1 Thessalonians 1
1 Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
PAULUS, o Silwanus, o Timoteus ong momodisou en Tesalonik, me ren Kot Sam o Kaun Iesus Kristus. Mak o popol en mi re omail!
2 We always give thanks to God for all of you, mentioning you in our prayers,
Se kin poden danke Kot ki komail karos o tamataman kin komail ni at kapakap akan.
3 remembering without ceasing your work of faith and labour of love and perseverance of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father.
O se kin tamatamanda omail wiawia kan ni poson, o omail dodok ni limpok, o omail kanongama ni kaporoporeki atail Kaun Iesus Kristus sansal ong Kot o Sam atail.
4 We know, brothers loved by God, that you are chosen,
Pwe ri ai kan o kompoke pan Kot akan, se asa duen omail lipilipil re a,
5 and that our Good News came to you not in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit and with much assurance. You know what kind of men we showed ourselves to be amongst you for your sake.
Pwe at rongamau lel ong komail er, kaidin nin lokaia ta, a pil ni manaman o Ngen saraui, o ni kamelelepa kaualap, pwe komail asa song en aramas da kit re omail pweki komail.
6 You became imitators of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit,
A komail ale sanger kit o sang Kaun o, ni omail aleer masan o ni kamekam kaualap o ni peren en Ngen saraui.
7 so that you became an example to all who believe in Macedonia and in Achaia.
Komail wialar kilel en saulang karos mi Masetonien o Akaia.
8 For from you the word of the Lord has been declared, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith towards God has gone out, so that we need not to say anything.
Pwe sang re omail masan en Kaun o kaparaparalar, kaidin nan Masetonien o Akaia eta, pwe pil wasa karos omail poson Kot lokila ia; ari, solar me se pan inda.
9 For they themselves report concerning us what kind of a reception we had from you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve a living and true God,
Pwe pein irail kaire kin kit, duen at pwaralang komail me pwaida, o duen omail wuki ong Kot sang dikedik en ani kan, pwen papang Kot, me udan maur o melel.
10 and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead: Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath to come.
O auiaui sapwilim a Ol sang nanlang, me a kotin kaiasada sang ren me melar akan, Iesus, me kotin dore kitail sang ni ongiong en Kot, me pan sansaldo.
