2 Corinthians 13
1 This third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two witnesses or three every saying will be confirmed.
M'ap vin lakay nou pou yon twazyèm fwa. Lè sa a, jan sa ekri nan Liv la, tout bagay va regle sou depozisyon de osinon twa temwen.
2 I have told you before, and I say in advance, as present the second time, and now absent, I write to those who have previously sinned, and to all the others, that if I come to it again, I will not spare,
M'ap avèti nou tout ki te fè peche anvan sa, ansanm ak tout lòt yo. Mwen te deja di nou sa lè m' te vin lakay nou dezyèm fwa a. Koulye a mwen pa la, m'ap repete l' ankò: pwochenn fwa m'ap tounen lakay nou, mwen p'ap mennaje pesonn.
3 since ye seek proof of the Christ speaking in me, who is not weak toward you, but is mighty in you.
Nou bezwen prèv se Kris la k'ap pale lè m'ap pale, enben n'a jwenn li. Kris la pa fèb non lè l'ap regle ak nou. Okontrè, l'ap fè nou wè pouvwa li.
4 For even if he was crucified from weakness, yet he lives from the power of God. For we in him are also weak, but we will live with him from the power of God toward you.
Wi, se vre: yo te kloure l' sou yon kwa paske li te fèb. Men koulye a, li vivan gremesi pouvwa Bondye a. Mwen menm tou, mwen fèb ansanm ak Kris la. Men, lè m'ap regle avèk nou, mwen vivan ansanm avè l' tou, gremesi pouvwa Bondye a.
5 Examine yourselves whether ye are in the faith. Test yourselves. Or know ye not yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you? Unless ye are test-failing something.
Sonde tèt nou nou menm, egzaminen konsyans nou byen pou wè si n'ap viv ak konfyans nan Bondye. Nou fèt pou nou rekonèt si Jezikri nan kè nou, esepte si nou pa ta kapab bay prèv nou gen konfyans nan Bondye.
6 But I hope that ye will know that we are not test-failing.
Men, mwen kwè n'a rekonèt sa tou: mwen menm, mwen kapab bay prèv mwen gen konfyans nan Bondye.
7 Now I pray to God, to do you nothing harmful, not that we would appear test-passing, but that ye would do right, even like we might be test-failing.
M'ap lapriyè Bondye pou nou pa fè anyen ki mal. Lè m' fè sa, mwen pa fè l' nan lide pou m' moutre sa m' kapab fè. Men, mwen ta renmen wè nou fè sa ki byen, menm si mwen pase pou moun ki pa kapab fè anyen.
8 For we do not have any power against the truth, but for the truth.
Nou pa ka fè anyen ki kont verite Bondye a, se pou li ase nou ka travay.
9 For we are glad when we are weak and ye are strong. And this also we pray for, your full qualification.
Mwen kontan nèt lè mwen menm mwen fèb, epi nou menm nou gen fòs. Se sak fè, m'ap mande nan lapriyè m' pou nou vin bon nèt sou tout pwen.
10 Because of this I write these things while absent, so that I may not act harshly when present, according to the authority that the Lord gave me for building up and not for tearing down.
M'ap ekri nou konsa lè mwen lwen nou, se pou lè m' rive lakay nou, mwen pa bezwen aji sevè avèk nou. Otorite Seyè a ban mwen an, se pa pou detwi nou non li ban mwen li. Men, se pou fè nou grandi nan konfyans nou gen nan Kris la.
11 Finally brothers, farewell. Be thoroughly prepared, be encouraged, think the same way, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.
Koulye a, frè m' yo, mwen kite nou. Chache pou nou vin bon nèt sou tout pwen. Se pou nou yonn ankouraje lòt, mete nou dakò yonn ak lòt, viv ak kè poze. Bondye ki bay renmen ak kè poze a, va toujou avè nou.
12 Salute each other by a holy kiss.
Se pou nou yonn bo lòt tankou moun k'ap viv pou Bondye.
13 All the sanctified salute you.
Tout frè k'ap viv apa pou Bondye yo voye bonjou pou nou.
14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, is with all of you. Truly.
Se pou benediksyon Seyè Jezikri ban nou an, ak renmen Bondye gen pou nou an, ansanm ak pouvwa Sentespri k'ap fè nou viv ansanm lan toujou la ak nou tout.
