1 Korint 3
1 Men, frè m' yo, pou di vre, mwen pa t' kapab pale ak nou tankou ak moun ki gen Lespri Bondye a nan kè yo. Mwen te blije pale ak nou tankou ak moun k'ap viv dapre lide ki nan lèmonn, tankou ak moun ki timoun toujou nan konfyans yo nan Kris la.
Brothers, I was not able to address you as spiritual, but as fleshly, as infants in Christ.
2 Mwen te blije moutre nou ti bagay tou senp, tankou lè yo bay timoun piti lèt, yo pa ba yo gwo manje. Paske nou pa t' ankò pare pou sa. Ata koulye a, nou poko pare.
I gave you milk and not solid food, because you were not ready yet. Alas, you are still not ready,
3 Paske n'ap viv tankou moun k'ap viv dapre lide ki nan lemonn toujou. Depi ou tande gen jalouzi nan mitan nou, depi nou gen kont yonn ak lòt, nou tou wè se moun lemonn nou ye, se tankou moun k'ap viv dapre lide ki nan lemonn lan n'ap viv.
because you are still fleshly! For since there is envy, strife and divisions among you, are you not carnal and acting like ordinary people?
4 Lè yonn rete li di: Mwen menm, mwen se moun Pòl; yon lòt: Mwen se moun Apolòs, èske se pa tankou moun lemonn n'ap pale?
For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not carnal?
5 Lè ou gade byen, ki moun ki Apolòs la? Ki moun ki Pòl la? Nou tou de se sèvitè Bondye nou ye. N'ap travay pou nou menm, moun Korent yo, nou te ka rive kwè. Chak moun te fè travay Mèt la te ba l' fè.
Who then is Paul, who is Apollos, but ministers through whom you believed, as the Lord has given to each one?
6 Mwen plante, Apolòs wouze, men se Bondye ki fè plant lan pouse.
I planted, Apollos watered, but God keeps making it grow.
7 Konsa, moun ki plante a pa anyen, moun ki wouze a pa anyen tou. Se Bondye ki tout bagay la, se li menm ki fè plant lan pouse.
So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who makes it grow.
8 Moun ki plante a ak moun ki wouze a, se menm bagay yo ye. Bondye va ba yo sa yo merite dapre travay yo fè.
Now he who plants and he who waters are at one, but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
9 Apolòs ak mwen, se travay n'ap travay ansanm pou Bondye. Nou menm, moun Korent yo, nou se tankou yon jaden Bondye bay travay pou li. Ou ankò, nou se yon kay Bondye ap bati.
Yes, we are God's coworkers; you are God's ‘field’, God's ‘building’.
10 Dapre favè Bondye te fè m' lan, mwen travay tankou yon bon enjenyè, mwen poze fondasyon an. Yon lòt ap bati sou li. Men, se pou chak moun veye kò yo pou yo konnen ki jan y'ap bati.
According to the grace of God that was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid a foundation, while another builds on it. But let each one be careful how he builds;
11 Paske fondasyon an deja la: se Jezikri. Pesonn pa ka poze yon lòt.
for no one can lay any foundation other than what is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12 Gen moun k'ap sevi ak lò, osinon ak lajan, osinon ak bèl wòch ki koute chè pou bati sou fondasyon an. Gen lòt menm k'ap sèvi ak bwa, ak zèb chèch, ak pay.
Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw,
13 Men, se jou jijman an n'a wè ki kalite travay chak moun te bay. Se jou sa a ki va devwale kalite travay chak moun te fè. Paske jou sa a, se nan mitan dife l'ap parèt. Dife a pral sonde travay chak moun. L'ap fè wè kalite travay yo.
the work of each will become evident; because the Day will make it clear, because it will be revealed by fire. Yes, the fire will test each one's work, of what sort it is.
14 Si dife a pa boule travay yon moun bati sou fondasyon an, moun sa a ap resevwa rekonpans li.
If the work that anyone built endures, he will receive a reward.
15 Men tou, si dife a boule travay yon moun, moun sa a ap pèdi travay li. Men li menm, l'ap sove, tankou yon moun ki chape nan yon kay k'ap boule.
If anyone's work is burned up, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, albeit so as through fire.
16 Eske nou pa konnen se tanp Bondye a nou ye, se Lespri Bondye a ki rete nan kè nou?
Do you (pl) not know that you are a temple of God and the Spirit of God dwells in you?
17 Enben, si yon moun kraze tanp Bondye a, Bondye ap kraze l' tou. Paske tanp Bondye a se yon bagay ki apa pou li. Se nou menm ki tanp Bondye a.
If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him; because God's temple, which you are, is holy.
18 Piga pesonn twonpe tèt yo. Si yon moun mete nan lide l' li gen bon konprann tankou moun k'ap viv dapre lide ki nan lemonn yo, pito li vin fou pou l' ka gen bon konprann tout bon. (aiōn g165)
Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become ‘foolish’ so that he may become wise. (aiōn g165)
19 Paske, bon konprann moun k'ap viv dapre lide ki nan lemonn yo se bagay moun fou li ye devan Bondye. Men sa n' jwenn ekri nan Liv la: Bondye pran moun lespri yo nan pwòp pèlen yo te tann lan.
Because the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written: “He catches the wise in their craftiness”;
20 Nou jwenn sa ekri tou: Bondye konnen lide moun save yo mete nan tèt yo, li konnen tou sa pa vo anyen.
and again, “The Lord knows the reasonings of the wise, that they are futile.”
21 Konsa, pesonn pa dwe chache lwanj pou tèt pa yo nan sa moun ka fè. Pou nou menm, tout bagay se pou nou yo ye.
So then, let no one boast in men, for all things are yours:
22 Ni Pòl, ni Apolòs, ni Pyè, ni tou sa ki sou latè, se pou nou yo ye. Lavi, lanmò, bagay ki la koulye a, bagay ki gen pou vini, tou sa se pou nou yo ye tou.
whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, whether the world or life or death, whether things present or things to come—all are yours,
23 Men nou menm, se pou Kris la nou ye. Kris la menm, se pou Bondye.
and you are Christ's, and Christ is God's.
