Lik 13
1 Lè sa a, yo vin rakonte Jezi ki jan, pandan yon sèvis yo t'ap fè, Pilat te fè touye kèk moun peyi Galile a, epi li fè melanje san yo ak san bèt yo t'ap ofri bay Bondye.
Now there were present some, in that very season, bringing tidings to him, concerning the Galilaeans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
2 Jezi reponn yo: Gen lè nou kwè se paske moun sa yo te fè pi gwo peche pase lòt moun Galile yo kifè yo te masakre yo konsa?
And, answering, he said unto them—Suppose ye, that, these Galilaeans, had become, sinners beyond all the Galilaeans, because, these things, they have suffered?
3 Mwen di nou: Non. Men, si nou menm nou pa tounen vin jwenn Bondye, nou tout n'ap peri menm jan an tou.
Nay! I tell you, but, except ye repent, ye, all, in like manner, shall perish.
4 Dizwit moun ki te mouri kraze lè gwo kay Siloe a te tonbe sou yo a, gen lè nou kwè yo te pi koupab pase tout lòt moun nan lavil Jerizalèm yo?
Or, those eighteen, upon whom fell the tower in Siloam, and slew them, suppose ye that, they, had become, debtors, beyond all the men who were dwelling in Jerusalem?
5 Mwen di nou: Non. Men, si nou menm nou pa tounen vin jwenn Bondye, nou tout n'ap peri menm jan an tou.
Nay! I tell you, but, except ye repent, ye, all, in the same way, shall perish.
6 Apre sa, Jezi di yo parabòl sa a: Yon nonm te gen yon pye fig frans plante nan jaden rezen li. Li vin chache fig frans ladan l', men li pa jwenn.
And he went on to speak this parable: —A certain man had, a fig-tree, planted in his vineyard, and he canto seeking fruit therein, and found none.
7 Lè sa a, li di jeran jaden an: Sa fè twazan depi m'ap vin chache fig nan pye fig frans sa a, mwen pa ka jwenn anyen. Koupe li non. Poukisa pou l' pran tout plas sa a nan tè a pou gremesi?
And he said unto the vine-dresser—Lo! three years, I come, seeking fruit in this fig-tree, and find none. Cut it down! Why doth it make, even the round useless?
8 Men, jeran an reponn li: Mèt, kite l' fè lanne sa a ankò. Mwen pral fouye yon twou fè wonn nan pye l', m'ap mete fimye ladan li.
And, he, answering, saith unto him—Sir! let it alone this year also, until such time as I dig about it, and throw in manure, —
9 Konsa, li ka donnen. Si l' pa donnen, wa fè koupe l' lòt lanne.
and if it may bear fruit for the future; …but, otherwise, certainly, thou shalt cut it down.
10 Yon jou repo, Jezi t'ap moutre moun yo anpil bagay nan yon sinagòg.
And he was teaching in one of the synagogues, on the Sabbath.
11 Te gen yon fanm nan sinagòg la ki te malad. Depi dizwitan li te gen yon move lespri sou li ki te fè l' rete kokobe; li pa t' kapab kanpe dwat menm.
And lo! a woman, having a spirit of weakness eighteen years, —and was bowed together, and unable to lift herself up, at all.
12 Lè Jezi wè l', li rele l', li di li: Mafi, ou delivre anba enfimite ou la tande.
And, seeing her, Jesus called her and said to her—Woman! thou art loosed from thy weakness, —
13 Jezi lonje men l' sou li. Latou fanm lan kanpe dwat, li pran fè lwanj Bondye.
and laid on her his hands; and, instantly, she was made straight again, and began glorifying God.
14 Men, chèf sinagòg la pa t' kontan menm paske Jezi te fè gerizon an yon jou repo. Li pran lapawòl, li di foul la: Nou gen sis jou pou nou travay, vin fè yo geri nou jou sa yo. Pa vini jou repo a.
But the synagogue-ruler, answering, being greatly displeased that, on the Sabbath, Jesus had healed, began saying unto the multitude—Six days, there are, in which men ought to get their work done; On them, therefore, come and be healed, and, not on the day of rest.
15 Jezi reponn li: Ala ou ipokrit! Jou repo a, nou tout nou lage bèf nou ak bourik nou nan kay kote nou gade yo a, nou mennen yo al bwè dlo, pa vre?
The Lord answered him, and said—Hypocrites! Doth not, each one of you, on the Sabbath, loose his ox or ass from the manger, and, leading it away, give it drink?
16 Bon, fanm sa a, moun ras Abraram, ki gen dizwitan depi Satan mare l' anba yon maladi, mwen pa t' dwe delivre l' yon jou repo?
But, this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound, lo! eighteen years, was there not a needs-be that she should be loosed from this bond, on the day of rest?
17 Repons Jezi te ba yo a te fè tout moun ki pa t' vle wè l' yo wont. Men, tout moun nan foul la te kontan pou tout bèl mèvèy li t'ap fè yo.
And, as he was saying, these, things, all who had been setting themselves against him were being put to shame; and, all the multitude, were rejoicing over all the glorious things which were being brought to pass by him.
