Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1Beloved, this is now my second letter to you. Both of them are reminders to stir you to wholesome thinking
1IET kijin likau kariau, me i intin won komail, kompok kan, pwen kataman kin komail O kapirada nen omail makelekel.
2by recalling what was foretold by the holy prophets and commanded by our Lord and Savior through your apostles.
2Pwe komail en tamanda majan en jaukop jaraui kan, kujoned en Kaun o Jaunkamaur, me wanporon oko, me pakadar won komail, wa don komail.
3Most importantly, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires.
3O iet eta komail en aja, ni imwin ran akan aramaj lalaue pan pwarado, me pan weweid ni pein ar inon jued.
4“Where is the promise of His coming?” they will ask. “Ever since our fathers fell asleep, everything continues as it has from the beginning of creation.”
4Indada: la kilel en a pan kotido? Pwe jan ni ran o, jam akan melar kokodo lel met, meakaroj kin dueta nin tapi o.
5But they deliberately overlook the fact that long ago by God’s word the heavens existed and the earth was formed out of water and by water,
5Pwe irail kin men ponjaja, me majia lan akan o jappa eu mia nan pil o, ap pwarada jan nan pil ki majan en Kot.
6through which the world of that time perished in the flood.
6I me jappa en maj o okilar nolik lapalap.
7And by that same word, the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.
7Pil dueta lan akan o jappa en met nekinek kita majan ota on kijiniai ni ran en kadeik o kampan aramaj me jan Kot akan.
8Beloved, do not let this one thing escape your notice: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.
8Kompok kan, iet eta komail ni aja, me ran ta ieu o par kid raj pena ta ren Kaun o, o par kid o ran eu dupeneta.
9The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise as some understand slowness, but is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish but everyone to come to repentance.
9Kaun o j ota kotin kapwandela inau o, duen akai kin kiki on, pwe a kotin kanonama on komail, pwe a jota kotin mauki, akai en lokidokila, pwe karoj en wilikapala.
10But the Day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar, the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and its works will be laid bare.
10A ran en Kaun o pan pwarado dueta lipirap amen. I dokan lan akan pan mor pajan ni moron lapalap o tapipa kan pan pei pajan ki kijiniai kel, o jappa o a dipijou kan pan ronala.
11Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to conduct yourselves in holiness and godliness
11Ari, ma mepukat karoj pan ola, iaduen a pan re omail ni omail wiawia mau o lelapok,
12as you anticipate and hasten the coming of the day of God, when the heavens will be destroyed by fire and the elements will melt in the heat.
12Pwe komail kin auiaui o inon ion ran en Kot, me lan akan pan ron kila kijiniai, o tapipa kan pei pajan, pwe karakar muletok.
13But in keeping with God’s promise, we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.
13A kitail kin auiaui lan kap akan o jappa kap, waja me lamalam pun pan wiaui, duen a kotin inaukidar.
14Therefore, beloved, as you anticipate these things, make every effort to be found at peace—spotless and blameless in His sight.
14Kompok kan, pweki omail auiaui mepukat, komail en nantion, pwe komail en diarokada re a jo jamin, o jo japun ni popol.
15Consider also that our Lord’s patience brings salvation, just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom God gave him.
15Pwe komail aja duen kanonama en atail Kaun, pwe i kamaur pa ’mail, duen ri atail Pauluj kompok intin won komail er ni lolekon, me ko on i.
16He writes this way in all his letters, speaking in them about such matters. Some parts of his letters are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction.
16Duen a kajokajoi nan a kijin likau karoj, a akai waja me apwal en dedeki, me jololekon o jo lolin akan kin kawukila, dueta ar pil kawukila majan tei kan, me pan kare on irail pein ar lokidokila.
17Therefore, beloved, since you already know these things, be on your guard so that you will not be carried away by the error of the lawless and fall from your secure standing.
17Kompok kan, pweki omail aja mepukat, komail kalaka, pwe komail der japun kila padak en me jued akan, ap pupedi jan kateneten komail.
18But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
18A komail kairida ni mak o lolekonki padak en atail Kaun o Jaunkamaur Iejuj Krijtuj. I me kon on en ale wau metet o kokolata lel on ni ran joutuk.
