John 16
1 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye may not be offended:
“Mwen pale nou bagay sa yo pou nou kapab evite chite.
2 for they will excommunicate you: yea, the time is coming, that whosoever killeth you, will think that he offers an acceptable service to God.
“Yo va mete nou deyò nan sinagòg la, epi lè a ap vini ke y ap konprann ke se yon sèvis yo rann Bondye lè yo touye nou.
3 And these things will they do unto you; because they have not known the Father, nor me.
Bagay sa yo, yo va fè paske yo pa t janm konnen Papa a, ni Mwen.
4 But I have told you these things, that when the time cometh, ye may remember that I told you of them. Though I did not tell you of them at the beginning, because I was with you.
Men bagay sa yo Mwen te pale nou an pou lè lè a rive, nou va sonje ke M te di nou sa. Epi bagay sa yo Mwen pa t di nou nan kòmansman, paske Mwen te avèk nou.
5 But now I am going away to Him that sent me, and yet none of you asketh me, Whither art thou going? but because I have said these things to you,
“Men koulye a, M ap prale a Sila a ki te voye Mwen an. E pa gen nan nou k ap mande M: ‘Kibò W ap prale’?
6 sorrow hath filled your heart.
Men akoz ke M te di nou bagay sa yo, gwo doulè antre nan kè nou.
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I should go away; for if I go not away, the comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you.
“Men Mwen di nou laverite se nan lavantaj pa nou ke M ap prale. Paske si M pa ale, Konseye a p ap vin kote nou, men si M ale, M ap voye Li bay nou.
8 And when He comes, He will convince the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgement:
E Li, lè L vini, L ap konvenk lemonn konsènan peche, ladwati, ak jijman.
9 of sin, because they believe not on me;
Konsènan peche, paske yo pa kwè nan Mwen,
10 of righteousness, because I am going to my Father and ye shall see me no more;
Selon ladwati, paske Mwen ale nan Papa a, e nou p ap ka wè M ankò.
11 and of judgement, because the prince of this world is judged.
Epi selon jijman, paske Mèt mond sa a gen tan jije.
12 I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now.
“Mwen gen anpil bagay anplis pou M ta di nou, men nou p ap kab sipòte yo koulye a.
13 But when the Spirit of truth is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He will not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that will He speak, and will shew you things to come.
Men lè Li, Lespri verite a vini, Li va dirije nou nan tout verite. Paske Li p ap pale pou kont Li, men sa Li tande, L ap pale. Li va montre nou tout sa ki va vini.
14 He shall glorify me, for He shall take of mine and shew it unto you.
Li va fè M resevwa glwa Mwen, paske l ap pran sa ki pou Mwen, e fè nou konprann li.
15 All that the Father hath are mine: therefore I said, that He shall take of mine and shew it unto you.
“Tout bagay ke Papa a genyen se pou Mwen. Pou sa, Mwen di nou Li pran sa ki pou Mwen, e devwale li a nou.
16 A little while and ye shall not see me: and again a little while and ye shall see me, because I am going to the Father.
“Yon ti tan, e nou p ap wè M ankò, epi yon ti tan anplis, e nou va wè M.”
17 Some of his disciples therefore said one to another, What is the meaning of this that He saith to us, A little while and ye shall not see me, and again a little while and ye shall see me, and---because I am going to the Father?
Kèk nan disip Li yo te di youn a lòt: “Kisa L ap di nou la a? ‘Yon ti tan, e nou p ap wè M ankò, epi yon ti tan anplis e nou va wè M’ epi: ‘akoz ke M ap prale nan Papa a’?”
18 they said therefore, What is this little while that He speaks of? we do not understand what He means.
Konsa yo t ap di: “Kisa L ap pale: ‘Yon ti tan’? Nou pa konprann kisa L ap di.”
19 Now Jesus knew that they wanted to ask Him, and therefore said unto them, Are ye enquiring among each other about this, that I said, A little while and ye shall not see me, and again a little while and ye shall see me?
Jésus te konnen yo te vle kesyone L, epi Li te di yo: “Èske nou ap diskite pami nou sou sa ke M te di a: ‘Yon ti tan, e nou p ap wè M ankò, epi yon ti tan anplis, e nou va wè M?’
20 Verily I tell you, that ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
“Anverite, anverite, Mwen di nou, ke nou va kriye avèk lamantasyon, men lemonn va rejwi. Nou va ranpli avèk tristès, men tristès la va vin chanje an jwa.
21 A woman when she is in labor, hath sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she is delivered of the child, she thinks no more of the anguish, for joy, that a man is born into the world.
Lè yon fanm gen doulè nesans, li gen tristès, paske lè li rive, men lè l fin bay nesans a pitit la, li pa sonje soufrans lan ankò, akoz jwa ke yon pitit gen tan fèt nan lemonn.
22 And ye therefore now have sorrow; but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy shall no one take from you.
“Konsa, nou menm tou gen tristès koulye a. Men Mwen va wè nou ankò, e kè nou ap rejwi, e pèsòn p ap retire jwa nou ankò.
23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing: but I assure you, that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, He will give it you.
“E nan jou sa a nou p ap menm poze M kesyon sou okenn choz. Anverite, anverite, Mwen di nou, si nou mande Papa a pou nenpòt bagay, L ap bay nou Li nan non Mwen.
24 Hitherto ye have asked for nothing in my name: ask and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.
“Jis rive koulye a nou pa mande pou anyen nan non Mwen. Mande e nou va resevwa, pou jwa nou kapab vin ranpli.
25 These things have I spoken to you in parables: but the time is coming when I shall no more speak to you in parables, but tell you with plainness concerning the Father.
“Bagay sa yo Mwen pale nou an parabòl. Lè a ap vini lè M p ap pale avèk nou ankò an parabòl, men M ap pale nou byen klè konsènan Papa a.
26 In that day ye shall ask in my name; and I do not say that I will ask the Father on your behalf.
“Nan jou sa a nou va mande nan non Mwen, e Mwen p ap di nou ke M ap mande Papa a anfavè nou.
27 For the Father himself loveth you; because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came from God: and I indeed came from the Father,
Paske Papa a Li menm, renmen nou paske nou renmen Mwen, e te kwè ke Mwen te sòti nan Papa a.
28 and am come into the world: but now I am leaving the world again, and am going to the Father.
Mwen te sòti nan Papa a, e te vini nan lemonn. M ap kite lemonn ankò e ap prale kote Papa a.”
29 His disciples said unto Him, Now indeed Thou speakest plainly, and usest no parable.
Disip Li yo te di: “Alò koulye a W ap pale klè. Ou p ap sèvi ak parabòl.
30 Now we are convinced that Thou knowest all things, and hast no need that any one should ask Thee: by this we believe that Thou camest forth from God.
Koulye a nou konnen ke Ou konnen tout bagay, e pa bezwen moun mande Ou anyen. Akoz sa, nou kwè ke Ou soti nan Bondye.”
31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?
Jésus te reponn yo: “Èske nou kwè koulye a?
32 Behold, the time is coming, and is even now come, that ye shall be dispersed every one his own way, and shall leave me alone: but I am not alone, for the Father is with me.
Veye byen, lè a ap vini, e gen tan vini deja, pou nou vin gaye, chak a pwòp kay li, e pou kite M sèl. Men M p ap sèl, paske Papa a toujou avè M.
33 These things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have trouble: but be of good courage, I have overcome the world.
“Bagay sa yo Mwen pale nou, pou nan Mwen, nou kapab gen lapè. Nan lemonn nou gen tribilasyon, men pran kouraj. Mwen venk lemonn.”
