Travay 21
1 Apre nou fin kite yo, nou pati sou batiman an. Nou fè k'ap tou dwat sou Kòs. Yon jou apre, nou te rive Wòd. Soti la, n' ale Patara.
And when it came to pass that, being parted from them, we set sail, we came with a straight course to Coos, and the day following to Rhodes, and from thence to Patara.
2 La, nou jwenn yon batiman ki tapral peyi Finisi, nou moute abò l' epi nou pati.
And when we had found a ship sailing over to Phenice, we went aboard, and set forth.
3 Nou rive toupre lil Chip. Antan nou nan batiman an, nou te ka wè l' toupre konsa. Men, nou pase anba l' sou bò dwat li, nou fè k'ap pou peyi Siri. Nou fè tè lavil Tir. Batiman an te gen yon pakèt chay pou l' te debake la.
And when we had discovered Cyprus, leaving it on the left hand, we sailed into Syria, and came to Tyre: for there the ship was to unlade her burden.
4 Nou jwenn kèk disip, nou pase sèt jou avèk yo. Lespri Bondye a te avèti yo pou yo te di Pòl pa moute Jerizalèm.
And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who said to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.
5 Lè sèt jou yo te pase, nou pati pou n' al fè wout nou. Tout disip yo, madanm yo ak tout pitit yo te kondi nou jouk andeyò lavil la. Nou tout nou mete ajenou sou rivaj la, nou lapriyè.
And the days being expired, departing we went forward, they all bringing us on our way, with their wives and children, till we were out of the city: and we kneeled down on the shore, and we prayed.
6 Apre sa, nou yonn di lòt orevwa. Nou moute abò, yo menm yo tounen lakay yo.
And when we had bid one another farewell, we took ship; and they returned home.
7 Nou soti lavil Tir nou rive lavil Tolemayis, se la nou fini vwayaj sou lanmè a. N' al di frè ki te la yo bonjou, nou pase yon jou avèk yo.
But we having finished the voyage by sea, from Tyre came down to Ptolemais: and saluting the brethren, we abode one day with them.
8 Nan denmen, nou pati ankò, nou rive lavil Sezare. Nou antre lakay Filip, evanjelis la, nou fè ladesant la. Se te yonn nan sèt mesye yo te chwazi Jerizalèm yo.
And the next day departing, we came to Caesarea. And entering into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, we abode with him.
9 Li te gen kat pitit fi ki pa t' marye, yo t'ap bay mesaj yo te resevwa nan men Bondye.
And he had four daughters, virgins, who did prophesy.
10 Te gen kèk jou depi nou te la lè yon pwofèt yo rele Agabis desann soti nan Jide.
And as we tarried there for some days, there came from Judea a certain prophet, named Agabus.
11 Li vin jwenn nou. Li pran sentiwon ki te nan ren Pòl la, li mare de pye pa l' ak de men pa l' yo, epi li di: Men sa Sentespri deklare: Se konsa jwif Jerizalèm yo pral mare mèt sentiwon sa a; apre sa, y'ap lage l' nan men moun lòt nasyon yo.
Who, when he was come to us, took Paul’s girdle: and binding his own feet and hands, he said: Thus saith the Holy Ghost: The man whose girdle this is, the Jews shall bind in this manner in Jerusalem, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.
12 Lè nou tande sa, nou menm ansanm ak tout moun Sezare yo t'ap di Pòl konsa: Tanpri souple, pa moute Jerizalèm.
Which when we had heard, both we and they that were of that place, desired him that he would not go up to Jerusalem.
13 Men, li reponn nou: Poukisa pou n'ap kriye konsa, pou n'ap chache kraze kouraj mwen konsa? Mwen menm, se pa pare sèlman mwen pare pou m' kite yo mare mwen. Menm si mouri vini, m'ap mouri pou Seyè Jezi nan Jerizalèm.
Then Paul answered, and said: What do you mean weeping and afflicting my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but to die also in Jerusalem, for the name of the Lord Jesus.
14 Lè nou wè nou pa t' kapab chanje lide l', nou pa pèsiste sou sa anko. Nou di: Sa Bondye vle a, se sa k'ap fèt.
And when we could not persuade him, we ceased, saying: The will of the Lord be done.
