Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1But Saul, still breathing threats and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest
1A JAULUJ dadaurata a linaranaraki tounpadak en Kaun akan, ap pan kame ir ala, o kola ren jamero lapalap o,
2and asked for letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
2Poeki re a kijin likau on jinakoke en Damajkuj akan, pwe ma a pan diar meamen, me ianala lamalam, ol de li i en jali irail edi o kalualan Ierujalem.
3As he traveled, he got close to Damascus, and suddenly a light from the sky shone around him.
3A ni a japajapal kokola koren ion Damajkuj, marain eu kodido jan nanlan, jereda i.
4He fell on the earth, and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?”
4Ni a pupedi nani pwel, ap ronada nil eu, me majani on i: Jaul, Jaul, da me koe kame kin ia?
5He said, “Who are you, Lord?” The Lord said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.
5A ap inda: Ij komui Main? A kotin majani: Nai Iejuj, me koe kin kame.
6But rise up and enter into the city, then you will be told what you must do.”
6Paurida, kolan nan kanim en, nan a pan loki on uk, me koe en wiada.
7The men who traveled with him stood speechless, hearing the sound, but seeing no one.
7A ol oko, me ian i kokola, japaimokid, pwe re ronadar nil o, ap jota amen me re kilanadar.
8Saul arose from the ground, and when his eyes were opened, he saw no one. They led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus.
8Jauluj paurida jan nan pwel, maj a papad eta, ap jota kilan meamen. A re kolokol pa a, kalualan I Damajkuj.
9He was without sight for three days, and neither ate nor drank.
9I ari jota kilan waja pon jili pon. A jo kan de nim meakot.
10Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias!” He said, “Behold, it’s me, Lord.”
10A tounpadak amen mi Damajkuj, ad a Ananiaj me Kaun o kotin majani on ni kajanjal eu: Ananiaj! I ari potoan on: let nai Main!
11The Lord said to him, “Arise and go to the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judah for one named Saul, a man of Tarsus. For behold, he is praying,
11Kaun o ap kotin majani on i: Paurida kowei on nani al o, me ad a Inen, ap idok nan im en Iudaj amen, me mar a Jauluj enTarjuj. Pwe kilan, a kapakap
12and in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias coming in and laying his hands on him, that he might receive his sight.”
12A kilaner ol amen ni kajanjal eu, me ad a Ananiaj, me ko don i o pwil poa pa a kan, pwe a en kilanki waja.
13But Ananias answered, “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your saints at Jerusalem.
13A Ananiaj potoan on: Main, i ronadar ren aramaj toto duen ol men et, duen a kin kaokaoe japwilim ar jaraui kan, me mi Ierujalem.
14Here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name.”
14O a aleer jan ren jamero lapalap akan manaman, en jaliedi karoj, me kin likwir on mar omui.
15But the Lord said to him, “Go your way, for he is my chosen vessel to bear my name before the nations and kings, and the children of Israel.
15A Kaun o kotin majani on i: U kowei, pwe iei ol o, me I piladar, en wala mar ai ren men liki o nanmarki kan o men Ijrael.
16For I will show him how many things he must suffer for my name’s sake.”
16Pwe I pan kajanjale on i duen won a pan kamekameki mar ai.
17Ananias departed and entered into the house. Laying his hands on him, he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord, who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me that you may receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”
17Ananiaj ari kola, pedelon on nan im o, pwil poa pa a pokon, indada: Ri (ai) Jaul, Kaun o me kotin porone ia do; iei Iejuj, me kotin pwara don komui nani al o ni omui kokodo, pwe komui en kilanada waja o dire kila Nen jaraui.
18Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he received his sight. He arose and was baptized.
18A madan likamata un en mam akai, me pupedi jan ni maj a, i ari kilanadar waja o udar paptaijelar.
19He took food and was strengthened. Saul stayed several days with the disciples who were at Damascus.
19I lao manaer, ap kelailadar, ap mimieta ren tounpadak en Damajkuj akan ran akai.
20Immediately in the synagogues he proclaimed the Christ, that he is the Son of God.
20A madan padapadak nan jinakoke kan duen Iejuj, me i japwilim en Kot.
21All who heard him were amazed, and said, “Isn’t this he who in Jerusalem made havoc of those who called on this name? And he had come here intending to bring them bound before the chief priests!”
21A karoj, me roneron i, puriamui kila indada: Kaidin i, me kin kaokaoe ir, me kin likwir on mar wet nan Ierujalem o kodo waja et, pwen jali ir edi, kalua ren jamero lapalap akan?
