Acts 15
1 Then came downe certaine from Iudea, and taught the brethren, saying, Except ye be circumcised after the maner of Moses, ye cannot be saued.
Kèk mesye soti nan peyi Jide rive lavil Antiòch. Yo t'ap moutre frè yo yon bann bagay, yo t'ap di: Bondye p'ap kapab delivre nou si yo pa sikonsi nou, jan lalwa Moyiz mande l' la.
2 And when there was great dissension, and disputation by Paul and Barnabas against them, they ordeyned that Paul and Barnabas, and certaine other of them, should goe vp to Hierusalem vnto the Apostles and Elders about this question.
Pòl ak Banabas pa t' dakò menm ak moun sa yo. Sa te fè yon gwo diskisyon. Se konsa, frè yo deside voye Pòl, Banabas ansanm ak kèk lòt moun Antiòch moute Jerizalèm pou regle keksyon sa a ak apòt yo ansanm ak chèf fanmi yo.
3 Thus being brought forth by ye Church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conuersion of the Gentiles, and they brought great ioy vnto all the brethren.
Se legliz la ki te voye yo fè vwayaj sa a. Yo pase nan Finisi ak nan Samari. Sou tout wout la, yo t'ap rakonte ki jan moun ki pa jwif yo te tounen vin jwenn Bondye. Tout frè yo te kontan anpil lè yo tande sa.
4 And when they were come to Hierusalem, they were receiued of the Church, and of the Apostles and Elders, and they declared what things God had done by them.
Lè yo rive Jerizalèm, tout legliz la, apòt yo ak chèf fanmi yo te byen resevwa yo. Pòl ak Banabas rakonte moun Jerizalèm yo tou sa Bondye te ba yo pouvwa fè pou li.
5 But said they, certaine of the sect of the Pharises, which did beleeue, rose vp, saying, that it was needefull to circumcise them, and to commaund them to keepe the lawe of Moses.
Se lè sa a kèk disip, ansyen patizan farizyen yo, kanpe, yo di: Se pou n' sikonsi moun lòt nasyon yo tou. Se pou n' mande yo pou yo obeyi lalwa Moyiz la tou.
6 Then the Apostles and Elders came together to looke to this matter.
Apòt yo ak chèf fanmi yo sanble pou egzaminen keksyon an.
7 And when there had bene great disputation, Peter rose vp, and said vnto them, Ye men and brethren, ye know that a good while ago, among vs God chose out me, that the Gentiles by my mouth should heare the worde of the Gospel, and beleeue.
Lè yo fin diskite kont yo, Pyè kanpe, li di yo: Frè m' yo, nou konnen ki jan, depi lontan, Bondye te chwazi m' nan nou tout pou m' anonse bon nouvèl la bay moun lòt nasyon yo, pou yo menm tou, yo ka tande l' pou yo rive kwè nan Bondye.
8 And God which knoweth the heartes, bare them witnesse, in giuing vnto them ye holy Ghost euen as he did vnto vs.
Enben, Bondye ki konnen sa ki nan kè moun, li moutre nou ki jan li menm li asepte yo: li ba yo Sentespri menm jan li te fè l' pou nou an.
9 And he put no difference betweene vs and them, after that by faith he had purified their heartes.
Li pa t' fè okenn diferans ant yo menm ak nou menm: nou wè li lave kè yo paske yo te kwè nan li.
10 Nowe therefore, why tempt ye God, to lay a yoke on the disciples neckes, which neither our fathers, nor we were able to beare?
Koulye a, poukisa pou n'ap seye fè plan ak Bondye konsa, lè nou vle fè disip yo pote yon chay ni zansèt nou ni nou menm nou pa t' ka pote?
11 But we beleeue, through the grace of the Lord Iesus Christ to be saued, euen as they doe.
Okontrè, nou kwè se yon favè Jezikri fè nou lè l' delivre nou, menm jan li fè l' pou yo tou.
12 Then all the multitude kept silence, and heard Barnabas and Paul, which told what signes and wonders God had done among the Gentiles by them.
