Revelation 2
1 “To the angel of the assembly in Ephesus write: “He who holds the seven stars in his right hand, he who walks among the seven golden lamp stands says these things:
Ekri zanj legliz ki nan lavil Efèz la. Di l' konsa: Moun ki kenbe sèt zetwal yo nan men dwat li a, moun k'ap mache nan mitan sèt gwo lanp sèt branch lò yo, men sa li voye di ou:
2 “I know your works, and your toil and perseverance, and that you can’t tolerate evil men, and have tested those who call themselves apostles, and they are not, and found them false.
Mwen konnen tou sa w'ap fè, jan ou travay di, jan ou gen pasians. Mwen konnen tou ou pa ka sipòte mechan yo: ou sonde tout moun sa yo k'ap pran pòz apòt yo. Ou dekouvri se mantò yo ye.
3 You have perseverance and have endured for my name’s sake, and have not grown weary.
Ou gen anpil pasians, ou soufri anpil poutèt mwen. Ou pa dekouraje.
4 But I have this against you, that you left your first love.
Men, men repwòch mwen gen pou m' fè ou: Koulye a ou pa renmen m' jan ou te renmen m' anvan an.
5 Remember therefore from where you have fallen, and repent and do the first works; or else I am coming to you swiftly, and will move your lamp stand out of its place, unless you repent.
Chonje kote ou te ye anvan ou tonbe a, tounen vin jwenn Bondye. Reprann lavi ou t'ap mennen anvan an. Si ou pa tounen vin jwenn Bondye, m'ap vini kote ou ye a, m'ap wete chandelie ou la nan plas kote l' ye a.
6 But this you have, that you hate the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
Men, malgre sa, ou gen kichòy ki bon: ou pa vle wè sa bann Nikolayit yo ap fè a. Mwen menm tou, mwen pa vle wè yo.
7 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of my God.
Se pou moun ki gen zòrèy pou yo tande tande sa Lespri Bondye a ap di legliz yo! Tout moun ki va goumen jouk yo genyen batay la, m'ap ba yo dwa pou yo manje nan piebwa ki bay lavi a, piebwa ki nan mitan jaden Bondye a.
8 “To the angel of the assembly in Smyrna write: “The first and the last, who was dead, and has come to life says these things:
Ekri zanj legliz ki nan lavil Esmen lan. Di l' konsa: Moun ki premie a ak dènye a, li menm ki te mouri, men ki te leve soti vivan nan lanmò a, men sa l' voye di ou:
9 “I know your works, oppression, and your poverty (but you are rich), and the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews, and they are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.
Mwen konnen jan w'ap soufri. Mwen konnen jan ou pòv. Men, pou di vre, ou rich anpil! Mwen konnen jan moun ki swadizan jwif yo ap pale ou mal. Men, se pa jwif yo ye. Se yon bann moun Satan.
10 Don’t be afraid of the things which you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested; and you will have oppression for ten days. Be faithful to death, and I will give you the crown of life.
Ou pa bezwen pè pou sa ou pral soufri ankò. Koute, Satan pral chache sonde nou tout, li pral jete anpil nan nou nan prizon. Nou pral soufri pandan dis jou. Men, kenbe fèm menm si nou gen pou n' mouri. M'a ban nou lavi pou rekonpans.
11 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. He who overcomes won’t be harmed by the second death.
Se pou moun ki gen zòrèy pou yo tande tande sa Lespri Bondye a ap di legliz yo. Moun ki va goumen jouk yo genyen batay la p'ap soufri dezyèm lanmò a.
12 “To the angel of the assembly in Pergamum write: “He who has the sharp two-edged sword says these things:
Ekri zanj legliz ki nan lavil Pègam lan. Di l' konsa: Men sa moun ki gen nepe file de bò a voye di ou:
13 “I know your works and where you dwell, where Satan’s throne is. You hold firmly to my name, and didn’t deny my faith in the days of Antipas my witness, my faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.
Mwen konnen kote ou rete a se la Satan chita. Ou pa lage m', ou pa pèdi konfians ou gen nan mwen an, menm lè yo te fè touye Antipas ki mouri poutèt mwen la nan mitan nou, nan lavil kote Satan rete a.
14 But I have a few things against you, because you have there some who hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to throw a stumbling block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit sexual immorality.
Men, men repwòch mwen gen pou m' fè ou: ou gen kèk moun lakay ou k'ap swiv konsèy Balaram te bay lè li te moutre Balak sa pou l' te fè pou fè pitit Izrayèl yo tonbe nan peche, pou l' te fè yo manje viann bèt yo te ofri pou touye bay zidòl, pou l' te fè yo lage kò yo nan imoralite.
