Matthew 11
1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished giving instructions to his twelve disciples, he passed on from thence, to be teaching and proclaiming in their cities.
KADEKADEO Iesus lao kaimwisokela a masan ong sapwilim a tounpadak ekriamen, ap kotila sang wasa o, pwen kaukawewe o padapadak nan ar kanim akan.
2 Now, John, hearing in the prison the works of the Christ, sending through his disciples,
A Ioaneis lao ronger nan imateng wiawian Kristus, ap poronela a tounpadak kai.
3 said unto him, Art, thou, the coming one? or, a different one, are we to expect?
Kalelapok re a: Ir me pan kotido, de sen auiaui amen?
4 And, answering, Jesus said unto them—Go report unto John what ye do hear and see: —
Iesus kotin sapeng masani ong irail: Komail kowei kaireki Ioanes, me komail rong o kilang:
5 The, blind, recover sight, and, the lame, walk, lepers, are cleansed, and, the deaf, hear, —and, the dead, are raised, and, the destitute, are told the joyful tidings;
Me maskun akan kin kilang wasa, o me dangidang kan kin alu, o me tuketuk kan kin makeladar, o me salongepon kan kin rong wasa, o me melar akan kin maureda, o rongamau kin loloki ong me samama kan.
6 And, happy, is he, whosoever shall not find cause of stumbling, in me.
O meid pai, me sota pan makar kin ia.
7 But, as these were going their way, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes, concerning John, —What went ye forth into the wilderness to gaze at? A reed, by a wind, shaken?
Mepukat lao kokola, Iesus ap kotin tapiadar mamasani ong pokon o duen Ioanes: Da me komail koieila en kilang nan sap tan? Alek pot, me kin dueduälokki ang?
8 But what went ye forth to see? A man, in soft clothing, arrayed? Lo! they who soft clothing do wear, are in the houses of kings.
De da me komail koieila en kilang? Aramas amen nan likau muterok? Kilang, me kin likau kida likau muterok, kin mi nan im en nanmarki kan.
9 But why went ye forth? A prophet, to see? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.
De da me komail koieila en kilang? Saukop amen? Ei I indai ong komail a laude sang saukop amen.
10 This, is he, concerning whom it is written, —Lo! I, send my messenger before thy face, who shall make ready thy way before thee!
Pwe iei i, me intingidier: Kilang I kadarala mo’mui ai men kadar, me pan koko al mo’mui.
11 Verily, I say unto you—There hath not arisen, among such as are born of women, a greater than John the Immerser, —yet, he that is less in the kingdom of the heavens, is, greater than he.
Melel I indai ong komail, sota me ipwidi sang ren li akan, me laude sang Ioanes saunpaptais. Ari so, me tikitik nan wein nanlang, iei me laude sang i.
12 But, from the days of John the Immerser, until even now, the kingdom of the heavens, is being invaded, and, invaders, are, seizing upon it.
A sang ni muein Ioanes saunpaptais kokodo lel met wein nanlang kokido eta manaman, ari me manaman akan kin koledi ong irail.
13 For, all the prophets and the law, until John, did prophesy;
Pwe saukop karos o kapung kokopadar lao lel Ioanes.
14 And, if ye are willing to accept it, he, is Elijah—the one destined to come.
O ma komail men duki ong, nan iei Elias, me pan kodo.
15 He that hath ears, let him hear!
Me salong a mia, men rong, i en rong!
16 But, unto what, shall I liken this generation? It is, like, unto children, sitting the market-places, who, calling unto the others,
A da me I en karasai ong di wet? A ras ong seri kan, me kin momod nan wasan net akan o likelikwir ong kis arail,
17 say, We played the flute to you, and ye danced not, —we sang a lament, and ye beat not the breast.
Indada: Kit kasang ong komail, a komail, sota kakalek; kit kauleki ong komail kaul en mamauk, a komail sota sangesang.
18 For, John, came, neither eating nor drinking, and they say—A demon, he hath!
Pwe Ioanes pwarado, ap sota kang o nim, a re kin inda: Nan tewil kin ti poa.
19 The Son of Man, came, eating and drinking, and they say, Lo! a gluttonous man and a wine-drinker! a friend of, tax-collectors, and sinners! And yet wisdom hath been justified by her works.
Nain aramas pwarado, mangamanga o nim, a re kin inda: Kilang, me kaped en manga o kamom sakau, kompoke pan saunopwei o me dipan akan, a lolekong o kin diarok kida na seri ko.
20 Then, began he to upbraid the cities, in which had been done his noblest mighty works; because they repented not: —
A kotin tapiada kidaueda kanim akan, me a wiai onger manaman to to, aki re sota kalula:
21 Alas for thee, Chorazin! Alas for thee, Bethsaida! Because, if, in Tyre and Zidon, had been done the works of power, which were done in you, of old, in sackcloth and ashes, had they repented.
Suedi ong uk Korasin! Suedi ong uk Petsaida! Pwe ma manaman akan, me wiaui ong uk er, wiauier ong Tirus o Sidon, nan melel re pan pitipit kalula nan tuk en likau o nan pas.
22 Moreover, I say unto you, For Tyre and Zidon, more tolerable, will it be, in the day of judgment, than for you.
A I indai ong komail, a pan mongai ong Tirus o Sidon ni ran en kadeik sang komail.
23 And, thou, Capernaum! Unto heaven, shalt thou be uplifted? Unto hades, thou shall be brought down; because, if, in Sodom, had been done the works of power, which were done in thee, it would, in that case, have remained until this day. (Hadēs g86)
A koe Kapernaum, me paidar lel nanlang, pan pisikindi nan pweleko; pwe ma manaman akan, me wiaui ong uk er, wiauier ong Sodom, nan a pan mimieta lao lel ran wet. (Hadēs g86)
24 Moreover, I say unto you—For the land of Sodom, more tolerable, will it be in a day of judgment, than, for thee.
A I indai ong komail, a pan mongai ong sap en Sodom ni ran mi kadeik sang koe.
25 In that season, answered Jesus, and said—I openly give praise unto thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, —in that thou hast hid these things from the wise and discerning, and hast revealed them unto babes;
Ni ansau ota Iesus kotin tapiadar masani: I kapinga komui Sam, Kaun pan lang o sappa, me komui okila mepukat sang me lolekong o koiok kan, ap kasale ong seri pwelel akan.
26 Yea, O Father! That, so, it hath become, a delight, before thee.
Ei Sam ai, pwe iduen me komui kupukupura.
27 All things, unto me, have been delivered up by my Father; and, no one, fully knoweth the Son, save the rather, neither doth any one fully know, the Father, save, the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son, may be minded, to reveal, him.
Meakaros muei ong ia er sang ren Sam ai, o sota amen, me asa sapwilim a Ol, pwe Sam eta, o sota amen, me asa Sam, pwe sapwilim a Ol eta, o me sapwilim a Ol pan kasale ong.
28 Come unto me! all ye that toil and are burdened, and, I, will give you rest:
Komail karos, me pangadar o toutoular kodo re i I pan kamoleilei komail la.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me, —because, meek, am I and lowly, in heart, and ye shall find rest unto your souls;
Ale ong komail ai iok, o padakki sang ia; pwe Ngai me opampap o karakarak melel, komail ari pan diarada kamol pan ngen omail.
30 For, my yoke, is easy, and, my burden, light.
Pwe ai iok me mangai, o katoutou pai me marara.
