Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know him.
1KILAN jon en limpok lapalap, me Jam kotiki don kitail er, pwe kitail en adane kila jeri en Kot, ari, iei kitail. I me jappa jaja kin kitail, pwe re kin jaja i.
2Beloved, now we are children of God. It is not yet revealed what we will be; but we know that when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him just as he is.
2Kompok kan, kitail ari jeri en Kot, ap jaikenta janjal, da me kitail pan wiala. Ari jo, kitail aja, ni a pwarado, kitail pan duala i, pwe kitail pan kilan i ni udan mom a.
3Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
3O amen amen, me kaporopor due met, a en kamakelekele pein i duen i me makelekel.
4Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.
4Amen amen me kin wia dip, pil kin palian kapun, pwe iei dip palian kapin.
5You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and no sin is in him.
5O komail aja, i me a pwarado, pwen lapwada dip akan. A dip jota kin mi re a.
6Whoever remains in him doesn’t sin. Whoever sins hasn’t seen him and doesn’t know him.
6Meamen, me pot re a, jota kin wia dip; meamen wia dip, jota kilan i o jota dedeki.
7Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
7Jama ko, kalaka, pwe amen de kajapuna komail. Me kin wia pun, nan i me pun amen, due i me pun.
8He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed: that he might destroy the works of the devil.
8Me kin wia dip, i nain tewil, pwe tewil me wia dip jan ni tapi o. I me Japwilim en Kot kotin pwarado, pwen kawela wiawia en tewil.
9Whoever is born of God doesn’t commit sin, because his seed remains in him, and he can’t sin, because he is born of God.
9Meamen me ipwi jan Kot, jota kin wia dip, pwe war a mi re a, o a jo kak wia dip, pwe a ipwi jan ren Kot.
10In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever doesn’t do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who doesn’t love his brother.
10I me jeri en Kot o jeri en tewil janjale kida, me jo wia me pun, i me jo jan ren Kot, o me jo pok on ri a.
11For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another—
11Pwe iet padak, me komail roner jan ni tapi o, kitail en pokepoke pena.
12unlike Cain, who was of the evil one and killed his brother. Why did he kill him? Because his deeds were evil, and his brother’s righteous.
12Kaidin due Kain, me udan me jued amen, ap kamela ri a. Ari, menda a kamela i? Aki a wiawia me jued, a en ri a me pun.
13Don’t be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.
13Ri ai ko, der puriamuiki, ma men jappa kin tata kin komail.
14We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn’t love his brother remains in death.
14Kitail aja, me kitail daulier mela, ap ko on maur, pwe kitail kin pok on ri atail akan. Ari, me jo limpok, pan mimieta nan mela.
15Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him.
15Meamen, me kin tata ki ri a, nan i me kamela men. A komail aja, maur joutuk jota kin mi ren me kamela men.
16By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
16I me kitail diar kida limpok. A kotiki wei maur pweki kitail; kitail ari pwaipwandeki maur atail on ri atail akan.
17But whoever has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, then closes his heart of compassion against him, how does God’s love remain in him?
17Meamen me muei met ap kilan ri a dupokala, ap jota jauaja i, iaduen limpok en Kot pan kak mi re a?
18My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
18Jama ko, kitail der pok pena ni lokaia ta o lo, a ni wiawia o melel pot.
19And by this we know that we are of the truth and persuade our hearts before him,
19I me kitail pan ajaki, me kitail kijan melel, o kainjenemauiela monion atail re a,
20because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
20Pwe ma monion atail kadeikada kitail, nan Kot me lapa jan monion atail o lelapokki meakan karoj.
21Beloved, if our hearts don’t condemn us, we have boldness toward God;
21Kompok kan, ma monion atail jo kadeikada kitail, nan kitail aima on Kot.
22so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
22O meakot kitail poeki re a, kitail pan tunole jan i, pwe kitail nekinekid a kujoned akan, o wiada meakan, me a kin pole kila.
23This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he commanded.
23Ietet a kujoned: Kitail en pojon mar en japwilim a Ol Iejuj Krijtuj, o poke pena, duen a kotiki on kitail kujoned o.
24He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.
24A me kin nekinekid a kujoned akan, pan pot re a, o i I pan kotikot re a; o iet me kitail ujaki, a kotikot re atail: Nen o, me a kupurai don kitail er.
