< Jan 8 >

1 Jezi menm ale mòn Oliv.
And Jesus went unto mount Olivet.
2 Nan denmen maten, byen bonè, li tounen nan tanp lan. Tout foul moun yo pwoche bò kote li. Li chita, li pran moutre yo anpil bagay.
And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him, and sitting down he taught them.
3 Dirèktè lalwa yo ak farizyen yo mennen yon fanm ba li. Yo te bare fanm lan nan adiltè. Yo mete l' kanpe devan tout foul moun yo,
And the scribes and the Pharisees bring unto him a woman taken in adultery: and they set her in the midst,
4 epi yo di Jezi konsa: Mèt, yo kenbe fanm sa a nan men ap fè adiltè.
And said to him: Master, this woman was even now taken in adultery.
5 Moyiz te bay lòd nan lalwa a pou yo touye yo lè konsa ak kout wòch. Men, ou menm, kisa ou di nan sa?
Now Moses in the law commanded us to stone such a one. But what sayest thou?
6 Yo t'ap di sa, paske yo te vle pran l' nan pèlen pou yo te ka akize li. Men, Jezi bese atè. Epi, avèk dwèt li, li kòmanse ekri atè a.
And this they said tempting him, that they might accuse him. But Jesus bowing himself down, wrote with his finger on the ground.
7 Men, moun yo t'ap kouvri l' ak keksyon. Jezi leve atè a, li di yo: Se pou moun ki konnen li pa janm peche a ba l' premye kout wòch la.
When therefore they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said to them: He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 Apre sa, li bese atè a yon dezyèm fwa, li pran ekri ankò.
And again stooping down, he wrote on the ground.
9 Lè yo tande pawòl sa yo, yonn apre lòt y' al fè wout yo. Premye moun ki te mete deyò se te sak te pi granmoun yo. Jezi rete pou kont li ak fanm lan ki te kanpe devan l'.
But they hearing this, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest. And Jesus alone remained, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 Lè sa a, li leve, li di fanm lan: Madanm, kote moun yo? Pesonn pa kondannen ou?
Then Jesus lifting up himself, said to her: Woman, where are they that accused thee? Hath no man condemned thee?
11 Li reponn: Pesonn non, Mèt. Jezi di li: Mwen menm tou, mwen pa kondannen ou. Ou mèt ale. Men, pa janm fè peche ankò.
Who said: No man, Lord. And Jesus said: Neither will I condemn thee. Go, and now sin no more.
12 Jezi pale ankò ak foul moun yo, li di: Se mwen menm ki limyè k'ap klere tout moun ki sou latè. Moun ki swiv mwen va gen limyè ki bay lavi a. Yo p'ap janm mache nan fènwa.
Again therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying: I am the light of the world: he that followeth me, walketh not in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
13 Farizyen yo di li: Apa w'ap pale tèt pa ou byen? Sa w'ap di la a pa gen valè.
The Pharisees therefore said to him: Thou givest testimony of thyself: thy testimony is not true.
14 Jezi reponn yo: Menm si mwen t'ap pale tèt mwen byen, sa m'ap di a se verite, paske mwen konnen ki bò m' soti, mwen konnen ki bò m' prale. Men, nou menm, nou pa konnen ni ki bò m' soti, ni ki bò m' prale.
Jesus answered, and said to them: Although I give testimony of myself, my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go: but you know not whence I come, or whither I go.
15 Nou menm, n'ap jije tankou lèzòm jije. Men, mwen menm mwen pa jije pesonn.
You judge according to the flesh: I judge not any man.
16 Mentou, si yon lè mwen gen pou m' jije, m'ap jije byen dapre verite a, paske mwen p'ap jije pou kont mwen. Papa ki voye m' lan ap la avèk mwen.
And if I do judge, my judgment is true: because I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
17 Nou jwenn sa ekri nan Lalwa nou an tou: Lè de temwen fè menm depozisyon an, sa yo di a vre.
And in your law it is written, that the testimony of two men is true.
18 Mwen sèvi temwen pou tèt pa m'; Papa a ki voye m' lan sèvi m' temwen tou.
I am one that give testimony of myself: and the Father that sent me giveth testimony of me.
19 Yo mande li: Kote papa ou? Jezi reponn yo: Nou pa konnen mwen, nou pa konn Papa mwen. Si nou te konnen m', nou ta konnen Papa m' tou.
They said therefore to him: Where is thy Father? Jesus answered: Neither me do you know, nor my Father: if you did know me, perhaps you would know my Father also.