Apre sa, tout moun pe bouch yo, yo t'ap koute Banabas ak Pòl ki t'ap rakonte tout bèl bagay ak tout mirak Bondye te ba yo pouvwa fè pou li nan mitan moun lòt nasyon yo.
13 And when they helde their peace, Iames answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken vnto me.
Lè yo fin pale, Jak pran lapawòl, li di: Frè m' yo, koute mwen.
14 Simeon hath declared, howe God first did visite the Gentiles, to take of them a people vnto his Name.
Simon fèk esplike nou ki jan, depi nan konmansman, Bondye te pran swen moun lòt nasyon yo pou l' te ka chwazi nan mitan yo yon pèp ki pou pote non li.
15 And to this agree the woordes of the Prophets, as it is written,
Sou pwen sa a, pawòl pwofèt yo dakò nèt. Men sa ki ekri nan Liv la:
16 After this I will returne, and will builde againe the tabernacle of Dauid, which is fallen downe, and the ruines thereof will I build againe, and I will set it vp,
Apre sa, m'a retounen. Se Bondye k'ap pale. M'a rebati kay David la ki te fin tonbe, m'a repare mazi li yo, m'a kanpe kay li a ankò.
17 That the residue of men might seeke after the Lord, and all the Gentiles vpon whom my Name is called, saith the Lord which doeth all these things.
Konsa, tout lòt moun yo va chache Bondye, ansanm ak tout nasyon mwen chwazi pou pote non mwen.
Men sa Bondye di. Se li menm ki fè nou konnen bagay sa yo depi lontan. (aiōn g165)
19 Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them of the Gentiles that are turned to God,
Se poutèt sa, mwen menm, Jak, mwen kwè nou pa dwe antrave moun lòt nasyon yo ki vin jwenn Bondye.
20 But that we send vnto them, that they abstaine themselues from filthinesse of idoles, and fornication, and that that is strangled, and from blood.
Men, ann ekri yo, ann mande yo pou yo pa manje vyann bèt yo te ofri pou touye pou zidòl, pou yo egzante tout dezòd lachè, pou yo pa manje ni vyann bèt ki mouri toufe, ni san.
21 For Moses of olde time hath in euery citie them that preache him, seeing he is read in the Synagogues euery Sabbath day.
Paske, depi lontan lontan, y'ap fè konnen lalwa Moyiz la nan tout lavil yo. Se chak jou repo y'ap li l' pou yo nan sinagòg yo.
22 Then it seemed good to the Apostles and Elders with the whole Church, to sende chosen men of their owne companie to Antiochia with Paul and Barnabas: to wit, Iudas whose surname was Barsabas and Silas, which were chiefe men among the brethren,
Lè sa a, apòt yo, chèf fanmi yo ansanm ak tout legliz la deside pou yo chwazi kèk moun pami yo ki pou vwayaje al Antiòch ansanm ak Pòl ak Banabas. Yo chwazi Jid, ki te rele Basabas, ak Silas, de moun frè yo te respekte anpil.
23 And wrote letters by them after this maner, THE APOSTLES, and the Elders, and the brethren, vnto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antiochia, and in Syria, and in Cilicia, send greeting.
Yo te ba yo lèt sa a pote ale: Apòt yo ak chèf fanmi yo, ki frè nou, voye bonjou pou tout frè nan moun lòt nasyon yo k'ap viv nan lavil Antiòch, nan peyi Siri ak nan peyi Silisi.
24 Forasmuch as we haue heard, that certaine which went out from vs, haue troubled you with wordes, and cumbred your mindes, saying, Ye must be circumcised and keepe the Lawe: to whom we gaue no such commandement,
Nou te vin konnen te gen moun ki soti bò isit la al lakay nou. Yo pa t' manke boulvèse nou, yo pa t' manke fatige nou ak pawòl yo t'ap di. Men, nou menm nou pa t' ba yo okenn lòd konsa.
25 It seemed therefore good to vs, when we were come together with one accord, to send chosen men vnto you, with our beloued Barnabas and Paul,
Se poutèt sa, nou tout ki isit la, nou tonbe dakò pou nou chwazi kèk delege n'ap voye bò kote nou. Y'ap vwayaje ansanm ak Pòl ak Banabas, de frè nou renmen anpil,
26 Men that haue giuen vp their liues for the Name of our Lord Iesus Christ.
ki te riske lavi yo pou non Jezikri, Seyè nou an.
