Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1The first book I wrote, Theophilus, concerned all that Jesus began both to do and to teach,
1MAIN Teopiluj, i wiadar tapin kajoi duen meakan, me Iejuj kotin tapiadar, duen a wiawia o kaukawewe karoj,
2until the day in which he was received up, after he had given commandment through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen.
2Lao lel ran en a peukedala mon a kotin kakalik on wanporon akan, me a kotin piladar ren Nen jaraui,
3To these he also showed himself alive after he suffered, by many proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days and speaking about God’s Kingdom.
3Me a pil kotin kajanjale on pein i ieiaj ki kilel melel toto murin a kalokolok o a pwara don irail ran paeijok o kapakaparokeki duen tiak en wein Kot.
4Being assembled together with them, he commanded them, “Don’t depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which you heard from me.
4A ni a kotikot re ’rail, a kotin kakalikion irail, ren der kowei jan Ierujalem, a ren auiaui, inau en Jam lao pwaidar, me komail rona jan ia er.
5For John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”
5Pwe Ioanej wia paptaij ki pil, a komail pan paptaij kila Nen jaraui ni eu ran me koren.
6Therefore, when they had come together, they asked him, “Lord, are you now restoring the kingdom to Israel?”
6Irail lao pokon penaer, rap kalelapok re a potoan on: Main, anjau wet re pan kotin kapure don Ijrael wei o?
7He said to them, “It isn’t for you to know times or seasons which the Father has set within his own authority.
7A kotin majani on irail: Menda re omail, en aja anjau de auer, me Jam okila nan pein a manaman?
8But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth.”
8A komail pan ale manaman en Nen jaraui, me pan di po omail; komail ap pan ai jaunkadede kan nan Ierujalem, o ludaa pon o Jamaria, o lel won irepan jappa.
9When he had said these things, as they were looking, he was taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight.
9A lao majanier mepukat, ap peukedalar ni ar kankakil, pali en dapok pali idandalar i jan mon maj arail.
10While they were looking steadfastly into the sky as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white clothing,
10Ni ar kilekilan nanlan, ni anjaun a kotidala, kilan, ol riemen mi nan likau pwetepwet, kotikot re ’rail.
11who also said, “You men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who was received up from you into the sky, will come back in the same way as you saw him going into the sky.”
11Me pil majani: ol en Kalilaa komail, da me komail jarakidan nanlan? lel Iejuj, me peukedala nanlan jan komail, a pan kotin puredo, duen komail udialer a kotidalar.
12Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey away.
12Irail ap purelan lerujalem jan dol o, me ad a Oliwe, me koren ion lerujalem; a doo jan al en japat pot.
13When they had come in, they went up into the upper room where they were staying, that is Peter, John, James, Andrew, Philip, Thomas, Bartholomew, Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.
13Irail lao kotilon on, ap kotidan nan pera poa, waja re kin kotikoteta, irail karoj: Petruj, o loanej, o Iakopuj, o anreaj, o Pilipuj, o Tomaj, o Partolomauj, o Matauj, o Iakopuj nain Alpiiuj, o Jimon Jelotej, o Iudaj ri en Iakopuj.
14All these with one accord continued steadfastly in prayer and supplication, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
14Mepukat karoj wiaki eu podidi on kapakap, li akai pil ian irail, o pil Maria in en Iejuj o ri a ol akan.
15In these days, Peter stood up in the middle of the disciples (and the number of names was about one hundred twenty), and said,
15Ni ran oko Petruj ap uda nan pun en jaulan kan majani (irail me impan epukiriek)
16“Brothers, it was necessary that this Scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who was guide to those who took Jesus.
16Ri ai kan, kijin likau en punala, me Nen jaraui kalokaia ki Dawid maj o iran Iudaj, me karedo, me jaikidi Iejuj oko.
17For he was counted with us, and received his portion in this ministry.
17Pwe a pil wadawad on kitail, er o aleer pwaij a dodok wet.
18Now this man obtained a field with the reward for his wickedness; and falling headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines gushed out.
18Nan ol men et pwaine kidar pwain en a japun jap eu, a ni a dikaudi, ap lop pajan o kananan kaped a ap poie jan.
19It became known to everyone who lived in Jerusalem that in their language that field was called ‘Akeldama,’ that is, ‘The field of blood.’
19Toun lerujalem karoj ajada met. Ari, jap o adanekila akeldama ni pein arail lokaia; iet wewe: Jap en nta.
20For it is written in the book of Psalms, ‘Let his habitation be made desolate. Let no one dwell in it;’ and, ‘Let another take his office.’
20Pwe a intinidier nan puk en pjalm: Im a en lijelipinala o jolar, me pan kaujon lole, a amen me pan ale a koa.
21“Of the men therefore who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
21Ari, amen jan ren ol akan, me poden ian kitail er, ni anjau me Kaun Iejuj kotikot re atail,
22beginning from the baptism of John to the day that he was received up from us, of these one must become a witness with us of his resurrection.”
22Jan ni muein paptaij en loanej kokodo lel ni ran o, me a kotin peukada jan kitail er, pan ian kitail wiala jaunkadede en a kotin iajada.
23They put forward two: Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also called Justus, and Matthias.
23Irail ari kileledi riamen: Iojep iei Parjapaj, me pil ad a Iojtoj o Matiaj.
24They prayed and said, “You, Lord, who know the hearts of all men, show which one of these two you have chosen
24Irail ap kapakap majani: Main, ir me kotin mani monion en amen amen, re kotin kajanjaleda, ij me re kotin pilada ren me riamen et,
25to take part in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas fell away, that he might go to his own place.”
25Pwe i en ale pwaij a dodok wet o koa en wanporon, me Iudaj pupe jan, pwen kolan deu a.
26They drew lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias; and he was counted with the eleven apostles.
26Irail ap kadoropwada. A doropwa ko on Matiaj; i ari ian wadawad on wanporon ekamen oko.
