Lik 8
1 Apre sa, Jezi mache ale nan tout lavil yo ak nan tout bouk yo. Li t'ap mache bay mesaj la, li t'ap anonse bon nouvèl peyi kote Bondye Wa a. Douz disip yo te toujou avè li.
And it came to pass afterwards that he went through [the country] city by city, and village by village, preaching and announcing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God; and the twelve [were] with him,
2 Te gen kèk fanm avè l' tou. Se moun li te wete move lespri sou yo, li te geri maladi yo. Te gen Mari (yo te rele moun Magdala a). Jezi te wete sèt move lespri sou li.
and certain women who had been healed of wicked spirits and infirmities, Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,
3 Te gen Jan, madanm Chouza, yonn nan jeran Ewòd yo. Te gen Sizan ak anpil lòt ankò. Yo tout yo t'ap ede Jezi ansanm ak disip li yo ak sa yo te genyen.
and Joanna, wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered to him of their substance.
4 Lè sa a, te gen yon gwo foul moun ki te sanble; moun te soti nan divès vil vin bò kot Jezi. Li pran rakonte yo parabòl sa a:
And a great crowd coming together, and those who were coming to him out of each city, he spoke by parable:
5 Yon nonm soti pou li ale simen grenn nan jaden li. Pandan l' t'ap simen grenn yo, kèk grenn tonbe bò chemen an: Pye pile yo, zwezo nan syèl vini, yo manje yo.
The sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell along the way, and it was trodden under foot, and the birds of the heaven devoured it up;
6 Yon pati tonbe nan mitan wòch; grenn yo leve. Men, yo cheche paske yo pa t' jwenn tè fre.
and other fell upon the rock, and having sprung up, it was dried up because it had not moisture;
7 Yon lòt pati tonbe nan mitan pye pikan. Pye pikan yo grandi ansanm ak bon ti plant yo, yo toufe yo.
and other fell in the midst of the thorns, and the thorns having sprung up with [it] choked it;
8 Men, yon lòt pati ankò tonbe nan bon tè. Plant yo leve, yo donnen: yo bay san (100) pou yonn. Lè l' fin di sa, li di ankò: Si nou gen zòrèy pou n' tande, tande.
and other fell into the good ground, and having sprung up bore fruit a hundredfold. As he said these things he cried, He that has ears to hear, let him hear.
9 Disip li yo mande l' kisa parabòl sa a vle di.
And his disciples asked him [saying], What may this parable be?
10 Li reponn yo: Pou nou, yo fè nou konnen tout sekrè peyi kote Bondye Wa a. Men, pou lòt moun yo, yo ba yo l' an parabòl; konsa yo mèt gade, yo p'ap wè, yo mèt tande, yo p'ap konprann.
And he said, To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but to the rest in parables, in order that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
11 Men sa parabòl sa a vle di: Grenn y'ap simen an se pawòl Bondye.
But the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
12 Gen moun ki sanble ak tè bò chemen kote grenn yo tonbe a. Yo tande, men Satan vini, li rache pawòl la nan kè yo pou yo pa kwè, pou yo pa sove.
But those by the wayside are those who hear; then comes the devil and takes away the word from their heart that they may not believe and be saved.
13 Gen lòt moun ki sanble tè ki gen anpil wòch la. Yo tande pawòl la, yo resevwa l' ak kè kontan; men yo pa kite l' pouse rasin, yo pa kwè l' pou lontan. Lè eprèv tonbe sou yo, yo vire do bay Bondye.
But those upon the rock, those who when they hear receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who believe for a time, and in time of trial fall away.
14 Grenn ki tonbe nan mitan pikan yo, se moun ki tande pawòl la, men lè y al fè wout yo, yo kite traka lavi, richès ak plezi ki nan lavi toufè l'. Yo donnen men donn yo pa janm rive rèk.
But that that fell where the thorns were, these are they who having heard go away and are choked under cares and riches and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
15 Grenn ki tonbe nan bon tè a, se moun ki sensè, ki gen bon kè, ki tande pawòl la, yo kenbe l' nan kè yo. Yo toujou rete fèm jouk yo donnen.
But that in the good ground, these are they who in an honest and good heart, having heard the word keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
16 Pesonn pa limen yon lanp pou l' kouvri l' anba yon mamit, osinon pou l' mete l' anba yon kabann. Li mete l' sou yon etajè. Konsa, moun k'ap antre yo kapab wè limyè a.
And no one having lighted a lamp covers it with a vessel or puts it under a couch, but sets it on a lamp-stand, that they who enter in may see the light.
17 Nanpwen anyen ki kache ki p'ap devwale, nanpwen sekrè pou moun pa rive konnen, ki p'ap parèt aklè.
For there is nothing hid which shall not become manifest, nor secret which shall not be known and come to light.
18 Se poutèt sa, fè atansyon jan n'ap tande pawòl la. Paske, moun ki genyen deja a, y'a ba li ankò. Men, moun ki pa gen anyen an, y'a wete nan men l' menm ti sa l' te kwè li te genyen an.
