Matye 9
1 Jésus te antre nan yon kannòt pou travèse dlo a, e te vin rive nan pwòp vil Li a.
Jesus entered a boat, crossed over, and came into his own city.
2 Epi konsa, yo te pote bay Li yon moun paralize ki kouche sou yon kabann. Lè Jésus te wè lafwa yo, Li te di a moun paralize a: “Pran kouraj fis Mwen, peche ou yo padone.”
Behold, they brought to him a paralyzed man lying on a mat. Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralyzed man, “Son, be of good cheer. Your sins have been forgiven.”
3 Kèk nan skrib yo te reflechi nan kè yo: “Moun sa a ap blasfeme.”
Behold, some of the scribes said among themselves, “This man is blaspheming.”
4 Men Jésus te konnen panse yo e Li te di: “Poukisa nou ap reflechi mal nan kè nou?
Jesus knew their thoughts and said, “Why are you thinking evil in your hearts?
5 Kisa ki pi fasil pou di: ‘Peche ou yo padone’, oubyen ‘leve mache’?
For which is easier, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Get up and walk'?
6 Men pou nou kapab konprann ke Fis a lòm nan gen otorite sou latè pou padone peche”, Li te di a paralitik la: “Leve, pran kabann ou e ale lakay ou!”
But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins, ... “he said to the paralytic, “Get up, pick up your mat, and go to your house.”
7 Epi konsa, Li te leve ale lakay li.
Then the man got up and went away to his house.
8 Lè foul la te wè sa, yo te etonnen, e yo te bay glwa a Bondye ki te bay otorite konsa a lèzòm.
When the crowds saw this, they were amazed and praised God, who had given such authority to people.
9 Lè Jésus te kite kote sa a, Li te wè yon nonm yo rele Matthieu ki te chita nan biwo kontribisyon an. Li te di l: “Swiv Mwen!” Epi li te leve e te swiv Li.
As Jesus passed by from there, he saw a man named Matthew, who was sitting at the tax collection's tent. He said to him, “Follow me.” He got up and followed him.
10 Li vin rive pandan Li te sou tab nan kay la, ke anpil ouvriye travay Kontribisyon an, avèk anpil pechè t ap manje avèk Jésus ak disip Li yo.
As Jesus sat down to eat in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinful people came and dined with Jesus and his disciples.
11 Lè Farizyen yo te wè sa, yo te di a disip Li yo: “Poukisa Mèt nou ap manje avèk moun kontribisyon ak pechè sa yo?”
When the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinful people?”
12 Men, lè Jésus tande sa, Li te di: “Se pa sila ki ansante yo ki bezwen yon doktè, men sila ki malad yo.
When Jesus heard this, he said, “People who are strong in body do not need a physician, only those who are sick.
13 Men ale konprann kisa sa vle di: ‘Mwen dezire mizerikòd, pa sakrifis’, paske mwen pa t vini pou rele jis yo, men pechè yo.”
You should go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice.' For I came not to call the righteous to repent, but sinners.”
14 Aprè sa, disip a Jean yo te vini mande L: “Poukisa nou menm avèk Farizyen yo fè jèn, men disip Ou yo pa fè l?”
Then the disciples of John came to him and said, “Why do we and the Pharisees often fast, but your disciples do not fast?”
15 Jésus di yo konsa: “Èske moun k ap fete avèk mesye maryaj la kapab tris pandan mesye a toujou la? Men jou yo ap vini lè mesye a p ap la ankò e nan tan sa a, yo va fè jèn.
Jesus said to them, “Can wedding attendants be sorrowful while the bridegroom is still with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.
16 Men pèsòn pa pyese yon vye rad avèk yon twal nèf dekwa ke twal nèf la pa vin chire lè l ap ratresi pou chire rad la pi mal.
No man puts a piece of new cloth on an old garment, for the patch will tear away from the garment, and a worse tear will be made.
17 Ni moun pa mete diven nèf nan po kwi ansyen, sinon po a ap fann, diven an va tonbe, e ansyen po a va gate. Men yo mete diven nèf nan po nèf pou tou de kapab konsève.”
Neither do people put new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst, the wine will be spilled, and the wineskins will be destroyed. Instead, they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and both will be preserved.”
18 Pandan Li t ap pale konsa avèk yo, yon ofisye sinagòg la te vin bese devan Li e te di L: “Fi mwen an apèn fin mouri, men si ou vin mete men ou sou li, l ap viv.”
