Men Korint II 3
Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
Berean Standard Bible
1A IADUEN kit pil kaindan deki pein kit? De nai me mau on kijin likau en kapin on komail de jan komail?
1Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or do we need, like some people, letters of recommendation to you or from you?
2At kijin likau komail, me intinidi on nan monion it, me aramaj akan karoj kin aja o wadok.
2You yourselves are our letter, inscribed on our hearts, known and read by everyone.
3Pwe komail janjaleda, me komail kijin likau en Krijtuj, me wiauier re at ni at papa, me kaidin intinidier ki ink, a Nen en Kot ieiaj; pil kaidin pon jlet takai, pwe jlet uduken en monion akan.
3It is clear that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.
4lel atail kaporoporeki Krijtuj mon Kot.
4Such confidence before God is ours through Christ.
5Pwe kaidin udan at koiok, me je kak lamelameki meakot, me tapi jan pein kit, pwe at koiok tapi jan ren Kot,
5Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim that anything comes from us, but our competence comes from God.
6Me pil kotin kaiane kin kit, en papa en inau kap kaidin inau, me intinidier, a inau en nen. Pwe intin kin kamela, a nen kin kotin kamaureda.
6And He has qualified us as ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
7A ma dodok en mela, me intinidier nan pali en takai, me linan, pwe jeri en Ijrael akan jota kak kilan jilan en Mojej, pweki linan en jilan i, a linan wet eu, me pan joredi,
7Now if the ministry of death, which was engraved in letters on stone, came with such glory that the Israelites could not gaze at the face of Moses because of its fleeting glory,
8Daduen, dodok en nen a jota pan linan jikida jan?
8will not the ministry of the Spirit be even more glorious?
9Ari, ma dodok en kadeik o me linan, nan melel kaualap, dodok en pun me lman melel.
9For if the ministry of condemnation was glorious, how much more glorious is the ministry of righteousness!
10Pwe men moa me kalinanadar jota kak paroki on linan wet.
10Indeed, what was once glorious has no glory now in comparison to the glory that surpasses it.
11A ma linan mia ren me pan jorela, iaduen wan linan en me pan mimieta!
11For if what was fading away came with glory, how much greater is the glory of that which endures!
12Ni at kaporoporeki mepukat, kit kin aima melel.
12Therefore, since we have such a hope, we are very bold.
13O kaidin dueta Mojej, me pera kila likau eu jilan i, pwe jeri en Ijrael akan ender kilan imwi en me pan nikila.
13We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to keep the Israelites from gazing at the end of what was fading away.
14A monion arail me kapitakailar. Pwe lao lel ran wet pera o mimieta anjaun ar wadawadok inau marin; ari, pera o me jaroka janer ren Krijtuj.
14But their minds were closed. For to this day the same veil remains at the reading of the old covenant. It has not been lifted, because only in Christ can it be removed.
15A lao lel ran wet ni arail wadawadok Mojej, pera mimieta mon monion arail.
15And even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts.
16A ma re pan wuki on Kaun o, pera o pan jaroka jan.
16But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
17Kaun o iei Nen, a waja me Nen en Kaun kotikot ia, nan i wajan maio.
17Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
18A kitail karoj, me maj atail jo perapa, kin ududial linan en Kaun o, ap wuki on ni mom ota o kakairida ni linan pweki Kaun iei Nen.
18And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into His image with intensifying glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
