alp: Eleki ro tiae meru esi lupuke kamala meru kena otoi sae me esi nane kena sou Ibranire Harmagedone.


eng: The name of the star is “Wormwood.” One third of the waters became wormwood. Many people died from the waters, because they were made bitter.

eng: the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne and worship him who lives forever and ever, and throw their crowns before the throne, saying,

alp: Eleki elaka sie butu lua lesini ata meru esi tatu roma tapele loko Ile rebe Irue kena otoi maka rue mere eleki esi holmate Ile maka rue eti pela mere. Eleki esi tolae esi liuta me uluisu kena otoi maka rue mere kai esi beteke be,


eng: The first creature was like a lion, the second creature like a calf, the third creature had a face like a man, and the fourth was like a flying eagle.

Tuhane bei akmena Amei peneka, kena meije Amei kai eti pelare Amei lekwe.”


eng: He will rule them with a rod of iron, shattering them like clay pots, as I also have received of my Father;

eng: and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us, and washed us from our sins by his blood—

eng: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and the three agree as one.

alp: Hoko rebe saksi kena Yesuse, saksia telu: Ro Misete, kwele kai lalakwe. Yela telu mere utiluke bukti kena Yesuse.


eng: I write to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name’s sake.

eng: I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, little children, because you know the Father.

alp: Amata imi, au leki meije ete imi, le imi rekwa Yesuse Kristuse peneka. Yesuse Kristuse rebe kena nusa meije tola mosare Ime pende. Kwete beluka imi, au leki meije ete imi, le imi lesi ro tiaru esi elake peneka.


eng: by which means the world that existed then, being overflowed with water, perished.

alp: Sepo esi beteke ele mere, saka esi ono lelemake be esi nete loko akmenare Alla atia nusa meije rebai sae mosa. Le Alla Itolae nusa meije Ipake Eni lepate. Itolae nusa meije bei kwele kai Ipake kwele kena itolae nusa meije. Ele mere lekwe, akmenare, Iatia nusa meije kena kwele lolo nusare.


eng: For, uttering great swelling words of emptiness, they entice in the lusts of the flesh, by licentiousness, those who are indeed escaping from those who live in error;

alp: Kwakwaesi kai esi lepae nloene sasaisa neka. Esi umauke tamata kena lulu esi hnaunaru, esi beteke be, “Ite lulu iteki suka rebe esiri bei iteki lale tiare.” Hoko esi atia tamata rebe uke esi hleke bei esi maka lulu tamata rebe esi lulu lalane tiare.


eng: promising them liberty, while they themselves are bondservants of corruption; for a man is brought into bondage by whoever overcomes him.

alp: Kurua tinai mo mere esi atetuke tamatare elere, “Ite supu tie bei hukume peneka, hoko mai ite ono lulu ite ruamaki sukare.” Po hidupe neune rebe eatiaise, ekbasaesi peneka. Le saisa rebe ite lulu rame, mere pine ekbasae itere.


eng: Forsaking the right way, they went astray, having followed the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of wrongdoing;

alp: Esi lulu lalane ntoline mo po esi lulu Beore eni nanae nabi Bileame. Bileame mere batuke lalei loko kepene rebe isupue bei eni atate tiare.


eng: but he was rebuked for his own disobedience. A speechless donkey spoke with a man’s voice and stopped the madness of the prophet.

alp: Po Bileame eni keledaije elepa kaini saka tamata kena ehkutui ktili le eni neune, hoko Bileame isupu lake bei atate boroke mere.


eng: and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, having made them an example to those who would live in an ungodly way,

alp: Sakesa kai kota Sodome kai Gomorare neka. Alla Ihukume kota lua meru kena auwe eti atia pusue leke ite rekwa be tamata rebe ilulu Tuhane Eni sukare more isupu hukumane elake.


eng: and delivered righteous Lot, who was very distressed by the lustful life of the wicked

alp: Po Tuhane Iono Lote ihlamate le ihidupe nkena. Lote susa titinai le tamata esi suka rebe nkenare mo. Bei esi lale tiare hoko esi atate tiae.


eng: (for that righteous man dwelling among them was tormented in his righteous soul from day to day with seeing and hearing lawless deeds),

alp: Le Lote rebe eni hidupe nkena meije irue otoi esa kai tamata neunaru hoko pela peture iselu kai ilene esi ono neunaru hoko laleije susa titinai.


eng: For he received from God the Father honor and glory when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

alp: Kena Alla Amate Iono Isupu isike kai Isupu holmate, ami me lekwe. Kena mere ami lene Maka Kbasa Elake Ibeteke be, “Meije Auku Anae rebe Au okiNi. Iono laleKue ndina!”


eng: We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.

alp: Ami lene lepate mere bei ndete surga kena ami sakesa kaiNi ndete ulate rebe Tuhane Ililake pende.


eng: and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, perseverance; and in perseverance, godliness;

alp: Kai imi raka nanami mimise. Batuke ono meije mo, po bei imi lulu Tuhane Eni sukare,


eng: and in godliness, brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.

alp: rekwa bei ono misete ete tamata makete rebe esi hlaleke loko Tuhane kai oki pusue tamata lekwe.


eng: Let your beauty come not from the outward adorning of braiding your hair, and of wearing gold ornaments or of putting on fine clothing,

alp: Imi ntekite batuke selu bei mei muli yake molupe andulike bua pise alike porole inai, sapuku kai bobale pise alike pakiane rebe esi beline elare yake.


eng: but from the hidden person of the heart, in the incorruptible adornment of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in God’s sight.

alp: Mise lesire imi aseluke imi sifate misete. Imi mau kai nasuke lomai mo. Sifate ele mere etahane rame kai ete Allare emise. Makete bei oa lale ntekite rebe tatike pine nteki more.


eng: Servants, be in subjection to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the wicked.

alp: Kwali betaya rebe imi ono tamata makerike imi lene loko sie rebe imi kerike eteise kai holmatesi titinai. Batuke ete sie rebe lalesi mise kai esi maure mo po ete sie rebe esi ktolore lekwe.


eng: For it is commendable if someone endures pain, suffering unjustly, because of conscience toward God.

alp: Alla Iriluke misete ete imi sepo imi lulu Eni sukare kai masike esi ono imi papalaine po imi tahane.


eng: who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in this last age for your sake,

alp: Kristuse Isupu bitike bei Alla kena nusa meije tola mosa. Kai kena meije rebe lau mo nusare koho nere Alla IulakeNi lomei nusa leke Ihlamate imi.


eng: who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope might be in God.

alp: Alla pine Iono Yesuse Ikwana suike, eleki IonoI sa lolete surga, otoi rebe nanu titinaije. Bei saisa rebe Yesuse Kristuse Ionoe ete imire, eono imi hlaleke loko Alla. Namake Alla Iono imi hlamate, hoko imi persaye kai hlaleke lokoI.


eng: knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things like silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers,

alp: Imi hidupe suke nkena le saisa rebe Alla Ipake kena seli imi leke imi siri bei hidupe rebe esi guna sasaisa mo rebe imi ntuana menaru esi tolaele ete imire, imi rekwa peneka. Kena seli imire, Alla Ipake mase pise perake rebe namake silane kanele mo.


eng: but with precious blood, as of a lamb without blemish or spot, the blood of Christ,

alp: Alla Ipake yele rebe esi beline ela titinai, mere Kristuse Eni lalakwe. Yesuse ruaI Iono saka domba anai misete titinai rebe palae ete Allare.


eng: Concerning this salvation, the prophets sought and searched diligently. They prophesied of the grace that would come to you,

alp: Hlamate rebe Alla Iriluke ete imi meije, nabiaru esi beteke bei akmena sa. Misete rebe Alla Irilukele, akmenare nabiaru esi atetukele kai esi atula kena rekwae mimise,


eng: searching for who or what kind of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them pointed to when he predicted the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow them.

alp: le esi suka rekwa be Kristuse Isupu susate elia kai petu ila pine Isupu isike kai pusue tatu lokoIje. Esi noake loko mere le Kristuse Eni Rore Ikbasae esi maka noake hoko esi rekwa be namake Kristuse Isupu susate mina pine pusue isikeNi kai tatu lokoI.


eng: whom, not having known, you love. In him, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory,

alp: Kwali betaya, akmenare masike imi seluI mo po Imi okiNi. Kai meije lekwe masike imi seluI mosa po imi hlaleke lokoI kai lalemi ndina titinai,


eng: receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

alp: le imi supu hlamate. Imi supu hlamate bei imi hlaleke lokoIje.


eng: to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that doesn’t fade away, reserved in Heaven for you,

alp: Kwali betaya, mai ite pusuma isike Alla. Ile, iteki Tuhane Yesuse Kristuse Eni Amai, kai Yesuse Kristuse lekwe Itatu lokoI. Ite isikeNi le laleIje noa ite titinai hoko Iono ite supu hidupe beluke le Iono Yesuse Kristuse Ikwana suike. Alla Iono misete mere eono ite hlaleke ktili. Iteki hidupe batuke hlalekeNi le namake Iono ite supu rue kai Alla eti pela. Rue kai Alla eti pela mere saka tanei rebe Alla Iaknekaele ete ite ndete surga peneka. Kai eono saka tanei rebe atia mo, pulue mo pise esi mataije sirikele mo.


eng: according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, that you may obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with his blood: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.

alp: Kwali betaya, au Petruse, au leki sulate meije ete imi rebe luake kai rue me otoi Pontuse, Galatia, Kapadokia, Asia kai Bitinia. Imi rue ete mere saka tamata makete me kai tamata rebe esi rekwa Tuhane mosare. Yesuse Kristuse Ibitike au kena Eni maka ulake. Au kotie bei Alla leke Iriluke misete ete imi kai Iono laleime ndene noma. Kwali betaya, Alla Iono Amate ete ite pusuma, Ile pine Ibitike imi pusumi le imi ono Eni tamata lulu Eni rencana bei akmena sa. Baue Alla Eni Rore Iono imire, ruaI Eni tamata leke imi lene loko Yesuse Kristuse. Kai ponike Yesuse Kristuse Eni lalakwe kena ampune imi dosaru.


eng: Brothers, if any among you wanders from the truth and someone turns him back,

alp: Kwali betaya, imi nete mimise! Sepo sae bei imi pine iono lulu Tuhane Eni hnaune nkenale moneka, po sae makete ilepa etei eleki iono nkenale suike, hoko tamata mere iono mise titinai peneka.


eng: let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.

alp: Sire pine ilepa ete tamata maka ono dosa eleki ihleke bei eni nsalale kai ileu suike loko Alla kai Eni lepataru, hoko tamata maka lepa mere ihlamate eni ebe bei supu susate rame eti pelare peneka, kai Alla Iampuneni eni dosa bokalaru. Hlamate ete imi pusumi, Yakobuse


eng: Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receives the early and late rain.

alp: Kwali betaya. Tamata rebe esi taneia bokala esi ono susate kai hukume imi, imi tahane lalemi kai namake neka eti Tuhane Iluake suike. Imi selu tamata maka andinure: tamata maka andinure itahane lalei kai inamake eti isupu ndinure esi hasile misete, rebe eono isupu manane. Inamake bei ulane talei kena atnane eti ulane talei suike kena tnanele bua.


eng: You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

alp: Ele mere hoko imi tahane lalemi kai akbere lalemi neka, le petu kena Tuhane Iluake suike lau moneka.


