1 Peter 4
1 Seeing therefore Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same thought, that he, who hath mortified the flesh, hath ceased from sin;
Konsa, paske Kris te soufri nan lachè a, ranfòse tèt nou osi avèk menm bi a; paske moun ki deja soufri nan lachè yo, gen tan sispann fè peche,
2 that he should no longer live the rest of his time in the flesh according to the lusts of men, but after the will of God.
pou nou pa viv rès tan an konsa, nan lachè ak dezi a lòm, men viv pou volonte a Bondye.
3 For the time past of our life is sufficient for us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, walking in lasciviousness, inordinate desires, excess of wine, revellings, drunkenness, and abominable idolatries:
Paske tan ki pase deja a, sifi pou nou te akonpli tout dezi a payen yo. Nou te konn pouswiv yon kous sansyèl, dezi chanèl, vin sou, banbòch, gwo fèt bwason, ak idolatri ki abominab.
4 in which they think it strange that ye run not with them into the same excess of riot, and therefore speak evil of you:
Nan tout sa, yo etone ke nou pa kouri avèk yo nan menm eksè ki fè yo dejenere konsa a, e yo pale mal sou nou.
5 who shall give an account to Him, who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
Men yo va rann kont a Sila ki prèt pou jije vivan ak mò yo a.
6 For to this end was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged indeed according to men in the flesh, but might live according to God in the spirit.
Paske pou rezon sa a, levanjil la preche menm a sila ki mouri yo, pouke, malgre, yo jije nan lachè kòm lòm, yo ta kapab viv nan lespri selon volonte a Bondye a.
7 But the end of all things draws nigh: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer:
Lafen tout bagay pwòch. Konsa, se pou nou vin saj, ak yon jan de panse byen serye pou nou kab priye.
8 having above all things fervent love to each other; for love will cover a multitude of sins.
Anplis de tout bagay, rete fèm nan lanmou nou youn pou lòt, paske lanmou kouvri yon gran kantite peche.
9 Be hospitable one to another, without grudging;
Resevwa youn lòt lakay nou san plenyen.
10 as every one hath received a gift, imparting it to each other, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
Akoz chak moun gen tan resevwa yon don espesyal, anplwaye li nan sèvi youn lòt kòm bon jeran ak tout gras ke Bondye te bay la.
11 If any one speak, let it be as declaring the oracles of God: if any one minister, let it be as from the power which God affordeth him: that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Nenpòt moun ki pale, li dwe fè sa tankou sila k ap pale pawòl a Bondye. Nenpòt moun ki sèvi, li dwe fè li tankou sila k ap sèvi avèk tout fòs ke Bondye ba li, pouke nan tout bagay, Bondye kapab glorifye atravè Jésus Kri. A Li menm, apatyen laglwa ak pwisans, pou tout tan e pou tout tan. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Beloved, be not surprised at the fiery trial coming upon you, which is to try you, as if some strange thing befel you:
Byeneme yo, pa vin etone de eprèv cho kap brile nan mitan nou an, ki parèt sou nou kòm yon eprèv, kòmsi se kèk bagay etranj k ap rive nou.
13 but rejoice in that ye are partakers in the sufferings of Christ; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may also rejoice with exceeding joy.
Men nan menm degre ke nou pataje soufrans Kris la, kontinye rejwi nou, anfen ke nan revelasyon laglwa Li, nou kapab rejwi nou avèk gwo lajwa.
14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the Spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: and though as to them He is blasphemed, yet as to you He is glorified.
Si yo pale mal de nou pou non a Kris la nou beni, paske Lespri laglwa a, ak Lespri Bondye a rete sou nou. De pati de sa yo, non L blasfeme, men sou pati pa w Li resevwa glwa.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as a malefactor, or as an intermeddler with other people's affairs.
Fè si ke okenn nan nou pa soufri kòm asasen, vòlè, oswa yon malfektè, ni yon moun k ap simen latwoublay;
16 But if any suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God herein.
Men, si yon moun soufri kòm yon Kretyen (yon moun k ap adore Kris), li pa dwe wont, men li dwe glorifye Bondye nan non sila a.
17 For the time is coming when judgement is to begin at the house of God: and if at us first, what will be the end of those that obey not the gospel of God?
Paske li lè pou jijman kòmanse avèk manm lakay Bondye yo. E si li kòmanse avèk nou an premye, kisa ki va rive a sila ki pa obeyi a levanjil a Bondye a?
18 And if the righteous be saved with difficulty, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
Epi si se avèk difikilte ke moun jis yo sove, kisa ki va rive nonm ki san Bondye a, ak pechè a?
19 Wherefore let them, that suffer according to the will of God, commit their souls in well-doing to Him as to a faithful Creator.
Konsa, sila yo osi ki soufri selon volonte Bondye a lè yo fè byen, lese yo remèt nanm yo a Li menm kòn yon Kreyatè Fidèl.
