Lik 20
1 Nan youn nan jou ke Li t ap enstwi pèp la nan tanp lan, e preche bòn nouvèl la, chèf prèt yo avèk skrib yo avèk ansyen yo te vin parèt devan Li.
One day, as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts and preaching the gospel, the priests and the scribes came with the elders
2 Yo te mande Li: “Fè nou konnen pa ki otorite Ou fè bagay sa yo, oswa se kilès ki te bay Ou otorite sa a?”
and said to him, “Tell us, by what authority are yoʋ doing these things, or who is it that gave yoʋ this authority?”
3 Jésus te reponn yo: “Mwen ap poze nou yon kesyon, epi fè M konnen:
He answered them, “I will also ask you one question. Tell me:
4 Èske batèm a Jean an te sòti nan syèl la, oswa nan lòm?”
Did John's authority to baptize come from heaven or from men?”
5 Yo te rezone pami yo, e te di: “Si nou di ‘Nan syèl la’, l ap di: “Ebyen, poukisa nou pa t kwè li?
So they discussed it among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
6 Men si nou di: ‘Nan lòm’, tout pèp la va lapide nou avèk wòch jiskaske nou mouri, paske yo konvenk ke Jean te yon pwofèt.”
But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
7 Konsa, yo te reponn ke yo pa t konnen kote sa sòti.
So they answered that they did not know where it came from.
8 Jésus te reponn yo: “Ni Mwen p ap di nou pa ki otorite ke M fè bagay sa yo.”
Then Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
9 Li te kòmanse di pèp la parabòl sila a: Yon mesye te plante yon chan rezen. Li te lwe li a kiltivatè yo, e li te ale nan yon vwayaj ki te dire anpil.
Then he began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard, leased it to farmers, and left the country for a long time.
10 Nan tan rekòlt la, li te voye yon esklav kote kiltivatè yo pou yo ta kapab bay li kèk nan rekòlt chan an. Men ouvriye ki okipe lyàn rezen yo te bat li, e te voye li ale men vid.
At harvest time he sent a servant to the farmers so that they would give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat that servant and sent him away empty-handed.
11 Alò, li te eseye voye yon lòt esklav. Yo te bat li tou, e te maltrete l jiskaske se te yon eskandal. Konsa, yo te voye li ale men vid.
So he proceeded to send another servant, but they beat him also, treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.
12 Konsa, li te eseye voye yon twazyèm. Sila a osi yo te blese e te mete l deyò.
Then he proceeded to send a third, but they wounded him as well and threw him out.
13 Mèt chan an te di: “Kisa pou m ta fè la a? M ap voye fis byeneme mwen an. Petèt yo va respekte li.
So the owner of the vineyard said, ‘What should I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps when they see him they will have respect for him.’
14 Men lè ouvriye ki te okipe lyàn rezen yo te wè li, yo te rezone youn avèk lòt konsa: ‘Sa se eritye a. Annou touye li pou eritaj la kapab pou nou.’
But when they saw him, the farmers discussed it among themselves, saying, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him so that the inheritance will be ours.’
15 Donk yo te jete li deyò chan rezen an, e te touye li. Pou sa, kisa mèt chan rezen an ap fè yo?
So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16 Li va vin detwi ouvriye chan sa yo, e li va bay chan rezen an a lòt.” Lè yo te tande li, yo te di: “Pa janm kite sa fèt!”
He will come and destroy those farmers and give the vineyard to others.” When the people heard this, they said, “Certainly not!”
17 Alò, Li te gade yo, e te di: “Ebyen sou kilès sa ekri: ‘Wòch ke sila ki t ap bati yo te rejte a; sila a te devni lang prensipal la.’?
But Jesus looked at them and said, “What then is the meaning of this Scripture: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone’?
18 Tout moun ki tonbe sou wòch sa a, va kraze an mòso; men sou nenpòt moun ke li menm tonbe, l ap gaye li tankou pousyè.”
Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but anyone on whom it falls will be crushed.”
19 Skrib yo avèk chèf prèt yo te eseye mete men sou Li, nan menm lè sa a, men yo te pè pèp la. Paske yo te byen konprann ke Li te pale parabòl sa a kont yo menm.
Then the chief priests and the scribes wanted to arrest him at that very hour, for they knew he had spoken this parable against them, but they were afraid.
20 Donk yo te veye li, e te voye espyon ki te pretann ke se te moun jis yo te ye, pou yo ta kapab kenbe Li nan yon pawòl, pou yo ta kab livre Li devan lalwa a ak otorite gouvènè a.
So they watched him and sent spies who pretended to be sincere in order to catch him in something he said, so that they could deliver him up to the jurisdiction and authority of the governor.
21 Yo te poze Li kesyon. Yo te mande l: “Mèt, nou konnen ke Ou pale e enstwi byen dwat, ke Ou pa nan patipri a pèsòn, men enstwi chemen Bondye a ak verite.