eng: You have lived in luxury on the earth, and taken your pleasure. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter.

alp: Imi taneia boka peneka, lalemi ndina le nusa meije esi hasile peneka. Imi sakesa kai binatane rebe pialaele leke enkopa eti esi petu kena esupu bunu kai kanele.


eng: You have condemned and you have murdered the righteous one. He doesn’t resist you.

alp: Imi hukume kai bunu tamata rebe esi sala sae mo, rebe esi lelie tekwa imi more lekwe.


eng: For you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will both live, and do this or that.”

alp: Suke imi beteke elere, “Sepo Alla Asuka, hoko ami hidupe kai ami ono sasaisa neka.”


eng: But now you glory in your boasting. All such boasting is evil.

alp: Po mo, kwakwae imi rame. Imi lepa kwakwae ele mere pusulu sala.


eng: Be subject therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

alp: Hoko suke kwakwae imi loko Alla yake kai lulu Eni lapataru rame. Ele mere hoko imi lelie ro tiaru esi elake hoko enaya bei imi.


eng: Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners. Purify your hearts, you double-minded.

alp: Imi tehaike Alla hoko Alla lekwe Itehaike imi. Imia rebe imi ono dosare hleke bei ono dosa kai lalemi batuke hlaleke loko Alla neka leke lalemi mise.


eng: But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don’t boast and don’t lie against the truth.

alp: Po sepo imi lalemi tiake tamata le eni sasaisa neka kai batuke imi nete loko ruami, hoko kwakwae imi kai lemake be imi rekwa mise yake. Le mere ebroka Alla Eni nkenale.


eng: This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic.

alp: Rekwa mise titinai saka mere ebei Alla mo, po ebei mei nusa meije, bei tamata eni lale neune rebe ebei ro tiare.


eng: Does a spring send out from the same opening fresh and bitter water?

alp: Noake mimise! Kwele bolai esare esupu sirie kwele misete kai kwele nkalene mo.


eng: Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh water.

alp: Kwali betaya, arare esi buai saitune mo. Kai anggure lekwe esi buai ara mo. Sakesa neka, kwele bolai rebe esirie kwele nkalene esupu sirie kwele misete mo.


eng: Indeed, we put bits into the horses’ mouths so that they may obey us, and we guide their whole body.

alp: Ite bandine kai kudare. Sepo ite tolae mekute kena kudare esi biruije leke elulu iteki sukare, hoko pusue kudare esi nanakwalaije ite supu kbasaele. Eleyo mekute tone.


eng: Behold, the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires.

alp: Kai selu kapale, masike kapale elake kai sanute kerie lori lopai, po maka keri kapale ibuli kemudire leke kapale keu lulu eni sukare. Eleyo kemudire tone.


eng: So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!

alp: Kai selu aure, masike tone po esupu kotu aiela elakaru. Pusue meru sakesa kai iteki meimaru neka, masike tone po kwakwae le yelu elakaru.


eng: Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment.

alp: Kwali betaya, imi lene mimise! Au kotie bei imi leke imi ono kuru boka yake. Au beteke ele mere leke imi nete suike be kena Alla Iteu pakala ete tamatare Iteu pakala ete kurure ktili lesi.


eng: For we all stumble in many things. Anyone who doesn’t stumble in word is a perfect person, able to bridle the whole body also.

alp: Batuke kuru mo, piasare ite pusuma ono dosa bokala po sire pine eni lepate eono dosa mo, hoko ile tamata misete titinai kai irekwa kena iraka ruai.


eng: and you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing and say, “Sit here in a good place;” and you tell the poor man, “Stand there,” or “Sit by my footstool”

alp: Eleki imi holmate ile rebe eni taneia bokala rebe ialike lapune misete mere kai imi beteke lokoi be, “Ntuane, mai rue kena otoi misete meije.” Yo ete tamata rebe eni tanei sae more imi beteke lokoi be, “Kele ete mpaije.” Pise imi beteke lokoi be, “Rue mpe uwe tehaike auku lelale.”


eng: haven’t you shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

alp: Sepo imi ono ele mere imi hbeike lomai kai imi selu tamatare lulu imi lale neune.


eng: For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man looking at his natural face in a mirror;

alp: Le sire pine batuke ilene Alla Eni lepataru neka po iono lulu mo, ile mere lupe tamata rebe ililake oalaleije kena telminare.


eng: for he sees himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.

alp: Iselu oalaleije pela eleki ikeu kai inete moneka be oalaleije elia.


eng: Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God can’t be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.

alp: Sepo sae isupu teheke hoko ibeteke be isupu teheke bei Alla yake! Le sepo masike Alla Isupu teheke po Itetu mo kai ruaI lekwe Iteheke tamata mo.


eng: But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own lust and enticed.

alp: Po sepo tamata sae isupu teheke eleki itetu hoko mere itetu bei ruai eni sukare, le laleije loko tiare peneka. Mere lupe iane supu kerike le ekane umpane lulu esi sukare.


eng: Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin. The sin, when it is full grown, produces death.

alp: Kai sepo ilulu laleije kena ono tiare hoko mere iono dosa, kai sepo dosa mere iono rame hoko imata kai lau bei Alla neka.


eng: But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.

alp: Po mahabe kotie loko Tuhane suke hlaleke ktili lokoI. Kai noake be supu pise mo yake. Le tamata rebe inoake ele mere sakesa kai kohua ndau meite rebe balate ehbue lori lopaije.


eng: For that man shouldn’t think that he will receive anything from the Lord.

alp: Tamata ele mere inoake be isupu sasaisa bei Tuhane yake.


eng: He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

alp: Le tamata ele mere iblake ndene mo kai laleije supu lisuke bei sasaisa neka saka tapuana rebe balate elisuke lori lopaije.


eng: Therefore let’s also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with perseverance the race that is set before us,

alp: Kwali betaya, tamata bokala me rebe esi hlaleke loko Tuhane akmenare esi aseluke ete ite peneka be esi hlaleke ktili. Hoko mai ite hleke bei ono dosa kai hleke yelu rebe pele ite kena hlaleke ktili loko Tuhane, leke ite atula titinai kena hlaleke ktili. Kai ono saisa rebe Tuhane Itiluke ite kena onore, saka tamata maka balare iatula titinai leke ikusu penese akmena.


eng: looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

alp: Suke ite lalema loko Yesuse rame le Ile pine Iono ite hlaleke ktili rame bei menai eti pela. Yesuse Itahane kena supu susate ndete ai tutine. Yesuse Imata kena ai tutine Iblake asomi mo. Batuke Inoake saisa rebe tatike pine Alla Irilukele eteI ndete surgare. Meije Irue sapleuke Alla eni makwanale kai Iplete sakesa kaiNi.


eng: to whom it was said, “Your offspring will be accounted as from Isaac,”

alp: Bei Abrahame eni maka hlaleke mere lekwe, pine kena Alla Itehekeine, iriluke Isake saka tanei rebe palae ete Alla. Abrahame isupu Isake peneka, rebe Alla Italuke eteije be, “Namake amu anae Isake isupu anubua boka lulu Au taluke ete ale.” Eleyo Abrahame iriluke eni nanae esane mere saka tanei rebe palae ete Allare.


eng: no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother—especially to me, but how much rather to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.

alp: Alla Isebeie Onesimuse ikeu bei ale toto mina piseu, leke ileu suike loko ale eti pela. Aranai batuke kena iono tamata makerike rebe kbasa sae mo ete ale moneka, po aranai lupe kwali rebe aokini. Au okini po suke aokini lesi leneka. Le ile amu tamata makerike kai ile tamata rebe Ioki Tuhane lupe ale neka.


eng: I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers,

alp: Pela au kotie bei Allare, au kotie ete ale lekwe, au kotie trima kasi ete Alla rame.


eng: hearing of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints,

alp: Le au lene be aoki pusue tamata rebe esi hlaleke loko Allare kai ahlaleke loko Tuhane Yesuse rame.


eng: to the beloved Apphia, to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the assembly in your house:

alp: Auku ebe Pilemone, au Pauluse, au sakesa kai iteki kwali Timotiuse leki sulate meije etemu. Ale amiki ebe misete, kai ebe makerike kena layani Kristuse! Au leki lekwe ete iteki beta Apia kai ete iteki ebe Arkipuse rebe ilepae Sou misete ktili sakesa kai ite kai ilayani loko Allare ktili lupe itere neka masike supu susate boka bei tamata maketa. Au leki lekwe ete jemate toini rebe esi lupu me amu lumare. Au supu alese meije le au lepae Sou Misete kena Kristuse Yesuse.


eng: But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared,

alp: Po Alla, iteki Maka Hlamate Iaseluke be Intekwa kai Ioki ite,


eng: not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,

alp: Ihlamate ite bei dosa. Ihlamate ite bei ite rue nkenare mo po bei ruaI laleIje noa ite. Ihlamate itere Ro Misete Ikbasae ite lalema leke ite hleke bei ono dosa. Mere saka ruele ite suike kai ite hidupe beluke. Mere Alla Iono Ro Misete Iono lalemaru mise.


eng: for Demas left me, having loved this present world, and went to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia; and Titus to Dalmatia.

alp: le Demase ikeu bei au peneka. Ikeu bei au le Isuka nusa meije esi misete kuate. Ikeu lopai kota Tesalonika peneka. Kai le au ulake Kreskese ikeu lopai otoi Galatia, kai Tituse ikeu lopai otoi Dalmatia. Hoko luasi keu peneka.


eng: Only Luke is with me. Take Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful to me for service.

alp: Batuke Lukase ruai pine irue kai au. Alomei sakesa kai Markuse le imise kena kerike tapa au kena layani Alla.


eng: But I sent Tychicus to Ephesus.

alp: Luami lomei mina le au ulake Tikikuse ikeu lome kota Epsuse peneka.


eng: Even as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these also oppose the truth, men corrupted in mind, who concerning the faith are rejected.

alp: Mokwaia meru esi lelie hnaune nkenale kena Alla, sakesa kai akmenare Yanese kai Yambrese luasi lelie Musa loko hnaune nkenale neka. Esi noake batuke saisa rebe ktolone. Alla Isukasi mo le esi hlaleke loko saisa rebe nkenale more.


eng: But they will proceed no further. For their folly will be evident to all men, as theirs also came to be.

alp: Po tamata meru esi supu umauke tamata boka mo. Le pusue tamata esi rekwa be tamata meru boroke lupe akmenare tamata esi rekwa be Yanese kai Yambrese luaise lekwe boroke neka.


eng: in gentleness correcting those who oppose him. Perhaps God may give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,

alp: kai atetuke tamata ulu bua elakaru suke mamau leke kena petu makete Tuhane Iono lalesi kena esi hleke bei ono dosa, kai esi rekwa hnauna nkenale piseo.


eng: and they may recover themselves out of the devil’s snare, having been taken captive by him to do his will.

alp: Atetukesi mamau leke esi noake mise suike kai esi supu tie bei ro tiae esi elake esi kbasare.


eng: If we are faithless, he remains faithful; for he can’t deny himself.”

alp: Po sepo ite beteke be ite renaI mo, hoko Ibeteke be Irena ite mo lekwe. Masike ite tuli kaiNi mo, po Ituli kai ite rame, le Ilelike Eni atate mo.” Lepate meije tinai hoko lene lokole.


