Mak 11
1 Yo t'ap pwoche bò Jerizalèm, bò bouk Betfaje ak Betani, yo te rive sou mòn Oliv l'a. Lè sa a, Jezi voye de nan disip li yo.
Now when they were approaching Jerusalem, near Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives,
2 Li di yo: -Ale nan bouk ki devan nou an. Lè n'a rive, n'a jwenn yon jenn ti bourik mare. Pesonn poko janm moute sou li. Lage l', mennen l' ban mwen.
Jesus sent two of his disciples and told them. "Go to that village in front of you, and immediately on entering it you will find a colt tied, upon which no man has ever sat; untie him and bring him here.
3 Nenpòt moun ki mande nou poukisa n'ap fè sa, nou mèt reponn: Se Mèt la ki bezwen li. L'ap voye ti bourik la tounen touswit.
And if any man asks you, ‘Why are you doing that?" answer, ‘The Lord has need of him, and he will immediately send him back.’"
4 Lè disip yo ale, yo jwenn jenn ti bourik la mare deyò nan lari a, devan pòt yon kay. Yo lage li.
So they went and found a colt tied outside a door, in the open street, and untied it.
5 Kèk moun ki te la di yo konsa: -Sa n'ap fè la a? Pouki n'ap lage ti bourik la?
And some of the bystanders began to say to them, "What are you trying to do, untying that colt?"
6 Disip yo reponn jan Jezi te di yo reponn lan. Epi moun yo kite yo ale.
So they answered them just as Jesus had told them, and they let them take it.
7 Yo mennen ti bourik la bay Jezi; yo mete rad sou do li, epi Jezi moute chita.
Then they brought the colt to Jesus, and when they had thrown cloaks upon it, Jesus seated himself on it.
8 Anpil moun te tann rad yo atè sou tout chemen an. Gen lòt ki te koupe branch bwa nan jaden pou mete atè nan chemen an.
Then many spread their cloaks on the road, and others, soft leafy branches, which they had cut from the fields;
9 Ni moun ki t'ap mache devan Jezi yo, ni moun ki t'ap mache dèyè l' yo, yo tout t'ap rele byen fò: -Lwanj pou Bondye! Benediksyon pou moun ki vini nan non Mèt la.
and those who went before him and those who came after kept shouting. "Hosanna! Blessed be He who comes in the name of the Lord!
10 Wi, benediksyon pou gouvènman k'ap vini an, pou gouvènman wa David, papa nou. Lwanj pou Bondye jouk anwo nan syèl la!
Blessed be the coming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna, in the highest!"
11 Jezi antre lavil Jerizalèm; li ale nan tanp lan. Li voye je l' sou tout bagay. Apre sa, li ale Betani avèk douz disip li yo paske li te fin ta.
Then he entered Jerusalem and went into the Temple, and after he had looked around at everything, as the hour was now late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve.
12 Nan denmen, antan yo t'ap soti Betani, Jezi te grangou.
The next day after leaving Bethany he was hungry,
13 Depi byen lwen, li wè yon pye fig frans ki te plen fèy. li al wè si li ta jwenn kèk fig frans sou li. Men, lè li rive kote l', se fèy ase li jwenn, paske se pa t' sezon fig frans.
and seeing a fig tree in the distance full of leaves, he came to see if he could find anything on it, and found on it nothing but leaves (for it was not the time of figs).
14 Lè sa a, Jezi pale ak pye fig frans lan, li di li: -Pesonn p'ap janm manje fig ou donnen ankò. Disip yo te tande sa l' te di a. (aiōn g165)
So, addressing the tree, he said, "Let no man ever more eat fruit from you." And the disciples heard it. (aiōn g165)
15 Apre sa, yo rive Jerizalèm, Jezi antre nan tanp lan. Li pran chase tout moun ki t'ap vann ak tout moun ki t'ap achte nan tanp lan. Li chavire tab moun ki t'ap chanje lajan yo ansanm ak chèz moun ki t'ap vann pijon yo.
Presently they reached Jerusalem, and, after entering the Temple courts, Jesus began to drive out those who were buying and selling there, and to upset the tables of the money-changers, and the stalls of those who sold doves,
16 Li pa t' pèmèt pesonn travèse tanp lan ak bagay nan men yo.
and he would not allow any one to carry a vessel through the Temple courts, Then he began to teach.
