Lik 7
1 Lè Jezi fin pale tout pawòl sa yo ak pèp la, li ale lavil Kapènawòm.
After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
2 Nan lavil sa a, yon kaptenn lame a te gen yon domestik li te renmen anpil. Domestik sa a te twouve l' malad prèt pou mouri.
A certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.
3 Kaptenn lan tande pale sou Jezi; se konsa li voye kèk chèf fanmi nan jwif yo al mande Jezi pou l' vin geri domestik li a.
When he heard about Yeshua, he sent to him Jewish elders, asking him to come and save his servant.
4 Yo rive bò kot Jezi, yo di li: Tanpri, fè sa pou li, li merite li. Paske li renmen pèp nou an.
When they came to Yeshua, they begged him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy for you to do this for him,
5 Se li ki te bati sinagòg la pou nou.
for he loves our nation, and he built our synagogue for us.”
6 Jezi ale avè yo. Li te rive toupre kay la lè kaptenn lan voye kèk zanmi di l' konsa: Mèt, pa bay kò ou tout traka sa a. Mwen pa merite pou ou antre lakay mwen.
Yeshua went with them. When he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for you to come under my roof.
7 Se poutèt sa mwen pa t' kwè m' ase bon pou m' te vin jwenn ou, mwen menm. Annik di yon mo, domestik mwen an va geri.
Therefore I didn’t even think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant will be healed.
8 Mwen menm, mwen sou zòd chèf, mwen gen sòlda sou zòd mwen tou. Lè m' di yonn: Ale! li ale. Lè m' di yon lòt: Vini! li vini. Lè m' di domestik mwen an: Fè sa! li fè li.
For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
9 Lè Jezi tande pawòl sa yo, li vin gen yon gwo admirasyon pou kaptenn lan. Li vire bò foul moun ki t'ap swiv li a, li di yo: M'ap di nou sa: Mwen poko janm jwenn yon moun ki gen konfyans nan Bondye konsa, pa menm nan pèp Izrayèl la.
When Yeshua heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude who followed him, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel.”
10 Lè zanmi kaptenn lan te voye yo tounen nan kay la, yo jwenn domestik ki te malad la geri.
Those who were sent, returning to the house, found that the servant who had been sick was well.
11 Apre sa, Jezi ale nan yon lavil yo rele Nayen. Disip li yo t'ap fè wout avè l' ansanm ak yon gwo foul moun.
Soon afterwards, he went to a city called Nain. Many of his disciples, along with a great multitude, went with him.
12 Li rive bò pòtay lavil la. Lè sa a yo t'ap pote yon mò al antere: se te sèl pitit gason yon madanm vèv. Te gen anpil moun lavil la avèk li.
Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, one who was dead was carried out, the only born son of his mother, and she was a widow. Many people of the city were with her.
13 Lè Jezi wè vèv la, kè l' fè l' mal pou li, li di li: Pa kriye, tande!
When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said to her, “Don’t cry.”
14 Apre sa li pwoche, li manyen sèkèy la. Moun ki t'ap pote l' yo ret kanpe. Li di: Jennonm, se mwen menm k'ap pale avè ou. Leve.
He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!”
15 Epi mò a leve chita, li kòmanse pale. Jezi renmèt li bay manman li.
He who was dead sat up and began to speak. Then he gave him to his mother.
16 Tout moun yo te pè, yo t'ap fè lwanj Bondye, yo t'ap di: Yon gwo pwofèt parèt nan mitan nou! Yo t'ap di tou: Bondye vin sove pèp li a.
Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and, “God has visited his people!”
17 Nouvèl la te gaye nan tout peyi Jide a ak nan tout vwazinaj la.
This report went out concerning him in the whole of Judea and in all the surrounding region.
18 Patizan Jan Batis yo te rakonte tout bagay sa yo bay Jan Batis.
The disciples of Yochanan told him about all these things.
19 Jan rele de ladan yo, li voye yo bò kot Jezi al mande li: Eske ou se moun nou konnen ki gen pou vini an, osinon èske nou dwe tann yon lòt?
Yochanan, calling to himself two of his disciples, sent them to Yeshua, saying, “Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for another?”
20 Lè mesye sa yo rive bò kot Jezi, yo di li: Jan Batis voye nou bò kote ou vin mande ou: Eske ou se moun nou konnen ki gen pou vini an, osinon èske nou dwe tann yon lòt?
When the men had come to him, they said, “Yochanan the Immerser has sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?’”
21 Lè sa a, Jezi t'ap geri anpil moun malad ak anpil moun enfim, li t'ap wete yo anba pouvwa move lespri, li t'ap fè anpil avèg wè ankò.
In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight.
22 Apre sa, li reponn moun Jan Batis te voye yo konsa: Ale rakonte Jan sa nou sot wè ak sa nou sot tande la a: je avèg yo louvri, moun ki t'ap bwete yo mache byen, moun ki te gen maladi lalèp yo geri, moun soudè yo tande, moun mouri yo leve, pòv yo tande bon nouvèl la.
Yeshua answered them, “Go and tell Yochanan the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
23 benediksyon pou moun ki p'ap jwenn nan mwen okazyon pou yo tonbe nan peche.
Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”
24 Lè moun Jan te voye yo al fè wout yo, Jezi kòmanse pale ak foul moun yo sou Jan Batis. Li di yo konsa: Kisa nou te al wè nan dezè a? Yon pye wozo van ap balanse? Non.
When Yochanan’s messengers had departed, he began to tell the multitudes about Yochanan, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
25 Men, kisa nou te al wè menm? Yon nonm abiye ak bèl rad? Ala, moun ki abiye ak bèl rad, k'ap viv nan jwisans, se kay wa yo jwenn yo.
