Men Korint I 9
Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1KAIDIN nai maiodar? Kaidin wanporon amen nai? I jota udialer Iejuj atail Kaun? Kaidin ai wiawia pan Kaun o komail?
1Am not I free? Am not I an apostle? Have not I seen Christ Jesus our Lord? Are not you my work in the Lord?
2Ma i jota wanporon amen on me tei ko, a on komail; pwe komail kajale pan ai koa en wanporon pan Kaun o.
2And if unto others I be not an apostle, but yet to you I am. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.
3Iduen i kin japenki, ma meamen kin kalelapok re i.
3My defence with them that do examine me is this.
4A jota muei ow kit er, en mana o nim?
4Have not we power to eat and to drink?
5A jota muei on kit er, en paudeki li amen, me pan ian kit jailok jili, duen me wanporon tei kan, o ri en Kaun o, o Kepaj kin wiada?
5Have we not power to carry about a woman, a sister, as well as the rest of the apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?
6De nai o Parnapaj eta me a jota muei on liki jan dodok en pa at?
6Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to do this?
7Ij me kin ian mauin ap pwain pein i? Ij me wiada mat en wain eu, me jota kin kan kijan wa? Ij me kin kamana pwin man akan me jota kin kan pil en didi en man oko?
7Who serveth as a soldier at any time, at his own charges? Who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? Who feedeth the flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?
8Mepukat i jota kin inda nin tiak en aramaj akan, pwe kaidin kapun o me pil majanier due?
8Speak I these things according to man? Or doth not the law also say these things?
9Pwe a intinidier nan kapun en Mojej: Koe der pira pena au en kau ol amen, me kin tiaka pajan korn. Iaduen, Kot kin apapwali kau ol akan?
9For it is written in the law of Moses: Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?
10De kaidin pweki kit, me a kotin majaniekier mepukat? Pwe me kin japajap, en kaporoporeki a dodok; o me kin dolun en kaporoporeki, me a pan ian ale kijan wa.
10Or doth he say this indeed for our sakes? For these things are written for our sakes: that he that plougheth, should plough in hope; and he that thrasheth, in hope to receive fruit.
11Pwe ma kit wiai on komail japajap nenin, a kaidin me kajampwal kot, me komail pan apwali kit ni pali uduk.
11If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great matter if we reap your carnal things?
12A ma a muei on me tei kan, ale jan omail dipijou kan, nan kit me jo mau on jan irail? Ari jo, kit jota kol on kit tiak wet, a je men mia ni at apwal akan, pwe jen de karompwa ronamau en Krijtuj.
12If others be partakers of this power over you, why not we rather? Nevertheless, we have not used this power: but we bear all things, lest we should give any hindrance to the gospel of Christ.
13Komail jota aja, me irail, me jopijokki jaraui, pil manamana jan nan im en kaudok, o me irail, me kin papan pei jaraui, pil aleki pwaij ar jan pei jaraui?
13Know you not, that they who work in the holy place, eat the things that are of the holy place; and they that serve the altar, partake with the altar?
14Iduen Kaun o kotin majani, me irail, me padaki ronamau, pil pan manaki ronamau.
14So also the Lord ordained that they who preach the gospel, should live by the gospel.
15A nai jota kin kol on ia eu ren mepukat, o i jota intin wei mepukat, pwe komail en kapwai on ia mepukat, pwe a mau on ia en mela, mon amen pan kawela mar ai.
15But I have used none of these things. Neither have I written these things, that they should be so done unto me: for it is good for me to die, rather than that any man should make my glory void.
16Pwe ma i padaki ronamau, jota me i en juaiki, pwe i en udan wiada; pwe jued on ia, ma i jota padaki ronamau.
16For if I preach the gospel, it is no glory to me, for a necessity lieth upon me: for woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel.
17Pwe ma i peren kida dodok wet, i pan ale katin, a ma i kan wiada, nan kujoned mia, i en wiada.
17For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation is committed to me:
18Ari, ia katin pai ni ai padaki ronamau ap jota pwaipwai, pwe i ender akapwaipwaiki jan ronamau meakot.
18What is my reward then? That preaching the gospel, I may deliver the gospel without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
19Pwe nai me udan maiodar jan amen amen, ari jo, i wia kin ia ladun amen amen, pwe i en kamaurela me toto duen i kak on.
19For whereas I was free as to all, I made myself the servant of all, that I might gain the more.
20I wia kin ia Juj amen on Juj akan, pwen kamaurela Juj akan; o on irail, me mi pan kapun, dueta pan kapun amen, pwen kamaur ir ala, me mi pan kapun; ari jo, nai jolar mi pan kapun.
20And I became to the Jews, a Jew, that I might gain the Jews:
21On irail me jota mi pan kapun, i wia kin ia me jota mi pan kapun amen; ari jo, kaidin nai me likin kapun mon Kot, pwe I kin mi pan kapun en Krijtuj, pwen kamaurela me jota mi pan kapun.
21To them that are under the law, as if I were under the law, (whereas myself was not under the law,) that I might gain them that were under the law. To them that were without the law, as if I were without the law, (whereas I was not without the law of God, but was in the law of Christ,) that I might gain them that were without the law.
22On me luet akan, i wia kin ia me luet amen, pwen kamaurela me luet akan. Nai wiala jon karoj on amen amen, pwen kamaurela akai waja karoj.
22To the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak. I became all things to all men, that I might save all.
23I me i kin wiawia pweki ronamau, pwe i en ian i pwai jaijki.
23And I do all things for the gospel’s sake: that I may be made partaker thereof.
24Komail jota aja, duen men weir en tan, irail karoj kin tan, a amen ta, me pan ale pai? Komail ari en tan idipok, pwe komail en ale.
24Know you not that they that run in the race, all run indeed, but one receiveth the prize? So run that you may obtain.
25A amen amen me aktan idipok, kin ijejol pokon. Irail kin wia me, pwen ale mar kamon a kitail, pwen ale me jo kamon.
25And every one that striveth for the mastery, refraineth himself from all things: and they indeed that they may receive a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible one.
26Arai ari aktan jopuiok; nai kin pepei, a kaidin dueta me woki nan wawa;
26I therefore so run, not as at an uncertainty: I so fight, not as one beating the air:
27Pwe i kin jok pon war ai, pwen katenedi, pwe i de padaki on akai, ap pein lokidokila.
27But I chastise my body, and bring it into subjection: lest perhaps, when I have preached to others, I myself should become a castaway.
