Jan 12
1 Pou sa a, sis jou avan fèt la Jésus te vini nan Béthanie, kote Lazare, moun Li te fè leve sòti nan lanmò a te ye a.
Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
2 Konsa, yo te prepare yon manje pou li la. Marthe t ap sèvi, men Lazare te youn nan yo ki te sou tab avèk Li.
So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.
3 Nan lè sa a, Marie te pran yon liv pafen yo rele nà ki te koute trè chè, e te vide sou pye a Jésus e te siye yo avèk cheve li. Kay la te ranpli avèk sant pafen sa a.
Therefore Mary took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.
4 Men Judas Iscariot, youn nan disip Li yo, ki te gen lentansyon pou trayi Li, te di:
Then Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,
5 “Poukisa pafen sila a pa t vann pou twa san denye, pou yo ta bay malere yo?”
“Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?”
6 Alò, li pa t di sa paske li te konsène pou malere yo, men paske se te yon vòlè li te ye. Epi konsi li te responsab lajan nan bwat kès la, li te konn piyaje sa ke yo mete ladann.
Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.
7 Pou rezon sa a, Jésus te di “Pa deranje l, li te konsève sa a pou jou lantèman M.
But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.
8 Paske malere yo ap toujou avè w, men Mwen, ou p ap toujou genyen M.”
For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”
9 Konsa, gran foul Jwif yo te dekouvri ke Li te la, e yo te vini non sèlman akoz Jésus, men pou yo ta ka wè Lazare ke Li te leve sòti nan lanmò a.
A large crowd therefore of the Jews learnt that he was there; and they came, not for Jesus’ sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
10 Men chèf prèt yo te mete tèt yo ansanm pou yo ta kapab anplis mete Lazare a lanmò.
But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also,
11 Paske akoz li menm, anpil nan Jwif yo t ap kite e t ap kwè nan Jésus.
because on account of him many of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus.
12 Nan jou aprè a, yon gran foul ki te vini nan fèt la, lè yo tande ke Jésus t ap vini nan Jérusalem,
On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
13 te pran branch pye palmis, e te ale rankontre Li, e te kòmanse kriye “Ozana, ozana, beni sila a ki vini nan non Senyè a, Wa Israël la.”
they took the branches of the palm trees and went out to meet him, and cried out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!”
14 Jésus te twouve yon jenn bourik e te chita sou li. Tankou li ekri,
Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,
15 “Pa pè, O fi a Sion. Gade byen, Wa ou ap vini, byen chita sou yon jenn bourik.”
“Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.”
16 Nan kòmansman, disip Li yo pa t konprann bagay sa yo, men lè Jésus te resevwa glwa, Yo sonje ke yo te ekri sou Li e ke yo te fè L bagay sa yo.
His disciples didn’t understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him.
17 Konsa, pèp la ki te avè L lè Li te rele Lazare deyò nan tonm nan, e te fè l leve sòti nan lanmò a, t ap toujou fè temwayaj de Li.
The multitude therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead was testifying about it.
18 Pou koz sa, foul la te ale rankontre Li, paske yo te tande ke Li te fè sign sila a.
For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign.
19 Akoz sa a, Farizyen yo te di youn ak lòt: “Nou wè ke nou p ap fè anyen ki bon. Gade, lemonn ap kouri dèyè Li.”
The Pharisees therefore said amongst themselves, “See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him.”
20 Konsa, te gen sèten Grèk pami yo ki t ap monte pou adore nan fèt la.
Now there were certain Greeks amongst those who went up to worship at the feast.
21 Yo te ale kote Philippe ki te sòti nan Bethsaïda nan Galilée, e te kòmanse mande li: “Mesye, nou vle wè Jésus.”
Therefore, these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.”
22 Philippe te vin di André. E André ak Philippe te di Jésus sa.
Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Jesus.
23 Jésus te reponn yo e te di: “Lè a rive pou Fis a Lòm nan kapab resevwa glwa.
Jesus answered them, “The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
24 “Anverite, anverite, Mwen di nou, sof ke yon grenn ble tonbe nan tè epi mouri, li rete pou kont li, men si li mouri, l ap fè anpil fwi.
Most certainly I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone. But if it dies, it bears much fruit.
25 Moun ki renmen vi li va pèdi l, e moun ki rayi vi li nan mond sa a va konsève li jiska lavi etènèl. (aiōnios g166)
He who loves his life will lose it. He who hates his life in this world will keep it to eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
26 “Si nenpòt moun ap sèvi Mwen, fòk li swiv Mwen. E kote Mwen ye, la sèvitè Mwen va ye tou. Si nenpòt moun ap sèvi Mwen, Papa a va onore li.
If anyone serves me, let him follow me. Where I am, there my servant will also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honour him.
27 “Koulye a nanm Mwen vin twouble. Epi kisa M ap di: ‘Papa, sove M de lè sa a’? Men se pou rezon sa a ke M te rive nan lè sa a.
