< Jan 4 >

1 Pou sa, lè Senyè a te konnen Farizyen yo te tande Jésus t ap batize plis disip pase Jean
Therefore when the Lord knew, the pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2 (men Jésus Li menm pa t ap batize, men disip Li yo t ap fè l),
(though Jesus Himself did not baptize, but his disciples, )
3 li te kite Judée epi te pati ankò pou Galilée.
He left Judea, and departed again into Galilee.
4 Konsa, Li te oblije pase nan Samarie.
And as He must pass through the country of Samaria, He came to a Samaritan city called Sichar,
5 Li te vini nan yon vil Samarie yo rele Sychar, toupre moso tè ke Jacob te bay a Joseph, fis li.
near the piece of ground which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Pwi a Jacob la te la. Jésus, akoz Li te byen fatige pa vwayaj la, te chita akote pwi a. Se te anviwon sizyèm lè.
And Jacob's well was there. Now Jesus was tired with his journey, and sat down at the well: and it was about the sixth hour of the day,
7 Yon fanm Samariten te vini pou tire dlo nan pwi a. Jésus te di l: “Ban M bwè”.
when a woman of Samaria coming to draw water, Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
8 Paske disip li yo te ale nan vil la pou achte manje.
(For his disciples were gone away to the city to buy food.)
9 Konsa, fanm Samariten nan te reponn Li: “Kòman Ou menm, ki se yon Jwif mande M pou bwè lè mwen menm se yon fanm Samariten?” (Paske Jwif yo pa gen bon relasyon avèk Samariten yo.)
But the Samaritan saith unto Him, How is it that thou who art a Jew askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan? for the Jews have no friendly intercourse with the Samaritans.
10 Jésus te reponn e te di l: “Si ou te konnen don Bondye a, epi ki moun ki di ou ‘Ban M bwè a’, ou t ap mande L, e Li t ap bay ou dlo vivan an.”
Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith unto thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldst have asked of Him, and He would have given thee living water.
11 Li te di L: “Mesye, ou pa gen anyen pou rale l, epi pwi a fon. Ki kote konsa W ap twouve dlo vivan sila a?
The woman saith unto Him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: whence then hast thou the living water?
12 Èske Ou kapab pi gran pase papa zansèt nou yo Jacob, ki te bay nou pwi a, ki te bwè ladann li menm, avèk pitit li, ak bèt li yo?”
Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, and his children, and his cattle?
13 Jésus te reponn e te di li: “Tout moun ki bwè dlo sila a ap swaf ankò:
Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water, will thirst again;
14 Men nenpòt moun ki bwè dlo ke Mwen bay li a, p ap janm swaf. Men dlo ke Mwen bay li a ap vini nan li tankou yon pwi k ap bay dlo jiska lavi etènèl.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
but he that drinketh of the water which I shall give him, shall never thirst: but the water, which I shall give him, will be in him a fountain of water springing up unto eternal life. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
15 Fanm nan te di Li: “Mesye, ban m dlo sa a pou m pa swaf, ni pou m pa oblije vin jis isit la pou tire l.”
The woman saith unto Him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.
16 Li te di li: “Ale rele Mari ou, epi vin isit la.”
Jesus saith unto her, Go call thine husband, and come hither.
17 Fanm nan te reponn Li e te di: “Mwen pa gen mari.” Jésus te di li: “Ou pale byen: ‘Mwen pa gen mari.’
The woman answered, I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her, Thou hast said right, I have no husband:
18 Paske ou te genyen senk mari, epi sila a ke ou gen koulye a se pa mari ou. Ou pale verite.”
for thou hast had five husbands; and he, whom thou now hast, is not thy husband: this thou hast said true.
19 Fanm nan te reponn Li: “Mesye mwen konsidere ke Ou menm se yon pwofèt.
The woman saith unto Him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20 Papa zansèt nou yo te adore nan mòn sila a, men ou di ke se nan Jérusalem pou nou adore.”
Our fathers worshipped on this mountain, and ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Jésus te di li: “Fanm, kwè M, yon lè ap vini lè se pa ni nan mòn sa a, ni nan Jérusalem ke ou va adore Papa a.
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the time is coming, when ye shall worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
22 Ou adore sa ke ou pa konnen, men nou adore sa ke nou konnen, paske sali a sòti nan Jwif yo.
Ye worship ye know not what; but we worship what we know: for salvation is from the Jews.
23 “Men lè ap vini, e gen tan rive koulye a, lè vrè adoratè yo, va adore Papa a an espri, e anverite. Pwiske se moun konsa ke Papa a ap chache pou adore L.
But the time is coming, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for the Father requireth such worshippers of Him.
24 Bondye se lespri, e fòk sa yo ki adore Li, adore L an espri e anverite.”
God is a spirit, and they that worship Him, must worship in spirit and truth.
25 Fanm nan te di L: “Mwen konnen ke Mesye, (sila a ke yo rele Kris la) gen pou vini. Lè L vini, L ap deklare nou tout bagay.”
Then saith the woman unto Him, I know that the Messiah, that is to say the Christ, is coming; and when He comes, He will tell us all things.
26 Jésus te di li: “Mwen Menm k ap pale avèk ou a se Li.”
Jesus saith unto her, I, who am talking to thee, am He.
27 Nan moman sa a, disip Li yo te vini. Yo te etone ke Li t ap pale avèk yon fanm, men pèsòn pa t mande l: “Kisa w ap chache” ni “Poukisa w ap pale avè L.”
And upon this came his disciples and wondered that He talked with the woman: (though none of them said, What dost thou seek? or, Why dost thou talk with her?)
