1 Timothy 1
1 This letter comes from Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus appointed by the authority of God our Savior and Christ Jesus, who is our hope.
NA Paulo ka lunaolelo a Iesu Kristo, ma ke kauoha ana mai o ke Akua, ko kakou Ola, a o ka Haku o Iesu Kristo, ko kakou mauaolana;
2 I'm sending it to you Timothy. You are my true son because of your trust in God. May you have grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Ia Timoteo i ko keiki ponoi ma ka manaoio; ke aloha, ke ahonui, a me ka maluhia, mai ke Akua mai o ko kakou Makua, a me Iesu Kristo ko kakou Haku.
3 When I was on my way to Macedonia I asked you to stay behind in Ephesus, so that you could speak with those who teach false ideas and insist that they stop.
Me a'u i nonoi aku ai ia oe e noho oe ma Epeso, i kuu hele ana ku i Makedonia, i kauoha oe i kekahi poe, i ao ole aku lakou i ka olelo e,
4 They shouldn't concern themselves with legends and never-ending obsessions about ancestry. Such ideas only lead to pointless debates, instead of understanding God as we trust in him.
Aole hoi e malama i na olelo hakuwaleia, a me na kuauhau hope ole, ona mea i hoomahuahua'e i ka hoopaapaa ana, aole i ka pono o ke Akua, ma ka manao oiaio.
5 The reason why I insist on this is so we may have love that comes from a pure heart, from a clear conscience and sincere trust in God.
O ka hope o ke kauoha, o ke aloha ia, mai loko mai o ka naau maemae, a me ka manao maikai, a me ka paulele oiaio.
6 Some have deviated from these things, and have ended up talking nonsense.
Aka, na kapae kekahi poe mai ia mea aku, a ua huli ae hoi ma ka hoopaapaa lapuwale;
7 They have ambitions to be teachers of the law, but they have no idea what they're talking about or what they're so boldly announcing!
E makemake ana e lilo i mau kumu ao kanawai; aole hoi i ike pono i ka lakou mea i olelo ai, aole noi i ka lakou mea i hooiaio ai.
8 Now we recognize that the law is good if people use it properly.
Aka, ua ike kakou i ke kanawai, he mea maikai ia, ke malama pono ia oia e ke kanaka;
9 We also know that law isn't laid down for those who do what is good and right, but for those who are rebellious and ignore the law. It applies to people who have no use for God, who are sinful, who treat nothing as holy and are completely irreligious. It's for those who kill fathers and mothers, for murderers,
Me ka ike hoi, aole i kauia ke kanawai no ke kanaka hoopono, aka, no ka poe pono ole, ka poe hoolohe ole, ka poe aia, ka poe hewa, ka poe haihaia, ka poe hoino, ka poe pepehi makuakane, ka poe pepehi makuwahine, ka poe pepehi kanaka,
10 for those who are sexually immoral, homosexuals, kidnappers, liars, false witnesses—and anything else that's opposed to good teachings
Ka poe hookamakama, ka poe moe aikane, ka poe aihue kanaka, ka poe hoopunipuni, ka poe hoohiki wahahee, a me na mea e ae i ku e mai i ka pono oiaio,
11 as determined by the wonderful good news of our blessed God which he entrusted to me.
Mamuli o ka euanelio nani, a ke Akua pomaikai, i kauohaia mai ai ia'u.
12 I'm just so grateful to Christ Jesus our Lord for the strength he's given me, and that he considered me trustworthy, appointing me to work for him.
He aloha ko'u ia Kristo Iesu i ko kakou Haku i ka mea i hooikaika mai ia'u, no ka mea, ua manao mai oia e ku paa ana au, a ua hoolilo mai ia'u no keia oihana;
13 Even though I used to insult God, and persecuted and abused God's people, God showed me mercy because of my ignorance and unbelief.
I ka mea hoino wale mamua, me ka hoomaau, a me ka hooluhi hewa aku; aka, ua alohaia mai la au, no ka mea, ua hana au ia mea me ka naaupo, a me ka manaoio ole.
14 Our Lord in his grace filled me to overflowing with trust and love that comes from Christ Jesus.
A ua mahuahua nui mai la ke aloha wale mai o ko kakou Haku me ka manaoio, a me ke aloha aku iloko o Kristo Iesu.
15 You can trust this saying that everyone should accept: “Christ Jesus came to this world to save sinners,” and I'm the worst of them.
Eia hoi ka olelo oiaio, e pono e malama nui ia mai, ua hele mai o Kristo Iesu i ke ao nei, e hoola i ka poe hewa; owau no ko lakou mea oi.
16 For this reason I was shown mercy—since I'm the worst sinner, Jesus Christ could demonstrate his infinite patience as an example to those who choose to trust in him and gain eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
A ua alohaia mai hoi au, i hoike mai ai o Iesu Kristo ma o'u nei la mua, i ke ahonui a pau, i kumu no ka poe e paulele ana ia ia ma ia hope aku, i ola mau loa ai. (aiōnios g166)
17 Honor and glory forever and ever to the eternal King, the immortal, invisible, and only God! Amen. (aiōn g165)
I ke Alii mua loa, make ole, ike maka ole ia, ke Akua akamai hookahi wale no, ka mahalo, a me ka hoonaniia, a mau loa aku. Amene. (aiōn g165)
18 These are the instructions I want to give to you, Timothy, my son, following the prophecies that brought you this far, so you can fight the good fight!
O keia kauoha ka'u e kauoha aku nei ia oe, e ke keiki Timoteo, e like me na wanana i hai mua ia mai nou, e kaua aku oe no ia mau mea, i ke kaua maikai;
19 Keep on trusting God and make sure you have a clear conscience. Some have refused to do this and have shipwrecked their trust in God.
E hoomau ana i ka paulele a me ka manao maikai, i ka mea a kekahi poe i haalele ai, a ili iho la nabaha ka manaoio;
20 Hymenaeus and Alexander are such people, and I have “handed them over to Satan” to teach them not to misrepresent God.
O Humenaio, a me Alekanedero, kekahi o ua poe la; o laua ka'u i haawi aku ai ia Satana, i aoia'i laua e hoino hou ole aku.
