2 Corinthians 11
1 O that you were bearing with me a little of the folly, but you also bear with me:
Mwen swete ke nou ta ban mwen pèmisyon pou yon ti foli; men anfèt nou ban mwen l deja.
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,
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 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 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 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],
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 that I have been nothing behind the very chiefest apostles,
Paske mwen pa konsidere tèt mwen kòm enferyè a pi gran apot yo.
6 and even if a commoner in speech—yet not in knowledge, but in everything we were made evident 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 Did I do sin—humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I freely proclaimed the good news of God to you?
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 assemblies, having taken wages, for your ministry;
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 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.
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, because this boasting will not be stopped in regard to me 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 for what reason? Because I do not love you? God has known!
Poukisa? Paske mwen pa renmen nou? Bondye konnen ke m 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 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 those such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming 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 wonder—for even Satan transforms himself into a messenger of light;
Sa pa yon gwo sipriz, paske menm Satan degize tèt li tankou 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.
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 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.
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 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 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 also will boast:
Akoz ke anpil moun vante tèt yo selon lachè, mwen va vante tèt mwen konsa tou.
19 for you gladly bear with the fools—being wise,
Men nou menm ki tèlman saj, tolere foli a avèk kè kontan.
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;
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 in reference to dishonor, how that we were weak, and in whatever anyone is bold—in foolishness I say [it]—I also 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 also! Are they Israelites? I also! Are they seed of Abraham? I also!
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 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.
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 Five times I received from Jews forty [stripes] except one;
Senk fwa mwen te resevwa nan men Jwif yo 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;
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 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;
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 laboriousness and painfulness, many times in watchings, in hunger and thirst, many times in fastings, 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 apart from the things without—the crowding on me that is daily—the care of all the assemblies.
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 stumbled, and I am not burned?
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 our Lord Jesus Christ—who is blessed for all ages—has known 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 was watching the city of the Damascenes, wishing to seize 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 let down through a window in a rope basket, through the wall, and fled out of 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.
