2 Corinthians 11
1 O that ye tolerated a little of my foolishness, but tolerate me too.
Mwen swete ke nou ta ban mwen pèmisyon pou yon ti foli; men anfèt nou ban mwen l deja.
2 For I am jealous for you with a jealousy of God. For I betrothed you to one husband, a pure virgin to present to the Christ.
Paske mwen jalou pou nou avèk yon jalouzi ki sòti nan Bondye. Paske mwen te fyanse nou ak yon mari, pou m ta kapab prezante nou a Kris kòm yon vyèj ki san tach.
3 But I fear lest somehow, as the serpent enticed Eve by his craftiness, so your thoughts might be corrupted from the simplicity in the Christ.
Men mwen pè pou menm jan ke Eve te twonpe pa riz sèpan an, pou panse nou ta de yon fason oubyen yon lòt detounen de devosyon sensè e san tach de Kris la.
4 For indeed if a man who comes, preaches another Jesus whom we did not preach, or ye receive another spirit that ye did not receive, or another good news that ye did not accept, ye well tolerated it.
Paske si yon moun vini pou preche yon lòt Jésus, ke nou menm pa t preche, oswa nou resevwa yon lòt lespri ke nou pa t resevwa, oswa yon lòt levanjil ke nou pa t aksepte, nou ase tolere sa.
5 For I reckon to come short in nothing of those, superlative apostles.
Paske mwen pa konsidere tèt mwen kòm enferyè a pi gran apot yo.
6 But even if I am unskilled in speech, yet not in knowledge, but in everything made known in all things to you.
Men menmsi mwen manke abil nan pale, deja mwen pa konsa nan konesans. Anfèt, nan tout aspè, sa te deja fèt klè de nou tout, nan tout bagay.
7 Or did I commit a sin lowering myself so that ye might be lifted up, because I preached to you the good news of God freely?
Oubyen èske mwen te fè yon peche lè m te aksepte imilye tèt mwen pou nou menm ta kapab egzalte, paske m te preche levanjil Bondye a nou menm san frè?
8 I robbed other congregations, having taken a wage in order for your service.
Okontrè, mwen te vòlè lòt legliz yo lè m te pran kòb soutyen lan nan men yo pou sèvi nou.
9 And being present with you, and when needy, I was a burden to no man. For the brothers who came from Macedonia, they supplied my need. And in everything I kept and I will keep myself non-burdensome to you.
Lè m te prezan avèk nou nan nesesite, mwen pa t devni yon chaj pou okenn moun; paske lè frè yo te vini sòti Macédoine, yo te satisfè tout bezwen m yo, e nan tout bagay mwen te kenbe tèt mwen pou mwen pa t vin yon chaj pou nou menm, e m va kontinye fè menm bagay la.
10 The truth of Christ is in me that this pride in me will not be stopped in the regions of Achaia.
Jan verite Kris la nan mwen an vante tèt mwen an p ap tèmine fèt nan zòn Achaïe yo.
11 Why? Because I do not love you? God knows.
Poukisa? Paske mwen pa renmen nou? Bondye konnen ke m renmen nou!
12 But what I do, I also will do, so that I may cut off the opportunity of those who desire an opportunity, that in what they boast, they might appear just as we also.
Men m ap kontinye fè sa ke m ap fè a pou m kapab rachte okazyon de sila yo ki vle twouve yon okazyon pou moun konsidere yo egal avèk nou nan bagay ke y ap vante tèt yo.
13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves into apostles of Christ.
Paske moun konsa yo se fo apot yo ye, ouvriye twonpè k ap degize tèt yo tankou apot a Kris yo.
14 And no marvel, for even Satan disguises himself into an agent of light.
Sa pa yon gwo sipriz, paske menm Satan degize tèt li tankou yon zanj limyè.
15 Therefore, it is no great thing if his helpers also disguise themselves as helpers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.
Konsa, se pa yon sipriz si sèvitè li yo degize tèt yo tankou sèvitè ladwati Bondye yo, ki va tèmine menm jan kon pwòp zèv pa yo.
16 I say again, let not any man think me to be foolish, but if otherwise-even if as foolish-accept me, so that I also may boast some a little.
Ankò mwen di, ke pèsòn pa panse ke mwen fou. Men si nou panse sa, resevwa m menm tankou moun fou, pou mwen tou kapab vante tèt mwen tou piti.
