Men Korint II 12
Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
Berean Standard Bible
1ARI, ai juaiki jota katepa on ia. Ari jo, i pan kapareda kaudial akai o kadiarok kai ren Kaun o.
1I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to gain, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord.
2I aja duen aramaj amen ren Krijtuj, mon jaunpar eijok paieu; i jaja, ma a mi nan war a, de ma a mi likin war a, i pil jaja, Kot me kotin mani, i aramaj o, me peukadala lel nanlan kajilu.
2I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of it I do not know, but God knows.
3O i aja, iei aramaj o, ma a mi nan war a de likin war a, i jaja, Kot me kotin mani.
3And I know that this man—whether in the body or out of it I do not know, but God knows—
4I me peukadalan paradij, waja a ronadar kajoi kai, me jota muei on aramaj amen en inda.
4was caught up to Paradise. The things he heard were too sacred for words, things that man is not permitted to tell.
5I me i pan juaiki; a pein nai jota pan juaiki meakot, ai luet eta.
5I will boast about such a man, but I will not boast about myself, except in my weaknesses.
6A ma i men juaiki pein nai, I jota pan pweipwei, pwe i pan lokaia melel. Ari jo, i jota pan wia, pwe amen ender wia kin ia me lapa jan duen a kin kilan ia o duen a kin ron ia.
6Even if I wanted to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I refrain, so no one will credit me with more than he sees in me or hears from me,
7A pwe i ende aklapalapaki kaudial kapuriamui kai, tuka teketek pot mi nan uduk ai, iei nain Jatan, me kin dokodoko ia, pwe i ende aklapalap.
7or because of these surpassingly great revelations. So to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me.
8Pan jile pak i nidinid on Kaun o, en kotiki jan ia me.
8Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me.
9I ari majani on ia: Ai mak itar on uk, pwe manaman ai kin janjal ren me luet akan. Nan i me i pan juaiki ai luet akan, pwe manaman en Krijtuj en kotikot re i.
9But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me.
10I me i perenki ai luet akan, o jo konekon, o anjau apwal, o kamekam, o patau pweki Krijtuj, pwe ma i luet, nai me kelail.
10That is why, for the sake of Christ, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
11Nai wialar pweipwei men, I me komail kare on ia, mak eta, komail en kapina kin ia, pwe i jota tikitik jan wanporon lapalap akan; ari jo, jota meakot nai.
11I have become a fool, but you drove me to it. In fact, you should have commended me, since I am in no way inferior to those “super-apostles,” even though I am nothing.
12Pwe manidi en wanporon wiauier nan pun omail ni kanonama melel o ni kilel akan, o ni men kapuriamui kan, o ni manaman akan.
12The true marks of an apostle—signs, wonders, and miracles—were performed among you with great perseverance.
13Pwe nin da, me komail tikitikki jan momodijou tei kan, ele iet eta: I jota katoutoui kin komail meakot? Komail ari makeki on ia japun wet.
13In what way were you inferior to the other churches, except that I was not a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong!
14Kilan, i onoper pwar won komail kajilepak, o i jota pan kaponede komail, pwe i jota kin rapaki me noumail, a komail. Pwe kaidin jeri kan en naka penan me wia ir ada, a me wia ir da on jeri kan.
14See, I am ready to come to you a third time, and I will not be a burden, because I am not seeking your possessions, but you. For children should not have to save up for their parents, but parents for their children.
15A i mauki melel kiki wei meakaroj, pil pein nai on nen omail, i jota injenoki, ma omail pok on ia tikitik jan ai limpok lapalap on komail.
15And for the sake of your souls, I will most gladly spend my money and myself. If I love you more, will you love me less?
16Ari i eta, i jota kaponedeer komail; a pweki ai lolekon, i kaloedier komail.
16Be that as it may, I was not a burden to you; but crafty as I am, I caught you by trickery.
17De iaduen, i adia jan amen komail ekij ren me i kadar won komail er?
17Did I exploit you by anyone I sent you?
18I poeki ren Tituj ap kadar won komail pil ri atail ian i. Ari da, Tituj pitia jan komail meakot? Kit jo aluki nen ota de ni lip ota?
18I urged Titus to visit you, and I sent our brother with him. Did Titus exploit you in any way? Did we not walk in the same Spirit and follow in the same footsteps?
19Anjau warai me komail kiki on me je pan pur on, kapunala pein kit on komail. Kit kin lokaia ki Krijtuj mon Kot. Kompok kan, mepukat karoj kin wiaui, pwen kamauiada komail.
19Have you been thinking all along that we were making a defense to you? We speak before God in Christ, and all of this, beloved, is to build you up.
20Pwe i majak ni ai pan pwar won komail, me i jota pan diar komail, duen me i mauki, o komail pil jota pan diar ia, duen me komail mauki. Ele kapei lokaia, o peirin, o makar, o akamai, o kawaikoto, o lidou monin, o aklapalap, o moromoron mi re omail.
20For I am afraid that when I come, I may not find you as I wish, and you may not find me as you wish. I fear that there may be quarreling, jealousy, rage, rivalry, slander, gossip, arrogance, and disorder.
21Pwe ni ai pan pure won komail, ele Kot pan kotin kanamenok kin ia komail, o i pan injenjuedeki me toto, me wiadar dip maj o, ap jota kalukila ar jamin, o nenek, o dodok jued, me re wiadar.
21I am afraid that when I come again, my God will humble me before you, and I will be grieved over many who have sinned earlier and have not repented of their acts of impurity, sexual immorality, and debauchery.
