Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness, but indeed you do bear with me.
1I mauki, komail en mueid on ia kijin pweipwei, iei ta komail pan mueid on ia.
2For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy. For I promised you in marriage to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ.
2Pwe nai me per kin komail dueta Kot, pwe nai me kileledier komail on ol amen, pwe i en kajale komail on Krijtuj duen jeripein makelekel amen.
3But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness, so your minds might be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
3A i majak jerpent widinok, me kotaue Ewa, ma a jota pan pil kawela omail lamelam jan ni opampap en Krijtuj.
4For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we didn’t preach, or if you receive a different spirit which you didn’t receive, or a different “good news” which you didn’t accept, you put up with that well enough.
4Pwe ma amen pan pwarado, me kin padaki duen amen Iejuj, me je jota padaki, de ma komail pan ale eu nen, me komail jota aleer, de eu ronamau, me komail jota wuki on, kaidin komail pan peren kida?
5For I reckon that I am not at all behind the very best apostles.
5Pwe i lamelame, me nai kaidin tikitik jan wanporon lapalap akan.
6But though I am unskilled in speech, yet I am not unskilled in knowledge. No, in every way we have been revealed to you in all things.
6A ma i jota koiok on lokaia a kaidin ni ai dedeki, pwe kit janjal on komail ni jon o waja karoj.
7Or did I commit a sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached to you God’s Good News free of charge?
7De nai me wiadar dip eu ni ai akmalkila pein nai? Pwe komail en indandala ki ai padaki on komail ronamau en Kot jo pwaipwai.
8I robbed other assemblies, taking wages from them that I might serve you.
8I atia jan momotijou tei kan ni ai aleer pwain en dodok, pwe I en kak dodok on komail.
9When I was present with you and was in need, I wasn’t a burden on anyone, for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of my need. In everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and I will continue to do so.
9O ni ai mimi re omail o lao jamamala, kaidin amen, me i uki pa meakot, pwe ni ai jolar ai meakot, ri atail akan me kodo jan Majetonien me kija don ia; nai ari jota katoutoui komail ni meakot, o i pil pan due!
10As the truth of Christ is in me, no one will stop me from this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
10A duen melel en Krijtuj mimi lol i, iduen i jota pan mueid on amen, en kawela kapin wet nan jap en Akaia kan.
11Why? Because I don’t love you? God knows.
11Pwekida? Pweki ai jo pok on komail? Kot me kotin manier.
12But what I do, that I will continue to do, that I may cut off opportunity from those who desire an opportunity, that in which they boast, they may be recognized just like us.
12A me i kin wia, i me i pan wiada, pwen kawela karep en akai me inon ion karep en ar juaiki dene irail dueta kit, jota lipilipil ij i.
13For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as Christ’s apostles.
13Pwe wanporon likam pukat o toun dodok likam akan irail, kin kawukilan wanporon akan en Krijtuj pein irail.
14And no wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of light.
14A kaidin kapuriamui eu, pwe iduen Jatan kin kawukila pein i, wuki on tounlan en marain amen.
15It is no great thing therefore if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.
15I me kaidin kapuriamui eu, ma na papa kan pil pan wukilan papa en pun kan; a imwilar pan duen ar wiawia kan.
16I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little.
16I puron indada, jota amen en akpweipwei kin ia, a ma iei, komail ap maki on ia ai pweipwei, pwe i en juai kin ia ekij.
17That which I speak, I don’t speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting.
17A me i inda, kaidin Kaun o me i pwili jan, pwe a tapi jan ni tiak en pweipwei, pwe i juaiki pein nai;
18Seeing that many boast after the flesh, I will also boast.
18Pwe me toto kin juaiki ni pali uduk, i pil pan juaiki pein nai.
19For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise.
19Pwe komail kin mauki me lolepon kan, pweki komail me lolekon.
20For you bear with a man if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, or if he strikes you on the face.
20Pwe komail kin mueid on amen, en wia kin komail ladu kan, de ma amen kaloke komail, de ma amen kuli komail edi, de ma amen aklapalap, de ma amen pikir komail.
21To my shame, I speak as though we had been weak. Yet in whatever way anyone is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also.
21Mepukat i indan komail, pwen kanamenok ki komail, dene kit luetalar. A ma meamen aima, nai pil aima, i kin lokaia nin tiak en pweipwei.
22Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the offspring of Abraham? So am I.
22Irail men Ipru, pil nai; irail men Ijrael, pil nai; irail kadaudok en Apraam, pil nai;
23Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself.) I am more so: in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, and in deaths often.
23Irail me papan Krijtuj, i kin lokaia dueta me iak amen, nai me lapa jan; ai dodok laud jan, i kalokolok laud jan; i jalidier toto jan, i koren ion mela pan pak toto.
24Five times I received forty stripes minus one from the Jews.
24Pan me limpak Juj oko ki on ia wok paeijok, eu katoror jan,
25Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I suffered shipwreck. I have been a night and a day in the deep.
25A pan me jilepak re woki kin ia jokon; pan mepak me i pakajuk; pan me jilepak takepa i jop olar; pon o ran, me i pepe jili nan madau.
26I have been in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my countrymen, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils among false brothers;
26Ai jailok me toto; i diar ai apwal nan pilap akan; i diar ai apwal ren lolap akan; i diar ai apwal ren ai kainok; i diar ai apwal nan jap tan; i diar ai apwal nan madau; i diar ai apwal ren jaulan likam akan;
27in labor and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, and in cold and nakedness.
27Ni dodok apwal, ni jonjonemaj, ni men manadar o men nim piladar, ni ijejol pan pak toto, ni pou o jo kidi pa;
28Besides those things that are outside, there is that which presses on me daily: anxiety for all the assemblies.
28O me pil kin lel on ia ni ran karoj, o ai apapwali momodijou akan karoj.
29Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I don’t burn with indignation?
29Ij me luet, a nai jota pan luet? Ij me kin kamakar, a nai jo?
30If I must boast, I will boast of the things that concern my weakness.
30Ma i en juaiki, i pan juaiki ai luet.
31The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, he who is blessed forever more, knows that I don’t lie.
31Kot o Jam en Kaun Iejuj, me iajanai kokolata, kin mani, me i jota kin likam.
32In Damascus the governor under King Aretas guarded the Damascenes’ city, desiring to arrest me.
32Nan Damajkuj nain nanmarki Aretaj kopina amen jinjila kanim en men Damajkuj ni a inon ion jaik ia di.
33I was let down in a basket through a window by the wall, and escaped his hands.
33I ap apikidi kopou eu jan ni wanim tuk en kel o, ap piti jan ni pa a kan.
