Hebrews 4
1 Let us then fear, since a promise is still left us of entering into his rest, lest any one of you should appear to fail of obtaining it.
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 to us were glad tidings addressed, as well as to them; but the word which was heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it.
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 believed enter into the rest, as he hath said: “So I swore in my wrath, they shall 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 hath spoken in a certain place of the seventh day thus: “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 shall 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 then it still remaineth for some to enter into it, and they to whom the glad tidings of it were first brought did not 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 appointeth a certain day, “To-day”—saying in David so long a time after, as hath before been said—”To-day, if ye hear his voice, harden not 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 after this be speaking 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 remaineth therefore a sabbath-rest to 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 that hath entered into his rest, hath himself rested from his works, as God did from his own.
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 then strive to enter into that rest, that no one may fall, as a like 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 powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, both the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents 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 and there is no creature that is not manifest in his sight; but all things are naked and laid open to 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 Since, then, we have a great high-priest, who hath passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
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 have not a high-priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who hath in all points been tempted as we are, 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 come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to 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.
