Eklezyas 10-12
Haitian Creole Version
10 ¶ Mouch mouri gate tout boutèy odè. Yo fè l' santi. Konsa tou, yon sèl ti betiz ka fè tout gwo konesans ou pase pou anyen. Sa ka fè moun pa respekte ou ankò.
2 Kè yon moun ki gen konprann toujou panche pou fè sa ki byen, men kè moun sòt toujou panche pou fè sa ki mal.
3 Menm lè moun sòt ap mache nan lari, li egare, li fè tout moun wè se moun sòt li ye.
4 ¶ Si chèf ou move sou ou, pa prese vire do ou ale. Si ou rete dousman, sa ka evite ou anpil malè.
5 Men yon lòt move bagay mwen wè ankò sou latè, lèfini se chèf yo ki lakòz sa.
6 Yo pran moun sòt mete yo nan gwo pozisyon, epi yo kite moun ki chaje ak konesans anba.
7 Mwen wè esklav ap karakole sou chwal yo, epi chèf yo menm k'ap mache apye tankou esklav.
8 Si ou fouye yon pi, se ou menm ki va tonbe ladan l'. Si ou kraze yon miray, se ou menm sèpan va mòde.
9 Si w'ap koupe wòch karyann, w'a blese. Si w'ap fann bwa, malè ka rive ou.
10 Si dan rach ou pa koupe, si ou pa file l', ou gen pou travay pi rèd lè w'ap sèvi avè l'. Men bon konprann ap fè ou reyisi nan sa w'ap fè.
11 Ou te mèt konn chame sèpan, sa p'ap sèvi ou anyen si ou kite l' gen tan mòde ou.
12 ¶ Pawòl ki soti nan bouch yon moun ki gen konprann sèvi yon lwanj pou li. Men pawòl nan bouch moun sòt ap lakòz lanmò yo.
13 Lè yo konmanse pale, se betiz y'ap di. Men lè y'ap fini, se pawòl moun fou nèt y'ap di.
14 Moun sòt renmen pale anpil. Pesonn pa konnen sa k'ap rive denmen. Pesonn pa ka di nou sa k'ap rive apre nou mouri.
15 Moun sòt touye tèt li nan travay, li bliye chimen kay li.
16 ¶ Ala malè pou yon peyi lè li gen yon timoun alatèt li, lè chèf li yo tonbe nan manje depi granmaten.
17 Men, ala bon sa bon pou yon peyi lè wa a se moun ki soti nan bon ras, lè chèf li yo manje lè pou yo manje pou yo ka jwenn fòs, epi ki pa lage kò yo nan banbòch.
18 Lè yon moun twò parese pou l' repare kay li, twati a ap koule, fetay la ap tonbe.
19 Yo fè resepsyon pou yo pran plezi yo, yo bwè diven pou fè kè yo kontan, men se lajan ki penmèt yo fè tou sa.
20 Pa kritike yon wa, pa menm nan kè ou. Pa kritike rich yo, pa menm anndan chanm ou. Paske raje gen zòrèy.
11 ¶ Fè byen san gad dèyè. Yon lè konsa, w'a jwenn rekonpans ou.
2 Separe sa ou genyen ak mezi moun ou kapab, paske ou pa janm konnen ki malè ki ka rive ou sou latè.
3 Depi nwaj yo plen dlo, se pou lapli tonbe sou latè. Lè yon pyebwa tonbe, kit li tonbe sou bò nò, kit li tonbe sou bò sid, kote l' tonbe a, se la pou li rete.
4 Si w'ap gade sou van, ou p'ap janm plante. Si w'ap gade sou nwaj, ou p'ap janm ranmase rekòt.
5 Menm jan ou pa konnen ni kote van an soti ni kote li prale, menm jan an tou ou pa konnen ki jan zo timoun fè fòme nan vant fanm ansent. Se konsa tou ou pa ka konprann travay Bondye, li menm ki fè tout bagay.
6 Nan maten, plante jaden ou. Aswè rive, plante jaden ou ankò. Ou pa janm konnen kilès nan de yo ap bay plis rannman. Ou pa janm konnen si tou de p'ap pran, si tou de p'ap bay menm rannman.
7 ¶ Ala bon bagay se fè klè! Sa bon nèt lè ou wè solèy.
8 Di Bondye mèsi pou chak lanne li mete sou lavi ou. Ou te mèt viv lontan, pa bliye tan ou pral pase lè ou fin mouri a long anpil. Tou sa ki vin apre pa vo anyen.
9 menm, jenn gason, pwofite jennès nou. Fè kè nou kontan pandan tout tan nou jenn gason toujou. Fè tou sa nou ta vle fè, tou sa nou anvi fè. Men pa bliye Bondye gen pou mande nou kont pou tou sa nou fè.
