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.
Verily, verily, I say unto you: —He that entereth not, through the door, into the fold of the sheep, but goeth up from another place, that man, is, a thief, and, a robber.
2 Men, moun ki pase nan pòt la, se gadò mouton yo li ye.
But, he that entereth 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.
To him, the porter openeth, and, the sheep, unto his voice, hearken: and, his own sheep, he calleth by name, and leadeth them forth.
4 Lè li fin fè yo tout soti, li mache devan yo; tout mouton yo swiv li paske yo konnen vwa li.
As soon as, all his own, he hath put forth, before them, he moveth on, and, the sheep, follow him, because they know 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.
But, a stranger, will they in nowise follow, but will flee from him, because they know not the voice, of strangers.
6 Jezi di yo parabòl sa a, men yo pa t' konprann sa l' te vle di yo.
This similitude, spake Jesus unto them; but, those men, understood not what the things were which he was speaking unto 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—Verily, verily, I say unto 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 hearkened nor unto 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: through me, if anyone enter, he shall be saved, and shall come in and go out, and, pasture, shall find.
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, cometh not, save that he may thieve and slay and destroy: I, came, that, life, they might have, and, above measure, might have.
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, his life, layeth 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.
The hireling, even because he is no shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, vieweth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, —and, the wolf, seizeth them and scattereth, —
13 Nonm lan met deyò paske se yon djòb l'ap fè. Ki mele l' ak mouton yo?
Because, a hireling, he is, and hath no care for the sheep.
14 -(we vèsè pwochen)
I, am the good shepherd, and know my own, and, my own, know me, —
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.
Just as, the Father, knoweth 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, have I, which are not of this fold: those also, I must needs bring, and, unto my voice, will they hearken, and there shall come to be, One flock, One shepherd.
17 Papa a renmen m', paske m'ap bay lavi m' pou m' ka resevwa l' ankò.
Therefore, doth the Father, love, me, because, I, lay down my life, that, again, I may receive 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, forced it from me, but, I, lay it down, of myself, —Authority, have I, to lay it down, and, authority, have I, again, to receive it: This commandment, received I, from my Father.
19 Te vin gen yon lòt kont nan mitan jwif yo sou pawòl sa yo.
A division, again, took place 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?
But many from among them were saying—A demon, he hath, and is raving, —Why, unto him, do ye hearken?
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 one demonized, —Can, a demon, open the eyes of, the blind?
22 Se te nan mitan sezon fredi. Yo t'ap fete fèt Dedikas la nan lavil Jerizalèm.
The feast of dedication took place at that time, in Jerusalem: 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, surrounded him, and were saying unto him—How long, holdest thou, our lives, in suspense? If, thou, art the Christ, tell us, plainly.
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 ye believe not: The works which, I, am doing in the name of my Father, the same, bear witness concerning me.
26 Men, nou pa kwè paske nou pa fè pati mouton m' yo.
But, ye, believe not, because ye are not of my sheep.
27 Mouton m' yo koute vwa m', mwen konnen yo epi yo swiv mwen.
My sheep, unto my voice, hearken, —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.
What, my Father, hath given me, is, something greater than all, and, no one, can carry off 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.
The Jews again lifted up stones, that they might 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—Many works, have I showed you, noble ones, from my Father: For which of those works are ye stoning 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—Concerning a noble work, are we not stoning thee; but concerning profane speech, —and because, thou, being, a man, art making thyself, 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 written in your law: I, said, Ye are, gods?
35 Nou konnen sa Liv la di, li di l' nèt. Tout moun ki resevwa pawòl Bondye, se bondye yo ye.
If, those, he called gods, unto whom, the word of God, came—and the Scripture cannot 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, hallowed and sent forth into the world, are, ye, saying—Thou speakest profanely, because I said, Son of God, I am?
37 Si m' pa fè travay Papa m' ban m' fè a, nou pa bezwen kwè mwen.
If I am not doing the works of my Father, do not believe in 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.
But, if I am doing them, even though, in me, ye believe not, in the works, believe, —that ye may get to know and go on to know, that the Father is, in me, and, I, am, in the Father.
39 Yo t'ap chache ankò pou yo te arete l', men li chape anba men yo.
They were [therefore] again seeking to take 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 he went away again, beyond the Jordan, unto the place where John was at the first, immersing; and he abode 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 unto him, and were saying—John, indeed, did not so much as, one sign; but, all things, whatsoever John said concerning this one, were, true.
42 Anpil moun la te kwè nan Jezi.
And, many, believed on him there.
