Matye 15
1 Lè sa a, kèk farizyen ak dirèktè lalwa soti Jerizalèm, yo vin bò kot Jezi. Yo di li:
Then some Scribes and Pharisees of Jerusalem addressed him, saying,
2 Poukisa disip ou yo pa swiv koutim granmoun lontan yo? Gade. Yo pa lave men yo anvan yo manje.
Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders; for they was not their hands before meals.
3 Li reponn yo: Nou menm k'ap pale a, poukisa n'ap plede dezobeyi kòmandman Bondye yo pou nou swiv koutim pa nou yo?
Jesus answering, saud to them, Why do you yourselves by your tradition, transgress the commandment of God?
4 Tande byen. Bondye di nou konsa: Respekte papa ou ak manman ou. Li di ankò: Si yon moun pale papa l' osinon manman l' mal, se pou yo touye l'.
For God has commanded, saying, "Honor father and mother"; and "Whosoever reviles father or mother, let him be punished with death."
5 Men nou menm, nou di: Si yon moun di papa l' osinon manman l': Sa m' ta gen pou m' ba ou a, m' ofri l' bay Bondye,
But you affirm, If a man say to father or mother, I devote whatever of mine shall profit you,
6 moun sa a pa bezwen fè anyen pou papa l' osinon pou manman l'. Se konsa, avèk koutim nou yo, nou fè pawòl Bondye a pase pou anyen menm.
he shall not afterward honor by his assistance, his father or his mother. Thus, by your tradition, you annul the commandment of God.
7 Bann ipokrit! Ezayi te gen rezon lè l' t'ap pale sou nou, jan sa ekri a:
Hypocrites, well do you suit the character which Isaiah gave of you, saying,
8 Se nan bouch pèp sa a respekte mwen. Men, kè yo byen lwen mwen.
"This people honor me with their lips. though their heart is estranged from me.
9 Se tan yo y'ap pèdi, lè y'ap fè sèvis pou mwen. Paske, nan sa y'ap di, se pawòl lèzòm y'ap moutre moun.
But in vain they worship me, while they teach institutions merely human."
10 Apre sa, li rele foul moun yo, li di yo: Koute byen sa m'ap di nou la a, manyè konprann sa:
Then, having called the multitude, he said to them, Hear, and be instructed.
11 Se pa bagay ki antre nan bouch yon moun ki ka mete l' nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka sèvi Bondye. Men se sak soti nan bouch li ki ka mete l' nan kondisyon sa a.
It is not what goes into the mouth pollutes the man; but it is what proceeds out of the mouth, that pollutes the man.
12 Lè sa a, disip li yo pwoche bò kote l', yo di l' konsa: Ou konnen farizyen yo ofiske poutèt sa ou sot di la a.
On which his disciples accosting him, said, Did you observe how the Pharisees, when they heard that saying were offended?
13 Jezi reponn yo: Si se pa Papa m' nan syèl la ki plante yon plant, yo gen pou yo derasinen li.
He answered, Every plant, which my heavenly Father has not planted, shall be extirpated.
14 Pa okipe yo! Se yon bann avèg k'ap mennen avèg parèy yo. Si yon avèg ap mennen yon lòt avèg, tou de gen pou tonbe nan menm twou a.
Let them alone. They are blind leaders of the blind; and if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into the ditch.
15 Pyè pran lapawòl, li di Jezi konsa: Esplike nou parabòl sa a non.
Then Peter addressing him, said, Explain to us that parable.
16 Jezi di: Nou menm tou, nou san konprann toujou!
Jesus answered, Are you also void of understanding?
17 Nou pa konprann pawòl sa a: Tout bagay ki antre nan bouch yon moun, sa pase nan vant li. Apre sa, li soti deyò.
Do you not apprehend, that whatever enters the mouth passes into the stomach, and is thrown out into the sink.
18 Men, bagay ki soti nan bouch yon moun, se nan kè l' sa soti. Se bagay konsa ki mete yon moun nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka sèvi Bondye.
But that which proceeds out of the mouth, issues from the heart, and so pollutes the man.
19 Se nan kè l' tout move lide soti, lide touye moun, lide fè adiltè ak tout lòt bagay ki pa dakò ak volonte Bondye tankou lide vòlò, lide fè manti sou moun, lide bay manti.
For out of the heart proceed malicious contrivances, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false testimonies, calumnies.
20 Se bagay sa yo ki mete yon moun nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka sèvi Bondye. Men, keksyon manje san lave men, jan yo di l' la, sa pa ka mete yon moun nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka sèvi Bondye.
These are the things which pollute the man; but to eat with unwashed hands pollutes not the man.
