Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1Then Jesus told them a parable about their need to pray at all times and not lose heart:
1A PIL kotin majani on irail karajeraj eu, me ren poden kapakap o der panada.
2“In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected men.
2A kotin majani: Jaunkapun amen mi nan kanim eu, me jota lan Kot, o jota injenoki aramaj amen.
3And there was a widow in that town who kept appealing to him, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’
3A li odi men mi nan kanim ota, me poto don i potoan on: Kom kotin jauaja ia on me kailon kin ia!
4For a while he refused, but later he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect men,
4A a kan maj o, a kadekadeo a monemoneloleki: Nan i jota lan Kot, o pil jota injenoki aramaj,
5yet because this widow keeps pestering me, I will give her justice. Then she will stop wearing me out with her perpetual requests.’”
5A pweki li odi men et a kadiropa ia. i pan jauaja i. pwender purodo kadiropa ia.
6And the Lord said, “Listen to the words of the unjust judge.
6Kaun o ap kotin majani: Komail ron, me jaunkapun japun indada!
7Will not God bring about justice for His elect who cry out to Him day and night? Will He continue to defer their help?
7A iaduen Kot, a jota pan kotin jauaja japwilim a pilipildar akan, me kin likelikwir on i ni ran o ni pon? Pala a pan kotin pwapwand?
8I tell you, He will promptly carry out justice on their behalf. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on earth?”
8I indai on komail: nan a pan madan jauaja ir. Ari jo, Nain aramaj lao pwarado, da, a pan diar pojon ni jappa?
9To some who trusted in their own righteousness and viewed others with contempt, He also told this parable:
9A pil kotin karajai on irail me kin aka punki pein irail, ap aka japunki me tei kan:
10“Two men went up to the temple to pray. One was a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
10Aramaj riamen kodala on nan im en kaudok pwen kapakap. Amen ira Parijar, a amen jaunopwei men.
11The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed, ‘God, I thank You that I am not like the other men—swindlers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector.
11Parijar o kajinenda kelepela ekij waja kapakap due met: Main Kot, i danke ir, me i jota dueta aramaj tei kan: Lolap, japun, kamal, de dueta jaunopwei men et.
12I fast twice a week and pay tithes of all that I acquire.’
12I kin kaikaijole pan riapak ni wik eu o koleireki eijokkij eu en ai kapwa karoj.
13But the tax collector stood at a distance, unwilling even to lift up his eyes to heaven. Instead, he beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner!’
13A jaunopwei u doo jan ekij waja, ap jota men jarada nanlan, a a pikir maramar a indada: Main Kot, re kotin kupura ia me dipan!
14I tell you, this man, rather than the Pharisee, went home justified. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”
14I indai on komail, ol men et kodila deu a punala mon me teio. Pwe me kin kajapwilada pein i, pan kajapwilidi, a me kin kajapwilidi pein i pan kajapwilada,
15Now people were even bringing their babies to Jesus for Him to place His hands on them. And when the disciples saw this, they rebuked those who brought them.
15Irail ap wa don i kijin jeri kai, pwen kotin jair ir. A japwilim a tounpadak kan lao kilaner, re ap kapoui irail.
16But Jesus called the children to Him and said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
16A Iejuj kotin molipe ir majani: Mueid on kijin jeri kan, en kodo re i! Der kalik irail edi! Pwe irail me udan wein Kot.
17Truly I tell you, anyone who does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”
17Melel I indai on komail, meamen, me jota ale wein Kot rajon kijin jeri men, a jota pan pedelon on lole.
18Then a certain ruler asked Him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
18A monjap amen idok re a majani: Jaunpadak mau, da me I en wiada, pwen jojoki maur joutuk?
19“Why do you call Me good?” Jesus replied. “No one is good except God alone.
19Iejuj ari kotin majani on i: Da me koe indaki, me I me mau? Jota me mau men, Kot eta.
20You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not bear false witness, honor your father and mother.’”
20Koe kin aja kujoned akan: Koe der kamal; koe der kamela aramaj; koe der pirap, koe der kinekine mal, kakaki jam om
21“All these I have kept from my youth,” he said.