28 Konsa fanm nan te kite po dlo a e te antre nan vil la. Konsa, li te di a tout moun:
therefore the woman left her water-pot, and went away into the city,
29 “Vin wè yon nonm ki te di mwen tout bagay ke mwen fè. Nou pa sipoze ke se Li menm ki Kris la?”
and saith to the people, Come, see a man who hath told me all that ever I did; is not this the Christ?
30 Yo te kite lavil la e t ap vin kote l.
They therefore went out of the city, and came to Him.
31 Antre tan, disip yo t ap di L: “Rabbi, manje.”
In the mean time his disciples addressed Him, saying, Master, eat.
32 Men Li te di yo: “Mwen gen manje ke nou pa konnen.”
But He said unto them, I have food to eat, which ye know not of.
33 Pou sa disip yo t ap di a youn lòt: “Èske ou kwè ke moun pote bay Li kèk bagay pou L manje?”
Therefore the disciples said one to another, Hath any one brought Him aught to eat?
34 Jésus te di yo: “Manje M se pou fè volonte a Papa M ki voye Mwen an, e pou acheve travay Li a.
Jesus saith unto them, My food is to do the will of Him that sent me, and to finish his work.
35 “Èske nou pa konn di: ‘Genyen toujou kat mwa, epi rekòlt la ap vini?’ Gade, Mwen di nou leve zye nou epi gade chan yo. Yo blan avèk rekòlt la.
Do not ye say, it is yet four months, and then cometh harvest? Behold, lift up your eyes, and see the fields, they are already white for harvest.
36 “Deja sila a ki fè rekòlt la ap resevwa salè li, e l ap ranmase fwi pou lavi etènèl. Pou sila ki simen an, ak sila ki rekòlte a kapab rejwi ansanm. (aiōnios g166)
And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth the fruit together unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together; (aiōnios g166)
37 Paske nan sila a, pwovèb la vrè: ‘Youn ap simen epi yon lòt ap rekòlte.’
for herein the saying is verified, that one soweth, and another reapeth,
38 “Mwen te voye nou pou rekòlte kote nou pa t simen. Se lòt ki te travay, epi nou te antre nan travay yo.”
in as much as I have sent you to reap that on which ye have not laboured: others have laboured, and ye are entered into their labors.
39 Anpil nan Samariten ki sòti nan vil sa a te kwè nan Li, akoz pawòl yo ke fanm nan te bay kon temwayaj “Li te di mwen tout bagay ke mwen fè”.
And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on Him, because of what the woman said, testifying, He told me all that ever I did.
40 Lè Samariten yo te vin kote L, yo t ap mande Li pou rete avèk yo. Li te rete la pou de jou.
Therefore when the Samaritans came to Him, they desired Him to stay with them: and He staid there two days.
41 Anpil anplis te kwè nan Li akoz pawòl Li.
And many more believed on account of his own discourse:
42 Yo t ap di a fanm nan: “Se pa ankò akoz sa ou te di yo ke nou kwè. Nou te tande pou kont nou e konnen ke Sila a se Sovè a mond lan.”
and said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of what thou hast spoken; for we ourselves have heard Him, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.
43 Apre de jou Li te kite la, pou ale nan Galilée.
And after two days he departed thence, and went into Cana of Galilee.
44 Paske Jésus Li menm te bay temwayaj ke yon pwofèt pa gen lonè nan pwòp peyi li.
For Jesus himself had testified that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.
45 Konsa, lè Li rive nan Galilée, Galileyen yo te resevwa Li, paske yo te wè tout bagay ke Li te fè nan Jérusalem pandan fèt la, pwiske yo tout te ale nan fèt la.
And when He was come into Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all that he did in Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went to the feast.
46 Li te vini ankò nan vil Cana nan Galilée, kote Li te fè dlo tounen diven an. Te genyen yon ofisye wayal la, epi fis li te malad nan Capernaüm.
Therefore Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where He had made the water wine.
47 Lè Li te tande ke Jésus te sòti Judée pou L antre nan Galilée, li te ale kote L e te mande L pou desann avèk li pou geri fis li a, paske li te prèt pou mouri.
And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum: who, when he heard that Jesus was come out of Judea into Galilee, went to Him, and intreated Him, that he would come down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.
48 Pou sa, Jésus te di li: “Anmwenske nou wè sign ak mirak, nou p ap menm kwè.”
Jesus therefore said unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders ye will not believe.
49 Ofisye wayal la te di Li: “Mesye, vini avan pitit mwen an mouri.”
The nobleman saith unto Him, Lord, come down before my child die.
50 Jésus te di li: “Ou mèt ale. Pitit ou ap viv.” Mesye a te kwè Jésus epi te sòti.
Jesus saith unto him, Go, thy son is well. And the man believed what Jesus said unto him, and went his way.
51 Pandan li t ap desann, esklav li yo te rankontre li pou di li ke pitit la te vivan.
And as he was now going down, his servants met him and told him, saying, Thy son is well.
52 Li te mande yo kilè pitit la te kòmanse refè, e yo te di li: “Ayè sou setyèm lè lafyèv la te kite li.”
He inquired therefore of them the hour in which he grew better: and they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
53 Konsa papa li te konnen ke se te nan menm lè sa ke Jésus te di li: “Pitit ou a ap viv.” E li menm te kwè, epi tout lakay li ansanm avèk li.
So the father knew that it was in that same hour, in which Jesus said to him, Thy son is well. And he and his whole family believed.
54 Sa se te ankò dezyèm sign ke Jésus te fè lè Li te kite Judée pou L antre nan Galilée.
This is the second miracle that Jesus wrought, upon coming out of Judea into Galilee.
