Jan 11
1 Alò, yon sèten mesye te malad. Lazare a Béthanie, vilaj kote Marie ak sè li Marthe te rete a.
Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Mary and her sister, Martha.
2 Se te sè Lazare, Marie ki te onksyone Senyè a avèk lwil chè a, epi te siye pye Li avèk cheve li. Se frè li, Lazare, ki te malad.
It was that Mary who had anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother, Lazarus, was sick.
3 Konsa, sè yo te voye kote Li pou di L: “Senyè, sila ke ou renmen an malad.”
The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, "Lord, look, the one you love is sick."
4 Men lè Jésus te tande sa, Li te di: “Maladi sa a se pa a lanmò, men pou glwa Bondye, pou Fis a Lòm nan kapab resevwa glwa de li.”
But when Jesus heard it, he said, "This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that God's Son may be glorified by it."
5 Konsa, Jésus te renmen Marthe ak sè li, ak Lazare.
Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
6 Pou sa, lè L tande ke Li te malad, Li te rete de jou anplis nan plas kote Li te ye a.
When therefore he heard that he was sick, he stayed two days in the place where he was.
7 Apre sa, Li te di a disip Li yo: “Annou ale nan Judée ankò.”
Then after this he said to the disciples, "Let us go into Judea again."
8 Disip Li yo te di Li: “Rabbi, fenk koulye a Jwif yo t ap eseye lapide Ou, epi W ap prale la ankò?”
The disciples told him, "Rabbi, the Jewish leaders were just trying to stone you, and are you going there again?"
9 Jésus te reponn yo: “Èske pa gen douz è de tan nan yon jounen? Si yon moun mache nan lajounen a li p ap chape tonbe, paske li wè limyè a mond sila a.
Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours of daylight? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
10 Men si yon moun mache lannwit, l ap tonbe, paske limyè a pa nan li.”
But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him."
11 Sa, Li te di, epi apre sa, Li te di yo: “Zanmi nou Lazare gen tan tonbe nan dòmi. Men m ap prale pou M ka fè l leve nan dòmi.”
He said these things, and after that, he said to them, "Our friend, Lazarus, has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep."
12 Konsa, disip Li yo te di L: “Senyè, si li tonbe nan dòmi, l ap refè.”
Then the disciples said to him, "Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover."
13 Alò Jésus t ap pale de lanmò Li, men yo te konprann ke Li t ap pale de yon vrè dòmi.
Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep.
14 Pou sa, Jésus te di yo byen klè: “Lazare gen tan mouri,
So Jesus said to them plainly then, "Lazarus is dead.
15 e pou koz pa nou, Mwen kontan ke M pa t la pou nou kapab kwè. Annou ale kote l.”
I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless, let us go to him."
16 Pou sa, Thomas, ke yo rele osi Didyme, te di disip parèy li yo: “Annou ale avèk Li pou nou kapab mouri avè L.”
Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, "Let us go also, that we may die with him."
17 Konsa, lè Jésus te vini, Li te twouve ke Li te deja nan tonm nan depi kat jou.
So when Jesus came, he found that he had been in the tomb four days already.
18 Béthanie te prè Jérusalem. Anviwon twa kilomèt distans.
Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles away.
19 Anpil nan Jwif yo te deja vin kote Marthe ak Marie pou konsole yo konsènan frè yo.
Many of the Jewish people had come to Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.
20 Pou sa, lè Marthe te tande ke Jésus t ap vini, li te ale rankontre Li. Men Marie te toujou chita nan kay la.
Then when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary stayed in the house.
21 Konsa, Marthe te di a Jésus: “Senyè, si Ou te la, frè m nan pa t ap mouri.
Therefore Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if you would have been here, my brother would not have died.
22 Menm koulye a, mwen konnen ke nenpòt bagay ke Ou mande Bondye, Bondye ap bay Ou li.”
Even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you."
23 Jésus te di li: “Frè ou ap leve ankò.”
Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."
24 Marthe te reponn Li: “Mwen konnen ke li ap leve ankò nan rezirèksyon an nan dènye jou a.”
Martha said to him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day."
25 Jésus te reponn Li: “Mwen se rezirèksyon an ak lavi a. Moun ki kwè nan Mwen va viv, menm si li mouri.
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies.
And whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?" (aiōn g165)
27 Li te di Li: “Wi, Senyè, Mwen gen tan kwè ke Ou se Kris la, Fis a Bondye, menm Li menm ki vini nan mond lan.”
She said to him, "Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, he who comes into the world."
28 Lè li te di sa, li te ale, e te rele Marie, sè li, e te di l apa: “Mèt la rive, e L ap mande pou ou.”
And when she had said this, she went away, and called Mary, her sister, secretly, saying, "The Teacher is here, and is calling you."
29 E lè li tande sa, li te leve vit, epi t ap vin kote Li.
When she heard this, she arose quickly, and went to him.
30 Jésus poko te rive nan bouk la, men te toujou nan plas kote Marthe te rankontre Li a.
Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha met him.
31 Jwif yo ki t ap konsole li nan kay la te wè l leve vit e sòti. Epi yo sipoze ke li t ap ale nan tonm nan pou kriye.
Then the Judeans who were with her in the house, and were consoling her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep there.