The spies asked him, “Teacher, we know that yoʋ speak and teach correctly, and that yoʋ do not show partiality but teach the way of God in truth.
22 Èske Li pèmi pou nou peye taks a César, oubyen non?”
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
23 Men Li te konprann koken yo. Li te reponn yo:
But perceiving their craftiness, Jesus said to them, “Why are you testing me?
24 “Montre M yon kòb denye. Se pòtre avèk enskripsyon a kilès moun li genyen?” Yo te di: “César”.
Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription does it have?” They answered, “Caesar's.”
25 Li te di yo: “Pou sa, bay a César sa ki pou César, e a Bondye, sa ki pou Bondye.”
He said to them, “Then render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.”
26 Yo pa t kapab kenbe L nan yon pawòl nan prezans a pèp la; e byen etone pa repons Li, yo te vin rete an silans.
So they were not able to catch him in what he said in the presence of the people. And being amazed at his answer, they fell silent.
27 Alò kèk nan Sadiseyen yo te vin kote L, (sa yo ki di ke pa gen rezirèksyon).
Now some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, came up and asked Jesus,
28 Yo te kesyone L, konsa: “Mèt, Moïse te ekri pou nou ke si frè a yon mesye mouri avèk yon madanm, san li pa fè pitit, frè li a ta dwe pran madanm li, e fè reyisi yon posterite pou frè li a.
“Teacher, Moses wrote for us: ‘If a man's brother dies, leaving a wife but no children, that man must marry the widow and raise up offspring for his brother.’
29 Alò, konsa, te gen sèt frè. Premye a te pran yon madanm, e li te mouri san pitit.
Now there were seven brothers. The first married a woman and died childless.
30 Konsa, dezyèm nan,
The second married the widow, and he also died childless.
31 epi twazyèm nan te pran l. Epi menm jan an, tout nan sèt yo te pran l, e tout te mouri san kite pitit.
Likewise, the third also married her. In the same way all seven died, leaving no children.
32 Finalman, fanm nan te mouri tou.
Last of all, the woman also died.
33 Konsa, nan rezirèksyon an, se madanm a kilès l ap ye? Paske toule sèt moun yo te genyen li kòm madanm.”
In the resurrection, therefore, which of them will she be the wife of? For the seven all had her as a wife.”
Jesus answered them, “The people of this age marry and are given in marriage, (aiōn g165)
35 Men sila yo ki konsidere dign pou rive nan laj sila a, e rezirèksyon a mò yo, pa marye, ni yo pa bay moun nan maryaj. (aiōn g165)
but those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are they given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
36 Ni, yo pa kapab mouri ankò, paske yo tankou zanj, e se fis a Bondye, fis a rezirèksyon an.
Indeed they can no longer die, for they are like angels. They are sons of God, since they are sons of the resurrection.
37 Men ke mò yo leve, te montre menm pa Moïse nan pasaj sou touf bwa ki t ap boule a, kote li rele Senyè a Bondye Abraham nan, Bondye Isaac la ak Bondye a Jacob la. Alò, Li pa Bondye a mò yo, men Bondye a vivan an, pou tout sila ki
But even Moses indicated that the dead are raised, when he said in the passage about the burning bush, ‘The Lord, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
38 viv de Li yo.”
He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all are alive.”
39 Kèk nan skrib yo te reponn e te di: “Mèt, Ou pale byen.”
Then some of the scribes responded, “Teacher, yoʋ have spoken well.”
40 Paskeyo pa t gen kouraj pou poze L kesyon sou anyen ankò.
And they no longer dared to ask him anything.
41 Alò Li te di yo, “Kijan sa fèt ke yo di ke Kris la se Fis a David?
Then Jesus said to them, “How can it be said that the Christ is the Son of David?
42 Paske David, li menm di nan liv Sòm Yo: ‘Senyè a te di a Senyè mwen an, chita bò dwat Mwen,
Even David himself says in the Book of Psalms, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand
43 Jiskaske M fè lènmi ou yo yon ti ban pou lonje pye ou.”
until I make yoʋr enemies a footstool for yoʋr feet.”’
44 Konsa, David rele Li Senyè, e kijan se fis Li ke li ye a?’”
David calls him ‘Lord,’ so how is he his son?”
45 Pandan tout pèp la t ap koute, Li te di a disip yo:
As all the people were listening, Jesus said to his disciples,
46 “Fè atansyon de skrib yo ki renmen mache toupatou ak gwo abiman long, e ki renmen salitasyon respè nan mache yo, ak chèz pi enpòtan nan sinagòg yo, ak plas a lonè nan bankè yo;
“Beware of the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, and they love to be greeted in the marketplaces and to have the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.
47 ki devore kay a vèv yo, e pou yo ka pran pòz, yo ofri gwo priyè long yo. Sila yo va resevwa pi gwo kondanasyon.”
They devour widows' houses and for a pretense make long prayers. They will receive a more severe judgment.”
