Jan 10
1 Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Moun ki pa pase nan pòt la pou antre nan pak mouton an, men ki eskalade lantouraj la pou antre nan pak la yon lòt kote, moun sa a se yon vòlè, yon piyajè.
“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who is not entering through the door to the fold of the sheep, but is going up from another side, that one is a thief and a robber;
2 Men, moun ki pase nan pòt la, se gadò mouton yo li ye.
and he who is entering through the door is shepherd of the sheep;
3 Moun k'ap veye pòt la louvri l' pou li. Tout mouton yo rekonèt vwa li. Li rele tout mouton l' yo, li ba yo chak non yo, li mennen yo deyò.
the doorkeeper opens to this one, and the sheep hear his voice, and his own sheep he calls by name, and leads them forth;
4 Lè li fin fè yo tout soti, li mache devan yo; tout mouton yo swiv li paske yo konnen vwa li.
and when he may put forth his own sheep, he goes on before them, and the sheep follow him, because they have known his voice;
5 Men, yo p'ap swiv yon moun yo pa konnen. Okontrè, y'ap kouri byen lwen pou li paske yo pa rekonèt vwa li.
and they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, because they have not known the voice of strangers.”
6 Jezi di yo parabòl sa a, men yo pa t' konprann sa l' te vle di yo.
Jesus spoke this allegory to them, and they did not know what the things were that He was speaking to them;
7 Jezi di yo ankò: Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Mwen se pòt pak mouton yo.
Jesus therefore said again to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I AM the door of the sheep;
8 Tout moun ki te vin anvan m' yo, se yon bann vòlè ak piyajè yo te ye. Men, mouton yo pa t' koute yo.
all, as many as came before Me, are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them;
9 Se mwen menm ki pòt la. Moun ki pase nan mwen pou antre, la sove. La antre, la soti, la jwenn manje pou l' manje.
I AM the door, if anyone may come in through Me, he will be saved, and he will come in, and go out, and find pasture.
10 Lè vòlè a vini, se vòlò li vin vòlò, se touye li vin touye, se detwi li vin detwi, se sa ase li vin fè. Mwen menm, mwen vin pou moun ka gen lavi, epi pou yo genyen l' an kantite.
The thief does not come, except that he may steal, and kill, and destroy; I came that they may have life, and may have [it] abundantly.
11 Se mwen menm ki bon gadò mouton yo. Bon gadò a ap bay lavi l' pou mouton l' yo.
I AM the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays His life down for the sheep;
12 Yon nonm k'ap fè yon djòb, se pa yon gadò li ye. Mouton yo pa pou li. Lè l' wè bèt nan bwa ap vini, li kouri kite mouton yo, li met deyò. Lèkonsa, bèt nan bwa a pran mouton yo pote ale, li gaye yo.
and the hired worker, and not being a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, beholds the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and flees; and the wolf snatches them, and scatters the sheep;
13 Nonm lan met deyò paske se yon djòb l'ap fè. Ki mele l' ak mouton yo?
and the hired worker flees because he is a hired worker, and is not caring for the sheep.
14 -(we vèsè pwochen)
I AM the good shepherd, and I know My [sheep], and am known by Mine,
15 Mwen menm, mwen se gadò mouton yo. Papa a konnen m', mwen konn Papa a. Konsa tou, mwen konnen mouton m' yo. Yo menm tou yo konnen mwen.
according as the Father knows Me, and I know the Father, and My life I lay down for the sheep,
16 Mwen gen anpil lòt mouton ki pa nan pak sa a. Mwen gen pou m' mennen yo tou. Y'a tande vwa mwen. Lè sa a, va gen yon sèl bann mouton ak yon sèl gadò.
and other sheep I have that are not of this fold, these also it is necessary for Me to bring, and My voice they will hear, and there will become one flock—one shepherd.
17 Papa a renmen m', paske m'ap bay lavi m' pou m' ka resevwa l' ankò.
Because of this the Father loves Me, because I lay down My life, that again I may take it;
18 Pesonn pa ka wete lavi m', se mwen menm ki bay li paske mwen vle. Mwen gen pouvwa pou m' bay li, mwen gen pouvwa pou m' resevwa l' ankò. Se sa menm Papa a te ban m' lòd fè.
no one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself; authority I have to lay it down, and authority I have again to take it; this command I received from My Father.”
