Mak 7
1 Farizyen yo ak kèk dirèktè lalwa te soti Jerizalèm. Yo sanble bò kote Jezi.
Then the Pharisees, and some of the scribes gathered together to him, having come from Jerusalem.
2 Yo wè te gen nan disip li yo ki t'ap manje ak men yo tou sal, sa vle di, san yo pa t' lave men yo anvan.
Now when they saw that some of his disciples ate bread with defiled, that is, unwashed, hands, they found fault.
3 Farizyen yo ak tout lòt jwif yo pa t' janm manje san yo pa t' lave men yo byen lave. Nan sa, yo t'ap swiv koutim granmoun lontan yo.
(For the Pharisees, and all Jewish people, do not eat unless they wash their hands and forearms, holding to the Tradition of the Elders.
4 Lè yo soti nan mache, sa pa t' bon non plis pou yo te manje san yo pa t' pran yon beny anvan. Yo te gen yon bann lòt koutim konsa ankò yo t'ap swiv. Pa egzanp, yo te gen yon jan pou yo lave chak bagay, yon jan pou gode yo, yon jan pou krich yo, yon jan pou mamit yo, yon jan pou lave menm kabann yo.
They do not eat when they come from the marketplace unless they wash. And there are many other things which they have received and hold to, the washing of cups and pitchers and copper vessels and dining couches.)
5 Se sak fè, farizyen yo ak dirèktè lalwa yo mande Jezi: -Poukisa disip ou yo pa swiv koutim granmoun lontan yo? Men y'ap manje ak men yo tou sal.
The Pharisees and the scribes asked him, "Why do your disciples not walk according to the Tradition of the Elders, but eat their bread with unwashed hands?"
6 Jezi reponn yo: -Bann ipokrit! Ezayi te gen rezon lè l' t'ap pale sou nou, jan sa ekri a: Se nan bouch pèp sa a respekte m', men kè yo byen lwen mwen.
He said to them, "Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, 'This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
7 Se tan yo y'ap pèdi lè y'ap fè sèvis pou mwen. Paske nan leson yo, se pawòl lèzòm y'ap moutre moun.
And in vain do they worship me, teaching instructions that are the commandments of humans.'
8 Jezi di yo konsa: -Nou mete kòmandman Bondye yo sou kote pou nou swiv koutim moun etabli.
"For you set aside the commandment of God, and hold tightly to human tradition."
9 Li di yo tou: -Nou byen konnen jan pou nou vire kòmandman Bondye yo voye jete, pou nou ka kenbe pwòp pawòl pa nou yo.
He said to them, "Full well do you reject the commandment of God, that you may establish your tradition.
10 Tande byen. Moyiz di konsa: Respekte papa ou ak manman ou. Li di ankò: Si yon moun pale papa l' ak manman l' mal, se pou yo touye li.
For Moses said, 'Honor your father and your mother;' and, 'Anyone who speaks evil of father or mother, let him be put to death.'
11 Men nou menm, nou di: Si yon moun di papa l' osinon manman l': Tou sa m' ta gen pou m' ede ou la, li kòban (sa vle di: se yon ofrann mwen mete apa pou Bondye),
But you say, 'If anyone tells his father or mother, "Whatever profit you might have received from me is Corban, that is to say, given to God;"'
12 nan ka sa a, li pa bezwen fè anyen pou papa l' osinon manman li.
then you no longer allow him to do anything for his father or his mother,
13 Se konsa nou fè pawòl Bondye yo pase pou anyen ak pawòl pa nou n'ap transmèt yonn bay lòt. Nou fè anpil lòt bagay konsa ankò.
making void the word of God by your tradition, which you have handed down. You do many things like this."
14 Apre sa, Jezi rele foul moun yo vin bò kote l' ankò. Li di yo konsa: -Nou tout, tande byen sa m'ap di nou la a; manyè konprann sa.
And he called the crowd to himself again, and said to them, "Hear me, all of you, and understand.
15 Se pa bagay deyò ki antre anndan yon moun lè l'ap manje ki kapab mete l' nan kondisyon pou li pa ka sèvi Bondye.
There is nothing from outside of the person, that going into him can defile him; but the things which proceed out of the person are what defile the person."
16 Men, se sak sot nan kè l' ki ka mete l' nan kondisyon sa a. Si nou gen zòrèy poun tande, tande.
17 Lè l' fin kite foul moun yo dèyè, li antre nan kay la. Disip li yo mande l' esplike yo parabòl sa a.
When he had entered into a house away from the crowd, his disciples asked him about the parable.
18 Li di yo: -Nou menm tou, nou san konprann toujou? Nou pa konprann pawòl sa a: Tout bagay ki sot deyò antre anndan yon moun pa kapab mete l' nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka fè sèvis Bondye.
