Hebrews 4
1 Let us fear therefore, lest perhaps anyone of you should seem to have come short of a promise of entering into his rest.
Koulye a, Bondye kenbe menm pwomès sa a pou nou toujou, pou nou ka antre kote pou nou poze kò nou ansanm ak li a. Atansyon pou okenn nan nou pa pèdi chans antre nan kote sa a.
2 For indeed we have had good news preached to us, even as they also did, but the word they heard did not profit them, because they were not united by faith with those who heard.
Paske, yo fè nou konnen bon nouvèl la menm jan ak lòt yo. Yo menm tou yo te tande mesaj la. Men, sa pa t' sèvi yo anyen, paske lè yo te tande l' la yo pa t' resevwa l' ak konfyans nan Bondye.
3 For we who have believed do enter into that rest, even as he has said, "As I swore in my wrath, they will not enter into my rest;" although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
Nou menm ki gen konfyans nan Bondye, nou pral antre kote pou nou poze kò nou ansanm ak li a. Se kote sa a li t'ap pale, lè li te di: Mwen te fè kòlè, mwen te fè sèman: Yo p'ap janm mete pye yo kote pou yo poze kò yo ansanm ak mwen an. Bondye te pale konsa, men li menm, li te fin fè travay li depi lè li t'ap kreye lemonn.
4 For he has said this somewhere about the seventh day, "And God rested on the seventh day from all his works;"
Paske, men sa ki ekri yon lòt kote nan Liv la sou setyèm jou a: Setyèm jou a, Bondye poze kò l' apre li te fin fè tout travay li yo.
5 and in this place again, "They will not enter into my rest."
Li tounen sou menm pawòl la ankò, lè li di: Yo p'ap janm mete pye yo kote pou yo poze kò yo ansanm ak mwen an.
6 Since therefore it remains for some to enter it, and they to whom the good news was before preached failed to enter in because of disobedience,
Moun ki te resevwa bon nouvèl la an premye, yo pa t' antre kote sa a paske yo pa t' mete konfyans yo nan Bondye. Konsa, gen lòt toujou ki ka antre kote sa a pou yo ka poze kò yo ansanm ak Bondye.
7 he again appoints a certain day, "Today," saying through David so long a time afterward (just as has been said), "Today if you will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts."
Se sak fè, Bondye chwazi yon lòt jou li rele jòdi a. Li pale sou jou sa a lontan lontan apre, nan pawòl David nou jwenn nan Liv la, pawòl mwen deja di nou an: Si nou tande vwa Bondye jòdi a, pa kenbe tèt ak li.
8 For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have spoken afterward of another day.
Paske, si Jozye te fè pèp Izrayèl la antre nan peyi kote pou yo te poze kò yo ansanm ak Bondye a, Bondye pa ta bezwen pale apre sa sou yon lòt jou ankò.
9 There remains therefore a Sabbath rest for the people of God.
Jan sa ye a, gen yon repo ankò pou pèp Bondye a, yon repo tankou repo Bondye te pran setyèm jou a.
10 For he who has entered into his rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from his.
Paske, moun ki antre kote pou yo poze kò yo ansanm ak Bondye a, se moun ki fin fè travay yo, menm jan Bondye te poze apre li te fin fè travay li.
11 Let us therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience.
Ann fè jefò pou nou tout ka antre kote sa a. Se pa pou okenn nan nou dezobeyi Bondye tankou moun sa yo ki te la anvan nou te fè l' la, pou nou pa pèdi chans antre kote sa a.
12 For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
Pawòl Bondye a gen lavi, li gen pouvwa. Li pi file pase kouto de bò. Li koupe jouk li jwenn kote nanm ak lespri moun fè yonn, jouk kote vyann ak mwèl zo kontre. Li jije tout santiman ak tout lide ki nan kè moun.
13 There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
Anyen pa kapab kache pou Bondye. Tout bagay nan kreyasyon Bondye a aklè konsa devan je l', san anyen pa kouvri yo. Nou menm tou, nou gen pou nou rann li kont pou tou sa nou fè.
14 Having then a great high priest, who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold tightly to our confession.
Ann kenbe fèm nan konfyans nou genyen an, paske nou gen Jezi, pitit Bondye a, k'ap sèvi nou yon gwo granprèt, li travèse syèl la jouk li rive devan Bondye menm.
15 For we do not have a high priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.
Granprèt nou an, se pa yon moun ki pa kapab soufri ak nou nan feblès nou. Okontrè, nou gen yon granprèt ki te pase anba tout kalite tantasyon menm jan ak nou. Men, li pa t' janm fè okenn peche.
16 Let us therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace for help in time of need.
Se poutèt sa, ann pwoche avèk konfyans devan fotèy kote Bondye ki renmen nou an chita. Se la n'a jwenn padon pou peche nou yo, se la n'a jwenn pou gremesi sekou n'a bezwen lè nou nan nesesite.
