Nouvo Testaman: Vèsyon Kreyòl Fasil
Jezi voye apot li yo al nan yon misyon
1 Chè Teofil,
Anpil lòt moun te gentan eseye ekri plizyè dokiman sou tout sa k te pase nan mitan nou konsènan Jezikris. 2 Yo rapòte nan dokiman sa yo tout temwanyaj ki soti nan bouch moun ki te temwen sa k te pase yo, epi ki vin tounen predikatè pawòl Bondye. 3 Mwen menm tou, m kwè li nòmal, poutèt mwen gentan fè yon bonjan rechèch sou bagay sa yo depi nan kòmansman, pou m ekri yon rapò byen detaye pou ou tou. 4 Mwen deside fè sa pou w ka rive kwè sa yo te anseye w yo se verite a.
Yon anj Bondye vin anonse nesans Janbatis
5 Nan epòk wa Ewòd t ap renye sou rejyon Jide a, te gen yon sakrifikatè yo te rele Zakari. Li te fè pati yon gwoup sakrifikatè Abija[a] t ap dirije. Madanm Zakari ki te rele Elizabèt te soti nan branch fanmi Aawon, frè Moyiz la. 6 Tou de moun sa yo te mennen lavi yo byen dwat devan Bondye, epi yo te obeyi tout kòmandman Bondye yo. 7 Yo pa t gen pitit, paske Elizabèt pa t ka fè pitit, epi yo te gentan granmoun anpil.
8 Lè lè a te rive pou gwoup Abija a te pran relèv pou sèvi nan tanp lan, Zakari te la pou ranpli wòl sakrifikatè li devan Bondye. 9 Sakrifikatè yo te fè tiraj osò tankou jan yo te toujou fè dapre koutim yo, epi yo te chwazi Zakari pou l te antre nan tanp Senyè a pou l al boule lansan an. 10 Pandan Zakari t ap boule lansan an anndan an, te gen yon gwo foul moun ki te rasanble deyò a ap lapriyè.
11 Sanzatann konsa, yon anj Senyè a parèt sou Zakari. Zanj lan te kanpe sou bò dwat lotèl pou boule lansan an. 12 Lè Zakari wè anj lan, sa te twouble lespri li epi li te pè anpil. 13 Lè sa a, anj lan di li: Zakari, ou pa bezwen pè, paske Bondye tande priyè w, epi madanm ou Elizabèt pral fè yon pitit gason. Ou a rele ti gason sa a Jan. 14 Ou pral gen lajwa ak kontantman nan kè w. Anpil lòt moun pral rejwi nan kè yo tou poutèt nesans li. 15 Paske ti pitit la pral vin yon moun espesyal nan je Senyè a. Li pa fèt pou l bwè ni diven ni okenn bwason ki gen alkòl. Epi l ap ranpli ak Sentespri Bondye depi nan vant manman l.
16 Se Jan ki pral ede anpil moun nan pèp Izrayèl la tounen vin jwenn Bondye, Senyè yo a. 17 Li pral mache kòm avangad devan Senyè a, pou l prepare kè yo pou resevwa Senyè a. L ap gen menm lespri ak pwofèt Eli. L ap ede paran yo fè lapè ak pitit yo. L ap ede moun ki dezobeyisan yo mennen yon vi konfòm ak volonte Bondye poutèt jan yo panse. L ap fè tout bagay sa yo pou l ka prepare kè moun yo pou yo rankontre Senyè a.
18 Lè sa a, Zakari di anj lan konsa: “kijan m ap fè konnen si sa w di m nan se vre? Paske m se yon vye granmoun epi madanm mwen se yon vye granmoun tou.”
19 Zanj lan reponn li: “Mwen rele Gabriyèl, se nan prezans Senyè a menm mwen kanpe. Senyè a te voye m vin pale ak ou pou m te ka ba w bòn nouvèl sa a. 20 Men, fòk mwen di w sa tou wi, ou pral bèbè. Ou p ap ka pale jouk tan sa m sot di w la rive, poutèt ou pa t kwè nan pawòl mwen ki gen pou akonpli nan tan ki fikse pou li a.”
21 Moun yo menm ki te deyò a ap tann Zakari, yo te kòmanse kraponnen poutèt Zakari te pran tout tan sa a anndan tanp lan. 22 Lè Zakari te vin soti, li pa t kapab pale ak foul la. Lè sa a, yo vin reyalize li te resevwa yon vizyon anndan an. Se an siy sèlman li t ap kominike ak yo paske li te bèbè. 23 Lè peryòd li te desèvis la te vin fin i, Zakari te retounen lakay li.
24 Kèk tan apre sa, Elizabèt madanm Zakari vin ansent. Li fè senk mwa kache anndan kay. Elizabèt di konsa: 25 “Finalman, Senyè a chwazi ede m nan fason sa a. Li sitèlman panche sou ka mwen, li leve kalite wont sa a pou mwen devan je pèp la.”
