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.
The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, to show to his servants what must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it 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 bore witness of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, —of whatever 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 that readeth, and they that hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things written therein; for the time is at hand.
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 which are in Asia: Grace be to you, and peace, from him who is, and who was, and who is to come; and from the seven spirits which 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 first-born of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him that loveth us, and washed us from our sins in his own 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 made us a kingdom, priests to God his Father, to him be the glory and the dominion for 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.
Behold, he cometh with the clouds, and every eye shall see him, and they who pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall wail because of 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, saith the Lord God, he 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 companion in the affliction and kingdom and endurance in Jesus, was in the isle that is called Patmos, on account 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, as of 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 thou seest, write in a book, and send it to the seven churches; to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamus, and to Thyatira, and to Sardes, and to 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,
And I turned to see the voice that was speaking with me; and having turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks,
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 in the midst of the candlesticks one like to a son of man, clothed with a garment reaching down to the feet, and girded at the breasts with a golden girdle.
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 hairs were white as white wool, as snow; and his eyes were as 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.
and his feet were like fine brass, as if burning in a furnace; and his voice was as the sound 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.
And he had in his right hand seven stars; and out of his mouth went a sharp two-edged sword; and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
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.
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead; and he laid his right hand on me, saying, Fear not; 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 thou sawest, and the things which are, and the things which shall be after these;
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 thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches; and the seven candlesticks are the seven churches.
