Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
Berean Standard Bible
1A JAULUJ pil peren kida a kamela. A ni ran ota anjaun kamekam en momodijou en Ierujalem tapida; karoj ap muei pajan nan jap en Iudaao Jamaria, wanporon akan me jo.
1And Saul was there, giving approval to Stephen’s death. On that day a great persecution broke out against the church in Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria.
2A ol lelapok kai jarepedi Jtepanuj o maieiki i kaualap.
2God-fearing men buried Stephen and mourned deeply over him.
3A Jauluj me kamueit pajan momodijou o kuli on im karoj, wala ol o li karoj, kajedi on irail nan imaten.
3But Saul began to destroy the church. Going from house to house, he dragged off men and women and put them in prison.
4A irail me muei pajaner, kakan jili padapadak duen majan o.
4Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went.
5Pilipuj ap kotilan kanim en Jamaria eu o padaki on irail duen Krijtuj.
5Philip went down to a city in Samaria and proclaimed the Christ to them.
6A aramaj akan wiaki eu peiki on meakan, me Pilipuj padaki on irail. Re roneron i o kilan kilel akan me a wiadar.
6The crowds gave their undivided attention to Philip’s message and to the signs they saw him perform.
7Pwe nen jaut keredi jan ren me toto ni ar weriwer laud. O me kokon madak o na danidan toto me kelailadar.
7With loud shrieks, unclean spirits came out of many who were possessed, and many of the paralyzed and lame were healed.
8O peren me lapalap nan kanim o.
8So there was great joy in that city.
9A ol amen ad a Jimon, me kin wun ani maj o, kotokotaue men Jamaria, me inda duen pein i, me i me lapalap.
9Prior to that time, a man named Simon had practiced sorcery in the city and astounded the people of Samaria. He claimed to be someone great,
10A irail karoj peiki on i, me tikitik o me lapalap akan katitiki: Men et iei manaman en Kot me lapalap.
10and all the people, from the least to the greatest, heeded his words and said, “This man is the divine power called the Great Power.”
11A re kin peiki on i, pweki a kin kotokotaue irail jan maj kokodo.
11They paid close attention to him because he had astounded them for a long time with his sorcery.
12A re lao kamelele Pilipuj, me padaki duen ronamau en wein Kot o duen mar en Iejuj Krijtuj, rap paptaijela, ol o li akan.
12But when they believed Philip as he preached the gospel of the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
13Jimon pil ian pojonlar, I lao paptaijelar, ap waroki on Pilipuj. A lao udial kilel o manaman akan, me wiauier, ap puriamuiki.
13Even Simon himself believed and was baptized. He followed Philip closely and was astounded by the great signs and miracles he observed.
14Wanporon akan me kotikot Ierujalem lao mani, me Jamaria ian duki on majan en Kot, rap poronelan irail Petruj o Ioanej.
14When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them.
15Ira lao kotido, ap kapakapa kin irail, pwe re en tunole Nen jaraui.
15On their arrival, they prayed for them to receive the Holy Spirit.
16Pwe a jaikenta moredi on amen irail. Re paptaijelar eta ni mar en Kaun Iejuj.
16For the Holy Spirit had not yet fallen upon any of them; they had simply been baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.
17Ira ari kotiki on po ’rail lim ar akan, irail ap aleer Nen jaraui.
17Then Peter and John laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
18Jimon lao kilaner, me Nen jaraui kokido en wanporon oko ara pwil po ’rail lim ar akan, ap men ki on ira kijin moni.
18When Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money.
19Indada: Koma pil kotiki don ia manaman wet, pwe ma I pan pwiI pon amen pa i kat, i en ale Nen jaraui.
19“Give me this power as well,” he said, “so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.”
20A Petruj majani on i: Noum moni en ian uk lokidokila! pweki om kiki on, me mana en Kot kokido moni.
20But Peter replied, “May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money!
21Nan jota pwaij om de om tunol ni dodok wet, pwe monion om jota inen mon Kot.
21You have no part or share in our ministry, because your heart is not right before God.
22Ari, kalukila om jued wet, poeki ren Kaun o, ma a jota pan kotin makeki lamelam jued nan monion om.
