Filip 4
1 Se pou sa, frè m' yo ak zanmi m' yo, nou menm mwen anvi wè anpil la, nou menm ki fè kè m' kontan an, nou menm ki yon lwanj pou mwen an, se konsa pou nou kenbe fèm nan lavi n'ap mennen ansanm nan Seyè a.
Therefore, my brothers, whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, so stand firm in the Lord, my beloved.
2 M'ap ekri de ti mo pou Evodi ak Sentich: Tanpri souple, mete nou dakò tankou de sè k'ap viv ansanm nan Seyè a.
I appeal to Euodia and I appeal to Syntyche to agree in the Lord.
3 Ou menm tou k'ap travay ansanm avè m', mwen mande ou pou ou ede yo, paske de medam sa yo te travay di pou fè konnen bon nouvèl la ansanm ak Kleman ak tout lòt moun ki te travay ansanm avè mwen yo. Yo tout gen non yo ekri nan Liv Bondye a ki gen non moun ki gen lavi a.
Yes, I ask you also, true companion, help these women, for they labored with me in the Good News, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the Book of Life.
4 Se pou nou toujou kontan nan lavi n'ap mennen ansanm nan Seyè a. M'ap repete l' ankò: Fè kè nou kontan anpil.
Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, Rejoice.
5 Se pou tout moun konnen nou se moun ki gen bon kè. Seyè a ap vini anvan lontan.
Let your gentleness be evident to all people. The Lord is near.
6 Pa bay kò nou traka pou anyen. Men, nan tout sikonstans mande Bondye tou sa nou bezwen nan lapriyè. Toujou chonje di l' mèsi tou lè n'ap lapriyè.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
7 Konsa, Bondye va ban nou kè poze nan jan pa l', bagay lèzòm pa ka konprann; la kenbe kè nou ak lespri nou fèm nan Jezikri.
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Pou fini, frè m' yo, mete lide nou sou bagay ki bon, ki merite lwanj: bagay ki vre, ki kòrèk, ki dwat, ki bèl, ki p'ap fè nou wont.
Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think on these things.
9 Fè tou sa mwen te moutre nou, ni sa nou te resevwa nan menm m', ni sa nou te tande m' di ak tou sa nou te wè m' fè. Konsa, Bondye k'ap bay kè poze a va toujou la avè nou.
And the things you learned and received and heard and saw in me, do these things. And the God of peace will be with you.
10 Mwen pa t' manke kontan nan lavi m'ap mennen ansanm ak Seyè a, paske nou vin fè m' wè ankò jan nou pran ka mwen. Sa pa vle di nou te lage m' non. Men, nou pa t' ankò jwenn okazyon fè m' wè jan nou fèb pou mwen.
Now I rejoice in the Lord greatly that at last you have revived your concern for me; in which you were indeed concerned, but you lacked opportunity.
11 Si nou wè m'ap pale konsa, se pa paske koulye a mwen nan nesesite. Paske nan lavi, m' aprann kontante tèt mwen ak sa m' genyen.
I'm not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content in any circumstance.
12 Mwen konnen sa ki rele viv nan mizè, mwen konnen sa ki rele viv nan richès. Kit mwen pa gen ase, kit mwen gen plis pase sa m' bezwen, nan tout sikonstans m' aprann kontante tèt mwen toupatou ak sa mwen genyen.
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have a lot. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret, whether full or hungry, whether having a lot or being in need.
13 Nenpòt sitiyasyon ki parèt devan mwen, m'ap degaje m', gremesi Kris la ki ban mwen fòs kouraj.
I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
14 Malgre sa, nou byen fèt ede m' nan traka m' yo.
Still, you have done well to share my hardship.
15 Nou menm, moun lavil Filip, nou byen konnen sa m' pral di nou la a. Lè mwen kite peyi Masedwan, lè yo te fenk konmanse ap pibliye bon nouvèl la, se nou menm sèl legliz ki te ede mwen. Se nou menm sèl ki te separe sa nou genyen avè m' pou sa m' te fè pou nou.
And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the Good News, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you only.
16 Lè m' te lavil Tesalonik, an de fwa nou voye sa m' te bezwen ban mwen.
For even in Thessalonica you sent me aid twice.
17 Se pa dèyè kado mwen ye. Men, mwen ta renmen Bondye mete sou sa nou gen deja.
Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that increases to your account.
18 Wi, mwen resevwa tou sa nou te voye ban mwen, pou di vre, sa depase sa m' te bezwen. Koulye a, avèk Epafwodit ki pote kado nou yo, mwen gen tou sa m' bezwen. Kado nou yo se tankou yon ofrann ki santi bon, yon ofrann bèt Bondye ap asepte paske sa fè l' plezi.
But I have received everything in full, and I have an abundance. I am fully supplied, having received from Epaphroditus the things that came from you, a sweet-smelling fragrance, an acceptable and well-pleasing sacrifice to God.
19 Bondye ki rich anpil la va ban nou tou sa nou bezwen nan Jezikri.
And my God will supply all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
Now to our God and Father be the glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
21 Bonjou pou pèp Bondye a k'ap viv ansanm nan Jezikri. Tout frè ki la avè m' yo voye bonjou pou nou.
Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me greet you.
22 Tout pèp Bondye a ki isit la, espesyalman sa ki nan palè Seza a, voye bonjou pou nou.
All the saints greet you, especially those who are of Caesar's household.
23 Se pou benediksyon Jezikri, Seyè a, toujou avè nou.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