Yon anj vin anonse nesans Jezi
26 Lè Elizabèt te gen simwa ansent, Bondye voye yon anj ki rele Gabriyèl vin nan yon ti vil ki rele Nazarèt, nan zòn Galile. 27 Zanj lan te vin pale ak yon jèn fi ki pa t ko nan lavi gason ki te rete lavil Nazarèt. Jèn fi sa a te fiyanse ak yon jèn gason yo te rele Jozèf ki li menm te soti nan branch fanmi David. Yo te rele jèn fi sa a Mari. 28 Zanj lan avanse sou Mari epi li di l: “Bonjou! Senyè a avèk ou. Ou se yon moun Bondye beni anpil.”
29 Men, sa anj lan te di a te twouble Mari anpil. Li t ap mande tèt li kisa sa vle di.
30 Epi anj lan di li: “Ou pa bezwen pè, Mari. Ou se yon moun Senyè a fè gras. 31 Tande byen, ou gen pou ou vin ansent epi ou ap fè yon pitit gason. Ou a rele pitit gason sa a Jezi. 32 L ap vin yon moun ki gran. Y a rele l Pitit Bondye ki pi wo nan syèl la. Senyè a ap fè l vin wa tankou David gran gran papa li. 33 L ap renye sou pèp Izrayèl la pou tout tan. Pouvwa li p ap janm fin i.”
34 Lè sa a, Mari di anj lan konsa: “Ki jan sa ka fè rive? Mwen se yon moun ki pa ko nan lavi gason.”
35 Zanj lan reponn li: “Sentespri a pral vini sou ou, epi pouvwa Bondye ki pi wo nan syèl la pral kouvri w. Se poutèt sa, pitit ou pral fè a ap sen. Y ap rele l Pitit Bondye. 36 Epi fòk mwen di w sa tou, fanmi ou, Elizabèt, ansent kounye a la a. Malgre li fin granmoun, li pral fè yon pitit gason. Yo te di li pa t kapab fè pitit, epoutan gen simwa la a depi li ansent. 37 Sa rive konsa, paske pa gen anyen ki enposib pou Bondye.”
38 Mari di li: “Se sèvant Senyè a mwen ye. Se pou sa rive m jan ou di a.” Apre sa, Zanj lan ale.
Mari al rann Zakari ak Elizabèt yon vizit
39 Nan menm epòk la, Mari leve, san pèdi tan, li ale nan yon ti vil nan mòn Jide. 40 Mari antre lakay Zakari epi li salye Elizabèt. 41 Menm kote Elizabèt fin tande salitasyon Mari a, pitit ki nan vant Elizabèt la pran sote nan vant li epi Sentespri a ranpli Elizabèt.
42 Li pale byen fò epi li di Mari konsa: “Bondye beni ou pami tout fi, li beni pitit ou ap fè a tou. 43 Ki sa m ye menm, pou manman Senyè m nan vin lakay mwen? 44 Paske menm kote salitasyon ou nan rive nan zòrèy mwen, pitit la pran danse nan vant mwen, tèlman li kontan. 45 Ou se yon moun ki beni, paske ou te kwè sa Senyè a te di w la gen pou rive vre.”
Mari fè lwanj pou Senyè
46 Apre sa Mari di:
“Nanm mwen beni non Bondye.
47 Lespri m rejwi nan Bondye sovè mwen.
48 Malgre mwen pa gen enpòtans,
Senyè a manifeste favè li anvè mwen, pòv sèvant li a.
Depi kounye a pou jouktan sa fin i,
tout moun ap sonje kijan Bondye beni m anpil.
49 Wi, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a fè anpil gwo bagay pou mwen.
Non li sen anpil.
50 Li toujou gen konpasyon
pou moun ki gen krentif pou li.
51 Li manifeste pouvwa li nan sa li fè ak men li.
Moun ki ògeye yo epi ki panse se yon pakèt afè yo ye, li fè yo wont.
52 Li ranvèse wa yo sou twòn yo
epi li leve tèt moun ki bese byen ba devan li.
53 Li bay moun ki grangou yo manje pou plen vant yo,
men li voye moun rich yo ale san anyen.
54 Bondye ede Izrayèl pèp li chwazi pou sèvi l la.
Li pa t janm bliye mizerikòd li.
55 Jan li te di zansèt nou yo,
Abraram ansanm ak desandan l yo,
li t ap fè l la, pou tout tan gen tan.”
