Matye 9
1 Jezi moute nan kannòt la, li tounen lòt bò lanmè a ankò, nan lavil kote l' te ye a.
And he entered into a boat, and crossed over, and came into 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 look, they brought to him a man who was paralyzed, lying on a bed. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, "Son, cheer up. Your sins are forgiven."
3 Lè sa a, kèk dirèktè lalwa di nan kè yo: Nonm sa a ap pale mal sou Bondye.
And look, some of the scribes said to themselves, "This man blasphemes."
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?
But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, "Why do you think evil in your hearts?
5 Kisa ki pi fasil pou m' di: Peche ou yo padonnen, osinon: Leve mache?
For which is easier, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven;' or to say, 'Get 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 that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins..." (then he said to the paralytic), "Get up, and take up your mat, and go up to your house."
7 Nonm lan leve kanpe vre, li ale lakay li.
And he arose and departed to 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.
Now when the crowds saw it, they were afraid and glorified God who had given such authority 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 as Jesus passed by from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax collection office. He said to him, "Follow me." And he got up and 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 as he sat in the house, look, many tax collectors and sinners came and were reclining 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 when the Pharisees saw it, they 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.
When he heard it, he said to them, "Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick do.
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.
But you go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,' for I came not to call the righteous, 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 John's disciples came to him, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, 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, "Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will 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.
And no one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the patch would tear away from the garment, and a worse hole is made.
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 people put new wine into old wineskins, or else the skins would burst, and the wine pours out, and the skins ruined. No, they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and 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.
While he told these things to them, look, a ruler came and worshiped him, saying, "My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live."
19 Jezi leve, li swiv nonm lan. Disip li yo te ale avè l' tou.
And Jesus got up and followed him, as did 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 look, a woman who had an issue of blood for twelve years came behind him, and touched the fringe 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 just touch his garment, I will be made well."
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 around and seeing her, said, "Daughter, cheer up. 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 came into the ruler's house, and saw the flute players, and the crowd in noisy disorder,
24 Jezi di yo: Tout moun, soti. Tifi a pa mouri. Se dòmi l'ap dòmi. Yo pran pase l' nan betiz.
he said, "Go away, for the girl is not dead, but asleep." And they laughed at him.
25 Lè foul moun yo fin soti, Jezi antre nan chanm lan. Li pran men tifi a. Lamenm, tifi a leve.
But when the crowd was put out, he entered in, took her by the hand, and the girl arose.
26 Nouvèl la gaye nan tout peyi a.
And the report of this went out into all that 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 by from there, two blind men followed him, calling out and saying, "Have mercy 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 come into the house, the blind men came to him, and Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" They told him, "Yes, 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 be it done to 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 strictly commanded them, saying, "See that no one knows about this."
31 Men, ale yo ale, yo pran nonmen non l' toupatou nan peyi a.
But they went out and spread abroad his fame in 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.
And as they went out, look, a mute man who was demon possessed was brought to him.
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 when the demon was cast out, the mute man spoke. And the crowds were amazed, saying, "Nothing like this has ever 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 the demons, he casts 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 went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness.
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.
But when he saw the crowds, he was moved with compassion for them, because they were harassed and scattered, 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 plentiful, but the laborers are few.
38 Mande mèt jaden an pou li voye travayè nan jaden l' lan.
Pray therefore that the Lord of the harvest will send out laborers into his harvest."
