Matäuj 11
1 KADEKADEO Iejuj lao kaimwijokela a majan on japwilim a tounpadak ekriamen, ap kotila jan waja o, pwen kaukawewe o padapadak nan ar kanim akan.
AND it was that when Jeshu had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he removed from thence to teach and preach in their cities.
2 A Ioaneij lan roner nan imaten wiawian Krijtuj, ap poronela a tounpadak kai.
But Juchanon, when he heard in the house of the bound the works of the Meshicha, sent by his disciples,
3 Kalelapok re a: Ir me pan kotido, de jen auiaui amen?
and said to him, Art thou He that cometh, or another are we to expect?
4 Iejuj kotin japen majani on irail: Komail kowei kaireki Ioanej, me komail ron o kilan:
Jeshu answered and said to them, Go, recount to Juchanon these things which you hear and see;
5 Me majkun akan kin kilan waja, o me danidan kan kin alu, o me tuketuk kan kin makeladar, o me jalonepon kan kin ron waja, o me melar akan kin maureda, o ronamau kin loloki on me jamama kan.
(that) the blind see, the lame are walking, the lepers are made clean, the deaf hear, the dead arise, and the poor are evangelized;
6 O meid pai, me jota pan makar kin ia.
and blessed is he who shall not be offended with me.
7 Mepukat lao kokola, Iejuj ap kotin tapiadar mamajani on pokon o duen Ioanej: Da me komail koieila en kilan nan jap tan? Alek pot, me kin duedualokki an?
But when they were gone, Jeshu began to speak to the assembly concerning Juchanon: What went you forth into the waste to see? a reed that by the wind was shaken?
8 De da me komail koieila en kilan? Aramaj amen nan likau muterok? Kilan, me kin likau kida likau muterok, kin mi nan im en nanmarki kan.
And if not, what went you forth to see? a man clothed in soft vestments? Behold, they who are softly clothed are in the house of kings.
9 De da me komail koieila en kilan? Jaukop amen? Ei I indai on komail a laude jan jaukop amen.
And if not, what went you forth to see? a prophet? I tell you, Yes; and more than a prophet.
10 Pwe iei i, me intinidier: Kilan I kadarala mo’mui ai men kadar, me pan koko al mo’mui.
For this is he concerning whom it is written, Behold, I send my angel before thy face, to prepare the way before thee.
11 Melel I indai on komail, jota me ipwidi jan ren li akan, me laude jan Ioanej jaunpaptaij. Ari jo, me tikitik nan wein nanlan, iei me laude jan i.
Amen I say to you, there hath not arisen among them born of women who greater than Juchanon the Baptizer: yet, the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
12 A jan ni muein Ioanej jaunpaptaij kokodo lei met wein nanlan kokido eta manaman, ari me manaman akan kin koledi on irail.
But from the days of Juchanon the Baptizer until now, the kingdom of the heavens by violence is taken, and the violent ones seize it.
13 Pwe jaukop karoj o kapun kokopadar lao lei Ioanej.
For all the prophets and the law prophesied until Juchanon;
14 O ma komail men duki on, nan iei Eliaj, me pan kodo.
and if you are willing, receive, that he is Elia who was to come.
15 Me jalon a mia, men ron, i en ron!
Whoever hath ears to hear, he shall hear.
16 A da me I en karajai on di wet? A raj on jeri kan, me kin momod nan wajan net akan o likelikwir on kij arail,
BUT to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children who sit in the public place, and cry to their companions,
17 Indada: Kit kajan on komail, a komail, jota kakalek; kit kauleki on komail kaul en mamauk, a komail jota janejan.
and say, We have sung to you, and you have not danced; we have wailed unto you, and you have not mourned.
18 Pwe Ioanej pwarado, ap jota kan o nim, a re kin inda: Nan tewil kin ti poa.
For Juchanon came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a devil.
19 Nain aramaj pwarado, manamana o nim, a re kin inda: Kilan, me kaped en mana o kamom jakau, kompoke pan jaunopwei o me dipan akan, a lolekon o kin diarok kida na jeri ko.
The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, See a man a devourer, a wine-drinker, a friend of tribute-takers and of sinners. But justified is wisdom by her servants.
20 A kotin tapiada kidaueda kanim akan, me a wiai oner manaman to to, aki re jota kalula:
Then began Jeshu to reproach those cities in which were done many of his miracles, and which did not repent,
21 Juedi on uk Korajin! Juedi ON uk Petjaida! Pwe ma manaman akan, me wiaui on uk er, wiauier on Tiruj o Jidon, nan melel re pan pitipit kalula nan tuk en likau o nan paj.
saying, Woe to thee, Korazin! woe to thee, Bethtsaida! for if in Tsur and in Tsaidon those miracles had been done which have been performed in you, they would a while ago in sackcloth and ashes have repented.
22 A I indai on komail, a pan monai on Tiruj o Jidon ni ran en kadeik jan komail.
But I say to you, that for Tsur and Tsaidon it shall be more tolerable in the day of judgment than for you.
23 A koe Kapernaum, me paidar lel nanlan, pan pijikindi nun pweleko; pwe ma manaman akan, me wiaui on uk er, wiauier on Jodom, nan a pan mimieta lau lel ran wet. (Hadēs g86)
And thou, Kaphernachum, who unto heaven art exalted, unto Shiul shalt be brought down; for if in Sadum had been done those miracles which have been done in thee, it would have stood until this day. (Hadēs g86)
24 A I indai on komail, a pan monai on jap en Jodom ni ran mi kadeik jan koe.
But I tell you that for the land of Sadum it shall be more tolerable in the day of judgment than for thee.
25 Ni anjau ota Iejuj kotin tapiadar majani: I kapina komui Jam, Kaun pan lan o jappa, me komui okila mepukat jan me lolekon o koiok kan, ap kajale on jeri pwelel akan.
IN that time Jeshu answered and said, I praise thee, my Father, the Lord of the heavens and of the earth, that thou hast concealed these (things) from the wise and prudent, but hast revealed them unto little children.
26 Ei Jam ai, pwe iduen me komui kupukupura.
Yes, my Father, for thus was it pleasing before thee!
27 Meakaroj muei on ia er jan ren Jam ai, o jota amen, me aja japwilim a Ol, pwe Jam eta, o jota amen, me aja Jam, pwe japwilim a Ol eta, o me japwilim a Ol pan kajale on.
All things are delivered to me from my Father; and no man knoweth the Son but the Father; also the Father no man knoweth, except the Son, and he (to) whom the Son pleaseth to reveal (him).
28 Komail karoj, me panadar o toutoular kodo re i I pan kamolielei komail la.
Come unto me, all you (who) are wearied and bearing burdens, and I will give you rest.
29 Ale on komail ai iok, o padakki jan ia; pwe Nai me opampap o karakarak melel, komail ari pan diarada kamol pan nen omail.
Bear my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am peaceful and lowly in my heart, and you shall find repose for your souls.
30 Pwe ai iok me manai, o katoutou pai me marara.
For my yoke is kindly, and my burden is light.