22But Saul increased more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus, proving that this is the Christ.
22A Jauluj me manaman kokoda o kapinada Juj oko, me kaujon Damajkuj ni a kawewedar, me i me Krijtuj.
23When many days were fulfilled, the Jews conspired together to kill him,
23Kadekadeo murin ran toto Juj oko kapun pena en kamela i.
24but their plot became known to Saul. They watched the gates both day and night that they might kill him,
24A Jauluj roner, me re majamajan i; irail pil majamajan wanim akan ni ran o ni pon, pwen kamela i.
25but his disciples took him by night and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.
25A tounpadak kan ale i ni pon apiekidi kopou eu jan pon kel o.
26When Saul had come to Jerusalem, he tried to join himself to the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
26A Jauluj lao pwara don Ierujalem a jojon waroki on tounpadak kan, irail karoj majak i, pwe irail jota kamelele, me i tounpadak amen.
27But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles, and declared to them how he had seen the Lord on the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how at Damascus he had preached boldly in the name of Jesus.
27A Parnapaj ale i o kare don i ren wanporon akan, o katiti on irail, duen a kilanadar Kaun o nani al o, o me a kotin majani on i. o duen a jo majak padapadaki ni mar en Iejuj nan Damajkuj.
28He was with them entering into Jerusalem,
28I ari ian irail er kotin pedepedoi jan o pedepedelon on nan lerujalem o padaki aima ni mar en Kaun o.
29preaching boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus. He spoke and disputed against the Hellenists, but they were seeking to kill him.
29I o men Krik kai majan o akamai pena, a re jon kamela i.
30When the brothers knew it, they brought him down to Caesarea and sent him off to Tarsus.
30Jaulan kan lao ajaer, ap ian i kolan Jajarea, ap kadaralan i Tarij.
31So the assemblies throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were built up. They were multiplied, walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit.
31A momodijou kan ap popol o pwaidar nan Iudaa, o Kalilaa, a Jamaria, o re weweid ni majak en Kaun o, o toto kilar popol en Nen jaraui.
32As Peter went throughout all those parts, he came down also to the saints who lived at Lydda.
32A Petruj lao kakan jili nan jap akan, a pil kotila ren me jaraui kan, me kaukaujon Lida.
33There he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden for eight years because he was paralyzed.
33A diaradar aramaj amen waja o, me ad a Aneaj, me wonon par walu, pwe me kokon danidan.
34Peter said to him, “Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you. Get up and make your bed!” Immediately he arose.
34Petruj ari majani on i: Aneaj, Iejuj Krijtuj kakel uk ada. Paurida, pein lim pena ki om! I ari paurida madan.
35All who lived at Lydda and in Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord.
35A karoj me kaukaujon Lida o Jaron, kilanada i, re ap wuki on Kaun o.
36Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which when translated means Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and acts of mercy which she did.
36A tounpadak li amen mi Ioppe, me ad a Tapea (iet wewe: Torkaj), i me dir en wiawia mau kan o kijakij wei.
37In those days, she became sick and died. When they had washed her, they laid her in an upper room.
37A kadekadeo ni ran oko a Jomaudar o melar. Irail lao duper i, ap nekidala nan pera poa.
38As Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to him, imploring him not to delay in coming to them.
38A Lida me koren ion lope. Tounpadak kan lao roner, me Petruj kotikot waja o, rap kadarala ol riamen re a, poekipoeki: Kom der peikajal, koti don kit!
39Peter got up and went with them. When he had come, they brought him into the upper room. All the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the tunics and other garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.
39Petruj ari kotida ian ir ala. I lao pwarado, re ap ukadala i pera poa, o li odi karoj u impa, janejan o kapwareda jakit o likau kan, me Torkaj wiadar ni a mimi re ’rail.
40Peter sent them all out, and knelt down and prayed. Turning to the body, he said, “Tabitha, get up!” She opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
40A Petruj kiiei jan ir karoj, ap kelepuki kapakap, ap jaupei on kalep o majani: Tapea. paurida! I ari pad pajan, kilanada Petruj, ap modadar.
41He gave her his hand and raised her up. Calling the saints and widows, he presented her alive.
41I ari koledi pa a, kauada i. A lao eker pena me jaraui o li odi kan, ap kajale on irail i a maureda.
42This became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.
42Ari a loki jili nan lope, o me toto pojonla Kaun o.
43He stayed many days in Joppa with a tanner named Simon.
43I ari kotikoteta lope ran toto ren jaun me wiada kil en man amen, me ad a Jimon.
