John 6 (HAT) · Opened

1Apre sa, Jezi janbe lòt bò lanmè Galile a. Yo rele lanmè sa a lanmè Tiberyad tou.After this, Jesus crossed to the other side of the Sea of Galilee (that is, the Sea of Tiberias).

2Yon gwo foul moun t'ap swiv li, paske yo te wè mirak li t'ap fè, jan li t'ap geri anpil moun malad tou.A large crowd followed Him because they saw the signs He was performing on the sick.

3Jezi moute sou yon ti mòn, li chita la ansanm ak disip li yo.Then Jesus went up on the mountain and sat down with His disciples.

4Jou fèt Delivrans jwif yo te vanse rive.Now the Jewish Feast of the Passover was near.

5Jezi gade, li wè yon gwo foul moun ki t'ap vin jwenn li. Li rele Filip, li di l' konsa: Ki bò nou ta ka jwenn manje pou n' achte pou n' bay moun sa yo manje?When Jesus looked up and saw a large crowd coming toward Him, He said to Philip, “Where can we buy bread for these people to eat?”

6(Li t'ap di sa pou l' te wè sa Filip tapral reponn li; li menm li te byen konnen sa l' tapral fè.)But He was asking this to test him, for He knew what He was about to do.

7Filip reponn li: Menm si nou ta gen desan (200) goud pou achte pen, pa ta gen ase pou chak moun ta jwenn ti kal.Philip answered, “Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each of them to have a small piece.”

8Yon lòt nan disip yo, Andre, frè Simon Pyè a, di li:One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him,

9Gen yon ti gason la a ki gen senk pen fèt ak farenn lòj, ak de ti pwason. Men, sa pa anyen pou tout kantite moun sa yo.“Here is a boy with five barley loaves and two small fish. But what difference will these make among so many?”

10Lè sa a, Jezi di yo: Fè moun yo chita. (Te gen anpil zèb bò la.) Moun yo chita, te gen senkmil (5.000) gason konsa.“Have the people sit down,” Jesus said. Now there was plenty of grass in that place, so the men sat down, about five thousand of them.

11Jezi pran pen yo; lè li fin di Bondye mèsi pou yo, li bay tout moun ki te chita yo. Li fè menm jan an tou ak pwason yo. Yo tout te jwenn kantite yo te vle.Then Jesus took the loaves and the fish, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted.

12Lè tout fin manje vant plen, Jezi di disip li yo: Ranmase tout ti moso ki rete yo. Pa kite anyen gaspiye.And when everyone was full, He said to His disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over, so that nothing will be wasted.”

13Yo ranmase tout moso ki te rete nan senk pen moun yo te manje yo. Yo plen douz panyen pote ale.So they collected them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.

14Lè moun yo wè mirak Jezi te fè a, yo di konsa: Se vre wi, nonm sa a se pwofèt ki te gen pou vini sou latè a.When the people saw the sign that Jesus had performed, they began to say, “Truly this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.”

15Jezi te vin konnen yo tapral pran l' pa fòs pou yo fè l' wa. Li wete kò l' ankò sou ti mòn lan, men fwa sa a pou kont li.Then Jesus, realizing that they were about to come and make Him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by Himself.

16Lè solèy fin kouche, disip li yo desann bò lanmè a.When evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,

17Yo moute nan yon kannòt, yo pran travèse lanmè a nan direksyon Kapènawòm. Te fin fè nwit nèt, men Jezi pa t' ankò vin jwenn yo.got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. It was already dark, and Jesus had not yet gone out to them.

18Dlo lanmè a te move paske van an te fò.A strong wind was blowing, and the sea grew agitated.

19Yo te gen tan naje zaviwon senk a sis kilomèt konsa deja, lè yo wè Jezi ki t'ap vin bò kannòt la. Li t'ap mache sou dlo a. Yo tout te pè.When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the sea—and they were terrified.

20Men, Jezi di yo: Se mwen menm. Nou pa bezwen pè.But Jesus spoke up: “It is I; do not be afraid.”

21Yo te vle pran l' nan kannòt la, men lamenm yo fè tè: yo te gen tan rive kote yo taprale a.Then they were willing to take Him into the boat, and at once the boat reached the shore where they were heading.

22Nan denmen, foul moun ki te rete lòt bò lanmè a te wè te gen yon sèl kannòt ase. Yo te konnen Jezi pa t' moute nan kannòt la avèk disip li yo. Disip li yo te pati pou kont yo.The next day, the crowd that had remained on the other side of the sea realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not boarded it with His disciples, but they had gone away alone.

23Men, te gen lòt kannòt ki te soti lavil Tiberyad ki te rive bò kote yo te manje pen an apre Seyè a te di Bondye mèsi a.However, some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks.