18 Jezi di yo: Ak ki bagay peyi kote Bondye Wa a sanble? Kisa m' ta di l' sanble ankò?
He went on to say, therefore—Whereunto, is the kingdom of God, like? And, whereunto, shall I liken it?
19 Li tankou yon ti grenn moutad yon nonm pran pou li al simen nan jaden li. Li pouse, li vin yon pyebwa. Se konsa zwezo nan syèl la fè nich nan branch li yo.
It is, like, unto a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and cast into his own garden; and it grew, and became a tree, and, the birds of heaven, lodged amongst its branches.
20 Jezi di yo ankò: Ak kisa pou m' konpare peyi kote Bondye Wa a?
And, again, he said—Whereunto, shall I liken the kingdom of God?
21 Li tankou ledven yon fanm pran li mete nan twa mezi farin pou fè tout pa t' la leve.
It is, like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, until, the whole, was leavened.
22 Jezi t'ap moute lavil Jerizalèm, li t'ap pase nan anpil lavil ak anpil bouk. Sou tout wout la, li t'ap moutre moun yo anpil bagay.
And he was journeying on, city by city and village by village, and making, progress, unto Jerusalem.
23 Yon moun mande li: Mèt, èske se de twa moun sèlman k'ap sove? Li reponn yo:
And one said unto him—Lord! are they, few, who are being saved? And, he, said unto them—
24 Fè jefò pou n' antre nan pòt jis la; paske, m'ap di nou sa, anpil moun va seye antre, yo p'ap kapab.
Be striving to enter through the narrow door; for, many, I say unto you, will seek to enter, and will not be able, —
25 Mèt kay la gen pou l' leve fèmen pòt la; lè sa a, nou menm n'a deyò. N'a kòmanse frape nan pòt la; n'a di: Mèt, Mèt, louvri pou nou! La reponn nou: Mwen pa konnen ki bò nou soti.
when once the householder shall rouse himself, and lock the door, and ye begin to stand, outside, and to knock at the door, saying—Lord! open to us; and he shall answer and say unto you—I know you not, whence ye are.
26 Lè sa a n'a di: Nou te manje, nou te bwè ansanm avè ou, ou te moutre nou anpil bagay nan tout lari lakay nou.
Then, will ye begin to say—We did eat and drink in thy presence, and, in our broadways, thou didst, teach;
27 Men, la reponn nou: Mwen di nou, mwen pa konnen ki bò nou soti. Wete kò nou sou mwen, nou tout k'ap fè sa ki mal.
And he will speak, saying unto you—I know not whence ye are; Depart from me, all workers of unrighteous—
28 Lè n'a wè Abraram, Izarak, Jakòb ak tout pwofèt yo nan bèl peyi kote Bondye Wa a, epi nou menm nou deyò, se lè sa a va gen rèl, se lè sa a moun va manje dan yo.
There, will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, as soon as ye see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and, yourselves, being thrust forth outside.
29 Moun va soti nan peyi solèy leve ak nan peyi solèy kouche, y'a soti nan nò ak nan sid, y'a chita sou tab nan bèl peyi kote Bondye Wa a.
And they shall have come from east and west, and from north and south, and be made recline in the kingdom of God.
30 Lè sa a, nan moun ki dèyè nèt koulye a, genyen k'ap pase devan. Nan moun ki devan koulye a, genyen k'ap rete dèyè.
And lo! there are, last, who shall be, first, and there are, first, who shall be, last;
31 Menm lè sa a, kèk farizyen pwoche bò kot Jezi, yo di li: Pa rete isit la, ale yon lòt kote, paske Ewòd vle touye ou.
In that very hour, came near certain Pharisees, saying unto him, Go forth, and be journeying hence, because, Herod, desireth to slay thee.
32 Li reponn yo: Ale di chat mawon an: m'ap chase move lespri yo, m'ap geri moun malad jòdi a ak denmen, nan twa jou m'ap fin travay mwen.
And he said unto them—Go and tell this fox, Lo! I am casting out demons, and, cures, am I finishing, to-day, and to-morrow, —
33 Men, fòk mwen kontinye mache jòdi a, denmen ak apre denmen tou, paske sa pa bon pou yo touye yon pwofèt lòt kote pase nan lavil Jerizalèm.
and, on the third, I am to be made perfect. Nevertheless, I must needs, to-day, and tomorrow, and the following, be journeying on, because it is impossible that a prophet perish, outside Jerusalem.
34 Jerizalèm, Jerizalèm, ou menm k'ap touye pwofèt yo, k'ap touye moun Bondye voye ba ou yo ak kout wòch, depi lontan mwen te vle sanble moun ou yo tankou yon manman poul sanble ti pitit li yo anba zèl li, men ou pa t' vle!
Jerusalem! Jerusalem! she that slayeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! How often, have I desired to gather together thy children, like as a hen, her own brood, under her wings, —and ye did not desire!
35 Enben, kay ou yo va rete san moun. M'ap di ou sa: nou p'ap wè m' ankò, jouk lè a va rive pou nou di: benediksyon pou moun ki vini nan non Mèt la.
Lo! your house is left to you. [And] I say unto you—In nowise shall ye see me, until ye say, —Blessed, is he that cometh in the name of the Lord!
