2 Corinthians 11
1 O that you were bearing with me a little of the folly, but you also bear with me:
Mwen ta renmen nou pèmèt mwen pran pòz moun fou m' pou yon ti moman. Enben, wi, pèmèt mwen fè sa.
2 for I am zealous for you with zeal of God, for I betrothed you to one Husband, a pure virgin, to present to Christ,
M'ap fè jalouzi pou nou, yon jalouzi ki soti nan Bondye. Paske, nou tankou yon jenn fi ki pa nan dezòd. Mwen fiyanse nou ak yon sèl gason. Gason sa a se Kris la.
3 and I fear, lest, as the serpent deceived Eve in his subtlety, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that [is] in the Christ;
Men, mwen pè pou lespri nou pa pèvèti, pou nou pa manke Kris la pawòl, pou nou pa tonbe nan dezòd tankou Ev ki te kite sèpan an vire lòlòj li ak riz li yo.
4 for if, indeed, he who is coming preaches another Jesus whom we did not preach, or you receive another spirit which you did not receive, or other good news which you did not accept—well were you bearing [it],
Mwen di sa paske mwen wè nou kite nenpòt ki moun vin fè nou konnen yon Jezi ki pa menm ak Jezi mwen te fè nou konnen an, epi nou pa di anyen. Mwen wè nou pare pou n' asepte yon lespri ak yon mesaj ki pa menm ni ak Lespri Bondye a, ni ak bon nouvèl mwen te ban nou an.
5 for I reckon that I have been nothing behind the very chiefest apostles,
Pou mwen, mwen pa wè sa apòt ki kwè yo plis pase tout moun yo gen pase mwen.
6 and even if a commoner in speech—yet not in knowledge, but in everything we were made evident in all things to you.
Mwen ka pa konn pale byen, men pou konesans la, se pa menm bagay. Nan tout okazyon ak nan tout bagay mwen te toujou fè nou wè sa.
7 Did I do sin—humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I freely proclaimed the good news of God to you?
Lè m' te anonse nou bon nouvèl Bondye a, mwen te fè sa gratis pou nou, mwen te desann tèt mwen pou m' te ka fè nou kanpe. Eske mwen te gen tò lè m' te fè sa?
8 I robbed other assemblies, having taken wages, for your ministry;
Lè sa a, mwen te asepte lajan nan men lòt legliz yo. Se tankou si m' te pran nan sa ki pou yo pou m' te kapab ede nou.
9 and being present with you, and having been in want, I was chargeable to no one, for the brothers supplied my lack—having come from Macedonia—and I kept myself burdenless to you in everything, and will keep.
Pandan tout tan mwen te pase lakay nou an, mwen pa t' sou kont pesonn lè m' te bezwen lajan, paske frè ki soti Masedwan yo te pote tou sa m' te bezwen pou mwen. Mwen te pran kont prekosyon m' pou m' pa t' sou kont nou yonn pou anyen, epi m'ap toujou pran menm prekosyon sa a.
10 The truth of Christ is in me, because this boasting will not be stopped in regard to me in the regions of Achaia;
Jan mwen sèten mwen konnen verite Kris la, mwen pa ka bay manti, se konsa m'ap di nou sa: rezon sa a mwen genyen pou m' vante tèt mwen nan tout peyi Lakayi a, pesonn p'ap kapab wete l' nan men mwen.
11 for what reason? Because I do not love you? God has known!
Poukisa? Eske se paske mwen pa renmen nou? Se Bondye ki konnen jan mwen renmen nou.
12 And what I do, I also will do, that I may cut off the occasion of those wishing an occasion, that in that which they boast they may be found according as we also;
Men, m'ap toujou aji jan m'ap aji koulye a, pou m' pa bay moun k'ap chache okazyon pou yo fè grandizè chans pou yo ka di yo travay menm jan ak mwen.
13 for those such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ,
Moun sa yo, se pòz apòt yo y'ap pran. Y'ap bay manti sou travay yo, y'ap fè tèt yo pase pou apòt Kris la.
14 and no wonder—for even Satan transforms himself into a messenger of light;
Pa gen anyen la a ki pou fè n' sezi: ata Satan ka ranje kò l' pou l' pran pòz yon zanj limyè.
15 [it is] no great thing, then, if his servants also transform themselves as servants of righteousness—whose end will be according to their works.
Si moun k'ap sèvi Satan yo pran pòz moun k'ap sèvi sa ki byen, pa gen anyen ki dwòl nan sa. Men, bout pou bout y'a jwenn sa y'ap chache a.
16 Again I say, may no one think me to be a fool; and if otherwise, receive me even as a fool, that I also may boast a little.
M'ap repete sa m' te di a: Piga pesonn pran m' pou moun fou. Men, si nou pran m' pou moun fou, kite m' pran pòz moun fou m' vre pou m' kapab vante tèt mwen yon ti kras tou.
