Men Korint II 9
Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
Berean Standard Bible
1A DUEN dodok on me jaraui kan, i jolar pan intin won komail.
1Now about the service to the saints, there is no need for me to write to you.
2Pwe i aja, me omail inon ion me mau, me i kin juaiki on men Majetonien, me men Akaia inon ion mepukat jan ni par jamalar, a komail kainon ion me toto.
2For I know your eagerness to help, and I have been boasting to the Macedonians that since last year you in Achaia were prepared to give. And your zeal has stirred most of them to do likewise.
3I ap ilakiawei ri atail akan, pwe at kapin pa omail ender mal la ni mepukat, pwe komail en onop duen me i inda.
3But I am sending the brothers in order that our boasting about you in this matter should not prove empty, but that you will be prepared, just as I said.
4Pwe ma men Majetonien kai pan ian ia, ap konodi komail ni omail jo onop, kit, je jota men inda komail, ap pan natnenok kila ni at liki wet.
4Otherwise, if any Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, we—to say nothing of you—would be ashamed of having been so confident.
5Ari, i ap lamedar, en poeki ren ri atail akan, ren tion mo at kolan komail, pwen kaonopada pai wet, me komail inaukidar maj o, pwen pai melel eu, a iermen norok jued.
5So I thought it necessary to urge the brothers to visit you beforehand and make arrangements for the bountiful gift you had promised. This way, your gift will be prepared generously and not begrudgingly.
6A iet me i inda: Me kin kamorok tikitik, pan dolun tikitik, a me kin kamorok toto, pan dolun me toto.
6Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.
7Amen amen duen a kileledier nan monion i; der kija kol, de akpatik, pwe Kot kotin pok on me kin pein perenki kijakij.
7Each one should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not out of regret or compulsion. For God loves a cheerful giver.
8A Kot me kotin manaman on en kalaudelan komail jon en mak kan karoj, pwe komail en kapwapwa ni jon karoj o anjau karoj, ap kak on jon en wiawia mau karoj,
8And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things, at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.
9Duen a intinidier: A kamoredier, a kijakij a wei on me jamamakan; a pun pan mimieta kokolata.
9As it is written: “He has scattered abroad His gifts to the poor; His righteousness endures forever.”
10A me kin kotiki on jaumat kijin war akan, o prot men mana, a pan katotoela omail war akan, o a pan kotin kawojada omail wan pun kan,
10Now He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your store of seed and will increase the harvest of your righteousness.
11Pwe komail en kapwapwala ni jon karoj, pwen wiawia mau karoj, me kin karedan kit, en danke Kot.
11You will be enriched in every way to be generous on every occasion, so that through us your giving will produce thanksgiving to God.
12Pwe wiawia pan dodok wet kaidin jauaj pan jaraui kan ta, pwe me toto kin danke Kot.
12For this ministry of service is not only supplying the needs of the saints, but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanksgiving to God.
13Arail kapwaiada dodok wet kin kalinanada Kot pweki omail upai on kadede en ronamau en Krijtuj, o omail japan kijakij on irail o on karoj,
13Because of the proof this ministry provides, the saints will glorify God for your obedient confession of the gospel of Christ, and for the generosity of your contribution to them and to all the others.
14O ni arail nidinide kin komail, re kin anane komail pweki mak lapalap en Kot on komail.
14And their prayers for you will express their affection for you, because of the surpassing grace God has given you.
15Daken on Kot pweki a pai lapalap!
15Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!
