Galasi 1
1 Mwen menm Pòl, se pa moun ki te chwazi m', ni Bondye pa t' voye yon moun chwazi m', men se Jezikri menm ki te chwazi m' pou sèvi apòt, ansanm ak Bondye Papa a ki te fè l' leve soti vivan nan lanmò.
Paul, an apostle—not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised Him out of the dead—
2 Tout frè ki isit la yo mete tèt ansanm avè m' pou ekri lèt sa a pou tout legliz ki nan peyi Galasi yo.
and all the brothers with me, to the assemblies of Galatia:
3 Nou mande Bondye, Papa nou, ansanm ak Jezikri, Seyè a, pou yo ban nou benediksyon ak kè poze.
Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,
4 Dapre volonte Bondye, Papa nou, Kris la te bay tèt li pou peche nou yo, pou l' te ka delivre nou anba move tan mechan ki sou latè koulye a. (aiōn g165)
who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us out of the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, (aiōn g165)
to whom [is] the glory through the ages of the ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
6 Mwen sezi wè jan nou prese vire do bay Bondye ki te rele nou, gremesi Kris la, pou n' al swiv yon lòt kalite bon nouvèl.
I wonder that you are so quickly removed from Him who called you in the grace of Christ to another good news—
7 Pou di vre, pa gen okenn lòt bon nouvèl. Men, mwen di sa paske gen moun k'ap plede chaje tèt nou, ki vle chanje anpil bagay nan bon nouvèl Kris la.
not that there is another, except there are certain who are troubling you, and wishing to pervert the good news of the Christ;
8 Enben, si yon moun ta vin anonse nou yon lòt bon nouvèl ki pa menm ak sa nou te anonse nou an, moun sa a li te mèt se mwen menm, osinon yon zanj ki soti nan syèl, madichon pou li!
but even if we or a messenger out of Heaven may proclaim good news to you different from what we proclaimed to you—let him be accursed!
9 Mwen deja di nou sa, koulye a m'ap repete nou sa ankò: si yon moun vin anonse nou yon bon nouvèl ki pa menm ak sa nou te resevwa a, madichon pou li!
As we have said before, and now say again: if anyone may proclaim to you good news different from what you received—let him be accursed!
10 Lè mwen di sa, èske sa vle di se favè moun m'ap chache? Non. Se favè Bondye m'ap chache. Eske se plezi m'ap chache fè lèzòm plezi? Si m' t'ap chache fè lèzòm plezi, se pa Kris la mwen ta ap sèvi.
For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I yet pleased men—I should not be Christ’s servant.
11 M'ap di nou sa, frè m' yo, bon nouvèl m'ap anonse a pa soti nan moun.
And I make known to you, brothers, the good news that was proclaimed by me, that it is not according to man,
12 Paske mwen menm, mwen pa t' resevwa l' nan men pesonn, ni se pa yon moun ki te moutre m' li. Men, se Jezikri menm ki te fè m' konnen li.
for neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught [it], but through a revelation of Jesus Christ,
13 Nou tande pale sa m' te konn fè nan tan lontan, lè m' te nan relijyon jwif yo. Nou konnen jan m' te san pitye lè m' t'ap pèsekite legliz Bondye a, jan m' t'ap chache kraze li.
for you heard of my behavior once in Judaism, that I was exceedingly persecuting the Assembly of God, and destroying it,
14 Nan relijyon jwif yo mwen te pi fò pase anpil moun nan ras mwen ki te menm laj avè mwen. Mwen te pi cho pase yo pou defann koutim zansèt nou yo.
and I was advancing in Judaism above many equals in age in my own race, being more abundantly zealous of my fathers’ deliverances,
15 Men, Bondye fè m' favè l', li mete m' apa depi nan vant manman m', li rele m' pou m' te ka sèvi li.
and when God was well pleased—having separated me from the womb of my mother, and having called [me] through His grace—
16 Konsa, lè se te lide l' pou l' te fè m' konnen Pitit li a, pou m' te ka anonse bon nouvèl li a nan mitan moun ki pa jwif yo, wi, lè sa a, mwen pa t' al mande pesonn konsèy.
to reveal His Son in me, that I might proclaim Him as good news among the nations, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood,
17 Mwen pa t' moute Jerizalèm non plis pou m' al wè moun ki te apòt anvan m' yo. Men, mwen te pati la menm pou peyi Arabi. Apre sa, mwen tounen tounen m' lavil Damas.
nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away to Arabia, and again returned to Damascus;
18 Sou twazan, mwen moute lavil Jerizalèm pou m' te fè konesans ak Pyè. Mwen rete kenz jou lakay li.
then, after three years I went up to Jerusalem to inquire about Peter, and remained with him fifteen days,
19 Lè sa a, mwen pa t' wè okenn nan lòt apòt yo, esepte Jak, frè Seyè a.
and I did not see [any] other of the apostles, except James, the brother of the LORD.
20 Sa m'ap ekri nou la a, se vre wi. Mwen pran Bondye pou temwen, mwen p'ap bay manti.
And the things that I write to you, behold, before God—I do not lie;
21 Apre sa, mwen te ale nan peyi Siri ak Silisi.
then I came into the regions of Syria and of Cilicia,
22 Pandan tout tan sa a, manm legliz Kris la ki te nan peyi Jide a pa t' ankò rekonèt mwen.
and was unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea, that [are] in Christ,
23 Yo te sèlman konn tande moun ap di yo: Nonm ki t'ap pesekite nou nan tan lontan an, koulye a men l'ap mache anonse bon nouvèl li te vle kraze a.
and they were only hearing that “he who is persecuting us then, now proclaims good news—the faith that he was then destroying”;
24 Yo t'ap fè lwanj Bondye pou tèt mwen.
and they were glorifying God in me.