21I ari indada: Nan mepukat karoj i kin wiawia jan ni ai tikitik kokodo.
22On hearing this, Jesus told him, “You still lack one thing: Sell everything you own and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”
22Iejuj lao mani mepukat, ap majani on i: Me ta kij me lua, netikila om kapwa karoj, o nene on me jamama kan, a om pai pan mi nanlan, ap kodo idauen ia do.
23But when the ruler heard this, he became very sad, because he was extremely wealthy.
23A lao ronadar met, ap injenjuede kila melel, pwe a kapwapwa kaualap.
24Seeing the man’s sadness, Jesus said, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!
24A Iejuj lao kotin majani, me a injenjuedela, ap majani: Nan me apwal on me kapwapwa kan, en pedelon on nan wein Kot.
25Indeed, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
25Pwe me manai, kamel en tilon nan por en dikok, jan ol kapwapwa men pedelon on nan wein Kot.
26Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?”
26Irail me roneron indada: Ari, ij me kak on maur?
27But Jesus said, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.”
27A kotin majani: Me aramaj akan jo kak on, Kot me pan kak on.
28“Look,” said Peter, “we have left all we had to follow You.”
28Petruj ap potoan on: Re kotin mani, kit me likid maliela meakaroj ap idauen la ir.
29“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God
29A kotin majani on irail: Melel I indai on komail, nan jota me likidmaliela im a, de jam, de in a, de ri a ol akan, de a paud, de na jeri kan pweki wein Kot,
30will fail to receive many times more in this age—and in the age to come, eternal life.”
30Me jo pan id aneki me lapalap ni anjau wet o ni muei kokodo maur joutuk.
31Then Jesus took the Twelve aside and said to them, “Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything the prophets have written about the Son of Man will be fulfilled.
31A kotin ukala ekriamen ko majani on irail: Kilan, kitail kin kodalan Ierujalem, o karoj pan pwaida, me intinidier ren jaukop akan duen Nain aramaj.
32He will be delivered over to the Gentiles and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon.
32Pwe a pan panala ren men liki kan, pwe re pan kapikapiti I o ki jan wau i, o kondipi on i.
33They will flog Him and kill Him, and on the third day He will rise again.”
33O re pan woki i o kamela, a ni kajilu en ran a pan maureda.
34But the disciples did not understand any of these things. The meaning was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend what He was saying.
34Irail ari jota man weweki mepukat, o majan pot et me rir jan irail. Re pil jaja, me a kotin majani.
35As Jesus drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting beside the road, begging.
35A kadekadeo ni a koren ion Ieriko, ol majkun amen momod pon kailan al, poekipoeki.
36When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening.
36I lao ronadar pokon o me daudaulul, ap idok due.
37“Jesus of Nazareth is passing by,” they told him.
37Irail ari indan i, me Iejuj men Najaret kotin daulul.
38So he called out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
38I ari nil laudeda potoan on: Iejuj, japwilim en Dawid, kotin kupura ia!
39Those who led the way admonished him to be silent, but he cried out all the louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
39A me tion moa kidekidaue i, en nenenla: a i ap kalaudela a poekipoeki: Japwilim en Dawid, kotin kupura ia!
40Jesus stopped and directed that the man be brought to Him. When he had been brought near, Jesus asked him,
40Iejuj ap kotin udi on waja o, majani, ol o en wijike don i. A lao koren ion imp a, ap kotin kainoma re a.
41“What do you want Me to do for you?” “Lord,” he said, “let me see again.”
41Majani: Da me koe men, I en wiai on uk? A potoan on: Main, i men potoan narada waja.
42“Receive your sight!” Jesus replied. “Your faith has healed you.”
42A Iejuj kotin majani on i: Kilan waja, om pojon me kakel uk ada!
43Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus, glorifying God. And all the people who saw this gave praise to God.
43Ap pitipit kilanada waja, o idauenla i, o kapina Kot, o aramaj karoj, me udial met, ap kapikapina Kot.
