1 Alò kon yon sèl kò, yo te leve pou mennen L devan Pilate.
The whole company of them rose up and brought Jesus before Pilate.
2 Yo te kòmanse akize L, e te di: “Nou te twouve mesye sa t ap egare nasyon nou an, e t ap anpeche yo peye kontribisyon yo bay César, e te di ke Li menm, Li se Kris la, yon Wa.”
They began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man perverting our nation, forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ, a king.”
3 Donk Pilate te mande Li: “Èske Ou se Wa a Jwif yo?” Epi Li te reponn li: “Se sa ou di l la”.
Pilate asked him, saying, “Are you the King of the Jews?” Jesus answered him and said, “You say so.”
4 Answit Pilate te di a chèf prèt yo avèk foul la: “Mwen pa twouve okenn koupabilite nan mesye sa a”.
Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, “I find no fault in this man.”
5 Men yo te kontinye ensiste, e t ap di: “L ap boulvèse pèp la, e L ap enstwi yo toupatou nan Juda, kòmanse soti nan Galilée, pou menm rive nan plas sa a.”
But they were insisting, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.”
6 Men lè Pilate te tande sa, li te mande si mesye sa a te yon Galileyen.
So when Pilate heard this, he asked whether the man was a Galilean.
7 Lè l te vin aprann ke Li te anba otorite Hérode, li te voye Li vè Hérode, ki te osi nan Jérusalem nan moman sa a.
When he discovered that he was under Herod's authority, he sent Jesus to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem in those days.
8 Alò, Hérode te trè kontan lè l te wè Jésus; paske li te vle wè L depi lontan, akoz ke li t ap tande de Li, e te espere wè l fè kalite mirak ki te fèt pa Li.
When Herod saw Jesus, he was very glad, because he had wanted to see him for a long time. He had heard about him and he hoped to see some miracle done by him.
9 Li te kesyone Li anpil, men Li pa t reponn li menm.
Herod questioned Jesus in many words, but Jesus answered him nothing.
10 Chèf prèt yo avèk skrib yo te kanpe la, e t ap akize Li avèk vanjans.
The chief priests and the scribes stood, violently accusing him.
11 Epi lè Hérode avèk sòlda li yo, te fin trete L avèk ensolans, e moke L, yo te fè L abiye ak yon bèl manto, e te voye Li retounen bay Pilate.
Herod with his soldiers insulted Jesus and they mocked him. Then they dressed him in elegant clothes and sent him back to Pilate.
12 Alò nan menm jou sa a, Hérode avèk Pilate te vin zanmi youn avèk lòt men avan sa, yo te lènmi youn ak lòt.
For Herod and Pilate had become friends with each other that very day, for before this they had been enemies with each other.
13 Pilate te rasanble chèf prèt yo avèk ofisye yo avèk pèp la.
Pilate then called together the chief priests and the rulers and the crowd of people,
14 Li te di yo: “Nou te mennen nonm sa a kote mwen tankou yon moun ki t ap pouse pèp la a rebelyon, e gade byen, selon egzamen ki fèt devan nou, mwen pa twouve okenn koupabilite nan Li, selon chaj ke nou fè kont Li yo.
and said to them, “You brought to me this man like a man who is leading the people to act badly, and see, I, having questioned him before you, find no fault in this man concerning those things of which you accuse him.
15 Non, ni Hérode pa twouve anyen, paske li te voye Li tounen bò kote nou; epi byen gade, anyen ki merite lanmò pa t fèt pa Li.
No, nor does Herod, for he sent him back to us, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.
16 Konsa, mwen va pini Li, epi lage Li.”
I will therefore punish him, and release him.”
17 Alò li te oblije lage pou yo yon prizonye nan fèt la.
18 Men yo te kriye fò tout ansanm, e te di: “Fè nonm sa ale! Libere pou nou Barabbas!”
But they cried out all together, saying, “Away with this man, and release to us Barabbas!”
19 (Li te yon moun ki te jete nan prizon pou yon rebelyon ki te fèt nan vil la, ak pou touye moun.)
