Matye 13
1 Nan jou sa a, Jésus te sòti nan kay la e te chita bò kote lanmè a.
On that day Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the sea.
2 Yon gran foul te rasanble bò kote L, epi Li te antre chita nan yon kannòt. Foul la te kanpe arebò lanmè a.
A very large crowd gathered around him, so he got into a boat and sat in it, while the whole crowd stood on the beach.
3 Li te pale anpil bagay avèk yo an parabòl konsa: “Gade byen, yon moun ki t ap plante, te ale deyò pou simen grenn.
Then Jesus said many things to them in parables. He said, “Behold, a farmer went out to sow seed.
4 Pandan li t ap simen, kèk grenn te tonbe akote wout la, e zwazo te vin manje yo.
As he sowed, some seeds fell beside the road, and the birds came and devoured them.
5 Gen lòt ki te tonbe kote ki plen wòch kote te manke tè, epi yo te leve byen vit pwiske tè a te manke pwofondè.
Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil. Immediately they sprang up, because the soil had no depth.
6 Men lè solèy la vin leve, yo te vin sèch; akoz ke yo te manke rasin, yo te vin fennen.
But when the sun had risen, they were scorched because they had no root, and they withered away.
7 Lòt te tonbe pami pikan e pikan yo te leve toufe yo.
Other seeds fell among the thorn plants. The thorn plants grew up and choked them.
8 Lòt te tonbe nan bon tè kote yo te bay yon bon rekòlt; kèk miltipliye san fwa, kèk swasant fwa, e kèk trant fwa.
Other seeds fell on good soil and produced a crop, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
9 Sila ki gen zòrèy la, kite li tande.”
He who has ears, let him listen.”
10 Disip Li yo te vin kote L e te mande: “Poukisa ou pale avèk yo an parabòl konsa?”
The disciples came and said to Jesus, “Why do you talk to the crowd in parables?”
11 Li te reponn yo: “A nou menm, li pèmèt pou nou konnen sekrè a wayòm syèl la, men pou yo menm, sa poko pèmèt.
Jesus answered and said to them, “You have been given the privilege of understanding mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
12 Paske pou nenpòt moun ki genyen, l ap vin resevwa plis, e l ap gen an abondans; men pou nenpòt moun ki pa genyen, menm sa li genyen an ap retire nan men l.
For whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.
13 Se pou sa Mwen pale ak yo an parabòl; paske pandan y ap gade yo p ap wè, e pandan y ap tande yo p ap koute, ni yo p ap konprann.
This is why I talk to them in parables: Though they are seeing, they do not see; and though they are hearing, they do not hear, or understand.
14 Se nan yo menm, ke pwofesi Ésaïe a ap akonpli lè l di: ‘Nou va kontinye tande, men nou p ap konprann; nou va kontinye gade, men nap manke apèsi.
To them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, that which says, 'While hearing you will hear, but you will in no way understand; while seeing you will see, but you will in no way perceive.
15 Paske kè a pèp sa a pa sansib ankò. Avèk zòrèy yo manke tande e yo fèmen zye yo; otreman yo ta wè avèk zye yo, tande avèk zòrèy yo, konprann avèk kè yo, e retounen pou M ta kapab geri yo.’
For this people's heart has become dull, and they are hard of hearing, and they have closed their eyes, so they should not see with their eyes, or hear with their ears, or understand with their hearts, so they would turn again, and I would heal them.'
16 “Men beni se zye pa nou paske yo wè; e zòrèy nou paske yo tande.
But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.
17 Anverite, Mwen di nou ke anpil pwofèt ak moun ladwati te vle wè sa ke nou menm wè a, men yo pa t janm wè; e pou tande sa ke nou tande a, men yo pa t tande l.
Truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things that you see, and did not see them. They desired to hear the things that you hear, and did not hear them.
18 “Pou sa, tande parabòl moun ki t ap simen an.
Listen then to the parable of the farmer who sowed his seed.
19 Lè nenpòt moun tande pawòl wayòm nan e li pa konprann li, mechan an (Satan) vini rache sa ki te plante nan kè li a. Sa se grenn ki te simen akote wout la.
When anyone hears the word of the kingdom but does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is the seed that was sown beside the road.
