< Jan 4 >

1 Farizyen yo tande Jezi t'ap fè plis patizan pase Jan, li t'ap batize plis moun pase l' tou.
Therefore when the Lord knew, the pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2 (Men, pou di vre, Jezi pa t' janm batize pesonn. Se disip li yo ki t'ap batize.)
(though Jesus Himself did not baptize, but his disciples, )
3 Lè Jezi vin konn sa, li kite peyi Jide, li tounen nan peyi Galile.
He left Judea, and departed again into Galilee.
4 Sou wout la, fòk li te pase nan mitan peyi Samari.
And as He must pass through the country of Samaria, He came to a Samaritan city called Sichar,
5 Li rive nan yon bouk Samari yo rele Sika, toupre moso tè Jakòb te bay Jozèf, pitit gason l' lan.
near the piece of ground which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Se la pi Jakòb la te ye. Jezi menm te bouke, vwayaj la te fatige l' anpil. Li chita sou rebò pi a. Li te bò midi konsa.
And Jacob's well was there. Now Jesus was tired with his journey, and sat down at the well: and it was about the sixth hour of the day,
7 Yon fanm peyi Samari vin pou tire dlo. Jezi di l' konsa: Tanpri, ban m' ti gout dlo pou m' bwè.
when a woman of Samaria coming to draw water, Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
8 (Disip li yo te ale lavil la achte manje.)
(For his disciples were gone away to the city to buy food.)
9 Fanm Samari a di Jezi konsa: Kouman? Se pa jwif ou ye? Ki jan ou fè mande m' dlo pou ou bwè, mwen menm ki moun Samari? (Paske, jwif yo pa t' gen rapò ak moun Samari.)
But the Samaritan saith unto Him, How is it that thou who art a Jew askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan? for the Jews have no friendly intercourse with the Samaritans.
10 Jezi reponn li: Si ou te konnen sa Bondye bay la, si ou te konnen ki moun k'ap mande ou ti gout dlo pou bwè a, se ou menm ki ta mande l' ba ou ti gout dlo bwè. Lè sa a, li ta ka ba ou nan dlo ki bay lavi a.
Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith unto thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldst have asked of Him, and He would have given thee living water.
11 Fanm lan di li: Msye, ou pa gen veso pou tire dlo. Epitou, pi a fon anpil. Ki bò pou ou ta jwenn dlo ki bay lavi sa a?
The woman saith unto Him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: whence then hast thou the living water?
12 Se Jakòb, zansèt nou, ki te ban nou pi sa a. Li te bwè ladan li. Tout pitit li yo ansanm ak tout bèt li yo, se la yo te bwè tou. Koulye a, ou prèt pou di m' ou pi gran pase Jakòb?
Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, and his children, and his cattle?
13 Jezi reponn li: Tout moun ki bwè dlo sa a gen pou l' swaf dlo ankò.
Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water, will thirst again;
14 Men, moun ki va bwè nan dlo m'ap ba li a, li p'ap janm swaf dlo ankò. Paske, dlo m'ap ba li a ap tounen yon sous dlo nan li k'ap ba li lavi ki p'ap janm fini an. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
but he that drinketh of the water which I shall give him, shall never thirst: but the water, which I shall give him, will be in him a fountain of water springing up unto eternal life. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
15 Fanm lan di l': Tanpri, msye, ban m' ti gout nan dlo sa a non pou m' bwè, konsa mwen p'ap janm anvi bwè dlo ankò, mwen p'ap bezwen tounen isit la vin tire dlo.
The woman saith unto Him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.
16 Jezi di l' konsa: Ale rele mari ou. Apre sa, tounen vin jwenn mwen isit la.
Jesus saith unto her, Go call thine husband, and come hither.
17 Fanmi lan reponn: Mwen pa gen mari. Jezi di l' konsa: Ou gen rezon di ou pa gen mari.
The woman answered, I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her, Thou hast said right, I have no husband:
18 Paske, ou pase senk mari deja. Epi nonm k'ap viv avè ou koulye a, se pa mari ou li ye. Ou pa ban m' manti.
for thou hast had five husbands; and he, whom thou now hast, is not thy husband: this thou hast said true.