15 Apre nou fin pase kèk jou la, nou ranje zafè nou, nou pati pou Jerizalèm.
And after those days, being prepared, we went up to Jerusalem.
16 Te gen kèk nan disip lavil Sezare yo ki te al ansanm avèk nou tou. Yo mennen nou lakay Nazon, moun lil Chip, ki te yon disip depi lontan. Se la nou fè ladesant.
And there went also with us some of the disciples from Caesarea, bringing with them one Mnason a Cyprian, an old disciple, with whom we should lodge.
17 Lè nou rive Jerizalèm, frè yo resevwa nou ak kè kontan.
And when we were come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.
18 Nan denmen, Pòl ale lakay Jak ansanm ak nou. Tout chèf reskonsab legliz yo te reyini la.
And the day following, Paul went in with us unto James; and all the ancients were assembled.
19 Pòl di yo bonjou, apre sa li tanmen rakonte yo an detay tou sa Bondye te fè ak travay li nan mitan moun ki pa jwif yo.
Whom when he had saluted, he related particularly what things God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministry.
20 Lè yo fin tande l', yo tout pran fè lwanj Bondye. Apre sa yo di Pòl: Frè nou, ou wè tout kantite jwif ki kwè nan Jezi. Malgre sa, yo tout byen zele pou lalwa a toujou.
But they hearing it, glorified God, and said to him: Thou seest, brother, how many thousands there are among the Jews that have believed: and they are all zealous for the law.
21 Yo vin di yo ki jan ou menm Pòl, w'ap moutre tout jwif k'ap viv nan mitan lòt nasyon yo pou yo kite Lalwa Moyiz la tonbe. W'ap di yo pa sikonsi pitit yo, ni yo pa bezwen swiv koutim jwif yo.
Now they have heard of thee that thou teachest those Jews, who are among the Gentiles, to depart from Moses: saying, that they ought not to circumcise their children, nor walk according to the custom.
22 Sa pou n' fè la a menm? Paske, talè konsa yo pral konnen ou rive isit la.
What is it therefore? the multitude must needs come together: for they will hear that thou art come.
23 Ou pral fè sa nou pral di ou la a: Gen kat moun ki te fè yon ve.
Do therefore this that we say to thee. We have four men, who have a vow on them.
24 Ou pral avèk yo, wa patisipe ansanm ak yo nan tout sèvis y'ap fè pou mete tèt yo nan kondisyon pou sèvi Bondye ankò. Wa fè tout depans pou yo, pou yo kapab fè kale tèt yo. Konsa, tout moun va konnen tou sa yo t'ap di sou ou a pa t' vre. Okontrè, ou menm pou tèt pa ou, ou toujou ap obeyi Lalwa Moyiz la.
Take these, and sanctify thyself with them: and bestow on them, that they may shave their heads: and all will know that the things which they have heard of thee, are false; but that thou thyself also walkest keeping the law.
25 Men, pou moun ki pa jwif yo epi ki kwè nan Jezi koulye a, nou deja ekri yo, nou voye di yo sa n' te deside: piga yo manje vyann bèt ki te ofri pou touye bay zidòl, piga yo manje san, ni vyann bèt ki mouri toufe. Egzante tout dezòd lachè.
But as touching the Gentiles that believe, we have written, decreeing that they should only refrain themselves from that which has been offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangles, and from fornication.
26 Lè sa a, Pòl pran kat mesye yo, epi nan denmen li patisipe avèk yo nan sèvis pou mete yo nan kondisyon pou sèvi Bondye ankò. Apre sa, li al nan tanp lan, li fè konnen ki jou sèvis la va fini, kilè pou yo ofri bèt pou yo touye pou yo chak la.
Then Paul took the men, and the next day being purified with them, entered into the temple, giving notice of the accomplishment of the days of purification, until an oblation should be offered for every one of them.
27 Sèt jou yo te prèt pou fini lè jwif ki soti nan pwovens Lazi yo wè Pòl nan tanp lan. Yo moute tèt foul moun yo, yo mete men sou li.
