< Matthew 15 >

1 Then there come to Jesus from Jerusalem Pharisees and scribes, saying,
Lè sa a, kèk farizyen ak dirèktè lalwa soti Jerizalèm, yo vin bò kot Jezi. Yo di li:
2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
Poukisa disip ou yo pa swiv koutim granmoun lontan yo? Gade. Yo pa lave men yo anvan yo manje.
3 And he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God because of your tradition?
Li reponn yo: Nou menm k'ap pale a, poukisa n'ap plede dezobeyi kòmandman Bondye yo pou nou swiv koutim pa nou yo?
4 For God said, Honor thy father and thy mother: and, He that speaketh evil of father or mother, let him die the death.
Tande byen. Bondye di nou konsa: Respekte papa ou ak manman ou. Li di ankò: Si yon moun pale papa l' osinon manman l' mal, se pou yo touye l'.
5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, That wherewith thou mightest have been profited by me is given [to God];
Men nou menm, nou di: Si yon moun di papa l' osinon manman l': Sa m' ta gen pou m' ba ou a, m' ofri l' bay Bondye,
6 he shall not honor his father. And ye have made void the word of God because of your tradition.
moun sa a pa bezwen fè anyen pou papa l' osinon pou manman l'. Se konsa, avèk koutim nou yo, nou fè pawòl Bondye a pase pou anyen menm.
7 Ye hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,
Bann ipokrit! Ezayi te gen rezon lè l' t'ap pale sou nou, jan sa ekri a:
8 This people honoreth me with their lips; But their heart is far from me.
Se nan bouch pèp sa a respekte mwen. Men, kè yo byen lwen mwen.
9 But in vain do they worship me, Teaching [as their] doctrines the precepts of men.
Se tan yo y'ap pèdi, lè y'ap fè sèvis pou mwen. Paske, nan sa y'ap di, se pawòl lèzòm y'ap moutre moun.
10 And he called to him the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:
Apre sa, li rele foul moun yo, li di yo: Koute byen sa m'ap di nou la a, manyè konprann sa:
11 Not that which entereth into the mouth defileth the man; but that which proceedeth out of the mouth, this defileth the man.
Se pa bagay ki antre nan bouch yon moun ki ka mete l' nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka sèvi Bondye. Men se sak soti nan bouch li ki ka mete l' nan kondisyon sa a.
12 Then came the disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, when they heard this saying?
Lè sa a, disip li yo pwoche bò kote l', yo di l' konsa: Ou konnen farizyen yo ofiske poutèt sa ou sot di la a.
13 But he answered and said, Every plant which my heavenly Father planted not, shall be rooted up.
Jezi reponn yo: Si se pa Papa m' nan syèl la ki plante yon plant, yo gen pou yo derasinen li.
14 Let them alone: they are blind guides. And if the blind guide the blind, both shall fall into a pit.
Pa okipe yo! Se yon bann avèg k'ap mennen avèg parèy yo. Si yon avèg ap mennen yon lòt avèg, tou de gen pou tonbe nan menm twou a.
15 And Peter answered and said unto him, Declare unto us the parable.
Pyè pran lapawòl, li di Jezi konsa: Esplike nou parabòl sa a non.
16 And he said, Are ye also even yet without understanding?
Jezi di: Nou menm tou, nou san konprann toujou!
17 Perceive ye not, that whatsoever goeth into the mouth passeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
Nou pa konprann pawòl sa a: Tout bagay ki antre nan bouch yon moun, sa pase nan vant li. Apre sa, li soti deyò.
18 But the things which proceed out of the mouth come forth out of the heart; and they defile the man.
Men, bagay ki soti nan bouch yon moun, se nan kè l' sa soti. Se bagay konsa ki mete yon moun nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka sèvi Bondye.
19 For out of the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, railings:
Se nan kè l' tout move lide soti, lide touye moun, lide fè adiltè ak tout lòt bagay ki pa dakò ak volonte Bondye tankou lide vòlò, lide fè manti sou moun, lide bay manti.
20 these are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not the man.
Se bagay sa yo ki mete yon moun nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka sèvi Bondye. Men, keksyon manje san lave men, jan yo di l' la, sa pa ka mete yon moun nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka sèvi Bondye.