20 Jezi te nan tanp lan, kote yo mete bwat pou fè ofrann yo. Se la li t'ap di yo tout pawòl sa yo, li t'ap moutre moun yo anpil lòt bagay ankò. Men, pesonn pa t' mete men sou li, paske lè l' pa t' ankò rive.
These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, teaching in the temple: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
21 Jezi di yo ankò: Mwen pral fè wout mwen. N'a chache m', men n'a mouri nan peche nou yo. Nou pa ka ale kote m' prale a.
Again therefore Jesus said to them: I go, and you shall seek me, and you shall die in your sin. Whither I go, you cannot come.
22 Jwif yo yonn di lòt: Gen lè li pral touye tèt li? Tande sa l'ap di: Nou pa ka ale kote l' prale a.
The Jews therefore said: Will he kill himself, because he said: Whither I go, you cannot come?
23 Jezi reponn yo: Nou soti anba, mwen menm mwen soti anwo. Nou se moun tè sa a, mwen menm mwen pa moun tè sa a.
And he said to them: You are from beneath, I am from above. You are of this world, I am not of this world.
24 Se poutèt sa mwen di nou, n'ap mouri nan peche nou. Wi, nou gen pou n' mouri nan peche nou si nou pa kwè mwen se moun mwen ye a.
Therefore I said to you, that you shall die in your sins. For if you believe not that I am he, you shall die in your sin.
25 Yo mande li: Ki moun ou ye? Jezi reponn yo: Sa m' te di nou depi nan konmansman an.
They said therefore to him: Who art thou? Jesus said to them: The beginning, who also speak unto you.
26 Mwen gen anpil bagay pou m' di sou nou, anpil bagay menm pou m' jije nan nou. Men, moun ki voye m' lan, se verite ase li di. Se sèlman sa m' pran nan bouch li m'ap anonse bay lèzòm ki sou latè.
Many things I have to speak and to judge of you. But he that sent me, is true: and the things I have heard of him, these same I speak in the world.
27 Yo pa t' konprann se sou Papa a li t'ap pale yo.
And they understood not, that he called God his Father.
28 Jezi di yo ankò: Lè n'a leve Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a byen wo, n'a konnen se mwen menmm ki li menm. Lè sa a, n'a konnen mwen pa fè anyen pou kont mwen. Se sèlman sa Papa a moutre m' mwen di.
Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know, that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak:
29 Moun ki voye m' lan la avèk mwen. Li pa kite m' pou kont mwen paske mwen toujou fè sak fè l' plezi.
And he that sent me, is with me, and he hath not left me alone: for I do always the things that please him.
30 Anpil moun ki te tande Jezi pale konsa te kwè nan li.
When he spoke these things, many believed in him.
31 Jezi di jwif ki te kwè nan li yo: Si nou kenbe pawòl mwen yo nan kè nou, nou se disip mwen vre.
Then Jesus said to those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.
32 N'a konnen verite a, lè sa a verite a va ban nou libète nou.
And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 Yo di li: Nou se pitit pitit Abraram. Nou pa janm esklav pesonn. Ki jan ou ka fè di nou: N'a gen libète nou?
They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?
34 Jezi reponn yo: Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Tout moun ki fè peche, se esklav peche yo ye.
Jesus answered them: Amen, amen I say unto you: that whosoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin.
35 Yon esklav pa fè pati moun kay la pou tout tan. Men, yon pitit fè pati moun kay la pou tout tan. (aiōn g165)
Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the son abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
36 Si Pitit Bondye a ban nou libète, n'a lib tout bon.
If therefore the son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.
37 Wi, mwen konnen se pitit pitit Abraram nou ye vre. Men, n'ap chache touye m' paske nou pa asepte sa m'ap moutre nou.
I know that you are the children of Abraham: but you seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
38 M'ap di nou sa Papa m' moutre mwen. Men nou menm, n'ap fè sa papa pa nou di nou fè.
I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do the things that you have seen with your father.
39 Yo reponn li: Men, papa nou se Abraram. Jezi di yo: Si nou te pitit Abraram tout bon, nou ta fè sa li menm li te fè.
They answered, and said to him: Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them: If you be the children of Abraham, do the works of Abraham.
40 Gade koulye a, m'ap di nou verite a jan Bondye te moutre m' li, atousa n'ap chache touye mwen. Abraram pa janm fè bagay konsa.
But now you seek to kill me, a man who have spoken the truth to you, which I have heard of God. This Abraham did not.
