John 21
1 After that, Jesus showed himself to [us] disciples when we were at Tiberias Lake, [which is another name for Galilee Lake]. This is what happened:
A MURIN mepukat Iesus pil kasale ong tounpadak kan pein i pon le en Tiperias; a iet duen a kasaledar:
2 Simon Peter, Thomas who was called {whom [we] called} The Twin, Nathaniel from Cana [town] in Galilee, my older brother and I, and two other disciples were together.
Simon Petrus o Tomas, me adaneki Didimos, o Natanael men Kana nan Kaliläa, o nain Sepedäus ol oko, o pil sapwilim a tounpadak riamen me pokon pena,
3 Simon Peter said to us, “[I] am going to [try to] catch some fish.” We said, “We will go with you.” So we went down [to the lake] and got into the boat. But that night we caught nothing.
Simon Petrus indai ong irail: I pan kola laid. Irail indai ong i: Se pil pan iang uk. Irail ari koieila, kereda pon kisin sop pot. A ni pong o re sota saikidi meakot.
4 Early the next morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but we did not know that it was Jesus.
A lao wasa ranier, Iesus ap kotikot ni oror, a sapwilim a tounpadak kan sasa, me i Iesus.
5 He called out to us, “My friends, you have not [caught] any fish, have you?” We answered, “You are correct, [we have not caught any].”
Iesus ap kotin masani ong irail: Seri ko, sota kan omail? Re sapeng i: Sota.
6 He said to us, “Throw your net out from the right-hand side of the boat! Then you will find some!” We did that, and we caught so many fish [in the net] that we were unable to pull the net into [the boat]!
A kotin masani ong irail: Kaduedi uk o pali maun en sop o, a komail pan diarada. Irail ap kaduedi; re ap solar kak apiada pweki mam toto.
7 [But I knew that it was Jesus], [so] I said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” Peter had taken off his cloak [while he was working], but as soon as he heard [me say] “It is the Lord!” he wrapped his cloak around himself and jumped into the water [and swam to shore].
Tounpadak o, me Iesus kotin kupura mauki, ap indai ong Petrus: Iei Kaun o. Simon Petrus loa rongadar, me i Kaun o, ap pira ong a sakit en liki pwe a kiliso, ap lusedi ong nan le o.
8 The rest of us came [to the shore] in the boat, pulling the net full of fish. We were not far from shore, only about 100 yards/meters.
A tounpadak tei kan seisei kodo nan kisin sop, pwe re so doo sang sap o, ele tipong en pa riepuki, urakido uk o mam oko.
9 When [we] got to the shore, we saw that there was a fire of burning coals there, with a [large] fish on the fire, and [some] buns.
Irail leler sap, rap diaradar kisiniai o mam oko mi poa o prot.
10 Jesus said to us, “Bring some of the fish that you have just caught!”
Iesus ap kotin masani ong irail: Wado kisan saik omail!
11 Simon Peter got in [the boat] and dragged the net to the shore. It was full of large fish. There were 153 of them! But in spite of there being so many fish, the net was not torn.
Simon Petrus ap koda waikelong dong nan sap uk o, me dir en mam kalaimun epuki limek silimen; mam me toto, ari so, uk sota olar.
12 Jesus said to us, “Come and eat some breakfast!” None of us dared to ask him, “Who are you?” because we knew that it was the Lord.
Iesus kotin masani ong irail: U kodo manga! A sota amen ren tounpadak kan kak idok re a: Is komui? Pwe re asaer, me i Kaun o.
13 Jesus took the buns and gave them to us. He did the same with the fish.
Iesus ap kotido limada prot, nek ong irail o pil mam oko.
14 That was the third time that Jesus appeared to [us] disciples after [God] caused him to become alive again after he died.
A i me kasilepak en Iesus a kotin kasale ong sapwilim a tounpadak kan pein i, murin a iasada sang a matalar.
15 When we had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “John’s [son] Simon, do you love me more than these [other disciples do]?” Peter said to him, “Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me (OR, that I love you).” Jesus said, “Give to [those who belong to] me [what they need spiritually, like] [MET] [a shepherd provides] food for his lambs.”
