Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes and to his disciples,
1IEJUJ ap kotin kaparok on pokon o japwilim a tounpadak kan,
2Saying: The scribes and the Pharisees have sitten on the chair of Moses.
2Majani; Jaunkawewe o Parijar akan kin mondi nan deun Mojej.
3All things therefore whatsoever they shall say to you, observe and do: but according to their works do ye not; for they say, and do not.
3Ari, karoj me re indan komail, i me komail en wia o kapwaiada, a dor ale jaw ar wiawia kan; pwe irail kin indada, ap jota kapwaiada.
4For they bind heavy and insupportable burdens, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but with a finger of their own they will not move them.
4Re kin pira pena kapwa en wijik me toutou melel, ap kidan pon apar en aramaj, a irail jota men jairki jondin pa arail.
5And all their works they do for to be seen of men. For they make their phylacteries broad, and enlarge their fringes.
5O re kin kapwaiada ar wiawia kan karoj, pwe aramaj en ududial. Pwe irail kin kadalape ar kijin likau en kataman o kalaudela ni kailan ar likau.
6And they love the first places at feasts, and the first chairs in the synagogues,
6Irail kin nonki mondi ni tapin tepel ni kamadip o, o leppandam nan jinakoke kan.
7And salutations in the market place, and to be called by men, Rabbi.
7O re kin mauki, aramaj en ranamau on irail nan deun net, o aramaj en wia kin ir Rapi, Rapi,
8But be not you called Rabbi. For one is your master; and all you are brethren.
8A komail der wonki, aramaj en wia kin komail Rapi, pwe me ta men omail Jaunpadak, a komail pirien pena.
9And call none your father upon earth; for one is your father, who is in heaven.
9O komail der kaadaneki meamen jam nan jappa, pwe amen Jam omail, me kotikot nanlan.
10Neither be ye called masters; for one is you master, Christ.
10O komail der nonki, aramaj en wia kin komail jaumaj, pwe me ta men omail Jaumaj: Krijtuj.
11He that is the greatest among you shall be your servant.
11A me lapalap re omail, en omail papa.
12And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled: and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
12Pwe me pan kajapwilada pein i, pan japwilidi, a me pan Kujapwilidi pein i, pan kajapwilada.
13But woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you shut the kingdom of heaven against men, for you yourselves do not enter in; and those that are going in, you suffer not to enter.
13Juedi on komail jaunkawewe o Parijar akan, malaun komail! Komail kin ritinidi wein nanlan mon aramaj akan, pwe komail jota pan pedelon, a me men pedelon, komail jota kin mueid on.
14Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: because you devour the houses of widows, praying long prayers. For this you shall receive the greater judgment.
14Juedi on komail jaunkawewe o Parijar akan, malaun komail! Komail me nopur jan im en li odi kan ap liliajoj kapakap reirei. Omail kalokolok pan laud melel.
15Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you go round about the sea and the land to make one proselyte; and when he is made, you make him the child of hell twofold more than yourselves.
15Juedi on komail jaunkawewe o Parijar akan, malaun komail! Komail kin pidipidaki jed o jap, pwen wiada projelit amen, a lao wialar, komail ap pan wia kin i toun pweleko amen, me jued jan komail.
16Woe to you blind guides, that say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but he that shall swear by the gold of the temple, is a debtor.
16Juedi on komail jaunkalua majkun, komail me kin inda: Meamen kin kaukila im en kaudok, dene jota katepa, a me kin kaukila kold en im en kaudok, i me pun.
17Ye foolish and blind; for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
17Komail pweipwei o majkun, pwe da me kajampwal ren kold de im en kaudok o, me kin kajarauiala kold?
18And whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gift that is upon it, is a debtor.
18O meamen kin kaukila pei jaraui, dene jota katepa, a me kaukila mairon, me mi poa dene I me pun,
19Ye blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
19Komail pweipwei o majkun, pwe da me kajampwal ren mairon de pei jaraui, me kin kajarauiala mairon?
20He therefore that sweareth by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things that are upon it:
20Ari, meamen kaukila pei jaraui, kin kaukila i o meakan, me mi poa.
