2 Korint 1
1 Paul, yon apot Kris Jésus pa volonte Bondye, e Timothée, frè nou, a legliz Bondye ki nan Corinthe lan, avèk tout sen ki toupatou nan vil Achaïe yo:
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in the whole of Achaia:
2 Lagras avèk nou ak lapè ki sòti nan Bondye, Papa nou an, ak Senyè a Jésus Kri.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Beni se Bondye ak Papa a Senyè nou an Jésus Kri, Papa a mizerikòd yo, e Bondye a tout rekonfò yo;
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort;
4 ki rekonfòte nou nan tout afliksyon nou yo pou nou kapab rekonfòte sila ki nan nenpòt afliksyon avèk menm rekonfò ke nou menm te rekonfòte pa Bondye a.
who comforts us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
5 Paske menm jan ke soufrans a Kris yo se pou nou an abondans, konsa tou rekonfò nou an abondans atravè Kris la.
For as the sufferings of Christ abound to us, even so our comfort also abounds through Christ.
6 Men si nou aflije, se pou rekonfò ak sali de nou menm. Si nou rekonfòte, se pou rekonfò pa nou, ki efikas pou nou ka sipòte avèk pasyans, menm soufrans ke nou menm isit la ap soufri yo tou.
But if we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation. If we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you the patient enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer.
7 Konsa, espwa nou pou ou tout fonde byen fèm paske nou konnen menm jan ke ou pataje soufrans nou yo avèk nou, ou menm tou ap pataje rekonfò nou yo.
Our hope for you is steadfast, knowing that, since you are partakers of the sufferings, so also are you of the comfort.
8 Paske nou pa vle nou inyoran, frè m yo, de afliksyon ki te vini sou nou an Asie yo, ke nou te peze anpil anpil, menm depase fòs nou, pou nou te kab menm vin dezespere de lavi nou.
For we do not desire to have you uninformed, brothers, concerning our affliction which happened in Asia, that we were weighed down exceedingly, beyond our power, so much that we despaired even of life.
9 Vrèman, nou te gen yon kondanasyon lanmò anndan nou, pou nou pa mete konfyans nan tèt nou, men nan Bondye ki fè mò yo leve a,
Yes, we ourselves have had the sentence of death within ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead,
10 ki te delivre nou soti de yon si gran danje lanmò, e Li va delivre nou. Se sou Li menm nou te mete tout espwa nou an. Epi Li va toujou delivre nou;
who delivered us out of so great a death, and he will deliver us. On him we have set our hope that he will also deliver us again;
11 nou osi ki jwenn avèk nou menm nan lapriyè, pou remèsiman kapab bay pa anpil moun pou nou, pou gras ke nou resevwa atravè priyè anpil moun.
you also helping together on our behalf by your petition; that, for the gift bestowed on us by means of many, thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf.
12 Paske konfyans fyète nou an se sa; temwayaj konsyans nou, ke nan sentete avèk senserite anvè Bondye, pa nan sajès lachè men nan gras Bondye a, nou kondwi tèt nou nan mond lan, e sitou vè nou menm.
For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience, that with pure motives and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God we conducted ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you.
13 Paske nou pa ekri okenn lòt bagay bannou, sof ke sa nou kapab li ak konprann, e m espere ke nou va konprann jiska lafen.
For we write no other things to you, than what you read or even acknowledge, and I hope you will fully acknowledge;
14 Menm jan ou te osi konprann nou nan yon pati a, ke ou se rezon fyète nou nan jou a Senyè nou an Jésus, menm jan tou ke ou se rezon fyète pa nou an.
as also you acknowledged us in part, that we are your boasting, even as you also are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus.
15 Epi premyèman, se te nan konfyans sila ke m te gen entansyon pou vin kote nou an, pou nou ta kapab resevwa yon benediksyon doub.
In this confidence, I was determined to come first to you, that you might have a second benefit;
16 Sa vle di, pou pase kote nou nan antre Macédoine, e osi nan soti Macédoine pou m vin kote nou, pou nou ta kapab ede m nan vwayaj mwen pou rive Judée.
and by you to pass into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and to be sent forward by you on my journey to Judea.
17 Konsa, èske m te varye lè m te fè nou konnen entansyon sa a? Oswa sa ke m te propoze a, èske m te propoze li selon lachè? Konsa, li ta sanble wi e non ansanm k ap di nan menm lè a?
When I therefore was planning this, did I do it lightly? Or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be the "Yes, yes" and the "No, no?"
18 Men jan Bondye fidèl la, pawòl nou anvè ou menm se pa wi avèk non ansanm.
But as God is faithful, our word toward you is not "Yes and no."
19 Paske Fis Bondye a, Kris Jésus, ki te preche pami nou an, pa nou menm—mwen, Silvain, ak Timothée—pa t di wi e non, men te gen wi sèlman nan Li menm.
For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, by me, Silvanus, and Timothy, was not "Yes and no," but in him is "Yes."
20 Paske malgre fòs kantite pwomès Bondye yo kon bay, nan Li menm, pwomès yo se “wi”; konsa tou, pa Li menm tou, nou di “Amèn” pou laglwa Bondye atravè nou menm.
For however many are the promises of God, in him they are "Yes." Therefore also through him they are "Amen," to the glory of God through us.
21 Koulye a, Sila ki etabli nou avèk ou menm an Kris, epi ki te onksyone nou, se Bondye.
Now he who establishes us with you in Christ, and anointed us, is God;
22 Se Li ki te mete so Li sou nou e te bannou Lespri a nan kè nou kòm yon pwomès.
who also sealed us, and gave us the down payment of the Spirit in our hearts.
23 Men mwen rele Bondye kòm temwen nanm mwen, ke se sèl pou m fè nou gras, m pa t vin Corinthe ankò.
But I call God as a witness to my soul, that to spare you I did not come again to Corinth.
24 Se pa ke nou menm ta domine fwa pa nou, men se ouvriye nou ye ansanm avèk ou pou lajwa ou. Paske nan lafwa a, ou deja kanpe fèm.
Not that we rule over your faith, but are fellow workers with you for your joy. For you stand firm in faith.