22Repent, therefore, of your wickedness, and pray to the Lord. Perhaps He will forgive you for the intent of your heart.
23Pwe i kilaner, me koe me dir en edi katik o teniten ni me japun.
23For I see that you are poisoned by bitterness and captive to iniquity.”
24Jimon ap japen indada: Koma kotin kapakapa kin ia ren Kaun o, pwe mepukat, me koma majani on ia, ender pwai don ia.
24Then Simon answered, “Pray to the Lord for me, so that nothing you have said may happen to me.”
25A ira lao katitiki o kotikida majan en Kaun o, ap purelan Ierujalem, o padak jili ronamau nan kijinkanim en Jamaria toto.
25And after Peter and John had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem, preaching the gospel in many of the Samaritan villages.
26A tounlan en Kaun o majani on Pilipuj: Uda kola pali air pon al o, me kodi jan Ierujalem, ko on Kaja me tan!
26Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Get up and go south to the desert road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.”
27I ari uda japalewei. A kilan, ol en Etiopia, jaumaj manaman en Kandaje, li nanmarki en Etiojiia, me kokoaki a dipijou karoj, mo kotido, pwen kaudok nan Ierujalem.
27So he started out, and on his way he met an Ethiopian eunuch, a court official in charge of the entire treasury of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians. He had gone to Jerusalem to worship,
28A ni a purela jap we, a kotikot pon dakepa o dondoropwe jaukop Iejaia.
28and on his return was sitting in his chariot reading Isaiah the prophet.
29Nen o ap kotin majani on Pilipuj: Kai on o ianala dakepa!
29The Spirit said to Philip, “Go over to that chariot and stay by it.”
30Pilipuj ap tana won i, ap ronadar a dondoropwe jaukop Iejaia majani: Komui weweki, me komui doropwe?
30So Philip ran up and heard the man reading Isaiah the prophet. “Do you understand what you are reading?” Philip asked.
31I ari majani: Pala i pan aja, ma jota, me pan kawewe on ia? I ari poeki ren Pilipuj en kereda mondi re a.
31“How can I,” he said, “unless someone guides me?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.
32A iet waja nan kijin likau o me a wadoker: Duen jip amen, me pakara wei, pwen kamela, o duen jippul, me kin nenenlata pan me kote jan wun a, iduen a jota kotin dauaja pajan jilan i.
32The eunuch was reading this passage of Scripture: “He was led like a sheep to the slaughter, and as a lamb before the shearer is silent, so He did not open His mouth.
33A ni a karakarak a jolar pakadeikadar. A ij me pan kak kaweweda duen jau i kan? Pwe a ieiaj wijike janer jappa.
33In His humiliation He was deprived of justice. Who can recount His descendants? For His life was removed from the earth.”
34Jaumaj ap japen Pilipuj majani: I men poeki re omui, ij me jaukop katitiki met? Duen pein i de duen amen?
34“Tell me,” said the eunuch, “who is the prophet talking about, himself or someone else?”
35Pilipuj ap kotiki pajan au a, padaki on i ronamau en lejuj, tapiada nan kijin likau wet.
35Then Philip began with this very Scripture and told him the good news about Jesus.
36A ni ara kokowei, ira lel on pil apot, a jaumaj o majani: Kilan pil o, da me karompa, me I jota paptaij ki?
36As they traveled along the road and came to some water, the eunuch said, “Look, here is water! What is there to prevent me from being baptized?”
38I ap majani dakepa en udi. Ira karoj ap kodi on pil o, Pilipuj o jaumaj o; i ari paptaij i.
38And he gave orders to stop the chariot. Then both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and Philip baptized him.
39Ira lao kodado jan nan pil o, Nen en Kaun o ap pokada jan Pilipuj. Jaumaj o ap jolar kilan i. I ari daulul kokowei popol.
39When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, but went on his way rejoicing.
40Pilipuj ap diarokadar Ajdod; a dadaulular, padak jili ronamau nan kanim karoj lao a lele don Jajarea.
40But Philip appeared at Azotus and traveled through that region, preaching the gospel in all the towns until he came to Caesarea.
