I Timothy 4

Lespri Bondye te di sa byen klè: nan dènye tan an, gen moun k'ap lage konfyans yo nan Bondye. Yo pral obeyi yon bann lespri k'ap bay manti, yo pral swiv yon bann pawòl ki soti nan move lespri yo.

Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

Y'ap kite yon bann moun ipokrit fè yo pèdi tèt yo ak manti. Konsyans moun sa yo fini, ou ta di yo boule ak yon fè cho.

Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

Y'ap plede di sa pa bon pou moun marye, gen kalite manje moun pa gen dwa manje. Men, se Bondye ki kreye manje sa yo pou moun ki gen konfyans nan li epi ki rive konn verite a ka manje lè yo fin di Bondye mèsi.

Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

Tou sa Bondye kreye bon. Nou pa fèt pou nou voye yo jete. Se pou nou asepte tout bagay san nou pa janm bliye di Bondye mèsi.

For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:

Se pawòl Bondye a ak lapriyè nou fè a k'ap mete yo apa pou Bondye.

For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

Si ou moutre frè ou yo tout bagay sa yo, ou va yon bon sèvitè Jezikri. Wa swen tèt ou ak pawòl ki soti nan konfyans Bondye ak nan verite w'ap swiv deja a.

If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.

Men, wete lide ou sou istwa san sans ki pa dakò ak konfyans nan Bondye, ak sou radòt ki pa merite repete. Toujou chache mwayen pou ou sèvi Bondye pi byen.

But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.

Si nan yon sans sa bon pou nou chache fè espò pou kenbe kò nou anfòm, sa pi bon toujou, epi nan tout sans, pou nou fè jefò nan sèvis Bondye a, paske sa ap garanti nou lavi pou koulye a ak pou tout tan.

For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.

Sa se yon pawòl ki sèten, tout moun te dwe asepte l', yo tout te dwe kwè li.

This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.

Se poutèt sa ou wè n'ap travay di, n'ap goumen konsa. Paske, nou mete tout espwa nou nan Bondye vivan an k'ap sove tout moun, espesyalman moun ki gen konfyans nan li.

For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.

Se tout bagay sa yo pou ou moutre moun yo, pou ou mande yo swiv.

These things command and teach.

Pa kite pesonn pase ou nan betiz paske ou twò jenn. Men, se pou ou tounen yon egzanp pou moun ki kwè yo, nan jan ou pale, nan jan ou mennen tèt ou, nan jan ou gen renmen, nan jan ou gen konfyans, nan jan w'ap mennen yon lavi ki dakò ak volonte Bondye.

Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

Pandan w'ap tann mwen vini an, pa janm sispann li Liv la pou tout moun. Ankouraje frè yo, moutre yo tout bagay.

Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.

Pa neglije kado Lespri Bondye te ba ou lè chèf reskonsab yo te mete men sou tèt ou, apre pwofèt yo te fin pale pou ou.

Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.

Fè travay sa a ak anpil swen, bay tout tan ou pou li, pou tout moun ka wè jan w'ap fè pwogrè.

Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.

Veye sou konpòtman ou, fè atansyon ak pawòl verite w'ap anonse a. Pa lage travay ou menm. Si ou fè sa konsa, wa sove tèt ou ansanm ak tout moun k'ap koute ou yo.

Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.
