnt up with fire, so will it be at the Close of the Age. (aiōn g165)
Pou sa, menm jan ke zèb pikan yo ranmase e brile avèk dife, konsa sa ap ye nan fen tan yo. (aiōn g165)
41 The Son of Man will commission His angels, and they will gather out of His Kingdom all causes of sin and all who violate His laws;
Fis a Lòm nan ap voye zanj li yo pou ranmase fè sòti nan wayòm Li an, tout obstak ki fè moun tonbe, avèk tout sila k ap fè mechanste.
42 and these they will throw into the fiery furnace. There will be the weeping aloud and the gnashing of teeth.
L ap jete yo nan founo dife a e nan plas sa a, y ap kriye e y ap manje dan yo.
43 Then will the righteous shine out like the sun in their Father's Kingdom. Listen, every one who has ears!
Konsa, sila ki gen ladwati yo ap fè klè tankou solèy la nan wayòm Papa yo a. Sila ki gen zòrèy la, kite l tande.
44 "The Kingdom of the Heavens is like treasure buried in the open country, which a man finds, but buries again, and, in his joy about it, goes and sells all he has and buys that piece of ground.
“Wayòm syèl la tankou yon trezò ki te sere nan yon chan. Yon nonm te twouve li e te sere l ankò. Ranpli ak lajwa, li te kouri ale vann tout sa li te posede, e te achte chan sa a.
45 "Again the Kingdom of the Heavens is like a jewel merchant who is in quest of choice pearls.
“Ankò, wayòm syèl la tankou yon machann k ap chèche bèl pèl.
46 He finds one most costly pearl; he goes away; and though it costs all he has, he buys it.
Lè li twouve youn ki gen gran valè, li te ale vann tout sa li te posede pou te achte l.
47 "Again the Kingdom of the Heavens is like a draw-net let down into the sea, which encloses fish of all sorts.
“Ankò, wayòm syèl la se yon filè ki voye nan lanmè pou ranmase tout kalite pwason.
48 When full, they haul it up on the beach, and sit down and collect the good fish in baskets, while the worthless they throw away.
Lè l fin ranpli, yo rale li atè. Yo te chita pou mete bon pwason nan yon veso, e te jete move yo.
49 So will it be at the Close of the Age. The angels will go forth and separate the wicked from among the righteous, (aiōn g165)
Konsa sa ap ye nan fen tan yo. Zanj yo ap tou parèt e y ap fè triyaj mechan yo pami jis yo. (aiōn g165)
50 and will throw them into the fiery furnace. There will be the weeping aloud and the gnashing of teeth."
Epi y ap jete mechan yo nan founo dife a, kote y ap kriye e manje dan yo.
51 "Have you understood all this?" He asked. "Yes," they said.
“Èske nou konprann tout bagay sa yo?” Yo reponn Li: “Wi”.
52 "Therefore," He said, "remember that every Scribe well trained for the Kingdom of the Heavens is like a householder who brings out of his storehouse new things and old."
Epi Jésus te di yo: “Konsa, chak skrib ki vini yon disip a wayòm nan se tankou yon mèt kay ki fè vin parèt nan trezò li sa ki nèf ak sa ki vye.”
53 Jesus concluded this series of parables and then departed.
Lè Jésus te fini avèk parabòl sa yo, li kite la.
54 And He came into His own country and proceeded to teach in their synagogue, so that they were filled with astonishment and exclaimed, "Where did he obtain such wisdom, and these wondrous powers?
Li rive nan vil pa Li a, e Li te kòmanse preche nan sinagòg yo, jiskaske yo te etone e te di: “Kote nonm sa a twouve sajès sila a ak pouvwa fè mirak sa yo?
55 Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? And are not his brothers, James, Joseph, Simon and Judah?
Se pa pitit a chapant la? Èske yo pa rele manman L Marie, e frè li yo Jacques, Joseph, Simon ak Judas?
56 And his sisters--are they not all living here among us? Where then did he get all this?"
Epi sè Li yo; èske yo tout pa avèk nou? Ebyen, kote nonm sa a twouve tout bagay sa yo?”
57 So they turned angrily away from Him. But Jesus said to them, "There is no prophet left without honour except in his own country and among his own family."
Konsa, yo te pran ofans de Li. Men Jésus te di yo: “Yon pwofèt p ap janm manke respè sof ke nan pwòp vil li, ak nan pwòp kay li.”
58 And He performed but few mighty deeds there because of their want of faith.
Li pa t fè anpil mirak la akoz ke yo pa t kwè.
