Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1And when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.
1IRA kotin weid nan Ampipolij o Apolonia, ap pwara don Tejalonik, waja jinakoke en Juj oko mi ia.
2And Paul, according to his custom, went in unto them; and for three sabbath days he reasoned with them out of the scriptures:
2Pauluj ap kotilon on re ’rail duen a kin wiawia o ian ir kapakaparok pena jan kijin likau kan ni ran en japat jilu.
3Declaring and insinuating that the Christ was to suffer, and to rise again from the dead; and that this is Jesus Christ, whom I preach to you.
3A kotin padaki o kajaleda, me Krijtuj udan kalokolok o iajada jan ren me melar akan, o me Iejuj men et, me i kawewe on komail, me Krijtuj.
4And some of them believed, and were associated to Paul and Silas; and of those that served God, and of the Gentiles a great multitude, and of noble women not a few.
4O akai irail me pojonla ap waroki on Pauluj i Jilaj, o pil men Krik lelapok me toto, o li jaupeidi me kaidin me malaulau.
5But the Jews, moved with envy, and taking unto them some wicked men of the vulgar sort, and making a tumult, set the city in an uproar; and besetting Jason’s house, sought to bring them out unto the people.
5A Juj oko pepeirindar, ap ukada ol jued kai, o kapokon irail pena o kapeida kanim o, o kapil pena im en Iajon, pwen wa ira don pokon o.
6And not finding them, they drew Jason and certain brethren to the rulers of the city, crying: They that set the city in an uproar, are come hither also;
6Irail lao jo diar ira da re ap waikelon don jaumaj akan en kanim o Iajon o jaulan kai indada: Mepukat kamokimo kidadar jappa, nan ira pil pwara dor met.
7Whom Jason hath received; and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.
7A Iajon kajamo ira er, o irail karoj kin tiakedi majan en Jija ni ar katitiki, me dene amen Nanmarki Iejuj.
8And they stirred up the people, and the rulers of the city hearing these things,
8Irail ari kamakaradar aramaj o jaumaj akan nan kanim o ni ar ronadar mepukat.
9And having taken satisfaction of Jason and of the rest, they let them go.
9Irail lao aleer jan ren Iajon o me tei kan ar kapwa, re ap kadar ira la.
10But the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea. Who, when they were come thither, went into the synagogue of the Jews.
10A jaulan kan madan kadarala Pauluj i Jilaj ni pon Peroa. Irail lao pwarado, ap kotilon on nan jinakoke en Juj oko.
11Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, who received the word with all eagerness, daily searching the scriptures, whether these things were so.
11Mepukat me mau jan irail nan Tejalonik, pwe re pitipit aleer majan o pereperen kalelapokki kijin likau ni ran karoj, ma melel mepukat.
12And many indeed of them believed, and of honourable women that were Gentiles, and of men not a few.
12Ari, me toto irail pojonlar, li o ol en Krik kan kijan jaupeidi me toto ian.
13And when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was also preached by Paul at Berea, they came thither also, stirring up and troubling the multitude.
13A men Juj en Tejalonik ko lao roner, me Pauluj pil padapadak nan Peroa majan en Kot, irail ap kodo o kamakaradar aramaj akan.
14And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul, to go unto the sea; but Silas and Timothy remained there.
14A jaulan kan madan kadarala Pauluj, dene a pan kotidila ni oror. A Jilaj i Timoteuj mimieta waja o.
15And they that conducted Paul, brought him as far as Athens; and receiving a commandment from him to Silas and Timothy, that they should come to him with all speed, they departed.
15O me pelikid Pauluj akan kalua i lel Aten. Irail lao aleer kujoned on Jilaj o Timoteuj, me ira en pitipit ko don i, re ap jamalar.
16Now whilst Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred within him, seeing the city wholly given to idolatry.
16A ni en Pauluj a kotin auiaui ira nan Aten kupura ap ola ni a majani nan kanim o dikedik en ani rok ia.
17He disputed, therefore, in the synagogue with the Jews, and with them that served God, and in the marketplace, every day with them that were there.
17I ari kotin padaki on Juj oko o me toun kaudok kan nan jinakoke pil wajan net, me a kotin padaki on, me kin pokon pena waja o ni ran akan karoj.
18And certain philosophers of the Epicureans and of the Stoics disputed with him; and some said: What is it, that this word sower would say? But others: He seemeth to be a setter forth of new gods; because he preached to them Jesus and the resurrection.