27 We haue therefore sent Iudas and Silas, which shall also tell you ye same things by mouth.
Se konsa, nou voye Jid ak Silas ki va ban nou menm mesaj la ak pwòp bouch yo.
28 For it seemed good to the holy Ghost, and to vs, to lay no more burden vpon you, then these necessary things,
Pou Sentespri a ak pou nou menm, men sa nou jwenn ki bon pou di nan keksyon sa a: Nou p'ap mete lòt chay sou zepòl nou pase sa n' dwe mete.
29 That is, that ye abstaine from things offered to idoles, and blood, and that that is strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keepe your selues, ye shall doe well. Fare ye well.
Pa manje vyann bèt ki te ofri pou zidòl, pa manje san, pa manje vyann bèt ki mouri toufe, egzante tout dezòd lachè. N'a fè byen si nou pa fè bagay sa yo. Bondye ak nou!
30 Nowe when they were departed, they came to Antiochia, and after that they had assembled the multitude, they deliuered the Epistle.
Apre sa, moun legliz Jerizalèm yo kite delege yo ale. Delege yo pati pou Antiòch. Lè yo rive, yo sanble tout moun ki te kwè yo, yo renmèt yo lèt la.
31 And when they had read it, they reioyced for the consolation.
Lè yo fin li lèt la pou yo, tout moun te kontan pou bèl ankourajman lèt la te pote ba yo.
32 And Iudas and Silas being Prophets, exhorted the brethren with many wordes, and strengthened them.
Jid ak Silas te de pwofèt. Yo pale lontan avèk frè yo, yo ba yo kont ankourajman ak fòs.
33 And after they had taried there a space, they were let goe in peace of the brethren vnto the Apostles.
Yo pase kèk tan nan lavil Antiòch. Apre sa, frè yo swate yo bòn vwayaj ak kè poze. Yo menm, yo tounen ale jwenn moun ki te voye yo.
34 Notwithstanding Silas thought good to abide there still.
Men, Silas te pran desizyon pou l' te rete.
35 Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antiochia, teaching and preaching with many other, the worde of the Lord.
Pòl ak Banabas pase kèk tan nan Antiòch. Ansanm ak anpil lòt frè, yo t'ap moutre moun yo anpil bagay, yo t'ap fè yo konnen pawòl Seyè a.
36 But after certaine dayes, Paul said vnto Barnabas, Let vs returne, and visite our brethren in euery citie, where we haue preached the worde of the Lord, and see how they doe.
Kèk tan apre, Pòl di Banabas konsa: Ann al vizite frè yo ki nan tout lavil kote nou te anonse Pawòl Seyè a. Ann al wè ki jan yo ye.
37 And Barnabas counselled to take with them Iohn, called Marke.
Banabas te vle mennen Jan ki te gen ti non Mak la avèk yo.
38 But Paul thought it not meete to take him vnto their companie, which departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the worke.
Men, Pòl pa t' kwè se te yon bon lide pou yo te mennen l', paske, dènye fwa a, li te pati kite yo nan Panfili, li pa t' rete nèt ak yo jouk vwayaj la te fini.
39 Then were they so stirred, that they departed asunder one from the other, so that Barnabas tooke Marke, and sailed vnto Cyprus.
Lè sa a, yon diskisyon byen cho leve ant Pòl ak Banabas, tèlman yo separe yonn ak lòt. Banabas pran Mak avèk li, yo pran yon batiman, y' ale lil Chip.
40 And Paul chose Silas and departed, being commended of the brethren vnto the grace of God.
Pòl menm chwazi Silas. Apre frè yo fin renmèt li nan men Bondye k'ap ba l' favè l', li pati.
41 And he went through Syria and Cilicia, stablishing the Churches.
Li pase nan peyi Siri ak peyi Silisi; sou tout wout la li t'ap fòtifye legliz yo nan konfyans yo nan Bondye.
