Matye 12
1 Nan lè sa a, Jésus te pase nan chan sereyal yo nan jou Saba a e disip Li yo te vin grangou. Yo te kòmanse keyi tèt grenn sereyal pou manje yo.
At that time, Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grain fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.
2 Men lè Farizyen yo te wè sa, yo te di Li: “Gade, disip Ou yo fè sa ki pa pèmi nan yon jou Saba.”
But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, “Behold, your disciples do what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.”
3 Men Li te di yo: “Èske nou pa li sa ke David te fè lè li te vin grangou; li menm avèk lòt moun ki te avè l yo?
But he said to them, “Haven’t you read what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him:
4 Jan li te antre nan kay Bondye a, e te manje pen ki te konsakre ki pa t pèmi pou li ta manje, ni pou sa yo ki te avè l yo, men te sèlman pou prèt yo?
how he entered into God’s house and ate the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?
5 Oubyen èske nou pa t li nan Lalwa a ke nan jou Saba a, prèt yo nan tanp lan te konn vyole Saba a men rete inosan?
Or have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless?
6 Men Mwen di nou ke yon choz pi gran pase tanp lan isit la.
But I tell you that one greater than the temple is here.
7 Men si nou te konnen kisa sa vle di: ‘Mwen dezire mizerikòd olye sakrifis’, nou pa t ap kondane inosan yo.
But if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you wouldn’t have condemned the guiltless.
8 Paske Fis a Lòm nan se Senyè Saba a.”
For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
9 Konsa, Li te kite la e te ale nan sinagòg yo.
He departed from there and went into their synagogue.
10 Epi vwala, te gen yon mesye avèk yon men ki sèch. Farizyen yo te mande L: “Èske li pèmi pou geri nan jou Saba a?” Yo te mande sa a pou yo ta kapab akize Li.
And behold, there was a man with a withered hand. They asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?” so that they might accuse him.
11 Li te reponn yo: “Ki moun nan sila ki pami nou yo, si li te gen yon mouton ki tonbe nan yon twou nan Saba a, pa t ap lonje pran l e fè l sòti nan twou a?
He said to them, “What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if this one falls into a pit on the Sabbath day, won’t he grab on to it and lift it out?
12 Konbyen plis valè a yon moun pase yon mouton? Ebyen, li pèmi pou fè sa ki bon nan Saba a.”
Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day.”
13 Konsa, Li di mesye a: “Lonje men ou!” Li te lonje li, e li te retounen nòmal tankou lòt la.
Then he told the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out; and it was restored whole, just like the other.
14 Men Farizyen yo te soti deyò, pou fè konplo ansanm kont Li, sou kijan yo ta kapab detwi L.
But the Pharisees went out and conspired against him, how they might destroy him.
15 Men Jésus te vin konnen tout sa, e Li te retire kò l. Anpil moun te swiv Li, e Li te geri yo tout.
Jesus, perceiving that, withdrew from there. Great multitudes followed him; and he healed them all,
16 Epi Li te pase lòd pou yo pa fè pèsòn konnen ki moun Li te ye.
and commanded them that they should not make him known,
17 Sa te fèt pou akonpli sa ki te pale pa pwofèt Ésaïe a lè li te di:
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
18 “Gade sèvitè Mwen ke Mwen te chwazi a; byeneme Mwen ki fè nanm Mwen byen kontan an. M ap mete lespri Mwen sou Li, e Li va pwoklame jistis a payen yo.
“Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit on him. He will proclaim justice to the nations.
19 Li p ap diskite, ni kriye; ni pèsòn p ap tande vwa Li nan lari.
He will not strive, nor shout, neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
20 Yon wozo brize, Li p ap kase, e yon fisèl bouji k ap toufe, Li p ap tenyen, jouk lè Li mennen jistis la rive nan viktwa a.
He won’t break a bruised reed. He won’t quench a smoking flax, until he leads justice to victory.
21 Nan Non Pa Li, payen yo ap gen espwa.”
In his name, the nations will hope.”
22 Apre sa, yo te pote bay Li yon mesye ki te avèg e bèbè akoz yon move lespri. Li te geri li, e bèbè a te vin pale e li te vin wè.
Then one possessed by a demon, blind and mute, was brought to him; and he healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw.
23 Tout foul la te etone, e te kòmanse di: “Èske se posib ke moun sa a kapab Fis a David?”
All the multitudes were amazed, and said, “Can this be the son of David?”
24 Men lè Farizyen yo tande sa, yo te di: “Mesye sa ap chase move lespri sa yo pa Béelzébul ki mèt a tout move lespri yo.”
But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, “This man does not cast out demons except by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
25 Li te konnen panse yo, e Li te di yo: “Nenpòt wayòm ki divize kont pwòp tèt li va gaye; e nenpòt vil oswa kay ki divize kont pwòp tèt li p ap kanpe.
Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
26 Si se Satan k ap jete Satan, li divize kont pwòp tèt li. Konsa kijan wayòm li va kanpe?
If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
27 Epi si Mwen menm pa fòs Béelzébul, chase move lespri yo, pa kilès fis nou yo ap jete yo? Pou rezon sa a, se yo menm k ap jije nou.
If I by Beelzebul cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
28 Men si Mwen chase move lespri yo pa Lespri Bondye a, wayòm Bondye a gen tan vini sou nou.
But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come upon you.
29 Oubyen kijan yon moun kapab antre nan kay a nonm fò, pou pran tout byen li, sof ke premyèman li mare nonm fò a? Lè l fini, l ap piyaje kay la.
Or how can one enter into the house of the strong man and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man? Then he will plunder his house.
30 “Sila ki pa pou Mwen an, kont Mwen; e sila ki pa ranmase avè M nan ap gaye.
“He who is not with me is against me, and he who doesn’t gather with me, scatters.
31 Pou sa, Mwen di nou, nenpòt peche, menm blasfèm kapab padone; men blasfèm kont Lespri Sen an p ap kapab padone.
Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.
32 Nenpòt moun ki pale yon mo kont Fis a Lòm nan, l ap padone; men nenpòt moun ki pale yon mo kont Lespri Sen an, sa p ap padone, ni nan laj sila a ni nan laj k ap vini an. (aiōn g165)
Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age, or in that which is to come. (aiōn g165)
33 “Swa pyebwa a bon, e fwi li bon; oubyen pyebwa a pouri e fwi li pouri. Pyebwa a rekonèt pa fwi ke li bay.
“Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit.
34 Nou menm nich vipè, jan nou mechan; kijan nou sipoze nou kapab pale sa ki bon? Se bouch la ki pale tout sa ki plen kè a.
You offspring of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.
35 Bon moun nan fè sòti nan bon trezò li, sa ki bon; e move moun nan fè sòti nan move trezò li, sa ki mal.
The good man out of his good treasure brings out good things, and the evil man out of his evil treasure brings out evil things.
36 Epi Mwen di nou ke nan jou jijman an, moun ap rann kont pou chak ti mo ke yo pale anven.
I tell you that every idle word that men speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.
37 Paske pa pawòl nou, nou va jistifye; e pa pawòl nou, nou va kondane.”
For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
38 Kèk nan Skrib ak Farizyen yo te reponn li konsa: “Mèt, nou vle wè yon sign de Ou menm”.
Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.”
39 Men li te reponn yo konsa: “Yon jenerasyon mechan ak adiltè vle yon sign; men pa gen yon sign ke n ap bay sof ke sign ki pou pwofèt Jonas la.
But he answered them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, but no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
40 Menm jan ke Jonas te pase twa jou ak twa nwit nan vant gwo pwason an, konsa Fis a Lòm nan ap pase twa jou ak twa nwit nan kè latè.
For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the huge fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
41 Moun Niniv ap kanpe avèk jenerasyon sila a nan jijman e kondane li, paske yo te repanti lè Jonas te preche yo. Epi veye byen, yon bagay pi gran pase Jonas gen tan rive isit la.
The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, someone greater than Jonah is here.
42 Rèn nan Sid la ap leve avèk jenerasyon sila a nan jijman e kondane li, paske li te sòti nan dènye ekstremite latè pou tande sajès Salomon; epi veye byen, yon choz pi gran pase Salomon gen tan rive isit la.
The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, someone greater than Solomon is here.
43 “Alò, lè yon move lespri kite yon nonm, li pase nan zòn sèk san dlo pou chache repo, men li pa jwenn.
“When an unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest, and doesn’t find it.
44 Konsa li di: M ap retounen lakay kote mwen te sòti a. Lè li vini li twouve li vid, bale e ranje nan lòd.
Then he says, ‘I will return into my house from which I came;’ and when he has come back, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.
45 Konsa l ale chache sèt lòt espri pi mal ke li. Yo antre la pou viv avè l, epi dènye eta a moun sa a pi mal pase premye a. Se konsa l ap ye avèk jenerasyon mechan sila a.”
Then he goes and takes with himself seven other spirits more evil than he is, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first. Even so will it be also to this evil generation.”
46 Pandan Li te toujou ap pale avèk foul la, konsa, manman L avèk frè Li yo te vin parèt pa deyò akoz yo te vle pale avèk Li.
While he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him.
47 Yon moun te di li: “Gade, manman Ou avèk frè Ou yo kanpe deyò a pou pale avèk ou!”
One said to him, “Behold, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you.”
48 Men Li te reponn sila ki te pale avèk Li pou di l: “Kilès ki manman M? E kilès ki frè M?”
But he answered him who spoke to him, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?”
49 Konsa, byen lonje men L vè disip Li yo, Li te di: “Gade manman M ak frè Mwen yo.
He stretched out his hand toward his disciples, and said, “Behold, my mother and my brothers!
50 Paske sila ki fè volonte a Papa M ki nan syèl la, se li menm ki frè M, sè M, ak manman M.”
For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.”