19 Lè sa a, fanm lan di l': Gen lè ou se yon pwofèt, msye?
The woman saith unto Him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20 Zansèt nou yo nan peyi Samari te sèvi Bondye sou mòn sa a. Men nou menm jwif, nou di: Sèl kote pou moun sèvi Bondye, se lavil Jerizalèm.
Our fathers worshipped on this mountain, and ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Jezi reponn li: Madanm, ou mèt kwè mwen. Lè a pral rive, se pa ni sou mòn sa a, ni lavil Jerizalèm pou n' sèvi Papa a.
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the time is coming, when ye shall worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
22 Nou menm, moun Samari, nou pa konnen sa n'ap sèvi a. Nou menm jwif, nou konnen sa n'ap sèvi a, paske moun k'ap vin pou sove a, se nan mitan jwif yo l'ap soti.
Ye worship ye know not what; but we worship what we know: for salvation is from the Jews.
23 Men, lè a ap rive, li rive deja: tout moun k'ap sèvi tout bon yo pral sèvi Papa a nan kè yo jan sa dwe fèt. Se moun konsa Bondye vle pou sèvi li.
But the time is coming, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for the Father requireth such worshippers of Him.
24 Bondye, se Lespri li ye. Tout moun k'ap sèvi l', se pou yo sèvi l' nan lespri yo jan sa dwe fèt la.
God is a spirit, and they that worship Him, must worship in spirit and truth.
25 Fanm lan di li: Mwen konnen Mesi a, moun yo rele Kris la, gen pou l' vini tou. Lè la vini, la esplike nou tout bagay sa yo.
Then saith the woman unto Him, I know that the Messiah, that is to say the Christ, is coming; and when He comes, He will tell us all things.
26 Jezi reponn li: Mwen menm k'ap pale avè ou la a, mwen se Kris la.
Jesus saith unto her, I, who am talking to thee, am He.
27 Lè sa a, disip Jezi yo vin rive. Yo te sezi wè l' ap pale ak yon fanm. Men, yo yonn pa mande l': Kisa ou gen avèk li? Osinon: Poukisa w'ap pale avè li?
And upon this came his disciples and wondered that He talked with the woman: (though none of them said, What dost thou seek? or, Why dost thou talk with her?)
28 Fanm lan menm kite krich dlo a la, li tounen li al lavil la. Li di moun yo:
therefore the woman left her water-pot, and went away into the city,
29 Vini wè yon nonm ki di m' tou sa m' fè. Eske nou pa kwè se Kris la?
and saith to the people, Come, see a man who hath told me all that ever I did; is not this the Christ?
30 Moun yo soti lavil la, yo vin jwenn Jezi.
They therefore went out of the city, and came to Him.
31 Disip yo menm, bò pa yo, t'ap mande Jezi pou l' manje. Yo t'ap di l': Tanpri, Mèt, manje kichòy non!
In the mean time his disciples addressed Him, saying, Master, eat.
32 Men, li reponn yo: Mwen gen pou m' manje yon manje nou pa konnen.
But He said unto them, I have food to eat, which ye know not of.
33 Lè sa a, disip yo yonn pran mande lòt: Gen lè yon moun pote manje ba li.
Therefore the disciples said one to another, Hath any one brought Him aught to eat?
34 Jezi di yo: Manje pa m', se fè volonte moun ki voye m' lan; se pou m' fin fè travay li ban m' fè a.
Jesus saith unto them, My food is to do the will of Him that sent me, and to finish his work.
35 Nou menm, nou di: Nan kat mwa ankò nou pral fè rekòt. Mwen menm, mwen di nou: Gade jaden yo byen. Grenn yo fin mi, yo tou bon pou ranmase.
Do not ye say, it is yet four months, and then cometh harvest? Behold, lift up your eyes, and see the fields, they are already white for harvest.