19 Te vin gen yon lòt kont nan mitan jwif yo sou pawòl sa yo.
Therefore, again, there came a division among the Jews, because of these words,
20 Anpil jwif t'ap di: Li gen yon move lespri sou li! Li fou! Sa n' bezwen pèdi tan n' ap koute yon nonm konsa fè?
and many of them said, “He has a demon, and is mad, why do you hear Him?”
21 Gen lòt ki t'ap di: Yon moun ki gen move lespri sou li pa ta pale konsa. Eske move lespri kapab louvri je avèg?
Others said, “These sayings are not those of a demoniac; is a demon able to open blind men’s eyes?”
22 Se te nan mitan sezon fredi. Yo t'ap fete fèt Dedikas la nan lavil Jerizalèm.
And the Dedication in Jerusalem came, and it was winter,
23 Jezi t'ap ale vini anba Galeri Salomon an nan tanp lan.
and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the porch of Solomon,
24 Jwif yo sanble bò kote l', yo di l' konsa: Kilè wa wete nou nan doutans sa a? Si ou se Kris la, di nou sa kare kare.
the Jews, therefore, came around Him and said to Him, “Until when do You hold our soul in suspense? If You are the Christ, tell us freely.”
25 Jezi reponn yo: Mwen deja di nou sa, nou pa vle kwè mwen. Bagay m'ap fè yo, se avèk otorite Papa m' m'ap fè yo. Yo pale pou mwen.
Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe; the works that I do in the Name of My Father, these testify concerning Me;
26 Men, nou pa kwè paske nou pa fè pati mouton m' yo.
but you do not believe, for you are not of My sheep,
27 Mouton m' yo koute vwa m', mwen konnen yo epi yo swiv mwen.
according as I said to you: My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me,
29 Sa Papa m' ban mwen an pi gran pase tout. Pesonn pa ka rache anyen ki nan men Papa a.
My Father, who has given to Me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch out of the hand of My Father;
30 Mwen menm ak Papa m', nou fè yon sèl.
I and the Father are one.”
31 Jwif yo ranmase wòch pou kalonnen li.
Therefore, again, the Jews took up stones that they may stone Him;
32 Lè sa a, Jezi di yo: Avèk pouvwa Papa a mwen fè anpil bon bagay nan mitan nou. Manyè di m' pou kilès ladan yo nou vle touye m' ak kout wòch la?
Jesus answered them, “I showed you many good works from My Father; because of which work of them do you stone Me?”
33 Jwif yo reponn li: Se pa pou okenn bon bagay nou vle touye ou ak kout wòch. Men, se paske w'ap pale mal sou Bondye. Se moun ou ye, epi w'ap chache pase pou Bondye.
The Jews answered Him, saying, “We do not stone You for a good work, but for slander, and because You, being a man, make Yourself God.”
34 Jezi reponn yo: Dapre sa ki ekri nan lalwa nou an, Bondye te di: Se bondye nou ye.
Jesus answered them, “Is it not having been written in your law: I said, you are gods?
35 Nou konnen sa Liv la di, li di l' nèt. Tout moun ki resevwa pawòl Bondye, se bondye yo ye.
If He called them gods to whom the word of God came (and the Writing is not able to be broken),
36 Mwen menm menm, se Bondye ki te mete m' apa pou li, se li ki voye m' sou latè. Ki jan nou ka di m'ap pale Bondye mal lè m' di se pitit Bondye mwen ye?
of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, do you say—You slander, because I said, I am [the] Son of God?
37 Si m' pa fè travay Papa m' ban m' fè a, nou pa bezwen kwè mwen.
If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me;
38 Men, si mwen fè l', menm si nou pa ta vle kwè nan mwen, omwens kwè nan travay m'ap fè a. Konsa, nou ta tou konnen Papa a nan mwen, mwen nan Papa a.
and if I do, even if you may not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and may believe that the Father [is] in Me, and I in Him.”
39 Yo t'ap chache ankò pou yo te arete l', men li chape anba men yo.
Therefore they were seeking again to seize Him, and He went forth out of their hand,
40 Jezi tounen ankò lòt bò larivyè Jouden kote Jan te konn batize a. Li rete la.
and went away again to the other side of the Jordan, to the place where John was at first immersing, and remained there,
41 Anpil moun te vin jwenn li. Yo t'ap di: Jan pa t' fè okenn mirak, men tou sa li te di nou sou nonm sa a, se te vre wi.
and many came to Him and said, “John, indeed, did no sign, and all things, as many as John said about this One were true”;
42 Anpil moun la te kwè nan Jezi.
and many believed in Him there.
