Mark 12
1 He began to speak to them in parables. “A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a pit for the wine press, built a tower, rented it out to a farmer, and went into another country.
Apre sa, Jezi pran rakonte yo yon parabòl. -Vwala, se yon nonm ki te plante yon jaden rezen. Li fèmen l' ak yon lantouraj, li fouye yon basen pou kraze rezen yo, li bati yon kay pou moun k'ap veye jaden an. Apre sa, li antann li avèk kèk moun ki pou okipe jaden an pou li. Li pati, li al nan vwayaj.
2 When it was time, he sent a servant to the farmer to get from the farmer his share of the fruit of the vineyard.
Lè sezon rekòt la rive, li voye yon domestik bò kote moun ki t'ap okipe jaden an pou li. Li te voye chache pòsyon pa l' nan rekòt rezen an nan men yo.
3 They took him, beat him, and sent him away empty.
Yo mete men sou domestik la, yo bat li byen bat, epi yo voye l' tounen bay mèt jaden an san yo pa ba l' anyen.
4 Again, he sent another servant to them; and they threw stones at him, wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated.
Mèt jaden an voye yon lòt domestik bò kote yo ankò. Fwa sa a menm, yo bat li nan tèt ase, epi yo joure l' byen joure.
5 Again he sent another, and they killed him, and many others, beating some, and killing some.
Mèt jaden an voye yon twazyèm domestik, yo touye sa a. Li voye anpil lòt ankò: gen sa yo bat, gen sa yo touye.
6 Therefore still having one, his beloved son, he sent him last to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’
Sèl moun mèt jaden an te rete pou l' te voye, se pitit gason li te renmen anpil la. Li voye l' an dènye bò kote yo. Li t'ap di nan kè l': Omwens y'a gen respè pou gason m' lan.
7 But those farmers said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
Men, kiltivatè yo yonn di lòt: Men eritye a. Ann mete tèt nou ansanm. Ann touye l', konsa jaden an va vin pou nou.
8 They took him, killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.
Yo mete men sou li, yo touye l', epi yo jete kò a deyò lòt bò jaden an.
9 What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.
Bon! Kisa mèt jaden an gen pou l' fè ankò? La vini, la fè touye tout kiltivatè yo, epi la bay lòt moun jaden rezen an.
10 Haven’t you even read this Scripture: ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the head of the corner.
Eske nou pa li pawòl ki ekri a? Mwen sèten nou li l' deja: Wòch moun ki t'ap bati yo te voye jete a, se li menm ki tounen wòch ki kenbe kay la.
11 This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes’?”
Sa se travay Mèt la. Se bèl bagay pou nou wè sa.
12 They tried to seize him, but they feared the multitude; for they perceived that he spoke the parable against them. They left him and went away.
Chèf jwif yo t'ap chache mete men sou li, paske yo te konnen byen se pou yo Jezi te di parabòl sa a. Men, yo te pè mas pèp la. Yo kite l', y' al fè wout yo.
13 They sent some of the Pharisees and the Herodians to him, that they might trap him with words.
Yo te voye kèk farizyen ansanm ak kèk nan patizan Ewòd yo bò kot Jezi pou wè si yo te ka pran yon pawòl nan bouch li pou akize li.
14 When they had come, they asked him, “Teacher, we know that you are honest, and don’t defer to anyone; for you aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?
Yo vin di l' konsa: -Mèt, nou konnen ou se moun ki kare, ou pa pè pesonn, paske ou pa gade sou figi moun. Men, ou moutre chemen Bondye a jan li ye a. Manyè di nou: èske lalwa pèmèt nou peye Seza lajan kontribisyon an? Eske nou dwe peye li? Wi ou non?
15 Shall we give, or shall we not give?” But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you test me? Bring me a denarius, that I may see it.”
Men Jezi te konnen yo gen lòt lide dèyè tèt yo; li reponn yo: -Pouki n'ap chache pran m' nan pèlen konsa? Pote yon pyès lajan ban mwen pou m' gade yon bagay.
16 They brought it. He said to them, “Whose is this image and inscription?” They said to him, “Caesar’s.”
Yo pote yon pyès lajan ba li. Jezi mande yo: -Pòtre ki moun ak non ki moun ki sou pyès lajan an? Yo reponn li: -Se pòtre Seza ak non Seza.
17 Jesus answered them, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” They marveled greatly at him.
Lè sa a, li di yo: -Bay Seza sa ki pou Seza, bay Bondye sa ki pou Bondye. Pawòl sa a te fè yo pi sezi ankò.
18 Some Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection, came to him. They asked him, saying,
Sadiseyen yo se yon gwoup jwif ki di moun mouri pa leve. Yo vin bò kot Jezi ak yon keksyon. Yo di l' konsa:
19 “Teacher, Moses wrote to us, ‘If a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife behind him, and leaves no children, that his brother should take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.’
-Mèt, Moyiz te ekri lòd sa a ban nou: Yon nonm ki gen frè, si l' mouri kite madanm li san pitit, frè a gen pou l' marye avèk madanm defen an pou li sa fè pitit pou frè l' ki mouri a.
20 There were seven brothers. The first took a wife, and dying left no offspring.
Se konsa, te gen sèt frè. Premye a marye, li mouri san l' pa kite pitit.
21 The second took her, and died, leaving no children behind him. The third likewise;
Dezyèm lan marye avèk vèv la. Li mouri tou san l' pa kite pitit. Menm bagay la rive twazyèm lan tou.
22 and the seven took her and left no children. Last of all the woman also died.
Konsa konsa, tout sèt frè yo marye ak fanm lan epi yo yonn pa kite pitit. Apre yo tout fin mouri, li menm tou fanm lan mouri.
