2 Corinthians 6
1 As co-workers with him, we beseech you, that you receive not the grace of God in vain:
Epi nan travay ansanm avèk Li menm, nou osi ankouraje ou pou nou pa resevwa lagras Bondye a anven.
2 (for he says: I have heard thee in an acceptable time, and in the day of salvation I have helped thee. Behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation: )
Paske Li di: “Nan tan akseptab la Mwen te koute nou, e nan jou sali a Mwen te ede nou”. Gade byen, koulye a se “tan akseptab la”. Gade byen, koulye a se “jou sali a”.
3 for we put no stumbling-block in any man’s way, in order that this ministry may not be blamed;
Konsa, Nou p ap bay kòz pou ofans nan anyen, pou ministè a pa vin pèdi valè li.
4 but in all things we commend ourselves as the ministers of God, in much suffering, in afflictions, in distresses, in straits,
Men nan tout bagay pou n ap rekòmande tèt nou kòm sèvitè a Bondye: nananpil andirans, nan afliksyon, difikilte, ak detrès
5 in stripes, in prisons, in commotions, in labors, in watchings, in fastings;
nan pran kou, nan pran prizon, nan twoub, nan travay di, nan san dòmi nan grangou
6 by purity, by knowledge, by long forbearance, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by love unfeigned,
nan lavi dwat, nan konesans, nan pasyans, nan bonte, nan Lespri Sen an, nan vrè lanmou an
7 by the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
nan pawòl verite a, nan pwisans Bondye a; ak zam ladwati pou men dwat ak men goch yo,
8 by honor and dishonor, by evil report, and good report; as impostors, yet truthful;
pa laglwa ak wont, pa move rapò ak bon rapò, gade kòm mantè yo, malgre sa nan verite a;
9 as unknown, yet well-known; as dying, and behold, we live; as chastened, and yet not put to death;
kòm enkoni malgre byen koni, kòm moun k ap mouri men gade, nou byen vivan; kon sila ke y ap pini, men poko mete a lanmò,
10 as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, yet possessing all things.
kòm plen ak tristès men toujou ap rejwi, kòm pòv, men ap fè anpil moun rich, kòm yon moun ki pa genyen anyen men ki posede tout bagay.
11 Corinthians, our mouth is opened to you, our heart is enlarged:
Bouch nou pale avèk libète ak nou menm, o Korentyen yo. Kè nou ouvri byen laj.
12 you are not straitened in us, but you are straitened in your own affections.
Nou pa anpeche nou, men ou anpeche nan pwòp afeksyon pa w.
13 That you may repay me in like manner, (I speak as to children, ) be you also enlarged.
Koulye a, nan yon echanj konsa—-m ap pale kòmsi se ak timoun mwen yo—-ouvri kè nou laj pou nou tou.
14 Be not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? What communion has light with darkness?
Pa mare ansanm avèk enkwayan yo; paske ki relasyon ki gen antre ladwati ak inikite, oswa ki rapò ki genyen antre limyè ak tenèb?
15 What agreement has Christ with Belial? What connection has a believer with an unbeliever?
Oubyen ki amitye Kris gen avèk Bélial, oswa kisa yon kwayan gen an komen avèk yon enkwayan?
16 What has a temple of God in common with one of idols? For you are the temple of the living God, as God has said: I will dwell in them, and walk among them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Oswa, ki akò tanp Bondye a gen avèk zidòl yo? Paske nou se tanp a Bondye vivan an. Jan Bondye te di a: “Mwen va viv nan yo e mache pami yo. Mwen va Bondye pa yo e yo va pèp Mwen.”
17 For this reason, come out from among them, and separate yourselves, says the Lord, and touch not an unclean person, and I will receive you;
Konsa, “‘Soti nan mitan yo, e separe de yo’, di Senyè a. ‘Pa touche sa ki enpi. Mwen va akeyi nou.
18 and I will be to you a father, and you shall be to me sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.
Mwen va yon Papa pou nou, e nou va fis ak fi pou Mwen,’ di Senyè Tou Pwisan an.”
