Jan 12
1 Sis jou anvan fèt Delivrans jwif yo, Jezi tounen Betani kote Laza te rete a. Laza se nonm li te fè leve soti vivan nan lanmò a.
Then six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus raised from the dead.
2 Antan l' te la, yo ofri l' manje. Se Mat ki t'ap sèvi manje a. Laza menm te pami moun ki te chita bò tab la avèk Jezi.
So they prepared a dinner for him there; and Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those reclining at the table with him.
3 Lè sa a, Mari pran yon boutèy demi lit plen yon odè ki fèt ak yon fèy yo rele na. Odè sa a te vann byen chè. Li vide tout odè a sou pye Jezi. Apre sa, li siye yo ak cheve li. Tout kay la te plen sant odè a.
Mary, therefore, took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.
4 Yonn nan disip Jezi yo, sa ki tapral trayi l' la, Jida Iskariòt, di konsa:
Then Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,
5 Poukisa yo pa t' vann odè sa a pou twasan (300) goud? Yo ta bay pòv lajan sa a.
"Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?"
6 Li pa t' di sa paske li te vle fè kichòy vre pou pòv yo, men paske se vòlè li te ye. Se li ki te kenbe kès lajan an, li te konn pran nan sa yo te mete ladan li.
Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.
7 Men, Jezi di li: Kite l' an repo! Kite l' konsève odè sa a pou jou y'a mete kò m' nan kavo a.
But Jesus said, "Leave her alone, that she may keep this for the day of my burial.
8 Kanta pòv yo, n'a toujou genyen yo avè nou. Men mwen menm, nou p'ap genyen m' tout tan.
For you always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me."
9 Yon gwo foul moun vin konnen Jezi te Betani. Y' ale Betani, pa sèlman poutèt Jezi, mentou pou wè Laza Jezi te fè leve soti vivan nan lanmò a.
A large crowd therefore of the Judeans learned that he was there, and they came, not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
10 Lè sa a, chèf prèt yo pran desizyon pou yo touye Laza tou,
But the chief priests plotted to kill Lazarus also,
11 paske, poutèt li, anpil jwif t'ap vire do ba yo, yo t'ap kwè nan Jezi.
because on account of him many of the Jewish people went away and believed in Jesus.
12 Nan denmen, tout foul moun ki te vini pou fèt Delivrans jwif yo te vin konnen Jezi t'ap rive lavil Jerizalèm.
On the next day the large crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
13 Lè sa a, yo koupe fèy palmis, yo soti al kontre li. Yo t'ap plede rele: Lwanj pou Bondye. benediksyon pou moun ki vini nan non Mèt la! Wi, benediksyon pou Wa pèp Izrayèl la.
they took the branches of the palm trees, and went out to meet him, and were shouting, "Hosanna. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel."
14 Jezi te jwenn yon ti bourik. Li moute chita sou li, jan sa te ekri nan Liv la:
And Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,
15 Nou pa bezwen pè, nou menm ki nan lavil Siyon an. Gade, men wa nou an ap vini: Li moute yon jenn ti bourik.
"Do not be afraid, daughter of Zion. Look, your King comes, sitting on a donkey's colt."
16 Disip yo pa t' konprann bagay sa yo lamenm. Men, se jouk apre, lè Jezi te fin moute nan syèl la, yo vin chonje tout bagay sa yo te ekri davans nan Liv la, epi se sa menm ki te rive lè moun yo te fè sa pou li.
His disciples did not understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him.
17 Te gen anpil moun ki te la avèk Jezi lè l' te rele Laza pou l' te fè l' soti nan kavo a, lè l' te fè l' leve soti vivan nan lanmò a. Yo tout t'ap rakonte sa yo te wè.
The crowd therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from the dead, was testifying about it.
18 Se konsa, foul moun yo te vin konnen li te fè mirak sa a. Se poutèt sa yo te vin kontre li.
For this cause also the crowd went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign.
19 Farizyen yo menm, yonn t'ap di lòt: Nou wè. Nou pa ka fè anyen pou anpeche sa. Gade jan tout moun ap swiv li!
The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, "See how you accomplish nothing. Look, the whole world has gone after him."
20 Te gen kèk moun peyi Lagrès nan moun ki te vin Jerizalèm pou adore pandan fèt la.
Now there were certain Greeks among those that went up to worship at the feast.
21 Y' al jwenn Filip (ki te moun Betsayda nan peyi Galile), yo di l' konsa: Msye, nou ta renmen wè Jezi.
These, therefore, came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, "Sir, we want to see Jesus."
22 Filip al di Andre sa. Epi yo tou de al di Jezi sa.
Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Jesus.
23 Jezi reponn yo: Koulye a, lè a rive pou Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a resevwa lwanj ki pou li a.
And Jesus answered them, "The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
24 Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Yon grenn mayi ap rete pou kont li toutotan li pa tonbe atè pou l' mouri. Men tou, si l' mouri, l'ap bay anpil grenn.
Truly, truly, I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone. But if it dies, it bears much fruit.
25 Moun ki renmen lavi l' ap pèdi li. Men moun ki rayi lavi li pandan l' sou latè a, l'ap konsève l' pou lavi ki p'ap janm fini an. (aiōnios g166)
He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it to everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
26 Si yon moun ap sèvi m', se pou l' swiv mwen tou. Konsa, tout kote m'a ye, sèvitè mwen va la tou. Papa m' va leve tèt tout moun k'ap sèvi mwen.
If anyone serves me, let him follow me; and where I am, there will my servant also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.