36 Yo gen tan peye moun k'ap ranmase rekòt la, l'ap anpile grenn yo pou lavi ki p'ap janm fini an. Se konsa, moun k'ap simen an kontan; moun k'ap ranmase a kontan tou ansanm avèk li. (aiōnios g166)
And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth the fruit together unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together; (aiōnios g166)
37 Sa pawòl la di a, se vre wi: Moun ki simen an, se pa li ki ranmase.
for herein the saying is verified, that one soweth, and another reapeth,
38 Mwen voye nou ranmase nan yon jaden nou pa t' travay. Se lòt moun ki te travay li. Men, se nou menm k'ap pwofite travay yo.
in as much as I have sent you to reap that on which ye have not laboured: others have laboured, and ye are entered into their labors.
39 Anpil moun Samari ki te rete nan Sika te kwè nan Jezi poutèt sa madanm lan te di yo: Li di m' tou sa m' fè.
And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on Him, because of what the woman said, testifying, He told me all that ever I did.
40 Se konsa, lè yo rive bò kote li, yo mande l' pou l' rete avèk yo. Jezi pase de jou nan lavil la.
Therefore when the Samaritans came to Him, they desired Him to stay with them: and He staid there two days.
41 Te gen anpil lòt moun ankò ki te kwè nan li, poutèt sa Jezi menm t'ap di yo.
And many more believed on account of his own discourse:
42 Yo di fanm lan konsa: Koulye a nou kwè, se pa sèlman poutèt sa ou rakonte nou an, men tou paske nou tande l' nou menm ak de zòrèy nou. Nou konnen se li menm vre ki vin delivre moun sou latè.
and said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of what thou hast spoken; for we ourselves have heard Him, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.
43 Lè Jezi fin pase de jou sa yo la, li pati, li ale nan peyi Galile.
And after two days he departed thence, and went into Cana of Galilee.
44 Paske, se Jezi menm ki te di: Yo pa janm respekte yon pwofèt nan peyi kote l' soti.
For Jesus himself had testified that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.
45 Lè li rive nan Galile, moun Galile yo te byen resevwa l', paske yo menm tou yo te al lavil Jerizalèm pou fèt Delivrans lan, yo te wè tou sa li te fè lè sa a.
And when He was come into Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all that he did in Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went to the feast.
46 Apre sa, Jezi tounen vin Kana nan Galile, kote li te fè dlo tounen diven an. Nan lavil la te gen yon gwo fonksyonè leta ki te gen yon pitit gason l' ki te malad nan yon lòt lavil yo rele Kapènawòm.
Therefore Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where He had made the water wine.
47 Lè li vin konnen Jezi te soti peyi Jide vin nan peyi Galile, li al jwenn li, li mande l' pou li al Kapènawòm geri pitit li a ki te prèt pou mouri.
And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum: who, when he heard that Jesus was come out of Judea into Galilee, went to Him, and intreated Him, that he would come down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.
48 Jezi di l' konsa: Si nou pa wè mirak ak bèl bagay, nou p'ap janm kwè.
Jesus therefore said unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders ye will not believe.
49 Fonksyonè a reponn li: Mèt, vin avè m' non, anvan pitit mwen an gen tan mouri.
The nobleman saith unto Him, Lord, come down before my child die.
50 Jezi di li: Ou mèt al lakay ou. Pitit ou a p'ap mouri. Nonm lan kwè sa Jezi te di l' la, li ale.
Jesus saith unto him, Go, thy son is well. And the man believed what Jesus said unto him, and went his way.
51 Li te sou wout lakay li toujou lè domestik li yo vin jwenn li avèk nouvèl sa a: Pitit ou a pa mouri.
And as he was now going down, his servants met him and told him, saying, Thy son is well.
52 Li mande yo: Kilè ti gason an refè? Yo reponn li: Yè apremidi, bò enè konsa, lafyèb la tonbe.
He inquired therefore of them the hour in which he grew better: and they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
53 Papa a vin rekonèt se te lè sa a menm Jezi te di l': Pitit gason ou lan p'ap mouri. Se konsa li menm ansanm ak tout moun lakay li yo kwè nan Jezi.
So the father knew that it was in that same hour, in which Jesus said to him, Thy son is well. And he and his whole family believed.
54 Sa te fè dezyèm mirak Jezi te fè lè l' tounen soti Jide vini nan peyi Galile.
This is the second miracle that Jesus wrought, upon coming out of Judea into Galilee.
