Revelasyon 1
1 Men revelasyon Bondye te bay Jezikri pou l' te fè sèvitè l' yo konnen sa ki gen pou rive anvan lontan. Se Kris la menm ki voye zanj li bò kot Jan, sèvitè l' la, pou fè l' konnen tout bagay sa yo.
This is the Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things which must happen soon, which he sent and made known by his angel to his servant, John,
2 Se menm Jan sa a k'ap rakonte tou sa li te wè. Li rapòte mesaj ki soti nan Bondye a ansanm ak verite Jezikri te fè l' konnen an.
who testified to God's word, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, about everything that he saw.
3 Benediksyon pou moun k'ap li liv sa a. Benediksyon pou tout moun k'ap koute pawòl mesaj sa a ki soti nan Bondye, pou tout moun k'ap obeyi tou sa ki ekri nan Liv sa a, paske pa rete lontan ankò pou bagay sa yo rive.
Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it, for the time is near.
4 Se mwen menm Jan, k'ap ekri sèt legliz ki nan pwovens Lazi yo. M'ap lapriyè pou nou ka resevwa benediksyon ak kè poze ki soti nan Bondye, li menm ki la, ki te toujou la epi ki gen pou vini an, benediksyon ak kè poze ki soti nan sèt lespri yo ki kanpe devan fotèy li a,
John, to the seven churches that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, from him who is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits who are before his throne;
5 benediksyon ak kè poze ki soti nan Jezikri tou, li menm ki te bay verite a jan l' ye a, li menm premie pitit ki leve soti vivan nan lanmò a, li menm ki chèf tout wa ki sou latè. Kris la renmen nou, li bay san li lè li mouri pou l' te ka delivre nou anba peche nou yo.
and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us, and freed us from our sins by his blood;
6 Li fè nou tounen wa ak prèt pou n' sèvi Bondye Papa li. Se pou li tout lwanj ak tout otorite pou tout tan. Amèn. (aiōn g165)
and he made us to be a Kingdom, priests to his God and Father; to him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
7 Gade. Men Kris la ap vini sou tèt nwaj yo! Tout moun pral wè l', menm moun ki te pèse l' yo. Tout pèp sou latè pral kriye lè y'a wè li. Wi, se konsa sa pral pase. Amèn.
Look, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen.
8 Mwen se konmansman, mwen se finisman tankou A ak Z. Se Bondye, Mèt ki gen tout pouvwa a, ki di sa, li menm ki la, ki te toujou la epi ki gen pou vini an.
"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."
9 Mwen menm, Jan, mwen se frè nou. M'ap pataje tout bagay ak nou, kit se soufrans nou, kit se gouvènman Bondye ki wa a, kit se pasians Jezi ban nou an. Yo te ban mwen yon lil yo rele Patmòs pou prizon paske mwen t'ap fè konnen pawòl Bondye a ansanm ak verite Jezi te moutre a.
I John, your brother and fellow-partner with you in persecution, Kingdom, and patient endurance in Jesus, was on the island that is called Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.
10 Yon jou dimanch, jou Mèt la menm, Lespri Bondye a pran m', mwen tande yon gwo vwa dèyè do m' ki sonnen tankou yon klewon.
I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, like a trumpet
11 Li di m' konsa: Tou sa ou wè, ekri yo nan yon liv. Voye liv la bay sèt legliz ki nan sèt lavil sa yo: Efèz, Esmen, Pègam, Tiyati, Sad, Filadèlfi ak Lawodise.
saying, "What you see, write on a scroll and send to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and to Laodicea."
12 M' vire pou m' wè ki moun ki t'ap pale avè m' lan. Lè sa a, mwen wè sèt gwo lanp sèt branch an lò kanpe,
I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. Having turned, I saw seven golden lampstands.
13 ak nan mitan yo yon moun ki te sanble ak yon gason. Li te gen yon gwo rad sou li byen long ki te bat jouk sou pie l', ak yon sentiwon an lò mare sou lestonmak li.
And among the lampstands was one like a son of man, clothed with a robe reaching down to his feet, and with a golden sash around his chest.
14 Cheve nan tèt li te tankou lenn mouton, blan kou koton. Je l' yo menm te tankou de flanm dife.
His head and his hair were white as white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire.
15 Pie l' yo te klere tankou kwiv yo poli apre yo fin chofe l' nan fòj. Lè l' pale menm, vwa l' te tankou bri gwo dlo k'ap sot tonbe nan yon falèz.
His feet were like burnished bronze, as if it had been refined in a furnace. His voice was like the voice of many waters.
16 Li te gen sèt zetwal nan men dwat li ak yon nepe file de bò k'ap soti nan bouch li. Figi l' menm te klere tankou gwo solèy midi.
He had seven stars in his right hand. Out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest.
17 Lè mwen wè l', mwen tonbe nan pie l' tankou yon moun ki mouri. Li mete men dwat li sou mwen, li di m' konsa: Ou pa bezwen pè! Se mwen ki premie, se mwen ki dènye.
When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He laid his right hand on me, saying, "Do not be afraid. I am the first and the last,
19 Ekri tou sa ou wè a: ni sa k'ap pase koulye a, ni sa ki gen pou rive apre.
Write therefore the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will happen hereafter;
20 Men sans kache sèt zetwal ou wè nan men dwat mwen an, ansanm ak sans sèt gwo lanp sèt branch lò yo. Sèt zetwal yo se zanj sèt legliz yo. Sèt gwo lanp sèt branch yo, se sèt legliz yo.
the mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches. The seven lampstands are seven churches.