10 Pa kite lapenn chita nan kè nou. Pa kite anyen fè nou soufri nan kò nou. Ou p'ap rete jenn gason ak cheve nwa tou tan.
12 ¶ Pandan ou jenn gason an, pa janm bliye Bondye ki te kreye ou la, anvan jou malè yo rive sou ou, anvan lè a rive pou ou di: Mwen pa jwenn ankenn plezi nan lavi.
2 Lè sa a, limyè solèy la, lalin lan ak zetwal yo ap parèt twoub twoub devan je ou. Syèl la pa janm klè. Lapli poko fin tonbe, tan an gen tan mare ankò.
3 Lè sa a, bra ou yo ki te konn pwoteje ou ap tranble. Janm ou yo ki enganm koulye a ap febli. Ou p'ap gen dan pou kraze manje. Je ou yo ap twò fèb pou wè klè.
4 De twou zòrèy ou yo ap bouche, ou p'ap tande sa k'ap pase nan lari. Ata gwo bri moulen ki toupre ou la, w'a tande l' tou piti piti. Moun te mèt ap chante bò kote ou, w'ap tande vwa yo lwen lwen. Lè sa a, depi pipirit konmanse chante, nou gen tan leve.
5 W'ap pè moute sou bagay ki twò wo pou ou pa gen tèt vire. Menm mache nan granchemen ap yon danje pou ou. Tout cheve nan tèt ou ap vin blan, w'ap pèdi fòs kouray ou. Pa gen anyen ki ka fè l' tounen ankò. W'ap desann nan dènye kay kote ou pral rete pou tou tan an. Lè sa a, moun ap mache rele nan tout lari.
6 Wi, pa janm bliye Bondye ki fè ou la anvan ti chenn an ajan an detache sot tonbe, anvan bòl an lò a tonbe kraze, anvan kalbas dlo a kraze miyèt moso, anvan so a kase.
7 Lè sa a, kò nou pral tounen pousyè latè jan l' te ye anvan an. Souf nou menm ap tounen jwenn Bondye ki te ban nou l' lan.
8 ¶ Lavi pa vo anyen. Lavi pa sèvi anyen. Filozòf la di: Anyen pa vo anyen.
9 Men, paske filozòf la te gen bon konprann, li pa janm sispann moutre pèp la tou sa li te konnen. Li egzaminen anpil pwovèb, li etidye yo, li pran san li pou li sanble yo.
10 Li pran san li pou li jwenn pawòl ki pou fè moun plezi. Men nan tou sa li ekri, li bay verite a jan li wè l' la.
11 Pawòl moun ki gen konprann tankou baton yo sèvi pou djige bèf kabwa. Liv pwovèb yo tankou yon seri klou yo kloure yonn kot lòt. Men se yon sèl mèt ki bay yo, se Bondye.
12 Pitit mwen, men sa pou ou fè: Pran leson sou bagay sa yo. Si pou yo ta ekri anpil liv, yo pa ta janm fini. Lè ou etidye twòp, sa fè kè ou fè ou mal.
13 ¶ Apre tout pawòl sa yo, se yon sèl bagay pou m' di nan sa: Gen krentif pou Bondye. Fè tou sa li mande ou fè yo. Se pou sa ase Bondye te kreye moun.
14 Paske Bondye ap jije tou sa n'ap fè, kit yo bon, kit yo pa bon, ata bagay nou fè an kachèt.
Ecclesiastes 10-12
New International Version
Ecclesiastes 10-12
New International Version
10 As dead flies give perfume a bad smell,
so a little folly(A) outweighs wisdom and honor.
2 The heart of the wise inclines to the right,
but the heart of the fool to the left.
3 Even as fools walk along the road,
they lack sense
and show everyone(B) how stupid they are.
4 If a ruler’s anger rises against you,
do not leave your post;(C)
calmness can lay great offenses to rest.(D)
5 There is an evil I have seen under the sun,
the sort of error that arises from a ruler:
6 Fools are put in many high positions,(E)
while the rich occupy the low ones.
7 I have seen slaves on horseback,
while princes go on foot like slaves.(F)
8 Whoever digs a pit may fall into it;(G)
whoever breaks through a wall may be bitten by a snake.(H)
9 Whoever quarries stones may be injured by them;
whoever splits logs may be endangered by them.(I)
10 If the ax is dull
and its edge unsharpened,
more strength is needed,
but skill will bring success.
11 If a snake bites before it is charmed,
the charmer receives no fee.(J)
12 Words from the mouth of the wise are gracious,(K)
but fools are consumed by their own lips.(L)
13 At the beginning their words are folly;
at the end they are wicked madness—
14 and fools multiply words.(M)
No one knows what is coming—
who can tell someone else what will happen after them?(N)
15 The toil of fools wearies them;
they do not know the way to town.
