Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1And in those days, the number of the disciples increasing, there arose a murmuring of the Greeks against the Hebrews, for that their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.
1A TOUNPADAK kan lao totolar ni ran pukat men Krik kai ap lipaned on men Ipru, aki jota me apwali ar li odi kan ni ar dodok en ran akan.
2Then the twelve calling together the multitude of the disciples, said: It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.
2Ekriamen oko ap molipe pena tounpadak kan majani: A jota mau on, jen muei jan majan en Kot, pwen papa ni tepel.
3Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
3Ari ri (at) akan, rapaki jan nan pun omail ol ijimen, me kalok mau, me dir en Nen (jaraui) o lolekon, me jen kajapwiladan dok wet!
4But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
4A kit pan apapwalita kapakap o dodok pan majan o.
5And the saying was liked by all the multitude. And they chose Stephen, a man full of faith, and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte of Antioch.
5Pokon o ari peren kida kaparok pot et. Re ap piladar Jtepanuj, ol amen, me dir en pojon o Nen jaraui, pil Pilipuj, o Prokoruj, o Nikanor, o Timon, o Parmenaj, o Nikolauj, projelite jan Antiokien amen.
6These they set before the apostles; and they praying, imposed hands upon them.
6Re kidan irail mon wanporon akan. Re lao kapakaper ap kidan po ’rail lim ar.
7And the word of the Lord increased; and the number of the disciples was multiplied in Jerusalem exceedingly: a great multitude also of the priests obeyed the faith.
7Majan en Kot ari pwaida kaualap, o tounpadak kan madan totolar nan lerujalem, o jamero toto pil ian lamalam o.
8And Stephen, full of grace and fortitude, did great wonders and signs among the people.
8A Jtepanuj, me dir en pojon o kelail, ap wiadar manaman o kilel laud kai nan pun en aramaj akan.
9Now there arose some of that which is called the synagogue of the Libertines, and of the Cyrenians, and of the Alexandrians, and of them that were of Cilicia and Asia, disputing with Stephen.
9A akai me udar, me kijan jinakoke en Liperti o men Kirene, omen Alekjandrien, o men Jilijia, o Ajien akamai on Jtepanuj.
10And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit that spoke.
10A re jota kak palian en Jtepanuj a kupurokon o Nen o, me audeda i.
11Then they suborned men to say, they had heard him speak words of blasphemy against Moses and against God.
11Irail ari pwain on ol akai, pwen katiti: Je roner, me a lalaue mojej o Kot.
12And they stirred up the people, and the ancients, and the scribes; and running together, they took him, and brought him to the council.
12I rail pil kamakarada aramaj, o jaumaj akai, o jaunkawewe, re ap jaikidi i o koledi, re ap wa don i mod en kadeik o,
13And they set up false witnesses, who said: This man ceaseth not to speak words against the holy place and the law.
13O kapwareda jaunkadede likam akai, me katitiki: Aramaj men et jota kin dukedi jan a lulaue waja jaraui et o kapun.
14For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the traditions which Moses delivered unto us.
14Pwe je roner, me a katitiki, me Iejuj en Najaret pan kawela waja et o kawilianla lamalam kan, me Mojej kotiki on kitail er.
15And all that sat in the council, looking on him, saw his face as if it had been the face of an angel.
15A karoj, me ian mod on kapun o, kankakil i, kajauiada, me jilan a dueta jilan en tounlan amen.