17 What I speak, I speak not according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of the boast.
Sa m ap di a, mwen p ap di li jan Senyè a ta pale, men yon jan fou, konsi, m ap vante tèt mwen an.
18 Since many boast according to the flesh, I too will boast.
Akoz ke anpil moun vante tèt yo selon lachè, mwen va vante tèt mwen konsa tou.
19 For being wise, ye gladly tolerate the foolish.
Men nou menm ki tèlman saj, tolere foli a avèk kè kontan.
20 For ye tolerate it if some man enslaves you, if some man devours you, if some man seizes you, if some man lifts himself up, if some man strikes you on the face.
Paske nou tolere li si yon moun fè nou esklav, si yon moun devore nou, si yon moun pran avantaj de nou, si yon moun egzalte tèt li, menm si yon moun bannou kou nan figi.
21 I speak as from shame, that we were so weak. Yet in whatever any man may be bold in foolishness, I say I too am bold.
Nan wont mwen, mwen oblije di ke nou te twò fèb pa konparezon. Men nan nenpòt bagay respekte nenpòt lòt moun se plen ak kouraj (mwen pale ak foli), mwen menm, mwen gen kouraj menm jan an.
22 Are they Hebrews? I too. Are they Israelites? I too. Are they a seed of Abraham? I too.
Èske se Ebre yo ye? Mwen menm tou, mwen Ebre. Èske se Izrayelit yo ye? Mwen menm tou, mwen se Izrayelit. Èske se desandan Abraham yo ye? Mwen menm tou.
23 Are they helpers of Christ? (I speak as being mad) I more: in toils, more abundantly; in stripes, countless; in prisons, more frequently; in deaths often.
Èske se sèvitè a Kris yo ye? (Mwen pale tankou moun fou) Mwen menm tou, plis nan travay, bokou plis nan pran prizon. Mwen te bat depase mezi, mwen te souvan nan danje lanmò.
24 From the Jews five times I received forty save one.
Senk fwa mwen te resevwa nan men Jwif yo trant-nèf kout fwèt.
25 Thrice I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, thrice I was shipwrecked, I have done a night and a day in the depth,
Twa fwa mwen te bat avèk baton, yon fwa mwen te lapide avèk wòch, twa fwa mwen te nan bato ki kraze nan lanmè, yon jou ak yon nwit mwen te pase nan fon lanmè.
26 in frequent journeys, in perils of flowing waters, in perils of bandits, in perils from my race, in perils from Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils at sea, in perils among false brothers,
Souvan mwen te fè vwayaj, an danje nan rivyè, danje ak vòlè, danje ak pwòp moun peyi mwen, danje ak moun etranje yo danje nan vil yo, danje nan dezè, danje sou lanmè, e danje pami fo frè yo.
27 in toil and hardship, in frequent sleeplessness, in hunger and thirst, in frequent fasts, in cold and nakedness.
Mwen te nan travay, nan sikonstans difisil, nan anpil nwit san dòmi, nan grangou ak swaf, souvan san manje, nan fredi e san rad.
28 Besides the external things, crowding upon me daily is the care of all the congregations.
Apa kondisyon ekstèn sa yo, gen fòs opresyon chak jou sou mwen pou sousi mwen gen pou tout legliz yo.
29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I am not made fiery?
Kilès ki vin fèb, san m pa fèb tou? Kilès ki lage nan peche, san gwo sousi mwen.
30 If it is necessary to boast, I will boast of the things of my weakness.
Si mwen dwe vante tèt mwen, m ap vante tèt mwen de sa ki apatyen a feblès mwen.
31 The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, he who is blessed into the ages, knows that I do not lie. (aiōn g165)
Bondye e Papa a Senyè a Jésus Li menm ki beni pou tout tan an, konnen ke m p ap bay manti. (aiōn g165)
32 In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king guarded the city of the Damascenes wanting to apprehend me.
Nan Damas gouvènè anba Arétas, wa a t ap veye vil moun Damas yo pou l te kapab sezi mwen.
33 And I was lowered in a hamper through a window through the wall, and escaped his hands.
Se konsa mwen te kite lòt moun desann mwen nan yon panyen pa fenèt nan mi an, e se konsa m te chape nan men li.
