Matthew 21

And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,

Yo t'ap pwoche bò lavil Jerizalèm, yo te gen tan rive nan bouk Betfaje, toupre mòn Oliv la. Lè sa a, Jezi voye de nan disip li yo,

Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me.

li di yo: Ale nan bouk ki devan nou an. Kou n'a rive, n'a jwenn yon manman bourik mare, ak yon jenn ti bourik avèk li. Lage yo, mennen yo ban mwen.

And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.

Si yon moun di nou kichòy, n'a reponn: Se Mèt la ki bezwen yo. Menm lè a, la kite nou ale ak yo.

All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,

Sa te rive konsa pou pawòl pwofèt la te di a te ka rive vre:

Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.

Ale di moun lavil Siyon yo: Gade, men wa nou an ap vin jwenn nou. Li san lògèy, li moute yon bourik, yon ti bourik dèyè manman.

And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,

Disip yo ale, yo fè tou sa Jezi te bay yo lòd fè a.

And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon.

Yo mennen manman bourik la ak jenn ti bourik la, yo mete rad yo sou bèt yo, epi Jezi moute chita.

And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.

Yon foul moun te tann rad yo atè sou tout chemen an. Gen lòt menm ki te koupe branch bwa, yo mete yo atè nan chemen an.

And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.

Ni foul moun ki t'ap mache devan Jezi a, ni moun ki t'ap mache dèyè l' yo, yo tout t'ap rele: Lwanj pou Pitit David la! Benediksyon pou Moun ki vini nan non Mèt la. Lwanj pou Bondye jouk anwo nan syèl la!

And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?

Lè Jezi antre lavil Jerizalèm, tout lavil la te tèt anba. Moun yo t'ap mande: Ki moun nonm sa a ye menm?

And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.

Foul moun yo menm t'ap reponn yo: Se pwofèt Jezi, moun Nazarèt nan peyi Galile a.

And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,

Jezi antre nan tanp Bondye a, li chase tout moun ki t'ap vann ak tout moun ki t'ap achte nan tanp lan. Li chavire tab moun ki t'ap chanje lajan yo ansanm ak chèz moun ki t'ap vann pijon yo.

And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.

Apre sa, li di yo; Men sa ki ekri: y'a rele kay mwen an kay kote pou moun vin lapriyè nan pye m'. Men nou menm, nou fè l' tounen yon kachèt pou vòlè.

And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.

Kèk avèg ak kèk enfim nan pye pwoche bò kote Jezi nan tanp lan. Li geri yo.

And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David; they were sore displeased,

Men, chèf prèt yo ak dirèktè lalwa yo te fache anpil lè yo wè bèl bagay li t'ap fè, lè yo tande timoun yo ki t'ap rele nan tanp lan: Lwanj pou Pitit David la!

And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?

Yo di Jezi konsa: Eske ou pa tande sa y'ap di? Jezi reponn yo: M' tande wi. Eske nou pa janm li pawòl sa a nan Liv la: Ou fè timoun piti ak tibebe nan tete fè gwo lwanj pou ou?

And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he lodged there.

Apre sa, li kite yo, li soti lavil la, li ale Betani. Se la li pase nwit lan.

Now in the morning as he returned into the city, he hungered.

Nan denmen maten, antan yo t'ap tounen lavil Jerizalèm, Jezi te grangou.

And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away.

Li wè yon pye fig frans bò wout la, li pwoche bò kote l'. Men se fèy ase li jwenn. Lè sa a, Jezi di pye fig frans lan: Ou p'ap janm donnen ankò. Menm lè a, pye fig frans lan cheche.

And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away!

Lè disip yo wè sa, yo pa t' manke sezi, yo di li: Kouman pye fig frans lan fè vin chèch nan yon ti moman?

Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.

Jezi reponn yo: Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Si nou te gen konfyans nan Bondye, si nou pa t' gen doutans nan kè nou, se pa sèlman sak rive pye fig frans lan nou ta fè. Men, nou ta ka di mòn sa a: Wete kò ou la. Ale jete tèt ou nan lanmè. Sa ta fèt vre.

And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

Si nou gen konfyans nan Bondye, n'a resevwa tou sa n'a mande l' lè n'ap lapriyè.

And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?

Jezi antre nan tanp lan, li t'ap moutre moun yo anpil bagay. Chèf prèt yo avèk chèf fanmi ki t'ap dirije pèp jwif la vin di li: Ki dwa ou genyen pou w'ap fè tout bagay sa yo? Kilès ki ba ou otorite sa a?

And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I do these things.