18A jaunpadak en Epikurioj o Jtoik kai ap akamai on i o akai indada: Da paupaulap men et men inda? O akai indada: Likamata i jaunpadak en kot en wai akan aki a padaki on irail ronamau en Iejuj o en aramaj ar pan maureda.
19And taking him, they brought him to the Areopagus, saying: May we know what this new doctrine is, which thou speakest of?
19Irail ari ukada i o wai an Areopak indada: Kit jota pan kak ron duen padak kap pot et, me koe kin kaweweda?
20For thou bringest in certain new things to our ears. We would know therefore what these things mean.
20Pwe kajoi en wai pot, me kom wa don kit, kit ari men weweki duen mepukat.
21(Now all the Athenians, and strangers that were there, employed themselves in nothing else, but either in telling or in hearing some new thing.)
21Pwe toun Aten o men wai kan, me mi waja o, kin jopijokki ar kajokajoi o roneron duen meakaroj me kap.
22But Paul standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said: Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are too superstitious.
22A Pauluj kotida pon dol en marj majani: Komail ol oko en Aten, i kajauiadar, me komail kin majak kaualap kot likam akan,
23For passing by, and seeing your idols, I found an altar also, on which was written: To the unknown God. What therefore you worship, without knowing it, that I preach to you:
23Pwe ni ai koko jili met, o kilekilaner omail jaraui kan, i ap diaradar pei jaraui eu, me intinidier poa: Japwilim en kot me jo diarokadar, me komail kin kaudoki on ap jaja i, i me I kin padapadaki on komail.
24God, who made the world, and all things therein; he, being Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;
24Kot me kotin wiadar jappa o audepa karoj i me Kaun en nanlan o jappa, nan a jota kotikot nan im en kaudok kan me aramaj wiadar.
25Neither is he served with men’s hands, as though he needed any thing; seeing it is he who giveth to all life, and breath, and all things:
25O jota me kin upaki i p a en aramaj likamata a kotin anane meakot; pwe pein i kin kotin nene on karoj maur, o ajinok o meakaroj.
26And hath made of one, all mankind, to dwell upon the whole face of the earth, determining appointed times, and the limits of their habitation.
26O a kotin wiadar wein aramaj en jappa karoj kaparapar jan nta ta ieu, pwen kaukaujon nan jap karoj, o a kotin kiledier warai o wajan ar kaujon.
27That they should seek God, if happily they may feel after him or find him, although he be not far from every one of us:
27Pwe ren raparapaki Kot, ma ir kak pam o diar i, pwe a jota kin doo jan amen amen kitail.
28For in him we live, and move, and are; as some also of your own poets said: For we are also his offspring.
28Pwe i me kitail kin memaureki, o mokideki, o mimiaki, duen akai omail jaunkaul pil indadar: Pwe kij a kitail karoj.
29Being therefore the offspring of God, we must not suppose the divinity to be like unto gold, or silver, or stone, the graving of art, and device of man.
29Ari, ma kitail kijan Kot, kitail ender lamelame, me Kot rajon kold, de jilper, de takai, de dikedik eu, me aramaj lolekon diaradar.
30And God indeed having winked at the times of this ignorance, now declareth unto men, that all should every where do penance.
30Ari, kot kotin kanonama on kitail ni anjaun atail rotorot. A anjau wet a kotin majani on aramaj karoj, ren kalula waja karoj.
31Because he hath appointed a day wherein he will judge the world in equity, by the man whom he hath appointed; giving faith to all, by raising him up from the dead.
31Pwe a kotin kileledier ran eu, me a pan kotin kadeika kida jappa Ol amen, me a kotin katororedar ni tiak pun. A iet kilel, me a kotiki on aramaj karoj: A kotin kaiajadar i jan ren me melar akan.
32And when they had heard of the resurrection of the dead, some indeed mocked, but others said: We will hear thee again concerning this matter.
32Irail lao ronadar duen mauredan me melar akan akai ap lalaue, a akai inda: Je men pur on ron jan komui duen met.
33So Paul went out from among them.
33Pauluj ari kotila jan re ’rail.
34But certain men adhering to him, did believe; among whom was also Dionysius, the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.
34A ol akai waroki on i o pojonlar. Amen ir Dionijiuj kijan jaunkapun kan; a li amen, me ad a Damarij, o pil akai ian irail.