21 Jezi kite kote l' te ye a, li ale nan zòn lavil Tir ak lavil Sidon.
Then Jesus withdrew into the confines of Tyre and Sidon;
22 Se konsa, yon fanm, moun peyi Kanaran ki t'ap viv nan zòn lan, vin jwenn li. Li pran rele: Mèt, pitit wa David la, pitye pou mwen. Pitit fi m' lan gen yon move lespri sou li k'ap fatige l' anpil.
and behold! a Canaanitish woman of these territories came to him, crying, Master, Son of David, have pity on me; my daughter is grievously afflicted by a demon.
23 Men, Jezi pa okipe li menm. Disip li yo pwoche bò kote l', yo di l' konsa: Fè l' ale non. Paske, l'ap mache dèyè nou, l'ap plede rele nan zòrèy nou.
But he gave her no answer. Then his disciples interposed, and entreated him, saying, Dismiss her, for she clamors after us.
24 Jezi reponn: Se sèlman pou moun ki pèdi nan ras Izrayèl la yo voye mwen.
He answering said, My mission is only to the lost sheep of the stock of Israel.
25 Men, fanm lan vini, li lage kò l' nan pye Jezi, li di li konsa: Mèt, fè kichòy pou mwen non.
She, nevertheless, advanced, and prostrating herself before him, said, O Lord, help me.
26 Jezi reponn li: Sa pa bon pou m' wete pen nan bouch timoun yo pou m' jete l' bay chen.
He replied, It is not seemly to take the children's bread, and throw it to the dogs.
27 Lè sa a fanm lan di li: Se vre wi, Mèt. Men, chen manje ti kal pen ki tonbe anba tab mèt li.
True, Sir, returned she. Yet even the dogs are allowed the crumbs which fall from their master's table.
28 Lè sa a, Jezi di li: Madanm. Ou gen konfyans anpil. Tout bagay ap pase pou ou jan ou vle l' la. Menm lè a, pitit fi l' la geri.
Then Jesus, answering, said to her, O woman! great is your faith. Be it to you as you desire. And that instant her daughter was healed.
29 Jezi kite kote l' te ye a, li mache sou bò lanmè Galile a. Li moute sou yon ti mòn, li chita la.
Jesus having left that place, came nigh to the sea of Galilee, and repaired to a mountain, where he sat down;
30 Yon bann moun vin jwenn li. Yo mennen moun k'ap bwete, moun ki avèg, bèbè, enfim ansanm ak anpil lòt moun malad ankò. Yo mete yo nan pye Jezi. Jezi geri yo.
and great multitudes flocked to him, bringing with them the lame, the blind, the dumb, the cripple, and several others, whom they laid at his feet; and he healed them:
31 Foul moun yo te sezi anpil lè yo wè sa: bèbè yo pale, enfim yo geri, moun k'ap bwete yo mache dwat, avèg yo wè. Lè sa a, yo pran fè lwanj Bondye pèp Izrayèl la.
insomuch that the people beheld, with admiration, the dumb speaking, the cripple sound, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they glorified the God of Israel.
32 Jezi rele disip li yo, li di: Kè m' fè m' mal pou moun sa yo. Sa fè twa jou depi yo la avè m', yo pa gen anyen pou yo manje ankò. Mwen pa vle voye yo ale konsa san manje. Yo ka tonbe feblès nan chemen an.
Then Jesus called to him his disciples, and said, I have compassion on the multitude because they have now attended me three days, and have nothing to eat; I will not dismiss them fasting, lest they faint by the way.
33 Disip yo mande li: Nan dezè sa a, ki bò pou nou jwenn pen pou bay tout moun sa yo manje?
His disciples answered, Whence can we get bread enough, in the solitude, to satisfy such a crowd?
34 Jezi mande yo: Konbe pen nou gen konsa? Yo reponn li: Nou gen sèt pen ak kèk ti pwason.
He asked them, How many loaves have you? They said, Seven, and a few small fishes.
35 Lè sa a, Jezi fè foul moun yo chita atè.
Then commanding the people to recline upon the ground,
36 Li pran sèt pen yo ak pwason yo, li di Bondye mèsi, li kase yo an moso, li renmèt yo bay disip li yo. Disip yo menm mache bay tout moun.
he took the seven loaves and the fishes, which, having given thanks, he divided and gave to his disciples, who distributed them among the people.
37 Tout moun te manje plen vant yo. Disip yo plen sèt panyen pote ale ak moso ki te rete yo.
When all had eat, and were satisfied, they carried off seven hand-baskets full of the fragments that remained.
38 Te gen antou katmil (4.000) gason ki te jwenn manje pou yo manje, san konte fanm ak timoun.
Now they that had eat were four thousand men, besides women and children.
39 Apre sa, Jezi voye foul moun yo ale, li menm li moute nan kannòt la, li ale nan yon peyi yo rele Magadan.
Then having dismissed the multitude, he embarked, and sailed to the coast of Magdala.