eng: May the Lord grant mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain,

alp: Po Onesiporuse kai eni luma toini esi ono laleku ndina rebai boka peneka masike au mei bui lalei le au lepae Sou Misete bei Alla kena Yesuse. Hoko au kotie loko Tuhane leke laleIje noasi noma. Onesiporuse iasomi le au mo masike au mei bui lalei.


eng: but when he was in Rome, he sought me diligently and found me

alp: Eleyo kena iluake mei kota Romare, inikwa loko au rame eti itetueku.


eng: (the Lord grant to him to find the Lord’s mercy in that day); and in how many things he served at Ephesus, you know very well.

alp: Au kotie loko Tuhane be, “Tuhane, kena petu rebe Ateu pakala ete pusue ami tamatare, laleMu noa Onesiporuse noma.” Kai arekwa mise titinai peneka be me kota Epsuse ilayani tamata mise titinai.


eng: Hold the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

alp: Hnaune nkenale rebe alene bei au pende, alepaele rame. Kai ahlaleke lokoI kai oki Alla kai tamata saka Kristuse Yesuse Iono aktili kena onoe.


eng: That good thing which was committed to you, guard through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.

alp: Araka Sou Misete rebe Alla Ipersaye ale kena alepaele leke tamata makete ono makete bei yake. Arakae le Alla Eni Ro Misete Ikerike kena ite lalemaru.


eng: Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,

alp: Auku nanae Timotiuse. Au okimu. Au Pauluse, au leki sulate meije. Alla Ibitike au kena Kristuse Yesuse Eni maka ulake lulu Alla Eni sukare. Au supu ulake kena lepae Alla Italuke be suke ite hlaleke loko Kristuse Yesuse leke supu rue kaiNi eti pela.


eng: to Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

alp: Timotiuse, au okimu lupe auku nanae le ahlaleke Yesuse. Au kotie bei Alla Amate kai Tuhane Kristuse Yesuse be, “Alla Amate kai amiki Tuhane Kristuse Yesuse, ono misete elake ete Timotiuse. LaleMu noai kai Aono laleije ndene noma.”


eng: Timothy, guard that which is committed to you, turning away from the empty chatter and oppositions of what is falsely called knowledge,

alp: Timotiuse, ahnouke soua bei Alla rebe Iulakemu lokole me lalemu mimise leke apletasi kenae. Alene loko alena rebe bei Alla more yeke. Alene loko tamata rebe suka lepa palani rebe esi natire sae more yake. Alene loko hnauna rebe tinai more yake. Esi beteke be, “Hnauna meru uono tamata esi rekwa”. Po esi beteke mere tinai mo.


eng: which some profess, and thus have wandered from the faith. Grace be with you. Amen.

alp: Alene lokosi yake. Le tamata leini esi beteke be esi rekwa hnauna nkenale rebe ite hlalekelu po esi suka lulu mo. Au kotie ete imi pusumi be, “Tuhane, Araka pususi.” Hlamate, Pauluse


eng: I command you before God who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus who before Pontius Pilate testified the good confession,

alp: Au pletae ale, Alla kai Kristuse Yesuse esi sasikele. Alla mere Iriluke nasite ete pusue yelu. Kristuse Yesuse rebe Inaku titinai me elake Pontiuse Pilatuse oaije. Au pletae ale be:


eng: that you keep the commandment without spot, blameless until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,

alp: Lulu loko pusue pleta meiju mimise leke tamata esi beteke aono sala sae yake. Lulu lokolu eti roma iteki Tuhane, Yesuse Kristuse Iluake suike.


eng: he is conceited, knowing nothing, but obsessed with arguments, disputes, and word battles, from which come envy, strife, insulting, evil suspicions,

alp: sie mere kwakwaesi. Esi rekwa sasaisa mo. Esi suka rare kai lomai rame. Hoko esi tiare, esi nikwa lepate kena eono rare kai lomai. Lale ndinake lomai mo, lepa tiae loko lomai, kai noake lomaije mise mo.


eng: constant friction of people of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. Withdraw yourself from such.

alp: Kai hleke bei nasuke lomaije moneka. Le esi noake tiae. Esi lulu loko sou matai nkenale moneka. Esi noake be, esi ono saisa rebe Alla Isukare batuke kena esi supu kepene boka.


eng: Some men’s sins are evident, preceding them to judgment, and some also follow later.

alp: Abitike jemate toini esi elake sosoli yake. Le tamata leini esi dosaru, tneusi mosare tamata makete esi rekwa peneka. Po tamata leini roma tneusi mina pine rekwae.


eng: In the same way also there are good works that are obvious, and those that are otherwise can’t be hidden.

alp: Sakesa kai tamata esi ono misete ete tamata makete, tamata boka esi rekwae po sie ilaru esi ono misete ndendene neka. Masike ele mere po ono misete mere ekbuni eti pela mo.


eng: having condemnation, because they have rejected their first pledge.

alp: Aleki bina balu rebe erisi belu sare esi nanaru kena daptare mere yake. Le lalesi titinai kena nikwa mokwai suike hoko esi kai suike sa. Akmenare esi naku be batuke esi kerike ete Kristuse. Po esi kerike eteI moneka, hoko esi blake be esi ono sala eteI.


eng: Also command these things, that they may be without reproach.

alp: Pletae pusu jemate toini kena hnauna meije leke esi lene lokolu. Leke tamata sae ibeteke yake be esi ono sala.


eng: But if anyone doesn’t provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

alp: Le sepo sire rebe ili loko eni kwalitauaru mo, kai lesi lekwe ruai eni luma toini pine ili lokosi mo, hoko tamata mere lupe tamata rebe hlaleke loko Yesuse more neka. Ineu lesi bei tamata rebe hlaleke loko Yesuse more.


eng: For bodily exercise has some value, but godliness has value in all things, having the promise of the life which is now and of that which is to come.

alp: Lepate matai ebeteke be, “Lati nanakwalare esi guna boka mo po sepo ite ono batuke sasaisa rebe Alla Isukaule mere guna boka lesi. Le ele mere ite supu misete kena ite rue petu meije kai rue petu susuike lekwe.”


eng: This saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance.

alp: Mere tinai hoko ite lene loko pusulu.


eng: forbidding marriage and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.

alp: Esi atetuke tamata be, “Imi kai yake. Manane leini me imi kane yake.” Eleyo Alla Iono manane meru ete ite jemate toini kena kanelu. Iono pusu manane ete ite rebe rekwa sou nkenale. Ite kane kotie loko Alla be, “Amate. Amise titinai.”


eng: For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving.

alp: Le pusue yelu rebe Alla Itolaelu meru mise. Yelu rebe ite suka more sae mo sepo ite beteke loko Alla be, “Amate. Amise titinai.”


eng: For it is sanctified through the word of God and prayer.

alp: Ite kane manane sasaisa neka le Alla ruaI Ibeteke be pusue yelu meru mise kai ite kotie trima kasi lokoIje.


eng: one who rules his own house well, having children in subjection with all reverence;

alp: Suke ili loko eni bina kai eni nanaru leke esi lene lokoi kai esi holmatei.


eng: (for how could someone who doesn’t know how to rule his own house take care of God’s assembly?)

alp: Sepo tamata irekwa bei maka li loko eni bina kai kwetelaru mise mo, hoko ete jemate toini lekwe ili lokosi tekwa more neka.


eng: The overseer therefore must be without reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, sensible, modest, hospitable, good at teaching;

alp: Jemate toini esi elake suke batuke ikai bina esa. Suke itahane lalei. Suke isupu holmate bei tamata makete. Suke laleije mise kena terima tamata iluake me eni lumare. Suke irekwa mise kena atetuke tamata makete.


eng: not a drinker, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous;

alp: Inseli yake, isuka rare kai lomai rame yake po suke intekwa kai isuka kena ono lomai mo. Kai lalei loko kepene yake.


eng: although I used to be a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

alp: Kena au hlaleke loko Yesuse mosare, au lepa tiae eteI. Au ono susate ete Eni tamataru. Au tasieNi. Masike ele mere po Alla laleIje noa au le au hlaleke lokoI mosa hoko au rekwa mo be saisa rebe au onolu mere mise mo.


eng: The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

alp: Iteki Tuhane Kristuse Yesuse Ioki au titinai kai Imise eteku rame leke au hlaleke lokoI kai au okiNi.


eng: As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain men not to teach a different doctrine,

alp: Au suka ara rue me kota Epsuse sa. Lupe au pletaemu kena au keu siba lori otoi Makedoniare, au ulake arue me kota Epsuse. Leke apletae tamata ilaru me kota Epsuse rebe esi atetuke hnaune rebe tinai more. Apletaesi leke esi hleke bei atetuke mere.


eng: and not to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than God’s stewardship, which is in faith.

alp: Pletae sie meru leke esi hleke bei maka noake loko alena rebe tinai mo. Kai bei esi noake loko esi luma mataiju bei anubu kena anubu. Pusue yelu meru batuke uonosi rare kai lomai. Esi ono Alla Isukare ekeu mise mo. Esi rekwa Isukare bei esi hlalekeNi.


eng: Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ according to the commandment of God our Savior and the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,

alp: Auku nanae, Timotiuse. Au Pauluse, au leki sulate meije. Aure Alla kai Yesuse Eni maka ulake. Alla Ihlamate ite. Kristuse Yesuse rebe ite hlalekeNi.


eng: to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

alp: Timotiuse, au leki sulate meije etemu. Alupe auku nanae le ahlaleke loko Yesuse peneka. Au kotie bei iteki Alla Amate kai iteki Tuhane Kristuse Yesuse be, “Amate, Ariluke misete ete Timotiuse. LaleMu noai kai laleije ndene noma.”


eng: Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw yourselves from every brother who walks in rebellion and not after the tradition which they received from us.

alp: Ami supu kbasa bei iteki Tuhane Yesuse Kristuse kena pletae imi. Kwali betaya imi, tamata rebe esi noso kai saisa rebe ami beteke etesi, esi ono lulu more, imi lupu kaisi yake.


eng: For you know how you ought to imitate us. For we didn’t behave ourselves rebelliously among you,

alp: Imi ruami rekwa be suke imi hidupe mise saka amire elia lupe kena ami me kai imire, ami noso mo.


eng: comfort your hearts and establish you in every good work and word.

alp: Ami kotie loko Iteki Tuhane Yesuse Kristuse kai iteki Alla Amate, rebe Ioki ite, kai Iakbere ite eti pela, kai Iono ite hlaleke loko saisa rebe misete rame, baue Yesuse Kristuse Iono mise ete itere. Ami kotie be, “Ama, Aakbere jemate toini me Tesalonika mina kai Aono batuke esi hlaleke saisa misete rame rebe Atalukele kai batuke esi lepa saisa rebe misete.”


eng: But we are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth,

alp: Po kwali betaya imi, rebe Tuhane Ioki imi, suke ami kotie trima kasi bei Alla le imi rame, le bei kena Alla Itolae nusa meije mosa, Ibitike imi rebe hlaleke loko Tuhane peneka kena supu hlamate kai rue eti pela. Le Ro Misete Ibitike tebike imi ete Alla kai bei imi hlaleke loko soua nkenala bei Allare.


eng: to which he called you through our Good News, for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

alp: Leke pusu meru uono ete imi, Alla Ikoti imi baue ami beteke Eni Sou Misete ete imire, leke imi aseluke hitate elake saka imi selu hitate elake bei iteki Tuhane Yesuse Kristuse.


