Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1Now I Paul myself beseech you, by the mildness and modesty of Christ, who in presence indeed am lowly among you, but being absent, am bold toward you.
1ARI pein nai Pauluj men panaui komail nin tiak en opampap o limpok en Krijtuj; pwe ni ai mi nan pun omail, i kin aktikitik, a ni ai doo wei ian komail, i kin kelail on komail
2But I beseech you, that I may not be bold when I am present, with that confidence wherewith I am thought to be bold, against some, who reckon us as if we walked according to the flesh.
2A i kin kapakapeki, pwe i ender kelail ni ai pan korendo; pwe i kileledier o lamelame, me I pan kelail on akai, me kin wia kin kit men kekeideki tiak en pali uduk.
3For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.
3Pwe melel, je kin mimita nan uduk, ap jota pepei ni tiak en uduk.
4For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty to God unto the pulling down of fortifications, destroying counsels,
4Pwe kapwa en at pei kaidin men ni pali uduk, pwe me manaman mon Kot, me mau on kawela waja teneten kan.
5And every height that exhalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every understanding unto the obedience of Christ;
5Ni at kin kawela me akapun o me aklapalap, me kin palian erpit en Kot; o kit kin jaliedi jon en lamelam karoj, pwen oke Krijtuj.
6And having in readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience shall be fulfilled.
6O audaude on kaloedi me katiwo karoj, omail peik lao pwanokadar.
7See the things that are according to outward appearance. If any man trust to himself, that he is Christ’s, let him think this again with himself, that as he is Christ’s, so are we also.
7Komail kin kilekilan meakan me janjal? Ma amen lamelame, me pein i japwilim en Krijtuj, I en pein lameda, me kit pil japwilim en Krijtuj dueta i.
8For if also I should boast somewhat more of our power, which the Lord hath given us unto edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed.
8Pwe ma i pan juaiki laude jan at manaman, me Kaun o kotiki on kit, pwen kamaui a kaidin kawe komail la, i jota pan namenokki.
9But that I may not be thought as it were to terrify you by epistles,
9Pwe ender janjal duen amen me men kamajak kin komail nai kijin likau kan,
10(For his epistles indeed, say they, are weighty and strong; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible,)
10Pwe irail me inda: Kijin likau kan me kajampwal o manaman, a janjal en pali war a me luet, o a padak me mal kot.
11Let such a one think this, that such as we are in word by epistles, when absent, such also we will be indeed when present.
11A me duen met a en aja duen at kin inda nan kijin likau kan ni at doo wei jan komail, iduen pein kit ni at wiawia kan nan pun omail.
12For we dare not match, or compare ourselves with some, that commend themselves; but we measure ourselves by ourselves, and compare ourselves with ourselves.
12Pwe kit jota man mauki waroki on me kin juaiki pein irail; a irail me jololekon, pweki ar jojon pein irail nan pun arail.
13But we will not glory beyond our measure; but according to the measure of the rule, which God hath measured to us, a measure to reach even unto you.
13A kit jota men juaiki me laud jan me kon on, a duen men jon eu, me Kot kotin ’pan on kit, jon eu, me itar lel on komail.
14For we stretch not ourselves beyond our measure, as if we reached not unto you. For we are come as far as to you in the gospel of Christ.
14Pwe kit jota inon ion, me jota kon on, dene je jota pwar won komail er, a je pil walan komail ronamau en Krijtuj.
15Not glorying beyond measure in other men’s labours; but having hope of your increasing faith, to be magnified in you according to our rule abundantly;
15Kit jota kin juaiki me laud jan me kon on, dene je juaiki en amen a dodok. A je kaporoporeki omail pojon lao kakairida, at dodok pil pan laud jan re omail,
16Yea, unto those places that are beyond you, to preach the gospel, not to glory in another man’s rule, in those things that are made ready to our hand.
16Pwen pil padaki ronamau nin jap akan palila jan komail, a kaidin wajan dodok on amen o jota juaiki me wiauier.
17But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
17A ma amen men juaiki, I en juaiki Kaun o.
18For not he who commendeth himself, is approved, but he, whom God commendeth.
18Pwe kaidin i meakot, me kin kapina pein i, pwe i eta, me Kaun o kin kapina.
