Lik 19
1 Li te antre Jéricho e t ap travèse.
And [Jesus] entered and passed through Jericho.
2 La te gen yon mesye yo te rele Zachée. Li te chèf a kolektè kontribisyon yo, e li te rich.
And, behold, [there was] a man named Zacchæus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.
3 Zachée t ap fè efò pou ta kab wè kilès Jésus te ye, paske li te piti nan tay.
And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.
4 Donk li te kouri devan yo, e li te monte yon pyebwa ki relesikomò pou l ta kapab wè Li, paske Li te gen pou pase pa la.
And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that [way].
5 Lè Jésus te rive nan lye a, Li te gade anlè, e te di: “Zachée, fè vit desann, paske jodi a fòk Mwen rete lakay ou.”
And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchæus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house.
6 Li te kouri desann, e te resevwa Li avèk jwa.
And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.
7 Lè yo te wè sa, yo tout te kòmanse plenyen pou di: “Li vin rete lakay a yon pechè.”
And when they saw [it], they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.
8 Zachée te kanpe e te di a Senyè a: “Gade byen, Senyè, menm mwatye sa ke m posede, m ap bay a malere yo, e si m te twonpe nenpòt moun de nenpòt bagay, mwen va remèt kat fwa sa.”
And Zacchæus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore [him] fourfold.
9 Jésus te di li: “Jodi a delivrans gen tan vini nan kay sa a, paske li menm tou, se yon fis Abraham.
And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
10 Paske Fis a Lòm nan vini pou chache e sove sa ki te pèdi.”
For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
11 Pandan yo t ap koute bagay sa yo, Li te kontinye bay yon parabòl, akoz ke Li te toupre Jérusalem, e yo te sipoze ke wayòm a Bondye a t ap parèt imedyatman.
And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear.
12 Akoz sa a, Li te di: “Yon sèten prens te vwayaje nan yon peyi byen lwen pou resevwa yon wayòm pou li menm, e answit, pou li retounen.
He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
13 Konsa, li te rele dis nan esklav li yo, e te bay yo dis min, e te di yo: “Fè biznis avèk sa jiskaske Mwen retounen.
And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.
14 “Men sitwayen li yo te rayi li, e yo te voye yon delegasyon dèyè l pou di: ‘Nou pa vle nonm sa renye sou nou.’
But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this [man] to reign over us.
15 “Lè l te retounen, apre li te resevwa wayòm nan, li te kòmande ke esklav sa yo ke li te bay kòb la, vin kote l pou li ta kapab konnen ki biznis yo te reyisi fè.
And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.
16 “Premye a te parèt e te di: Mèt, min ou an fè dis min anplis.”
Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
17 “Li te di li: ‘Trè byen fèt, bon esklav! Akoz ke ou fidèl nan yon ti bagay tou piti, vin pran otorite sou dis vil.’
And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.
18 “Dezyèm nan te vini, e te di: ‘Min ou an Mèt, li fè senk min anplis.’
And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.
19 Li te di li osi: ‘E w ap vin responsab senk vil.’
And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.
20 “Yon lòt te vini e te di: ‘Mèt, men min ou an ke m te konsève nan yon mouchwa;
And another came, saying, Lord, behold, [here is] thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:
21 paske mwen te pè ou, akoz ke ou menm se yon moun trè egzijan. Ou ranmase sa ke ou pa t depoze, e rekòlte sa ke ou pa t simen.’
For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.
22 “Li te di li: “Esklav mechan, pa pwòp pawòl ou, mwen va jije ou. Èske ou pa t konnen ke m se yon moun egzijan, ke m ranmase sa ke m pa t depoze, e rekòlte sa ke m pa t simen?
And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, [thou] wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:
23 ‘Alò, poukisa ou pa t mete kòb la labank, e lè m te vini, mwen ta twouve li avèk enterè?’
Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?
