Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1Let every soul be subject to higher powers: for there is no power but from God: and those that are, are ordained of God.
1AMEN amen en upa kaun akan, me kin poe irail edi, pwe jota kaun akan me jota jan ren Kot, a waja kaun akan mia, nan irail me ren Kot.
2Therefore he that resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God. And they that resist, purchase to themselves damnation.
2Ari, me pan katiwo on kaun akan kin katiwo on kujoned en Kot, a me katiwo kan, pan lodi on kapun.
3For princes are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? Do that which is good: and thou shalt have praise from the same.
3Pwe jaupeidi kan jota kin kamajakki, me kin wia mau, pwe me kin wia me jued. A ma koe jota men majak kaun akan, en wiada me mau, koe ap pan indandeki pa ’rail.
4For he is God’s minister to thee, for good. But if thou do that which is evil, fear: for he beareth not the sword in vain. For he is God’s minister: an avenger to execute wrath upon him that doth evil.
4Pwe a papan Kot o iei me mau on uk, a ma koe wia me jued, majak, pwe a jota kin wa mal kodlaj. Pwe a papan Kot o, pwen kame me wia jued.
5Wherefore be subject of necessity, not only for wrath, but also for conscience’ sake.
5lei me komail en peiki on, a kaidin pweki kamekam a pweki injen omail.
6For therefore also you pay tribute. For they are the ministers of God, serving unto this purpose.
6Iei me komail pil wiai on nopwei, pwe irail me papan Kot, me kin kaukaule papa wet.
7Render therefore to all men their dues. Tribute, to whom tribute is due: custom, to whom custom: fear, to whom fear: honour, to whom honour.
7Komail ari kapunala omail pwaipwand on amen amen! Takjij on me takjij kin wiaui on, nopwei on me nopwei kin wiaui on; majak, me majak kin ko on; ki on wau, me wau kin ko on.
8Owe no man any thing, but to love one another. For he that loveth his neighbour, hath fulfilled the law.
8Der pwaipwandeki meakot on amen; iet eta: Omail limpok pena, pwe me kin pok on amen, kin kapwaiada kapun o.
9For Thou shalt not commit adultery: Thou shalt not kill: Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness: Thou shalt not covet: and if there be any other commandment, it is comprised in this word, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
9Pwe iet akan: Koe der kamal! Koe der kamela aramaj! Koe der pirap! Koe der norok! o ma pil eu kujoned mia, iet orlepa: Koe en pok on men imp om due pein uk!
10The love of our neighbour worketh no evil. Love therefore is the fulfilling of the law.
10Limpok jota kin wia jued on men imp a. Ari, limpok audepan kapun.
11And that knowing the season; that it is now the hour for us to rise from sleep. For now our salvation is nearer than when we believed.
11O pil met: Kitail en dedeki duen anjau o, pwe auer leler, me kitail en pirida jan mair, pwe anjaun atail dorela me koren jan ni tapin atail pojon.
12The night is passed, and the day is at hand. Let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and put on the armour of light.
12Ponpon daulier, a ran me korendor. Kitail en pwilikidi wiawian rotorot akan, ap ale tatan marain.
13Let us walk honestly, as in the day: not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and impurities, not in contention and envy:
13Kitail en kekeid ni tiak mau, pwe ni ran; der kaped en mana de kamom joko, der jamin de jaut, de luak, de peirin.
14But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh in its concupiscences.
14A komail ale Kaun lejuj Krijtuj, o der kanonala pali uduk, pwen aneda a inon jued.
