1 Thessalonians 2
1 For you yourselves know, brothers, our visit to you wasn’t in vain,
PWE pein komail aja, ri ai kan, duen at pwaralan komail kaidin me jo kadepa.
2 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.
A murin at kamekam nan Pilipi o at kalokolok waja o, duen me komail aja, kit aimaki atail Kot padaki on komail ronamau en Kot ni apwal laud.
3 For our exhortation is not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in deception.
Pwe at panapanaui komail jota wiaui ni kotaue, de jamin, de widin.
4 But even as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News, so we speak—not as pleasing men, but God, who tests our hearts.
Pwe duen kit ale jan ren Kot en padaki ronamau, iduen at padak kin wiaui, kaidin pwen konekonlar ren aramaj akan, a Kot me kotin kajauiada monion it.
5 For neither were we at any time found using words of flattery, as you know, nor a cloak of covetousness (God is witness),
Jota eu anjau me je linkapina komail, duen me komail aja, de norok kapwa, Kot me jaun kadede en mepukat.
6 nor seeking glory from men (neither from you nor from others), when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Christ.
Je pil jota rapaki konekon ren aramaj akan, ma re omail de ren akai. A je pan kak katoutoui komail, pwe kit wanporon en Krijtiij akan.
7 But we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother cherishes her own children.
Ari jo, kit kin materok nan pun omail dueta li en kamait amen, me kin apwali na jeri kan.
8 Even so, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you not the Good News of God only, but also our own souls, because you had become very dear to us.
Iduen at non kin komail melel, je mauki katunole kin komail ronamau en Kot, a kaidin i eta, a pein maur at, pwe komail wialar kompoke pat.
9 For you remember, brothers, our labor and travail; for working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, we preached to you the Good News of God.
Ri ai kan, komail kin tamanda duen at dodok o at apwal akan. Pwe je dodok ni ran o ni pon, pwen der katoutoui amen komail, o je padaki on komail ronamau en Kot.
10 You are witnesses with God how holy, righteously, and blamelessly we behaved ourselves toward you who believe.
Komail o Kot at jaunkadede duen at makelekel, o pun, o inen re omail me pojon akan.
11 As you know, we exhorted, comforted, and implored every one of you, as a father does his own children,
O duen komail aja, me kit panaui o kamekamait amen amen re omail dueta papa men wia on na jeri kan.
12 to the end that you should walk worthily of God, who calls you into his own Kingdom and glory.
O je padaki on komail er, me komail en alu inen wei ta, duen me kon on Kot, me kotin molipe komail on pein a wei o pein a linan
13 For this cause we also thank God without ceasing that when you received from us the word of the message of God, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, God’s word, which also works in you who believe.
I me je kin poden danke Kot, pwe ni omail aleer majan en Kot, komail aleer kaidin dueta padak en aramaj akan, pwe duweta majan en Kot melel, me pil kin dodok nan lol omail me pojon akan.
14 For you, brothers, became imitators of the assemblies of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus; for you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, even as they did from the Jews
Pwe ri ai kan, komail ale janer momodijo en Kot akan nan Iudaa reh Krijtuj Iejuj; pwe komail kamekame reh toun omail wei, dueta irail me kamekame ren Juj akan.
15 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,
me pil kamatalar Kaun Iejuj, o jaukop akan, me re kaloke, o re jota konekon ren Kot, o re kin palian aramaj akan karoj.
16 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.
O re kainapwi jan kit, ender padak on men liki kan, pwe ren der maurela, pwe re kin kadirela dip arail anjau karoj, a onion mi po’rail.
17 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,
A kit ri ai kan ni at doo wei jan komail anjau kij ni pali war at, a kaidin ni monion it, je ap nantion o inon ion melel kilan maj omail.
18 because we wanted to come to you—indeed, I, Paul, once and again—but Satan hindered us.
I me je men pwar won komail, nai Pauluj pan mepak o pan riapak, a Jatan karompa kit.
19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Isn’t it even you, before our Lord Jesus at his coming?
Pwe ij me kapore pat, de kaperen pat, de kapina pat? Kaidin komail mon Kaun patail Iejuj ni a kotido
20 For you are our glory and our joy.
Pwe komail kalina pat o kaperen pat.
