Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1When I came to you, brothers, I didn’t come with excellence of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.
1RI ai kan, ni ai pwara won komail er, kaidin ni kadek lokaia de lolekon en aramaj, me I padaki on komail er kadede en Kot.
2For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
2Pwe i jota wia kin ia, en aja meakot nan pun omail, Iejuj Krijtuj eta o a kalopuela.
3I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.
3O nai mimi re omail ni ai luet, o majak, o rerer toto.
4My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
4O ai kajoi o ai padak kaidin ni kadek lokaia en lolekon, a ni kadede en Neno manaman.
5that your faith wouldn’t stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
5Pwe omail pojon de pajoneki lolekon en aramaj akan, a manaman en Kot.
6We speak wisdom, however, among those who are full grown, yet a wisdom not of this world nor of the rulers of this world who are coming to nothing.
6Ari jo, me kit kin padapadaki me lolekon ren me unjok kan, a kaidin lolekon en jappa et, o pil kaidin en jaupeidi kan en jappa et, me pan jarodi,
7But we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds for our glory,
7A kit kin padaki duen erpit en Kot me rir, iei me jo janjal, me Kot kotin kileledier ni en jappa jaik mia, pwen kalinanada kitail,
8which none of the rulers of this world has known. For had they known it, they wouldn’t have crucified the Lord of glory.
8Me jota jaupeidi en jappa men ajadar, pwe ma re ajaer i, re jota pan kalopuela Kaun en linan.
9But as it is written, “Things which an eye didn’t see, and an ear didn’t hear, which didn’t enter into the heart of man, these God has prepared for those who love him.”
9A duen a intinidier: Me jota maj udialer, o me jota jalon eu ronadar, o me jota ko on nan monion en aramaj amen, iei me Kot kotin kaonop on, me pok on i.
10But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
10A Kot kotin kadiarok on kitail ki Nen e, pwe Nen kin kotin rapaki meakaroj, pil duen kupur en Kot.
11For who among men knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so, no one knows the things of God except God’s Spirit.
11Pwe ij aramaj, me kin aja duen lol en aramaj akan, pwe nen en aramaj eta me mi re a? Iduen Kot, jota me aja meakan me udan Kot, pwe Nen en Kot eta.
12But we received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might know the things that were freely given to us by God.
12A kaidin nen en jappa, me kit aleer, a Nen en Kot, pwe kit en ajada meakan, me Kot kotiki on kitail er.
13We also speak these things, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual things.
13I me kit pil kin padaki wei, kaidin ni lokaia o manin pan lolekon en aramaj, a ni majan akan, me Nen kotin kaweweda, kareda dipijou wenin akan.
14Now the natural man doesn’t receive the things of God’s Spirit, for they are foolishness to him; and he can’t know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
14A aramaj ip pwel jota kin ale meakot ren Nen en Kot, pwe me mal kot on i, pwe a jota kak on, pwe mepukat kin kajauiada ren Nen.
15But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is to be judged by no one.
15A me wenin kin kajauiada meakaroj, ap jota amen me pan kak kajauiada i.
16“For who has known the mind of the Lord that he should instruct him?” But we have Christ’s mind.
16Pwe ij me aja duen kupur en Kaun o, de ij me pan kak padaki on i meakot? A Nen en Krijtuj kotikot lol atail.