27 Men koulye a, kè m' boulvèse. Mwen pa konn sa pou m' di. Mwen ta di: Papa, delivre m' anba sa ki pral rive koulye a. Men, se pou sa menm mwen vini, pou m' pase tan soufrans sa a.
"Now my soul is troubled. And what should I say? 'Father, save me from this hour?' But for this cause I came to this hour.
28 Papa o, fè wè pouvwa ou non! Lè sa a, yon vwa soti nan syèl la, li di: Mwen fè wè pouvwa non mwen deja. M'ap fè wè l' ankò.
Father, glorify your name." Then there came a voice out of the sky, saying, "I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again."
29 Foul moun ki te la yo tande vwa a. Yo t'ap di: Se yon kout loraj! Gen lòt ki t'ap di: Se yon zanj Bondye ki pale avèk li.
The crowd therefore, who stood by and heard it, said that it had thundered. Others said, "An angel has spoken to him."
30 Men, Jezi di yo: Se pa pou mwen non vwa a pale, se pou nou menm pou nou ka tande.
Jesus answered, "This voice hasn't come for my sake, but for your sakes.
31 Koulye a, lè a rive pou yo jije moun ki sou tè sa a. Koulye a, yo pral mete chèf k'ap dominen lemonn lan deyò.
Now is the judgment of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.
32 Men mwen menm, lè y'a leve m' anlè sou tè a, mwen gen pou m' rale tout moun vin jwenn mwen.
And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw everyone to myself."
33 (Lè l' di sa, li t'ap moutre yo ki jan li tapral mouri.)
But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
34 Foul moun yo reponn li: Nan Liv lalwa nou an, nou wè Kris la gen pou l' viv pou tout tan. Ki jan ou ka di se pou yo leve Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a anlè? Kilès ki Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a? (aiōn g165)
The crowd answered him, "We have heard out of the law that the Christ remains forever. Then how can you say, 'The Son of Man must be lifted up?' Who is this Son of Man?" (aiōn g165)
35 Jezi reponn yo: Nou gen limyè a la avè nou, men pa pou lontan. Mache pandan nou gen limyè a pou fènwa pa bare nou. Moun k'ap mache nan fènwa pa konnen kote l' prale.
Jesus therefore said to them, "Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness does not overtake you. He who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.
36 Mete konfyans nou nan limyè a pandan nou genyen l' lan, pou nou kapab moun limyè a. Apre li fin di yo pawòl sa yo, Jezi wete kò l', li al kache byen lwen.
While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become children of light." Jesus said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them.
37 Atout li te fè tout mirak sa yo devan yo, yo pa t' kwè nan li.
But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they did not believe in him,
38 Se konsa, pawòl pwofèt Ezayi te di a rive vre: Bondye, kilès ki te kwè mesaj nou te bay la? Ki moun ki te rekonet travay Bondye a nan sa ki rive a?
that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke, "Lord, who has believed our report, and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?"
39 Non. Yo pa t' kapab kwè, paske men sa Ezayi te di ankò:
For this cause they could not believe, for Isaiah said again,
40 Bondye bouche tou de je yo. li fèmen lespri yo, pou yo pa wè nan je yo, pou yo pa konprann ak lespri yo, pou yo pa tounen vin jwenn mwen pou m' ta geri yo.
He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and turn, and I would heal them.
41 Ezayi te di sa paske li te wè pouvwa Jezi, epi li pale sou li.
Isaiah said these things because he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
42 Malgre sa, menm pami chèf jwif yo, anpil moun te kwè nan Jezi. Men, akòz farizyen yo, yo pa t' kite moun wè sa pou yo pa t' mete yo deyò nan sinagòg la.
Nevertheless even of the rulers many believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess it, so that they would not be put out of the synagogue,
43 Yo te pito lwanj ki soti nan men lèzòm pase lwanj ki soti nan men Bondye.
for they loved praise from people more than praise from God.
44 Jezi pale byen fò, li di: Moun ki kwè nan mwen, se pa nan mwen sèlman li kwè, men li kwè nan moun ki voye m' lan tou.
Then Jesus shouted out and said, "Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.
45 Moun ki wè m', li wè moun ki voye m' lan tou.
And he who sees me sees him who sent me.
46 Mwen menm, mwen se limyè sou latè. Tout moun ki kwè nan mwen p'ap rete nan fènwa.
I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
47 Lè yon moun tande pawòl mwen yo, si l' pa kenbe yo, se pa mwen k'ap kondannen li. Paske, mwen vin pou delivre moun, mwen pa vin pou kondannen yo.
And if anyone hears my words and does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 Men, moun ki refize kwè nan mwen, ki pa asepte pawòl mwen yo, li jwenn ak sa k'ap kondannen l' lan: Pawòl mwen te di yo, se yo menm k'ap kondannen l' lè dènye jou a va rive.
He who rejects me, and does not accept my words, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke will judge him on the last day.
49 Se pa pawòl pa m' m'ap pale la a. Men, Papa ki voye m' lan, se li menm ki ban m' lòd sa pou m' di ak sa pou m' pale.
For I spoke not from myself, but the Father who sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
50 Mwen menm, mwen konnen tout kòmandman l' yo bay lavi ki p'ap janm fini an. Se sak fè sa m'ap di a, m'ap di l' jan Papa m' te ban m' lòd la. (aiōnios g166)
I know that his commandment is everlasting life. The things therefore which I speak, even as the Father has said to me, so I speak." (aiōnios g166)