41 Men nou menm, n'ap fè sa papa nou ap fè. Yo reponn li: Nou pa pitit deyò non. Nou gen yon sèl papa, se Bondye.
You do the works of your father. They said therefore to him: We are not born of fornication: we have one Father, even God.
42 Jezi di yo: Si Bondye te papa nou vre, nou ta renmen mwen. Paske, mwen soti bò kot Bondye. Se li menm ki voye m' isit la. Mwen pa vini pou kont mwen. Se li menm menm ki voye mwen.
Jesus therefore said to them: If God were your Father, you would indeed love me. For from God I proceeded, and came; for I came not of myself, but he sent me:
43 Poukisa nou pa konprann sa m'ap di nou la a? Paske nou pa kapab tande pawòl mwen yo.
Why do you not know my speech? Because you cannot hear my word.
44 Se Satan ki papa nou. Se sak fè nou vle fè sa papa nou vle. Depi nan konmansman se sa ase l'ap fè: touye moun. Li pa janm pran pozisyon pou verite a paske pa gen verite menm nan li. Depi l' louvri bouch li, se manti l'ap bay paske sè mantò li ye. Se papa nan bay manti li ye.
You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and he stood not in the truth; because truth is not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.
45 Men mwen menm, mwen pale verite a. Se poutèt sa nou pa vle kwè mwen.
But if I say the truth, you believe me not.
46 Kilès nan nou ki ka bay prèv mwen fè peche? Si sa m' di a se vre, poukisa nou pa kwè mwen?
Which of you shall convince me of sin? If I say the truth to you, why do you not believe me?
47 Tout moun ki moun Bondye, yo koute pawòl Bondye. Men nou menm, nou pa moun Bondye. Se sak fè nou pa vle koute.
He that is of God, heareth the words of God. Therefore you hear them not, because you are not of God.
48 Jwif yo reponn li: Nou te gen rezon lè n' t'ap di se moun Samari ou ye. Ou gen yon move lespri sou ou.
The Jews therefore answered, and said to him: Do not we say well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
49 Jezi di yo: Mwen pa gen okenn move lespri sou mwen. M'ap fè respe Papa mwen. Men nou menm, se derespekte n'ap derespekte mwen.
Jesus answered: I have not a devil: but I honour my Father, and you have dishonoured me.
50 Mwen p'ap chache lwanj pou tèt pa mwen. Gen yon moun k'ap chache l' pou mwen. Se li menm tou k'ap jije nou.
But I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
51 Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: moun ki fè tou sa mwen di l' fè, li p'ap janm mouri. (aiōn g165)
Amen, amen I say to you: If any man keep my word, he shall not see death for ever. (aiōn g165)
52 Jwif yo di li: Koulye a, nou sèten ou gen yon move lespri sou ou. Abraram mouri. Pwofèt yo mouri tou. Epi ou menm, w'ap di: O wi, moun ki fè tou sa m' di l' fè, li p'ap janm mouri. (aiōn g165)
The Jews therefore said: Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest: If any man keep my word, he shall not taste death for ever. (aiōn g165)
53 Abraram ki Abraram zansèt nou, li mouri. Koulye a, ou prèt pou di nou ou pi gran pase li? Pwofèt ki pwofèt yo mouri. Sa ou konprann ou ye menm?
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead. Whom dost thou make thyself?
54 Jezi reponn yo: Si m' t'ap fè lwanj tèt mwen, lwanj sa a pa ta vo anyen. Moun k'ap fè lwanj mwen se Papa m', moun nou pretann di ki Bondye nou an.
Jesus answered: If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father that glorifieth me, of whom you say that he is your God.
55 Nou pa konnen li. Men mwen menm, mwen konnen li. Si pou m' ta di mwen pa konnen li, mwen ta bay manti tankou nou. Men, mwen konnen l' epi m'ap fè tou sa li di m' fè.
And you have not known him, but I know him. And if I shall say that I know him not, I shall be like to you, a liar. But I do know him, and do keep his word.
56 Abraram papa nou te kontan, paske li te anvi wè jou m' lan rive. Li wè li. Sa te fè kè l' kontan nèt.
Abraham your father rejoiced that he might see my day: he saw it, and was glad.
57 Jwif yo di li: Ou poko gen senkantan, epi w'ap di ou te wè Abraram?
The Jews therefore said to him: Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Jezi reponn yo: Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Abraram pa t' ankò fèt, mwen menm, mwen te la deja.
Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say to you, before Abraham was made, I am.
59 Lè sa a, yo ranmase wòch pou kalonnen li. Men, Jezi kache kò l' yon kote epi li soti nan tanp lan.
They took up stones therefore to cast at him. But Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.
