Luke 17 (HAT) · Opened

1Jezi di disip li yo: Ap toujou gen bagay k'ap fèt ki pou fè moun fè peche. Men, malè pou moun ki lakòz bagay sa yo rive.Jesus said to His disciples, “It is inevitable that stumbling blocks will come, but woe to the one through whom they come!

2Li ta pi bon pou li si yo ta mare yon gwo wòl moulen nan kou l' epi yo voye l' jete nan lanmè; wi, sa ta pi bon pou li pase pou l' ta lakòz yonn nan ti piti sa yo tonbe nan peche.It would be better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck and to be thrown into the sea than to cause one of these little ones to stumble.

3Veye kò nou byen. Si frè ou tonbe nan peche, rale zòrèy li. Si l' chanje konpòtman li, padonnen li.Watch yourselves. If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.

4Si nan yon sèl jounen an li peche sèt fwa kont ou, si toulesèt fwa yo, li tounen vin jwenn ou pou l' di ou: Mwen p'ap fè sa ankò, se pou ou padonnen li.Even if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times returns to say, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”

5Apòt yo di Jezi: Fè nou gen plis konfyans non.The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!”

6Jezi di yo: Si nou te gen konfyans nan Bondye gwosè yon ti grenn moutad, nou ta di pye sikomò sa a: Derasinen tèt ou sot la a, al plante tèt ou nan lanmè, li ta obeyi nou.And the Lord answered, “If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.

7Sipoze yonn nan nou gen yon domestik k'ap travay tè l' osinon k'ap gade mouton pou li. Lè domestik la soti nan jaden, èske l'ap di li: Pwoche vit, vin chita bò tab la pou ou manje.Which of you whose servant comes in from plowing or shepherding in the field will say to him, ‘Come at once and sit down to eat’?

8Non. Okontrè. L'ap di li: Pare manje pou mwen. Twouse ponyèt ou pou ou ka sèvi m' pandan m'ap manje, pandan m'ap bwè. Se lè m' fin manje, ou menm wa manje, wa bwè.Instead, won’t he tell him, ‘Prepare my meal and dress yourself to serve me while I eat and drink, and afterward you may eat and drink’?

9Li pa gen mèsi pou l' di domestik la paske domestik la fè sa l' te mande l' fè a, pa vre.Does he thank the servant because he did what he was told?

10Se menm jan an tou pou nou, lè nou fin fè tou sa yo te mande nou fè, se pou n' di: Se domestik nou ye, nou fè sa n' te dwe fè.So you also, when you have done everything commanded of you, should say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.’”

11Pandan Jezi te nan chemen pou li al Jerizalèm, li t'ap pase sou fwontyè ki separe peyi Samari ak peyi Galile.While Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem, He was passing between Samaria and Galilee.

12Antan l' t'ap antre nan yon bouk, dis moun ki te gen maladi lalèp vin kontre li. Yo rete kanpe byen lwen l',As He entered one of the villages, He was met by ten lepers. They stood at a distance

13yo pale byen fò, yo di l' konsa: Jezi, Mèt, gen pitye pou nou.and raised their voices, shouting, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”

14Lè Jezi wè yo, li di: Al fè prèt yo wè nou. Pandan yo taprale, yo geri.When Jesus saw them, He said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And as they were on their way, they were cleansed.

15Yonn ladan yo ki wè li geri tounen sou wout li, li t'ap fè lwanj Bondye byen fò pou tout moun tande.When one of them saw that he was healed, he came back, praising God in a loud voice.

16Li lage kò l' atè nan pye Jezi, li di l' mèsi. Nonm sa a te yon moun pèyi Samari.He fell facedown at Jesus’ feet in thanksgiving to Him—and he was a Samaritan.

17Jezi pran lapawòl, li di l': Nou toulèdis te geri pa vre. Kote nèf lòt yo?“Were not all ten cleansed?” Jesus asked. “Where then are the other nine?

