Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1Then Jesus began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a wine vat, and built a watchtower. Then he rented it out to some tenants and went away on a journey.
1A AP kotin tapiada padaki irail ni karajeraj akan: Aramaj amen me padukedi mat en krep eu o kele pena, ap weirada deun wunit krep eu, o kauada im en jilajil eu, ap mueidalan jaumat akai, ap momaitelan nan wai.
2At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard.
2Kadekadeo anjaun rak, a ap kadaralan jaumat oko ladu amen, pwen ale ren jaumat oko kijan wan matuel o.
3But they seized the servant, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.
3Re ap jaikidi, kame o ari, kadarala kaip.
4Then he sent them another servant, and they struck him over the head and treated him shamefully.
4A ap pil kadaralan irail amen ladu, re ap kate, pwalan on mona, ap kadarala i kajaroela.
5He sent still another, and this one they killed. He sent many others; some they beat and others they killed.
5A ap pil kadarala amen; re ap kamela; pil me toto re woki akai, a re kamela akai.
6Finally, having one beloved son, he sent him to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.
6Ari, na ieroj eu, me a pokepoke, i me a kadarala ikmuri, a majani: Re pan wauneki nai ol.
7But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
7A jaumat pukat inda pena nan pun arail: Jeri en jojo met; na, kitail en kamela! Ari, kitail ap pan id aneki jojo o;
8So they seized the son, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.
8Re ap ale, kamela, kajewei jan nan mat en krep.
9What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants, and will give the vineyard to others.
9Ari, da me jaumaj en mat o pan wia? A pan kodo, kamela jaumat oko; a ap pan mueid on akai matuel o.
10Have you never read this Scripture: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.
10Komail jota wadoker kijin Iikau et: Takai, me jauje kan kajapokelar ap id wialar takai en pukakaim?
11This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?”
11Mepukat wiauier ren Kaun o, men kapuriamui patail.
12At this, the leaders sought to arrest Jesus, for they knew that He had spoken this parable against them. But fearing the crowd, they left Him and went away.
12Irail ari jojon pwen jaikidi i, a re majak aramaj akan, pwe re aja, me a karajeraje kin irail. Irail ari kokola jan re a.
13Later, they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to catch Jesus in His words.
13Irail ap kadaralan re a Parijar o ian en Erodej akai, pwen kajapune i jan ni a majan.
14“Teacher,” they said, “we know that You are honest and seek favor from no one. Indeed, You are impartial and teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not? Should we pay them or not?”
14Ari, ni ar kodo, re potoan on i: Jaunpadak, je aja, me komui me melel o jota injenoki meamen. Pwe komui jota lipilipil maj en aramaj, a kom kaukawewe al en Kot ni me pun. Me pun, en nopweiki moni on nanmarki de jo? Je en kida, de je ender kida?
15But Jesus saw through their hypocrisy and said, “Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a denarius to inspect.”
15A a kotin mani ar malaun majani on irail: Menda komail jonejon ia? Wa don ia eu denar en, pwe I en kilan.
16So they brought it, and He asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.
16Irail ap wado. A ap kotin majani on irail: Mom o intin en ij met akan? Irail potoan on i: En nanmarki.
17Then Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” And they marveled at Him.
17lejuj ap kotin japen, majani on irail: Ari, komail ki on nanmarki me nain nanmarki, o on Kot me japwilim en Kot. Re ap puriamui kila i.
18Then the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and questioned Him:
18Jadujar akai ap ko don re a, me kin inda me dene jota me pan maureda jan mela. Re ap peidok re a indada:
19“Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man is to marry his brother’s widow and raise up offspring for him.
19Jaunpadak, Mojej intine don kit er, ma ri en ol amen mela, kidi a paud, jota na jeri ko, a ri a ol ap pan id ale a paud, pwen wiada kadaudok a on ri a ol o.
20Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died, leaving no children.
20Ari pirien, ol ijimen mia. Men maj re ’rail paude kida li amen ap melar, jota kadaudok a.
21Then the second one married the widow, but he also died and left no children. And the third did likewise.
21Men muri ap id ale, ap melar, pil jota kadaudok a. A kajilimen pil dueta.
22In this way, none of the seven left any children. And last of all, the woman died.
22A irail ijimen oko paude kida i, jota kadaudok a. Ari, murin karoj li o ari pil melar.
23In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”
23Ran en iajada ni ar pan maureda, ij me pan paudeki i re ’rail, pwe irail ijimen oko paude kier i?
24Jesus said to them, “Aren’t you mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God?