16 Woe to the land whose king was a servant[a](O)
and whose princes feast in the morning.
17 Blessed is the land whose king is of noble birth
and whose princes eat at a proper time—
for strength and not for drunkenness.(P)
18 Through laziness, the rafters sag;
because of idle hands, the house leaks.(Q)
19 A feast is made for laughter,
wine(R) makes life merry,
and money is the answer for everything.
20 Do not revile the king(S) even in your thoughts,
or curse the rich in your bedroom,
because a bird in the sky may carry your words,
and a bird on the wing may report what you say.
Invest in Many Ventures
11 Ship(T) your grain across the sea;
after many days you may receive a return.(U)
2 Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight;
you do not know what disaster may come upon the land.
3 If clouds are full of water,
they pour rain on the earth.
Whether a tree falls to the south or to the north,
in the place where it falls, there it will lie.
4 Whoever watches the wind will not plant;
whoever looks at the clouds will not reap.
5 As you do not know the path of the wind,(V)
or how the body is formed[b] in a mother’s womb,(W)
so you cannot understand the work of God,
the Maker of all things.
6 Sow your seed in the morning,
and at evening let your hands not be idle,(X)
for you do not know which will succeed,
whether this or that,
or whether both will do equally well.
Remember Your Creator While Young
7 Light is sweet,
and it pleases the eyes to see the sun.(Y)
8 However many years anyone may live,
let them enjoy them all.
But let them remember(Z) the days of darkness,
for there will be many.
Everything to come is meaningless.
9 You who are young, be happy while you are young,
and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth.
Follow the ways of your heart
and whatever your eyes see,
but know that for all these things
God will bring you into judgment.(AA)
10 So then, banish anxiety(AB) from your heart
and cast off the troubles of your body,
for youth and vigor are meaningless.(AC)
12 Remember(AD) your Creator
in the days of your youth,
before the days of trouble(AE) come
and the years approach when you will say,
“I find no pleasure in them”—
2 before the sun and the light
and the moon and the stars grow dark,
and the clouds return after the rain;
3 when the keepers of the house tremble,
and the strong men stoop,
when the grinders cease because they are few,
and those looking through the windows grow dim;
4 when the doors to the street are closed
and the sound of grinding fades;
when people rise up at the sound of birds,
but all their songs grow faint;(AF)
5 when people are afraid of heights
and of dangers in the streets;
when the almond tree blossoms
and the grasshopper drags itself along
and desire no longer is stirred.
Then people go to their eternal home(AG)
and mourners(AH) go about the streets.
6 Remember him—before the silver cord is severed,
and the golden bowl is broken;
before the pitcher is shattered at the spring,
and the wheel broken at the well,
7 and the dust returns(AI) to the ground it came from,
and the spirit returns to God(AJ) who gave it.(AK)
The Conclusion of the Matter
9 Not only was the Teacher wise, but he also imparted knowledge to the people. He pondered and searched out and set in order many proverbs.(AN) 10 The Teacher(AO) searched to find just the right words, and what he wrote was upright and true.(AP)
11 The words of the wise are like goads, their collected sayings like firmly embedded nails(AQ)—given by one shepherd.[d] 12 Be warned, my son, of anything in addition to them.
Of making many books there is no end, and much study wearies the body.(AR)

Galasi 1
Haitian Creole Version
Galasi 1
Haitian Creole Version
1 ¶ Mwen menm Pòl, se pa moun ki te chwazi m', ni Bondye pa t' voye yon moun chwazi m', men se Jezikri menm ki te chwazi m' pou sèvi apòt, ansanm ak Bondye Papa a ki te fè l' leve soti vivan nan lanmò.
2 Tout frè ki isit la yo mete tèt ansanm avè m' pou ekri lèt sa a pou tout legliz ki nan peyi Galasi yo.
3 Nou mande Bondye, Papa nou, ansanm ak Jezikri, Seyè a, pou yo ban nou benediksyon ak kè poze.
4 Dapre volonte Bondye, Papa nou, Kris la te bay tèt li pou peche nou yo, pou l' te ka delivre nou anba move tan mechan ki sou latè koulye a.
5 Lwanj pou Bondye pou tout tan! Amèn.
6 ¶ Mwen sezi wè jan nou prese vire do bay Bondye ki te rele nou, gremesi Kris la, pou n' al swiv yon lòt kalite bon nouvèl.
7 Pou di vre, pa gen okenn lòt bon nouvèl. Men, mwen di sa paske gen moun k'ap plede chaje tèt nou, ki vle chanje anpil bagay nan bon nouvèl Kris la.
8 Enben, si yon moun ta vin anonse nou yon lòt bon nouvèl ki pa menm ak sa nou te anonse nou an, moun sa a li te mèt se mwen menm, osinon yon zanj ki soti nan syèl, madichon pou li!