Barabbas was a man who had been put into prison for a certain rebellion in the city and for murder.
20 Pilate, ki te vle lage Jésus, te pale avèk yo ankò,
Pilate addressed them again, desiring to release Jesus.
21 men yo te kontinye kriye fò, e te di: “Krisifye! Krisifye Li!”
But they shouted, saying, “Crucify him, crucify him.”
22 Li te di yo yon twazyèm fwa: “Poukisa? Ki mal mesye sa a fè? Mwen pa twouve nan Li okenn fot ki mande lanmò. Konsa, mwen va pini Li, epi lage Li.”
He said to them a third time, “Why, what evil has this man done? I have found nothing deserving the death penalty in him. Therefore after punishing him, I will release him.”
23 Men yo te ensiste toujou, e t ap mande ak gwo vwa pou Li krisifye. Epi vwa pa yo te kòmanse vin genyen.
But they were insistent with loud voices, demanding for him to be crucified. Their voices convinced Pilate.
24 Konsa, Pilate te pase lòd ofisyèl pou sede bay yo sa yo te mande a.
So Pilate decided to grant their demand.
25 Li te libere mesye ke yo t ap mande a, ki te jete nan prizon pou rebelyon ak touye moun nan, men li te livre Jésus kon volonte pa yo.
He released the one they asked for who had been put in prison for rioting and murder. But he delivered up Jesus to their will.
26 Lè yo te mennen L sòti, yo te mete men sou yon Simon de Cyrène ki t ap sòti andeyò, e te mete kwa a sou li pou l ta pote l dèyè Jésus.
As they led him away, they seized one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and they laid the cross on him to carry, following Jesus.
27 Yon gran foul nan pèp la t ap swiv Li, avèk fanm yo ki t ap kriye e fè lamantasyon pou Li.
A great crowd of the people, and of women who grieved and mourned for him, were following him.
28 Men Jésus, te vin vire vè yo, e te di: “Fi Jérusalem yo, sispann kriye pou Mwen, men kriye pou nou menm, ak pou pitit nou yo.
But turning to them, Jesus said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
29 Paske, veye byen, jou yo ap vini lè yo va di: ‘Beni se sila ki esteril yo, e vant ki pa t janm fè pitit yo, ak tete ki pa t janm bay timoun tete yo.’
For see, the days are coming in which they will say, 'Blessed are the barren and the wombs that did not bear, and the breasts that did not nurse.'
30 Alò, yo va kòmanse di a mòn yo: ‘Tonbe sou nou, e a ti kolin yo, kouvri nou.’
Then they will begin to say to the mountains, 'Fall on us,' and to the hills, 'Cover us.'
31 Paske si yo fè bagay sa yo avèk bwa ki vèt, kisa k ap rive lè l sèch.”
For if they do these things while the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”
32 De lòt mesye ki te kriminèl yo t ap mennen sòti pou mete a lanmò avèk Li.
Other men, two criminals, were led away with him to be put to death.
33 Lè yo te rive nan plas yo rele Plas Tèt Mò a, yo te krisifye Li avèk kriminèl yo, youn sou bò dwat, e youn sou bò goch.
When they came to the place that is called “The Skull,” there they crucified him, and the criminals—one on his right and one on his left.
34 Men Jésus t ap di: “Papa, padone yo; paske yo pa konnen kisa y ap fè.” Epi yo te tire osò pou divize vètman Li pami yo menm.
Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” Then they cast lots, dividing up his garments.
35 Pèp la te kanpe akote, e t ap gade. Menm ofisye yo t ap moke L, e t ap di: “Li te sove lòt yo, kite Li sove pwòp tèt Li si se Kris a Bondye a, Sila Ke Li Chwazi a.”
The people stood watching while the rulers also were mocking him, saying, “He saved others. Let him save himself, if he is the Christ of God, the chosen one.”