24lejuj ap kotin japen, majani on irail: Omail jota lelapokki kijin likau kan o rojon en Kot, kaidik iei me kareda omail jaj kida?
25When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven.
25Pwe irail pan lao maureda jan ren me melar akan, re jola pan papaud de kapapaud. A re pan duela tounlan kan me mimi nanlan.
26But concerning the dead rising, have you not read about the burning bush in the Book of Moses, how God told him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?
26Ari, duen me melar akan ar pan maureda, komail jota wadoker nan puk en Mojej, duen Kot a kotin majani on i nan wel en tuka o: Nai Kot en Apraain, o Kot en Ijaak, o Kot en Iakop!
27He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!”
27Kaidin i Kot en me melar akan, pwe Kot en memaureta! Iei, me komail jaj kida kaualap.
28Now one of the scribes had come up and heard their debate. Noticing how well Jesus had answered them, he asked Him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?”
28Ari, amen ren jaunkawewe kan ap potodo, me roner duen ar kapakaparok pena, ap kajauiada, me a pajapen me inen, ap idok re a: Ia mo en kujoned karoj?
29Jesus replied, “This is the most important: ‘Hear O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.
29lejuj ari majani on i: Iet mo en kujoned akan: Ron Ijrael! Kaun patail Kot me Kaun me ta men.
30Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’
30Ari, koe en poke ki on Kaun, om Kot, monion om unjok, o nen om unjok, o om lamelam unjok, o om kel unjok! lei met me mo en kujoned akan.
31The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.”
31A kariau me dueta. let et: Koe en pok on men imp om due pein koe! Jota eu kujoned me lapajan mepukat.
32“Right, Teacher,” the scribe replied. “You have stated correctly that God is One and there is no other but Him,
32Jaunkawewe ap potoan on i: Me mau Jaunpadak! Melel me kom majani en! Pwe i me ta men, a jota pil amen, pwe i ota!
33and to love Him with all your heart and with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself, which is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
33O poke ki on i monion unjok, o lamelam unjok, o nen unjok, o kel unjok, o pok, on men impa due pein i, mau jan mairon ijij o mairon tei kan.
34When Jesus saw that the man had answered wisely, He said, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And no one dared to question Him any further.
34Ni en Iejuj a kotin majani a pajapen a inen, a ap majani on i: Kom jota doo jan wein Kot. Ari, ap jolar, me men pil idok re a meakot.
35While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts, He asked, “How can the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?
35Iejuj ap pil kotin japen majani ni a kotin kaukawewe nan im en kaudok o: Da me jaunkawewe kan indaki, me Krijtuj nain Dawid?
36Speaking by the Holy Spirit, David himself declared: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand until I put Your enemies under Your feet.”’
36Pwe pein Dawid majaniki ren Nen jaraui: Kaun o kotin majani on ai Kaun: Kom kotidi on pali maun i, I lao wia kida wutipan aluwilu omui om imwintiti kan!
37David himself calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?” And the large crowd listened to Him with delight.
37Ari, Dawid pein kaadaneki I Kaun; a daduen a wia na? Aramaj akan ap mauki a padak.
38In His teaching Jesus also said, “Watch out for the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, to receive greetings in the marketplaces,
38A ap kotin majani on irail ni a padak: Kalaka jaunkawewe kan, me mauki mi nan likau reirei o men, re en ranmaui ir nan wajan net.
39and to have the chief seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.
39O men mod leppantam nan jinakoke kan o kamadip.
40They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.”
40O noper jan li odi im ar, ap liliajoj kapakap reirei. Irail pan lodi on kadeik lapalap.
41As Jesus was sitting opposite the treasury, He watched the crowd putting money into it. And many rich people put in large amounts.
41Iejuj ap kotikot jal on deun moni en mairon, ap mamajani, en aramaj ar kajedi on moni nan deu o. A me toto, me kapwapwa, kajedi on me toto.
42Then one poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which amounted to a small fraction of a denarius.
42Li odi jamama ap kodo o kajedi on kijin moni riakij, me wiada kwadranj eu.
43Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more than all the others into the treasury.
43A ap kotin molipedo japwilim a tounpadak kan, majani on ir: Melel I indai on komail, me liodi jamama men et kajedi on me laude jan irail karoj, me pil kajedi on nan deun moni o.
44For they all contributed out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty has put in all she had to live on.”
44Pwe karoj kajedi on jan ni ar pai. A i me kajedi on jan ni a jamama, karoj me a, i eta a mana.