15 So also you likewise have some who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans.
Konsa tou, ou gen kèk moun lakay ou k'ap swiv konsèy Nikolayit yo.
16 Repent therefore, or else I am coming to you quickly and I will make war against them with the sword of my mouth.
Tounen vin jwenn Bondye non. Si ou pa fè sa, talè konsa m'ap vini, m'ap goumen ak moun sa yo ak nepe k'ap soti nan bouch mwen an.
17 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes, to him I will give of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows but he who receives it.
Se pou moun ki gen zòrèy pou yo tande tande sa Lespri Bondye a ap di legliz yo. Tout moun ki va goumen jouk yo genyen batay la, m'a ba yo laman ki kache a. M'ap ba yo chak yon ti wòch blan ak yon lòt non ekri sou li, yon non pesonn pa konnen esepte moun ki resevwa l' la.
18 “To the angel of the assembly in Thyatira write: “The Son of God, who has his eyes like a flame of fire, and his feet are like burnished brass, says these things:
Ekri zanj legliz ki nan lavil Tiyati a. Di l' konsa: Men sa pitit Bondye a voye di ou, li menm ki gen je l' yo tankou de flanm dife, ak pie l' yo klere tankou kwiv poli.
19 “I know your works, your love, faith, service, patient endurance, and that your last works are more than the first.
Mwen konnen tou sa w'ap fè. Mwen konnen jan ou gen renmen nan kè ou, jan ou gen konfians, jan ou fè sèvis ou byen, ak jan ou gen anpil pasians. Mwen konnen tou w'ap travay koulye a pi plis pase anvan.
20 But I have this against you, that you tolerate your woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess. She teaches and seduces my servants to commit sexual immorality and to eat things sacrificed to idols.
Men, men repwòch mwen gen pou m' fè ou: w'ap tolere fanm yo rele Jezabèl la k'ap pran pòz pwofèt Bondye li. L'ap detounen sèvitè m' yo, l'ap moutre yo pou yo lage kò yo nan imoralite, pou yo manje viann bèt yo te ofri pou touye bay zidòl.
21 I gave her time to repent, but she refuses to repent of her sexual immorality.
Mwen ba l' kont tan pou l' vire kite peche l' yo. Men, li pa vle kite imoralite li a.
22 Behold, I will throw her and those who commit adultery with her into a bed of great oppression, unless they repent of her works.
Se poutèt sa, mwen pral lage l' jete sou yon kabann kote li pral soufri anpil. Tout moun k'ap fè adiltè avè l' yo pral soufri anpil tou, si yo pa chanje, si yo pa kite move zak y'ap plede fè ansanm avè l' yo.
23 I will kill her children with Death, and all the assemblies will know that I am he who searches the minds and hearts. I will give to each one of you according to your deeds.
Apre sa, m'ap fè tout pitit li yo mouri. Konsa, tout legliz yo va konnen mwen se moun ki konnen tout lide lèzòm ap fè nan tèt yo ak tout santiman yo gen nan kè yo. M'ap bay chak moun sa yo merite dapre sa yo fè.
24 But to you I say, to the rest who are in Thyatira—as many as don’t have this teaching, who don’t know what some call ‘the deep things of Satan’—to you I say, I am not putting any other burden on you.
Pou nou menm, lòt manm legliz nan lavil Tiyati yo ki pa swiv move konsèy sa yo, ki pa t' aprann sa bann moun sa yo ap rele gwo sekrè Satan an, men sa m'ap di nou: Mwen p'ap ban nou lòt chay pase sa.
25 Nevertheless, hold that which you have firmly until I come.
Men, kenbe sa nou genyen an byen fèm jouk jou m'a tounen.
26 He who overcomes, and he who keeps my works to the end, to him I will give authority over the nations.
Tout moun ki va goumen jouk yo genyen batay la, epi ki va toujou ap fè sa m' vle yo fè a jouk sa kaba, m'a ba yo pouvwa sou tout nasyon,
27 He will rule them with a rod of iron, shattering them like clay pots, as I also have received of my Father;
menm jan Papa m' te ban m' pouvwa sa a tou. Y'a gouvènen nasyon yo ak yon baton fè, y'a kraze yo an miyèt moso tankou yon kannari yo kraze.
28 and I will give him the morning star.
M'a ba yo bèl zetwal ki klere chak maten an tou.
29 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
Se pou moun ki gen zòrèy pou yo tande tande sa Lespri Bondye a ap di legliz yo.
