Matthew 19
1 When Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee and came into the borders of Judea beyond the Jordan.
Lè Jésus te fin pale pawòl sa yo, li te kite Galilée pou ale nan rejyon Judée, lòtbò Jourdain an.
2 Great multitudes followed him, and he healed them there.
Gran foul yo te swiv Li, e Li te geri yo la.
3 Pharisees came to him, testing him and saying, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason?”
Kèk Farizyen te vin kote Li pou fè pase L eprèv. Yo mande L: “Èske li pèmèt pou yon nonm divòse ak madanm li pou okenn rezon?”
4 He answered, “Haven’t you read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female,
Li te reponn yo: “Èske nou pa konn li ke Sila ki te kreye yo depi nan kòmansman an, te fè yo mal ak femèl,
5 and said, ‘For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh’?
ke: ‘pou koz sa a, yon nonm ap kite papa li ak manman li pou vin atache a madanm li, epi yo de a ap vini yon sèl chè?
6 So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, don’t let man tear apart.”
Konsa, se pa de yo ye ankò, men yon sèl chè. Sa ke Bondye mete ansanm, pa kite okenn moun separe l.’”
7 They asked him, “Why then did Moses command us to give her a certificate of divorce and divorce her?”
Yo te mande L: “Ebyen, poukisa Moïse te kòmande yo pou ‘Bay li yon sètifika divòs e voye li ale?’”
8 He said to them, “Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it has not been so.
Li te reponn yo: “Akoz kè di nou, Moïse te pèmèt nou divòse ak madanm nou yo, men depi nan kòmansman an, se pa konsa li te ye.
9 I tell you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and he who marries her when she is divorced commits adultery.”
Mwen di nou: Nenpòt moun ki divòse ak madanm li, sof ke pou imoralite, epi marye avèk yon lòt fanm, li fè adiltè.”
10 His disciples said to him, “If this is the case of the man with his wife, it is not expedient to marry.”
Disip Li yo te di L: “Si se konsa relasyon a yon mesye ye avèk madanm li, li pi bon pou pa marye.”
11 But he said to them, “Not all men can receive this saying, but those to whom it is given.
Men Li te di yo: “Se pa tout moun ki kapab aksepte sa nou di a, men sèl sa yo ke li te bay.
12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the Kingdom of Heaven’s sake. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.”
Paske gen enik ki te fèt konsa depi nan vant manman yo, e gen enik ki te fèt konsa pa lòm; e gen enik ki te fèt konsa pou tèt yo, pou koz a wayòm syèl la. Sila ki kapab aksepte sa, kite l aksepte li.”
13 Then little children were brought to him that he should lay his hands on them and pray; and the disciples rebuked them.
Apre sa, yo te mennen kèk timoun kote L pou Li ta kapab mete men Li sou yo e priye pou yo; men disip yo te reprimande yo.
14 But Jesus said, “Allow the little children, and don’t forbid them to come to me; for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to ones like these.”
Konsa, Jésus te di: “Bay timoun yo pèmi, e pa anpeche yo vin kote Mwen, paske wayòm syèl la se pou sila ki tankou yo”.
15 He laid his hands on them, and departed from there.
Apre Li mete men Li sou yo, Li kite la.
16 Behold, one came to him and said, “Good teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Konsa, youn moun te vini la, e te di: “Mèt, ki bon bagay Mwen kapab fè pou m jwenn lavi etènèl?” (aiōnios g166)
17 He said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good but one, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.”
Li te di l: “Poukisa ou ap kesyone M sou sa ki bon? Gen yon sèl ki bon, Bondye. Men si ou vle antre nan lavi, kenbe kòmandman yo.”
18 He said to him, “Which ones?” Jesus said, “‘You shall not murder.’ ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ ‘You shall not steal.’ ‘You shall not offer false testimony.’
Li te mande Li: “Kilès nan yo?” Jésus te reponn li: “Ou pa pou touye moun, ou pa pou fè adiltè, ou pa pou vòlè, ou pa pou pote fo temwayaj.
19 ‘Honor your father and your mother.’ And, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’”
Onore papa ou avèk manman ou, epi renmen pwochen ou tankou tèt ou.”
20 The young man said to him, “All these things I have observed from my youth. What do I still lack?”
Jennonm nan te di L: “Tout bagay sa yo, mwen fè yo. Kisa mwen manke?”
21 Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”
Jésus te di l: “Si ou vle pafè, ale vann tout sa ou posede, bay malere yo, e w ap gen richès nan syèl la; epi vin swiv Mwen.”
22 But when the young man heard this, he went away sad, for he was one who had great possessions.
Men lè jennonm nan te tande pawòl sa a, li te sòti dezole, paske li te gen anpil byen.
23 Jesus said to his disciples, “Most certainly I say to you, a rich man will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven with difficulty.
Jésus te di a disip Li yo: “Anverite Mwen di nou: Li difisil pou yon nonm rich antre nan wayòm syèl la.
24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
Ankò, Mwen di nou: Li pi fasil pou yon chamo pase nan zye a yon zegwi, pase pou yon nonm rich antre nan wayòm Bondye a.”
25 When the disciples heard it, they were exceedingly astonished, saying, “Who then can be saved?”
Lè disip Li yo te tande sa, yo te etone e te di: “Kilès konsa ki kab sove?”
26 Looking at them, Jesus said, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Jésus te byen gade yo, e te di: “Avèk moun, li pa posib, men avèk Bondye, tout bagay posib.”
27 Then Peter answered, “Behold, we have left everything and followed you. What then will we have?”
Konsa Pierre te reponn Li. Li te di: “Gade, nou fin kite tout bagay pou te swiv Ou. Kisa k ap gen pou nou?”
28 Jesus said to them, “Most certainly I tell you that you who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on the throne of his glory, you also will sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Jésus te di yo: “Anverite, Mwen di nou ke nou ki te swiv Mwen yo, nan tan renouvèlman tout bagay la, lè Fis a Lòm nan vin chita sou twòn Li nan tout glwa Li, nou menm tou, n ap chita sou douz twòn pou jije douz tribi Israël yo.
29 Everyone who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name’s sake, will receive one hundred times, and will inherit eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
“Tout moun ki kite kay yo oubyen frè yo oubyen sè yo, papa, Manman, zanfan, oubyen tè pou koz a Non Mwen, ap resevwa anpil fwa sa a, e va eritye lavi etènèl. (aiōnios g166)
30 But many will be last who are first, and first who are last.
Men anpil moun ki premye ap dènye, e dènye yo, ap vin premye.”
