Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1And after five days the high priest Ananias came down, with some of the ancients, and one Tertullus an orator, who went to the governor against Paul.
1A MURIN ran limau jamero lapalap Ananiaj kotido ianaki jaumaj akai, o jaunlokaia men, me ad a Tertuluj; irail weiwei loke Pauluj ren kopina.
2And Paul being called for, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying: Whereas through thee we live in much peace, and many things are rectified by thy providence,
2A lao wijikedo, Tertuluj ap pikikidi weiweiloke i indada:
3We accept it always and in all places, most excellent Felix, with all thanksgiving.
3Kit ajaer duen muein popol re omui o duen kamau toto kan on toun wei wet, pweki omui kalanan main Pelikj. O i me j e kapikapina kin komui anjau o waja karoj.
4But that I be no further tedious to thee, I desire thee of thy clemency to hear us in few words.
4A i jota men kapanai komui, iet eta me i poeki re omui: Komui en kotin mani kit duen omui kalanan.
5We have found this to be a pestilent man, and raising seditions among all the Jews throughout the world, and author of the sedition of the sect of the Nazarenes.
5Pwe je diaradar, me ol men et me morjued o me kin kapeida Juj akan karoj, me mi jappa, o i me jaumaj en pwin likam en Najaret,
6Who also hath gone about to profane the temple: whom, we having apprehended, would also have judged according to our law.
6Me pil jon kajaminela im en kaudok o, i me je koledi i, pwen kadeikada, duen at kapun o.
7But Lysias the tribune coming upon us, with great violence took him away out of our hands;
7A monjap Lijiaj kotin pwarado, kotiki jan i nan pa at ki a manaman lapalap,
8Commanding his accusers to come to thee: of whom thou mayest thyself, by examination, have knowledge of all these things, whereof we accuse him.
8Majani on me weiweiloke i, en poto don re omui, a komui lao kalekalelapok re irail, kom pan pein mani duen meakan, me je pan kila i.
9And the Jews also added, and said that these things were so.
9A Juj oko pil weiweiloke Pauluj indada: Mepukat melel!
10Then Paul answered, (the governor making a sign to him to speak:) Knowing that for many years thou hast been judge over this nation, I will with good courage answer for myself.
10A kopina lao olol on Pauluj, en kaparok, a ap kotin japen majani: Ni ai ajaer, me komui jaunkapun pan toun wei wet jaunpar toto, i peren kida, ai pan indinda duen pein nai.
11For thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve days, since I went up to adore in Jerusalem:
11Pwe komui pan mani, me pon naul ria pon eta, me i kodalan Ierujalem pwen kaudok.
12And neither in the temple did they find me disputing with any man, or causing any concourse of the people, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city:
12A irail jota diar ia da lokaia on amen nan im en kaudok, de kapeida aramaj oko nan jinakoke kan de nan kanim o.
13Neither can they prove unto thee the things whereof they now accuse me.
13O re pil jota kak kadede, me re pan kin ia la met.
14But this I confess to thee, that according to the way, which they call a heresy, so do I serve the Father and my God, believing all things which are written in the law and the prophets:
14A iet eta, me i men kadede on komui, ni ai kin kamelele karoj, me intinidier nan jaukop akan o kapun o, i kin kaudoki on Kot en jam ai kan duen tiak en ir, me re kaadaneki pwin likam.
15Having hope in God, which these also themselves look for, that there shall be a resurrection of the just and unjust.
15O i kaporoporeki Kot me irail pil kamelele me melar akan pan maureda, me pun o me japun kan.
16And herein do I endeavour to have always a conscience without offence toward God, and towards men.
16A i me i kin jojonki pein nai, pwe lol i en pun mon Kot o aramaj akan.
17Now after many years, I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings, and vows.
17A murin par toto i kodon wa don toun jap wet kijakij eu o wiadar mairon.
18In which I was found purified in the temple: neither with multitude, nor with tumult.
18I anjau, me re diar ia makelekeladar nan im en kaudok o jota weriwer de moromoron.
19But certain Jews of Asia, who ought to be present before thee, and to accuse, if they had any thing against me:
19A ir pukat Juj akai nan Ajien menda re jota mi met mo ’mui, kadede nai, ma re diar me jued kot re i?
20Or let these men themselves say, if they found in me any iniquity, when standing before the council,
20De mepukat en pein kajanjaleda japun da, me re diar re i ni ai mi mon kapun o.
21Except it be for this one voice only that I cried, standing among them, Concerning the resurrection of the dead am I judged this day by you.
21A iet eta lepen lokaia, me i kida ni ai udar nan pun ar indada: En me melar akan ar pan maureda, i pan pakadeikki ran wet re omail.
22And Felix put them off, having most certain knowledge of this way, saying: When Lysias the tribune shall come down, I will hear you.
22A Pelikj lao ereki mepukat, pwe a mani mau duen al pot et, ap kajau ir wei majani: Kaun Lijiaj lao kotido, i ap pan kaimwijokela omail kapun.
23And he commanded a centurion to keep him, and that he should be easy, and that he should not prohibit any of his friends to minister unto him.
23I ap majani on kaun en kolekol Pauluj o kajaladokela i, o ender inapwiedi ian a kan, en kodon papa i.
24And after some days, Felix, coming with Drusilla his wife, who was a Jew, sent for Paul, and heard of him the faith, that is in Christ Jesus.
24A murin ran akai Pelikj pwarado, a paud Drujila ian i, iei li en Juj amen, ap molipedo Pauluj o karone i duen lamalam en Krijtuj.
25And as he treated of justice, and chastity, and of the judgment to come, Felix being terrified, answered: For this time, go thy way: but when I have a convenient time, I will send for thee.
25A ni a kapakaparok duen pun, o makelekel, o kadeik, me pan wiaui, Pelikj ap majapwe kadar o japen: U kowei anjau wet, i lao pijokalar, i pan eker uk do.
26Hoping also withal, that money should be given him by Paul; for which cause also oftentimes sending for him, he spoke with him.
26A pil kaporoporeki, me Pauluj pan kotiki on i moni, pwen lapwada i; i me a purepure ekeker kido i o kajokajoi on i.
27But when two years were ended, Felix had for successor Portius Festus. And Felix being willing to shew the Jews a pleasure, left Paul bound.
27A murin par riau Porjiuj Pejtuj japwiladar wiliandi Pelikj. A Pelijk men konekon ren Juj oko, ap jota lapwada Pauluj.
