Romans 7
1 Or are ye ignorant, brothers (for I speak to men who know the law), that the law has dominion over the man for as long a time as he lives?
A OLE anei i ike oukou, e na hoahanau, (no ka mea, ke olelo aku nei au i ka poe i ike i ke kanawai, ) e kau ana ke kanawai maluna o ke kanaka i kona wa a pau e ola nei?
2 For the woman under authority to the living husband has been bound by law, but if the husband should die, she has been released from the law of the husband.
No ka mea, o ka wahine mea kane, ua paa ia i kana kane ma ke kanawai, i kona wa a pau e ola ana kana kane; a make ke kane, ua kuuia oia mai ke kanawai aku o kana kane.
3 So then, of the living husband, she will be called an adulteress if she becomes to another man, but if the husband should die, she is free from the law, for her not to be an adulteress having become to another man.
No ia hoi, e kapaia oia he wahine moe kolohe ke mare ia i ke kane hou i ka wa e ola ana kana kane; aka, ina i make ke kane, ua kuuia oia mai ke kanawai aku; aole ia he wahine moe kolohe ke mare ia i ke kane e.
4 Therefore, my brothers, ye also became dead to the law through the body of Christ in order for ye to become to another, to him who was raised from the dead, so that we would bear fruit to God.
Pela hoi oukou, e na hoahanau o'u, ua make oukou i ke kanawai, ma ke kino o Kristo, i mareia'i oukou i ka mea i hoala hou ia mai waena mai o ka poe make, i hoohua kakou i ka hua no ke Akua.
5 For when we were in the flesh, the passions of the sins were working in our body-parts (through the law) in order to bear fruit to death.
No ka mea, i ka wa i noho ai kakou ma ke kino, o ko kakou mau kuko hewa no ke kanawai, ua hooikaika maloko o ko kakou mau lala e hoohua mai i ka hua no ka make.
6 But now we have been released from the law, having died to what we were held, so as for us to serve in newness of spirit, and not in oldness of a document.
Ano hoi ua kuuia kakou mai ke kanawai, ka mea i paa pio ai kakou, no ka mea, ua make kakou ia mea; i hookauwa hoi kakou me ka hou ana o ka uhane, aole ma ka mea kahiko o ke kanawai.
7 What will we say then? The law is sin? May it not happen! Yet I did not know sin except through law. For likewise I would not have known lust, if the law did not say, Thou shall not covet.
Heaha hoi ka kakou e olelo nei? He hewa anei ke kanawai? Aole loa; aka, ma ke kanawai wale no i ike ai au i ka hewa; no ka mea, ina aole i papa mai ke kanawai, Mai kuko wale aku oe, ina aole au i ike i ke kuko ana.
8 But sin, having taken opportunity through the commandment, wrought in me every evil desire, for apart from law sin is dead.
Aka, ma ke kauoha i loaa'i i ka hewa ka wa maopopo, hoala ae la ia i kela kuko wale i keia kuko wale iloko o'u. No ka mea, me ke kanawai ole, ua make ka hewa.
9 And I was alive once apart from law, but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
No ia hoi, ola no au mamua me ke kanawai ole, a hiki mai ke kauoha, ala ae la ka hewa, a make iho la au.
10 And I found to me, the commandment being for life, this is for death.
Oia, o ke kauoha e ola'i, ua loaa ia'u he mea ia e make ai.
11 For sin, having taken opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me.
No ka mea, loaa ae la i ka hewa ka wa maopopo ma ke kauoha, ua puni au ia ia a ua make au ia ia ma ia mea.
12 So the law is indeed holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.
Nolaila, ua hemolele ke kanawai, a ua hemolele hoi, ua pono, ua maikai ke kauoha.
13 Has therefore what is good become death to me? May it not happen! Instead, it is sin, so that it might be revealed, sin working death in me through what is good, so that through the commandment sin might become sinful to extreme.
Ua lilo anei ka mea maikai i make no'u? Aole loa ia; aka, o ka hewa, i ikeia hoi ia ho hewa io, e hana ana i ka make iloko o'u ma ka mea maikai, i akaka ae la ma ke kauoha he mea lawehala loa ka hewa.
14 For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, having been sold under sin.
No ka mea, ua ike no au ma ko ka uhane ke kanawai; aka, ma ko ke kino wau, ua kuaiia na ka hewa.
15 For I do not understand what I do, for I do not do this that I want, but what I hate, this I do.
No ka mea, o ka mea a'u i hana'i, aole au e hoapono; no ka mea, aole ka mea a'u i makemake ai ka'u i hana'i, aka, hana no wau i ka mea a'u i hoowahawaha ai.
16 But if I do this that I do not want, I agree with the law that it is good.
Ina hoi e hana wau i ka mea a'u i makemake ole ai, ua ae aku au i ke kanawai, he pono.
17 But now I no longer perform it, but the sin dwelling in me.
Ano hoi aole na'u ia i hana, aka, na ka hewa e noho ana iloko o'u.
18 For I know that good does not dwell in me, that is, in my flesh, for to will is present in me, but to do the good, I find not.
No ka mea, ua ike au, aole e noho ana iloko o'u, oia hoi iloko o ko'u kino, kekahi mea maikai; no ka mea, o ka makemake eia no ia'u ia, aka, o ka hana i ka pono aole i loaa ia'u.
19 For I do not do good that I want, instead, wrong that I do not want, this I do.
No ka mea, aole au i hana i ka pono a'u i makemake ai; aka o ka hewa a'u i hoowahawaha ai, oia ka'u i hana'i.
20 But if I do this that I do not want, I no longer perform it, but sin dwelling in me.
A ina i hana au i ka mea a'u i makemake ole ai, aole na'u ia i hana, aka, na ka hewa no e noho ana iloko o'u.
21 Consequently I find the law in my wanting to do good, that evil is present in me.
Ua loaa hoi ia'u he kanawai no'u, i ko'u wa e makemake ai e hana pono, ua kokoke mai no ka hewa.
22 For I delight in the law of God according to the inner man,
No ka mea, ua oluolu no wau i ke kanawai o ke Akua, ma ke kanaka oloko;
23 but I see a different law in my body-parts, warring against the law of my mind, and taking me captive in the law of sin, which is in my body-parts.
Aka, ua ike au i kekahi kanawai iloko o ko'u mau lala e hakaka ana me ke kanawai o ko'u manao, a e hoolilo ana ia'u i pio no ke kanawai o ka hewa iloko o ko'u mau lala.
24 I am a wretched man. Who will rescue me out of the body of this death?
Auwe hoi au ke kanaka poino! nawai au e hoopakele ae i ke kino nona keia make.
25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then, I of myself in the mind indeed serve a law of God, but in the flesh a law of sin.
Ke aloha aku nei au i ke Akua ma o Iesu Kristo la o ko kakou Haku. No ia hoi, owau nei la, ua malama wau i ke kanawai o ke Akua, aka ma ko'u kino i ke kanawai o ka hewa.
