Hebrews 12
1 Having therefore so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us lay aside every incumbrance, and the sin that easily besets us, and run with patience the race that is set before us,
Konsa, akoz ke nou gen yon si tèlman gran nwaj temwen ki antoure nou, annou osi mete sou kote tout anpèchman ak peche ki trè fasil vin vlope nou, e annou kouri avèk andirans kous la ki mete devan nou an,
2 looking unto Jesus the leader and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
ak zye nou byen fikse sou Jésus fondatè e nonm pafè lafwa a, ki pou lajwa ki te mete devan Li an, te sipòte lakwa a, te meprize wont lan, e te vin chita sou men dwat twòn Bondye a.
3 Wherefore consider Him who endured such contradiction of sinners against Himself, that ye may not give out, fainting in your minds:
Paske konsidere Li menm ki te andire tèl opozisyon pa pechè yo kont Li menm, pou nou menm pa t ap vin fatige e dekouraje.
4 for ye have not resisted unto blood in striving against sin.
Nou poko reziste jis rive pou rann san nan lit nou kont peche.
5 Have ye forgotten the exhortation, which speaketh to you as to sons, saying, "My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord, nor saint when rebuked by Him?
Nou gen tan bliye egzòtasyon ki te adrese a nou menm kòm fis yo: “Fis mwen, pa gade a la lejè disiplin Bondye a, ni vin febli lè nou korije pa Li;
6 for whom the Lord loveth He chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom He receiveth."
Paske sila ke Bondye renmen yo, Li disipline yo, e Li fwete tout fis ke L resevwa.”
7 If ye endure chastening, God treateth you as sons; for what son is there, whom the father doth not chastise?
Se pou disiplin ke nou andire. Bondye aji avèk nou kòm fis, paske ki fis ki genyen ke papa l pa ba l disiplin?
8 But if ye be without chastisement, of which all are partakers, then are ye bastards and not sons.
Men si nou san disiplin kon sila nou tout gen tan patisipe a, alò, nou se pitit ilejitim, e pa vrè fis.
9 Now if we had fathers of our flesh, who corrected us, and we gave them reverence; shall we not much more be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and live?
Anplis ke sa, nou te gen papa sou latè pou disipline nou, e nou te respekte yo. Èske nou pa ta bokou pito vin soumèt a Papa a tout lespri yo, e viv?
10 For they indeed corrected us for a while, as seemed good to them; but He for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness.
Paske yo te disipline nou pou yon ti tan ki, selon yo, te sanble pi bon, men Li menm, Li disipline nou pou byen nou pou nou kapab pataje sentete Li a.
11 Now no chastening seems for the present to be matter of joy but of grief: and yet afterwards it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those that are exercised thereby.
Tout disiplin, nan moman an, sanble pa bay lajwa, men tristès. Malgre a sila ki fin antrene pa li yo, li vin bay fwi lapè ladwati a.
12 Lift up therefore the hands that hang down, and strengthen the feeble knees.
Konsa ranfòse men ki manke fòs ak jenou ki fèb yo,
13 And make strait paths for your feet, that what is lame may not be turned out of the way, but rather be healed.
epi fè chemen pye nou dwat, jis pou manm kò ki mal ranje a pa vin dejwente nèt, men pito vin geri.
14 Follow peace with all men; and holiness, without which none shall see the Lord:
Chèche lapè avèk tout moun, avèk sanktifikasyon. San sa a, pèsòn p ap wè Senyè a.
15 looking to it, least there be any one falling short of the grace of God, least any root of bitterness springing up should be troublesome, and by it many be defiled:
Fè si ke pèsòn pa manke rive nan gras Bondye a; pou okenn rasin anmè pa vin monte pou fè twoub, e pa li menm, anpil moun ta vin konwonpi.
16 least there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one repast gave away his birthright.
Pa kite nou gen okenn moun imoral oubyen san Bondye tankou Esaü ki te vann pwòp dwa eritaj li a pou yon sèl repa manje.
17 For ye know that, when he would afterwards have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no room for repentance, though he sought it earnestly even with tears.
Paske nou konnen ke menm apre sa, lè li te dezire vin eritye yon benediksyon, li te rejte, paske li pa t twouve yon plas pou repantans, malgre li te chache sa ak dlo nan zye.
18 Ye are not come to a tangible mountain, and burning fire, and a thick cloud, and darkness, and tempest,
Paske nou pa t vin kote yon mòn ki kapab touche e ki t ap flanbe, ni a tenèb, fènwa, ak tanpèt
19 and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words, which they that heard, intreated that the word might not any more be thus delivered to them:
ni a gwo kout twonpèt ak son pawòl ki sone tankou sila ki te tande l t ap mande sekou a, pou okenn pawòl pa t pale a yo menm ankò.
20 (for they could not bear the strict command, if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or shot through with a dart;
Paske yo pa t kapab sipòte dekrè lan: “Menm si yon bèt touche mòn nan, li va lapide ak kout wòch.”
21 and so terrible was the appearance that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and tremble: )
Vizyon sila a te si tèlman tèrib ke Moïse te di: “Mwen plen lakrent ak tranbleman”.
22 but ye are come to mount Sion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of angels,
Men nou menm, nou te vini sou Mòn Sion ak vil a Bondye vivan an, Jérusalem selès la, e avèk kantite zanj ki pa t kab menm kontwole,
23 to the general assembly and church of the first-born who are written in heaven, and to God the judge of all, and to the spirits of the just made perfect,
anvè gran asanble a, ak legliz premye ne yo ki anrejistre nan syèl la, anvè Bondye, jij a tout moun nan, e anvè lespri a moun ladwati ki te fèt pafè yo,
24 and to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than Abel.
epi anvè Jésus medyatè yon akò tounèf la, e anvè san vèse a, ki pale pi klè pase san Abel la.
25 See that ye reject not Him that speaketh; for if they escaped not, who rejected him that gave forth divine oracles on earth, much less shall we, if we turn away from Him that speaketh from heaven:
Fè si ke nou pa refize Sila k ap pale a. Paske si sa yo pa t chape lè yo te refize li menm ki te avèti yo sou latè a, konbyen mwens nou va chape nou menm ki vire kite Sila ki avèti nou depi nan syèl la.
26 whose voice then shook the earth; but now He hath promised, saying, "Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also the heaven."
Epi vwa Li te souke tè a nan moman an, men koulye a, Li fè yon pwomès, e Li di: “Malgre sa, yon fwa ankò Mwen va souke, non sèlman tè a, men osi syèl la.”
27 Now this expression "yet once more" signifieth the removing of the things that are shaken, as of things which had been appointed only for a season, that those which cannot be shaken may remain.
Ekspresyon sa a: “Malgre yon fwa ankò”, fè nou konprann ke tout bagay ki te kreye, ki kapab souke va retire, pou bagay sila ki pa kapab souke yo, kapab vin rete.
28 Wherefore since we receive a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and holy fear:
Konsa, akoz ke nou resevwa yon wayòm ki pa kapab souke, annou montre rekonesans, pa sila nou kapab ofri a Bondye yon sèvis akseptab, avèk reverans ak lakrent.
29 for our God is a consuming fire.
Paske Bondye nou an se yon dife k ap devore.