17 That which I speak, I do not speak according to the LORD, but as in foolishness, in this the confidence of boasting;
Sa m'ap di koulye a, se pa sa menm Seyè a ta renmen m' di. Men, nan pozisyon yo mete m' ki fè m' ka vante tèt mwen an, m'ap pale tankou si m' te fou.
18 since many boast according to the flesh, I also will boast:
Sitèlman gen moun k'ap vante tèt yo pou bagay y'ap fè sou latè, kite m' vante tèt mwen tou.
19 for you gladly bear with the fools—being wise,
Nou menm ki gen bon konprann nou pa manke tolere moun fou!
20 for you bear, if anyone is bringing you under bondage, if anyone devours, if anyone takes away, if anyone exalts himself, if anyone strikes you on the face;
Nou kite yo fè nou tounen esklav, nou kite yo devore nou, nou kite yo pran nou nan pèlen, nou kite yo fè awogans sou nou, nou kite yo ban nou souflèt.
21 I speak in reference to dishonor, how that we were weak, and in whatever anyone is bold—in foolishness I say [it]—I also am bold.
Wi, mwen wont di sa: Mwen te twò fèb pou m' te aji jan m' te aji ak nou an! Men, si gen moun ki ka pèmèt yo vante tèt yo pou lòt bagay (pa bliye m'ap pale tankou yon moun fou wi!) mwen menm tou m'ap pèmèt mwen fè sa tou.
22 Are they Hebrews? I also! Are they Israelites? I also! Are they seed of Abraham? I also!
Eske yo se pitit pitit Ebè? Mwen menm tou. Eske yo se moun ras Izrayèl la? Mwen menm tou. Eske yo se pitit pitit Abraram? Mwen menm tou.
23 Are they servants of Christ? As [if] beside myself I speak—I [am] more; in labors more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths many times.
Eske yo se moun k'ap sèvi Kris la? (M'ap pale koulye a tankou moun ki deraye nèt.) Mwen sèvi Kris la plis pase yo: mwen travay pase yo, yo mete m' nan prizon pi plis pase yo, yo bat mwen pi plis pase yo, mwen manke mouri pi souvan pase yo.
24 Five times I received from Jews forty [stripes] except one;
An senk fwa, jwif yo ban m' trant nèf kout fwèt.
25 three times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three times I was shipwrecked, I have passed a night and a day in the deep;
An twa fwa, women yo bat mwen. Yon fwa yo kalonnen m' wòch pou yo te touye mwen. Batiman koule avè m' twa fwa. Yon fwa menm mwen pase yon jou ak yon nwit nan dlo.
26 journeys many times, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from [my own] race, perils from nations, perils in city, perils in wilderness, perils in sea, perils among false brothers;
Anpil fwa menm, lè m'ap vwayaje konsa dlo larivyè manke pote m' ale. Bandi manke touye m', jwif yo manke touye m' tou, ata moun lòt nasyon yo manke touye m' tou. Mwen te an danje nan lavil, mwen te an danje andeyò, mwen te an danje sou lanmè. Ata swadizan frè yo manke touye mwen.
27 in laboriousness and painfulness, many times in watchings, in hunger and thirst, many times in fastings, in cold and nakedness;
Mwen redi travay di, mwen fatige kò m' anpil, mwen pase anpil nwit san dòmi, mwen konnen sa ki rele grangou ak swaf dlo. Anpil fwa mwen te blije rete san manje, mwen soufri fredi, mwen konn pa gen rad pou m' mete sou mwen.
28 apart from the things without—the crowding on me that is daily—the care of all the assemblies.
San konte anpil lòt bagay ankò, chak jou se tèt chaje pou mwen ak bagay mwen gen pou m' regle pou tout legliz yo.
29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is stumbled, and I am not burned?
Si yon moun fèb, lamenm mwen fèb tou. Si yon moun tonbe nan peche, sa rann mwen malad.
30 If it is necessary to boast, I will boast of the things of my weakness;
Si se pou m' vante tèt mwen, m'a vante tèt mwen pou tout bagay ki pou moutre jan m' fèb.
31 the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ—who is blessed for all ages—has known that I do not lie! (aiōn g165)
Bondye ki Papa Seyè Jezi a (li menm k'ap resevwa lwanj tout tan an), li konnen mwen p'ap bay manti. (aiōn g165)
32 In Damascus the governor [under] Aretas the king was watching the city of the Damascenes, wishing to seize me,
Lè m' te lavil Damas, moun wa Aretas te mete pou gouvènen lavil la pran gad, li mete yo nan tout pòtay lavil la pou yo te arete m'.
33 and I was let down through a window in a rope basket, through the wall, and fled out of his hands.
Men frè yo fè m' pase nan yon fennèt nan gwo miray lavil la. Yo file m' desann nan yon panyen. Se konsa mwen te chape kò m' anba men li.