23 In the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be of them? For the seven had her as a wife.”
Lè mò yo va gen pou yo leve, madanm kilès nan yo li pral ye la a, paske li te madanm tout sèt frè yo?
24 Jesus answered them, “Isn’t this because you are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God?
Jezi reponn yo: -Nou nan lerè wi. M'ap di nou poukisa: Nou pa konprann sa ki ekri a, nou pa konnen pouvwa Bondye.
25 For when they will rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.
Lè mò yo va gen pou yo leve, fanm ak gason pa nan marye ankò. Tout moun pral viv tankou zanj Bondye nan syèl la.
26 But about the dead, that they are raised, haven’t you read in the book of Moses about the Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?
Pou keksyon mò yo k'ap leve vivan ankò a, èske nou pa li nan Liv Moyiz la sa Bondye te di l' bò touf bwa a: Mwen se Bondye Abraram, Bondye Izarak, Bondye Jakòb?
27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are therefore badly mistaken.”
Bondye se Bondye moun vivan li ye, li pa Bondye moun mouri. Nou wè nou nan lerè anpil, pa vre?
28 One of the scribes came and heard them questioning together, and knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, “Which commandment is the greatest of all?”
Yonn nan dirèktè lalwa yo te tande jan yo t'ap diskite. Li wè Jezi te byen reponn sadiseyen yo. Lè sa a, li pwoche bò kote l', li mande li: -Kilès nan tout kòmandman yo ki pi konsekan an?
29 Jesus answered, “The greatest is: ‘Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.
Jezi reponn li: -Men kòmandman ki pi konsekan an: Koute, nou menm pèp Izrayèl: Mèt la, Bondye nou, se li ki sèl Mèt la.
30 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment.
Se pou ou renmen Mèt la, Bondye ou, avèk tout kè ou, avèk tout nanm ou, avèk tout lide ou, avèk tout fòs ou.
31 The second is like this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
Men dezyèm kòmandman an: Se pou ou renmen frè parèy ou tankou ou renmen pwòp tèt pa ou. Pa gen lòt kòmandman ki pi konsekan pase sa yo.
32 The scribe said to him, “Truly, teacher, you have said well that he is one, and there is none other but he;
Lè sa a, dirèktè lalwa a di li: -Se sa menm, Mèt. Sa ou di a se vre. Met nou an se sèl Bondye ki genyen. Pa gen lòt pase li.
33 and to love him with all the heart, with all the understanding, all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
Jan ou di a, se pou nou renmen l' ak tout kè nou, tout lespri nou, tout fòs nou, epi se pou nou renmen frè parèy nou tankou nou renmen pwòp tèt pa nou. Sa pi bon lontan pase tout ofrann n'ap boule pou Bondye ansanm ak tout lòt bèt n'ap ofri pou touye pou li.
34 When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from God’s Kingdom.” No one dared ask him any question after that.
Jezi wè nonm lan te fè l' yon repons moun ki gen konprann, lè sa a li di li: -Ou menm, ou pa lwen peyi kote Bondye Wa a non. Apre sa, pesonn pa t' gen odas poze l' keksyon ankò.
35 Jesus responded, as he taught in the temple, “How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David?
Pandan Jezi t'ap moutre moun yo anpil bagay nan tanp lan, li di yo: -Ki jan dirèktè lalwa yo fè di Kris la se pitit pitit David li ye?
36 For David himself said in the Holy Spirit, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’
Poutan, men sa David te di (se Sentespri menm ki te fè l' di l'): Bondye te di Seyè mwen an: Chita la sou bò dwat mwen, jouk tan mwen fè lènmi ou yo tounen yon ti ban pou lonje pye ou.
37 Therefore David himself calls him Lord, so how can he be his son?” The common people heard him gladly.
Si David rele Kris la Seyè, ki jan pou Kris la ta ka pitit pitit David? Yon pakèt moun t'ap koute Jezi avèk plezi.
38 In his teaching he said to them, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and to get greetings in the marketplaces,
Nan sa li t'ap moutre moun yo, li di yo konsa: -Pran prekosyon nou avèk dirèktè lalwa sa yo. Yo renmen pwonmennen avèk wòb long yo, yo renmen moun di yo bonjou jouk atè lè yo sou plas piblik.
39 and to get the best seats in the synagogues and the best places at feasts,
Lè y' al nan sinagòg, yo chita kote pou tout moun wè yo. Nan resepsyon yo chache pi bon plas la.
40 those who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
Se piye y'ap piye malerèz yo, an menm tan y'ap plede fè lapriyè byen long pou parèt pi bon. Kondannasyon yo pral pi rèd.
41 Jesus sat down opposite the treasury and saw how the multitude cast money into the treasury. Many who were rich cast in much.
Apre sa, Jezi te chita vizaviz ak bwat kote yo mete ofrann nan tanp lan. Li t'ap gade moun yo ap mete lajan ladan li. Plizyè moun rich t'ap mete anpil lajan.
42 A poor widow came and she cast in two small brass coins, which equal a quadrans coin.
Yon pòv vèv vin rive tou; li mete de ti kòb ki pa t' menm fè mwatye senk kòb.
43 He called his disciples to himself and said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, this poor widow gave more than all those who are giving into the treasury,
Lè sa a Jezi rele disip li yo, li di yo; -Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Pòv vèv sa a bay plis pase tout moun ki mete ofrann nan bwat la.
44 for they all gave out of their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, gave all that she had to live on.”
Paske, tout moun sa yo mete sa yo pa bezwen; men li menm, nan tout mizè li, li bay tou sa l' te genyen, tout sa l' te gen pou l' viv.