eng: Test all things, and hold firmly that which is good.

alp: Imi noake mimise be lepata meru lulu Alla Eni hnaunaru pibe mo, kai lene loko rebe misete.


eng: Abstain from every form of evil.

alp: Kai neune sasaisa neka imi ono yake.


eng: Don’t quench the Spirit.

alp: Sebeie Ro Misete Ikbasae imi.


eng: Don’t despise prophecies.

alp: Mere, lepata rebe tamata esi naku be Ro Misete Iulake esi betekele, imi malisi lele yake kai beteke be mere pakuna mo yake.


eng: For God didn’t appoint us to wrath, but to the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

alp: Alla Ibitike ite kena Ihukume ite mo po Iono ite supu hlamate bei iteki Tuhane, Yesuse Kristuse.


eng: who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.

alp: Kristuse Imata ete ite leke kena Iluake suike, ite eri rue sa pise ite mata peneka, ite hidupe kaiNi.


eng: then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.

alp: Tuhane Yesuse Iluake suike elere. Kena Tuhane Yesuse ruaI rulu bei ndete surgare, Ipleta kena kbasa elake. Kena mere lekwe malekate esi elake lepa kena nai elake kai hbue Alla Eni trompete, kai tamata rebe esi hlaleke loko Kristuse rebe esi mata pende esi kwana akmena. Eleki ite rebe mata mosare, supu bitike sakesa kaisi kena moputi kena tetue iteki Tuhane ndete udara. Eleki ite rue kaiNi eti pela. Hoko Ite rebe kwana sare, sae isupu bitike akmena mo bei tamata rebe esi matare pende. Saisa rebe ami betekele meije lulu iteki Tuhane Eni lepate.


eng: that each one of you know how to control his own body in sanctification and honor,

alp: Po imi mokwaiaru suke imi ono loko imi binaru kena cara mise titinai le dosa sae mo kai kena cara holmate imi binaru leke Alla kai tamata laleisu ndina.


eng: not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who don’t know God,

alp: Imi ono lulu lale tiae loko imi binaru yake, lupe tamata rebe esi rekwa Alla more esi onore.


eng: Finally then, brothers, we beg and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, that you abound more and more.

alp: Eleki kwali betaya imi, imi atetuke bei ami peneka be imi hidupe kai lomaije elia, leke Alla laleIje ndina. Ami rekwa be imi hidupe lulu mere peneka. Po meije hnauna ilaru me rebe ami beteke mosa. Tuhane Yesuse Iriluke kbasa ete ami kena ami uma imi leke imi hidupe kai lomaije mise lesi lekwe.


eng: For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

alp: Le imi rekwa saisa rebe ami pletae imi kena onore, mere iteki Tuhane Yesuse Ibeteke ete ami.


eng: For this cause, brothers, we were comforted over you in all our distress and affliction through your faith.

alp: Hoko kwali betaya imi, masike ami supu susate kai supu kerare, po ami lalemaru ndina le ami lene Timotiuse ibeteke sou bei imire. Le imi hlaleke ktilire eono ami lalemaru ela.


eng: For now we live, if you stand fast in the Lord.

alp: Sou mere eono ami blake ktili suike, mahabe imi hlaleke loko Tuhane rame.


eng: that no one would be moved by these afflictions. For you know that we are appointed to this task.

alp: Timotiuse itapa imi leke kena imi supu susate imi hlaleke loko Alla sa. Imi rekwa be Alla Isukare ami supu susate le ami hlaleke lokoI.


eng: For most certainly, when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we are to suffer affliction, even as it happened, and you know.

alp: Kena ami sakesa kai imire, ami beteke rame ete imi peneka be tatike pine ite supu susate bei tamata makete. Kai imi rekwa be susata meru ite supulu peneka.


eng: For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Isn’t it even you, before our Lord Jesus at his coming?

alp: Laleku kena selu imi le imi pine ami hlalekemi kai imi ono ami lalema ndina. Le tatike pine Tuhane Yesuse Iluake, kai kena ite luake lokoIje, imi pine ono ami lalema ndina kai lalema ela.


eng: For you are our glory and our joy.

alp: Titinai, ami lalema ela kai lalema ndina titinai le imi.


eng: But we, brothers, being bereaved of you for a short season in presence, not in heart, tried even harder to see your face with great desire,

alp: Kwali betaya imi, ami keu bei imi takwali mo po ami nete loko imi rame. Ami nete loko imi titinai peneka kai ami lalema titinai kena luake selu imi suike.


eng: because we wanted to come to you—indeed, I, Paul, once and again—but Satan hindered us.

alp: Ami lalema kena luake loko imi suike peneka. Au Pauluse, au atula rebai ilaru peneka po ro tiaru esi elake eono ami supu keu loko imi mo, epele lalane bei ami.


eng: who killed both the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and drove us out, and don’t please God, and are contrary to all men,

alp: Tamata Yahudia meru rebe akmena esi bunu nabiaru, eleki pamuli meije esi bunu iteki Tuhane Yesuse kai meije esi ono susate ete ami. Alla Ionosi titinai. Esi rare kai pusue tamata.


eng: forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved, to fill up their sins always. But wrath has come on them to the uttermost.

alp: Esi lake ami leke ami lepae Sou Misete rebe eono tamata esi supu hlamate ete tamata makete rebe tamata Yahudi more yake. Esi lake ami ele mere esi tapa esi dosaru rame lesi bei batase rebe Alla Itahane laleI etesi peneka. Hoko pamuli meije mahake Alla Ihukumesi.


eng: As you know, we exhorted, comforted, and implored every one of you, as a father does his own children,

alp: Imi rekwa be ami tapa imi pusumi lupe amate itapa eni nanaru.


eng: to the end that you should walk worthily of God, who calls you into his own Kingdom and glory.

alp: Ami ahnau imi, ami aktili imi lalemi kai ami beteke ktili ete imi be suke imi hidupe lulu Alla Eni pleta rebe Eni tamataru suke esi onore leke Alla laleIje ndina. Le kena Alla Ipleta ite tamatare, Ikoti imi kena rue kaiNi kai selu Eni hitate elake.


eng: For you yourselves know, brothers, our visit to you wasn’t in vain,

alp: Kwali betaya imi, imi ruami rekwa be ami luake loko imire kai rue kai imire leke ami lepae Sou Misete ete imire supu hasile.


eng: but having suffered before and been shamefully treated, as you know, at Philippi, we grew bold in our God to tell you the Good News of God in much conflict.

alp: Imi rekwa be kena ami luake loko imi me kota Tesalonika mosare, ami lepae Sou Misete bei Allare mpai kota Pilipi. Mpai kota Pilipire ami supu teta kai esi lepa tiae ete ami. Tamata bokala esi lake ami lepae Sou Misete. Masike ele mere po me kota Tesalonikare iteki Allare Iono ami rilama mo kena lepae Sou Misete bei Alla ete imi.


eng: For from you the word of the Lord has been declared, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God has gone out, so that we need not to say anything.

alp: Pusue tamata me otoi Makedonia kai Akaya esi selu kai lene be imi atate elia kai imi beteke elia kena Sou Misete bei Alla kena Yesuse peneka. Kai batuke tamata me otoi Makedonia kai Akaya mo po tamata rebe esi rue me pusue otoi maketaru lekwe esi lene imi hlaleke loko Allare mise. Hoko mahake ami keu kena lepae moneka.


eng: 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,

alp: Le pusue tamata meru esi alenake imi li loko ami mise kuate elia kena akmena ami luake loko imire. Kai esi alenake loko imi hleke bei hlaleke loko tuhane tinai more eleki imi hlaleke loko Alla rebe Inkenare kai Ikwana kena imi luluI.


eng: We always give thanks to God for all of you, mentioning you in our prayers,

alp: Ami kotie trima kasi rame loko Alla le imi pusumi hlaleke lokoI rame. Kai kena ami kotie loko Allare ami sulapi imi nane rame.


eng: remembering without ceasing your work of faith and labor of love and perseverance of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father.

alp: Ami kotie trima kasi rame loko Alla le kena ami kotie loko Alla Amate ami nete imi kerike rame loko imi makerike elia le imi hlaleke loko Alla. Kai ami nete imi kerike mise leke tapa tamatare elia le imi okisi. Kai ami nete imi tahane lale masike tamata esi ono susate eti esi teta imi le imi hlaleke titinai be iteki Tuhane Yesuse Kristuse Iluake kena hlamate imi.


eng: If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God.

alp: Kwali betaya, pamuli meije molupe Alla Iono imi kwana suike bei matale sakesa kai Kristuse peneka, hoko imi supu hidupe beluke peneka, hoko suke imi lalemi loko saisa rebe Alla Iaknekae ete imi ndete surga, ndete otoi rebe Kristuse Ipleta sakesa kai Allare.


eng: Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth.

alp: Imi noake loko yelu rebe undete surgare neka, noake loko yelu rebe umei nusare yake.


eng: For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

alp: Le kena Kristuse Imatare, saka imi mata sakesa kaiNi peneka, kai imi supu hidupe beluke le imi esa kai Kristuse rebe Irue kai Allare. Imi hidupe beluke mere tamata sae iselu mosa.


eng: “Don’t handle, nor taste, nor touch”

alp: Kena Kristuse Imatare, imi lekwe molupe imi mata sakesa kaiNi peneka, kai imi supu tie bei nusa meije esi aturane peneka. Hoko hnauna rebe ubeteke be, “Kerike meije yake, kane meije yake, nanakwalami kena meije yake,” pusue meru imi lulu yanoma.


eng: You were dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh. He made you alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,

alp: Akmenare, imire saka tamata matale neka le imi ono dosa rame, kai imi supu sunate mosa. Po pamuli meije Alla Iono imi, saka imi kwana suike sakesa kai Kristuse Ikwana suike. Kai Alla Iampune iteki dosaru pusulu peneka.


eng: wiping out the handwriting in ordinances which was against us. He has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross.

alp: Kai iteki dosa kena hukume rebe Musa ilekire, rebe lekie kena sulate daftare rebe etutuke ite ktilire, Alla Ituli kai moneka. Ituli kai more baue Kristuse Eni matale kena ai tutine.


eng: who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the Kingdom of the Son of his love,

alp: Itie ite bei ro tiare esi kbasare peneka, kai Ikeri ite loko Eni Nanae rebe IokiNe Eni otoi maka pletare.


eng: in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins.

alp: Eni Nanae mere pine Iseli iteki dosaru peneka, hoko iteki dosaru supu ampune peneka.


eng: to the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

alp: Kwali betaya, imi jemate toini me Kolose rebe imi hlaleke titinai kai imi esa kai Kristuse rame! Sulate meije bei au Pauluse, rebe Alla Ibitike au kena Kristuse Yeusue Eni maka ulake lulu Eni sukare, kai iteki kwali Timotiuse. Ami hlaleke be Iteki Alla Amate Iriluke misete ete imi kai Iono imi rue mise.


eng: I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

alp: Kwali betaya meije tinai neka, au noake mo be auku sifate kai hidupe mise peneka, po au ono ele meije rame neka. Saka tamata maka bala ibala ktili kai inete loko saisa rebe pamulire moneka, po ibala ktili rame loko saisa rebe lalei lokole neka leke isupu hadia. Au lekwe ele mere neka, au ktili rame leke au supu saisa rebe laleku lokole leke auku hidupe lulu Yesuse Eni hidupe titinai. Ele mere hoko tatike pine Tuhane Ikoti au kai au rue kaiNi ndete surga eti pela, mere bei saisa rebe Kristuse Yesuse Ionore, mere Eni matale.


