Matäuj 3
Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1A ni ran pukat Ioanej jaun paptaij pwarado, padapadahk nan jap en Iudaa,
1And in those days cometh John the Baptist preaching in the desert of Judea.
2Majani: Komail kalula, pwe wein nanlan korendor.
2And saying: Do penance: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
3Pwe iei i, me jaukop Iejaia katitiki, majani: Nil en jaunkair amen nan jap tan: Komail kaonopada al en Kaun o, kainenela al a!
3For this is he that was spoken of by Isaias the prophet, saying: A voice of one crying in the desert, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight his paths.
4A i Ioanej me a likau wun en kamel o a pirapireki kil in man, a jak a manjiek o oni en nan wel.
4And the same John had his garment of camels’ hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins: and his meat was locusts and wild honey.
5Toun lerujalem, o toun Iudaa, o toun jap akan liman Iordan ap koieila re a;
5Then went out to him Jerusalem and all Judea, and all the country about Jordan:
6O irail paptaijela re a nan Iordan, ni ar weokada dip arail akan.
6And were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.
7A lao majanier Parijar o Jadu jar me toto ko don a paptaij, ap majani on irail: Dakot wan oter komail! Ij me padaki on komailer, en piti jan ni kamekam me kokodo?
7And seeing many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them: Ye brood of vipers, who hath shewed you to flee from the wrath to come?
8Ari, komail kapwareda wan kalula mau!
8Bring forth therefore fruit worthy of penance.
9A komail depa lamelame, me komail pan indan pein komail: Nan Apraam jam atail. Pwe i indai on komail, me Kot kotin kak on wiaki on Apraam na jeri kai takai pukat.
9And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for our father. For I tell you that God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
10Jile o mier ni tapin tuka kan; a tuka karoj me jo wa mau, pan paledi o lokidokila nani iai.
10For now the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that doth not yield good fruit, shall be cut down, and cast into the fire.
11Melel, i paptaij kin komail pil on kalula, a me kotido muri, nan me laude jan ia, nai jowar on, en wa japwilim a jut; i me pan paptaij kin komail Nen jaraui o kijiniai.
11I indeed baptize you in the water unto penance, but he that shall come after me, is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear; he shall baptize you in the Holy Ghost and fire.
12Japwilim a tanir mi ni lim a; a pan kotin koko melel japwilim a pera, ap nekid pena japwilim a wan korn nan im en nak, a dip akan a pan kotin karon kila kijiniai joutuk.
12Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his floor and gather his wheat into the barn; but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.
13Iejuj ap kotido jan Kalilaa, koti don Iordan ren Ioanej, pwen paptaijela re a.
13Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan, unto John, to be baptized by him.
14A Ioanej kotin kan, ap potoan on: Mak eta i en paptaijela re ir, a iaduen ir me kotido re i?
14But John stayed him, saying: I ought to be baptized by thee, and comest thou to me?
15A Iejuj kotin japen majani on i: Wiada maj, pwe me kon on kita, kapwuiada pun kan karoj; a ah duki on i.
15And Jesus answering, said to him: Suffer it to be so now. For so it becometh us to fulfill all justice. Then he suffered him.
16Iejuj Iao paptaijelar, ap kotin madanada ja n nan pil o. A kilan, nanlan ap ritidan i, I ari kotin majani Nen en Kot kotidido ni mom en mwuroi men a kaipokedi po a.
16And Jesus being baptized, forthwith came out of the water: and lo, the heavens were opened to him: and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him.
17O kilan, nil eu jan nanlan majani: Iet nai nl kompok, me I kin polaule kida!
17And behold a voice from heaven, saying: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
