2 Corinthians 11
1 Would that ye would bear with me [in] a little folly; but indeed bear with me.
Mwen swete ke nou ta ban mwen pèmisyon pou yon ti foli; men anfèt nou ban mwen l deja.
2 For I am jealous as to you with a jealousy [which is] of God; for I have espoused you unto one man, to present [you] a chaste virgin to Christ.
Paske mwen jalou pou nou avèk yon jalouzi ki sòti nan Bondye. Paske mwen te fyanse nou ak yon mari, pou m ta kapab prezante nou a Kris kòm yon vyèj ki san tach.
3 But I fear lest by any means, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craft, [so] your thoughts should be corrupted from simplicity as to the Christ.
Men mwen pè pou menm jan ke Eve te twonpe pa riz sèpan an, pou panse nou ta de yon fason oubyen yon lòt detounen de devosyon sensè e san tach de Kris la.
4 For if indeed he that comes preaches another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or ye get a different Spirit, which ye have not got, or a different glad tidings, which ye have not received, ye might well bear with [it].
Paske si yon moun vini pou preche yon lòt Jésus, ke nou menm pa t preche, oswa nou resevwa yon lòt lespri ke nou pa t resevwa, oswa yon lòt levanjil ke nou pa t aksepte, nou ase tolere sa.
5 For I reckon that in nothing I am behind those who are in surpassing degree apostles.
Paske mwen pa konsidere tèt mwen kòm enferyè a pi gran apot yo.
6 But if [I am] a simple person in speech, yet not in knowledge, but in everything making [the truth] manifest in all things to you.
Men menmsi mwen manke abil nan pale, deja mwen pa konsa nan konesans. Anfèt, nan tout aspè, sa te deja fèt klè de nou tout, nan tout bagay.
7 Have I committed sin, abasing myself in order that ye might be exalted, because I gratuitously announced to you the glad tidings of God?
Oubyen èske mwen te fè yon peche lè m te aksepte imilye tèt mwen pou nou menm ta kapab egzalte, paske m te preche levanjil Bondye a nou menm san frè?
8 I spoiled other assemblies, receiving hire for ministry towards you.
Okontrè, mwen te vòlè lòt legliz yo lè m te pran kòb soutyen lan nan men yo pou sèvi nou.
9 And being present with you and lacking, I did not lazily burden any one, (for the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied what I lacked, ) and in everything I kept myself from being a burden to you, and will keep myself.
Lè m te prezan avèk nou nan nesesite, mwen pa t devni yon chaj pou okenn moun; paske lè frè yo te vini sòti Macédoine, yo te satisfè tout bezwen m yo, e nan tout bagay mwen te kenbe tèt mwen pou mwen pa t vin yon chaj pou nou menm, e m va kontinye fè menm bagay la.
10 [The] truth of Christ is in me that this boasting shall not be stopped as to me in the regions of Achaia.
Jan verite Kris la nan mwen an vante tèt mwen an p ap tèmine fèt nan zòn Achaïe yo.
11 Why? because I do not love you? God knows.
Poukisa? Paske mwen pa renmen nou? Bondye konnen ke m renmen nou!
12 But what I do, I will also do, that I may cut off the opportunity of those wishing [for] an opportunity, that wherein they boast they may be found even as we.
Men m ap kontinye fè sa ke m ap fè a pou m kapab rachte okazyon de sila yo ki vle twouve yon okazyon pou moun konsidere yo egal avèk nou nan bagay ke y ap vante tèt yo.
13 For such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ.
Paske moun konsa yo se fo apot yo ye, ouvriye twonpè k ap degize tèt yo tankou apot a Kris yo.
14 And [it is] not wonderful, for Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.
Sa pa yon gwo sipriz, paske menm Satan degize tèt li tankou yon zanj limyè.
15 It is no great thing therefore if his ministers also transform themselves as ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
Konsa, se pa yon sipriz si sèvitè li yo degize tèt yo tankou sèvitè ladwati Bondye yo, ki va tèmine menm jan kon pwòp zèv pa yo.
16 Again I say, Let not any one think me to be a fool; but if otherwise, receive me then even as a fool, that I also may boast myself some little.
Ankò mwen di, ke pèsòn pa panse ke mwen fou. Men si nou panse sa, resevwa m menm tankou moun fou, pou mwen tou kapab vante tèt mwen tou piti.