eng: Beware of the dogs; beware of the evil workers; beware of the false circumcision.

alp: Imi keta bei kuru neunaru. Esi ono saka asu nketete rebe esuka sui tamatare. Esi suka paksa tamata kena sunate rebe tinai mo. Esi ono tiae ete imi hoko esi ombe suke imi supu sunate kena tanda be imire Alla Eni tamata.


eng: For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh;

alp: Eleyo itea meiju pine Alla Itrima ite tinai peneka kena Eni tamata, po siere mo. Alla Eni Ro pine Itapa ite kena ite tatu loko Alla, kai ite isikeNi le ite hidupe esa kai Kristuse Yesuse peneka. Ite hlaleke tamata esi atate kena supu hlamate bei iteki dosaru moneka.


eng: Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy, and hold such people in honor,

alp: Hoko au kotie bei imi leke kena imi tetue Epafrodituse, imi trimai kena lale ndinate saka tamata sae kai eni ebe rebe luasi hlaleke sakesa loko Tuhane. Pusue tamata rebe lupe Epafrodituse suke holmatesi.


eng: because for the work of Christ he came near to death, risking his life to supply that which was lacking in your service toward me.

alp: Holmatei le mahake imata peneka le Ikerike Tuhane Eni makerike. Ikerike tapa au kena seli imia me kota Pilipire, rilai le matale mo masike esi susate elake.


eng: holding up the word of life, that I may have something to boast in the day of Christ that I didn’t run in vain nor labor in vain.

alp: Sepo imi ono misete ele mere, hoko mere imi aseluke be imire Alla Eni nanae rebe nsalale sae mo, rebe imi atate mise kai imi nkena kena imi rue kai tamata rebe esi ono neune rame. Imi tiluke lalane misete bei imi hidupe nkenale saka hitate ndete lanite ehita nusare, le imi lepae Alla Eni lapata rebe uono tamata ihidupe leke esi rekwae. Sepo imi hidupe ele mere, namake kena Yesuse Kristuse Iluake suike, au supu alasane kena leleku ndina le imi. Mere easeluke be auku makerike supu hasile mise titinai.


eng: doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself;

alp: Kena imi ono saisare noake imi ruami yake, pise kwakwae imi lele yake. Po suke imi ruami blake mpe lebu kai selu tamata makete ilesi bei imi.


eng: each of you not just looking to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others.

alp: Kai selu loko saisa rebe tamata maketa esi perlure saka imi selu loko saisa rebe imi perlure neka.


eng: Some indeed preach Christ even out of envy and strife, and some also out of good will.

alp: Tinai, sie leini beisi esi lepae loko Kristuse kena lale tiae kai esi suka rare kai lomai leke lene loko au yake, eleyo sie leini me esi lepae loko Kristuse le lalesi mise ete au.


eng: The former insincerely preach Christ from selfish ambition, thinking that they add affliction to my chains;

alp: Sie rebe esi lepae Sou Misete kena Yesuse kena lale miseta meru esi ono ele mere le esi oki Alla kai oki au, le esi rekwa be Alla Ibitike au peneka kena au aseluke be Sou Misete bei Alla kena Yesuse mere tinai.


eng: but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Good News.

alp: Eleyo sie rebe lale tiaru, esi lepae Sou Misete bei Alla kena Yesuse batuke kena nikwa nane neka. Esi ono ele mere le esi noake be au susa lesi mei bui lalei.


eng: so that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense to the day of Christ,

alp: Ele mere hoko imi rekwa bei saisa rebe emise titinaije, leke kena petu rebe Kristuse Iluake suike imi nsalale sae mo kai imi supu tutuke le nsalale sasaisa mo.


eng: being filled with the fruits of righteousness which are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

alp: Kai Yesuse Krituse Iono imi hidupe batuke ono yelu rebe umise titinai. Eleki tamata maketa esi selu saisa rebe imi onoule hoko esi holmate Alla kai esi isikeNi.


eng: But that you also may know my affairs, how I am doing, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will make known to you all things.

alp: Iteki kwali Tikikuse rebe ite okini titinai, tamata makerike rebe ikerike titinai ete Tuhane, namake ibeteke pusue rebe ukena aure ete imi leke imi rekwa au kai auku makerike.


eng: I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know our state and that he may comfort your hearts.

alp: Bei mere hoko au ulakeni loko imi, leke ibeteke saisa rebe ekena amire leke lalemi ndina.


eng: For no man ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord also does the assembly,

alp: Tamata rebe ili loko nanakwalaije more sae mosa. Piasare tamata iraka nanakwalaije mise saka Kristuse Iraka Eni jemate toine.


eng: because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones.

alp: Iono ele mere, le ite meiju saka Kristuse nanakwalaIje.


eng: Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord.

alp: Binare holmate eni mokwai saka ite holmate Tuhane.


eng: For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body.

alp: Le mokwaije iono elake ete eni bina, saka Kristuse lekwe Iono elake ete jemate toine. Kai ruaI hlamatesi kai esi ono saka nanakwala eteI.


eng: He gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, shepherds and teachers;

alp: Ile mere pine Iriluke misete ete tamata leke esi supu ktiline. Iono leini kena Yesuse Kristuse Eni maka ulake, leini kena nabi, leini kena esi lepae Sou Misete bei Alla kena Yesuse ete tamata rebe esi lenele mosare, leini kena jemate toini esi elake kai maka atetuke.


eng: for the perfecting of the saints, to the work of serving, to the building up of the body of Christ,

alp: Iono mere leke Alla Eni tamataru esi kerike tekwa Alla Eni makerike, kai leke esi akbere lomai kena hlaleke ktili lokoI.


eng: But to each one of us, the grace was given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

alp: Po Kristuse Iriluke Alla Eni misete ete papelake ite, lulu rebe Iteue kena Irilukele.


eng: Therefore he says, “When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts to people.”

alp: Ele mere hoko me Alla Eni lepate rebe lekie akmenare ebeteke be: “Kena Isa lolete otoi nanuke, Ikeri musua rebe Inabusi pende, kai Iriluke misete ete Eni tamataru.”


eng: Now this, “He ascended”, what is it but that he also first descended into the lower parts of the earth?

alp: Ete meije ebeteke be, “Isa” hoko kena Isa mosare Irulu roma otoi rebe empe lebu laleke, otoi mere nusa meije.


eng: He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.

alp: Ile rebe Irulu mere, Ile lekwe pine Isa nanu titinai lesi bei lanite leke Ikbasa ndete surga kai mei nusa. Otoi rebe nanu titinai mere surgare.


eng: may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and height and depth,

alp: Au kotie leke imi kai pusue Alla Eni tamataru imi rekwa be Kristuse Ioki tamata titinaije neka kai Ioki tamata rame.


eng: and to know Christ’s love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

alp: Ioki itere ela lesi bei tamata inoakele. Masike ele mere po au kotie bei imi leke imi rekwa Yesuse Kristuse Eni misete mere, leke namake Alla ruaI Eni sifate rebe mise titinai mere me laleime etapa rame.


eng: being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone;

alp: Imi lekwe saka lumare esi manara sae. Yesuse Eni maka ulakaru kai nabiaru esi ono luma mere esi dasare peneka, mere esi lepae Alla Eni lepataru ete imi, kai batu inai rebe epentine titinai leke eono luma mere ekurure mere Kristuse Yesuse.


eng: in whom the whole building, fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord;

alp: Le ite esa kai Kristuse Yesuse, hoko ite pusuma saka luma sae rebe elekele mise titinai kai ektili kai etapa ela rame kena luma misete ete Tuhane.


eng: in whom you also are built together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.

alp: Kai bei ite esa kai Kristuse Yesuse, imi lekwe saka luma rebe elekele kena Alla Irue rame kenae, mere baue Eni Ro Misete.


eng: having abolished in his flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace,

alp: le Kristuse Iriluke nanakwalaIje kena Imatare eono agama Yahudi esi hukume esi pletaru hleke pusulu peneka. Leke tamata Yahudi kai Yahudi more esi esa kaiNi kai esi hidupe ebelu. Kristuse Iono tamata esi mise kai lomaije ele mere.


eng: and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, having killed the hostility through it.

alp: Bei Kristuse Imata kena ai tutine, tamata toini lua meru esi ono mise kai lomai. Kai bei Kristuse Imata kena ai tutine lekwe, Iono esi lupu kena esa kai esi ono mise kai Alla.


eng: Therefore remember that once you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called “uncircumcision” by that which is called “circumcision” (in the flesh, made by hands),

alp: Kwali betaya imi rebe tamata Yahudi mo! Imi nete loko imi hidupe kena akmenare, tamata Yahudia rebe esi supu sunate pende, esi lepae imire, “Tamata rebe sunate mo.” Po esi sunate mere batuke tamata ionoe.


eng: that you were at that time separate from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

alp: Kena mere imi rekwa Kristuse mosa, imire tamata makete bei Alla Eni tamataru. Kai saisa rebe Alla Italuke kai Iteu pende, imi hake kena supure sae mo. Imi rue mei nusare saisa rebe imi hlalekele kena ehlamate imire sae mo kai imi rekwa Alla mo.


eng: for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,

alp: Alla laleIje mise ete imi, hoko Iono imi hlamate le imi hlaleke loko Yesuse. Imi supu hlamate mere bei imi atula lokole mo, po mere misete rebe Alla Irilukele,


eng: not of works, that no one would boast.

alp: kai mere hasile bei imi makerike mo. Hoko sae kwakwaeni be isupu hlamate bei ruai yake.


eng: But God, being rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,

alp: Po Alla laleIje mise titinai! Ioki ite titinai,


eng: even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—

alp: eti kena ite ono saka tamata matale sa le ite ono dosa, po saka Iono ite kwana suike sakesa kai Kristuse. Hoko batuke bei Alla Eni misete pine Iono imi hlamate.


eng: For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you and the love which you have toward all the saints,

alp: Kwali betaya, bei mere hoko kena au lene be imi hlaleke loko Tuhane Yesuse, kai imi oki pusue Alla Eni tamataru,


eng: don’t cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,

alp: hoko au kotie trima kasi bei Alla le imi rame. Kena au kotie bei Allare, au sulapi imi nane rame.


eng: We were also assigned an inheritance in him, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who does all things after the counsel of his will,

alp: Alla Iono pusue meru lulu ruaI Eni suka. Ibitike ite peneka bei akmena sa lulu Eni sukare leke ite ono Eni tamata le ite kai Yesuse Kristuse esa.


eng: to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Christ.

alp: Leke ami rebe meije hlaleke Yesuse Kristuse akmenare, namake ite isike kai holmate Alla le misete rebe Ionore.


eng: making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him

alp: Kai saisa rebe namake Ionoe baue Yesuse Kristuse, ruaI suka betekele ete ite. Akmenare tamata esi rekwa Eni rencana mere mosa.


eng: to an administration of the fullness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth, in him.

alp: Eni rencanare be, roma esi petu pine Iono pusue ndete surga kai mei nusare eono esa eleki Kristuse Iono elake ete pusulu.


