Revelation 2
1 And to the aungel of the chirche of Efesus write thou, These thingis seith he, that holdith the seuene sterris in his riyt hond, which walkith in the middil of the seuene goldun candilstikis.
“A zanj nan legliz Éphèse la, ekri: Sila ki kenbe sèt zetwal yo nan men dwat Li a, Sila ki mache pami sèt chandelye fèt an lò yo, di sa a:
2 Y woot thi werkis, and trauel, and thi pacience, and that thou maist not suffre yuele men; and thou hast asaied hem that seien that thei ben apostlis, and ben not, and thou hast foundun hem lieris;
“Mwen konnen zèv nou yo, travay di nou an, ak pèseverans nou, ke nou pa kapab tolere moun mechan, e nou te pase an eprèv sa yo ki rele tèt yo apòt, lè l pa t vrè, epi te twouve yo fo.
3 and thou hast pacience, and thou hast suffrid for my name, and failidist not.
Nou gen pèseverans ak andirans pou koz a non Mwen, e nou pa t bouke.
4 But Y haue ayens thee a fewe thingis, that thou hast left thi firste charite.
“Men Mwen gen sa kont nou, ke nou kite premye lanmou nou an.
5 Therfor be thou myndeful fro whennus thou hast falle, and do penaunce, and do the firste werkis; ether ellis, Y come soone to thee, and Y schal moue thi candilstike fro his place, but `thou do penaunce.
Alò, sonje kote nou te tonbe a, epi repanti e fè zèv ke nou te fè avan yo; sinon Mwen ap vini kote nou pou retire chandelye nou an nan plas li, amwenske nou repanti.
6 But thou hast this good thing, that thou hatidist the dedis of Nycholaitis, the whiche also Y hate.
Poutan nou genyen sa a, ke nou rayi zèv Nikolayityen yo, ke Mwen menm, Mwen rayi tou.
7 He that hath eeris, here he, what the spirit seith to the chirchis. To hym that ouercometh Y schal yyue to ete of the tre of lijf, that is in the paradis of my God.
“Sila ki gen yon zòrèy la, kite li tande sa Lespri a di a legliz yo. A sila ki venkè a, Mwen va kite l manje nan pyebwa lavi a ki nan Paradi Bondye a.
8 And to the aungel of the chirche of Smyrma write thou, These thingis seith the firste and the laste, that was deed, and lyueth.
“A zanj legliz Smyrne lan, ekri: Premye ak dènye a, ki te mouri an, e ki te retounen a lavi a, di sa a:
9 Y woot thi tribulacioun, and thi pouert, but thou art riche; and thou art blasfemyd of hem, that seien, that thei ben Jewis, and ben not, but ben the synagoge of Sathanas.
Mwen konnen tribilasyon ak povrete nou (men nou rich); epi blasfèm pa sila ki di yo se Jwif men ki pa sa yo, men ki se yon sinagòg pou Satan.
10 Drede thou no thing of these thingis, whiche thou schalt suffre. Lo! the deuel schal sende summe of you in to prisoun, that ye be temptid; and ye schulen haue tribulacioun ten daies. Be thou feithful to the deth, and Y schal yyue to thee a coroun of lijf.
“Pa pè pou sa nou prèt pou soufri yo. Veye, dyab la prèt pou voye kèk nan nou nan prizon, pou nou kab pase a leprèv, e nou va gen tribilasyon pandan di jou. Rete fidèl jiska lanmò, e mwen va bannou kouwòn lavi a.
11 He that hath eeris, here he, what the spirit seith to the chirchis. He that ouercometh, schal not be hirt of the secounde deth.
“Sila ki gen yon zòrèy la, kite l tande sa Lespri a di a legliz yo. Sila ki venkè a, p ap soufri donmaj pa dezyèm lanmò a.
12 And to the aungel of the chirche of Pergamus write thou, These thingis seith he, that hath the swerd scharp on ech side.
“A zanj legliz nan Pergame nan, ekri: Sila a ki gen nepe file de bò a, di sa a:
13 Y woot where thou dwellist, where the seete of Sathanas is; and thou holdist my name, and denyedist not my feith. And in tho daies was Antifas, my feithful witnesse, that was slayn at you, where Sathanas dwellith.
Mwen konnen kote nou rete, kote twòn a Satan an ye. Nou kenbe fèm nan Non Mwen, e nou pa t nye lafwa nan Mwen an, menm nan jou Antipas yo, temwen Mwen an, fidèl Mwen an, ki te touye pami nou, kote Satan rete a.
14 But Y haue ayens thee a fewe thingis; for thou hast `there men holdinge the teching of Balaam, which tauyte Balaac for to sende sclaundre bifor the sones of Israel, to ete of sacrificis of ydols, and to do fornicacioun;
“Men Mwen gen kèk bagay kont nou; paske nou gen la kèk moun ki kenbe nan ansèyman Balaam, ki te ansenye Balak pou mete yon wòch chite devan fis Israël yo, pou manje bagay ki te sakrifye a zidòl e komèt zak imoral.
