Luke 20
1 AND it came to pass, on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and scribes with the elders came upon him,
Yon jou konsa, Jezi te nan tanp lan; li t'ap moutre pèp la anpil bagay; li t'ap anonse yo bon nouvèl la. Chèf prèt yo, dirèktè lalwa yo ak chèf fanmi yo vin rive.
2 and spake to him, saying, Tell us by what authority thou doest these things or who is he that giveth thee this authority?
Yo di li: Manyè di nou ki dwa ou genyen pou w'ap fè tout bagay sa yo? Wi, kilès ki ba ou otorite pou fè yo?
3 Then he answering said to them, I also will ask you one question; and resolve me:
Jezi reponn yo: Mwen pral poze nou yon keksyon, mwen menm tou.
4 The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?
Di mwen kilès ki te voye Jan Batis batize moun: Bondye osinon lèzòm?
5 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we reply, From heaven; he will say, Wherefore then did ye not believe him?
Men, yonn t'ap di lòt: Si nou reponn se Bondye ki voye l', la mande nou poukisa nou pa t' kwè li.
6 But if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us: for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
Si nou reponn se lèzòm ki voye l', tout pèp la va touye nou ak kout wòch, paske yo tout te gen konviksyon Jan Batis te yon pwofèt.
7 And they answered, We know not from whence.
Lè sa a yo reponn li: Nou pa konn ki moun ki te voye l' batize.
8 And Jesus said to them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
Jezi di yo: Enben, mwen menm tou, mwen p'ap di nou avèk ki otorite m'ap fè bagay sa yo.
9 Then he began to speak to the people this parable: A certain man planted a vineyard, and delivered it to husbandmen, and went abroad for a long while.
Apre sa, Jezi pran rakonte pèp la parabòl sa a: Vwala, se te yon nonm ki te plante yon jaden rezen. Li antann li avèk kèk moun pou okipe jaden an pou li. Apre sa, li kite peyi a, li al fè lontan deyò.
10 And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that they might give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat, and sent him away empty.
Lè sezon rekòt la rive, li voye yon domestik kote moun ki t'ap pran swen jaden an pou li. Li te voye chache pòsyon pa l' nan rekòt rezen an nan men yo. Men, kiltivatè yo bat domestik la byen bat, epi yo voye l' tounen bay mèt jaden an san yo pa ba l' anyen.
11 And he again sent another servant: and him also they beat, and treating him with indignity, sent him away empty.
Mèt jaden an voye yon lòt domestik kote yo ankò. Men, yo bat li byen bat, yo joure l' byen joure, epi yo voye l' tounen san yo pa ba l' anyen.
12 And he sent yet a third: and him they also wounded, and cast out.
Mèt jaden an voye yon twazyèm domestik. Fwa sa a, yo blese l', yo mete l' deyò.
13 Then said the master of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: probably when they see him, they will shew him respect.
Lè sa a, mèt jaden an di: Kisa pou m' fè? Bon, mwen pral voye pitit gason mwen renmen anpil la. Omwens y'a gen respè pou li.
14 But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be our own.
Men, lè kiltivatè yo wè pitit mèt jaden an, yonn di lòt: Men eritye a! Ann touye l', konsa jaden an va rete pou nou.
15 So casting him out of the vineyard, they slew him. What then will the master of the vineyard do with these men?
Yo jete l' deyò jaden an, yo touye li. Atò, kisa mèt jaden an pral fè yo?
16 He will come and destroy these husbandmen, and give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said God forbid.
L'ap vini, l'ap fè touye tout kiltivatè yo, epi l'ap bay lòt moun jaden rezen an. Lè pèp la tande sa, yo di: Mande Bondye padon!
17 Then he looked on them, and said, What is this then which is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
Men, Jezi gade yo, li mande yo: Ki sans nou bay pawòl sa ki ekri a: Wòch moun ki t'ap bati yo te voye jete a, se li menm ki tounen wòch ki kenbe kay la.
18 Every one who falleth upon this stone shall be broken to pieces; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
Tout moun ki bite sou wòch sa a gen pou kase ren yo. Men, si se wòch la menm ki tonbe sou yon moun, li gen pou l' kraze moun lan an miyèt moso.
19 And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him at that time; and were afraid of the people: for they knew that he had spoken this parable against them.
Menm lè a, chèf prèt yo ak dirèktè lalwa yo t'ap chache mete men sou li, paske yo te byen konnen se pou yo Jezi te bay parabòl sa a. Men, yo te pè pèp la.
20 And watching him, they sent men they had suborned, who pretended that they were righteous persons, in order to lay hold of some word of his, that they might deliver him to the power and authority of the governor.
Yo pran veye Jezi. Yo voye espyon dèyè li. Espyon yo pran pòz moun debyen yo, pou wè si yo te ka pran yon pawòl nan bouch li pou akize li. Konsa, yo ta kapab lage l' nan men gouvènè a ki te gen pouvwa ak tout otorite.
21 And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou speakest and teachest rightly, and respectest no man’s person, but teachest the way of God in truth:
Espyon yo poze l' keksyon sa a: Mèt, nou konnen ou se moun serye. Tou sa ou di ak tou sa ou moutre nou se verite. Ou pa gade sou figi moun, men ou moutre chemen Bondye a jan li ye a.
22 Is it lawful for us to pay tribute to Caesar, or not?
Manyè di nou: Eske lalwa nou an pèmèt nou peye Seza lajan kontribisyon an, wi ou non?