Irail lao mangaer. Iesus ap kotin masani ong Simon Petrus: Simon, nain Iona, koe kin pok ong ia mon mepukat? A i potoan ong i: Ei Maing, ir me mangi, me i kin pok ong ir. A kotin masani ong i: Apwali nai sippul akan!
16 Jesus said to him again, “John’s [son] Simon, do you love me?” He replied, “Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me (OR, that I love you).” Jesus said to him, “Take care of [those who belong to] me, [like] [MET] a [shepherd takes care of his] sheep.”
A pil masani ong i kariapak: Simon, nain Iona, koe kin pok ong ia? A sapeng i: Ei Maing, ir me kotin mangi, me i kin pok ong ir. A kotin masani ong i: Apwali nai sip akan!
17 Jesus said to him a third time, “John’s son Simon, am I really dear to you (OR, do you really love me)?” Peter was grieved because Jesus asked him this three times, [and because the third time he changed the question]. He said, “Lord, you know everything. You know that you are dear to me (OR, that I love you).” Jesus said, “Give to [those who belong to] me [what they need spiritually, as] [MET] [a shepherd provides] food for [his] sheep.
A kotin masani ong i kasilepak: Simon, nain Iona, koe kin pok ong ia? Petrus ap mamauki a peidok pan silepak: Koe pok ong ia? A potoan ong i: Maing, ir me kotin mangi meakaros, re kotin mangi, me i kin pok ong ir. Iesus kotin masani ong i: Apwali nai sip akan!
18 Now listen to this carefully: When you were young, you put your clothes on by yourself, and you went wherever you wanted to go. But when you are old, you will stretch out your arms, and someone will fasten them [with a rope] and will lead you to a place where you do not want to [go].”
Melel, melel I indai ong uk, ni om manakap koe pein pirai uk pena, ap alu wei wasa, me koe mauki. A koe lao likailapala, koe nek kida wei pa om akan, a amen pan pirai uk edi o kalualang wasa, me koe kang kola ia.
19 Jesus said this to indicate how Peter would die ([violently/on a cross]) in order to honor God. Then Jesus said to him, “Keep being my faithful disciple [until you die].”
I me a kotin kokop kidar, duen a pan kapingaki Kot a matala. A lao kotin masanier met, ap masani ong i: Idauen ia!
20 Peter turned around and saw that I was following them. I was the one who leaned close to Jesus during the [Passover] meal and said, “Lord, who is going to enable your enemies to seize you?”
Petrus ap soupewei, kilang tounpadak o idauen ira, me Iesus kotin kupura mauki o me pil mi pan kupur a ni kamadip o kalelapok: Maing, is i, me pan pang komui la?
21 When Peter saw me, he asked, “Lord, what [is going to happen] to him?”
Petrus lao kilanger i, ap indai ong Iesus: Maing, menda men et?
22 Jesus said to him, “If I want him to remain [alive] until I return, (that is not your concern!/what is that to you?) [RHQ] You be my [faithful] disciple!”
Iesus kotin masani ong i: Ma I mauki, a en mimieta I lao puredo, menda re om? Koe en idauen ia!
23 Some of the other believers heard [a report of] what Jesus had said about me, and [they thought that Jesus meant] that I would not die. But Jesus did not say that I would not die. He said only, “If I want him to remain [alive] until I return, (that is not your concern!/what is that to you?) [RHQ]”
Kasoi pot et ap loloki sili nan pung en saulang kan, me dene tounpadak o sota pan mela. A Iesus sota kotin masanier, me a sota pan mela, a: Ma I mauki, a en mimieta I lao puredo, menda re om?
24 [I, John], am the disciple who has seen all these things and I have written them down. My [fellow apostles] and I know that what [I have written] is true.
Iet tounpadak, me kadele mepukat o intingiedier mepukat; a se asa, me a kadede me melel.
25 Jesus did many other things. If they would [all] be written {If people would write them [all]} down [in detail], I suppose that the whole world would not have enough space [HYP] to contain the books that would be written {that they would write} [about what he did].
A song toto, me Iesus kotin wiadar a ma irail karos pan intingidi, i lamelame, me sappa sota itar ong koledi puk kan, me pan intingidi.
