Matthew 10
1 He called to himself his twelve disciples, and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every sickness.
Jésus te rele douz disip li yo. Li te bay yo pouvwa sou move lespri yo, pou chase yo deyò, e pou geri tout kalite enfimite avèk maladi.
2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these. The first, Simon, who is called Peter; Andrew, his brother; James the son of Zebedee; John, his brother;
Alò, non a douz apot yo te konsa: Premye a, Simon, ke yo rele Pierre, André, frè li, Jacques, fis a Zébédée, Jean, frè li,
3 Philip; Bartholomew; Thomas; Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus; Lebbaeus, who was also called Thaddaeus;
Philippe ak Barthélèmy; Thomas ak Matthieu ki te kolektè kontribisyon an, Jacques, fis Alphée a, ak Thaddée;
4 Simon the Zealot; and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
Simon, Zelòt la ak Judas Iscariot, sila ki te trayi Jésus a.
5 Jesus sent these twelve out and commanded them, saying, “Don’t go among the Gentiles, and don’t enter into any city of the Samaritans.
Douz sila yo Jésus te voye lè Li te fin enstwi yo konsa: “Pa antre nan chemen payen yo, ni pa antre nan okenn vil ki pou Samariten yo,
6 Rather, go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Men pito ale vè mouton ki pèdi lakay Israël yo.
7 As you go, preach, saying, ‘The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!’
Pandan n ap prale, preche epi di: ‘Wayòm syèl la prèt pou rive.’
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and cast out demons. Freely you received, so freely give.
Geri malad yo, leve mò yo, pirifye lepre yo, chase move lespri yo. Nou te resevwa gratis, nou mèt bay gratis.
9 Don’t take any gold, silver, or brass in your money belts.
Nou pa pou pran ni lò, ni lajan ni kwiv pou mete nan bous senti nou,
10 Take no bag for your journey, neither two coats, nor sandals, nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food.
Ni yon sak pou vwayaj nou, pa menm de chemiz, ni sapat, ni baton; paske yon ouvriye merite soutyen li.
11 Into whatever city or village you enter, find out who in it is worthy, and stay there until you go on.
“Nan nenpòt vil oubyen bouk ke nou antre, mande kilès ki gen merit nan li, epi ak li pou nou rete jis lè nou kite vil sa a.
12 As you enter into the household, greet it.
Pandan n ap antre nan kay la, bay li salitasyon nou.
13 If the household is worthy, let your peace come on it, but if it isn’t worthy, let your peace return to you.
Epi si kay la gen merit, ke benediksyon lapè nou rete sou li, men si li pa gen merit, ke benediksyon lapè nou retounen sou nou.
14 Whoever doesn’t receive you or hear your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet.
Nenpòt moun ki pa resevwa nou, ni pa okipe pawòl nou, lè nou kite kay sa a, oubyen vil sa a, souke pye nou pou pousyè li pa rete.
15 Most certainly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
Anverite Mwen di nou, l ap pi tolerab pou peyi Sodome ak Gomorrhe nan jou jijman an pase vil sa a.”
16 “Behold, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
Veye byen, Mwen voye nou tankou mouton nan mitan lou. Konsa, se pou nou saj kon sèpan, men inosan kon toutrèl.
17 But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their synagogues they will scourge you.
Men veye lèzòm, y ap livre nou devan tribinal yo, e y ap bat nou ak fwèt nan sinagòg yo.
18 Yes, and you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
Konsa, y ap menm fè nou vini devan ofisye ak wa yo pou non Mwen, kon yon temwayaj de yo menm ak lòt nasyon yo.
19 But when they deliver you up, don’t be anxious how or what you will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say.
Men lè yo livre nou nan men yo, pa enkyete pou sa n ap di; paske nou va resevwa nan lè sa, sa nou gen pou nou pale.
20 For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.
Paske se pa nou menm k ap pale, men se Lespri Papa nou an k ap pale nan nou.