18Se etranje sa a sèlman ki chonje pou l' vin fè lwanj Bondye?Was no one found except this foreigner to return and give glory to God?”

19Epi li di li: Leve non. Ou mèt ale. Se konfyans ou nan Bondye ki geri ou.Then Jesus said to him, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well!”

20Farizyen yo mande Jezi kilè Bondye t'ap vin tabli gouvènman l' lan. Li reponn yo: Bondye ap vin tabli gouvènman l' lan yon jan pou tout moun wè li.When asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The kingdom of God will not come with observable signs.

21Men, yo p'ap di: Men l' bò isit, osinon: Men l' bò laba. Paske, konnen sa byen, gouvenman Bondye a la nan mitan nou.Nor will people say, ‘Look, here it is,’ or ‘There it is.’ For you see, the kingdom of God is in your midst.”

22Epi li di disip yo: Gen yon lè nou va anvi wè yonn nan jou ki pou Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a, men nou p'ap wè sa.Then He said to the disciples, “The time is coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it.

23Y'a di nou: Gade, men l' bò isit, osinon: Gade, men l' bò laba. Pa ale, pa kouri dèyè yo.People will tell you, ‘Look, there He is!’ or ‘Look, here He is!’ Do not go out or chase after them.

24Lè yon kout zèklè fè yan, li klere syèl la byen klere depi yon bout jouk nan lòt bout la, pa vre. Se va menm jan an tou pou Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a, lè jou l' va rive.For just as the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one end to the other, so will be the Son of Man in His day.

25Men, anvan sa, li gen pou l' soufri anpil, moun alèkile yo p'ap vle wè li.But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.

26Sa ki te rive nan tan Noe a se sa k'ap rive tou lè jou a va rive pou Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a vini.Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man:

27Moun t'ap manje, yo t'ap bwè, moun t'ap marye, yo t'ap marye pitit fi yo; se konsa tout bagay te ye, jouk jou Noe te antre nan gwo batiman an. Lè inondasyon an fèt, li touye yo tout.People were eating and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.

28Sa ki te rive nan tan Lòt la va rive menm jan an tou. Moun t'ap manje, yo t'ap bwè, yo t'ap achte, yo t'ap plante, yo t'ap bati.It was the same in the days of Lot: People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building.

29Men, jou Lòt soti kite lavil Sodòm lan, dife souf grennen sot nan syèl la tankou lapli, tonbe sou yo; yo tout peri.But on the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

30Se va menm jan an tou lè jou a va rive pou Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a parèt.It will be just like that on the day the Son of Man is revealed.

31Jou sa a, moun ki va sou tèt kay p'ap bezwen desann anndan kay la ale pran zafè li. Moun ki nan jaden p'ap bezwen tounen lakay ankò.On that day, let no one on the housetop come down to retrieve his possessions. Likewise, let no one in the field return for anything he has left behind.

32Chonje istwa madanm Lòt la.Remember Lot’s wife!

33Moun ki va chache sove lavi l' va pèdi l'; men moun ki va pèdi lavi l' va konsève li.Whoever tries to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life will preserve it.

34M'ap di nou sa: Jou lannwit sa a, va gen de moun sou yon menm kabann; y'ap pran yonn, y'ap kite lòt la.I tell you, on that night two people will be in one bed: one will be taken and the other left.

35Va gen de fanm k'ap pile grenn ansanm: y'ap pran yonn, y'ap kite lòt la.Two women will be grinding grain together: one will be taken and the other left.”

36Va gen dezòm nan yon menm jaden; y'ap pran yonn, y'ap kite lòt la.Not in the BSB

37Disip yo pran lapawòl, yo mande l' konsa: Ki kote sa pral fèt, Mèt? Li reponn yo: Kote kadav la va ye, se la votou yo va sanble.“Where, Lord?” they asked. Jesus answered, “Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.”
