Mark 2 (HAT) · Opened

1Kèk jou apre sa, Jezi tounen Kapènawòm. Yo tande li te lakay li.A few days later Jesus went back to Capernaum. And when the people heard that He was home,

2Te sitèlman gen moun ki te sanble, pa t' gen plas ankò, pa menm devan pòt kay la. Jezi menm t'ap anonse yo pawòl la.they gathered in such large numbers that there was no more room, not even outside the door, as Jesus spoke the word to them.

3Se lè sa a, yon kolonn moun vin rive, kat ladan yo t'ap pote yon nonm paralize. Yo t'ap mennen l' bay Jezi.Then a paralytic was brought to Him, carried by four men.

4Men, foul la te kwense anpil, kifè moun yo pa t' ka pwoche bò kot Jezi. Lè yo wè sa, yo dekouvri do kay la egzakteman sou tèt Jezi. Epi yo file nonm paralize a desann nan twou a, tou kouche sou nat li a.Since they were unable to get to Jesus through the crowd, they uncovered the roof above Him, made an opening, and lowered the paralytic on his mat.

5Jezi wè jan yo te gen konfyans nan li, li di nonm paralize a: -Pitit mwen, peche ou yo padonnen.When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven.”

6Te gen kèk dirèktè lalwa chita la; yo t'ap di nan kè yo:But some of the scribes were sitting there and thinking in their hearts,

7-Pouki nonm sa a pale mal sou Bondye konsa? Ki moun sou latè ki kapab padonnen peche? Sa se travay Bondye sèlman.“Why does this man speak like this? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

8Menm lè a Jezi te gen tan konnen nan fon kè l' sak t'ap pase nan tèt yo. Li di yo: -Poukisa n'ap fè lide konsa nan kè nou?At once Jesus knew in His spirit that they were thinking this way within themselves. “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?” He asked.

9Kisak pi fasil pou m' di nonm paralize a: Peche ou yo padonnen; osinon: Leve kanpe, pran nat ou, mache?“Which is easier: to say to a paralytic, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, pick up your mat, and walk’?

10Enben, m'ap fè nou konnen, mwen menm, Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a, mwen gen pouvwa sou latè pou m' padonnen peche. Lè sa a, Jezi di nonm paralize a:But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins...” He said to the paralytic,

11-Mwen di ou: leve kanpe, pran nat ou, ale lakay ou.“I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”

12Latou, nonm lan leve kanpe, li pran nat li, li soti devan tout moun. Yo tout te sezi, yo fè lwanj Bondye; yo t'ap di: -Nou poko janm wè bagay konsa.And immediately the man got up, picked up his mat, and walked out in front of them all. As a result, they were all astounded and glorified God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”

13Jezi tounen ankò bò lanmè Galile a. Yon foul moun te vin jwenn li, epi li t'ap moutre yo anpil bagay.Once again Jesus went out beside the sea. All the people came to Him, and He taught them there.

14Antan Jezi t'ap pase konsa, li wè Levi, pitit Alfe a, chita nan biwo kontribisyon an. Jezi di l' konsa: -Swiv mwen. Levi annik leve, li swiv Jezi.As He was walking along, He saw Levi son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him, and Levi got up and followed Him.

15Pita, Jezi t'ap manje lakay Levi. Te gen anpil lòt pèseptè kontribisyon ak moun k'ap fè sa ki mal ki t'ap swiv Jezi. Tout moun sa yo te chita bò tab avè l' ansanm ak disip li yo.While Jesus was dining at Levi’s house, many tax collectors and sinners were eating with Him and His disciples—for there were many who followed Him.

16Kèk direktè lalwa ki te fè pati bann farizyen yo wè Jezi ap manje ak pèseptè kontribisyon yo ansanm ak moun k'ap fè sa ki mal yo. Yo mande disip li yo: -Poukisa l'ap manje ak pèseptè kontribisyon ansanm ak moun k'ap fè sa ki mal yo?When the scribes who were Pharisees saw Jesus eating with these people, they asked His disciples, “Why does He eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

17Jezi tande sa, li di yo konsa: -Lè yon moun an sante, li pa bezwen dòktè. Se moun malad ki bezwen dòktè. Enben, mwen pa vin rele moun k'ap mache dwat devan Bondye yo, men moun k'ap fè sa ki mal yo.On hearing this, Jesus told them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”

18Yon jou, patizan Jan Batis yo t'ap fè jèn ansanm ak farizyen yo. Gen moun ki vin di Jezi konsa: -Poukisa patizan Jan Batis yo avèk disip farizyen yo fè jèn, epi disip pa ou yo pa fè jèn?Now John’s disciples and the Pharisees were often fasting. So people came to Jesus and asked, “Why don’t Your disciples fast like John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees?”

19Jezi reponn yo: -Eske zanmi yon nonm k'ap marye kapab rete san manje toutotan li la avèk yo? Non, toutotan nonm k'ap marye a la avèk yo, yo pa kapab rete san manje.Jesus replied, “How can the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them? As long as He is with them, they cannot fast.

20Men, lè lè a va rive pou l' pa nan mitan yo ankò, se lè sa a y'a fè jèn.But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.

21Pesonn pa pyese yon vye rad ak yon moso twal nèf. Si ou fè sa, moso nèf la va pati ak yon bò nan vye rad la. Lè sa a, rad la chire pi mal.No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. If he does, the new piece will pull away from the old, and a worse tear will result.

22Konsa tou, pesonn pa mete diven ki fenk fèt nan vye veso an po. Si ou fè sa, diven an va pete vye veso yo, epi w'ap pèdi ni diven an ni veso yo. Men, diven ki fenk fèt, sa dwe ale nan veso an po ki fenk fèt tou.And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.”

23Yon jou repo, Jezi t'ap pase nan yon jaden ble. Antan disip li yo t'ap mache konsa avè l', yo pran keyi kèk grap ble.One Sabbath Jesus was passing through the grainfields, and His disciples began to pick the heads of grain as they walked along.

24Farizyen yo di li konsa: -Gade non! Poukisa disip ou yo ap fè bagay lalwa nou pa pèmèt moun fè gwo jou repo a?So the Pharisees said to Him, “Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?”

25Jezi reponn yo: -Eske nou pa janm li sa David te fè yon lè li te bezwen manje pou li menm ak pou moun pa l' yo ki te grangou?Jesus replied, “Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need?

26Sa te pase sou tan Abyata te granprèt. Nou chonje? Li antre nan kay Bondye a, li manje nan pen yo te ofri bay Bondye a. Dapre lalwa nou an, se prèt yo sèlman ki gen dwa manje pen sa yo. Malgre sa, David te pran ladan yo, li te bay moun pa l' yo manje tou.During the high priesthood of Abiathar, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which was lawful only for the priests. And he gave some to his companions as well.”

27Jezi di yo ankò: -Jou repo a te fèt pou moun; se pa moun ki te fèt pou jou repo a.Then Jesus declared, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.

28Konsa tou, mwen menm, Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a, mwen se mèt repo a.Therefore, the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
