Mak 8
1 Nan jou sa yo, lè te gen ankò yon gwo foul ki pa t gen anyen pou yo manje, Jésus te rele disip Li yo. Li te di yo:
In those days, again, when there was a great crowd, and they did not have anything to eat, calling together his disciples, he said to them:
2 “Mwen santi konpasyon pou foul la pwiske yo rete avèk Mwen koulye a pandan twa jou, e yo pa gen anyen pou yo manje.
“I have compassion for the multitude, because, behold, they have persevered with me now for three days, and they do not have anything to eat.
3 Si Mwen voye yo lakay yo grangou, y ap fennen nan wout la, e gen nan yo ki sòti yon bon distans.”
And if I were to send them away fasting to their home, they might faint on the way.” For some of them came from far away.
4 Disip Li yo te reponn Li: “Kote yon moun kapab jwenn ase pen isit la pou satisfè moun sa yo nan yon andwa izole konsa”?
And his disciples answered him, “From where would anyone be able to obtain enough bread for them in the wilderness?”
5 Li te mande yo: “Konbyen moso pen nou genyen?” Yo te di Li: “Sèt”.
And he questioned them, “How many loaves do you have?” And they said, “Seven.”
6 Konsa, Li te fè yo chita atè. Li te pran sèt pen yo, e te kase yo an mòso. Li te kòmanse bay yo a disip Li yo pou sèvi yo, e yo te bay yo a foul la.
And he instructed the crowd to sit down to eat on the ground. And taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, he broke and gave it to his disciples in order to place before them. And they placed these before the crowd.
7 Anplis yo te genyen kèk ti pwason. Lè L fin beni yo, Li te kòmande sa yo anplis pou separe bay.
And they had a few small fish. And he blessed them, and he ordered them to be placed before them.
8 Yo te manje e yo te satisfè. Yo te ranmase sèt gwo panyen plen avèk moso kase ki te rete.
And they ate and were satisfied. And they took up what had been leftover from the fragments: seven baskets.
9 Te gen anviwon kat mil ki te la. Konsa, Li te voye yo ale.
And those who ate were about four thousand. And he dismissed them.
10 Nan menm moman sa a, Li te antre nan kannòt la avèk disip Li yo, pou te rive nan peyi yo rele Dalmanutha a.
And promptly climbing into a boat with his disciples, he went into the parts of Dalmanutha.
11 Farizyen yo te parèt e yo te kòmanse diskite avè L. Yo te mande L yon sign ki sòti nan syèl la pou teste li.
And the Pharisees went out and began to contend with him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, testing him.
12 Avèk yon gwo soupi ki sòti nan lespri Li, Li te di: “Poukisa jenerasyon sila a ap chèche yon sign? Anverite Mwen di nou: Nanpwen sign k ap parèt a jenerasyon sila a.”
And sighing deeply in spirit, he said: “Why does this generation seek a sign? Amen, I say to you, if only a sign will be given to this generation!”
13 Lè L fin kite yo, Li te monte kannòt la pou te ale lòtbò.
And sending them away, he climbed into the boat again, and he went away across the sea.
14 Yo te bliye pran pen, e pa t gen plis ke yon moso nan kannòt la avèk yo.
And they forgot to take bread. And they did not have any with them in the boat, except one loaf.
15 Li te avèti yo pou di: “Veye byen! Fè atansyon kont ledven Farizyen yo, ak ledven Hérode la!”
And he instructed them, saying: “Consider and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the leaven of Herod.”
16 Konsa, yo te kòmanse diskite youn avèk lòt pwoblèm ke yo pa t gen pen an.
And they discussed this with one another, saying, “For we have no bread.”
17 Jésus te konprann sa byen, e te di yo: “Poukisa nou ap pale afè pen an? Èske nou poko wè ni konprann? Èske nou gen kè di?
And Jesus, knowing this, said to them: “Why do you consider that it is because you have no bread? Do you not yet know or understand? Do you still have blindness in your heart?
18 Malgre nou gen zye, èske nou pa wè? E malgre nou gen zòrèy, èske nou pa tande? E èske nou pa sonje
Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear? Do you not remember,
19 lè Mwen te kase senk pen yo pou senk mil moun, konbyen panyen plen avèk moso kase nou te ranmase?” Yo te di Li: “Douz”.
when I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments you took up?” They said to him, “Twelve.”
20 “Epi lè Mwen te kase sèt pou kat mil moun yo, konbyen gwo panyen plen avèk moso kase nou te ranmase?” Yo te di li: “Sèt”.
