Mak 8
1 Menm epòk sa a, yon gwo foul moun te sanble ankò. Yo pa t' gen anyen pou yo manje. Jezi rele disip li yo, li di yo konsa:
In those days, there being, again a large multitude, and they not having any thing to eat, calling near the disciples, he saith unto them—
2 -Kè m' fè m' mal pou moun sa yo. Sa fè twa jou depi yo la avè m', yo fin manje tou sa yo te pote.
I am moved with compassion towards the multitude, because, already three days, abide they with me, and they have nothing to eat;
3 Si m' voye yo al lakay yo konsa san manje, y'a tonbe feblès nan chemen paske gen ladan yo ki soti byen lwen.
and, if dismiss them fasting unto their home, they will be exhausted in the way, —and, certain of them, are, from afar.
4 Disip li yo reponn li: -Nan dezè sa a, ki bò poun jwenn pen pou plen vant tout moun sa yo?
And his disciples answered him—Whence shall any one be able, here, to fill, these, with bread, in a desert?
5 Jezi mande yo: -Konbe pen nou gen la a? Yo reponn: -Nou gen sèt pen.
And he was questioning them—How many loaves have ye? and they said—Seven.
6 Lè sa a, li fè foul moun yo chita atè; li pran sèt pen yo; li di Bondye mèsi, li kase yo an moso, li renmèt yo bay disip li yo pou yo mache bay tout moun. Disip yo mache bay tout moun pen.
And he sendeth word to the multitude, to fall back upon the ground. And, taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, he brake, and was giving unto his disciples, that they might be setting before them; and they set before the multitude.
7 Te gen kèk ti pwason la tou. Jezi di Bondye mèsi pou yo tou, li mande disip li yo mache bay tout foul moun yo.
And they had a few small fishes; and, blessing them, he bade them set, these also, before them.
8 Tout moun te manje vant plen. Yo plen sèt panyen pote ale avèk moso ki te rete.
And they did eat, and were filled, and took up remainders of broken pieces, seven hampers.
9 Te gen katmil (4.000) moun konsa antou. Apre sa, Jezi voye yo ale.
Now they were about four thousand; and he dismissed them.
10 Touswit apre sa, li moute nan kannòt la avèk disip li yo, li ale nan yon peyi yo rele Dalmanouta.
And, straightway, entering into the boat with his disciples, he came into the parts of Dalmanutha;
11 Farizyen yo vin rive. Yo tanmen diskite avèk Jezi: yo te vle pran li nan pèlen. Yo mande l' pou l' fè yon mirak ki pou moutre se Bondye ki ba li tout pouvwa sa a.
and forth came the Pharisees, and began discussing with him, seeking of him, a sign from the heaven, testing him.
12 Jezi bay yon gwo soupi nan kè l', li di yo konsa: -Poukisa moun alèkile yo renmen mande mirak konsa? Se vre wi sa m'ap di nou la a: yo p'ap jwenn okenn mirak.
And, deeply sighing in his spirit, he saith—Why, doth this generation seek, a sign? Verily, I say—there shall, not be given, to this generation, a sign.
13 Apre sa, li vire do l' ba yo, li tounen nan kannòt la; li pati pou lòt bò lanmè a.
And leaving them, again, embarking, he departed unto the other side.
14 Men, disip yo te bliye pran lòt pen: yo te gen yon sèl grenn pen avè yo nan kannòt la.
And they forgot to take loaves, and, save one loaf, they had nothing with them in the boat.
15 Jezi ba yo lòd sa a: -Fè atansyon. Pran prekosyon nou avèk ledven farizyen yo ansanm avèk ledven Ewòd la.
And he began charging them, saying—Mind! beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod!
16 Disip yo pran pale pou kont yo, yonn t'ap di lòt: -Se paske nou pa gen pen kifè l' di nou sa.
And they began deliberating one with another, because they had no loaves.
17 Jezi vin konnen sa yo t'ap di konsa. Li mande yo: -Poukisa n'ap di: se paske nou pa gen pen? Se konnen nou pa konnen? Nou poko ka konprann toujou? Se bouche lespri nou bouche konsa?
And, taking note, he saith unto them—Why do ye deliberate, because ye have no, loaves? Not yet perceive ye, neither understand, —keep ye your hearts, hardened?
18 Gen lè nou pa wè nan je nou? Nou pa tande nan zòrèy nou? Se bliye nou gen tan bliye?
Eyes having, see ye not? and ears having, hear ye not? and remember ye not
19 Lè m' te separe senk pen bay senkmil (5,000) moun yo, konbe panyen plen moso nou te pote ale? Yo reponn li: -Douz panyen.
when, the five loaves, I brake unto the five thousand, how many baskets, full of broken pieces, ye took up? They say unto him—Twelve, —
20 Jezi mande yo anko: -Lè m' te separe sèt pen bay katmil (4.000) moun yo, konbe panyen plen moso nou te pote ale? Yo reponn li: -Sèt panyen.