eng: For this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and answers to the Jerusalem that exists now, for she is in bondage with her children.

alp: Alena meije atetuke ite be bina lua meiju tiluke lalana lua kena supu nkenale bei Alla. Hagare natire tamata rebe esi hlaleke be nkenare baue lulu hukume rebe Musa ilekire. Le pusue tamata rebe esi lulu hukume rebe Musa ilekire esi hidupe saka tamata makerike rebe eni kbasa sae mo rebe ilulu tamata rebe ikerike eteije. Hagare esi natire ulate Sinai me tape Arape. Kai Hagare nati lekwe kota Yerusaleme pamuli meije. Le esi tamataru esi hidupe lupe tamata makerike rebe eni kabasa sae mo le esi hidupe lulu hukume rebe Musa Ilekire.


eng: But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, confined for the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

alp: Kena ite hlaleke loko Kristuse mosare, hukume rebe Musa ilekire eono ite saka ekandutie ite kena bui lalei.


eng: So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

alp: Hoko hukume rebe Musa ilekire saka tamata maka raka rebe iraka ite roma Kristuse Iluake, leke ite ono mise suike kai Alla le ite hlaleke loko Kristuse.


eng: But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

alp: Pamuli meije petua kena ite hlaleke loko Kristuse peneka, hoko hukume rebe Musa ilekire, rebe eraka ite roma meije eraka ite moneka.


eng: For I through the law died to the law, that I might live to God.

alp: Kena akmena au lulu hukume rebe Musa ilekire, eono au supu ono mise suike kai Alla mo. Ele mere hoko au hleke hukume mere peneka le mere saka au mata bei hukume mere peneka. Auku hidupe meije batuke au kerike ete Alla neka. Pamuli meije aure saka au mata ndete ai tutini saka Kristuse peneka,


eng: I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself up for me.

alp: hoko au noake loko saisa rebe akmenare moneka, po au noake batuke Yesuse Kristuse neka. Auku hidupe beluke pamuli meije bei au hlaleke titinai loko Alla Eni Nanare. Ile mere pine Iaseluke be Ioki au eti Imata ete au.


eng: For before some people came from James, he ate with the Gentiles. But when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.

alp: Memenaije irue kane sakesa kai tamata Yahudi more, po kena tamata rebe Yakobuse iulakesie esi luake, ikeu beisi kai isuka kena kane kaisi moneka. Rilai le tamata Yahudia rebe esi bei Yerusaleme le esi sukare pusue tamatare suke lulu atate sunate.


eng: And the rest of the Jews joined him in his hypocrisy, so that even Barnabas was carried away with their hypocrisy.

alp: Tamata Yahudi maketaru esi nloe lulu Petruse lekwe, eti Barnabase iono lulu esi nloene mere leneka.


eng: But not even Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised.

alp: Tituse rebe isakesa kai aure tamata Yunani, po paksai kena ilulu sunate esi atate mo.


eng: This was because of the false brothers secretly brought in, who stole in to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage,

alp: Tamata leini me esi uma tamata maka hlaleke loko Kristuse kena lulu sunate esi atate. Sie meru esi ono lelemake be esi hlaleke loko Kristuse, rebe esi kusu andeneke loko ite leke esi selu saisa rebe ite onore kai esi lake ite beie le ite esa kai Kristuse Yesuse peneka. Esi suka uma ite kena lulu agama Yahudi esi pletare.


eng: Then after a period of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me.

alp: Eleki musuna butu esa lesini ata suike pine au leu suike lopai Yerusaleme sakesa kai Barnabase. Ami lui Tituse ikeu kai ami lekwe.


eng: I went up by revelation, and I laid before them the Good News which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately before those who were respected, for fear that I might be running, or had run, in vain.

alp: Au keu lopai Yerusaleme le Alla Iulake au. Kai kena au kai elaka ete meru ami ruama lupu, au lepa loko Sou Misete rebe au lepaele ete tamata Yahudi more. Au suka mo be saisa rebe au onoe ete tamata Yahudi more, tamata Yahudia leini esi suka mo eleki auku makerike esi guna sasaisa mo.


eng: But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the Good News which was preached by me, that it is not according to man.

alp: Kwali betaya imi! Suke imi rekwa be Sou Misete rebe au lepaele, mere bei tamata mo.


eng: For I didn’t receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.

alp: Au supu Sou Misete mere bei tamata mo, kai tamata sae iatetukele ete au mo. Po Yesuse Kristuse ruaI pine Ibeteke pusue meru ete au.


eng: Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,

alp: Kwali betaya imi jemate toini me otoi Galatia. Au Pauluse, au leki sulate meije ete imi. Au kai pusue tamata rebe esi hlaleke loko Tuhane ete meije, ami kotie leke Tuhane, iteki Alla Amate kai Tuhane Yesuse Kristuse Iriluke misete ete imi kai Iono imi rue mise. Au ono Tuhane Eni maka ulake, bei tamata ibitike au mo, po Yesuse Kristuse kai iteki Alla Amate rebe Iono Ikwana suike bei matale pine Ibitike au.


eng: how he was caught up into Paradise and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

alp: Au beteke suike lekwe be au rekware, tamata mere isupu bitike lelete surga. Au rekwa mo be nanakwalaije lekwe esupu bitike tinai pise batuke selue kena nindale pise, mere batuke Alla ruaI rekwae. Ete ndetere, tamata mere ilene lepata rebe tamata ilepa tekwalu mo kai mere lekwe tamata esi lepaule saisa mo.


eng: for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds,

alp: Amire tamata piasa po kena ami broka kai tamata rebe esi suka ami more, ami pake ktiline bei Alla. Amiki sifate lupe tamata rebe rekwa Alla mosare mo kai ami pake tamata eni carare mo. Amire saka solalua rebe esi atie otoi rebe ktilinaru.


eng: for I know your readiness, of which I boast on your behalf to those of Macedonia, that Achaia has been prepared for the past year. Your zeal has stirred up very many of them.

alp: Kwali betaya, au rekwa imi lalemi mise hoko imi riluke kepene rebe tatike pine natue ete tamata rebe esi hlaleke loko Kristuse mpai otoi Yudeare, hoko mere au lekie ete imi moneka. Au rekwa imi lale misete hoko au isike imi ete tamata Makedoniaru. Au beteke etesi be, “Musune rebe lia beluke meije, iteki kwali betaya ndi otoi Akayare, esi suka kena lupuke kepene leke esi rilukele.” Bei mere eti tamata bokala ndi otoi Makedoniare esi lulu imi hoko esi suka kena lupuke kepene lekwe.


eng: but for equality. Your abundance at this present time supplies their lack, that their abundance also may become a supply for your lack, that there may be equality.

alp: Au beteke ele mere, au paksa imi mo kena riluke kepene ete tamata makete eleki imi susa. Po au selu meije imi supu lesi hoko imi tapa sie rebe esi sasaisa more kena saisa rebe imi rilukele. Namake kena imi sasaisa mo, esi lesi hoko esi tapa imi. Imi riluke ete lomai leke imi taneia sakesa.


eng: to the one a stench from death to death, to the other a sweet aroma from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things?

alp: Kena ami lepae Kristuse, amire saka tamata rebe iphala kemenyane boini ntelete ete Alla. Tamata leini rebe esi lene loko Kristuse Eni hnaunaru more, esi supu susate eleki namake esi supu poie kena auwe klitine: esi beteke amire sakesa kai matale boini mpulute rebe tamata esi keu beije. Po tamata leini rebe esi lene loko Eni hnaunaru esi keue lalane rebe kerisi kena supu hlamate: esi beteke amire saka leite boini ntelete kena hidupe hoko esi trima ami lepare. Hoko sire pine iktili kena kerike makerike meije? Sae mo!


eng: This punishment which was inflicted by the many is sufficient for such a one;

alp: Kwali betaya, au lepa suike loko tamata rebe iono dosa rebe au beteke ete imi kena auku sulate ete imire. Au rekwa be tamata bokala bei imi esi beteke eni nsalalaru etei eleki imi hukumeni. Imi hukumeni roma mere neka. Saisa rebe tamata mere ionore eono lalekue susa po imi lekwe susa lesi leneka. Pise iono imia leini susa. Au beteke ele mere le au suka be auku lepate kbere kuate lokoi mo.


eng: In this confidence, I was determined to come first to you, that you might have a second benefit,

alp: Au persaye be namake lalemi ndina le ami, hoko akmenare au taluke peneka be namake au luake kena selu imi. Au noake be namake au luake selu imi peneka eleki au keu loko otoi makete pine au leu suike loko imi leke imi supu tapa rebai lua bei au.


eng: and by you to pass into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and to be sent forward by you on my journey to Judea.

alp: Laleku kena au sili lokomi kena au keu lopai otoi Makedoniare. Au leu bei mpai otoi Makedoniare, au suka sili loko imi suike, leke imi tapa au kena au siba lopai otoi Yudeare.


eng: as also you acknowledged us in part—that we are your boasting, even as you also are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus.

alp: Imi selu amiki sulate ete imire. Pusue rebe ami lekilu ete imire, ami leki batuke saisa rebe imi baisele, imi natire. Tinai, meije imi nati pusue amiki atate mosa, po au hlaleke be namake imi nati amiki atate mimise sa. Auku lalekue ele mere leke kena Tuhane Yesuse Iluake suike kena Iteu pakala ete nusa meije, imi lalemi ndina le ami, molupe kena mere ami lalemaru ndina le imire neka.


eng: But when this perishable body will have become imperishable, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”

alp: Kena nanakwala rebe tatike pine emata kai atiare seli kena nanakwala rebe emata more peneka, kena mere saisa rebe lekie me Alla Eni lepata rebe lekire be: “Matale sae moneka, ite lesi peneka kai rue eti pela.


eng: “Death, where is your sting? Hades, where is your victory?”

alp: Namake Alla Itie ite bei pusue yelu rebe uono ite matare, matale ekbasae ite moneka,” eonore mere peneka.


eng: The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.

alp: Saka kalajengkine esi sasune kena esi aluije ekeri matale, ele mere lekwe dosare ekeri ite kena matale. Le agamare esi aturane riluke kbasa ete dosare le bei aturane mere, ite rekwa nkenale kai nsalale.


eng: For since death came by man, the resurrection of the dead also came by man.

alp: Le tamata mei nusare esi mata le akmenare ile sae me ilene loko Tuhane mo. Ele mere lekwe, tamata rebe esi mata pende Alla Iono esi kwana suike le ile sae makete eni misete.


eng: For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.

alp: Le pusue tamatare, Adame eni anubu, hoko sakesa kai Adame ilene loko Tuhane Eni hnaune more, namake ite pusuma lului eleki ite mata pusuma. Ele mere lekwe pusue tamata rebe esa kai Yesuse Kristuse pende, Tuhane Ionosi kwana suike.


eng: Therefore other languages are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to the unbelieving; but prophesying is for a sign, not to the unbelieving, but to those who believe.

alp: Hoko bei Alla Eni lepate mere ite rekwa be kbasa rebe ite supue kena lepa kena soua bei Ro Misete rebe tamata esi nati more, mere tanda ete tamata rebe esi hlaleke more leke esi selu Tuhane Eni kbasare. Mere ete tamata rebe esi hlaleke loko Tuhane pende mo. Kai kbasa rebe ite supue kena lepae Tuhane Eni lepataru leke tamata esi natire, pake mere ete tamata rebe esi hlaleke loko Tuhane pende leke esi hlaleke tapa ktili. Mere ete tamata rebe hlaleke more mo.


