Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
Berean Standard Bible
1A AKAI me kodido jan Iudaa, ap padaki on jaulan kan: Ma komail jota jirkomjaij duen tiak en Mojej, komail jota pan kak maurela.
1Then some men came down from Judea and were teaching the brothers, “Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.”
2A irail lao liak toror pajan o akakamai on Pauluj o Parnapaj, re ap inauki pena, me Pauluj o Parnapaj, o pil akai irail en kotidalan Ierujalem ren wanporon o jaunkoa kan pweki mepukat.
2And after engaging these men in sharp debate, Paul and Barnabas were appointed, along with some other believers, to go up to Jerusalem to see the apostles and elders about this question.
3Momodijou ap likid ir wei lao ekij waja. Irail ap weweid nan Ponijien o Jamaria o kajokajoiada duen en men liki ar wukila. Irail ari kaperenda melel jaulan kan karoj.
3Sent on their way by the church, they passed through Phoenicia and Samaria, recounting the conversion of the Gentiles and bringing great joy to all the brothers.
4Irail lao lel Ierujalem, momodijou o wanporon, o jaunkoa kan ap kajamo ir. Irail ap katitiki meakan, me Kot kotin wiaki irail er.
4On their arrival in Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and apostles and elders, to whom they reported all that God had done through them.
5A akai kijan pwin en Parijar, me jaulanalar, me uda indada: Me pun, en jirkomjaij ir ala, o kapi on irail, en wiawia kapun en Mojej.
5But some believers from the party of the Pharisees stood up and declared, “The Gentiles must be circumcised and required to obey the law of Moses.”
6A wanporon o jaunkoa kan pokon pena, pwen kaparok duen met.
6So the apostles and elders met to look into this matter.
7Irail lao kapukapun pena warailar, Petruj ap kotida majani on irail: Ri ai kan, komail aja, me maj o Kot kotin pil ia dar jan nan pun omail, pwe men liki kan en rona jan nan au ai majan en ronamau o pojonla.
7After much discussion, Peter got up and said to them, “Brothers, you know that in the early days God made a choice among you that the Gentiles would hear from my lips the message of the gospel and believe.
8A Kot me kotin ereki monion en aramaj, kotin kadede irail o kotiki on irail Nen jaraui dueta kitail,
8And God, who knows the heart, showed His approval by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as He did to us.
9O a jota kotin wiada irair eu nan pun en kitail o irail ni a kotin kamakel monion arail ki pojon.
9He made no distinction between us and them, for He cleansed their hearts by faith.
10Ari, da me komail kajonejonki Kot, en kidan pon pop en tounpadak kan lopu eu, me jam atail akan o pil kitail jota kak wa.
10Now then, why do you test God by placing on the necks of the disciples a yoke that neither we nor our fathers have been able to bear?
11A kitail kin kamekamelele, me kitail pan kamaureki mak en Kaun Iejuj Krijtuj dueta irail kai.
11On the contrary, we believe it is through the grace of the Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.”
12A pokon o nenenlata o roneron en Parnapaj i Pauluj ara katiti duen manaman oko o kilel kai, me Kot kotin wia kidar lim ara nan pun en men liki kan.
12The whole assembly fell silent as they listened to Barnabas and Paul describing the signs and wonders God had done among the Gentiles through them.
13Irail lao nenenlar, Iakopuj ap kaparok majanida: Ri ai kan komail ron ia!
13When they had finished speaking, James declared, “Brothers, listen to me!
14Jimon me kajoiada duen en Kot a kotin pwara don men liki kan ni tapi o pwen pili jan irail kainok eu on mar a.
14Simon has told us how God first visited the Gentiles to take from them a people to be His own.
15Pwe iduen majan en jaukop akan duen a intinidi:
15The words of the prophets agree with this, as it is written:
16Murin mepukat I pan puredo o kawiliakapada im en Dawid, me ronki pajaner, o pur on kauada waja me olar.
16‘After this I will return and rebuild the fallen tent of David. Its ruins I will rebuild, and I will restore it,
17Pwe luan aramaj akan en raparapaki Kaun o, pil men liki kan, me wan ad ai, iei me Kaun o majaniadar, me kin kotin wiawia.
17so that the remnant of men may seek the Lord, and all the Gentiles who are called by My name, says the Lord who does these things
18Mepukat me lolok jan ni tapi o.
18that have been known for ages.’
19Ari iet me i kajauiada, kitail ender katoutoui irail me wuki on Kot jan ren men liki kan.
19It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not cause trouble for the Gentiles who are turning to God.
20A jen intine won irail, ren liki jan kajaut en kot mal akan, o nenek, o man mopelar akan, o nta.
