2 Thessalonians 1
1 Paul, Silas, and Timothy: To the Church of the Thessalonians which is in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Mwen menm Pòl, ansanm ak Silven ak Timote, m'ap ekri lèt sa a voye bay manm legliz nan lavil Tesalonik k'ap viv ansanm nan Bondye, Papa a, ak Jezikri, Seyè nou an.
2 May grace and peace be granted to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Mwen mande pou Bondye, Papa a, ak Jezikri, Seyè nou an, ban nou benediksyon ak kè poze.
3 Unceasing thanks are due from us to God on your behalf, brethren. They are appropriate because your faith is growing greatly, and the love of every one of you for all the others goes on increasing.
Se yon devwa pou mwen pou m' pa janm sispann di Bondye mèsi pou nou, frè m' yo. Wi, se yon devwa pou m' fè l' vre. Paske, konfyans nou gen nan Bondye ap grandi anpil, renmen nou gen yonn pou lòt ap grandi toujou tou.
4 It so increases that we ourselves make honourable mention of you among the Churches of God because of your patience and faith amid all your persecutions and amid the afflictions which you are enduring.
Se sak fè, sa fè m' plezi pou m' nonmen non nou nan tout legliz Bondye yo, pou jan nou gen pasyans, jan nou kenbe konfyans nou fèm nan Bondye nan mitan tout pèsekisyon ak soufrans k'ap tonbe sou nou.
5 For these are a plain token of God's righteous judgement, which has in view your being deemed worthy of admission to God's Kingdom, for the sake of which, indeed, you are sufferers.
Sa fè moun wè se Bondye ki gen rezon lè l'ap jije. Paske, avèk tou sa n'ap sipòte koulye a, n'ap fin bon nèt pou nou ka antre nan peyi kote Bondye wa a. Se pou peyi sa a menm n'ap soufri konsa.
6 A plain token of God's righteous judgement, I say, since it is a righteous thing for Him to requite with affliction those who are now afflicting you;
Paske, Bondye gen pou fè sa ki byen: Bondye va gen rezon lè la fè moun k'ap fè nou soufri yo soufri tou.
7 and to requite with rest you who are suffering affliction now--rest with us at the re-appearing of the Lord Jesus from Heaven, attended by His mighty angels.
Kanta pou nou menm k'ap soufri koulye a, la ban nou repo ansanm avè m' lè Jezi va parèt nan syèl la avèk zanj li yo ki gen pouvwa.
8 He will come in flames of fire to take vengeance on those who have no knowledge of God, and do not obey the Good News as to Jesus, our Lord.
La parèt nan mitan gwo flanm dife pou peni tout moun ki pa konn Bondye yo ansanm ak moun ki p'ap mache dapre bon nouvèl ki pale sou Jezi, Seyè nou an.
9 They will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, being banished from the presence of the Lord and from His glorious majesty, (aiōnios g166)
Chatiman moun sa yo, se disparèt y'ap disparèt yo pou tout tan. Y'ap wete yo devan Seyè a, y'ap voye yo jete byen lwen pou yo pa janm resevwa pa yo nan pouvwa Seyè a ak nan lwanj y'ap fè pou li a. (aiōnios g166)
10 when He comes on that day to be glorified in His people and to be wondered at among all who have believed, including you--because you believed the testimony which we brought for your acceptance.
Jou sa a, Seyè a va parèt pou l' resevwa lwanj nan men tout moun pa l' yo. Tout moun ki te mete konfyans yo nan li va kontan wè l'. Nou menm tou n'a wè li, paske nou te kwè nan mesaj mwen te fè nou konnen an.
11 It is with this view also that we continually pray to our God for you, asking that He will count you worthy of His call, and by His mighty power fully gratify your every desire for what is truly good and make your work of faith complete;
Se poutèt sa, mwen p'ap janm sispann lapriyè pou nou. M'ap mande Bondye pou l' ede nou pou nou viv yon jan ki dakò ak lavi li mande nou pou nou viv la. M'ap mande l' pou li ban nou pouvwa li, pou nou ka fè tout byen nou vle fè, pou nou fin reyalize nèt travay n'ap fè ak konfyans nan Bondye.
12 in order that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and that you may be glorified in Him--so wonderful is the grace of our God and of the Lord Jesus Christ!
Konsa, tout moun va fè lwanj non Jezi a poutèt nou. Nou menm tou, y'a fè lwanj nou poutèt li, gremesi favè Bondye nou an ansanm ak Jezikri, Seyè a, fè nou.