But when the seven days were drawing to an end, those Jews that were of Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid hands upon him, crying out:
28 Yo t'ap rele: Moun ras Izrayèl yo, pote nou konkou! Men nonm k'ap plede mache toupatou pale mal ak tout moun sou do pèp Izrayèl la, sou do Lalwa Moyiz la, sou do tanp sa a. Koulye a, li penmèt li fè moun ki pa jwif antre nan tanp lan, l'ap lakòz kote nou mete apa pou Bondye a pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
Men of Israel, help: This is the man that teacheth all men every where against the people, and the law, and this place; and moreover hath brought in Gentiles into the temple, and hath violated this holy place.
29 (Yo t'ap di sa, paske yo te wè Twofim, moun lavil Efèz, ansanm ak Pòl nan lavil la. Yo te konprann Pòl te fè l' antre nan tanp lan tou.)
(For they had seen Trophimus the Ephesian in the city with him, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)
30 Tout lavil la te tèt anba, moun kouri soti toupatou. Yo mete men sou Pòl. Yo trennen l' deyò, epi lamenm yo fèmen tout pòt tanp lan.
And the whole city was in an uproar: and the people ran together. And taking Paul, they drew him out of the temple, and immediately the doors were shut.
31 Yo t'ap chache yon jan pou touye Pòl, lè nouvèl la rive nan zòrèy kòmandan batayon women an. Yo te vin di l' ki jan tout lavil la te tèt anba.
And as they went about to kill him, it was told the tribune of the band, That all Jerusalem was in confusion.
32 Lamenm li pran kèk ofisye ak kèk sòlda avèk li, li kouri desann bò kote foul moun yo. Yo menm menm, lè yo wè kòmandan an ak sòlda yo yo sispann bat Pòl.
Who, forthwith taking with him soldiers and centurions, ran down to them. And when they saw the tribune and the soldiers they left off beating Paul.
33 Kòmandan an pwoche bò kot Pòl, li fè yo arete l', li bay lòd pou yo mare l' ak de chenn. Lèfini, li mande ki moun li te ye, kisa l' te fè.
Then the tribune coming near, took him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains: and demanded who he was, and what he had done.
34 Men, nan foul moun yo, yon pati t'ap rele yon bagay, yon lòt pati t'ap rele yon lòt bagay. Sitèlman yo t'ap fè dezòd, kòmandan an pa t' kapab fin konprann sa yo t'ap di a. Lè l' wè sa, li bay lòd pou yo mennen Pòl nan kazèn lan.
And some cried one thing, some another, among the multitude. And when he could not know the certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to be carried into the castle.
35 Lè sòlda yo rive bò eskalye a avèk Pòl, yo te blije leve l' anlè pou yo te sa pase avè l', sitèlman moun yo te ankòlè.
And when he was come to the stairs, it fell out that he was carried by the soldiers, because of the violence of the people.
36 Yo tout yo t'ap swiv li, yo t'ap rele: Touye li.
For the multitude of the people followed after, crying: Away with him.
37 Yo tapral fè Pòl antre nan kazèn lan, lè Pòl di kòmandan an: Eske mwen ka di ou kichòy? Kòmandan an mande li: Kouman? Apa ou pale grèk?
And as Paul was about to be brought into the castle, he saith to the tribune: May speak something to thee? Who said: Canst thou speak Greek?
38 Si se sa, se pa ou menm ki ejipsyen an, nonm ki te kòmanse yon revolisyon tou lòt jou a epi ki te mennen katmil (4.000) bandi avè l' nan dezè a?
Art not thou that Egyptian who before these days didst raise a tumult, and didst lead forth into the desert four thousand men that were murderers?
39 Pòl reponn li: Se jwif mwen ye. Mwen fèt lavil Tas nan peyi Silisi. Ou wè se sitwayen yon gwo lavil mwen ye. Tanpri, kite m' pale ak pèp la.
But Paul said to him: I am a Jew of Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city. And I beseech thee, suffer me to speak to the people.
40 Kòmandan an ba l' pèmisyon. Lè sa a, Pòl kanpe sou eskalye a, li fè pèp la yon siy avèk men li. Lè yo sispann fè bri, Pòl pale ak yo nan lang ebre. Li di yo konsa:
And when he had given him leave, Paul standing on the stairs, beckoned with his hand to the people. And a great silence being made, he spoke unto them in the Hebrew tongue, saying:
