< 1 Peter 5 >

1 I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Messiah, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed:
Pou sa mwen egzòte ansyen legliz yo pami nou, mwen kòm yon ansyen parèy, yon temwen nan soufrans Kris la, e yon patisipan nan laglwa ki va vin revele a,
2 Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily, as God wants; not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
se pou nou vin bèje a bann mouton Bondye pami nou an. Gade sou yo pa paske nou oblije, men paske nou vle, jan Bondye vle nou ye a, pa nan pouswiv move lajan, men nan dezi pou sèvi.
3 neither as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
Ni se pa tankou kòmande sila ki plase anba otorite nou yo, men kòm yon egzanp pou bann mouton an.
4 When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that does not fade away.
Epi lè Chèf Bèje a vin parèt, nou va resevwa kouwòn laglwa ki p ap janm gate a.
5 Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility, towards one another; for God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.
Nou menm, jènjan yo, vin soumèt nou a lansyen yo. Ke nou tout, abiye nou avèk imilite youn anvè lòt, paske: “Bondye opoze a ògeye yo, men Li bay gras a moun enb yo”.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time;
Konsa desann nou anba men pwisan a Bondye a, pou Li kapab leve nou nan tan konvenab la.
7 casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
Lage tout tèt chaje nou yo sou Li, paske li sousye de nou.
8 Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
Se pou nou gen lespri serye e rete vijilan. Lènmi nou an, dyab la, ap sikile toupatou tankou yon lyon voras k ap chache yon moun pou l devore.
9 Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
Men reziste kont li, kanpe fèm nan lafwa, paske nou konnen frè kwayan yo nan mond lan, ap pase menm kalite soufrans yo.
10 And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Messiah, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen and establish you. (aiōnios g166)
Lè nou gen tan fin soufri pou yon ti tan, Bondye a tout gras ki te rele nou nan laglwa etènèl Li a an Kris, va, Li menm, fè nou pafè, konfime nou, e fè nou vin dyanm. (aiōnios g166)
11 To him be the power forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
A Li menm, pwisans pou tout tan e pou tout tan. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God. Stand firm in it.
Avèk èd Silvain, frè fidèl nou yo (se konsa mwen panse sou li) mwen ekri nou an brèf, pou ankouraje nou e bannou temwayaj ke sa se vrè gras a Bondye a. Kanpe fèm ladann!
13 She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you; and so does Mark, my son.
Madanm ki Babylone nan, ki te chwazi ansanm avèk nou an, voye bannou salitasyon li, tankou fis mwen an Marc tou.
14 Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to you all who are in Messiah.
Salye youn lòt avèk yon bo lanmou. Lapè avèk nou tout ki nan Kris la.