17 What I speak I do not speak according to [the] Lord, but as in folly, in this confidence of boasting.
Sa m ap di a, mwen p ap di li jan Senyè a ta pale, men yon jan fou, konsi, m ap vante tèt mwen an.
18 Since many boast according to flesh, I also will boast.
Akoz ke anpil moun vante tèt yo selon lachè, mwen va vante tèt mwen konsa tou.
19 For ye bear fools readily, being wise.
Men nou menm ki tèlman saj, tolere foli a avèk kè kontan.
20 For ye bear if any one bring you into bondage, if any one devour [you], if any one get [your money], if any one exalt himself, if any one beat you on the face.
Paske nou tolere li si yon moun fè nou esklav, si yon moun devore nou, si yon moun pran avantaj de nou, si yon moun egzalte tèt li, menm si yon moun bannou kou nan figi.
21 I speak as to dishonour, as though we had been weak; but wherein any one is daring, (I speak in folly, ) I also am daring.
Nan wont mwen, mwen oblije di ke nou te twò fèb pa konparezon. Men nan nenpòt bagay respekte nenpòt lòt moun se plen ak kouraj (mwen pale ak foli), mwen menm, mwen gen kouraj menm jan an.
22 Are they Hebrews? I also. Are they Israelites? I also. Are they seed of Abraham? I also.
Èske se Ebre yo ye? Mwen menm tou, mwen Ebre. Èske se Izrayelit yo ye? Mwen menm tou, mwen se Izrayelit. Èske se desandan Abraham yo ye? Mwen menm tou.
23 Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as being beside myself) I above measure [so]; in labours exceedingly abundant, in stripes to excess, in prisons exceedingly abundant, in deaths oft.
Èske se sèvitè a Kris yo ye? (Mwen pale tankou moun fou) Mwen menm tou, plis nan travay, bokou plis nan pran prizon. Mwen te bat depase mezi, mwen te souvan nan danje lanmò.
24 From the Jews five times have I received forty [stripes], save one.
Senk fwa mwen te resevwa nan men Jwif yo trant-nèf kout fwèt.
25 Thrice have I been scourged, once I have been stoned, three times I have suffered shipwreck, a night and day I passed in the deep:
Twa fwa mwen te bat avèk baton, yon fwa mwen te lapide avèk wòch, twa fwa mwen te nan bato ki kraze nan lanmè, yon jou ak yon nwit mwen te pase nan fon lanmè.
26 in journeyings often, in perils of rivers, in perils of robbers, in perils from [my own] race, in perils from [the] nations, in perils in [the] city, in perils in [the] desert, in perils on [the] sea, in perils among false brethren;
Souvan mwen te fè vwayaj, an danje nan rivyè, danje ak vòlè, danje ak pwòp moun peyi mwen, danje ak moun etranje yo danje nan vil yo, danje nan dezè, danje sou lanmè, e danje pami fo frè yo.
27 in labour and toil, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
Mwen te nan travay, nan sikonstans difisil, nan anpil nwit san dòmi, nan grangou ak swaf, souvan san manje, nan fredi e san rad.
28 Besides those things that are without, the crowd [of cares] pressing on me daily, the burden of all the assemblies.
Apa kondisyon ekstèn sa yo, gen fòs opresyon chak jou sou mwen pou sousi mwen gen pou tout legliz yo.
29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is stumbled, and I burn not?
Kilès ki vin fèb, san m pa fèb tou? Kilès ki lage nan peche, san gwo sousi mwen.
30 If it is needful to boast, I will boast in the things which concern my infirmity.
Si mwen dwe vante tèt mwen, m ap vante tèt mwen de sa ki apatyen a feblès mwen.
31 The God and Father of the Lord Jesus knows — he who is blessed for ever — that I do not lie. (aiōn g165)
Bondye e Papa a Senyè a Jésus Li menm ki beni pou tout tan an, konnen ke m p ap bay manti. (aiōn g165)
32 In Damascus the ethnarch of Aretas the king kept the city of the Damascenes shut up, wishing to take me;
Nan Damas gouvènè anba Arétas, wa a t ap veye vil moun Damas yo pou l te kapab sezi mwen.
33 and through a window in a basket I was let down by the wall, and escaped his hands.
Se konsa mwen te kite lòt moun desann mwen nan yon panyen pa fenèt nan mi an, e se konsa m te chape nan men li.
