2 Korint 2
Haitian Creole Version
2 ¶ Se konsa, mwen pran desizyon pou m' pa vin lakay nou pou m' pa fè nou lapenn ankò.
2 Si pou m' ta fè nou lapenn, ki moun ki pou ta fè kè m' kontan ankò? Eske se ta moun mwen ta fè lapenn yo?
3 Se poutèt sa, mwen ekri nou jan m' te fè l' la: mwen pa t' vle pou lè m' rive lakay nou, moun ki pou ta fè kè m' kontan yo, se yo menm ki pou ta fè m' lapenn. Paske, mwen gen fèm konviksyon sa a, lè m' kontan, nou tout nou kontan tou.
4 Wi. Lè sa a, kè m' te boulvèse anpil, kè m' te sere, se ak dlo nan je mwen te ekri nou. Mwen pa t' fè sa pou fè nou lapenn non. Se vle mwen te vle fè nou konnen jan m' renmen nou anpil.
5 ¶ Si yon moun fè yon lòt lapenn, se pa mwen li fè lapenn, men se nou tout, moun Korent, li fè lapenn. Pou m' pa al twò lwen, pito m' di se kèk nan nou li fè lapenn.
6 Pifò nan nou gen tan peni nonm sa a, se kont li.
7 Koulye a se pou nou padonnen l', se pou nou ba li ankourajman pito, pou yon twò gwo lapenn pa kraze l' nèt.
8 Se poutèt sa, m'ap mande nou pou nou aji avè l' yon jan pou fè l' wè jan nou renmen li.
9 Se pou sa menm mwen te ekri nou: mwen te vle sonde nou pou m' te konnen si nou toujou soti pou nou koute tou sa m' di nou.
10 Enben, lè nou menm nou padonnen yon moun pou mal li fè a, mwen menm tou mwen padonnen li. Lè mwen menm mwen padonnen li, pou di vre, mwen pa gen anyen pou m' padonnen non, men, lè m' fè sa, mwen fè l' pou nou devan Kris la,
11 pou pa bay Satan okenn avantaj sou nou. Paske nou konnen byen pwòp sa Satan gen nan tèt li.
12 ¶ Lè mwen te lavil Twoas pou m' te anonse Bon Nouvèl ki pale sou Kris la, Seyè a te ban m' yon bèl okazyon pou m' te travay la.
13 Men, kè m' te sere anpil, paske mwen pa t' jwenn Tit, frè nou an. Se poutèt sa mwen di moun Twoas yo orevwa, epi m' pati pou Masedwan.
14 Ann di Bondye mèsi! Paske l'ap toujou mennen nou ansanm ak Kris la pou fete batay li genyen an. Li pran nou, li sèvi ak nou tankou yon odè k'ap gaye bon sant li toupatou, pou n' ka fè tout moun konnen Kris la.
15 Nou tankou yon bon lansan Kris la ap boule pou Bondye. Sant li rive nan men tout moun, kit y'ap sove, kit y'ap peri.
16 Pou moun k'ap peri yo, se yon sant lanmò k'ap touye yo. Men, pou moun k'ap sove yo, se yon sant lavi k'ap ba yo lavi. Ki moun ki kapab fè yon travay konsa?
17 Nou pa tankou anpil moun k'ap defòme pawòl Bondye a. Okontrè, nou pale pawòl la jan li ye a devan Bondye, tankou moun k'ap viv nan Kris la, paske se Bondye menm ki voye nou.
2 Corinthians 2
New American Standard Bible
Reaffirm Your Love
2 But I decided this [a]for my own sake, that I (A)would not come to you in sorrow again. 2 For if I (B)cause you sorrow, who then will be the one making me glad but the one who is made sorrowful by me? 3 This is the very thing I (C)wrote you, so that (D)when I came, I would not have sorrow from those who ought to make me rejoice; having (E)confidence in you all that my joy was the joy of you all. 4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I (F)wrote to you with many tears; not so that you would be made sorrowful, but that you might know the love which I have especially for you.
5 But (G)if anyone has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow not for me, but in some degree—[b]not to say too much—for all of you. 6 Sufficient for such a person is (H)this punishment which was imposed by the majority, 7 so that on the other hand, you should rather (I)forgive and comfort him, otherwise such a person might be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow. 8 Therefore I urge you to reaffirm your love for him. 9 For to this end (J)I also wrote, so that I might [c](K)put you to the test, whether you are (L)obedient in all things. 10 But one whom you forgive anything, I also forgive; for indeed what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, I did so for your sakes (M)in the presence of Christ, 11 so that no advantage would be taken of us by (N)Satan, for (O)we are not ignorant of his schemes.
12 Now when I came to (P)Troas for the (Q)gospel of Christ and when a (R)door was opened for me in the Lord, 13 I (S)had no rest for my spirit, not finding (T)Titus my brother; but (U)saying goodbye to them, I went on to (V)Macedonia.
14 (W)But thanks be to God, who always (X)leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us reveals the (Y)fragrance of the (Z)knowledge of Him in every place. 15 For we are a (AA)fragrance of Christ to God among (AB)those who are being saved and among those who are perishing: 16 (AC)to the one an [d]aroma from death to death, to the other an aroma from life to life. And who is (AD)adequate for these things? 17 For we are not like the many, [e](AE)peddling the word of God, but (AF)as from sincerity, but as from God, we speak in Christ (AG)in the sight of God.

New International Version
2 1 So I made up my mind that I would not make another painful visit to you.(A) 2 For if I grieve you,(B) who is left to make me glad but you whom I have grieved? 3 I wrote as I did,(C) so that when I came I would not be distressed(D) by those who should have made me rejoice. I had confidence(E) in all of you, that you would all share my joy. 4 For I wrote you(F) out of great distress and anguish of heart and with many tears, not to grieve you but to let you know the depth of my love for you.
Forgiveness for the Offender
5 If anyone has caused grief,(G) he has not so much grieved me as he has grieved all of you to some extent—not to put it too severely. 6 The punishment(H) inflicted on him by the majority is sufficient. 7 Now instead, you ought to forgive and comfort him,(I) so that he will not be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow. 8 I urge you, therefore, to reaffirm your love for him. 9 Another reason I wrote you(J) was to see if you would stand the test and be obedient in everything.(K) 10 Anyone you forgive, I also forgive. And what I have forgiven—if there was anything to forgive—I have forgiven in the sight of Christ for your sake, 11 in order that Satan(L) might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.(M)
Ministers of the New Covenant
12 Now when I went to Troas(N) to preach the gospel of Christ(O) and found that the Lord had opened a door(P) for me, 13 I still had no peace of mind,(Q) because I did not find my brother Titus(R) there. So I said goodbye to them and went on to Macedonia.(S)
14 But thanks be to God,(T) who always leads us as captives in Christ’s triumphal procession and uses us to spread the aroma(U) of the knowledge(V) of him everywhere. 15 For we are to God the pleasing aroma(W) of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.(X) 16 To the one we are an aroma that brings death;(Y) to the other, an aroma that brings life. And who is equal to such a task?(Z) 17 Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit.(AA) On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity,(AB) as those sent from God.(AC)