9 Mwen deja di nou sa, koulye a m'ap repete nou sa ankò: si yon moun vin anonse nou yon bon nouvèl ki pa menm ak sa nou te resevwa a, madichon pou li!
10 ¶ Lè mwen di sa, èske sa vle di se favè moun m'ap chache? Non. Se favè Bondye m'ap chache. Eske se plezi m'ap chache fè lèzòm plezi? Si m' t'ap chache fè lèzòm plezi, se pa Kris la mwen ta ap sèvi.
11 M'ap di nou sa, frè m' yo, bon nouvèl m'ap anonse a pa soti nan moun.
12 Paske mwen menm, mwen pa t' resevwa l' nan men pesonn, ni se pa yon moun ki te moutre m' li. Men, se Jezikri menm ki te fè m' konnen li.
13 Nou tande pale sa m' te konn fè nan tan lontan, lè m' te nan relijyon jwif yo. Nou konnen jan m' te san pitye lè m' t'ap pèsekite legliz Bondye a, jan m' t'ap chache kraze li.
14 Nan relijyon jwif yo mwen te pi fò pase anpil moun nan ras mwen ki te menm laj avè mwen. Mwen te pi cho pase yo pou defann koutim zansèt nou yo.
15 Men, Bondye fè m' favè l', li mete m' apa depi nan vant manman m', li rele m' pou m' te ka sèvi li.
16 Konsa, lè se te lide l' pou l' te fè m' konnen Pitit li a, pou m' te ka anonse bon nouvèl li a nan mitan moun ki pa jwif yo, wi, lè sa a, mwen pa t' al mande pesonn konsèy.
17 Mwen pa t' moute Jerizalèm non plis pou m' al wè moun ki te apòt anvan m' yo. Men, mwen te pati la menm pou peyi Arabi. Apre sa, mwen tounen tounen m' lavil Damas.
18 Sou twazan, mwen moute lavil Jerizalèm pou m' te fè konesans ak Pyè. Mwen rete kenz jou lakay li.
19 Lè sa a, mwen pa t' wè okenn nan lòt apòt yo, esepte Jak, frè Seyè a.
20 Sa m'ap ekri nou la a, se vre wi. Mwen pran Bondye pou temwen, mwen p'ap bay manti.
21 Apre sa, mwen te ale nan peyi Siri ak Silisi.
22 Pandan tout tan sa a, manm legliz Kris la ki te nan peyi Jide a pa t' ankò rekonèt mwen.
23 Yo te sèlman konn tande moun ap di yo: Nonm ki t'ap pesekite nou nan tan lontan an, koulye a men l'ap mache anonse bon nouvèl li te vle kraze a.
24 Yo t'ap fè lwanj Bondye pou tèt mwen.
Galatians 1
New International Version
Galatians 1
New International Version
1 Paul, an apostle(A)—sent not from men nor by a man,(B) but by Jesus Christ(C) and God the Father,(D) who raised him from the dead(E)— 2 and all the brothers and sisters[a] with me,(F)
To the churches in Galatia:(G)
3 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,(H) 4 who gave himself for our sins(I) to rescue us from the present evil age,(J) according to the will of our God and Father,(K) 5 to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.(L)
No Other Gospel
6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called(M) you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel(N)— 7 which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion(O) and are trying to pervert(P) the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you,(Q) let them be under God’s curse!(R) 9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted,(S) let them be under God’s curse!
10 Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people?(T) If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
Paul Called by God
11 I want you to know, brothers and sisters,(U) that the gospel I preached(V) is not of human origin. 12 I did not receive it from any man,(W) nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation(X) from Jesus Christ.(Y)
13 For you have heard of my previous way of life in Judaism,(Z) how intensely I persecuted the church of God(AA) and tried to destroy it.(AB) 14 I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people and was extremely zealous(AC) for the traditions of my fathers.(AD) 15 But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb(AE) and called me(AF) by his grace, was pleased 16 to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles,(AG) my immediate response was not to consult any human being.(AH) 17 I did not go up to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before I was, but I went into Arabia. Later I returned to Damascus.(AI)
18 Then after three years,(AJ) I went up to Jerusalem(AK) to get acquainted with Cephas[b] and stayed with him fifteen days. 19 I saw none of the other apostles—only James,(AL) the Lord’s brother. 20 I assure you before God(AM) that what I am writing you is no lie.(AN)
21 Then I went to Syria(AO) and Cilicia.(AP) 22 I was personally unknown to the churches of Judea(AQ) that are in Christ.(AR) 23 They only heard the report: “The man who formerly persecuted us is now preaching the faith(AS) he once tried to destroy.”(AT) 24 And they praised God(AU) because of me.
