1 Corinthians 11
1 Be imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ.
Se pou nou swiv egzanp mwen, menm jan mwen menm mwen swiv egzanp Kris la.
2 Now I praise you, that you remember me in all things, and hold firm the traditions, even as I delivered them to you.
Mwen fè nou konpliman pou jan nou toujou chonje m', pou jan nou kenbe tout bagay mwen te moutre nou.
3 But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.
Men, mwen vle nou konprann sa byen: Kris la se chèf tout gason, gason se chèf fanm. Bondye se chèf Kris la.
4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head.
Si yon gason kite chapo l' nan tèt li lè l'ap lapriyè osinon lè l'ap bay yon mesaj ki soti nan Bondye, li derespekte Kris la.
5 But every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonors her head. For it is one and the same thing as if she were shaved.
Men, si yon fanm pa mete anyen sou tèt li lè l'ap lapriyè osinon lè l'ap bay yon mesaj ki soti nan Bondye, li derespekte mari li. Se tankou si se te yon fanm ki te gen tèt li kale.
6 For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.
Si yon fanm pa kouvri tèt li, li ta mèt tou koupe cheve l' tou. Enben, si se yon wont pou yon fanm koupe cheve l' ou ankò pou l' kale tèt li, se pou l' kouvri tèt li tou.
7 For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.
Gason an pa bezwen kouvri tèt li, paske se pòtre Bondye li ye. Tankou nan yon glas, li fè wè bèl pouvwa Bondye a. Men, fanm lan menm se pouvwa gason an li fè wè.
8 For man is not from woman, but woman from man;
Paske, se pa t' avèk moso nan kò yon fanm Bondye te kreye gason, se avèk moso nan kò yon gason li te fè fanm.
9 for neither was man created for the woman, but woman for the man.
Se pa pou fanm lan Bondye te kreye gason an, men se pou gason an Bondye te kreye fanm lan.
10 For this cause the woman ought to have authority on her head, because of the angels.
Se poutèt sa, akòz zanj Bondye yo, fanm lan dwe pote yon mak sou tèt li pou moutre li soumèt anba otorite mari li.
11 Nevertheless, neither is the woman independent of the man, nor the man independent of the woman, in the Lord.
Men, nan lavi n'ap mennen ansanm ak Seyè a, fanm bezwen sèvis gason, gason bezwen sèvis fanm.
12 For as woman came from man, so a man also comes through a woman; but all things are from God.
Paske, menm jan se avèk moso kò yon gason Bondye te kreye fanm, konsa tou se nan vant fanm gason soti. Men, tout bagay soti nan Bondye.
13 Judge for yourselves. Is it appropriate that a woman pray to God unveiled?
Dapre nou, èske se lizay sa pou yon fanm pa gen anyen sou tèt li lè l'ap lapriyè Bondye?
14 Doesn't even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?
Se pa natirèl pou yon gason gen cheve long. Sa se yon wont.
15 But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her, for her hair is given to her for a covering.
Men, se bèl bagay pou yon fanm gen cheve long. Bondye ba l' cheve long li yo pou sèvi l' tankou yon vwal sou tèt li.
16 But if anyone seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God's churches.
Si yon moun vle pouse diskisyon sa a pi lwen, mwen menm se tou sa mwen gen pou m' di li: ni nou menm, ni lòt legliz Bondye yo, nou pa gen lòt koutim nou swiv lè nou nan sèvis.
17 But in giving you this command, I do not praise you, that you come together not for the better but for the worse.
Pou sa m'ap di nou koulye a, mwen pa fè nou konpliman menm, paske lè nou reyini nou fè tèt nou plis tò pase nou fè tèt nou byen.
18 For first of all, when you come together in the church, I hear that divisions exist among you, and I partly believe it.
Pou kòmanse, mwen tande lè nou sanble pou sèvis la, nou fè ti pil gwo pil. Mwen konnen sa pa fin manti nèt.