21And whosoever shall swear by temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth in it:
21O meamen kaukila im en kaudok, kin kaukila i ianaki i me kotikot lole.
22And he that sweareth by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.
22O me kaukila nanlan, kin kaukila mol en Kot o me kin kaipokedi on poa.
23Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you tithe mint, and anise, and cummin, and have left the weightier things of the law; judgment, and mercy, and faith. These things you ought to have done, and not to leave those undone.
23Juedi on komail jaunkawewe o Parijar akan, malaun komail! Komail kin maironki eijokkij eu en minje, o til, o kimel, ap jota injenoki kujoned en kapun kajampwal akan: Pun, o kadek, o pojon. Komail wiada mepukat, ap pil kapwaiada me tei kan!
24Blind guides, who strain out a gnat, and swallow a camel.
24Jaunkalua majkun komail, me kin ijenoki kijin am enwel, ap katalala kamel!
25Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you make clean the outside of the cup and of the dish, but within you are full of rapine and uncleanness.
25Juedi on komail jaunkawewe o Parijar akan, malaun komail! Pwe komail kin kamakelekel kajak o dal liki, a lol me dir en me re kuliada o me jued.
26Thou blind Pharisee, first make clean the inside of the cup and of the dish, that the outside may become clean.
26Parijar majkun koe, kamakelekele maj lol en kajak o dal akan, pwe pali liki en pil makelekeleda!
27Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you are like to whited sepulchres, which outwardly appear to men beautiful, but within are full of dead men’s bones, and of all filthiness.
27Juedi on komail jaunkawewe o Parijar akan, malaun komail! Komail rajon joujou kan, me jementen, me kin janjal kajelel, a lole me dir en ti en me melar akan o jow en jaut karoj.
28So you also outwardly indeed appear to men just; but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
28I duen komail, me janjal pun mon aramaj, a lole komail me dir en malaun o japun.
29Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; that build the sepulchres of the prophets, and adorn the monuments of the just,
29Juedi on komail jaunkawewe o Parijar akan, malaun komail! Pwe komail kin apapwali joujou en jaukop akan o kapwataki joujou en me pun kan.
30And say: If we had been in the days of our Fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
30Ap inda: Ma kit mia ni muein jam atail akan, kit jota pan ian irail kamela jaukop akan.
31Wherefore you are witnesses against yourselves, that you are the sons of them that killed the prophets.
31Ari, pein komail kin kadede, me komail nain me kamelar jaukop akan.
32Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
32A komail kaunjokala wiawia en jam omail akan!
33You serpents, generation of vipers, how will you flee from the judgment of hell?
33Komail jerpent o wan oter akan! Pala komail pan piti jan kadeik en nan pweleko?
34Therefore behold I send to you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them you will put to death and crucify, and some you will scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city:
34Kilan, i me I kadara don komail jaukop akai, o me lolekon kai, o jaunkawewe kai; a akai irail, me komail pan kamela, o kalopuela, o akai komail pan kaloke nan omail jinakoke kan, o komail pan paki irail jan nan eu kanim on nan eu.
35That upon you may come all the just blood that hath been shed upon the earth, from the blood of Abel the just, even unto the blood of Zacharias the son of Barachias, whom you killed between the temple and the altar.
35Pwen kapokon on komail nta makelekel karoj, me kapwilipwilidier nan jappa jan ntan Apel pun kokodo lei ntan Jakariaj, nain Parakiaj, me komail kamelar nan pun en im en kaudok o pei jaraui.
36Amen I say to you, all these things shall come upon this generation.
36Melel I indai on komail, mepukat pan pwai on di wet.
37Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered together thy children, as the hen doth gather her chickens under her wings, and thou wouldest not?
37O Ierujalem, Ierujalem, me kin kamela jaukop akan o kate me pakadara don uk kan; pan pak toto. me I pan kapokon pena noumail akan, duen litok kin kompwal pena na purok kan pan pa a, a komail kan.
38Behold, you house shall be left to you, desolate.
38Kilan, im omail pan tanla.
39For I say to you, you shall not see me henceforth till you say: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
39Pwe I indai on komail, komail jolar pan kilan ia jan ni anjau wet, lao komail pan inda: Meid iajanai, me kotido ni mar en Kaun o!
