Matye 9
1 Jezi moute nan kannòt la, li tounen lòt bò lanmè a ankò, nan lavil kote l' te ye a.
And climbing into a boat, he crossed the sea, and he arrived at his own city.
2 Se konsa, yo pote ba li yon nonm paralize kouche sou yon kabann. Jezi wè jan moun yo te gen konfyans nan li, li di nonm paralize a: Pran kouraj, pitit mwen, peche ou yo padonnen.
And behold, they brought to him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, “Be strengthened in faith, son; your sins are forgiven you.”
3 Lè sa a, kèk dirèktè lalwa di nan kè yo: Nonm sa a ap pale mal sou Bondye.
And behold, some of the scribes said within themselves, “He is blaspheming.”
4 Men, Jezi te gen tan konnen sa ki t'ap pase nan tèt yo. Li di yo: Poukisa n'ap fè move lide konsa nan tèt nou?
And when Jesus had perceived their thoughts, he said: “Why do you think such evil in your hearts?
5 Kisa ki pi fasil pou m' di: Peche ou yo padonnen, osinon: Leve mache?
Which is easier to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up and walk?’
6 Enben, m'ap fè nou konnen mwen menm, Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a, mwen gen pouvwa sou latè pou m' padonnen peche. Li vire, li di nonm paralize a: Leve kanpe, pran kabann ou, ale lakay ou.
But, so that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins,” he then said to the paralytic, “Rise up, take up your bed, and go into your house.”
7 Nonm lan leve kanpe vre, li ale lakay li.
And he arose and went into his house.
8 Lè moun yo wè sa, yo tout te pè, yo fè lwanj Bondye dapre li te bay lèzòm kalite pouvwa sa a.
Then the crowd, seeing this, was frightened, and they glorified God, who gave such power to men.
9 Jezi kite kote l' te ye a. Antan li t'ap pase konsa, li wè yon nonm yo te rele Matye ki te chita nan biwo kontribisyon an. Jezi di l' konsa: Swiv mwen. Matye annik leve, li swiv Jezi.
And when Jesus passed on from there, he saw, sitting at the tax office, a man named Matthew. And he said to him, “Follow me.” And rising up, he followed him.
10 Pita, Jezi t'ap manje nan kay la. Te gen anpil pèseptè kontribisyon ak moun k'ap fè sa ki mal ki te vin chita sou tab avè l' ansanm ak disip li yo.
And it happened that, as he was sitting down to eat in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners arrived, and they sat down to eat with Jesus and his disciples.
11 Farizyen yo wè sa, yo di disip li yo: Poukisa Mèt nou an ap manje konsa ak pèseptè kontribisyon ansanm ak moun k'ap fè sa ki mal yo?
And the Pharisees, seeing this, said to his disciples, “Why does your Teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
12 Jezi tande sa, li di yo: Si yon moun ansante, li pa bezwen dòktè. Se moun malad ki bezwen dòktè.
But Jesus, hearing this, said: “It is not those who are healthy who are in need of a physician, but those who have maladies.
13 Ale non, chache konprann sans pawòl sa yo ki nan Liv la: Mwen vle pou nou gen kè sansib. Mwen pa bezwen bèt n'ap ofri pou touye pou mwen yo. Paske, mwen pa vin rele moun k'ap mache dwat devan Bondye, men moun k'ap fè sa ki mal yo.
So then, go out and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the just, but sinners.”
14 Disip Jan Batis yo pwoche bò kot Jezi, yo di li: Nou menm ak farizyen yo, nou fè jèn. Men, poukisa disip ou yo pa fè jèn tou?
Then the disciples of John drew near to him, saying, “Why do we and the Pharisees fast frequently, but your disciples do not fast?”
15 Jezi reponn yo: Eske zanmi yon nonm k'ap marye kapab nan lapenn toutotan nonm k'ap marye a la ak yo? Non, pa vre? Men, lè lè a va rive pou l' pa nan mitan yo ankò, se lè sa a y'a fè jèn.
And Jesus said to them: “How can the sons of the groom mourn, while the groom is still with them? But the days will arrive when the groom will be taken away from them. And then they shall fast.
16 Pesonn pa pyese yon vye rad ak yon moso twal nèf. Paske, pyès nèf la va pati ak moso nan rad la. Lè sa a, rad la chire pi mal.
For no one would sew a patch of new cloth onto an old garment. For it pulls its fullness away from the garment, and the tear is made worse.
17 Konsa tou, yo pa mete diven ki fenk fèt nan vye veso fèt an po. Si ou fè sa, veso an po yo gen pou pete, diven an gen pou koule atè; epi ou pèdi veso yo tou. Men, yo mete diven ki fèk fèt nan veso an po ki fenk fèt tou. Konsa, ni diven an ni veso an po yo ap byen konsève.
Neither do they pour new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wineskins rupture, and the wine pours out, and the wineskins are destroyed. Instead, they pour new wine into new wineskins. And so, both are preserved.”
