Matthew 21
1 When they came near to Jerusalem and came to Bethsphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
Lè yo te pwoche Jérusalem pou rive kote Bethphagé nan Mòn Oliv la, Jésus te voye de nan disip li yo,
2 saying to them, “Go into the village that is opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to me.
epi te di yo: “Ale nan vilaj anfas nou an, epi nou va twouve yon bourik ki mare la avèk pitit li. Demare yo, e mennen yo ban Mwen.
3 If anyone says anything to you, you shall say, ‘The Lord needs them,’ and immediately he will send them.”
Epi si yon moun di nou yon bagay, nou va di li konsa: ‘Senyè a gen bezwen yo’, epi lapoula, l ap voye yo.”
4 All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying,
Tout sa te fèt pou sa ki te pale pa pwofèt la ta kapab akonpli, lè li te di:
5 “Tell the daughter of Zion, behold, your King comes to you, humble, and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.”
“Pale a fi Sion an, Men gade, Wa ou ap vin kote ou, dou, e monte sou yon bourik, yon jenn bourik, Pitit a yon bèt ki pote chaj”.
6 The disciples went and did just as Jesus commanded them,
Epi disip yo te ale fè tout sa Li te mande yo.
7 and brought the donkey and the colt and laid their clothes on them; and he sat on them.
Konsa yo te mennen bourik la avèk Pitit li a e te mete vètman yo, epi konsa, sou vètman yo Li te chita.
8 A very great multitude spread their clothes on the road. Others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
Pifò nan foul la te plase vètman yo louvri sou wout la, e kèk lòt t ap koupe branch nan bwa yo pou plase sou wout la.
9 The multitudes who went in front of him, and those who followed, kept shouting, “Hosanna to the son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”
Foul la ki te ale devan Li, ni sa ki te swiv Li t ap rele: “Ozana (Glwa a Bondye) a Fis a David la! Beni se Sila ki vini nan non Senyè a! Ozana nan pi wo a!”
10 When he had come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”
Lè Li te antre Jérusalem, tout vil la te byen boulvèse e t ap di: “Ki moun sa ye?”
11 The multitudes said, “This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.”
Epi foul la t ap di: “Sa se pwofèt Jésus ki sòti Nazareth nan Galilée a”.
12 Jesus entered into the temple of God and drove out all of those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the money changers’ tables and the seats of those who sold the doves.
Jésus te antre nan tanp lan e te chase mete tout moun deyò ki t ap achte e vann nan tanp lan. Li te chavire tab a moun ki t ap chanje lajan yo, avèk chèz a moun ki t ap vann toutrèl yo.
13 He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a den of robbers!”
Li te di yo: “Li ekri: ‘Lakay Mwen an va rele yon kay pou lapriyè,’ men nou menm, nou fè li yon twou kachèt pou vòlè!”
14 The lame and the blind came to him in the temple, and he healed them.
Avèg yo avèk bwate yo te vin kote L nan tanp lan, e Li te geri yo.
15 But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children who were crying in the temple and saying, “Hosanna to the son of David!” they were indignant,
Men lè chèf prèt yo avèk skrib yo te wè tout mèvèy ke Li te fè yo, epi timoun nan tanp yo ki t ap kriye: “Ozana a Fis a David la!”, yo te ankòlè anpil.
16 and said to him, “Do you hear what these are saying?” Jesus said to them, “Yes. Did you never read, ‘Out of the mouth of children and nursing babies, you have perfected praise’?”
Epi yo te di Li: “Ou pa tande kisa timoun sa yo ap di?” Jésus te reponn yo: “Wi, nou pa janm konn li ‘Nan bouch a timoun avèk ti bebe k ap tete yo, nou prepare lwanj pou Ou menm’”?
17 He left them and went out of the city to Bethany, and camped there.
Li te kite yo, e sòti pou ale nan vil Béthanie pou pase nwit lan.
18 Now in the morning, as he returned to the city, he was hungry.
Alò nan maten, Li te retounen nan vil la. Li te vin grangou.
19 Seeing a fig tree by the road, he came to it and found nothing on it but leaves. He said to it, “Let there be no fruit from you forever!” Immediately the fig tree withered away. (aiōn g165)
Li te wè yon sèl pye fig frans akote wout la. Men lè L vin kote l, Li pa twouve anyen sof ke fèy yo. Konsa Li pale li: “Ou p ap janm gen fwi ki sòti sou ou ankò!” Epi lapoula, pye fig frans lan te vin fennen nèt. (aiōn g165)
20 When the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, “How did the fig tree immediately wither away?”
Lè yo wè sa, disip yo te etone. Yo te di: “Kijan fig frans sa a fè vin fennen nan yon moman konsa?”
21 Jesus answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, if you have faith and don’t doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you told this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ it would be done.
Jésus te reponn e te di yo: “Anverite Mwen di nou: Si nou gen lafwa e nou pa doute, non sèlman n ap fè sa ki te fèt a fig frans lan, men menm si nou di a mòn sa a: ‘Leve ale jete ou nan lanmè’, sa va fèt.
22 All things, whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”
Epi tout sa nou mande nan lapriyè e kwè, nou va resevwa li.”
23 When he had come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, and said, “By what authority do you do these things? Who gave you this authority?”
Lè Li te fin antre nan tanp lan, chèf prèt yo avèk lansyen pami pèp la te vin kote L pandan Li t ap enstwi pou mande L: “Pa ki otorite Ou fè bagay sa yo? Se kilès ki te bay ou otorite sila a?”
24 Jesus answered them, “I also will ask you one question, which if you tell me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Jésus te reponn yo: “M ap mande nou yon bagay tou, e si nou reponn Mwen, M ap fè nou konnen pa ki otorite Mwen fè bagay sila yo.
