Petruj II 2
Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
World English Bible
1Aren men ljrael jaukop likam kai pil mia, duen jaunpadak likam me pan mi re omail, me pan kawailon. do pwin jued kai, o re kin kamamki Kaun o, me dore ir ala, a i me re pan kare on pein irail kaopar madan.
1But false prophets also arose among the people, as false teachers will also be among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master who bought them, bringing on themselves swift destruction.
2O me toto pan idauen ar padak japun, i me lamalam melel me pan kaankaururla.
2Many will follow their immoral ways, and as a result, the way of the truth will be maligned.
3O pweki ar nonorok ni lokaia widin re pan paie kin komail; ari, kadeik par duen men maj jota pan pwand, o ar pakamekam jota kin moleilei.
3In covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words: whose sentence now from of old doesn’t linger, and their destruction will not slumber.
4Pwe, ma Kot jota kotin kupura tounlan ko, me wiadar dip, a a kotin kaje ir di lan nan pweleko, ap jalie kidi jal mata en rotorot, nekineki on ran en kadeik.
4For if God didn’t spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus, and committed them to pits of darkness to be reserved for judgment;
5O ma a jota kupura men kaua kan, a kamaureda Noa, jaunpadak en lamalam pun, ianaki pil ijimen, ni a kotikl on toun jappa jued nolik lapalap.
5and didn’t spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah with seven others, a preacher of righteousness, when he brought a flood on the world of the ungodly,
6O a kotin wia kila paj kanim Jodom o Komora, o wukidedi, o kadeik ira da en ola, o wia kin ira kilel eu on me jan Kot akan, me pan pwarado mur.
6and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, having made them an example to those who would live in an ungodly way,
7O a kotin kapitala Lot pun amen, me aramaj jued wiai on jon en me jued karoj ni ar tiak jued.
7and delivered righteous Lot, who was very distressed by the lustful life of the wicked
8Pwe i ol pun o kaukaujon nan pun arail, kilekilan o roneron ar wiawia, kupur a pun ap lokelokki ar wiawia japun kaukaule.
8(for that righteous man dwelling among them was tormented in his righteous soul from day to day with seeing and hearing lawless deeds),
9A Kaun o kotin kak on kamaiola jan ni jonapan lelapok kan o nekinekid on ran en kadeik me japun kan, pwe ren kalokolok.
9then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment,
10A irail eta, me weweid ni inon jamin en pali uduk, o mamaleki monjap akan, o laumaum, o katiwo, o jomajak, o lalaue me linan akan.
10but chiefly those who walk after the flesh in the lust of defilement and despise authority. Daring, self-willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries,
11A tounlan kan, me lapalap o kelail jan irail, jota kin lalaue o kadeik irail da mon Kaun o.
11whereas angels, though greater in might and power, don’t bring a slanderous judgment against them before the Lord.
12A mepukat rajon man akan, me jota ar lamelam, me udan kileledier on jalidi o kamela, pwe re lalaue, me re jaja, o re pan mekila ar wiawia jued.
12But these, as unreasoning creatures, born natural animals to be taken and destroyed, speaking evil in matters about which they are ignorant, will in their destroying surely be destroyed,
13Re pan ale katin en ar japun. Re kin kajampwaleki kaped en mana ni ran o. Irail men kajamin, o kanamenok, o kin ponmajuki omail mairon, o jokraui omail kapwa.
13receiving the wages of unrighteousness; people who count it pleasure to revel in the daytime, spots and defects, reveling in their deceit while they feast with you;
14O por en majarail me dir en kamal, o re jota kak dukedi jan wia dip, kotakotaue ir, me monion ar jo ten, o monion arail nonorok, iei jeri en rialar akan.
14having eyes full of adultery, and who can’t cease from sin, enticing unsettled souls, having a heart trained in greed, accursed children!
15Me kajela al inen, ap jalonala, idedauen al en Pileam, nain Peor, me pok on pwain en me japun.
15Forsaking the right way, they went astray, having followed the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of wrongdoing;
16A a pokoki dip a, man aj loton lokelokaia ki nil en aramaj, kapueoki jan jaukop o ni a wiawia japun.
16but he was rebuked for his own disobedience. A speechless donkey spoke with a man’s voice and stopped the madness of the prophet.
17Irail me rajon utun pil matada, o dapok me melimel kin iririp jili; nan rotorot lapalap me nekinekid on irail.
17These are wells without water, clouds driven by a storm, for whom the blackness of darkness has been reserved forever.
18Pwe re kin kida padak aklapalap, me jota kadepa, o ni ar wiawia jamin, re kin kainon ion inon jued en uduk, irail me apton muei jan me japunki padak likam.
18For, uttering great swelling words of emptiness, they entice in the lusts of the flesh, by licentiousness, those who are indeed escaping from those who live in error;
19Re inauki on irail, ren jaledokala, a pein irail ladu en kajuedpar. Pwe melel, me amen lodi oner, i me a kin liduie kila.
19promising them liberty, while they themselves are bondservants of corruption; for a man is brought into bondage by whoever overcomes him.
20Pwe ma re pitila jan nan pwel en jappa, ki ar ajaer Kaun o Jaunkamaur Iejuj Krijtuj, rap pur on lijelepin kila o lodi on I nan ar wiawia en mur me jued jan men maj.
20For if, after they have escaped the defilement of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in it and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first.
21Mak eta, ma re jota aja duen al en pun, jan ar aja, ap wuki wei jan kujoned jaraui, me re aleer.
21For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than after knowing it, to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.
22Pwe, karajeraj o pwaida re’rail, me inda: Kiti men kin pur on kan a muj, o pwik, me duduer, pur on uledok nan pwel.
22But it has happened to them according to the true proverb, “The dog turns to his own vomit again,” and “the sow that has washed to wallowing in the mire.”