Take heed therefore how ye hear; for whosoever has, to him shall be given, and whosoever has not, even what he seems to have shall be taken from him.
19 Manman Jezi ak frè l' yo te vin kote li. Men, yo pa t' kapab rive pre li akòz foul moun yo.
And his mother and his brethren came to him, and could not get to him because of the crowd.
20 Moun yo di l' konsa: Men manman ou ak frè ou yo deyò a. Yo anvi wè ou.
And it was told him [saying], Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, wishing to see thee.
21 Men, Jezi di yo tout: Manman m' ak frè m', se moun ki koute pawòl Bondye a epi ki fè sa pawòl la di.
But he answering said to them, My mother and my brethren are those who hear the word of God and do [it].
22 Yon jou, Jezi moute nan yon kannòt ak disip li yo. Li di yo: Ann janbe lòt bò letan an. Lamenm yo pati.
And it came to pass on one of the days, that he entered into a ship, himself and his disciples; and he said to them, Let us pass over to the other side of the lake; and they set off from shore.
23 Pandan yo t'ap navige, dòmi pran Jezi. Yon gwo van vin leve sou letan an, dlo kòmanse plen kannòt la, kifè lavi yo tout te an danje.
And as they sailed, he fell asleep; and a sudden squall of wind came down on the lake, and they were filled [with water], and were in danger;
24 Yo pwoche bò kot Jezi yo souke l', yo di li: Mèt, Mèt, se mouri n'ap mouri wi! Jezi leve, li pale byen fò ak van an ansanm ak lanm lanmè yo: tout bagay vin byen trankil, yon gwo kalmi fèt.
and coming to [him] they woke him up, saying, Master, master, we perish. But he, rising up, rebuked the wind and the raging of the water; and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Epi Jezi di yo: Kote konfyans nou ye? Men, yo te pè, yo te sezi. Yonn t'ap di lòt konsa: Ki moun li ye menm? Li kòmande menm van ak lanmè, yo obeyi li.
And he said to them, Where is your faith? And, being afraid, they were astonished, saying to one another, Who then is this, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?
26 Yo fè tè nan peyi Jerazenyen yo ki lòt bò letan an, vizaviz ak Galile.
And they arrived in the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee.
27 Jezi desann atè. Lamenm yon nonm lavil la vin devan l': nonm lan te gen anpil move lespri sou li. Depi lontan li pa t' janm vle mete rad sou li, ni li pa t' vle rete nan ankenn kay, se nan mitan tonm mò yo li t'ap viv.
And as he got out [of the ship] on the land, a certain man out of the city met him, who had demons a long time, and put on no clothes, and did not abide in a house, but in the tombs.
28 Lè l' wè Jezi, li bay yon gwo rèl, li lage kò l' atè devan Jezi, li pran pale byen fò, li di li konsa: Kisa m' gen avè ou, Jezi, Pitit Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la? Tanpri souple, pa fè m' soufri.
But seeing Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus Son of the Most High God? I beseech thee torment me not.
29 Li te pale konsa paske Jezi te pase move lespri a lòd pou li soti sou nonm lan. Anpil fwa, lespri a te vin sou li: lè konsa, yo te konn mare tou de men l' ak tou de pye l' ak chenn pou l' pa t' kouri. Men, li te jwenn mwayen pete chenn yo epi move lespri a te mennen l' ale nan dezè.
For he had commanded the unclean spirit to go out from the man. For very often it had seized him; and he had been bound, kept with chains and fetters; and breaking the bonds he was driven by the demon into the deserts.
30 Jezi mande li: Ki jan ou rele? Li reponn: Yo rele m' Rejiman. Li di sa paske se anpil move lespri ki te sou nonm lan.
And Jesus asked him saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: for many demons had entered into him.
And they besought him that he would not command them to go away into the bottomless pit. (Abyssos g12)
32 Sou ti mòn lan te gen yon bann kochon ki t'ap chache manje pou yo manje. Move lespri yo pran mande Jezi: Tanpri souple, kite nou antre nan kochon sa yo. Jezi ba yo pèmisyon sa a.
And there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain, and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into those; and he suffered them.
33 Lè sa a, move lespri yo soti sou nonm lan, yo antre nan kochon yo. Lamenm tout bann kochon yo pran degrengole desann bò falèz la, y' al neye tèt yo nan letan an.
And the demons, going out from the man, entered into the swine, and the herd rushed down the precipice into the lake, and were choked.
34 Moun ki t'ap gade kochon yo, lè yo wè sak te rive, yo pran kouri, yo gaye nouvèl la nan lavil la kou andeyò.
But they that fed [them], seeing what had happened, fled, and told [it] to the city and to the country.
35 Moun soti pou y' al wè sak te pase. Lè yo rive kote Jezi te ye a, yo jwenn nonm lan: move lespri yo te soti sou li, li te chita nan pye Jezi byen abiye ak tout bon sans li sou li. Yo tout te pè.
And they went out to see what had happened, and came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting, clothed and sensible, at the feet of Jesus. And they were afraid.
36 Moun ki te asiste bagay la mete rakonte yo ki jan nonm ki te gen move lespri sou li a te geri.
And they also who had seen it told them how the possessed man had been healed.
