Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye the account which I now give unto you.
1RI ai ko, jam ai ko komail, ron maj ai japen komail.
2(And when they heard that he spoke to them in the Hebrew tongue, they kept the more silence.)
2Irail lao roner, me a majani on irail ni lokaia en Ipru, re ap nenenla kaualap. I ari kotin majani.
3And he saith: I am a Jew, born at Tarsus in Cilicia, but brought up in this city, at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the truth of the law of the fathers, zealous for the law, as also all you are this day:
3Ol en Juj amen nai, me tikidar Tarjuj en Jilijia, a i kakairida nan kanim wet ni aluwilu en Kamaliel, padapadakki kapun en jam atail akan, o nantion poni poni Kot dueta komail kin wia ran wet.
4Who persecuted this way unto death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women.
4O i kawelar al pot et lel on kamelar aramaj, ni ai jaliedi o panalan imaten ol o li akan.
5As the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the ancients: from whom also receiving letters to the brethren, I went to Damascus, that I might bring them bound from thence to Jerusalem to be punished.
5Pwe iduen me jamero lapalap o jaumaj akan kin kadede kin ia, pwe i aleer jan irail kijin likau, on ri (atail) akan. I ap kolan Damajkuj, pwen pil jaliedi o wa don Ierujalem, me mi waja o, pwe ren kamekame.
6And it came to pass, as I was going, and drawing nigh to Damascus at midday, that suddenly from heaven there shone round about me a great light:
6A ni ai koko wei korendor Damajkuj, nin jauaj, marain eu kodido jan nanlan, jare ia da.
7And falling on the ground, I heard a voice saying to me: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
7Nai ari pupedi nani pwel o ronada nil eu, me majani on ia: Jaul, Jaul, da me koe kame kin ia?
8And I answered: Who art thou, Lord? And he said to me: I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.
8Nai ari potoan on: Ij komui Main? A kotin majani on ia: Nai Iejuj en Najaret, me koe kin kame.
9And they that were with me, saw indeed the light, but they heard not the voice of him that spoke with me.
9A me ian ia udialer marain o, ap majapwekadar, a re jota ron kapit en me majan don ia.
10And I said: What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said to me: Arise, and go to Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things that thou must do.
10Nai potoan on: Da me i en wiada Main? Kaun o ap kotin majani on ia: Paurida u kowei on Damajkuj, nan a pan kapare on uk waja o, me kaonop on uk er, en wiada.
11And whereas I did not see for the brightness of that light, being led by the hand by my companions, I came to Damascus.
11A i jolar kak kilan waja, aki linan en marain o, i ap daululan Damajkuj; me ian ia kalua kin ia pa i.
12And one Ananias, a man according to the law, having testimony of all the Jews who dwelt there,
12Ananiaj, ol lelapok amen duen kapun o, me kalok mau jli ren Juj akan karoj, me kaujon waja o,
13Coming to me, and standing by me, said to me: Brother Saul, look up. And I the same hour looked upon him.
13Ap ko don ia kajikajinen imp ai indai on ia: Ri ai Jauluj, kilanada waja! Ari, ni auer ota i jaradan i.
14But he said: The God of our fathers hath preordained thee that thou shouldst know his will, and see the Just One, and shouldst hear the voice from his mouth.
14I ari katitiki: Kot en jam atail akan, me pil uk adar, pwe koe en lolekonki a kupur, o udial me Pun o, o ron kapit en jllan i.
15For thou shalt be his witness to all men, of those things which thou hast seen and heard.
15Pwe koe pan japwilim a jaunkadede on aramaj karoj, duen me koe kilanadar o ronadar.
16And now why tarriest thou? Rise up, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, invoking his name.
16Ari, da me koe auiaui? Paurida o paptaijela, pwe dip om akan en widen jan, o jakarkidan mar a.
17And it came to pass, when I was come again to Jerusalem, and was praying in the temple, that I was in a trance,
17A kadekadeo i lao pwara don Ierujalem o kapakap nan im en kaudok o, i ap wukilar.
18And saw him saying unto me: Make haste, and get thee quickly out of Jerusalem; because they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.
18O i kilan i, me kotin majani on ia: Kananata, madana wei jan Ierujalem, pwe irail jota pan duki on om kadede kin ia.
19And I said: Lord, they know that I cast into prison, and beat in every synagogue, them that believed in thee.
19Nai ari potoan on: Main, pein irail aja, me i panalan nan imaten o woki nan jinakoke kan me kin pojon komui.
20And when the blood of Stephen thy witness was shed, I stood by and consented, and kept the garments of them that killed him.
20A ni japwilim ar jaunkadede Jtepanuj kamatalar, nai pil u impa o peren kidar a kamatalar, nekinekid likau en me kamatalar i ko.
21And he said to me: Go, for unto the Gentiles afar off, will I send thee.
21A ap kotin majani on ia: U ko wei, pwe I pan kadar uk ala waja doo ren men liki kan.
22And they heard him until this word, and then lifted up their voice, saying: Away with such an one from the earth; for it is not fit that he should live.
22Irail roneron i lel on majan pot et, ap nil laudeda indada: Jiken wei jan jappa lap men et! Pwe a jota mau on, i en momaureta!
23And as they cried out and threw off their garments, and cast dust into the air,
23A ni arail weriwerada, o kajelar ar likau, o kajadar pwelpar,
24The tribune commanded him to be brought into the castle, and that he should be scourged and tortured: to know for what cause they did so cry out against him.
24Kaun lapalap o ap majani, i en wijikelan nan im en jaunpei o majani, ren woki i, pwe i en lelapok kila, da me re weiwei lokeki i.
25And when they had bound him with thongs, Paul saith to the centurion that stood by him: Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman, and uncondemned?
25Irail lao jaliedi i, Pauluj ap idok ren kaun o, me u impa: Me pun, en woki aramaj en Rom amen, me kaikenta pakadei kadar?
26Which the centurion hearing, went to the tribune, and told him, saying: What art thou about to do? For this man is a Roman citizen.
26Kaun o lao ronada met, ap kola ren kaun lapalap o indada: Da me kom pan wiada, pwe aramaj men et men Rom amen.
27And the tribune coming, said to him: Tell me, art thou a Roman? But he said: Yea.
27Kaun lapalap o ap kodo indai on i: Katitiki on ia, ol en Rom amen komui? A japen: Ei.
28And the tribune answered: I obtained the being free of this city with a great sum. And Paul said: But I was born so.
28Kaun lapalap o japen: Pwai laud me i jaladok kilar. A Pauluj majani: A nai me tikidar jaladok.
29Immediately therefore they departed from him that were about to torture him. The tribune also was afraid after he understood that he was a Roman citizen, and because he had bound him.
29Me kodo kadeikada i, ap madan pure jan i, o kaun lapalap lao ajadar, me i ol en Rom amen, a pil majakadar, pweki a jaliedi i.
30But on the next day, meaning to know more diligently for what cause he was accused by the Jews, he loosed him, and commanded the priests to come together, and all the council: and bringing forth Paul, he set him before them.
30A mandan ran o a inon ion melel aja karep en Juj oko ar panala i, ap lapwada i o kapokon pena jamero lapalap o toun kapun o, ap wadila Pauluj o kotikidi on i mo ’rail.