20Instead, we should write and tell them to abstain from food polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from the meat of strangled animals, and from blood.
21Pwe jan maj kokodo jaun kawewe en Mojej kin mi nan kanim karoj, pwe re kin padapadak duen i nan jinakoke kan ni ran en japat akan karoj.
21For Moses has been proclaimed in every city from ancient times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath.”
22Wanporon o jaunkoa kan, o momodijou ap maukidar, en pilada ol akai jan ar pokon o porone ira wei ian Pauluj i Parnapaj, en kotila Antiokien: Iudaj, me pil ad a Parnapaj o Jilaj, ol pukat, me kaun pan jaulan kan.
22Then the apostles and elders, with the whole church, decided to select men from among them to send to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They chose Judas called Barsabbas and Silas, two leaders among the brothers,
23A iet eten, me re intiniedier ap kadar won irail: let kit wanporon o jaunkoa kan o jaulan kan kadar won komail, ri at akan, me ko jan ren men liki kan nan Antiokien, o Jirien, o Jijilia at ranamau.
23and sent them with this letter: The apostles and the elders, your brothers, To the brothers among the Gentiles in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia: Greetings.
24Aki at roner, me akai, me koiei jan re at, kin kaponepone kin nen omail ar padak kan ni ar kajapune komail lar indada: Komail en jirkomjaij o kapwaiada kapun o; a je jota ki on irail kujoned akan.
24It has come to our attention that some went out from us without our authorization and unsettled you, troubling your minds by what they said.
25Kit ap wiaki eu ni at maukidar en piladar ol akai, ap kadar won komail ianaki kompoke pat Parnapaj o Pauluj.
25So we all agreed to choose men to send to you along with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
26Ol oko me tonmeteki maur ara on mar en Kaun Iejuj K rijtui.
26men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
27Kit ari kadar wei Iudaj o Jilaj, me pil pan kajoi on komail mepukat.
27Therefore we are sending Judas and Silas to tell you in person the same things we are writing.
28Pwe Nen jaraui o kit kin kupukupura, me mau, je ender ki on komail eu lopu; mepukat eta me kajampwal:
28It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us not to burden you with anything beyond these essential requirements:
29Komail liki jan uduk, me mairon on kot likam, o nta, o man mopelar, o nenek. Ma komail liki jan mepukat, nan komail kin wiawia me mau. Ran kajelel!
29You must abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality. You will do well to avoid these things. Farewell.
30Irail lao pakadarala, ap kotilan Antiokien, re ap kapokon ir pena, ki on irail kijin likau o.
30So the men were sent off and went down to Antioch, where they assembled the congregation and delivered the letter.
31Irail lao wadoker, ap peren kidar kamait parail.
31When the people read it, they rejoiced at its encouraging message.
32A Iudaj i Jilaj, me pil jaukop oko panaui kin jaulan kan kajoi toto o pil katinai ir ada.
32Judas and Silas, who themselves were prophets, said much to encourage and strengthen the brothers.
33Irail mi waja o lao ran akai, ap pakadarala popol jan ren jaulan kan, pwe ren kola ren me kadar ira ala.
33After spending some time there, they were sent off by the brothers in peace to return to those who had sent them.
35A Pauluj i Parnapaj kotikoteta Antiokien, kawewedar o padapadaki majan en Kaun o. o me toto pil ian.
35But Paul and Barnabas remained at Antioch, along with many others, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord.
36Kadekadeo murin ran akai Pauluj majani on. Parnapaj: Kita pan purela ren jaulan kan, me mi kanim akan, waja kita padakier duen majan en Kaun o, o kalekalelapok due ’rail.
36Some time later Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us go back and visit the brothers in every town where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, to see how they are doing.”
37A Parnapaj men ukada Ioanej, me pil ad a Markuj.
37Barnabas wanted to take John, also called Mark.
38A Pauluj kupura, me a jota mau, ira en ukada i, me muei jan ira nan Pampilien o jolar ian ira kolan dodok.
38But Paul thought it best not to take him, because he had deserted them in Pamphylia and had not accompanied them in the work.
39Ira ari akamai pena lao ira muei pajan. Parnapaj ari ukada Markuj tana won Jipern.
39Their disagreement was so sharp that they parted company. Barnabas took Mark and sailed for Cyprus,
40Pauluj piladar Jilaj ap kotila. A jaulan kan mueidela ira ni mak en Kot.
40but Paul chose Silas and left, commended by the brothers to the grace of the Lord.
41I ari kakan jili nan Jirien o Jilijia katinada momodijou kan.
41And he traveled through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches.