18 Antan Jezi t'ap pale konsa ak moun yo, yonn nan chèf jwif yo vin rive, li mete ajenou devan Jezi. Li di li: Pitit fi mwen an fèk mouri. Men, vin mete men ou sou li pou li ka viv.
As he was speaking these things to them, behold, a certain ruler approached and adored him, saying: “Lord, my daughter has recently passed away. But come and impose your hand upon her, and she will live.”
19 Jezi leve, li swiv nonm lan. Disip li yo te ale avè l' tou.
And Jesus, rising up, followed him, with his disciples.
20 Lè sa a, yon fanm ki te malad pwoche pa dèyè Jezi. Li te gen pèdisyon depi douzan. Li manyen rebò rad Jezi a,
And behold, a woman, who had suffered from a flow of blood for twelve years, approached from behind and touched the hem of his garment.
21 paske li t'ap di nan kè l': Si m' ka manyen rad li sèlman, m'a geri.
For she said within herself, “If I will touch even his garment, I shall be saved.”
22 Jezi vire tèt li, li wè fanm lan. Li di l' konsa: Pran kouraj, mafi. Konfyans ou nan Bondye ap geri ou. Menm lè a, fanm lan geri.
But Jesus, turning and seeing her, said: “Be strengthened in faith, daughter; your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that hour.
23 Lè Jezi rive kay chèf la, li wè mizisyen yo ki t'ap pare pou lantèman an, ansanm ak yon foul moun ki t'ap fè anpil bri.
And when Jesus had arrived in the house of the ruler, and he had seen the musicians and the tumultuous crowd,
24 Jezi di yo: Tout moun, soti. Tifi a pa mouri. Se dòmi l'ap dòmi. Yo pran pase l' nan betiz.
he said, “Depart. For the girl is not dead, but asleep.” And they derided him.
25 Lè foul moun yo fin soti, Jezi antre nan chanm lan. Li pran men tifi a. Lamenm, tifi a leve.
And when the crowd had been sent away, he entered. And he took her by the hand. And the girl rose up.
26 Nouvèl la gaye nan tout peyi a.
And the news of this went out to that entire land.
27 Jezi kite kote l' te ye a. Antan li t'ap pase yon kote, de avèg pran mache dèyè li. Yo t'ap rele: Pitit David, gen pitye pou nou!
And as Jesus passed from there, two blind men followed him, crying out and saying, “Take pity on us, Son of David.”
28 Lè Jezi rive nan kay la, avèg yo pwoche bò kote li. Jezi di yo: Eske nou kwè mwen ka fè sa pou nou? Yo reponn li: Wi, Mèt.
And when he had arrived at the house, the blind men approached him. And Jesus said to them, “Do you trust that I am able to do this for you?” They say to him, “Certainly, Lord.”
29 Lè sa a, li manyen je yo, li di: Se pou sa fèt pou nou jan nou kwè l' la.
Then he touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith, so let it be done for you.”
30 Je yo louvri. Jezi pale byen sevè ak yo, li di yo: Tande byen, piga pesonn konn sa.
And their eyes were opened. And Jesus warned them, saying, “See to it that no one knows of this.”
31 Men, ale yo ale, yo pran nonmen non l' toupatou nan peyi a.
But going out, they spread the news of it to all that land.
32 Antan avèg yo taprale, kèk lòt moun mennen yon nonm bay Jezi. Nonm sa a te bèbè, paske li te gen yon move lespri sou li.
Then, when they had departed, behold, they brought him a man who was mute, having a demon.
33 Chase Jezi chase move lespri a, bèbè a pran pale. Foul moun yo te sezi anpil. Yo t'ap di: Nou poko janm wè bagay konsa nan peyi Izrayèl.
And after the demon was cast out, the mute man spoke. And the crowds wondered, saying, “Never has anything like this been seen in Israel.”
34 Men, farizyen yo t'ap di: Se chèf move lespri yo ki ba l' pouvwa pou chase move lespri yo.
But the Pharisees said, “By the prince of demons does he cast out demons.”
35 Jezi t'ap mache nan tout lavil yo ak tout ti bouk yo. Li t'ap moutre moun yo anpil bagay nan sinagòg yo. Li t'ap fè konnen Bon Nouvèl Peyi kote Bondye Wa a. Li t'ap geri tout kalite maladi ak tout kalite enfimite.
And Jesus traveled throughout all of the cities and towns, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Gospel of the kingdom, and healing every illness and every infirmity.
36 Lè Jezi wè tout bann moun sa yo, kè l' fè l' mal pou yo paske li wè yo te bouke, yo te dekouraje, tankou yon bann mouton san gadò.
Then, seeing the multitudes, he had compassion on them, because they were distressed and were reclining, like sheep without a shepherd.
37 Lè sa a, li di disip li yo: Rekòt la anpil, men manke travayè pou ranmase l'.
Then he said to his disciples: “The harvest indeed is great, but the laborers are few.
38 Mande mèt jaden an pou li voye travayè nan jaden l' lan.
Therefore, petition the Lord of the harvest, so that he may sent out laborers to his harvest.”
