Lik 3
1 Alò nan kenzyèm ane pouvwa a Tibère César a, pandan Ponce Pilate te Gouvènè Juda, Hérode te tetrak (wa a zòn sila a), frè l Philippe te tetrak pou Liturée avèk Trachonite, e Lysanias te tetrark nan Abilène,
In the fiftenthe yeare of the raygne of Tiberius the Emperoure Pontius Pylate beinge leftenaut of Iurie and Herode beinge Tetrach of Galile and his brother Philip Tetrach in Iturea and in the region of Traconites and Lysanias the Tetrach of Abyline
2 nan tan a Anne ak Caïphe kon wo prèt, pawòl Bondye a te vini a Jean, fis Zacharie a, pandan l te nan dezè a.
when Anna and Cayphas were the hye prestes: the worde of God came vnto Iohn ye sonne of zacharias in the wildernes.
3 Konsa, li te vini nan tout distri ki te antoure Jourdain yo, e li t ap preche yon batèm repantans pou padon peche yo.
And he came in to all the coostes aboute Iordan preachynge the baptyme of repentaunce for the remission of synnes
4 Jan sa ekri nan liv pawòl a Ésaïe yo, pwofèt la: “Lavwa a yon moun k ap kriye nan dezè a, ‘Prepare chemen SENYÈ a, Fè wout Li yo dwat,
at it is written in the boke of the sayinges of Esaias ye Prophet which sayeth: The voyce of a cryar in wyldernes prepare the waye of the Lorde make hys pathes strayght.
5 Chak vale va ranpli, E tout gwo mòn ak ti kolin va vin bese. Kwochi yo a va vin drese, E move wout yo va vin swa.
Every valley shalbe fylled and every moutayne and hyll shalbe brought lowe. And crocked thinges shalbe made streight: and the rough wayes shalbe made smoth:
6 Tout chè va wè delivrans Bondye a.’”
and all flesshe shall se the saveour sent of God.
7 Konsa, li te kòmanse pale avèk foul la ki te sòti avè l pou batèm nan: “Nou menm, nich vipè! Kilès ki te avèti nou sove kite kòlè k ap vini an?
Then sayde he to the people that were come to be baptysed of him: O generacion of vipers who hath taught you to flye from the wrath to come?
8 Pou sa, pote fwi ki an akò avèk repantans yo, e pa kòmanse di a nou menm: ‘Nou gen Abraham pou papa nou’, paske mwen di nou ke menm nan wòch sa yo, Bondye kapab fè leve pitit a Abraham yo.
Bringe forth due frutes of repentaunce and begynne not to saye in youre selves we have Abraham to oure father. For I saye vnto you: God is able of these stones to reyse vp chyldren vnto Abraham.
9 Anverite, rach la deja poze sou rasin a bwa yo. Konsa, chak bwa ki pa donnen bon fwi va koupe e jete nan dife.”
Now also ys the axe leyd vnto the rote of the trees: so yt every tree which bringeth not forth good frute shalbe hewe doune and caste in to ye fyre.
10 Foul la ki t ap kesyone li, t ap di: “Alò, kisa pou nou ta fè?”
And the people axed him sayinge: What shall we do then?
11 Li te reponn yo, e te di: “Ke moun ki gen de tinik lan pataje avèk sila ki pa genyen an, e ke sila ki gen manje a fè menm jan an.”
He answered and sayde vnto them: He that hath two coottes let him parte with him that hath none: and he that hath meate let him do lyke wyse.
12 Anplis, ajan kolektè kontribisyon yo te vini pou batize. Yo t ap mande l: “Mèt, kisa nou dwe fè?”
Then came ther Publicans to be baptised and sayde vnto him: Master what shall we do?
13 Li te di yo: “Pa kolekte plis ke yo mande nou pran.”
And he sayde vnto the: requyre no more then that which ys appoynted vnto you.
14 Konsa, kèk sòlda t ap mande li: “Epi kisa pou nou menm fè”? Li te di yo: “Pa pran lajan sou okenn moun pa lafòs, ni fè fo akizasyon kont pèsòn. Rete satisfè avèk salè nou.”
The soudyoures lyke wyse demaunded of hym sayinge: and what shall we do? And he sayde to them: Do violence to noo ma: nether trouble eny man wrongfully: but be content with youre wages.
15 Alò, pandan pèp la t ap antisipe, e t ap reflechi nan kè yo sou Jean, pou konprann si se Kris la ke li te ye,
As the people were in a doute and all men disputed in their hertes of Iohn whether he were very Christ:
16 Jean te reponn. Li te di yo tout: “Kanta mwen menm, mwen ap batize nou avèk dlo. Men gen Youn k ap vini ki pi pwisan pase m; menm lasèt sandal Li, mwen pa dign pou demare. Li va batize nou avèk Lespri Sen an, e avèk dife.
Ihon answered and sayde to them all: I baptyse you wt water but a stronger then I cometh after me whose shue latchet I am not worthy to vnlouse: he will baptise you with the holy goost and with fyre:
17 Laye vannen an deja nan men L, pou netwaye glasi a nèt, e ranmase tout ble antre nan depo Li; men l ap brile pay yo avèk dife ki pa kapab etenn.”
which hath his fanne in his hond and will pourge his floore and will gader the corne into his barne: but the chaffe wyll he bourne with fyre that never shalbe quenched.
18 Konsa, avèk anpil lòt egzòtasyon tou, Li te preche bòn nouvèl la bay pèp la.
And many other thinges in his exhortacion preached he vnto the people.
19 Men lè l te bay Hérode, tetrak la tò akoz Hérodias, madanm a frè l la, e akoz tout mechanste ke Hérode te fè yo,
Then Herode the Tetrach (when he was rebuked of him for Herodias his brother Philippes wyfe and for all the evyls which Herod had done)
20 Hérode te ogmante peche l sou sa yo. Li te vin mete Jean nan prizon.
added this above all and leyd Iohn in preson.
21 Konsa, li te vin rive ke lè tout pèp la t ap batize, Jésus te batize tou. Epi pandan Li t ap priye, syèl la te vin ouvri,
And yt fortuned as all the people receaved baptyme (and when Iesus was baptised and dyd praye) that heave was opened
22 e Lespri Sen an te desann sou Li nan fòm tankou yon toutrèl. E yon vwa te sòti nan syèl la: “Ou menm se Fis byeneme Mwen an; nan Ou menm, Mwen byen kontan.”
and the holy goost came doune in a bodely shape lyke a dove vpo him and a voyce came fro heve sayinge: Thou arte my dere sonne in the do I delyte.
23 Lè L te kòmanse ministè Li, Jésus Li menm te nan laj, anviwon trant ane, e selon kwayans moun yo, fis a Joseph, fis a Héli,