While Jesus was saying these things to them, behold, an official came and bowed down to him. He said, “My daughter has just now died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live.”
19 Jésus te leve e te swiv li ansanm avèk tout disip Li yo.
Then Jesus got up and followed him, and so did his disciples.
20 Konsa, yon fanm ki te soufri yon maladi pèt de san depi douz ane te parèt pa dèyè Li, e te touche rebò vètman Li;
Behold, a woman who suffered from a discharge of blood for twelve years came up behind Jesus and touched the edge of his garment.
21 paske li t ap di nan tèt li: “Si sèlman mwen kapab touche rebò vètman Li, m ap geri.”
For she had said to herself, “If only I touch his clothes, I will be made well.”
22 Men Jésus te vire wè li e te di li: “Fi mwen, pran kouraj, fwa ou gen tan fè ou geri.” Lapoula, fanm nan te gen tan geri.
But Jesus turned and saw her, and said, “Daughter, take courage; your faith has made you well.” And the woman was healed from that hour.
23 Konsa, lè Jésus te rive lakay ofisye a, Li te wè moun ki t ap jwe flit avèk yon foul ki t ap fè anpil bwi avèk dezòd.
When Jesus came into the official's house, he saw the flute players and the crowds making much noise.
24 Li te di: “Fè yon ti deplase; fi a pa mouri, men se dòmi, l ap dòmi.” Epi yo te kòmanse ri sou Li.
He said, “Go away, for the girl is not dead, but she is asleep.” But they laughed at him in mockery.
25 Men lè foul la te soti deyò, Li te antre, pran men li, e fi a te vin leve.
When the crowd had been put outside, he entered the room and took her by the hand, and the girl got up.
26 Nouvèl sa a te kouri toupatou nan peyi a.
The news about this spread into all that region.
27 Lè Jésus te rive pi lwen, de moun avèg t ap swiv Li. Konsa, yo t ap kriye: “Fè nou gras Fis a David la!”
As Jesus passed by from there, two blind men followed him. They kept shouting and saying, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!”
28 Lè L te fin antre nan kay la, yo te vin kote L. Li te mande yo: “Èske nou kwè ke Mwen kapab fè sa?” Yo te reponn Li: “Wi, Senyè”.
When Jesus had come into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I can do this?” They said to him, “Yes, Lord.”
29 Li te touche zye yo e te di: “Ke sa fèt selon lafwa nou.”
Then Jesus touched their eyes and said, “Let it be done to you according to your faith,”
30 Epi zye yo te vin louvri. Jésus te pale ak yo sevèman: “Gade byen, pa kite pèsòn konnen bagay sa a.”
and their eyes were opened. Then Jesus strictly commanded them and said, “See that no one knows about this.”
31 Men yo te ale deyò e te gaye nouvèl la toupatou nan peyi a.
But the two men went out and spread the news about this throughout that region.
32 E pandan yo t ap soti deyò, konsa, yo te pote bay Li yon moun bèbè avèk yon move lespri.
As those two men were going away, behold, a mute man possessed by a demon was brought to Jesus.
33 Lè Li fin jete move lespri a, bèbè a vin pale. Tout foul la te byen etone. Yo te di: “Nou pa janm wè anyen parèy a sa an Israël.”
When the demon had been driven out, the mute man spoke. The crowds were astonished and said, “This has never been seen before in Israel!”
34 Men Farizyen yo t ap di: “Li chase move lespri yo pa pouvwa a mèt move lespri yo.”
But the Pharisees were saying, “By the ruler of the demons, he drives out demons.”
35 Jésus t ap prale toupatou nan tout vil ak tout bouk yo. Li t ap enstwi nan sinagòg yo pou pwoklame bòn nouvèl wayòm nan, e Li t ap geri tout kalite maladi ak pwoblèm fizik.
Jesus went about all the cities and the villages. He continued teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of disease and all kinds of sickness.
36 Epi lè Li wè tout foul moun yo, Li te gen konpasyon pou yo, paske yo te dezole e dekouraje tankou mouton ki san gadò.
When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were troubled and discouraged. They were like sheep without a shepherd.
37 Konsa Li di a disip Li yo: “Rekòlt la anpil, men ouvriye yo manke.
He said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few.
38 Pou sa, sipliye Senyè rekòlt la pou voye ouvriye nan rekòlt Li a.”
Therefore urgently pray to the Lord of the harvest, so that he may send out laborers into his harvest.”