eng: If therefore the whole assembly is assembled together and all speak with other languages, and unlearned or unbelieving people come in, won’t they say that you are crazy?

alp: Ele mere hoko umpama kena jemate toini imi lupuke lomai eleki imi pusumi lepa kena soua bei Ro Misete rebe tamata esi nati more, eleki tamata rebe esi rekwa Tuhane Eni lalane mise mosare pise tamata rebe esi hlaleke loko Tuhane mosare, esi kusu me imi otoi maka ibadare kai esi lene imi lepare hoko namake esi beteke be, “E! Tamata ete meiju esi make pususi peneka.”


eng: But if all prophesy, and someone unbelieving or unlearned comes in, he is reproved by all, and he is judged by all.

alp: Po sepo imi pusumi lepae Alla Eni lepataru kena erisi souaru, hoko esi tehaike imi, namake pusue rebe imi betekele etiluke esi dosaru, namake esi nete loko esi dosaru hoko esi blake sala eleki naku esi dosaru.


eng: For he who speaks in another language speaks not to men, but to God, for no one understands, but in the Spirit he speaks mysteries.

alp: Imi atula titinai leke supu kbasa kena lepae Tuhane Eni lepataru le tamata rebe isupu kbasa kena ilepa kena soua bei Ro Misete rebe tamata esi nati more, ilepa kai tamata mo po batuke ilepa kai Alla. Sae inati ilepare mo le Alla Eni Rore Ikbasaeni kena ilepae yelu rebe tamata esi natiule mo batuke Alla ruaI Inatilu.


eng: But he who prophesies speaks to men for their edification, exhortation, and consolation.

alp: Po tamata rebe ilepae Alla Eni lepate rebe Ibeteke eteije leke tamata esi natire, eni lepataru esi guna kena ono tamata esi hlaleke ktili, eono lalesi ndina kai eono esi hlaleke tapa ktili rame.


eng: But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body, just as he desired.

alp: Ite selu Alla Itolae pusue meru kena nanakwalare. Pusue meru Alla Itolaele kena esi otoi tetebike lulu Eni sukare.


eng: If they were all one member, where would the body be?

alp: Sepo nanakwalare batuke bei otoi esa hoko mere nanakwala mo.


eng: Nevertheless, neither is the woman independent of the man, nor the man independent of the woman, in the Lord.

alp: Po ite rebe esa kai Tuhane pende, bina pise mokwai, ite tapa lomai.


eng: For as woman came from man, so a man also comes through a woman; but all things are from God.

alp: Le masike Tuhane Iono bina memenaije bei mokwai po suike bei mere binaru esi biti mokwai. Kai pusue meru bei Alla.


eng: To the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain Jews; to those who are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain those who are under the law;

alp: Au me kai tamata Yahudiaru, au ono saka tamata Yahudi leke au onosi hlaleke loko Kristuse. Le auku hidupe lulu tamata rebe esi lulu hukume rebe Musa ilekire esi hidupe, saka au lulusi. Tinaije au lupe sie rebe esi lulu agamare esi hnaunaru mo. Po au ono ele mere leke au onosi lulu Kristuse.


eng: to those who are without law, as without law (not being without law toward God, but under law toward Christ), that I might win those who are without law.

alp: Kena au me kai tamata Yahudi more, au ono saka tamata Yahudi mo, rebe esi lulu hukume rebe Musa ilekire mo. Au ono ele mere leke au onosi lulu Yesuse Kristuse. Po pusue meru elake au bei maka lulu Tuhane eni lepataru mo. Au ono ele mere, au lulu Yesuse Kristuse Eni hnaunaru.


eng: But I say this, brothers: the time is short. From now on, both those who have wives may be as though they had none;

alp: Kwali betaya, suke imi rekwa be, lau moneka nusare atiare reneka hoko kena petu lesina meiju sie rebe esi kai pende suke esi kerike loko yelu makete pentine lesi bei saisa rebe suke esi kerikele ete esi luma takare.


eng: and those who weep, as though they didn’t weep; and those who rejoice, as though they didn’t rejoice; and those who buy, as though they didn’t possess;

alp: Kai sie rebe esi ranire esi susa kuate yake eti esi nete loko Tuhane mo yake, sie rebe esi malire lalesi ndina kuate yake eti esi nete loko Tuhane Eni makerike mo yake. Sie rebe esi sabe sasaisa pende esi nete loko esi taneia meru kuate yake eti esi nete loko Tuhane Eni makerike mo yake, le taneia meru urue eti pela mo.


eng: and those who use the world, as not using it to the fullest. For the mode of this world passes away.

alp: Kai saisa rebe tamata esi noakele yake, esi makerike kai pusue yelu mei nusa meije esi hlalekeule yake. Le takwali moneka nusa meije kai yelu rebe ite selure, namake sae moneka.


eng: Don’t you know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? May it never be!

alp: Kwali betaya, imi rekwa peneka be iteki nanakwalamaru, Kristuse Eni nanakwalaI lekwe. Le grejare, Kristuse nanakwalaI. Hoko ite pake nanakwalamaru kena ntulu kai bina lalane yelo? Masike elia lekwe po ono ele mere yake.


eng: Or don’t you know that he who is joined to a prostitute is one body? For, “The two”, he says, “will become one flesh.”

alp: Suke imi rekwa be sire intulu kai bina lalane ile mere iesa kai bina mere lekwe. Le kena Alla Eni lepate rebe lekire ebeteke be: “Luaise esa peneka.”


eng: According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another builds on it. But let each man be careful how he builds on it.

alp: Alla Iono au rekwa meije, aure lupe tamata ikerike luma, au tolae pandasi kai tamata makete ieleke luma kena pandasi mere. Papela tamatare suke iselu mimise be eleke luma kena pandasi mere emise.


eng: For no one can lay any other foundation than that which has been laid, which is Jesus Christ.

alp: Le Alla ruaI Itolae Yesuse Kristuse lupe pandasi kena luma mere po tamata makete mo.


eng: Who then is Apollos, and who is Paul, but servants through whom you believed, and each as the Lord gave to him?

alp: Tinaije, Apolose mere sire? Kai au Pauluse meije sire? Amire batuke Alla Eni tamata makerike, rebe tapa imi kena imi hlaleke loko Kristuse. Batuke ami lulu amiki makerike rebe Alla Iulake ami kerikele.


eng: I planted. Apollos watered. But God gave the increase.

alp: Kena Alla Eni makerike, au lepae Yesuse Kristuse Eni lepataru saka tamata maka andinu, iatnane kena eni ndinure. Apolose iatetuke imi saka tamata rebe irana kwele kena isoba ndinu mere. Po Alla ruaI pine Ikbasae lalemi saka Iono tnanela kena ndinure kusure.


eng: So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.

alp: Hoko rebe atnane pise sobare mere pentine mo, po rebe pentine Alla rebe Iono tnanele kusure.


eng: Now he who plants and he who waters are the same, but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.

alp: Tamata rebe iatnane bibite kai rebe isobare sae ilesi bei sae mo. Alla Iriluke hadia etesi lulu sae erini makerike.


eng: I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius,

alp: Au kotie trima kasi bei Alla le au baptise sae bei imi mo batuke au baptise Krispuse kai Gayuse luasi neka.


eng: so that no one should say that I had baptized you into my own name.

alp: Yapine sae ibeteke be au baptiseni leke ilulu au.


eng: And honour and glory be to him, that is mighty to confirm you by my gospel, and (the) preaching of Jesus Christ, by the revelation of (the) mystery held still, in times everlasting; [Forsooth to him, that is mighty to confirm you by my gospel, and (the) preaching of Jesus Christ, after the revelation of (the) mystery holden still, that is, not showed, in times everlasting;]

alp: Kwali betaya, ite isike Alla rebe Ikbasa kena ono imi hlaleke ktili le imi lulu Sou Misete bei Alla kena Yesuse Kristuse rebe au betekele ete pusue tamatare. Sou Misete mere ebeteke saisa rebe Alla laleI kena Ionore. Bei akmena titinai sa, sae irekwa mosa,


eng: (But nowe is opened, and published among all nations by the Scriptures of the Prophetes, at the commandement of the euerlasting God for the obedience of faith)

alp: po pamuli meije Ibeteke peneka. Alla rebe Eni kbasa eti pelare Iono eti nabiaru esi beteke Sou Misete meije me esi bukuaru, eleki pamuli meije Iulake ami kena lepae etika-etika neka, leke pusue tamata mei nusare esi rekwae leke esi supu lalane kena hlaleke loko Alla kai lene lokoI.


eng: God is really great and powerful, so everybody has to tell him that he is good. He can make you strong. This is his message. It is the good news about Jesus Christ. A long time ago, God planned to get both the Jewish people, and the people that are not Jews, to believe in him. But at first he kept it a secret, and he just got the Jewish people to follow him. After that, he got his men to write about it ahead of time, and their words are in his book. Now his message about Jesus is for every nation. It is not just for the Jewish people, but everybody everywhere can trust him, and they can listen to him and do what he wants. God is the only one that can think good enough to make it all work out like that. So everybody has to tell God and Jesus Christ, “You are great.” They have always got to do that for ever. From Paul

alp: HolmateI rame. Ile, Alla. Ile rebe rekwa titinai. Mai ite isikeNi eti pela baue saisa rebe Yesuse Kristuse Ionore! Amine. Amiki hlamate ete imi. Pauluse


eng: Gaius, my host and host of the whole assembly, greets you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, greets you, as does Quartus, the brother.

alp: Gayuse lekwe ibeteke holmate ete imi. Au Pauluse, au rue mei eni lumare kai iteki ebea rebe esi hlaleke loko Tuhane, ami ono ibada mei eni lumare lekwe. Erastuse, kotare esi maka raka kepene ibeteke holmate ete imi lekwe. Kai iteki kwali Kwartuse ibeteke holmate lekwe.


eng: The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all! Amen.

alp: [Ami kotie namake Iteki Tuhane Yesuse Kristuse Iriluke misete ete imi pusumi ete mere. Amine.]


eng: For I will not dare to speak of any things except those which Christ worked through me for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed,

alp: Batuke Au nehe kena lepa loko saisa rebe Kristuse Iono peneka, kena Ipake auku lepataru kai auku makerike eti eono tamata Yahudi more esi lene loko Alla.


eng: in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of God’s Spirit; so that from Jerusalem and around as far as to Illyricum, I have fully preached the Good News of Christ;

alp: Bei Alla Eni Rore Eni kbasare hoko au ono tanda herane rebe easeluke Tuhane Eni kbasare. Sou Misete bei Kristuse au betekele ete tamata mpai kota Yerusaleme peneka eti roma tamata ndi otoi Ilirikume. Auku makerike ete mere pela peneka.


eng: I myself am also persuaded about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish others.

alp: Kwali betaya, au rekwa imi ono saisa rebe misete rame. Imi rekwa saisa rebe Alla Isukare hoko imi atetuke lomai.


eng: But I write the more boldly to you in part as reminding you, because of the grace that was given to me by God,

alp: Masike ele mere po kena sulate meije, au nehe kena beteke oani esa lua leke au ono imi nete suike. Au beteke meru le bei Alla Eni misete hoko Iriluke makerike meije ete au.