21 And Jesus went out thence, and withdrew into the parts of Tyre and Sidon.
Jezi kite kote l' te ye a, li ale nan zòn lavil Tir ak lavil Sidon.
22 And behold, a Canaanitish woman came out from those borders, and cried, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a demon.
Se konsa, yon fanm, moun peyi Kanaran ki t'ap viv nan zòn lan, vin jwenn li. Li pran rele: Mèt, pitit wa David la, pitye pou mwen. Pitit fi m' lan gen yon move lespri sou li k'ap fatige l' anpil.
23 But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
Men, Jezi pa okipe li menm. Disip li yo pwoche bò kote l', yo di l' konsa: Fè l' ale non. Paske, l'ap mache dèyè nou, l'ap plede rele nan zòrèy nou.
24 But he answered and said, I was not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Jezi reponn: Se sèlman pou moun ki pèdi nan ras Izrayèl la yo voye mwen.
25 But she came and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
Men, fanm lan vini, li lage kò l' nan pye Jezi, li di li konsa: Mèt, fè kichòy pou mwen non.
26 And he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children’s bread and cast it to the dogs.
Jezi reponn li: Sa pa bon pou m' wete pen nan bouch timoun yo pou m' jete l' bay chen.
27 But she said, Yea, Lord: for even the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.
Lè sa a fanm lan di li: Se vre wi, Mèt. Men, chen manje ti kal pen ki tonbe anba tab mèt li.
28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it done unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was healed from that hour.
Lè sa a, Jezi di li: Madanm. Ou gen konfyans anpil. Tout bagay ap pase pou ou jan ou vle l' la. Menm lè a, pitit fi l' la geri.
29 And Jesus departed thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and sat there.
Jezi kite kote l' te ye a, li mache sou bò lanmè Galile a. Li moute sou yon ti mòn, li chita la.
30 And there came unto him great multitudes, having with them the lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and they cast them down at his feet; and he healed them:
Yon bann moun vin jwenn li. Yo mennen moun k'ap bwete, moun ki avèg, bèbè, enfim ansanm ak anpil lòt moun malad ankò. Yo mete yo nan pye Jezi. Jezi geri yo.
31 insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb speaking, the maimed whole, and the lame walking, and the blind seeing: and they glorified the God of Israel.
Foul moun yo te sezi anpil lè yo wè sa: bèbè yo pale, enfim yo geri, moun k'ap bwete yo mache dwat, avèg yo wè. Lè sa a, yo pran fè lwanj Bondye pèp Izrayèl la.
32 And Jesus called unto him his disciples, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days and have nothing to eat: and I would not send them away fasting, lest haply they faint on the way.
Jezi rele disip li yo, li di: Kè m' fè m' mal pou moun sa yo. Sa fè twa jou depi yo la avè m', yo pa gen anyen pou yo manje ankò. Mwen pa vle voye yo ale konsa san manje. Yo ka tonbe feblès nan chemen an.
33 And the disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so many loaves in a desert place as to fill so great a multitude?
Disip yo mande li: Nan dezè sa a, ki bò pou nou jwenn pen pou bay tout moun sa yo manje?
34 And Jesus said unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few small fishes.
Jezi mande yo: Konbe pen nou gen konsa? Yo reponn li: Nou gen sèt pen ak kèk ti pwason.
35 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground;
Lè sa a, Jezi fè foul moun yo chita atè.
36 and he took the seven loaves and the fishes; and he gave thanks and brake, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.
Li pran sèt pen yo ak pwason yo, li di Bondye mèsi, li kase yo an moso, li renmèt yo bay disip li yo. Disip yo menm mache bay tout moun.
37 And they all ate, and were filled: and they took up that which remained over of the broken pieces, seven baskets full.
Tout moun te manje plen vant yo. Disip yo plen sèt panyen pote ale ak moso ki te rete yo.
38 And they that did eat were four thousand men, besides women and children.
Te gen antou katmil (4.000) gason ki te jwenn manje pou yo manje, san konte fanm ak timoun.
39 And he sent away the multitudes, and entered into the boat, and came into the borders of Magadan.
Apre sa, Jezi voye foul moun yo ale, li menm li moute nan kannòt la, li ale nan yon peyi yo rele Magadan.
