Revelasyon 1
1 Revelasyon a Jésus Kri, ke Bondye te bay Li pou montre a sèvitè Li yo; bagay ki t ap oblije rive avan lontan yo, ke Li te voye kominike pa zanj Li, a sèvitè Li, Jean,
The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John,
2 ki te temwaye pawòl Bondye a, ak temwayaj Jésus Kri a, menm a tout sa li te wè yo.
who testified to the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ, even to all that he saw.
3 Beni se sila ki li e sila ki tande pawòl pwofesi sila yo, e ki prete atansyon a bagay ki ekri ladann yo. Paske tan an pwòch.
Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy and keep what is written in it, for the time is near.
4 Jean, a sèt legliz ki an Asie yo: Gras pou nou ak lapè, ki soti nan Sila ki la, ki te la, e ki va vini an; ki soti anplis nan sèt lespri ki devan twòn Li an;
John to the seven churches in Asia: Grace to you and peace from God, who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before his throne,
5 e nan Jésus Kri, temwen fidèl la, premye ne de lanmò a, e chèf a wa latè yo. A Sila ki renmen nou an, ki te libere nou de peche nou yo pa san Li—
and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us and washed us from our sins with his blood
6 epi Li te fè nou vin yon Wayòm, prèt a Bondye e Papa Li a. A Li menm laglwa, ak règn pou tout tan e pou tout tan. Amen. (aiōn g165)
and made us to be a kingdom, priests to his God and Father—to him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
7 Gade byen, l ap vini avèk nwaj yo, e tout zye va wè L, menm sila ki te pèse L yo. Tout tribi sou latè yo va fè gwo lamantasyon sou Li. Se konsa l ap fèt. Amen.
Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all the tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. So shall it be! Amen.
8 “Mwen se Alfa a e Omega a,” di Senyè Bondye a: “Sila ki la, ki te la, e ki va vini an, Toupwisan 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, Jean, frè nou, ki patisipe avèk nou nan tribilasyon, wayòm, ak pèseverans ki nan Jésus a, te sou lil ki rele Patmos la, akoz pawòl a Bondye ak temwayaj de Jésus a.
I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation, kingdom, and endurance that are in Christ Jesus, was on the island called Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ.
10 Mwen te nan Lespri a nan jou Senyè a, e mwen te tande dèyè m yon gwo vwa tankou son a yon twonpèt,
I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice like that of a trumpet,
11 ki t ap di: “Ekri nan yon liv sa ou wè a, e voye l nan sèt legliz yo; nan Éphèse, Smyrne, Pergame, Thyatire, Sardes, Philadelphie ak Laodicée.”
saying, “Write what yoʋ see in a book and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea.”
12 Alò, mwen te vire pou wè vwa ki t ap pale avè m nan. Epi nan vire, mwen te wè sèt chandelye ki fèt an lò.
Then I turned in that direction to see the voice that was speaking to me. And when I turned, I saw seven golden lampstands,
13 Nan mitan chandelye yo, mwen te wè yon moun tankou yon fis a lòm, abiye nan yon wòb ki rive jis nan pye, e mare lestonmak li ak yon sentiwon an lò.
and in the midst of the seven lampstands I saw one like a son of man, clothed with a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash wrapped around his chest.
14 Tèt Li ak cheve Li te blan tankou lèn blanch, tankou lanèj. Zye li te tankou yon flanm dife.
His head and his hair were white like wool, as white as snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire,
15 Pye Li te tankou bwonz cho lè l chofe nan fou, epi vwa l te tankou bri anpil dlo.
his feet were like burnished bronze refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the roar of many waters.
16 Nan men dwat Li, Li te kenbe sèt etwal. Yon nepe file de bò te sòti nan bouch Li. Figi Li te tankou solèy k ap briye nan pwisans li.
In his right hand he held seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in its strength.
17 Lè m te wè Li, mwen te tonbe nan pye Li tankou yon moun mouri. Li te poze men dwat Li sou mwen, e te di: “Pa pè; Mwen se premye ak dènye a,
When I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. But he placed his right hand on me and said, “Do not be afraid. I am the first and the last,
19 “Konsa, ekri bagay ke ou gen tan wè yo, bagay ki la yo, ak bagay ki va rive pi devan an.
Therefore write what yoʋ have seen, what is now and what will take place after this.
20 Pou mistè a sèt zetwal ke ou te wè nan men dwat Mwen an, ak sèt chandelye yo: Men li: sèt zetwal yo, se zanj a sèt legliz yo, e sèt chandelye yo, se sèt legliz yo.”
This is the mystery of the seven stars that yoʋ saw in my right hand and the seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.