“And when the seven loaves were among the four thousand, how many baskets of fragments did you take up?” And they said to him, “Seven.”
21 Li te mande yo: “Èske nou poko menm konprann?”
And he said to them, “How is it that you do not yet understand?”
22 Yo te rive Bethsaïda. Moun yo te pote bay Li yon mesye avèg e yo te sipliye L pou te touche l.
And they went to Bethsaida. And they brought a blind man to him. And they petitioned him, so that he would touch him.
23 An pran mesye avèg la pa men li, Li te mennen l sòti nan vil la. Lè L fin krache sou zye li e mete men L sou li, Li te mande l: “Èske ou pa wè anyen?”
And taking the blind man by the hand, he led him beyond the village. And putting spit on his eyes, laying his hands on him, he asked him if he could see anything.
24 Konsa, li te leve tèt li gade e te di: “Mwen wè moun. Konsi mwen wè yo tankou pyebwa k ap mache toupatou.”
And looking up, he said, “I see men but they are like walking trees.”
25 Ankò Li te mete men Li sou zye li. Li te gade byen fiks, e li te vin restore. Konsa, li te wè tout bagay byen klè.
Next he placed his hands again over his eyes, and he began to see. And he was restored, so that he could see everything clearly.
26 Li te voye li lakay li e te di: “Pa menm antre nan vil la.”
And he sent him to his house, saying, “Go into your own house, and if you enter into the town, tell no one.”
27 Jésus te sòti avèk disip Li yo pou lantre nan vilaj Césarée Philippe. Sou wout la Li te diskite ak disip Li yo. Li te mande yo: “Kilès moun yo di ke Mwen ye?”
And Jesus departed with his disciples into the towns of Caesarea Philippi. And on the way, he questioned his disciples, saying to them, “Who do men say that I am?”
28 Yo te di Li: “Jean Baptiste, e kèk lòt Élie, men lòt, youn nan pwofèt yo”.
And they answered him by saying: “John the Baptist, others Elijah, still others perhaps one of the prophets.”
29 Li te kesyone yo plis; “Men kilès nou menm nou di ke Mwen ye?” Pierre te reponn e te di Li: “Ou menm se Kris la.”
Then he said to them, “Yet truly, who do you say that I am?” Peter responded by saying to him, “You are the Christ.”
30 Konsa, Li te avèti yo pou pa di pèsòn anyen sou Li menm.
And he admonished them, not to tell anyone about him.
31 Li te kòmanse enstwi yo ke Fis a Lòm nan t ap oblije soufri anpil bagay, vin rechte pa ansyen yo avèk chèf prèt ak skrib yo, e touye. E apre twa jou, Li ta resisite ankò.
And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and by the high priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
32 Li t ap pale bagay la byen klè. Konsa, Pierre te mennen L akote e te kòmanse repwoche L.
And he spoke the word openly. And Peter, taking him aside, began to correct him.
33 Men lè l te vire gade dèyè, Li te wè disip Li yo, e Li te repwoche Pierre, e te di l: “Mete ou dèyè M, Satan! Paske ou p ap mete panse ou sou enterè Bondye a, men enterè lòm.”
And turning away and looking at his disciples, he admonished Peter, saying, “Get behind me, Satan, for you do not prefer the things that are of God, but the things that are of men.”
34 Li te rele foul la avèk disip Li yo. Li te di yo: “Si yon moun vle swiv Mwen, fòk li renonse pwòp tèt li, pran kwa li, e swiv Mwen.
And calling together the crowd with his disciples, he said to them, “If anyone chooses to follow me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
35 Paske nenpòt moun ki vle sove vi li, va pèdi li; men nenpòt moun ki pèdi vi li akoz Mwen ak levanjil la, ap sove li.
For whoever will have chosen to save his life, will lose it. But whoever will have lost his life, for my sake and for the Gospel, shall save it.
36 “Paske kisa sa sèvi a yon nonm si l genyen tou lemonn men l pèdi nanm li?
For how does it benefit a man, if he gains the whole world, and yet causes harm to his soul?
37 Paske kisa yon nonm ap bay an echanj pou nanm Li.
Or, what will a man give in exchange for his soul?
38 “Paske nenpòt moun ki wont de Mwen menm avèk pawòl Mwen, nan jenerasyon adiltè e konwonpi sila a, Fis a Lòm nan ap wont de li menm tou lè Li vini nan glwa a Papa Li avèk zanj sen yo.”
For whoever has been ashamed of me and of my words, among this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of man also will be ashamed of him, when he will arrive in the glory of his Father, with the holy Angels.”
