< Lik 5 >
1 Yon jou, Jezi te bò kote letan Jenezarèt la; yon foul moun t'ap kwense l' toupatou pou tande pawòl Bondye a.
Now it came to pass, while the multitude pressed upon him and heard the word of God, that he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret;
2 Li wè de kannòt bò rivaj la; pechè yo te desann atè, yo t'ap lave senn yo.
and he saw two boats standing by the lake: but the fishermen had gone out of them, and were washing their nets.
3 Jezi moute nan yonn nan kannòt yo ki te pou Simon. Li mande l' pou l' vanse yon ti kras nan fon. Antan Jezi chita nan kannòt la, li t'ap moutre moun yo anpil bagay.
And he entered into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, and asked him to put out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the multitudes out of the boat.
4 Lè li fin pale, li di Simon konsa: Vanse kannòt la plis nan fon; jete senn ou pou peche.
And when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Put out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
5 Simon reponn li: Mèt, nou pase tout nwit lan ap travay san nou pa pran anyen. Men, paske se ou ki di nou fè sa, nou pral lage senn lan.
And Simon answered and said, Master, we toiled all night, and took nothing: but at thy word I will let down the nets.
6 Yo lage senn lan; yo pran yon kantite pwason. Tèlman pwason yo te anpil, senn lan t'ap chire.
And when they had this done, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes; and their nets were breaking;
7 Yo fè asosye yo ki te nan lòt kannòt la siy vin ede yo. Yo vini; de kannòt yo te sitèlman plen pwason, yo te prèt pou koule.
and they beckoned unto their partners in the other boat, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink.
8 Lè Simon Pyè wè sa, li lage kò l' nan pye Jezi, li di l' konsa: Mèt, pa rete kote mwen, paske mwen pa bon.
But Simon Peter, when he saw it, fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.
9 Yon sèl sezisman te pran Simon ak tout mesye ki te avèk li yo lè yo wè kantite pwason yo te pran.
For he was amazed, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken;
10 Se te menm bagay la tou pou Jak ak Jan, de pitit Zebede yo, ki te asosye Simon. Lè sa a Jezi di Simon: Pa pè. Depi koulye a se moun ou pral peche.
and so were also James and John, sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men.
11 Yo mennen kannòt yo atè, yo kite tout bagay, y' ale avèk Jezi.
And when they had brought their boats to land, they left all, and followed him.
12 Pandan Jezi te nan yon lavil, yon nonm ki te kouvri ak lalèp vin rive. Lè l' wè Jezi, li lage kò l' fas atè, li di l' konsa: Mèt, si ou vle, ou ka geri mwen.
And it came to pass, while he was in one of the cities, behold, a man full of leprosy: and when he saw Jesus, he fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
13 Jezi lonje men l', li manyen nonm lan, li di l': Wi, mwen vle ou geri. Menm lè a, lalèp la kite li.
And he stretched forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou made clean. And straightway the leprosy departed from him.
14 Jezi pase l' lòd sevè sa a: Pa di pesonn sa. Men, ale fè prèt la wè ki jan ou ye. Apre sa, wa ofri sa Moyiz te bay lòd ofri a. Konsa wa bay tout moun prèv ou geri.
And he charged him to tell no man: but go thy way, and shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
15 Malgre sa, nouvèl la gaye pi plis; moun t'ap vin an foul pou tande li, pou chache gerizon nan men li.
But so much the more went abroad the report concerning him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed of their infirmities.
16 Men, Jezi wete kò l', li al yon kote ki pa gen moun menm, li t'ap lapriyè.
But he withdrew himself in the deserts, and prayed.
17 Yon jou, Jezi t'ap moutre moun yo anpil bagay. Kèk farizyen ak kèk dirèktè lalwa te chita la; yo te soti nan tout bouk Galile yo, nan bouk Jide yo ak nan lavil Jerizalèm. Pouvwa Bondye te avèk Jezi, li t'ap geri malad yo.
And it came to pass on one of those days, that he was teaching; and there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of every village of Galilee and Judaea and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was with him to heal.
18 Se konsa, kèk moun vin ap pote yon nonm paralize kouche sou yon kabann. Yo t'ap chache fè l' antre nan kay la pou mete l' devan Jezi.
And behold, men bring on a bed a man that was palsied: and they sought to bring him in, and to lay him before him.
19 Men, akòz foul moun yo, yo pa t' jwenn plas pou fè l' antre. Lè yo wè sa, yo moute sou do kay la, yo fè yon twou nan kouvèti kay la ki te fèt an brik, yo file malad la desann ak tout kabann li, nan mitan moun yo, dwat devan Jezi.
And not finding by what [way] they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went up to the housetop, and let him down through the tiles with his couch into the midst before Jesus.
20 Jezi wè jan yo te kwè nan li, li di nonm malad la: Monchè, tout peche ou yo padonnen.
And seeing their faith, he said, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.