He said to them, "Are you thus without understanding also? Do you not perceive that whatever goes into the person from outside cannot defile him,
19 Paske, manje pa antre nan kè moun. Men, sa pase nan vant; apre, yo jete sa nan latrin. (Lè l' pale konsa, Jezi fè yo konprann tout manje bon.)
because it does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, then into the latrine, cleansing all the foods?"
20 Li di yo ankò: -Sa ki soti nan kè yon nonm, se sa ki mete l' nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka fè sèvis Bondye.
He said, "That which proceeds out of the man, that defiles the man.
21 Se nan kè yon moun, se anndan li tout move lide soti: lide fè ou fè tout move bagay, li fè ou vòlè, li fè ou touye moun;
For from within, out of a person's heart, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, sexual sins, murders, thefts,
22 li fè ou fè adiltè, li fè ou renmen lajan. Li rann ou mechan, fentè, li lage ou nan libètenaj, li ba ou gwo je, li fè ou pale moun mal, li fè ou gen lògèy, li rann ou fou.
covetings, wickedness, deceit, lustful desires, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, and foolishness.
23 Tout move bagay sa yo, se nan kè moun sa soti, se yo ki mete yon moun nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka fè sèvis Bondye.
All these evil things come from within, and defile the man."
24 Jezi kite kote li te ye a, li ale nan zòn ki nan vwazinaj lavil Tir la. li antre nan yon kay, li pa t' vle pesonn konnen li te la. Men, li pa t' kapab rete kache.
From there he arose, and went away into the region of Tyre and Sidon. He entered into a house, and did not want anyone to know it, but he could not escape notice.
25 Se konsa te gen yon fanm ki te gen yon pitit fi l' ak yon move lespri sou li. Li tande pale sou Jezi. Menm lè a, li kouri vin bò kote l', li lage kò l' nan pye Jezi.
But immediately a woman whose young daughter had an unclean spirit heard of him and came and fell at his feet.
26 (Fanm sa a pa t' jwif, se moun peyi Siri, nan yon seksyon yo rele Fenisi.) Li te fè Jezi demann sa a: -Tanpri souple, chase move lespri ki sou pitit fi m' lan.
Now the woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by race. She begged him that he would cast the demon out of her daughter.
27 Men Jezi di l' konsa: -Kite vant ti moun yo plen anvan; paske sa pa bon pou wete pen nan bouch timoun pou bay ti chen.
But he said to her, "Let the children be filled first, for it is not appropriate to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."
28 Fanm lan reponn li: -Se vre wi, Mèt. Men, ti chen ki anba tab manje ti kal pen timoun jete atè.
But she answered him, "Yes, Sir. Yet even the dogs under the table eat the children's crumbs."
29 Lè sa a Jezi di li: -Poutèt pawòl sa a, ou mèt al lakay ou: move lespri a soti sou pitit fi ou la.
He said to her, "For this saying, go your way. The demon has gone out of your daughter."
30 Lè fanm lan rive lakay li, li jwenn pitit la kouche byen trankil sou kabann lan. Move lespri a te gen tan soti sou li.
And when she went away to her house, she found the child lying on the bed, the demon having left.
31 Jezi kite zòn lavil Tir la. Li pase lavil Sidon, li travèse nan mitan peyi Dis Vil yo; li tounen lòt bò lanmè Galile a.
Again he departed from the borders of Tyre, and came through Sidon to the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the region of Decapolis.
32 Yo mennen yon nonm ba li: nonm lan te soudè epi li pa t' pale byen. Yo mande Jezi pou li mete men l' sou tèt nonm lan.
They brought to him one who was deaf and had a speech difficulty, and they begged Jesus to lay his hand on him.
33 Men Jezi pran men nonm lan, li fè l' soti nan mitan foul moun yo, li mennen l' sou kote. Li mete dwèt li nan zòrèy nonm lan, li krache, epi li manyen lang nonm lan.
He took him aside from the crowd, privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spat, and touched his tongue.
34 Apre sa, li leve je l' nan syèl la, li bay yon soupi. Li di: -Efata! (ki vle di: Louvri!)
Looking up to heaven, he sighed, and said to him, "Ephphatha." that is, "Be opened."
35 Latou, zòrèy nonm lan louvri, lang nonm lan demare nan bouch li epi li pran pale trè byen.
And his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was released, and he spoke clearly.
36 Jezi te mande yo tout pou yo pa t' di pesonn sa. Men plis li te defann yo pale se plis yo te mache pale bagay la.
He commanded them that they should tell no one, but the more he commanded them, so much the more widely they proclaimed it.
37 Moun yo te pi sezi ankò. Yo t'ap di: -Nonm sa a fè tout afè l' byen. Li fè soudè yo tande, li fè bèbè yo pale.
They were astonished beyond measure, saying, "He has done all things well. He makes even the deaf hear, and the mute speak."