19 For there also must be factions among you, that those who are approved may be revealed among you.
(Ap toujou gen divizyon nan mitan nou pou yo ka rekonèt moun ki kwè tout bon yo ak moun ki pa kwè yo.)
20 When therefore you assemble yourselves together, it is not the Lord's supper that you eat.
Lè nou reyini ansanm, gen lè se pa manje Seyè a nou vin manje.
21 For in your eating each one takes his own supper first. One is hungry, and another is drunk.
Paske, lè nou chita bò tab la, chak moun ap prese manje manje pa li. Lè konsa, yon pati rete grangou, yon lòt menm gen tan sou sitèlman li bwè.
22 What, do you not have houses to eat and to drink in? Or do you despise God's church, and put them to shame who do not have? What should I tell you? Should I praise you? In this I do not praise you.
Mwen te kwè nou gen lakay nou pou n' manje, pou n' bwè? Gen lè se respè nou manke konsa pou legliz Bondye a? Osinon, èske se wont nou vle fè moun ki pa gen anyen yo wont? Kisa nou ta vle mwen di nou sou sa? Nou ta vle m' fè nou konpliman? O non! Nou tou wè mwen pa kapab fè nou konpliman pou sa!
23 For I received from the Lord that which also I delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night in which he was betrayed took bread.
Paske, men sa Seyè a te fè m' konnen, se sa menm mwen te moutre nou tou: Jou lannwit yo te trayi l' la, Seyè Jezi te pran pen,
24 When he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, "This is my body, which is for you. Do this in memory of me."
lè li fin di Bondye mèsi li kase l', epi li di: Sa a se kò m', se pou nou li ye. Se pou nou fè sa pou nou ka chonje mwen.
25 In the same way he also took the cup, after the meal, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me."
Konsa tou, apre yo fin manje, li pran gode diven an, li di yo: Gode sa a se nouvo kontra Bondye fè avè nou nan san mwen. Se pou nou fè sa chak fwa n'ap bwè ladan l' pou nou ka chonje mwen.
26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
Se konsa, chak fwa n'ap manje pen sa a, chak fwa n'ap bwè nan gode sa a, se lanmò Kris la n'ap anonse jouk jou Seyè a gen pou l' vini an.
27 Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks the Lord's cup in a manner unworthy will be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.
Se poutèt sa, si yon moun manje pen Seyè a, osinon li bwè nan gode Seyè a yon jan ki pa konvenab, moun sa a koupab, paske li peche ni kont kò Seyè a ni kont san li an.
28 But let a person examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.
Se pou chak moun egzaminen tèt yo byen anvan. Se konsa y'a mèt manje pen sa a, y'a mèt bwè nan gode sa a.
29 For he who eats and drinks eats and drinks judgment to himself, if he does not discern the body.
Si yon moun manje pen sa a, si l' bwè nan gode sa a san li pa rekonèt rapò pen an ansanm ak diven an gen avèk kò Seyè a, se rale l'ap rale yon jijman sou tèt li lè l'ap manje pen an ak lè l'ap bwè nan gode a.
30 For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep.
Se sak fè gen anpil moun malad konsa nan mitan nou, anpil moun k'ap soufri feblès, san konte sa ki mouri deja.
31 For if we discerned ourselves, we would not be judged.
Si nou te egzaminen tèt nou byen anvan, nou pa ta tonbe anba jijman Bondye a.
32 But when we are judged, we are punished by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.
Men, Seyè a jije nou, li peni nou konsa pou li sa pa kondannen nou ansanm ak moun ki nan lemonn yo.
33 Therefore, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait one for another.
Se sak fè, frè m' yo, lè nou reyini ansanm pou manje manje Seyè a, se pou yonn tann lòt.
34 But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest your coming together be for judgment. The rest I will set in order whenever I come.
Si yon moun grangou, se pou l' manje lakay li, pou l' pa rale jijman Bondye sou nou lè nou reyini. Pou lòt keksyon yo, m'a regle sa lè m'a rive lakay nou.