23 Then he, aware of their crafty design, said unto them, Why tempt ye me?
Men, Jezi wè se nan pèlen yo te vle pran li. Li di yo:
24 Shew me a denarius. Whose image and inscription hath it? And they answering said, Caesar’s.
Moutre m' yon pyès lajan. Pòtre ki moun ak non ki moun ki sou pyès lajan an? Yo reponn li: Se pòtre Seza ak non Seza.
25 Then said he to them, Pay therefore to Caesar the things which are Caesar’s, and to God the things which are God’s.
Lè sa a li di yo: Enben, bay Seza sak pou Seza, bay Bondye sak pou Bondye.
26 And they were unable to lay hold of a single expression of his before the people: and marvelling at his answer, they were silenced.
Yo pa t' kapab jwenn anyen ki mal nan sa l' t'ap di devan pèp la. Okontrè, pawòl sa a te fè yo pi sezi ankò. Yo fèmen bouch yo san di yon mo.
27 Then certain of the Sadducees, who contend that there is no resurrection, asked him,
Sadiseyen yo se yon gwoup jwif ki di moun mouri pa leve ankò. Gen kèk ladan yo ki vin bò kot Jezi ak yon keksyon. Yo di l' konsa:
28 saying, Master, Moses wrote for us, If a man’s brother die, having a wife, and he die childless, that his brother should take the wife, and raise up seed for his brother.
Mèt, Moyiz te ekri lòd sa a ban nou: Lè yon nonm marye mouri san kite pitit, si l' gen yon frè, frè a gen pou l' marye avèk madanm defen an pou l' sa fè pitit pou frè l' ki mouri a.
29 Now there were seven brothers: and the first taking a wife, died childless.
Se konsa, te gen sèt frè. Premye a marye, li mouri san l' pa kite pitit.
30 And the second taking the wife, he also died childless.
Dezyèm lan marye ak vèv la. Apre sa, twazyèm lan marye avè l' tou.
31 Then the third took her; and also all the seven in like manner: and left no children, and died.
Konsa konsa, sèt frè yo marye ak fanm lan yonn apre lòt, epi yo tout yo mouri san kite pitit.
32 And last of all died also the woman.
Apre yo tout fin mouri, fanm lan mouri poutèt pa l' tou.
33 In the resurrection therefore whose wife of them shall she be? for the seven had her to wife.
Lè mò yo va gen pou yo leve, fanm sa a ki te madanm tout sèt frè yo, madanm kilès nan yo li pral ye la a menm?
34 And Jesus in reply said to them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: (aiōn g165)
Jezi reponn yo: Isit sou latè, fanm ak gason nan marye. (aiōn g165)
35 but they who are counted worthy to attain to that world, and the resurrection of the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: (aiōn g165)
Men, fanm ak gason ki merite pou yo leve soti vivan nan lanmò pou yo ka patisipe nan lavi k'ap vini an, moun sa yo pa nan marye ankò. (aiōn g165)
36 neither can they die any more: for they are like the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
Yo pa ka mouri ankò, se tankou zanj Bondye yo ye, yo se pitit Bondye, paske yo leve soti vivan nan lanmò.
37 Now that the dead are raised, even Moses intimated at the bush, when he called the Lord, “the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.”
Wi, moun mouri gen pou yo leve. Se Moyiz menm ki moutre nou sa, lè bò ti touf bwa a, li te rele Bondye: Bondye Abraram, Bondye Izarak, Bondye Jakòb.
38 Now God is not the God of the dead, but of the living: for all live with him.
Bondye se Bondye moun vivan li ye, li pa Bondye moun mouri, paske pou li tout moun vivan.
39 Then some of the scribes addressing him said, Master, admirably hast thou spoken!
Lè sa a, kèk dirèktè lalwa pran lapawòl, yo di: Mèt, ou byen pale.
40 And after that they durst not put another question to him.
Apre sa, yo pa t' gen odas poze l' ankenn lòt keksyon.
41 Then he spake to them: How say they that the Messiah is the son of David?
Jezi di yo: Ki jan yo fè di Kris la se pitit pitit David li ye?
42 Yet David himself, in the book of Psalms, saith, “The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit down at my right hand,
Men, sa David menm te di nan liv Sòm yo: Bondye Mèt la te di Seyè mwen an: Chita la sou bò dwat mwen,
43 until I put thine enemies for a footstool of thy feet.”
jouk tan mwen fè lènmi yo tounen yon ti ban pou lonje pye ou.
44 David then calleth him Lord, and how then is he his son?
Si David rele Kris la Seyè, ki jan pou Kris la ta ka pitit pitit li?
45 And whilst all the people were hearkening, he said to his disciples,
Lè sa a, tout pèp la t'ap koute Jezi. Li di disip li yo:
46 Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk about in trailing robes, and love salutations in the public places, and the principal seats in the synagogues, and the most honourable couch at suppers;
Pran prekosyon nou avèk dirèktè lalwa yo. Yo renmen pwonmennen avèk rad long yo; yo renmen moun bese tèt yo jouk atè pou di yo bonjou sou plas piblik; lè y' al nan sinagòg, yo toujou ap chache pou yo chita kote pou tout moun ka wè yo; nan resepsyon yo chache pi bon plas la.
47 who devour the houses of widows, and for a pretext make long prayers: these shall receive a more abundant punishment.
Se piye y'ap piye pòv vèv yo, anmenmtan y'ap plede fè lapriyè byen long pou parèt pi bon. Chatiman moun sa yo pral pi rèd.
