2 Korint 4
1 Konsa, se Bondye menm, nan kè sansib li gen pou mwen an, ki te renmèt mwen travay sa a pou m' fè. Se poutèt sa, mwen pa janm pèdi kouraj.
Therefore, seeing we have this ministration, according as we have obtained mercy, we faint not;
2 Mwen voye tout bagay lèd lèzòm ap fè an kachèt yo jete. Mwen pa fè okenn riz. Mwen pa chanje anyen nan pawòl Bondye a. Okontrè, mwen fè tout moun konnen verite a jan l' ye a. Se konsa bagay sa yo rekòmande mwen devan Bondye bay tout moun ki gen konsyans.
But we renounce the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor adulterating the word of God; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience, in the sight of God.
3 Si malgre sa, bon nouvèl m'ap anonse a pa klè toujou, li pa klè pou moun k'ap peri yo.
And if our gospel be also hid, it is hid to them that are lost,
4 Yo pa kwè paske sa yo pran pou Bondye nan lemonn lan bouche lespri yo. Li enpoze yo wè limyè bon nouvèl la. Se bon nouvèl sa a ki fè nou konnen pouvwa Kris la, li menm ki pòtre Bondye. (aiōn g165)
In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of unbelievers, that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not shine unto them. (aiōn g165)
5 Konprann sa byen, se pa tèt pa m' m'ap fè nou konnen: men se Jezikri, Seyè a, m'ap fè nou konnen. Mwen menm mwen di nou se sèvi m'ap sèvi nou poutèt Jezi.
For we preach not ourselves, but Jesus Christ our Lord; and ourselves your servants through Jesus.
6 Bondye ki te di: Mwen vle pou limyè a klere nan mitan fènwa a, se li menm tou ki fè limyè li a klere nan kè nou pou li fè nou konnen pouvwa li ki yon limyè ki klere byen bèl nan figi Kris la.
For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God, in the face of Christ Jesus.
7 Men, nou tout k'ap pote richès Bondye sa a nan kè nou, nou tankou veso ki fèt an tè. Tou sa se pou tout moun ka wè kokenn chenn pouvwa sa a pa soti nan nou, men se nan Bondye li soti.
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency may be of the power of God, and not of us.
8 Mwen jwenn tout kalite fikilte; men, mwen pa janm kwense nèt. Mwen konn rive nan sitiyasyon mwen pa konn ni sa pou m' fè, ni sa pou m' di. Men, mwen pa janm pèdi espwa.
In all things we suffer tribulation, but are not distressed; we are straitened, but are not destitute;
9 Yo pèsekite m', men Bondye pa janm lage mwen. Mwen pran gwo so, men mwen pa rete atè a.
We suffer persecution, but are not forsaken; we are cast down, but we perish not:
10 Se konsa, kote m' pase mwen pote soufrans lanmò Jezi a nan kò mwen, pou tout moun ka wè pouvwa lavi Jezi a ap travay nan kò m' tou.
Always bearing about in our body the mortification of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be made manifest in our bodies.
11 Nan lavi m', se tout tan m'ap pase toupre lanmò poutèt Jezi, pou pouvwa lavi Jezi a ka parèt aklè nan kò mwen ki la pou mouri.
For we who live are always delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake; that the life also of Jesus may be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
12 Konsa, lanmò ap travay nan mwen, men se lavi k'ap travay nan nou menm moun Korent.
So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
13 Men sa ki ekri nan Liv la: Mwen te gen konfyans, se poutèt sa mwen te pale. Mwen menm tou, mwen gen menm konfyans sa a, se poutèt sa m'ap pale.
But having the same spirit of faith, as it is written: I believed, for which cause I have spoken; we also believe, for which cause we speak also:
14 Mwen konnen Bondye ki te fè Seyè Jezi leve soti vivan nan lanmò a, li gen pou l' fè m' tounen vivan ankò ansanm ak Jezi, li gen pou l' fè m' parèt ansanm ak nou devan li.
Knowing that he who raised up Jesus, will raise us up also with Jesus, and place us with you.
15 Se poutèt nou menm, moun Korent, kifè tout bagay sa yo rive, paske fòk gen plis moun toujou k'ap resevwa favè Bondye a pou sa gen plis moun tou k'ap lapriyè pou di Bondye mèsi pou pouvwa li.
For all things are for your sakes; that the grace abounding through many, may abound in thanksgiving unto the glory of God.
16 Se sak fè mwen pa janm dekouraje. Menm si kò m' ap bese chak jou, lespri m' ap vin pi fèm chak jou tou.
For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man is corrupted, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
17 Sa m'ap sibi koulye a, se yon ti soufrans ki la pou pase. Men, soufrans sa a ap pare pou mwen yon bèl pouvwa k'ap la pou tout tan, pouvwa ki depase ti soufrans sa a anpil. (aiōnios g166)
For that which is at present momentary and light of our tribulation, worketh for us above measure exceedingly an eternal weight of glory. (aiōnios g166)
18 Paske, mwen p'ap konsidere bagay moun wè, men bagay moun pa wè. Sa moun wè, se bagay ki pa la pou lontan, men sa moun pa wè, se bagay ki la pou tout tan. (aiōnios g166)
While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen, are temporal; but the things which are not seen, are eternal. (aiōnios g166)