36 Sòlda yo osi ki t ap moke Li, te vin kote L, pou ofri Li diven si.
The soldiers also ridiculed him, approaching him, offering him vinegar,
37 Yo t ap di: “Si Ou se Wa a Jwif yo, sove tèt Ou!”
and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself.”
38 Alò te gen yon enskripsyon anwo Li: “Sa Se Wa a Jwif Yo”.
There was also a sign over him, “This is the King of the Jews.”
39 Youn nan kriminèl ki te pann yo t ap voye pawòl abizif vè Li; li t ap di: “Èske se pa Kris la Ou ye? Sove tèt Ou, avèk nou!”
One of the criminals who was hanging there insulted him by saying, “Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us.”
40 Men lòt la te reponn ak repwòch e te di: “Èske ou pa menm pè Bondye, paske ou anba menm lòd kondanasyon an?
But the other rebuked him, saying, “Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence?
41 Epi nou menm avèk jistis, paske nou ap resevwa sa ke nou merite pou zèv nou yo; men mesye sila a pa fè okenn mal.”
We indeed are here justly, for we are receiving what we deserve for our deeds. But this man did nothing wrong.”
42 Konsa li te di: “Jésus, sonje mwen lè Ou antre nan wayòm Ou an!”
Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.”
43 Li te reponn li: “Anverite Mwen di ou, jodi a, ou va avè M nan Paradi.”
Jesus said to him, “Truly I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
44 Alò se te anviwon sizyèm lè, e tenèb te tonbe sou tout latè jiska nevyèm lè.
It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour
45 Solèy la te kache nèt, e vwal tanp lan te chire an de bout.
as the sun's light failed. Then the curtain of the temple was split in two.
46 Jésus te kriye avèk yon gwo vwa, e te di: “Papa, nan men Ou Mwen remèt lespri Mwen.” Lè L fin di sa, Li te respire dènye souf Li.
Crying with a loud voice, Jesus said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” Having said this, he died.
47 Alò, lè santenye a te wè sa ki te rive a, li te kòmanse bay lwanj a Bondye, e te di: “Anverite, mesye sa a te inosan.”
When the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, “Surely this was a righteous man.”
48 Alò tout foul la ki te vini ansanm pou espektak sila a, lè yo te wè sa ki te rive a, yo te retounen e t ap bat lestomak yo.
When all the multitudes who came together to witness this sight saw the things that were done, they returned beating their breasts.
49 Epi tout sila ki te rekonèt Li yo, ak fanm Galilée ki te akonpanye Li yo, te kanpe a yon distans e t ap gade tout bagay sa yo.
But all those who knew him, and the women who followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.
50 Yon mesye ki te rele Joseph, yon manm Konsèy la, te yon nonm ki te bon e jis.
Behold, there was a man named Joseph, who was a member of the Council. He was a good and righteous man.
51 Li pa t dakò avèk plan yo a. Se te yon mesye ki te soti Arimathée, yon vil a Jwif yo, e li t ap tann vini wayòm Bondye a.
This man had not agreed with the decision of the Council and their action. He was from the Judean town of Arimathea; and he was looking for the kingdom of God.
52 Mesye sila a te ale kote Pilate, e te mande kò Jésus.
This man, approaching Pilate, asked for the body of Jesus.
53 Konsa, li te desann kò li, li te vlope li nan yon twal lèn, e li te depoze li nan yon tonbo ki te fouye nan wòch, kote pèsòn pa t janm te depoze.
He took it down, wrapped it in fine linen, and placed it in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no one had ever been laid.
54 Se te Jou Preparasyon an, e Saba te prèt pou kòmanse.
It was the Day of the Preparation, and the Sabbath was about to begin.
55 Alò fanm ki te vini avèk Li yo depi Galilée te swiv, e te wè tonm nan ak jan kò L te depoze a.
The women who had come with Jesus out of Galilee followed and saw the tomb and how his body was laid.
56 Answit yo te retounen pou prepare epis avèk pafen. Epi nan Saba a, yo te repoze selon Lalwa a.
They returned, and prepared spices and ointments. Then on the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
