Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1But I determined this for myself, that I would not come to you again in sorrow.
1IET me pein wai kileledier, i jolar men pwar won komail ni ai injenjued.
2For if I make you grieve, then who will make me glad but he who is made to grieve by me?
2Pwe ma i kainjenjuedi komail, ij me pan kak kainjenemau ia la? Ma kaidin i eta, me kainjenjuedelar re i.
3And I wrote this very thing to you, so that when I came, I wouldn’t have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all that my joy would be shared by all of you.
3Mepukat i intin won komail er, pwe i ender injenjuede kin irail, me i en peren kida, ni ai pan pwara won komail. A i kamelele komail karoj, me ai peren pil pan omail karoj.
4For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you should be made to grieve, but that you might know the love that I have so abundantly for you.
4Pwe ni lokolok o majak en nan monion i me lapalap, me i intin kilan janejan, kaidin pwen kamauki komail, a pwe komail en ajada, duen ai limpok on komail kaualapia.
5But if any has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow not to me, but in part (that I not press too heavily) to you all.
5A ma meamen wiada kainjenjued eu, kaidin nai eta, me a kainjenjuedi, pwe i ender non kapun on, a ele komail karoj.
6This punishment which was inflicted by the many is sufficient for such a one;
6A kalokolok jan ren me toto itar on i.
7so that, on the contrary, you should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his excessive sorrow.
7Mak eta komail en maki on I o kamaitala, pwe a de lodi on injenjued laud.
8Therefore I beg you to confirm your love toward him.
8I ari panaui komail, komail en kajale on i omail limpok.
9For to this end I also wrote, that I might know the proof of you, whether you are obedient in all things.
9I karepen ai intin won komail, pwe i en aja, ma komail me pun o peiki on ni meakaroj.
10Now I also forgive whomever you forgive anything. For if indeed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Christ,
10A ma komail pan makeki ow meamen meakot, nai pil pan maki on i. A ma i makeki on amen meakot, i makekier pweki komail wilianti Krijtuj.
11that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes.
11Pwe Jatan ender kotaue kitail, pwe kitail ajaer duen a lamelam.
12Now when I came to Troas for the Good News of Christ, and when a door was opened to me in the Lord,
12A ni ai pwaralawer Troaj, pwen padaki ronamau en Krijtuj, o wanim eu me ritida mo i on Kaun O,
13I had no relief for my spirit, because I didn’t find Titus my brother, but taking my leave of them, I went out into Macedonia.
13I jota injenemaula, ni nen i, pweki ai jota diar ri ai Tituj. I ap kamurimur on irail daulul won Majetonien.
14Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and reveals through us the sweet aroma of his knowledge in every place.
14A danke on Kot, me kotin kaloe kitail di pan Krijtuj, ap kajanjaleki kitail pomau en a erpit waja karoj.
15For we are a sweet aroma of Christ to God in those who are being saved and in those who perish:
15Pwe kit me pomau en Krijtuj on Kot ren me pan dorela o ren me pan lokidokila kan.
16to the one a stench from death to death, to the other a sweet aroma from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things?
16On iet akan po en mela on kamela, a on me tei kan po en maur on kamaurela. A ij me kon on mepukat?
17For we are not as so many, peddling the word of God. But as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, we speak in Christ.
17Pwe kit jo dueta me toto, me kin liliajojaki majan en Kot; a at padak me melel, o a pwili jan Kot, o kin wiaui mon Kot pan Krijtuj.
