Colossians 4
1 Ye masters, doe vnto your seruants, that which is iust, and equall, knowing that ye also haue a master in heauen.
E NA a haku, e haawi aku na na kauwa i ka mea pono, a me ka ewaewa ole; ua ike oukou ho Haku ko oukou ma ka lani.
2 Continue in prayer, and watch in the fame with thankesgiuing,
E hoomau i ka pule, e makaala hoi ma ia mea, me ka hoomaikai aku.
3 Praying also for vs, that God may open vnto vs the doore of vtterance, to speake ye mysterie of Christ: wherefore I am also in bonds,
No makou kekahi e pule ai oukou, i wehe mai ke Akua i ka puka no makou e olelo ai, e hai aku i ka mea pohihihi o Kristo i ko'u mea i hoopeaia mai nei:
4 That I may vtter it, as it becommeth mee to speake.
I hiki ia'u ke hoomaopopo ia mea, me he mea pono la ia u ke olelo aku.
5 Walke wisely towarde them that are without, and redeeme the season.
E hele naauao oukou mamua o ka poe mawaho, e malama pono ana i ka manawa.
6 Let your speach be gracious alwayes, and powdred with salt, that ye may know how to answere euery man.
E hoomauia ka maikai o ka oukou olelo, i miko ia i ka paakai, i ike oukou i ka mea e pono ai ke olelo i kela kanaka a i keia kanaka.
7 Tychicus our beloued brother and faithfull minister, and fellow seruant in the Lord, shall declare vnto you my whole state:
A o ko'u noho ana, na Tukiko ia e hai aku ia oukou, na ka hoahanau aloha, ka lawehana hoopono, ka hoakauwa iloko o ka Haku.
8 Whom I haue sent vnto you for the same purpose that he might know your state, and might comfort your hearts,
Oia ka'u i hoouna aku nei io oukou la, no ia mea, i ike aku ia i ko oukou noho ana, a e hooluolu aku hoi i ko oukou mau naau;
9 With Onesimus a faithfull and a beloued brother, who is one of you. They shall shew you of all things here.
Me Oneaimo, ka hoahanau aloha hoopono, no oukou mai ia; na laua e hoike aku ia oukou i na mea a pau o nei.
10 Aristarchus my prison fellow saluteth you, and Marcus, Barnabas cousin (touching whom ye receiued commandements. If he come vnto you, receiue him)
Ke uwe aku nei o Arisetareko, ko'u hoapio ia oukou, laua o Mareko ke keiki a ko Barenaba kaikuwahine, (nona oukou i kauohaia aku ai, oia ka oukou e hookipa ai, ke hiki aku ia io oukou la, )
11 And Iesus which is called Iustus, which are of the circumcision. These onely are my worke fellowes vnto the kingdome of God, which haue bene vnto my consolation.
A me Iesou, i kapa hou ia'i Iouseto, no ke okipoepoe laua O lakou wale no ko'u mau hoalawehana ma ke aupuni o ke Akua, na mea i hooluolu mai nei ia'u.
12 Epaphras the seruant of Christ, which is one of you, saluteth you, and alwayes striueth for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect, and full in all the will of God.
Ke uwe aku nei o Epapera ia oukou, no oukou ia, o ke kauwa a Kristo, e hooikaika mau ana no oukou, i ka pule, i ku hemolele oukou me ke kina ole, ma ka makemake a pau o ke Akua.
13 For I beare him record, that he hath a great zeale for you, and for them of Laodicea, and them of Hierapolis.
Ke hoike aku nei au nona, he ikaika nui kona no oukou, a no ka poe ma Laodikeia, a me ka poe i Hierapoli.
14 Luke the beloued physician greeteth you, and Demas.
Ke uwe aku nei ia oukou o Luka, ke kahuna lapaau punahele, a me Dema.
15 Salute the brethren which are of Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the Church which is in his house.
E aloha aku oukou i ka poe hoahanau i Laodikeia, a ia Numepana, a me ka ekalesia iloko o kona hale.
16 And when this Epistle is read of you, cause that it be read in the Church of the Laodiceans also, and that ye likewise reade the Epistle written from Laodicea.
Aia heluheluia keia episetole, iwaena o oukou la na oukou e heluhelu hou aku ia i ka ekalesia o ko Laodikeia; a e heluhelu hoi oukou i ka episetole mai Laodikeia mai.
17 And say to Archippus, Take heede to the ministerie, that thou hast receiued in the Lord, that thou fulfill it.
E i aku ia Arekipo, E malama oe i ka oihana i loaa ia oe iloko o ka Haku, nau ia e hooponopono.
18 The salutation by the hand of me Paul. Remember my bands. Grace be with you, Amen. ‘Written from Rome to the Colossians, and sent by Tychicus, and Onesimus.’
O ke aloha nae, na ka lima ia o'u nei o Paulo. E hoomanao mai i ko'u mea i paa ai. E alohaia mai oukou. Amene.