eng: Now the God of perseverance and of encouragement grant you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus,

alp: Alla Iono ite lalemaru ktili leke ite tahane lale kai iteki maka hlaleke etapa ktili. Ami kotie beiNi leke Itapa imi leke imi rekwa bei hidupe esa kai lomai lulu Kristuse Yesuse Eni sukare,


eng: that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

alp: leke lalemi esa kena isike Alla, Tuhane Yesuse Kristuse AmaIje.


eng: for God’s Kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

alp: Le sepo Alla Ikbasa saka kamale kena iteki hidupe hoko Isukare ite ono nkenale. Kai leke ite ono misete kai lomai kai ite lalemaru ndina le Alla Eni Rore Ikbasae itere. Kai saisa rebe kanele kai kinure epentine mo.


eng: For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.

alp: Tamata rebe ikerike ete Kristuse iono ele mere, hoko iono Alla laleIje ndina kai tamata makete esi holmatei.


eng: Yet if because of food your brother is grieved, you walk no longer in love. Don’t destroy with your food him for whom Christ died.

alp: Sepo imi kane manane oani sae pine kwalimi pise betami rebe imi hlaleke sakesare esi selu, eleki eono lalesi kera, le esi noake be kane manane mere dosa, hoko lalemi noasi mo. Le Yesuse Kristuse Imata etesi peneka hoko imi kanele me oasi yake le namake ekerisi loko lalane tiae.


eng: Then don’t let your good be slandered,

alp: Ele mere hoko sepo saisa rebe imi onore sala mo po eono imi kwali betaya rebe imi maka hlaleke sakesare, esi hlaleke kokouesi hoko mise lesire imi ono mere yake. Leke tamata esi leuke sala ete imi le saisa rebe imi onoe mere yake.


eng: Do this, knowing the time, that it is already time for you to awaken out of sleep, for salvation is now nearer to us than when we first believed.

alp: Ite ono pusue meiju le ite rekwa saisa rebe emise kena onoe kena petua meiju. Ite ntulu rame yake le petu kena Tuhane Yesuse Iluake kena Isake ite bei nusa neune meije lau moneka. Bei akmena ite hlaleke loko Tuhane menaije eti roma petu meije takwali peneka hoko petu kena Tuhane Yesuse Iluake lau moneka.


eng: The night is far gone, and the day is near. Let’s therefore throw off the deeds of darkness, and let’s put on the armor of light.

alp: Kpeture pusure reneka kai pitare luake reneka. Bei mere hoko ite ono yelu neuna rebe piasa ite onolu kena melene yake, po ono yelu misete rebe piasare ono kena pitare. Yelu miseta meru saka alata kena lisa rebe pakele kena pitare.


eng: or, ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.)”

alp: Po lepata me lekwe rebe akmena Musa ilekire be, sepo ite hlaleke loko Alla hoko ite nkena me oaIje. Lepata meru elere: “Anoake be namake sire isa lolete surgare me lalemu yanoma. Pise sire irulu lope tamata matalaru esi nusare yanoma.” Lepata meru esi natire elere: ite perlu sa lolete surga kena nikwa hlamate moneka, le Kristuse Irulu mei nusa meije loko ite peneka. Ite lekwe ite rulu lope tamata matalaru esi nusare kena nikwa saisa rebe misete moneka le Krituse ikwana suike bei matale peneka leke ite supu misete baueNi.”


eng: For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls,

alp: Kena kwetela lua meru ruelesi mosa, kai esi ono sasaisa mosa kena ite selu be emise pise more, po kena mere Alla Ibitike andia bei luasi rebe Iriluke misete eteije peneka.


eng: it was said to her, “The elder will serve the younger.”

alp: Alla Ibeteke ete Ribka peneka be, “Kwete menare namake itatu loko kwete mulire.”


eng: For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,

alp: Au hlaleke be masike ite mata, pise kena ite hidupe masike malekate pise sie rebe esi kbasa kena meije, pise petu pamuliaru lekwe,


eng: nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from God’s love which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

alp: yelu rebe ukbasa ndete lanite pise yelu mei nusa, pise saisa makete lekwe, pusulu lake rua Alla Ioki itere mo, lupe Iaselukele baue iteki Tuhane, Kristuse Yesuse pende.


eng: because the mind of the flesh is hostile toward God, for it is not subject to God’s law, neither indeed can it be.

alp: Sepo tamata eni sifate ekbasae sae eni maka noake hoko iono musu kai Alla. Le tamata mere ilene loko Alla Eni hukume mo. Isuka kena lulu hukume mere po saisa moneka.


eng: Those who are in the flesh can’t please God.

alp: Sie rebe esi lulu tamata eni sifate esi ono saisa rebe Alla Isukare, saisa mo.


eng: For 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.

alp: Umpamare, bina rebe ikai pende, lulu hukume, bina mere hukume maka kaije ekbasaeni kena eni mokwai eri rue sa. Po sepo eni mokwai imata peneka hoko hukume maka kaije ekbasaeni moneka.


eng: So 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.

alp: Sepo bina mere irue kai mokwai makete kena eni mokwai eri rue sa, hoko bina mere isablia. Po sepo eni mokwai mata peneka, hoko lulu hukume bina mere hukume kbasaeni moneka. Kai sepo ikai kai mokwai makete hoko bina mere isablia mo.


eng: Therefore don’t let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.

alp: Ele mere hoko imi sebeie dosare kbasae imi hidupe mei nusa meije yake leke imi lulu imi lale neune yake.


eng: Also, do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.

alp: Kai imi pake nanakwalami kena ono tiae yake leke imi supu dosa yeke. Po imi riluke nanakwalami ete Alla le imi supu hetie bei matale kena kwanale peneka. Imi riluke pusue nanakwalami ete Alla leke imi ono saisa rebe Isukare.


eng: For sin will not have dominion over you, for you are not under law, but under grace.

alp: Le ete itere, dosare kbasae ite moneka. Ite rekwa be hukume rebe Musa ilekire ekbasae ite moneka. Hoko meije ite hlaleke kai supu misete bei Alla peneka.


eng: May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?

alp: Ele mere mo! Le dosare ekbasae ite moneka, hoko ite ono dosa moneka.


eng: Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

alp: Imi nete! Kena baptise ite leke ite esa kai Kristuse Yesuse, mere saka Ite mata sakesa kaiNe neka.


eng: We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.

alp: Hoko kena baptise itere, mere saka hnouke ite sakesa kai Kristuse kai ite mata sakesa kaiNi, leke kena Ikwana suike le AmaI Eni kbasa rebe ehitare, ite sakesa kaiNi eleki ite kusu hidupe beluke.


eng: For until the law, sin was in the world; but sin is not charged when there is no law.

alp: Akmena kena hukume rebe Musa ilekire sae mosare, tamata iono dosa peneka. Po tutuke tamata le dosare mosa le aturane sae mosa.


eng: Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those whose sins weren’t like Adam’s disobedience, who is a foreshadowing of him who was to come.

alp: Masike ele mere po bei kena Adame eti roma Musare, matale etapa rame eleki pusue tamatare namake mata. Masike tamata esi ono lulu Adame ilene loko Alla Eni pletare mo po esi mata le esi dosaru. Hoko Adame saka Yesuse Kristuse, rebe Iluake pamulire: Saisa rebe Adame ionore pusue tamata esi supu esi hasile. Ele mere lekwe, saisa rebe Yesuse Ionore pusue tamata esi supu esi hasile.


eng: Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;

alp: Kwali betaya, pamuli meije ite ono nkena me Alla oaI peneka le ite hlaleke loko Yesuse. Ele mere hoko ite ono mise suike kai Allare baue iteki Tuhane Yesuse Kristuse.


eng: through whom we also have our access by faith into this grace in which we stand. We rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

alp: Le pamuli meije ite supu lalane kena Alla Iaseluke Eni misete ete ite, mere bei saisa rebe Yesuse Ionore le ite hlaleke lokoIje. Ite lalemaru ndina lekwe le ite hlaleke be roma petu sae me ite selu Alla Eni kbasare kai Eni hitate elake.


eng: For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void, and the promise is made of no effect.

alp: Le sepo tamata Yahudiaru esi supu saisa rebe Alla Italukele le esi lulu saisa rebe Musa Ilekire hoko esi hlaleke loko Allare esi untune sae mo, kai saisa rebe Alla Italukele esi supu moneka.


eng: For the law produces wrath; for where there is no law, neither is there disobedience.

alp: Bei tamata esi lulu hukume rebe Musa ilekire mo, hoko esi supu hukumane elake bei Alla. Po sepo Alla Iriluke Eni hukume ete ite mo hoko ite ono sala kena hukume mere mo.


eng: But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the law and the prophets;

alp: Po meije Alla Itiluke lalane ete ite leke ite nkena me oaIje. Po lalane kena ono nkenale mere baue ite lulu hukume rebe Musa ilekire mo. Kena hukume mere kai bukua rebe akmena nabiaru esi lekire ebeteke lalane kena ono nkenale mere peneka.


eng: even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,

alp: Alla Eni lalane mere elere: Alla Iono tamata inkena po mahabe ihlaleke loko Yesuse Kristuse. Saisa rebe Alla Iono ete tamatare pusue nesa, Ihbeike sae mo.


eng: Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God.

alp: Ite rekwa be lepate meije lekie me Alla Eni lepata rebe lekire ebeteke ete tamata Yahudi rebe esi supu aturane meije. Hoko pusue tamata, tamata Yahudi pise Yahudi mo esi sasaisa mo kena beteke me Alla oaI be esi nkena. Alla Iteu peneka be pususe tamatare, penu kena dosa.


eng: Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

alp: Tamata sae inkena baue iono saisa rebe me agamare esi hukume mo. Esi tinaije, aturane rebe Alla Iriluke ete tamatare, mere leke ite rekwa iteki dosaru titinai.


eng: but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.

alp: Le tamata rebe kotine tamata Yahudi tinaije, mere Alla Eni tamata titinai. Ile mere tamata rebe sunate nanakwalaije mo, po rebe Ro Misete Ikbasae laleije pine selue kena eni hidupe. Kai tamata Yahudi titinaije, mere tamata rebe ihleke eni hidupe tiare. Tamata ele mere masike isupu isike bei tamata more po Alla Iisikeni.


eng: oppression, and anguish on every soul of man who does evil, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

alp: Pusue tamata rebe esi ono tiare rame, namake esi supu susate eti esi muruke tamata makete. Rebe supu hukumane akmenare tamata Yahudiaru pine tamata Yahudi more esi supu hukumane lekwe.


eng: But glory, honor, and peace go to every man who does good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

alp: Po pusue tamata rebe esi ono misete, esi supu isike kai supu holmate bei Alla kai esi ono misete kaiNi. Rebe supu mere, tamata Yahudi kai tamata Yahudi more.


eng: For there is no partiality with God.

alp: Le Alla Iono sasaisa ete tamatare sakesa neka.


eng: concerning his Son, who was born of the offspring of David according to the flesh,

alp: Sou Misete mere ebeteke Alla Eni Nanare, iteki Tuhane Yesuse Kristuse. Lulu tamata hoko Irulu bei Dauta.


eng: who was declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,

alp: Po lulu Tuhane hoko Ile, Alla Eni Nanae. Mere selu kena Ikwana suike. Mere be Ile Alla Eni Nanae rebe Ikbasa, iteki Tuhane Yesuse Kristuse.