When the seven, unto the four thousand, how many hampers, full measure, of broken pieces, ye took up? And they say unto him—Seven. And he was saying unto them—
21 Lè sa a li di yo: -Nou pa konprann toujou?
Not yet, do ye understand?
22 Apre sa, y' ale Betsayda. Yo mennen yon nonm avèg bay Jezi. Yo mande li pou l' te manyen li.
And they come into Bethsaida. And they bring unto him one blind, and beseech him that him, he would touch.
23 Jezi pran men avèg la, li mennen l' soti nan bouk la. Li pran ti gout krache, li mete nan je avèg la. Apre sa, li mete men l' sou tèt avèg la: Li mande li: -Eske ou wè kichòy?
And, laying hold of the hand of the blind man, he brought him forth outside the village, and, spitting into his eyes, laying his hands upon him, he was asking him—Anything, seest thou?
24 Avèg la louvri je l', li di: -Mwen wè moun k'ap mache; yo sanble pyebwa.
and, looking up, he was saying—I see men, because, like trees, I behold them walking
25 Jezi remete men l' ankò nan je l' yo. Lè sa a, avèg la wè klè nèt. Li te geri, li te wè tout bagay klè.
Then again, put he his hands upon his eyes, and he saw clearly, and was restored, and was seeing distinctly, in broad splendour, all things together.
26 Jezi voye l' al lakay li, li di l' konsa: -Pa antre nan bouk la.
And he sent him away unto his house, saying—Not even into the village, mayest thou enter.
27 Jezi pati apre sa avèk disip li yo; li ale nan tout bouk ki te nan rejyon Sezare Filip la. Antan yo t'ap mache, li poze yo keksyon sa a: -Ki moun yo di mwen ye en?
And forth went Jesus and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea of Philip. And, in the way, he was questioning his disciples, saying unto them—Who, are men saying that I am?
28 Yo reponn li: -Gen moun ki di se Jan Batis ou ye. Gen lòt ki di ou se Eli; gen lòt ankò ki di ou se yonn nan pwofèt yo.
And they answered him, saying—John the Immerser, and, others, Elijah, —and, others, One of the prophets.
29 Li mande yo ankò: -Bon, nou menm, ki moun nou di mwen ye? Pyè reponn li: -Ou se Kris la.
And, he, went on to question them—But, who, say, ye, that I am? Peter, answering, saith unto him—Thou, art, the Christ.
30 Lè sa a, Jezi ba yo lòd byen sevè pou yo pa di pèsonn sa.
And he straitly charged them, that, no one, they should tell concerning him.
31 Apre sa, li kòmanse di disip li yo yon bann bagay. Li di yo konsa: -Mwen menm, Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a, mwen gen pou m' soufri anpil. Chèf fanmi yo, chèf prèt yo, dirèktè lalwa yo, yo yonn p'ap vle wè mwen. Y'ap fè touye m'. Men sou twa jou, mwen gen pou m' leve soti vivan pami mò yo.
And he began to be teaching them—The Son of Man, must needs suffer many things, and be rejected by the Elders and the High-priests and the Scribes, —and be slain; and, after three days, arise.
32 Li t'ap pale konsa aklè ak yo. Pyè rele l' sou kote, li di li: -Pa pale konsa non.
And, openly, was he speaking the word. And Peter, taking him aside, began to rebuke him.
33 Men Jezi vire tèt li, li gade disip li yo. Li pale sevè ak Pyè, li di li konsa: -Wete kò ou sou mwen, Satan! Paske, lide ou pa sou sa Bondye vle, men sou sa lèzòm ta vle.
But, he, turning round and looking upon his disciples, rebuked Peter, and saith—Withdraw behind me, Satan! because thou art not regarding the things, of God, but the things, of men.
34 Lè sa a Jezi rele foul moun yo ansanm avèk disip li yo, li di yo konsa: -Si yon moun vle mache dèyè m', se pou l' bliye tèt li, se pou l' chaje kwa l' sou zepòl li epi swiv mwen.
And, calling near the multitude with his disciples, he said unto them—If anyone willeth, after me, to come, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and be following me.
35 Paske, moun ki ta vle sove lavi l' va pèdi li. Men, moun ki va pèdi lavi l' poutèt mwen ak bon nouvèl la, li va sove li.
For, whosoever willeth, his own life, to save, shall lose it, but, whosoever shall lose his life for the sake [of me and] of the glad-message, shall save it;
36 Kisa sa ta sèvi yon moun pou li ta genyen lemonn antye si l' pèdi lavi li?
For, what doth it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and be made to forfeit his life?
37 Ou ankò, kisa yon nonm kapab bay pou l' gen lavi?
For what can a man, give, in exchange for his life?
38 Si yon moun wont di se moun mwen li ye, si li wont pale pawòl mwen nan mitan bann moun alèkile yo ki vire do bay Bondye pou viv nan peche, enben, mwen menm tou, Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a, lè m'a tounen avèk zanj Bondye yo nan tout bèl pouvwa Papa m' lan, m'a wont pran li pou moun pa m' tou.
For, whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also, will be ashamed, of him, whensoever he shall come, in the glory of his Father, with the holy messengers.