“Now my soul is troubled. What shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this time’? But I came to this time for this cause.
28 Papa, ke non Ou kapab resevwa glwa!” Yon vwa te sòti nan syèl la: “Mwen te non sèlman bay li glwa a, men Mwen va bay li glwa ankò.”
Father, glorify your name!” Then a voice came out of the sky, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.”
29 Foul la ki te kanpe la epi te tande sa, te di ke yo tande loraj. Lòt yo te di: “Yon zanj pale avèk Li.”
Therefore the multitude who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.”
30 Jésus te reponn e te di: “Vwa sa a pa t vini pou kòz pa M, men pou kòz pa nou.
Jesus answered, “This voice hasn’t come for my sake, but for your sakes.
31 Koulye a jijman vini sou mond sa a. Koulye a mèt mond sa a va jete deyò.
Now is the judgement of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.
32 E Mwen, si Mwen gen tan leve wo anwo tè a, va atire tout moun kote Mwen menm.”
And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
33 Men Li te di sa pou montre ki kalite mò Li ta pral mouri an.
But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
34 Pou sa, foul la te reponn Li: “Nou te tande nan Lalwa ke Kris la ap la jis pou jamen. E kijan ou kapab di: ‘Fis a Lòm nan oblije leve wo?’ Kilès Fis a Lòm sila a?” (aiōn g165)
The multitude answered him, “We have heard out of the law that the Christ remains forever. How do you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?” (aiōn g165)
35 Akoz sa, Jésus te di yo: “Pou yon ti tan anplis, limyè a pami nou. Mache pandan nou gen limyè a, pou tenèb la pa gen tan pran nou. Sila ki mache nan tenèb la pa konnen kote l ap prale.
Jesus therefore said to them, “Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn’t overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn’t know where he is going.
36 Pandan nou gen limyè a, kwè nan limyè a pou nou kapab vini fis a limyè a.” Bagay sa yo Jésus te pale, epi Li ale kache kò Li pou yo pa jwenn Li.
While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become children of light.” Jesus said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them.
37 Men malgre ke Li te fè tout sign sa yo devan yo, toujou yo pa t kwè nan Li.
But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they didn’t believe in him,
38 Pou pawòl a pwofèt la, Ésaïe, ta kapab akonpli lè l te di: “Senyè, kilès ki kwè nan rapò nou? E a kilès bra Letènèl la devwale?”
that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: “Lord, who has believed our report? To whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
39 Pou rezon sa, yo pa t kab kwè. Paske Ésaïe te di ankò:
For this cause they couldn’t believe, for Isaiah said again:
40 “Li te fè zye yo avegle, e te fè kè yo di, sof ke yo wè avèk zye yo, apèsi avèk kè yo, epi vin konvèti, epi Mwen ta geri yo.”
“He has blinded their eyes and he hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes, and perceive with their heart, and would turn, and I would heal them.”
41 Bagay sa yo, Ésaïe te di paske li te wè glwa Li, e akoz ke li te wè glwa Li, li te pale sou Li.
Isaiah said these things when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
42 Malgre sa, menm anpil nan gran chèf yo te kwè nan Li, men akoz Farizyen yo, yo pa t konfese sa a, akoz krent ke yo ta vin mete deyò nan sinagòg la.
Nevertheless, even many of the rulers believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they didn’t confess it, so that they wouldn’t be put out of the synagogue,
43 Paske yo te gen lanvi pou lwanj a lòm olye lwanj Bondye.
for they loved men’s praise more than God’s praise.
44 Jésus te kriye e te di: “Sila a ki kwè nan Mwen, pa kwè nan Mwen, men nan Li menm ki te voye Mwen an.
Jesus cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.
45 Sila a ki wè M, wè Li menm ki te voye Mwen an.
He who sees me sees him who sent me.
46 Mwen te vini kon yon limyè nan mond lan, pou tout moun ki kwè nan Mwen pa rete nan tenèb.
I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
47 “Si nenpòt moun tande pawòl Mwen yo, e pa kenbe yo, Mwen pa jije li. Paske Mwen pa t vini nan lemonn pou jije lemonn, men pou sove lemonn.
If anyone listens to my sayings and doesn’t believe, I don’t judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 “Sila a ki rejte Mwen, epi pa resevwa pawòl Mwen yo, gen youn k ap jije li. Pawòl ke Mwen te pale a se li k ap jije li nan dènye jou a.
He who rejects me, and doesn’t receive my sayings, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke will judge him in the last day.
49 “Paske Mwen pa t pale pou kont Mwen, men Papa a, Li menm, ki te voye M te kòmande Mwen kisa pou M pale, e kisa pou M di.
For I spoke not from myself, but the Father who sent me gave me a commandment, what I should say and what I should speak.