15 so also thou hast men holdinge the teching of Nycholaitis.
Konsa tou, nou gen kèk moun ki, nan menm jan an, k ap kenbe sou ansèyman Nikolayityen yo.
16 Also do thou penaunce; `yif ony thing lesse, Y schal come soone to thee, and Y schal fiyte with hem with the swerd of my mouth.
“Konsa, repanti; sinon, Mwen va vini kote nou vit, e Mwen va fè lagè kont yo avèk nepe a bouch Mwen an.
17 He that hath eeris, here he, what the spirit seith to the chirches. To him that ouercometh Y schal yyue aungel mete hid; and Y schal yyue to hym a whiit stoon, and in the stoon a newe name writun, which no man knowith, but he that takith.
“Sila ki gen yon zòrèy la, kite l tande sa Lespri a di a legliz yo. A sila ki venkè a, a li menm, Mwen va bay kèk nan lamàn kache a, e Mwen va ba li yon wòch blan avèk yon non tounèf ki ekri sou wòch la ke pèsòn p ap konnen, sinon sila ki resevwa l la.
18 And to the aungel of the chirche of Tiatira write thou, These thingis seith the sone of God, that hath iyen as flawme of fier, and hise feet lijk latoun.
“A zanj a legliz nan Thyatire a, ekri: Fis Bondye a, ki gen zye tankou yon flanm dife a e pye tankou bwonz poli a, di sa a:
19 Y knowe thi werkis, and feith, and charite, and thi seruyce, and thi pacience, and thi laste werkis mo than the formere.
Mwen konnen zèv nou yo, lanmou nou, lafwa, sèvis, ak pèseverans, e ke zèv nou dènye tan sa yo pi gran pase avan yo.
20 But Y haue ayens thee a fewe thingis; for thou suffrist the womman Jesabel, which seith that sche is a prophetesse, to teche and disseyue my seruauntis, to do letcherie, and to ete of thingis offrid to idols.
“Men Mwen gen sa kont nou, ke nou tolere fanm Jézabel la, ki rele tèt li pwofetès, e ki ansenye pou fè egare sèvitè Mwen yo, pou yo kab komèt vye zak imoral e manje bagay sakrifye a zidòl.
21 And Y yaf to hir time, that sche schulde do penaunce, and sche wolde not do penaunce of hir fornycacioun.
Mwen te ba li tan pou repanti, e li pa vle repanti de imoralite li yo.
22 And lo! Y sende hir in to a bed, and thei that doen letcherie with hir schulen be in moost tribulacioun, but thei don penaunce of hir werkis.
“Gade byen, Mwen va jete li sou yon kabann plen maladi, e sila ki fè adiltè yo avèk li nan gran tribilasyon an, amwenske yo repanti de zèv li yo.
23 And Y schal slee hir sones in to deth, and alle chirchis schulen wite, that Y am serchinge reynes and hertis; and Y schal yyue to ech man of you after hise werkis.
Konsa, Mwen va touye pitit li yo avèk gwo maladi lapès, e tout legliz yo va konnen ke Mwen menm se Sila ki sonde panse ak kè yo. Mwen va bay nou chak selon zèv nou.
24 And Y seie to you, and to othere that ben at Tiatire, who euer han not this teching, and that knewen not the hiynesse of Sathanas, hou thei seien, Y schal not sende on you another charge; netheles holde ye that that ye han,
“Men Mwen di nou, rès moun ki nan Thyatire yo, ki pa kenbe a doktrin sila a, ki pa t konnen bagay pwofon a Satan yo, jan yo rele yo a, Mwen pa mete lòt fado sou nou.
25 til Y come.
Sepandan kenbe fèm a sa nou genyen an jiskaske M vini.
26 And to hym that schal ouercome, and that schal kepe til in to the ende my werkis, Y schal yyue power on folkis,
“Sila ki venkè a, e sila ki kenbe zèv Mwen yo jiska lafen an, a li menm Mwen va bay otorite sou nasyon yo.
27 and he schal gouerne hem in an yrun yerde; and thei schulen be brokun to gidre,
Li va gouvène yo avèk yon baton fè, tankou veso ajil ki vin kraze an mòso, jan Mwen menm te resevwa otorite soti nan Papa M nan;
28 as a vessel of a pottere, as also Y resseyuede of my fadir; and Y schal yyue to hym a morewe sterre.
epi Mwen va ba li zetwal maten an.
29 He that hath eeris, here he, what the spirit seith to the chirchis.
“Sila ki gen yon zòrèy la, kite l tande sa Lespri a di a legliz yo”.