37 Lè sa a, tout moun nan peyi Jerazenyen yo mande Jezi pou li al fè wout li kite peyi a, paske yo te pè anpil. Jezi moute nan kannòt la pou l' ale.
And all the multitude of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were possessed with great fear; and he, entering into the ship, returned.
38 Nonm ki te gen move lespri soti sou li a mande l' pou li ale avèk li tou. Men, Jezi voye l' ale, li di li:
But the man out of whom the demons had gone besought him that he might be with him. But he sent him away, saying,
39 Tounen lakay ou; al rakonte tou sa Bondye fè pou ou. Nonm lan pati, li mache fè konnen tou sa Jezi te fè pou li nan tout lavil la.
Return to thine house and relate how great things God has done for thee. And he went away through the whole city, publishing how great things Jesus had done for him.
40 Lè Jezi tounen lòt bò letan an, yon foul moun resevwa l', paske tout moun t'ap tann li.
And it came to pass when Jesus returned, the crowd received him gladly, for they were all expecting him.
41 Yon nonm yo rele Jayiris vin rive. Se li ki te chèf sinagòg la. Li lage kò l' nan pye Jezi, li mande li: Tanpri souple, ann al lakay.
And behold, a man came, whose name was Jairus, and he was [a] ruler of the synagogue, and falling at the feet of Jesus besought him to come to his house,
42 Mwen gen yon tifi douzan ki sèl pitit fi m', mwen kite l' prèt pou mouri. Pandan Jezi tapral lakay Jayiris, yon foul moun t'ap kwense l' toupatou.
because he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. And as he went the crowds thronged him.
43 Te gen yon fanm nan foul moun yo ki te malad: Depi douzan li t'ap pèdi san. Li te fin depanse tout byen l' kay dòktè, san yo yonn pa t' kapab geri li.
And a woman who had a flux of blood since twelve years, who, having spent all her living on physicians, could not be cured by any one,
44 Li pwoche pa dèyè, li manyen ke rad Jezi. Latou, san an rete.
coming up behind, touched the hem of his garment, and immediately her flux of blood stopped.
45 Jezi mande: Ki moun ki manyen m' lan? Tout moun pran di se pa yo. Lè sa a, Pyè di li: Men, Mèt, se nan mitan yon foul moun ou ye, moun ap kwense ou tout jan.
And Jesus said, Who has touched me? But all denying, Peter and those with him said, Master, the crowds close thee in and press upon thee, and sayest thou, Who has touched me?
46 Men, Jezi reponn li: Mwen di ou gen yon moun ki manyen m', paske mwen santi yon fòs soti sou mwen.
And Jesus said, Some one has touched me, for I have known that power has gone out from me.
47 Lè sa a, fanm lan wè yo te dekouvri l', li pran tranble kou yon fèy bwa, li vin lage kò l' nan pye Jezi, li pran rakonte devan tout pèp la poukisa li te manyen l', ki jan li te geri menm lè a tou.
And the woman, seeing that she was not hid, came trembling, and falling down before him declared before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was immediately healed.
48 Jezi di li: Mafi, se konfyans ou nan Bondye ki geri ou; ale ak kè poze.
And he said to her, [Be of good courage, ] daughter; thy faith has healed thee; go in peace.
49 Jezi t'ap pale toujou lè yon nonm soti lakay chèf sinagòg la vin di li: Tifi ou la mouri; ou pa bezwen deranje mèt la pase sa.
While he was yet speaking, comes some one from the ruler of the synagogue, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; do not trouble the teacher.
50 Men, lè Jezi tande sa, li di Jayiris konsa: Pa pè. Sèlman, met konfyans ou nan mwen, pitit la va geri.
But Jesus, hearing it, answered him saying, Fear not: only believe, and she shall be made well.
51 Lè Jezi rive lakay la, li pa kite tout moun yo antre ak li. Li pran Pyè, Jan, Jak epi papa ak manman pitit la.
And when he came to the house he suffered no one to go in but Peter and John and James and the father of the child and the mother.
52 Tout moun t'ap kriye, yo t'ap plenn lanmò pitit la. Jezi di yo: Pa kriye. Pitit la pa mouri, se dòmi l'ap dòmi.
And all were weeping and lamenting her. But he said, Do not weep, for she has not died, but sleeps.
53 Lè sa a, yo tonbe pase l' nan betiz paske yo te konnen tifi a fin mouri.
And they derided him, knowing that she had died.
54 Men, Jezi pran men pitit la, li pale byen fò, li di konsa: Tifi, leve.
But he, having turned them all out and taking hold of her hand, cried saying, Child, arise.
55 Lespri tifi a tounen sou li ankò, menm lè a li leve. Jezi pase lòd pou yo ba l' manje.
And her spirit returned, and immediately she rose up; and he commanded [something] to eat to be given to her.
56 Papa ak manman tifi a te sezi anpil, men Jezi bay yo lòd pou yo pa di pesonn sak te pase.
And her parents were amazed; but he enjoined them to tell no one what had happened.
