Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1Or don’t you know, brothers (for I speak to men who know the law), that the law has dominion over a man for as long as he lives?
1DE ri ai kan, komail jota aja i kin peidok ren me aja kapun o me kapun o kin poedi aramaj arain a memaur?
2For the woman that has a husband is bound by law to the husband while he lives, but if the husband dies, she is discharged from the law of the husband.
2Pwe li amen, me a warok mia, kin kaupinki kapun en a warok arain a memaur. A ma a warok melar, a muei janer kapun en a warok.
3So then if, while the husband lives, she is joined to another man, she would be called an adulteress. But if the husband dies, she is free from the law, so that she is no adulteress, though she is joined to another man.
3A ma a pan paudeki amen ol ni a warok memaur, a pan adaneki kamal amen; a ma a warok melar, a muei janer kapun, ap jota pan kamal amen, ma a pan pur on amen ol.
4Therefore, my brothers, you also were made dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you would be joined to another, to him who was raised from the dead, that we might produce fruit to God.
4Ari ri ai kan, iduen pil komail mekilar kapun o pweki war en Krijtuj, pwen wiala nain amen, iet, me iajadar jan ren me melar akan, pwen kaparapar on Kot.
5For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were through the law worked in our members to bring out fruit to death.
5Pwe ni at kekeideki tiak en pali uduk, inon en dip me kelail nan kokon atail pweki kapun o, pwen kaparapar on mela.
6But now we have been discharged from the law, having died to that in which we were held; so that we serve in newness of the spirit, and not in oldness of the letter.
6A met kitail muei janer kapun o, pwe jal pat on mela olar, pwe kitail en papa on tiak kap en nen, a kaidin on tiak marin en intin.
7What shall we say then? Is the law sin? May it never be! However, I wouldn’t have known sin except through the law. For I wouldn’t have known coveting unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.”
7Ari, da me kitail en inda? Me dip kapun o? O jo! A i pan jaja dip, ma jo kapun. Pwe I pan jaja duen inon jued, ma kapun jo kalok kidar: Koe der norok!
8But sin, finding occasion through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of coveting. For apart from the law, sin is dead.
8A dip kadiarok kidar kujoned, ap kainon on ia jon en inon jued karoj, pwe ma jota kapun dip mela.
9I was alive apart from the law once, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.
9Pwe maj o i jota mi pan kapun, ap mamaureta, a kujoned lao mia, dip ai ap diarokadar.
10The commandment which was for life, this I found to be for death;
10A nai melar; kujoned, me loki don ia, pwe i en maure kida, kare on ia mela.
11for sin, finding occasion through the commandment, deceived me, and through it killed me.
11Pwe dip kadiarok kidar kujoned liapai ia dar, ap kame ia lar.
12Therefore the law indeed is holy, and the commandment holy, righteous, and good.
12Ari, kapun o me jaraui o kujoned me jaraui, a pun o mau.
13Did then that which is good become death to me? May it never be! But sin, that it might be shown to be sin, was producing death in me through that which is good; that through the commandment sin might become exceedingly sinful.
13A iaduen me mau kot kare on ia mela? O jo! A dip en janjale kida me kamau o ni a kare on ia mela, pwe dip en janjale kida kujoned.
14For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am fleshly, sold under sin.
14Pwe kitail aja, me kapun o me nenin, a nai me uduken o netilan dip.
15For I don’t understand what I am doing. For I don’t practice what I desire to do; but what I hate, that I do.
15Pwe i jota aja, da me i en wia. Pwe kaidin me i mauki, me i kin wiada, a me i kin juedeki, iei me i kin wia.
16But if what I don’t desire, that I do, I consent to the law that it is good.
16Ari, ma i kin wiada, me i kan wia, nan i kin kajanjaleda, me kapun me mau.
17So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.
17A ma i wiadar, me i jota men wia, kaidin nai me wiadar, a dip me mimi lol i.
18For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For desire is present with me, but I don’t find it doing that which is good.
18Pwe i aja, me jota mau kot mi lol i nan uduk ai, pwe i kin men wiada me mau, a en anada me pun i jota kak on.
19For the good which I desire, I don’t do; but the evil which I don’t desire, that I practice.
19Pwe me mau o, me i men wiada, i jota kin kapwaida, a me jued, me i kan, i me i kin wiada.
20But if what I don’t desire, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.
20A ma i wiada, me i jo men wiada, kaidin nai me wiada, a dip me mi lol i.
21I find then the law that, while I desire to do good, evil is present.
21let me kapun kadiarok on ia: Ni ai men wiada me mau, me jued mimi re i.
22For I delight in God’s law after the inward person,
22Pwe i kin mauki kapun en Kot pali lol en aramaj.
23but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members.
23I ap diaradar eu kapun ni ai kokon akan, me kin palian kapun en loli, ap kalua ia di pan kapun en dip, me mi nan ai kokon akan.
24What a wretched man I am! Who will deliver me out of the body of this death?
24O nai aramaj luet amen! Ij me pan kamaio wei ia jan ni war mela wet!
25I thank God through Jesus Christ, our Lord! So then with the mind, I myself serve God’s law, but with the flesh, sin’s law.
25I danke Kot pweki Iejuj Krijtuj atail Kaun. Nan lol i i kin papan kapun en Kot, a ni pali uduk kapun en dip.