56 Mari pase anviwon twa mwa lakay Elizabèt, apre sa li tounen lakay li.
Nesans Janbatis
57 Lè lè a te rive pou Elizabèt akouche, li fè yon pitit gason. 58 Lè vwazen l yo ak fanmi l yo pran nouvèl kijan Bondye te manifeste bonte li anvè Elizabèt, sa te fè yo kontan anpil pou li. 59 Lè ti bebe a te gen uit jou, yo te ale pou sikonsi li. Yo te vle rele l Zakari tou pou te leve non papa l. 60 Men, manman l te di: “Non, se Jan pou l rele.”
61 Moun ki te la yo di Elizabèt konsa: “Men, pa gen pèsonn nan fanmi w ki rele Jan.” 62 Lè sa a, yo pale an siy ak papa a, yo mande l: “Ki jan ou ta renmen rele pitit la?”
63 Zakari mande pou yo ba li yon bagay pou l ekri. Epi li ekri, “Non li se jan.” Tout moun te sezi. 64 Apre sa, Zakari te vin ka pale ankò, epi li te kòmanse fè lwanj pou Bondye. 65 Tout moun nan vwazinay la te vin pè pou sa k pase a. Epi nan tout mòn Jide a moun pa t sispann pale koze a. 66 Tout moun ki te pran nouvèl sa k pase a t ap poze tèt yo anpil kesyon. Yo t ap mande tèt yo: “Ki sa ti gason sa a ap devni menm?” Yo te ka wè pouvwa Senyè a te avèk ti gason an.
Zakari fè lwanj pou Bondye
67 Apre sa, Sentespri a te ranpli Zakari, papa Jan, epi li te kòmanse ap bay pèp la yon mesaj ki soti nan Bondye ki di konsa:
68 “Lwanj pou Senyè a, Bondye Izrayèl la.
Li vin pote konkou bay pèp li a,
li vin libere yo.
69 Li ban nou yon Sovè ki gen anpil puisans
ki soti nan branch fanmi sèvitè li David.
70 Se sa menm li te pwomèt
pa mwayen pwofèt li yo depi nan tan lontan.
71 Li te pwomèt pou l delivre nou anba lènmi nou yo
anba grif tout moun ki rayi nou yo.
72 Li te di li t ap manifeste konpasyon li anvè gran paran nou yo,
epi li t ap toujou sonje alyans san defo li te fè ak yo a.
73 Se sa menm li te pwomèt
gran papa nou Abraram,
74 yon pwomès pou l delivre nou anba puisans lènmi nou yo,
pou nou kapab sèvi li san kè sote,
75 nan sentete ak nan yon fason ki kòrèk
devan je li toutotan n ap viv.
76 Kanta pou ou menm, ti gason,
y a rele w pwofèt Bondye ki pi wo nan syèl la.
Ou ap gen pou pran devan Senyè a pou prepare chemen an pou li.
77 Ou ap fè pèp li a konnen y ap jwenn delivrans
nan resevwa padon pou peche yo.
78 Paske Bondye gen kè sansib,
l ap fè yon limyè[b] soti anwo vin klere nou tankou solèy k ap leve.
79 L ap klere sa yo k ap viv nan fènwa epi ki chita anba lonbray lanmò.
L ap gide nou nan chemen lapè a.”
80 Ti gason an menm t ap grandi epi li te byen devlope nan lespri l. Li te rete nan dezè a jouktan lè a te rive pou l parèt an piblik pou l preche mesaj Bondye a devan pèp Izrayèl la.
Luke 1
New International Version
Introduction(A)
1 Many have undertaken to draw up an account of the things that have been fulfilled[a] among us, 2 just as they were handed down to us by those who from the first(B) were eyewitnesses(C) and servants of the word.(D) 3 With this in mind, since I myself have carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I too decided to write an orderly account(E) for you, most excellent(F) Theophilus,(G) 4 so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.(H)
The Birth of John the Baptist Foretold
5 In the time of Herod king of Judea(I) there was a priest named Zechariah, who belonged to the priestly division of Abijah;(J) his wife Elizabeth was also a descendant of Aaron. 6 Both of them were righteous in the sight of God, observing all the Lord’s commands and decrees blamelessly.(K) 7 But they were childless because Elizabeth was not able to conceive, and they were both very old.
8 Once when Zechariah’s division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God,(L) 9 he was chosen by lot,(M) according to the custom of the priesthood, to go into the temple of the Lord and burn incense.(N) 10 And when the time for the burning of incense came, all the assembled worshipers were praying outside.(O)
11 Then an angel(P) of the Lord appeared to him, standing at the right side of the altar of incense.(Q) 12 When Zechariah saw him, he was startled and was gripped with fear.(R) 13 But the angel said to him: “Do not be afraid,(S) Zechariah; your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to call him John.(T) 14 He will be a joy and delight to you, and many will rejoice because of his birth,(U) 15 for he will be great in the sight of the Lord. He is never to take wine or other fermented drink,(V) and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit(W) even before he is born.(X) 16 He will bring back many of the people of Israel to the Lord their God. 17 And he will go on before the Lord,(Y) in the spirit and power of Elijah,(Z) to turn the hearts of the parents to their children(AA) and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous—to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”(AB)
18 Zechariah asked the angel, “How can I be sure of this?(AC) I am an old man and my wife is well along in years.”(AD)
19 The angel said to him, “I am Gabriel.(AE) I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to tell you this good news. 20 And now you will be silent and not able to speak(AF) until the day this happens, because you did not believe my words, which will come true at their appointed time.”