25 The baptism of John, where was it from? From heaven or from men?” They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask us, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
Batèm a Jean an, kibò li sòti? Èske sous li se syèl la, oubyen lòm?” Konsa, yo te kòmanse rezone pami yo menm. Yo te di: “Si nou di ‘syèl la’, L ap di nou ‘ebyen poukisa nou pa t kwè l?’
26 But if we say, ‘From men,’ we fear the multitude, for all hold John as a prophet.”
Men si nou di ‘lòm’, nou pè foul la, paske yo tout kwè ke Jean te yon pwofèt.”
27 They answered Jesus, and said, “We don’t know.” He also said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.
Yo te reponn Jésus. Yo te di: “Nou pa konnen”. Li te reponn yo: “Ni Mwen menm p ap di nou pa ki otorite Mwen fè bagay sa yo.”
28 But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first, and said, ‘Son, go work today in my vineyard.’
“Men kisa nou panse? Yon nonm te gen de fis. Li te vini a premye a, e te di l: ‘Fis mwen, ale travay pou mwen jodi a nan chan rezen an.’”
29 He answered, ‘I will not,’ but afterward he changed his mind, and went.
“Li te reponn: ‘M p ap prale’. Men, apre li te regrèt sa, e li te ale.
30 He came to the second, and said the same thing. He answered, ‘I’m going, sir,’ but he didn’t go.
“Nonm nan te rive kote dezyèm nan, e te di menm bagay la. Men li menm te reponn, e te di: Avozòd! Men li pa t ale.
31 Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said to him, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Most certainly I tell you that the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering into God’s Kingdom before you.
Kilès nan de fis sa yo ki te fè volonte a papa l?” Yo te reponn: “Premye a”. Jésus te di yo: “Anverite, Mwen di nou ke kolektè kontribisyon yo avèk fanm movèz vi yo va antre nan wayòm syèl la avan nou menm.
32 For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you didn’t believe him; but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. When you saw it, you didn’t even repent afterward, that you might believe him.
Paske Jean te vini a nou menm nan chemen ladwati, men nou pa t kwè li; men kolektè kontribisyon yo avèk fanm movèz vi yo te kwè li. Men nou menm ki te wè sa, nou pa t menm repanti lè l fin fèt pou nou ta kwè li.
33 “Hear another parable. There was a man who was a master of a household who planted a vineyard, set a hedge about it, dug a wine press in it, built a tower, leased it out to farmers, and went into another country.
“Koute yon lòt parabòl. Te gen yon mèt tè ki te plante yon chan rezen. Li te antoure li avèk yon miray. Li te fouye yon rezèvwa pou kraze rezen yo, e te bati yon tou ki wo. Li te antann demwatye ak kiltivatè yo, e te ale fè yon vwayaj.
34 When the season for the fruit came near, he sent his servants to the farmers to receive his fruit.
“Lè lè rekòlt la te rive, li te voye esklav li yo jwenn kiltivatè yo pou resevwa pwodwi pa li a.
35 The farmers took his servants, beat one, killed another, and stoned another.
Konsa, kiltivatè yo te pran esklav li yo, te bat youn, te touye yon lòt, e yo te kalonnen twazyèm lan avèk kout wòch.
36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first; and they treated them the same way.
“Ankò lite voye yon lòt ekip esklav pi gran pase premye yo, e yo fè yo menm bagay la.
37 But afterward he sent to them his son, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’
“Men anfen, li te voye fis li a. Li te di: ‘Y ap respekte fis mwen an.’
38 But the farmers, when they saw the son, said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him and seize his inheritance.’
Men lè kiltivatè yo te wè fis la, yo te di pami yo, ‘Sa se eritye a. Vini, annou touye li epi sezi eritaj li a.’
39 So they took him and threw him out of the vineyard, then killed him.
Konsa, yo te pran li, voye li deyò chan an e yo te touye li.”
40 When therefore the lord of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those farmers?”
“Akoz sa, lè mèt teren an vini, kisa l ap fè avèk kiltivatè sa yo?”
41 They told him, “He will miserably destroy those miserable men, and will lease out the vineyard to other farmers who will give him the fruit in its season.”
Yo te di Li: “L ap mennen malveyan sa yo a yon move fen, epi li va lwe chan sa a bay lòt kiltivatè k ap peye li sa yo dwe yo nan pwòp lè yo.”
42 Jesus said to them, “Did you never read in the Scriptures, ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the head of the corner. This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes’?
Jésus te di yo: “Èske nou pa janm li nan Ekriti Sen yo, ‘Wòch ke sila ki t ap bati yo te rejte a, te devni wòch ang prensipal la. Sa te sòti nan Senyè a, e se te yon mèvèy nan zye nou.’?”
43 “Therefore I tell you, God’s Kingdom will be taken away from you and will be given to a nation producing its fruit.
“Akoz sa Mwen di nou: Wayòm syèl la ap vin pran nan men nou pou plase bay yon nasyon k ap pwodwi fwi li.
44 He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but on whomever it will fall, it will scatter him as dust.”
Epi sila ki tonbe sou wòch sila ap kraze an mòso, men sou sila ke li tonbe a, l ap gaye li tankou poud.”
45 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spoke about them.
Lè chèf prèt ak Farizyen yo te tande parabòl Li yo, yo te konprann ke Li t ap pale de yo menm.
46 When they sought to seize him, they feared the multitudes, because they considered him to be a prophet.
Lè yo te chèche mwayen sezi Li, yo te krent foul la paske yo te konsidere Li kon yon pwofèt.