20 Sa ki te simen nan wòch yo se moun ki tande pawòl la e imedyatman li resevwa l avèk jwa;
What was sown on rocky ground is the person who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy,
21 men li pa gen rasin pou kont li, e li dire sèlman pou yon moman. Lè gen afliksyon avèk pèsekisyon akoz pawòl la, byen vit li chite.
yet he has no root in himself and he endures for a while. When tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, he quickly falls away.
22 Epi sila ki te simen pami pikan yo se moun ki tande pawòl la, men tout pwoblèm mond sa a, avèk sediksyon richès yo toufe pawòl la, e li pa donnen fwi. (aiōn g165)
What was sown among the thorn plants, this is the person who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
23 Konsa, sila ki te gen grenn ki tonbe nan bon tè a, se moun ki tande pawòl la e ki konprann li. Li vrèman pote fwi ki pwodwi pafwa, san fwa, pafwa swasant fwa, e pafwa trant fwa sa li te simen an.”
What was sown on the good soil, this is the person who hears the word and understands it. He bears fruit and makes a crop, some yielding one hundred times as much as was planted, some sixty, and some thirty times as much.”
24 Jésus te bay yo yon lòt parabòl. Li te di: “Wayòm syèl la se kon yon nonm ki simen bon semans nan chan li.
Jesus presented another parable to them. He said, “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.
25 Men pandan ouvriye li yo t ap dòmi, lènmi li yo te vin simen zèb pikan pami ble a, e ale.
But while people slept, his enemy came and also sowed weeds among the wheat and then went away.
26 Men lè ble a te vin leve e fòme tèt grenn, zèb pikan yo te parèt tou.
When the blades sprouted and then produced their crop, then the weeds appeared also.
27 Epi esklav a mèt tè yo te vin di l: ‘Mèt, èske nou pa t simen bon semans nan chan ou an? Kijan konsa li vin plen avèk zèb pikan sa yo.’
The servants of the landowner came and said to him, 'Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How does it now have weeds?'
28 “Epi Li te di yo: ‘Yon lènmi te fè sa!’ E esklav yo te di li: ‘Ou pa vle nou ale ranmase yo?’
He said to them, 'An enemy has done this.' The servants said to him, 'So do you want us to go and pull them out?'
29 “Men li te di yo: ‘Non, paske pandan nou ap ranmase zèb pikan yo, nou kab derasinen ble a tou.
The landowner said, 'No. Because while you are pulling out the weeds, you might uproot the wheat with them.
30 Kite toulède grandi ansanm jouk rekòlt la rive. Nan tan rekòlt la, mwen va di ouvriye yo, premyèman, ranmase zèb pikan yo, mare yo nan pake e brile yo. Men ranmase ble a pou mete li nan depo mwen.’”
Let both grow together until the harvest. At the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, “First pull out the weeds and tie them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.”'”
31 Li te pale yon lòt parabòl a yo menm. Li te di: “Wayòm syèl la tankou yon grenn moutad ke yon nonm te pran pou simen nan jaden li.
Then Jesus presented another parable to them. He said, “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed which a man took and sowed in his field.
32 Malgre grenn sa a pi piti pase tout lòt grenn yo, lè li vin grandi, li pi gran pase tout lòt plant nan jaden an, e te vin fè yon pyebwa kote tout zwazo ki vole anlè vin fè nich nan branch li yo.”
This seed is indeed the smallest of all seeds. But when it has grown, it is greater than the garden plants. It becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches.”
33 Li pale yon lòt parabòl a yo menm konsa: “Wayòm syèl la tankou ledven ke yon fanm te pran pou sere nan twa mezi farin jiskaske tout vin leve.”
Jesus then told them another parable. “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed with three measures of flour until all the dough had risen.”
34 Tout bagay sa yo, Jésus te pale a foul la an parabòl, epi Li pa t pale avèk yo san parabòl.
All these things Jesus said to the crowds in parables; and he said nothing to them without a parable.
35 Se te pou akonpli sa ki te pale pa pwofèt yo lè yo te di: “Mwen va ouvri bouch Mwen an parabòl; Mwen va eksprime sekrè ki kache depi fondasyon mond sa a.”
This was in order that what had been said through the prophet might come true, when he said, “I will open my mouth in parables. I will say things that were hidden from the foundation of the world.”
36 Apre sa, Li kite foul la e Li te ale nan kay la. Disip Li yo te vin kote l pou di: “Eksplike nou parabòl konsènan zèb pikan nan chan an.”
Then Jesus left the crowds and went into the house. His disciples came to him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.”
