II Corinthians 1

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints which are in all Achaia:

Mwen menm Pòl, yon moun Bondye menm te deside rele pou sèvi apòt Jezikri, ansanm ak frè nou Timote, m'ap ekri nou tout ki nan legliz Bondye a nan lavil Korent ansanm ak tout pèp Bondye a ki nan tout peyi Lakayi.

Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

Nou mande Bondye, papa nou, ansanm ak Jezikri, Seyè nou an, pou yo ban nou benediksyon ak kè poze.

Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;

Ann fè lwanj Bondye ki papa Jezikri, Seyè nou an, Papa ki gen kè sansib la, Bondye ki toujou la pou ban nou ankourajman an.

Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

Li ankouraje nou nan tout lapenn nou, konsa nou menm tou nou ka ankouraje moun ki nan tout kalite lapenn lè n'a ba yo menm ankourajman nou te resevwa nan men li an.

For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.

Menm jan nou soufri ak Kris la nan tout soufrans li yo, konsa tou, gremesi Kris la, nou resevwa yon gwo ankourajman.

And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.

Si mwen menm mwen nan lapenn, se pou nou menm, moun Korent yo, nou ka resevwa ankourajman pou nou ka delivre. Si mwen menm mwen resevwa ankourajman, se pou nou menm nou ka ankouraje, pou nou ka resevwa fòs kouraj pou sipòte avèk pasyans soufrans mwen menm m'ap sipòte a.

And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.

Se konsa, mwen gen fèm espwa sa a pou nou, moun Korent, paske mwen konn sa byen, menm jan nou soufri ansanm avè m' nan tout lapenn mwen yo, konsa tou n'a resevwa pa nou nan ankourajman Bondye ap ban mwen an.

For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life:

Mwen ta renmen, frè m' yo, nou konnen anba ki kalite soufrans mwen te ye nan pwovens Lazi a. Sa te rèd nèt. Mwen pa t' kapab sipòte ankò. Mwen te menm kwè mwen pa t'ap soti vivan.

But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead:

Mwen te santi yo te dèyè pou yo te touye mwen. Tou sa rive m' pou m' te aprann pa mete konfyans mwen sou fòs kouraj pa mwen, men pou m' te ka mete tout konfyans mwen nan Bondye ki fè moun mouri leve.

Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us;

Se li menm ki delivre m' anba tout gwo danje lanmò sa yo. Se li menm k'ap toujou la pou delivre m'. Wi, mwen gen espwa l'ap toujou delivre mwen,

Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.

depi nou menm moun Korent nou ban m' ankourajman, nou lapriyè pou mwen. Se konsa Bondye va tande tout lapriyè sa yo n'ap fè pou mwen, la ban mwen benediksyon l', anpil moun va di l' mèsi pou mwen.

For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.

Men rezon ki fè m' kontan ak tèt mwen anpil konsa: Konsyans mwen pa repwoche m' anyen pou jan m' te mennen tèt mwen byen nan mitan tout moun, ak kè ouvè, san ipokrizi, sitou nan mitan nou menm, moun Korent, jan Bondye vle l' la. Paske, sa se travay favè Bondye a, se pa t' bon konprann lèzòm ki t'ap dirije mwen.

For we write none other things unto you, than what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end;

Nan tout lèt mwen ekri, mwen pa janm di lòt bagay pase sa nou ka li ak sa nou ka konprann. Mwen gen espwa nou ka rive konprann nèt

As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also are ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.

sa nou poko fin konprann koulye a: konsa, lè jou Seyè Jezi a va rive, nou ka kontan m' anpil, menm jan mwen menm m'a kontan nou tou.

And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye might have a second benefit;

Mwen te sitèlman gen konfyans sou pwen sa a, mwen te kòmanse fè lide ale lakay nou pou nou te ka resevwa benediksyon Bondye a de fwa.

And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.

Men wi, mwen te fè lide pase lakay nou sou wout mwen lè mwen t'aprale Masedwan, epi pou nou te resevwa m' ankò lè m'ap tounen soti la. Nou ta ka ede m' lè sa a kontinye vwayaj mwen pou peyi Jide.

When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea yea, and nay nay?

Lè m' te fè lide sa a, èske mwen te twò prese? Lè m'ap pran yon desizyon, èske se avantaj pa m' m'ap chache tankou tout moun kifè m' ta gen de pawòl?

But as God is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay.

Mwen pran Bondye ki gen yon sèl pawòl la pou temwen, pwomès mwen te fè nou an, se pa t' yon wi ak yon non anmenmtan.

For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea.

Paske, mwen menm, Silas ak Timote, nou pa t' anonse nou Jezikri, Pitit Bondye a, tankou yon moun ki gen de pawòl. Okontrè, se wi ase Jezikri di pou Bondye.

For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.

Paske se li menm ki fè nou wè tout pwomès Bondye yo se verite. Se poutèt sa tou, gremesi Jezikri, nou ka di amèn lè n'ap fè lwanj Bondye.

Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God;

Se Bondye menm ki kenbe m' fèm, ansanm ak nou tout, nan lavi n'ap mennen nan Kris la. Se li menm ki mete nou apa pou li,

Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

li menm ki make nou ak letanp li, ki mete Sentespri nan kè nou tankou yon garanti pou tou sa li sere pou nou.

Moreover I call God for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth.

Mwen pran Bondye pou temwen sou lavi m': se pou m' te ka menaje nou kifè mwen chanje lide, mwen pa rive Korent.

Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.

Mwen p'ap chache fòse nou kwè anyen, paske nou deja kanpe fèm nan lafwa. Men, mwen ta renmen travay ansanm ak nou pou fè kè nou kontan.