32 Konsa, lè Marie te vini kote Jésus, li te tonbe nan pye Li, e te di L: “Senyè, si Ou te isit la, frè m nan pa t ap mouri.”
Therefore when Mary came to where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, "Lord, if you would have been here, my brother would not have died."
33 Konsa, lè Jésus te wè l t ap kriye, epi Jwif ki te avè l yo t ap kriye, Li te vrèman etone nan fon lespri Li, e te twouble.
When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Judeans weeping who came with her, he was deeply moved in spirit and was troubled,
34 Li te di: “Kibò nou mete Li?” Yo te di Li: “Senyè, vin wè.”
and said, "Where have you put him?" They told him, "Lord, come and see."
35 Jésus te kriye.
Jesus wept.
36 E Jwif yo t ap di: “Gade kijan Li te renmen l.”
The Judeans therefore said, "See how he loved him."
37 Men kèk nan yo te di: “Èske nonm sila a ki te louvri zye a sa ki te avèg la, pa t kab anpeche moun sa a mouri osi?”
But some of them said, "Could not this man, who opened the eyes of him who was blind, have also kept this man from dying?"
38 Pou sa, Jésus, ankò, etone byen fon nan lespri li, te vin bò kote tonm nan. Se te yon kav e yon wòch te apiye sou Li.
So Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it.
39 Jésus te di: “Retire wòch la.” Marthe, sè mò a te di Li: “Senyè, pou lè sa, li va santi. Li la depi kat jou.”
Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, "Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days."
40 Jésus te di li: “Èske Mwen pa t di ou ke si Ou kwè, ou va wè glwa Bondye?”
Jesus said to her, "Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see God's glory?"
41 Epi konsa, yo te retire wòch la. Jésus te leve zye Li e te di: “Papa, Mwen remèsye Ou ke Ou tande M.
So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, "Father, I thank you that you listened to me.
42 Mwen te konnen ke Ou tande M tout tan, men akoz pèp la ki kanpe antoure M, Mwen te di sa, pou yo kapab kwè ke Ou te voye Mwen.”
I know that you always listen to me, but because of the crowd that stands around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me."
43 Lè L fin te di bagay sa yo, Li te kriye avèk yon gwo vwa: “Lazare, sòti deyò.”
When he had said this, he shouted with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out."
44 E sila ki te mouri an te sòti byen mare men ak pye yo avèk twal ki te vlope l, e yon twal ki te vlope figi li. Jésus te di yo: “Demare l epi lage l.”
The man who had died came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Free him, and let him go."
45 Pou sa, anpil nan sa ki te vin kote Marie yo, e ki te wè sa Li te fè a, te kwè nan Li.
Therefore many of the Judeans, who came to Mary and had seen the things which he did, believed in him.
46 Men kèk nan yo te ale nan Farizyen yo e te di yo sa ke Jésus te fè a.
But some of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them the things which Jesus had done.
47 Konsa, chèf prèt yo avèk Farizyen yo te konvoke yon gran konsèy. Yo t ap di: “Kisa n ap fè, pwiske nonm sila a ap fè anpil sign.”
The chief priests therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, "What are we doing? For this man does many signs.
48 “Si nou kite Li kontinye konsa, tout moun ap kwè nan Li, epi Women yo ap vin pran ni plas nou, ni nasyon nou.”
If we leave him alone like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation."
49 Men youn nan yo, Caïphe, ki te granprèt pou lane sila a, te di yo: “Nou pa konnen anyen,
But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all,
50 ni nou pa kontwole ke li ta meyè pou nou si yon moun ta mouri pou pèp la, pou tout nasyon an pa peri.”
nor do you consider that it is advantageous for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish."
51 Alò li pa t di sa pou kont li, men akoz ke li te wo prèt nan lane sa a, li t ap fè pwofesi ke Jésus t ap mouri pou nasyon an.
Now he did not say this of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,
52 E pa sèlman pou nasyon sila a, men ke Li ta kab ranmase ansanm pou fè yon sèl, tout pitit Bondye ki te gaye a letranje yo.
and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.
53 Depi jou sa, yo t ap fè plan pou touye L.
So from that day on they plotted to kill him.
54 Pou sa, Jésus pa t ankò mache an piblik pami Jwif yo, men te kite la pou ale nan peyi toupre dezè a, nan yon vil yo rele Éphraïm. Li te rete la avèk disip Li yo.
Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Judeans, but departed from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim; and stayed there with his disciples.
55 Alò, Pak Jwif la te pwòch, epi anpil te kite andwa andeyò yo pou monte nan Jérusalem, pou yo ta kab vin pirifye.
Now the Jewish Passover was near, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.
56 Konsa, yo t ap di youn ak lòt pandan yo kanpe nan tanp lan: “Kisa nou panse. Èske Li p ap menm vini nan fèt la?”
Then they sought for Jesus and spoke one with another, as they stood in the temple, "What do you think—that he is not coming to the feast at all?"
57 Alò, chèf prèt yo ak Farizyen yo te bay lòd pou si nenpòt moun te konnen kote Li te ye, yo dwe bay rapò pou yo ta kab sezi L.
Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where he was, he should report it, that they might arrest him.