24Lè foul moun yo wè ni Jezi, ni disip li yo pa t' la, yo moute nan kannòt sa yo, y' al chache l' lavil Kapènawòm.So when the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum to look for Him.

25Yo jwenn Jezi lòt bò lanmè a. Yo di li: Mèt, kilè ou gen tan rive isit la?When they found Him on the other side of the sea, they asked Him, “Rabbi, when did You get here?”

26Jezi reponn yo: Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Se pa paske nou wè mirak mwen fè yo non kifè n'ap chache m' konsa. Se paske nou manje pen plen vant nou.Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it is not because you saw these signs that you are looking for Me, but because you ate the loaves and had your fill.

27Pa travay pou manje k'ap gate! Travay pito pou manje k'ap konsève, manje k'ap bay lavi ki p'ap janm fini an. Kalite manje sa a, se Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a ki va ban nou l', paske se pou sa Bondye Papa a voye li.Do not work for food that perishes, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on Him God the Father has placed His seal of approval.”

28Lè sa a, yo mande li: Kisa pou n' fè si nou vle fè travay Bondye?Then they inquired, “What must we do to perform the works of God?”

29Jezi reponn yo: Sèl travay Bondye mande nou pou n' fè, se pou nou mete konfyans nou nan moun li voye a.Jesus replied, “The work of God is this: to believe in the One He has sent.”

30Yo di li: Ki mirak ou ka fè nou wè pou nou ka kwè nan ou? Kisa ou pral fè?So they asked Him, “What sign then will You perform, so that we may see it and believe You? What will You do?

31Zansèt nou yo te manje laman nan dezè a, jan sa ekri nan Liv la: Li ba yo pen ki soti nan syèl la pou yo manje.Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, as it is written: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’”

32Jezi reponn yo: Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Moyiz pa t' ban nou pen ki soti nan syèl la. Men, se Papa m' k'ap ban nou pen ki soti nan syèl tout bon an.Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.

33Paske pen Bondye bay la, se moun ki desann sot nan syèl la pou bay lèzòm lavi.For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”

34Yo di li: Mèt, toujou ban n' nan kalite pen sa a.“Sir,” they said, “give us this bread at all times.”

35Jezi di yo: Se mwen menm pen ki bay lavi a. Moun ki vin jwenn mwen p'ap janm grangou; moun ki kwè nan mwen p'ap janm swaf dlo.Jesus answered, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to Me will never hunger, and whoever believes in Me will never thirst.

36Men, mwen te di nou sa: nou wè m', men nou pa kwè toujou.But as I stated, you have seen Me and still you do not believe.

37Tout moun Papa a ban mwen, gen pou vin jwenn mwen. Mwen p'ap janm mete moun ki vin jwenn mwen yo deyò.Everyone the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will never drive away.

38Paske, se pa pou fè volonte pa m' mwen desann sot nan syèl la, men pou m' fè volonte moun ki voye m' lan.For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but to do the will of Him who sent Me.

39Men sa moun ki voye m' lan vle: li vle pou m' pa pèdi yonn nan moun li ban mwen yo, men pou m' fè yo leve soti vivan nan lanmò nan dènye jou a.And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall lose none of those He has given Me, but raise them up at the last day.

40Men sa Papa m' vle: Tout moun ki wè Pitit la, ki kwè nan li, se pou yo gen lavi ki p'ap janm fini an. Mwen gen pou m' fè yo leve soti vivan nan lanmò nan dènye jou a.For it is My Father’s will that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.”

41Jwif yo te fache anpil sou Jezi poutèt li te di: Se mwen menm ki pen ki desann sot nan syèl la.At this, the Jews began to grumble about Jesus because He had said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.”

42Yo t'ap di: Apa Jezi, pitit gason Jozèf la? Nou konn papa l' ak manman li. Ki jan li ka fè di koulye a li desann sot nan syèl la?They were asking, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then can He say, ‘I have come down from heaven’?”

43Jezi reponn yo: Nou pa bezwen ap bougonnen konsa.“Stop grumbling among yourselves,” Jesus replied.

44Pesonn pa ka vin jwenn mwen si Papa ki voye m' lan pa rele l' vini. Mwen menm, m'a fè l' leve soti vivan nan lanmò nan dènye jou a.“No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day.

45Se sa ki ekri nan liv pwofèt yo: Bondye menm ap moutre yo tout bagay. Tout moun ki koute Papa a, ki asepte tou sa l' moutre yo, y'ap vin jwenn mwen.It is written in the Prophets: ‘And they will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from Him comes to Me—

46Sa pa vle di gen pesonn ki janm wè Papa a. Sèl moun ki wè Papa a, se moun ki soti bò kote Bondye ye a.not that anyone has seen the Father except the One who is from God; only He has seen the Father.

47Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: moun ki mete konfyans yo nan Bondye, se yo ki gen lavi ki p'ap janm fini an.Truly, truly, I tell you, he who believes has eternal life.

48Se mwen menm pen ki bay lavi a.I am the bread of life.

49Zansèt nou yo te manje laman nan dezè a, atousa yo mouri.Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died.

50Men, moun ki manje pen ki desann sot nan syèl la, yo p'ap janm mouri.This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that anyone may eat of it and not die.

51Se mwen menm pen ki bay lavi a, pen ki desann sot nan syèl la. Si yon moun manje nan pen sa a, l'ap viv pou tout tan. Pen mwen gen pou m' bay la, se kò mwen. M'ap bay li pou tout moun ki sou latè ka jwenn lavi.I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And this bread, which I will give for the life of the world, is My flesh.”

52Pawòl sa yo fè jwif yo tonbe diskite yonn ak lòt. Yo t'ap mande: Kouman nonm sa a kapab ban nou kò l' pou n' manje?At this, the Jews began to argue among themselves, “How can this man give us His flesh to eat?”

53Jezi di yo: Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: si nou pa manje kò Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a, si nou pa bwè san li, nou p'ap gen lavi nan nou.So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you.

54Moun ki manje kò mwen, ki bwè san mwen, li gen lavi ki p'ap janm fini an. Mwen gen pou m' fè l' leve soti vivan nan lanmò nan dènye jou a.Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.

55Paske kò m', se yon manje tout bon, san mwen, se yon bwason tout bon.For My flesh is real food, and My blood is real drink.

56Moun ki manje kò m', ki bwè san m', y'ap fè yonn avè m', epi m'ap fè yonn avè yo tou.Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him.

57Papa ki voye m' lan, li vivan. Se li menm ki ban m' lavi. Konsa tou, moun ki manje m', m'a ba yo lavi.Just as the living Father sent Me and I live because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on Me will live because of Me.

58Men pen ki desann sot nan syèl la. Li pa tankou pen zansèt nou yo te manje a, paske pen yo a pa t' anpeche yo mouri. Moun ki manje pen sa a ap viv pou tout tan.This is the bread that came down from heaven. Unlike your fathers, who ate the manna and died, the one who eats this bread will live forever.”

59Jezi te di pawòl sa yo antan l' te nan sinagòg Kapènawòm lan ap moutre moun yo anpil bagay.Jesus said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.

60Lè yo fin tande sa, anpil nan disip Jezi yo di: Pawòl sa a twò rèd. Ki moun ki ka pran li?On hearing it, many of His disciples said, “This is a difficult teaching. Who can accept it?”

61Jezi te gen tan wè disip li yo t'ap bougonnen sou pawòl la. Li di yo: Sa ofiske nou, pa vre?Aware that His disciples were grumbling about this teaching, Jesus asked them, “Does this offend you?

62Kisa n'a di lè n'a wè Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a tounen moute kote l' te ye anvan an?Then what will happen if you see the Son of Man ascend to where He was before?

63Se lespri a ki bay lavi, kò a pa vo anyen. Pawòl mwen di nou yo soti nan Lespri Bondye, yo bay lavi.The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life.

64Men, gen kèk moun pami nou ki pa kwè. (Jezi te pale konsa, paske depi nan konmansman li te konnen moun ki pa t'ap kwè yo ansanm ak moun ki te gen pou trayi l' la.)However, there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray Him.)

65Li di ankò: Se poutèt sa mwen te di nou: pesonn pa ka vin jwenn mwen si se pa Bondye Papa a ki fè sa pou li.Then Jesus said, “This is why I told you that no one can come to Me unless the Father has granted it to him.”

66Depi lè sa a, anpil nan disip yo wete kò yo, yo pa mache avè l' ankò.From that time on many of His disciples turned back and no longer walked with Him.

67Lè Jezi wè sa, li di douz disip yo: Nou menm, nou pa vle ale tou?So Jesus asked the Twelve, “Do you want to leave too?”

68Simon Pyè reponn li: Seyè, ki moun pou n' al jwenn? Se ou menm ki gen pawòl k'ap bay lavi ki p'ap janm fini an.Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life.

69Koulye a nou kwè, nou konnen se ou menm ki moun Bondye chwazi a.We believe and know that You are the Holy One of God.”

70Jezi reponn yo: Eske se pa mwen ki chwazi nou touledouz? Malgre sa, yonn nan nou se yon dyab.Jesus answered them, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!”

71Li t'ap pale sou Jida, pitit Simon Iskariòt la. Paske, atout Jida te yonn nan douz disip yo, se li ki tapral trayi li.He was speaking about Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. For although Judas was one of the Twelve, he was later to betray Jesus.
