< 2 Korint 7 >
1 Konsa, paske nou gen pwomès sa yo byeneme, annou netwaye tèt nou de tout salte lachè ak lespri, e vin konplete lasentete nan lakrent Bondye.
Because then we have these promises, my beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all impurity of the flesh and of the spirit, and accomplish sanctification in the fear of Aloha.
2 Fè espas pou nou nan kè nou. Nou pa t fè pèsòn mal. Nou pa t fè pèsòn vin konwonpi, ni nou pa t pran avantaj sou okenn moun.
Bear with us, my brethren; we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have injured no man.
3 Mwen pa pale pou kondane nou, paske Mwen te di avan sa, nou nan kè nou jis nou rive mouri ansanm e viv ansanm.
I speak not to your condemnation; for I have said already, that you are laid up in our hearts to die together and to live.
4 Konfyans mwen gen nan nou an gran. Fyète m lè m nonmen non nou an gran. Mwen ranpli avèk rekonfò. M ap debòde avèk lajwa nan tout afliksyon nou yo.
GREAT is the freedom I have with you, and great in you is my glorying; I am full of consolation, and my joy greatly aboundeth in me in all my afflictions.
5 Paske menm lè nou te vini Macédoine, chè nou pa t gen okenn repo, men nou te aflije toupatou: konfli deyò, laperèz anndan.
When, also, we had come into Makedunia, no repose had we for our body, but in every thing were we afflicted; without fighting, and within, fear.
6 Men Bondye, ki rekonfòte sila k ap viv nan afliksyon yo, te rekonfòte nou lè Tite te vini an.
But Aloha, who consoleth the humble, consoled us by the coming of Titos;
7 Pa sèlman vini li an, men osi pa rekonfò avèk sila li te rekonfòte nou an, lè li te bannou rapò de dezi nou genyen an, tristès nou, zèl ke nou te gen pou mwen an; pou m te rejwi plis toujou.
and not only by his coming, but also by his refreshment wherewith he had been refreshed among you. For he told us of your love toward us, and of your lamentation and your zeal on our behalf. And when I heard, my joy was great.
8 Paske malgre ke m te koze tristès pa lèt mwen an, mwen pa regrèt sa; sepandan mwen te regrèt li. Paske mwen wè ke lèt sa a te koze tristès nou, malgre sèlman pou yon ti tan.
For though I grieved you in an epistle, I repent me not, though I did repent. For I perceive how that epistle, though for an hour, did make you sorry;
9 Koulye a, mwen rejwi, pa paske mwen te fè nou tris, men ke nou te vin tris jis pou mennen nou a larepantans. Paske mwen te fè nou tris selon volonte Bondye, jis pou nou pa ta soufri pèt nan okenn bagay akoz nou menm.
but now I exercise joy, not because you were made sorry, but because your sorrow hath brought you to repentance. For you were sorry towards Aloha; so that in nothing will you suffer loss from us.
10 Paske tristès ki selon volonte Bondye a prodwi yon repantans ki san regrè, ki mennen nan sali; men tristès a mond lan prodwi lanmò.
For the sorrow that is for the sake of Aloha worketh soul-penitence, which turneth not and converteth, unto salvation; but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
11 Paske gade byen avèk ki senserite menm bagay sa a, tristès sa ki sòti nan Bondye a, te vin prodwi nan nou. Kèl jistifikasyon pou nou menm, kèl endiyasyon, kèl krent, kèl dezi, kèl zèl, kèl retribisyon kont lemal. Nan tout bagay nou te montre a tèt nou, nou inosan nan zafè sila a.
For, behold, (in) this very (case) that you were made contrite for the sake of Aloha; what carefulness it wrought in you, and vindication, and displeasure, and fear, and love, and zeal, and punishment! And by every thing have you shown yourselves to be pure in this matter.
12 Donk, malgre m te ekri nou, se pa t pou koz a sila ki te fè ofans lan, ni pou koz a sila ki te donmaje a, men pou Bondye ta kapab konfime nan ou senserite ou anvè nou menm.
But, it was for this we wrote to you; not on account of the injurer, nor on account of the injured one, but that you may know before Aloha our carefulness over you.
13 Pou rezon sa a, nou te rekonfòte. Epi anplis de rekonfò nou, nou te rejwi menm plis pou lajwa a Tite, paske lespri li te vin rafrechi pa nou tout.
For this cause we were consoled, and with our consolation more abundantly did we rejoice in the joy of Titos; because his spirit had been refreshed with you all.
14 Paske si nan yon bagay mwen te fè nou konpliman a li menm, nou pa t fè m wont. Men menm jan ke nou te pale tout bagay anverite a nou menm nan, menm jan an osi tout konpliman nou te pale Tite de nou te vin fè prèv ke se te verite.
Because in whatever I had boasted to him concerning you, I have not been ashamed; but, as of every thing we had spoken truth with you, so also our boasting unto Titos hath been found in truth.
15 Afeksyon Li anvè nou ap vin plis toujou lè li sonje obeyisans nou tout, jan nou te resevwa li avèk lakrent e avèk tranbleman.
And his affection is greatly enlarged toward you, when he remembers your obedience; because with fear and with trembling you received him.
16 Mwen rejwi ke nan tout bagay mwen gen konfyans nan nou.
I rejoice that in every thing I can confide in you.
