2 Tesalonik 2

1 Ann konsidere lè Jezikri, Seyè nou an, va parèt pou l' sanble nou ansanm bò kote li. Frè m' yo, men sa m'ap mande nou:

Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to Him, we ask you, brothers,

2 Pa kite pesonn twouble lespri nou fasil, ni fè nou pèdi tèt nou ak ankenn mesaj ki swadizan soti nan Bondye, ni ak ankenn bèl diskou, ni ak ankenn lèt mwen ta swadizan ekri nou, pou yo fè nou kwè jou Seyè a rive deja.

not to be easily disconcerted or alarmed by any spirit or message or letter seeming to be from us, alleging that the Day of the Lord has already come.

3 Pa kite pesonn twonpe nou nan ankenn jan. Paske, anvan jou sa a rive, gen yon dènye revòlt kont Bondye ki pou fèt. Nou gen pou nou wè mechan ki deja kondannen pou disparèt la vini anvan.

Let no one deceive you in any way, for it will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness—the son of destruction—is revealed.

4 Mechan sa a ap kanpe, l'ap pran pozisyon kont tout bagay lèzòm ap sèvi, kont tout bagay lèzòm konsidere pou Bondye. La fè, la fè, jouk la antre nan tanp Bondye a, la chita, la fè tèt li pase pou Bondye.

He will oppose and exalt himself above every so-called god or object of worship. So he will seat himself in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.

5 Nou pa chonje mwen te di nou sa lè m' te lakay nou toujou?

Do you not remember that I told you these things while I was still with you?

6 Men, gen yon bagay k'ap anpeche levènman sa yo rive koulye a. Nou konnen kisa li ye: Se sak fè, mechan an p'ap parèt anvan lè li.

And you know what is now restraining him, so that he may be revealed at the proper time.

7 Wi, pouvwa mechan an deja ap travay anba chal. Men, anvan pou levènman sa yo rive, se pou moun k'ap ba l' baryè a disparèt.

For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work, but the one who now restrains it will continue until he is taken out of the way.

8 Lè sa a, mechan an va parèt. Seyè Jezi va soufle ak bouch li sou li, la touye li. L'ap annik parèt nan tout pouvwa li pou l' fini nèt ak li.

And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will slay with the breath of His mouth and annihilate by the majesty of His arrival.

9 Mechan an va vini ak tout pouvwa Satan an. Li va fè anpil mirak, anpil mèvèy ak anpil gwo siy pou bay manti.

The coming of the lawless one will be accompanied by the working of Satan, with every kind of power, sign, and false wonder,

10 Li va fè tout kalite bagay mal pou twonpe moun k'ap pèdi tèt yo. Y'ap pèdi tèt yo paske yo pa asepte verite ki pou ta sove yo a, yo pa renmen li.

and with every wicked deception directed against those who are perishing, because they refused the love of the truth that would have saved them.

11 Se poutèt sa, Bondye ap voye yon pouvwa k'ap travay pou egare yo pi rèd, pou yo sa kwè nan manti.

For this reason God will send them a powerful delusion so that they believe the lie,

12 Konsa, tout moun ki p'ap kwè nan verite a, ki te pran plezi yo nan fè lenjistis, yo tout pral kondannen.

in order that judgment may come upon all who have disbelieved the truth and delighted in wickedness.

13 Se yon devwa pou mwen pou m' pa janm sispann di Bondye mèsi pou nou, frè m' yo, nou menm Seyè a renmen. Paske, Bondye chwazi nou pou nou ka premye moun ki pou delivre, gremesi pouvwa Sentespri ki fè nou tounen moun pa l', paske nou kwè nan verite a.

But we should always thank God for you, brothers who are loved by the Lord, because God has chosen you from the beginning to be saved by the sanctification of the Spirit and by faith in the truth.

14 Gremesi bon nouvèl mwen te anonse nou an, Bondye chwazi nou pou nou ka resevwa pa nou nan lwanj ki pou Jezikri, Seyè nou an.

To this He called you through our gospel, so that you may share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

15 Se sa ki fè, frè m' yo, se pou nou kenbe fèm. Pa bliye tou sa nou te aprann nan bouch mwen ak nan lèt mwen an.

Therefore, brothers, stand firm and cling to the traditions we taught you, whether by speech or by letter.

16 M'ap lapriyè Jezikri, Seyè nou an, ansanm ak Bondye, Papa nou ki renmen nou, ki fè nou favè, ki ban nou yon kouraj ki p'ap janm febli ansanm ak yon bèl espwa. (aiōnios g166)

Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who by grace has loved us and given us eternal comfort and good hope, (aiōnios g166)

17 M'ap mande yo pou yo fòtifye kè nou, pou yo ban nou fòs kouraj pou nou fè tou sa ki byen, pou nou di tou sa ki byen.

encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good word and deed.