21 Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah and wondering why he stayed so long in the temple. 22 When he came out, he could not speak to them. They realized he had seen a vision in the temple, for he kept making signs(AG) to them but remained unable to speak.
23 When his time of service was completed, he returned home. 24 After this his wife Elizabeth became pregnant and for five months remained in seclusion. 25 “The Lord has done this for me,” she said. “In these days he has shown his favor and taken away my disgrace(AH) among the people.”
The Birth of Jesus Foretold
26 In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel(AI) to Nazareth,(AJ) a town in Galilee, 27 to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph,(AK) a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. 28 The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”
29 Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. 30 But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid,(AL) Mary; you have found favor with God.(AM) 31 You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.(AN) 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High.(AO) The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David,(AP) 33 and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom(AQ) will never end.”(AR)
34 “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”
35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you,(AS) and the power of the Most High(AT) will overshadow you. So the holy one(AU) to be born will be called[b] the Son of God.(AV) 36 Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child(AW) in her old age, and she who was said to be unable to conceive is in her sixth month. 37 For no word from God will ever fail.”(AX)
38 “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her.
Mary Visits Elizabeth
39 At that time Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judea,(AY) 40 where she entered Zechariah’s home and greeted Elizabeth. 41 When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.(AZ) 42 In a loud voice she exclaimed: “Blessed are you among women,(BA) and blessed is the child you will bear! 43 But why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord(BB) should come to me? 44 As soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy. 45 Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!”
Mary’s Song(BC)
46 And Mary said:
“My soul glorifies the Lord(BD)
47 and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,(BE)
48 for he has been mindful
of the humble state of his servant.(BF)
From now on all generations will call me blessed,(BG)
49 for the Mighty One has done great things(BH) for me—
holy is his name.(BI)
50 His mercy extends to those who fear him,
from generation to generation.(BJ)
51 He has performed mighty deeds with his arm;(BK)
he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts.(BL)
52 He has brought down rulers from their thrones
but has lifted up the humble.(BM)
53 He has filled the hungry with good things(BN)
but has sent the rich away empty.
54 He has helped his servant Israel,
remembering to be merciful(BO)
55 to Abraham and his descendants(BP) forever,
just as he promised our ancestors.”
56 Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home.
The Birth of John the Baptist
57 When it was time for Elizabeth to have her baby, she gave birth to a son. 58 Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy, and they shared her joy.
59 On the eighth day they came to circumcise(BQ) the child, and they were going to name him after his father Zechariah, 60 but his mother spoke up and said, “No! He is to be called John.”(BR)
61 They said to her, “There is no one among your relatives who has that name.”
62 Then they made signs(BS) to his father, to find out what he would like to name the child. 63 He asked for a writing tablet, and to everyone’s astonishment he wrote, “His name is John.”(BT) 64 Immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue set free, and he began to speak,(BU) praising God. 65 All the neighbors were filled with awe, and throughout the hill country of Judea(BV) people were talking about all these things. 66 Everyone who heard this wondered about it, asking, “What then is this child going to be?” For the Lord’s hand was with him.(BW)
Zechariah’s Song
67 His father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit(BX) and prophesied:(BY)
68 “Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel,(BZ)
because he has come to his people and redeemed them.(CA)
69 He has raised up a horn[c](CB) of salvation for us
in the house of his servant David(CC)
70 (as he said through his holy prophets of long ago),(CD)
71 salvation from our enemies
and from the hand of all who hate us—
72 to show mercy to our ancestors(CE)
and to remember his holy covenant,(CF)
73 the oath he swore to our father Abraham:(CG)
74 to rescue us from the hand of our enemies,
and to enable us to serve him(CH) without fear(CI)
75 in holiness and righteousness(CJ) before him all our days.
76 And you, my child, will be called a prophet(CK) of the Most High;(CL)
for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,(CM)
77 to give his people the knowledge of salvation
through the forgiveness of their sins,(CN)
78 because of the tender mercy of our God,
by which the rising sun(CO) will come to us from heaven
79 to shine on those living in darkness
and in the shadow of death,(CP)
to guide our feet into the path of peace.”(CQ)
80 And the child grew and became strong in spirit[d];(CR) and he lived in the wilderness until he appeared publicly to Israel.