But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Behold, those who are gorgeously dressed and live delicately are in kings’ courts.
26 Men, manyè di m' kisa nou tal wè? Yon pwofèt? Wi. Mwen menm, mwen di nou: li pi plis pase yon pwofèt.
But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
27 Men sa ki te ekri sou Jan Batis: Men m'ap voye mesaje m' lan devan ou, la louvri chemen an devan pou ou.
This is he of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
28 M'ap di nou sa: Nan tout moun ki fèt sou latè pa gen yonn ki pi konsekan pase Jan Batis. Men, moun ki pi piti nan peyi kote Bondye wa a pi konsekan pase li.
“For I tell you, among those who are born of women there is not a greater prophet than Yochanan the Immerser; yet he who is least in God’s Kingdom is greater than he.”
29 Tout pèp la ansanm ak pèseptè kontribisyon yo t'ap tande li. Moun sa yo te rekonèt se Bondye ki gen rezon, se pou sa yo te fè Jan Batis batize yo.
When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared God to be just, having been immersed with Yochanan’s immersion.
30 Men, farizyen yo ak dirèktè lalwa yo te refize sa Bondye te vle fè pou yo; se sak fè yo pa t' kite Jan Batis batize yo.
But the Pharisees and the Torah scholars rejected the counsel of God, not being immersed by him themselves.
31 Jezi di yo ankò: Ak ki moun mwen ta konpare moun k'ap viv nan tan alèkile yo? Ki moun yo sanble menm?
“To what then should I compare the people of this generation? What are they like?
32 Yo sanble timoun ki chita sou plas piblik. Yonn ap rele lòt pou di l' konsa: Nou jwe mizik cho pou nou ak fif nou, nou pa danse. Nou chante chante ki tris pou nou, nou pa kriye.
They are like children who sit in the marketplace and call to one another, saying, ‘We piped to you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned, and you didn’t weep.’
33 Jan Batis vini, li pa manje pen, ni li pa bwè diven, nou di: Li gen yon move lespri sou li.
For Yochanan the Immerser came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’
34 Mwen menm, Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a, mwen vini, mwen manje, mwen bwè, nou di: Gade yon nonm! Se manje ak bwè ase l' konnen; se zanmi pèseptè kontribisyon ak moun k'ap fè sa ki mal li ye.
The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
35 Men, tout moun ki asepte bon konprann Bondye a, yo moutre se Bondye nan bon konprann li ki gen rezon.
Wisdom is justified by all her children.”
36 Yon farizyen te envite Jezi vin manje avè li. Jezi ale lakay farizyen an; li chita bò tab la pou l' manje.
One of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. He entered into the Pharisee’s house and sat at the table.
37 Nan lavil sa a, te gen yon fanm movèz vi. Lè fanm lan pran nouvèl Jezi t'ap manje lakay farizyen an, li pote yon ti boutèy fèt an albat plen odè.
Behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that he was reclining in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster jar of ointment.
38 Li mete kò l' dèyè bò pye Jezi. Li kriye, li kriye, li mouye pye Jezi ak dlo ki t'ap soti nan je li. Apre sa, li siye yo ak cheve l', li bo yo, epi li vide odè sou yo.
Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Lè farizyen ki te envite Jezi a wè sa, li t'ap di nan kè l': Si nonm sa a te yon pwofèt vre, se pou l' ta konnen ki kalite moun fanm sa k'ap manyen l' lan ye, li ta konnen ki movèz vi fanm sa a ap mennen.
Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”
40 Lè sa a, Jezi pran lapawòl, li di l' konsa: Simon, mwen gen kichòy pou m' di ou. Simon reponn li: Mèt, ou mèt pale wi.
Yeshua answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Rabbi, say on.”
41 Jezi di li: Vwala, se te de moun ki te dwe yon nonm ki te prete yo lajan; premye a te dwe l' senksan (500) goud; lòt la te dwe l' senkant goud.
“A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
42 Ni yonn ni lòt pa t' gen dekwa peye dèt la. Lè sa a, nonm lan di yo yo pa bezwen peye dèt la ankò. Kilès nan yo de a va renmen l' plis?
When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?”
43 Simon reponn li: Mwen ta kwè se nonm ki te dwe l' plis la. Jezi di l': Ou byen reponn.
Simon answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”
44 Epi li vire bò fanm lan, li di Simon: Ou wè fanm sa a? Mwen antre lakay ou, ou pa menm ban m' dlo pou m' lave pye m'; men li menm, li lave pye m' ak dlo ki soti nan je l'. Apre sa, li siye yo ak cheve li.
Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.
45 Ou pa te bo m' lè m' t'ap antre lakay ou; men li menm, depi mwen antre se bo l'ap bo pye m'.
You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 Ou pa vide lwil sou tèt mwen; men li menm, li vide odè sou pye mwen.
You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Se poutèt sa, mwen di ou: li fè tout bagay sa yo pou moutre jan li renmen anpil, paske yo padonnen li anpil peche. Men, yon moun yo padonnen yon ti kras, se yon ti kras l'ap moutre jan l' renmen tou.
Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”
48 Apre sa, Jezi di fanm lan: Peche ou yo padonnen.
He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
49 Moun ki te chita bò tab la avèk li yo pran di nan kè yo: Ki moun nonm sa a ye menm pou li padonnen peche?
Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
50 Men Jezi di fanm lan: Se konfyans ou nan Bondye ki sove ou. Ale ak kè poze.
He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