37 Li te di: “Sila a ki simen bon semans lan se Fis a Lòm nan.
Jesus answered and said, “He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.
38 Chan an se lemonn, e bon semans lan, se sila yo ki fis a wayòm nan. Zèb pikan yo se sila yo ki fis a mechan an.
The field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,
39 Epi lènmi ki te simen move grenn nan se Satan. Rekòlt la se fen tan yo, epi ouvriye yo se zanj yo. (aiōn g165)
and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. (aiōn g165)
40 Pou sa, menm jan ke zèb pikan yo ranmase e brile avèk dife, konsa sa ap ye nan fen tan yo. (aiōn g165)
Therefore, as the weeds are gathered up and burned with fire, so will it be at the end of the age. (aiōn g165)
41 Fis a Lòm nan ap voye zanj li yo pou ranmase fè sòti nan wayòm Li an, tout obstak ki fè moun tonbe, avèk tout sila k ap fè mechanste.
The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all the things that cause sin and those who commit iniquity.
42 L ap jete yo nan founo dife a e nan plas sa a, y ap kriye e y ap manje dan yo.
They will throw them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.
43 Konsa, sila ki gen ladwati yo ap fè klè tankou solèy la nan wayòm Papa yo a. Sila ki gen zòrèy la, kite l tande.
Then will the righteous people shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him listen.
44 “Wayòm syèl la tankou yon trezò ki te sere nan yon chan. Yon nonm te twouve li e te sere l ankò. Ranpli ak lajwa, li te kouri ale vann tout sa li te posede, e te achte chan sa a.
The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in a field. A man found it and hid it. In his joy he goes, sells everything he possesses, and buys that field.
45 “Ankò, wayòm syèl la tankou yon machann k ap chèche bèl pèl.
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is a merchant looking for valuable pearls.
46 Lè li twouve youn ki gen gran valè, li te ale vann tout sa li te posede pou te achte l.
When he found one pearl of very great value, he went and sold everything that he possessed and bought it.
47 “Ankò, wayòm syèl la se yon filè ki voye nan lanmè pou ranmase tout kalite pwason.
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea, and that gathered creatures of every kind.
48 Lè l fin ranpli, yo rale li atè. Yo te chita pou mete bon pwason nan yon veso, e te jete move yo.
When it was filled, the fishermen drew it up on the beach. Then they sat down and gathered the good things into containers, but the worthless things they threw away.
49 Konsa sa ap ye nan fen tan yo. Zanj yo ap tou parèt e y ap fè triyaj mechan yo pami jis yo. (aiōn g165)
It will be this way at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from among the righteous. (aiōn g165)
50 Epi y ap jete mechan yo nan founo dife a, kote y ap kriye e manje dan yo.
They will throw them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.
51 “Èske nou konprann tout bagay sa yo?” Yo reponn Li: “Wi”.
Have you understood all these things?” The disciples said to him, “Yes.”
52 Epi Jésus te di yo: “Konsa, chak skrib ki vini yon disip a wayòm nan se tankou yon mèt kay ki fè vin parèt nan trezò li sa ki nèf ak sa ki vye.”
Then Jesus said to them, “Therefore every scribe who has become a disciple to the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is the owner of a house, who draws out old and new things from his treasure.”
53 Lè Jésus te fini avèk parabòl sa yo, li kite la.
Then it came about that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from that place.
54 Li rive nan vil pa Li a, e Li te kòmanse preche nan sinagòg yo, jiskaske yo te etone e te di: “Kote nonm sa a twouve sajès sila a ak pouvwa fè mirak sa yo?
Then Jesus entered his own region and taught the people in their synagogue. The result was that they were astonished and said, “Where does this man get his wisdom and these miracles from?
55 Se pa pitit a chapant la? Èske yo pa rele manman L Marie, e frè li yo Jacques, Joseph, Simon ak Judas?
Is not this man the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? Are not his brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas?
56 Epi sè Li yo; èske yo tout pa avèk nou? Ebyen, kote nonm sa a twouve tout bagay sa yo?”
Are not all his sisters with us? Where did he get all these things?”
57 Konsa, yo te pran ofans de Li. Men Jésus te di yo: “Yon pwofèt p ap janm manke respè sof ke nan pwòp vil li, ak nan pwòp kay li.”
They were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own family.”
58 Li pa t fè anpil mirak la akoz ke yo pa t kwè.
He did not do many miracles there because of their unbelief.