21 Dirèktè lalwa ak farizyen yo t'ap di nan kè yo: Kilès nonm sa a k'ap pale mal sou Bondye konsa? Pa gen moun sou latè ki ka padonnen peche: sa se travay Bondye sèlman.
And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this that speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?
22 Jezi menm te konnen sak t'ap pase nan tèt yo, li di yo konsa: Poukisa n'ap fè lide konsa nan tèt nou?
But Jesus perceiving their reasonings, answered and said unto them, What reason ye in your hearts?
23 Ki sak pi fasil pou m' di: Peche ou yo padonnen osinon: Leve kanpe, mache.
Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Arise and walk?
24 Enben, m'ap fè nou konnen mwen menm, Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a, mwen gen pouvwa sou latè pou m' padonnen peche tande. Apre sa, Jezi di nonm paralize a: Se mwen menm k'ap pale avè ou: Leve kanpe, pran kabann ou, ale lakay ou.
But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins (he said unto him that was palsied), I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go unto thy house.
25 Menm lè a, nonm lan kanpe devan yo tout, li pran kabann li te kouche sou li a, li al lakay li, li t'ap fè lwanj Bondye.
And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay, and departed to his house, glorifying God.
26 Tout moun te sezi. Yo t'ap fè lwanj Bondye. Yo te pè anpil tou, yo t'ap di: Ala bèl mèvèy nou wè jòdi a!
And amazement took hold on all, and they glorified God; and they were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things today.
27 Apre sa, Jezi soti, li wè yon pèseptè kontribisyon yo te rele Levi. Li te chita devan biwo travay li.
And after these things he went forth, and beheld a publican, named Levi, sitting at the place of toll, and said unto him, Follow me.
28 Jezi di l' konsa: Swiv mwen. Levi annik leve, li kite tout bagay, li swiv Jezi.
And he forsook all, and rose up and followed him.
29 Apre sa, Levi fè yon gwo resepsyon lakay li pou Jezi. Te gen anpil pèseptè kontribisyon ansanm ak lòt moun ankò ki te chita bò tab la avèk yo.
And Levi made him a great feast in his house: and there was a great multitude of publicans and of others that were sitting at meat with them.
30 Farizyen yo ak dirèktè lalwa ki te fè gwoup ak yo t'ap babye, yo di disip Jezi yo: Poukisa n'ap plede manje, n'ap plede bwè konsa ak pèseptè kontribisyon ansanm ak lòt moun k'ap fè sa ki mal?
And the Pharisees and their scribes murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with the publicans and sinners?
31 Jezi reponn yo: Lè yon moun ansante, li pa bezwen dòktè. Se moun malad ki bezwen dòktè.
And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole have no need of a physician; but they that are sick.
32 Enben, mwen pa vin rele moun k'ap mache dwat devan Bondye, men moun k'ap fè sa ki mal pou yo kapab tounen vin jwenn Bondye.
I am not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.
33 Gen kèk moun ki di Jezi konsa: Patizan Jan Batis yo ak patizan farizyen yo fè jèn souvan, se tout tan y'ap lapriyè. Men disip pa ou yo, tout tan se manje, se bwè.
And they said unto him, The disciples of John fast often, and make supplications; likewise also the [disciples] of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink.
34 Jezi reponn yo: Eske nou ka fòse zanmi yon nonm k'ap marye pou yo rete san manje tout tan li la avèk yo?
And Jesus said unto them, Can ye make the sons of the bride-chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?
35 Non. Men, lè lè a rive pou nonm k'ap marye a pa avèk yo ankò, se lè sa a y'a fè jèn.
But the days will come; and when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, then will they fast in those days.
36 Epi li di yo parabòl sa a: Pesonn p'ap chire yon moso nan yon rad nèf pou pyese yon vye rad. Si ou fè sa, ou chire rad nèf la, lèfini moso twal nèf la pa ale ak vye rad la non plis.
And he spake also a parable unto them; No man rendeth a piece from a new garment and putteth it upon an old garment; else he will rend the new, and also the piece from the new will not agree with the old.
37 Konsa tou, pesonn pa mete diven ki fenk fèt nan vye veso fèt an po. Si ou fè sa, diven ki fenk fèt la va pete veso an po yo. Lè sa a, diven an koule atè, veso an po yo pèdi tou.
And no man putteth new wine into old wineskins; else the new wine will burst the skins, and itself will be spilled, and the skins will perish.
38 Men, diven ki fenk fèt, sa dwe ale nan veso an po ki fenk fèt tou.
But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins.
39 Yon moun ki fin bwè diven ki la lontan p'ap vle bwè diven ki fenk fèt. Se sa pawòl la di: Pi vye pi bon.
And no man having drunk old [wine] desireth new: for he saith, The old is good.