24 “Answit li te di a sila ki te kanpe la yo, ‘Tou pran min li an, e bay li a sila ki gen dis la.’
And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give [it] to him that hath ten pounds.
25 “Men yo te di li: ‘Mèt, li gen dis deja.’
(And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)
26 “Mwen di nou ke a tout moun ki gen, plis y ap resevwa, men a sila a ki pa genyen an, menm sa ke li genyen an va pran nan men l.
For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.
27 “Men lènmi M sa yo ki pa t vle M renye sou yo a, mennen yo isit la, e touye yo nan prezans mwen.”
But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay [them] before me.
28 Lè L fin pale bagay sa yo, Li te pran devan pou monte vè Jérusalem.
And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.
29 Lè L te pwoche Bethphagé ak Béthanie, toupre mòn ki rele Mòn Oliv la, Li te voye de nan disip Li yo devan.
And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called [the mount] of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
30 Li te di: “Ale nan vil anfas ou a. La, pandan nou ap antre, nou va twouve yon jenn bourik, sou li, moun poko monte menm. Demare l, mennen l vin isit la.
Saying, Go ye into the village over against [you]; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring [him hither].
31 Si Nenpòt moun mande nou poukisa nou ap demare li, se konsa nou va reponn: ‘Senyè a gen bezwen li.’”
And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose [him]? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.
32 Donk sila ki te voye yo te ale, e yo te twouve li jan ke li te di yo a.
And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them.
33 Pandan yo t ap demare jenn bourik la, mèt li te mande yo: “Poukisa nou ap demare jenn bourik la?”
And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?
34 Yo te di: “Senyè a gen bezwen li.”
And they said, The Lord hath need of him.
35 Yo te mennen l kote Jésus, epi yo te voye rad pa yo sou bourik la, e te mete Jésus sou li.
And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.
36 Pandan li t ap prale, yo t ap ouvri rad yo sou wout la.
And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
37 Lè L t ap pwoche toupre kote pou desann Mòn Oliv la, tout foul disip yo te kòmanse louwe Bondye avèk jwa e avèk yon gran vwa, pou tout mirak ke yo te wè yo.
And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
38 Yo t ap rele: “Beni se Wa a ki vini nan non Senyè a! Lapè nan syèl la, avèk glwa nan trè wo a!”
Saying, Blessed [be] the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
39 Kèk nan Farizyen yo ki te nan foul la, te di Li: “Mèt, reprimande disip ou yo!”
And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
40 Men Li te reponn e te di: “Mwen di nou, si sila yo rete an silans, menm wòch yo va pran rele.”
And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
41 Lè l te pwoche Jérusalem Li te wè vil la e Li te komanse kriye sou li.
And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
42 Li t ap di: “Si ou te konnen nan jou sa, menm ou menm, bagay ki konn fè lapè! Men koulye a, bagay sa yo kache de zye ou.
Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things [which belong] unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
43 “Paske jou yo ap vini sou ou lè lènmi ou yo va fè monte yon barikad devan ou, antoure ou, e kwense nou ladann tout kote.
For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
44 Konsa, yo va raze ou a nivo latè avèk zanfan ou tout ladann. Ni yo p ap kite nan ou menm yon wòch sou yon lòt, akoz ke ou pa t rekonèt lè ou te vizite a.”
And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
45 Jésus te antre nan tanp lan e te kòmanse pouse mete deyò sila ki t ap vann yo,
And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought;
46 Li te di yo: “Li ekri. ‘Lakay Mwen va yon kay lapriyè, men nou fè l vin yon kav vòlè.’”
Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.
47 Chak jou Li t ap enstwi nan tanp lan, men chèf prèt ak skrib yo avèk direktè yo pami pèp la t ap eseye detwi Li.
And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,
48 Men yo pa t kab twouve anyen ke yo ta kab fè, paske tout pèp la t ap akwoche sou chak pawòl Li te pale.
And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.