Jezi reponn yo: M'ap poze nou yon keksyon mwen menm tou. Si nou reponn mwen, m'a di nou ki dwa mwen genyen pou m' fè bagay sa yo.

The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why did ye not then believe him?

Ki moun ki te voye Jan batize moun? Bondye osinon moun? Men, yonn t'ap di lòt konsa: Si nou reponn: Se Bondye ki te voye l', la mande nou poukisa nou pa t' kwè l'.

But if we shall say, Of men; we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet.

Si nou reponn: Se moun ki te voye l', afè nou p'ap bon ak foul moun yo, paske yo tout te pran Jan Batis pou yon bon pwofèt.

And they answered Jesus, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

Apre sa, yo reponn Jezi: Nou pa konnen. Jezi di yo: Enben, mwen menm tou, mwen p'ap di nou ki dwa mwen genyen pou m' fè bagay sa yo.

But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard.

Sa nou konprann nan sa? Vwala se te yon nonm ki te gen de pitit gason. Li pale ak pi gran an, li di l': Pitit mwen, jòdi a al travay nan jaden rezen an.

He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went.

Pitit la reponn li: Non, mwen pa vle! Men, pita li chanje lide, li ale.

And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not.

Apre sa, papa a pale ak lòt pi piti a, li di l' menm bagay la. Pi piti a reponn li: Wi, papa. Men, li pa janm mete pye li.

Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.

Kilès nan de pitit yo ki fè volonte papa a? Yo reponn li: Pi gran an. Lè sa a, Jezi di yo: Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Pèseptè kontribisyon ak fanm movèz vi yo va antre nan Peyi kote Bondye wa a anvan nou.

For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.

Paske, lè Jan Batis te vin bò kote nou, lè li t'ap moutre nou jan pou nou viv dwat devan Bondye a, nou pa t' kwè li. Men, pèseptè kontribisyon ak fanm movèz vi yo te kwè li. Malgre nou te wè sa, nou pa t' chanje lide nou pou n' te kwè nan li tou.

Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:

Koute yon lòt parabòl. Vwala se te yon nonm ki te gen anpil tè. Li plante yon jaden rezen. Li fèmen l' ak yon lantouraj, li fouye yon basen pou krase rezen yo. Li bati yon kay pou moun k'ap veye jaden an. Apre sa, li antann li avèk kèk moun pou okipe jaden an pou li, lèfini li pati, li al nan vwayaj.

And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.

Lè sezon rekòt rezen an rive, li voye domestik li yo chache rezen pa l' bò kote jeran yo.

And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.

Jeran yo mete men sou domestik yo, yo bat yonn byen bat, yo touye yon lòt, yo touye yon twazyèm ak kout wòch.

Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.

Mèt jaden an voye lòt domestik ankò, pi plis pase premye fwa a. Jeran yo maltrete yo menm jan an.

But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.

Apre sa, li voye pwòp pitit gason l' bò kote yo andènye. Li t'ap di nan kè l': Omwens y'a gen respè pou pitit mwen an.

But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.

Men, lè jeran yo wè pitit la, yonn di lòt: Men eritye a. Vini non, ann touye li. Konsa, jaden an va vin pou nou.

And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.

Yo mete men sou li, yo jete l' lòt bò jaden an, yo touye li.

When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?

Bon, lè mèt jaden rezen an vini, kisa li va fè jeran sa yo?

They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.

Yo reponn li: Li p'ap gen pitye pou yo. La fè touye malveyan sa yo, la pran jaden rezen an bay lòt jeran ki va ba l' pòsyon pa l' nan rekòt la lè sezon an va rive.

Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

Apre sa, Jezi di yo: Eske nou pa janm li pawòl sa yo nan Liv la? Wòch moun ki t'ap bati yo te voye jete a, se li menm ki tounen wòch ki kenbe kay la. Sa se travay Mèt la. Se bèl bagay pou nou wè sa.

Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.

Se poutèt sa mwen di nou: y'a wete Peyi kote Bondye Wa a nan men nou, y'a pran l' bay moun yon lòt nasyon ki va bay rannman pou Peyi Wa a.

And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

Moun ki bite sou wòch sa a gen pou kase ren li. Men, si se wòch la menm ki tonbe sou li, li gen pou l' kraze l' an miyèt moso.

And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.

Lè chèf prèt yo ak farizyen yo tande parabòl sa yo, yo vin konprann se pou yo Jezi t'ap pale.

But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet.

Lè sa a, yo t'ap chache yon jan pou mete men sou li. Men, yo te pè foul moun yo ki te pran Jezi pou yon bon pwofèt.