21 “Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
Frè va livre frè l a lanmò, e papa va livre Pitit li. Zanfan yo ap leve kont paran yo e fè mete yo a lanmò.
22 You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.
Nou va rayi pa tout moun akoz non Mwen, men sila ki reziste jiska lafen an ap sove.
23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next, for most certainly I tell you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man has come.
Men nenpòt lè ke yo pèsekite nou nan yon vil, sove ale nan yon lòt. Paske anverite Mwen di nou, nou p ap gen tan fin pase nan tout vil Israël yo, pou lè Fis a Lòm nan vini.
24 “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord.
Yon disip pa pi wo pase enstriktè li, ni yon esklav pase mèt li.
25 It is enough for the disciple that he be like his teacher, and the servant like his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more those of his household!
Se kont pou yon disip pou li vini menm jan avèk enstriktè li, e yon esklav menm jan ak mèt li. Si yo rele mèt kay la Béelzébul, konbyen anplis pou yo kalomye manm kay li yo!
26 Therefore don’t be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.
Pou sa, pa pè yo; paske pa gen anyen ki kouvri ki p ap dekouvri, e kache ki p ap revele.
27 What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in the ear, proclaim on the housetops.
Sa ke Mwen di nou nan tenèb, pale li nan plen limyè, e sa ke nou tande yo chikote nan zòrèy nou, pwoklame li sou twati kay la.
28 Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
Epi pa pè sa ki kapab touye kò a men ki pa ka touye nanm nan. Men pito pè sila ki kapab detwi ni nanm nan, ni kò a nan lanfè. (Geenna g1067)
29 “Aren’t two sparrows sold for an assarion coin? Not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.
Èske yo pa vann de zwazo pou yon santim? Malgre sa, pa gen youn nan yo k ap tonbe atè san ke Papa nou pa konnen.
30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Men menm chak ti grenn cheve nan tèt nou gen tan kontwole.
31 Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
Konsa, nou pa bezwen pè. Nou gen bokou plis valè pase anpil zwazo.
32 Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven.
Pou sa, tout moun ki konfese M devan lòm, Mwen menm osi, M ap konfese l devan Papa m ki nan syèl la.
33 But whoever denies me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in heaven.
Men nenpòt moun ki renye m devan lòm, M ap renye l devan papa M ki nan syèl la.
34 “Don’t think that I came to send peace on the earth. I didn’t come to send peace, but a sword.
Pa sipoze ke Mwen vini pou pote lapè sou latè. Mwen pa t vini pou pote lapè, men nepe.
35 For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
Mwen te vini pou mete yon nonm kont papa li, yon fi kont manman li, e yon bèlfi kont bèlmè Li.
36 A man’s foes will be those of his own household.
Epi lènmi a yon nonm ap manm a pwòp kay li.
37 He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me isn’t worthy of me.
Sila ki renmen papa li oubyen manman li plis ke Mwen, li pa dign de Mwen; e sila ki renmen fis li, oubyen fi li plis ke Mwen, li pa dign de Mwen.
38 He who doesn’t take his cross and follow after me isn’t worthy of me.
Epi sila ki pa pran kwa li pou swiv Mwen, li pa merite Mwen.
39 He who seeks his life will lose it; and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.
Sila k ap konsève lavi li, li va pèdi li; men sila ki pèdi vi li pou Mwen, l ap twouve li.
40 “He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.
Sila ki resevwa nou menm, resevwa M; e si la ki resevwa Mwen, resevwa Sila ki te voye Mwen an.
41 He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward. He who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.
Sila ki resevwa yon pwofèt nan non a yon pwofèt ap resevwa rekonpans a yon pwofèt. Epi li ki resevwa yon nonm ladwati nan non a yon nonm ladwati, va resevwa rekonpans la a yon nonm dwat.
42 Whoever gives one of these little ones just a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.”
Nenpòt moun ki nan non a yon disip, bay youn nan pitit sa yo menm yon tas dlo frèt pou bwe; anverite, Mwen di nou li pa p pèdi rekonpans li.