17 Li t'ap moutre moun yo anpil bagay, li di yo: -Men sa ki ekri, pa vre: y'a rele kay mwen an kay kote moun tout nasyon ka vin lapriyè. Men nou menm, nou fè l' tounen yon kachèt pou vòlò.
"Is it not written," he said, "My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations? But you have made it a den of robbers."
18 Lè chèf prèt yo avèk dirèktè lalwa yo tande sa, yo t'ap chache yon jan pou yo fè touye l'; paske yo te vin pè l', lèfini, pawòl li t'ap moutre moun yo te aji anpil sou foul moun yo.
The chief priests and the Scribes heard this, and they began to seek means of destroying him; for they were afraid of him because all the crowd were greatly struck with his teaching.
19 Lè solèy fin kouche, Jezi soti kite lavil la ansanm ak disip li yo.
Now every evening he used to go outside the city;
20 Nan denmen maten, byen bonè, antan yo t'ap pase sou wout la, disip yo wè pye fig frans la cheche jouk nan rasen.
and as they (he and his disciples) were passing along in the morning, they saw the fig tree already withered from the root.
21 Pyè vin chonje sak te pase. Li di Jezi konsa: -Mèt, gade pye fig frans ou te madichonnen an. Li cheche wi.
Then Peter remembered, and exclaimed, "Look, Rabbi, the fig tree which you cursed is withered up."
22 Lè sa a, Jezi pran lapawòl, li di yo: -Se pou nou toujou gen konfyans nan Bondye.
"Take hold on God’s faithfulness," said Jesus to them in reply.
23 Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: si yon moun di mòn sa a: Wete kò ou la, al jete ou nan lanmè, si l' pa gen doutans nan kè l' menm, si l' gen fèm konviksyon sa l' di a gen pou rive, la wè l' rive vre.
"In solemn truth I tell you that if any one shall say to this mountain, ‘Up and hurl yourself into the sea!’ and shall not doubt in his heart, but on the contrary shall believe that what he says will happen, it will be granted him.
24 Se pou sa mwen di nou: Tou sa n'ap mande lè n'ap lapriyè, si nou gen fèm konviksyon nou resevwa l' deja, n'a wè sa rive vre.
That is why I am telling you that whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it shall be yours.
25 Lè nou kanpe poun lapriyè, si nou gen yon moun nan kè nou, padonnen l', pou Papa nou ki nan syèl la ka padonnen peche nou yo tou.
And whenever you stand up to pray, forgive, if you have anything against any one, that so your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses."
26 Men, si nou pa padonnen lòt moun yo, Papa nou ki nan syèl la p'ap padonnen peche nou yo tou.
27 Se konsa, yo tounen lavil Jerizalèm ankò. Pandan Jezi t'ap pwonmennen nan tanp lan, chèf prèt yo, dirèktè lalwa yo ak chèf fanmi yo te vin bò kote li.
Once more they came into Jerusalem; and as he was walking in the Temple courts, there came to him the high priests and Scribes and elders and asked him.
28 Yo di l' konsa: -Ki dwa ou genyen pou w'ap fè tout bagay sa yo? Kilès ki ba ou otorite pou fè yo?
"By what authority do you do these things? or who gave you this authority to do these things?"
29 Jezi reponn yo: -Mwen pral poze nou yon sèl keksyon tou. Si nou reponn mwen, m'a di nou ak ki otorite m'ap fè bagay sa yo.
"And I will put one question to you," replied Jesus. "Answer this, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
30 Ki moun ki te voye Jan batize moun: Bondye osinon moun? Reponn mwen non.
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men? Answer me!"
31 Men, yonn t'ap di lòt konsa: -Si nou reponn: Se Bondye ki voye l', la mande nou poukisa nou pa t' kwè li.
Then they began arguing with one another. "If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask, ‘Why then did you not believe him?"
32 Si nou reponn: Se moun ki voye l'... oum! Yo te pè pèp la, paske tout moun sa yo te pran Jan Batis pou yon bon pwofèt.
On the other hand, if we say, ‘From men’!"They were afraid, however, of the people, for every one held that Johnhad been really a prophet.
33 Lè sa a yo reponn Jezi: -Nou pa konnen. Jezi di yo: -Enben, mwen menm tou, mwen p'ap di nou avèk ki otorite mwen fè bagay sa yo.
So their answer to Jesus was, "We do not know." "Neither will I tell you," said Jesus, "by what authority I do these things."
