Romans 9
1 Truth I say in Christ, I do not lie, my conscience bearing testimony with me in the Holy Spirit,
KE olelo aku nei au i ka oiaio ma Kristo, aole o'u hoopunipuni, a o kuu lunamanao kekahi e hoike nei ia'u, ma ka Uhane Hemolele;
2 that I have great grief and unceasing pain in my heart—
He kaumaha nui ko'u a me ka ehaeha mau ma kuu naau.
3 for I was wishing, I myself, to be accursed from the Christ—for my brothers, my relatives, according to the flesh,
No ka mea, he pono i kuu manao e okiia mai au, mai o Kristo mai, no kuu poe hoahanau, na hanauna o'u ma ke kino.
4 who are Israelites, whose [is] the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the lawgiving, and the service, and the promises,
He poe Iseraela lakou, ia lakou ka hookamaia, a me ka nani, a me na berita, a me ka haawi ana mai i ke kanawai, a me ka hoomana, a me na olelo pomaikai;
5 whose [are] the fathers, and of whom [is] the Christ, according to the flesh, who is God over all, blessed for all ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
No lakou hoi ka poe kupuna, a na lakou mai hoi o Kristo ma ke kino, oia no maluna o na mea a pau, ke Akua hoomaikai mau loa ia. Amene. (aiōn g165)
6 And it is not possible that the word of God has failed; for not all who [are] of Israel are these of Israel;
Aole nae i haule wale ka olelo a ke Akua. No ka mea, aole ka poe Iseraela lakou a pau na Iseraela mai:
7 nor because they are seed of Abraham [are] all children, but, “in Isaac will a seed be called to you”;
Aole hoi he poe keiki lakou a pau ka poe mamo na Aberahama mai; aka, maloko o Isaaka e kohoia ai kaa poe mamo;
8 that is, the children of the flesh—these [are] not children of God; but the children of the promise are reckoned for seed;
Oia hoi o na keiki ma ke kino, aole lakou ka poe keiki na ke Akua; aka, o na keiki a ka olelo hoopomaikai e heluia na mamo.
9 for the word of promise [is] this: “According to this time I will come, and there will be to Sarah a son.”
No ka mea, penei ka olelo hoopomaikai, I keia wa e hoi mai ana au, a e loaa ia Sara he keiki kane.
10 And not only [so], but also Rebecca, having conceived by one—our father Isaac
Aole hoi keia wale no; aka, o Rebeka kekahi, hapai ae la ia na kekahi, na Isaaka ko kakou kupuna kane,
11 (for they being not yet born, neither having done anything good or evil, that the purpose of God, according to [divine] selection, might remain; not of works, but of Him who is calling),
No ka mea, (aole laua i hanau, aole hoi i hana i ka mea maikai, aole hoi i ka hewa, i kupaa ai ka manao o ke Akua, ma ka wae ana, aole no ka hana, aka, no ka mea nana i koho mai, )
12 it was said to her, “The greater will serve the less”;
Ua haiia mai keia ia ia, E hookauwa aku ke kaikuaana na ke kaikaina;
13 according as it has been written: “Jacob I loved, and Esau I hated.”
Me ka mea i palapalaia mai, O Iakoba ka'u i aluha ai, a o Esau hoi ka'u i hoowahawaha ai.
14 What, then, will we say? Unrighteousness [is] with God? Let it not be!
Heaha hoi ka kakou e olelo nei? He hewa anei ko ke Akua? Aole loa.
15 For to Moses He says, “I will do kindness to whom I do kindness, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion”;
No ka mea, ua olelo mai la oia ia Mose, E aloha ana au i ka'u mea e aloha aku ai, a e menemene ana au i ka'u mea e menemene aku ai.
16 so then—not of him who is willing, nor of him who is running, but of God who is doing kindness;
No ia hoi, aole na ka mea e makemake ana, aole hoi na ka mea e holo ana, aka, na ke Akua no, nana i aloha mai.
17 for the Writing says to Pharaoh, “For this very thing I raised you up, that I might show in you My power, and that My Name might be declared in all the land”;
No ka mea, olelo mai la ka Palapala hemolele ia Parao, No keia wahi mea ua hoala mai au ia oe, i hoike aku au i ko'u mana ma ou la, a i kaulana ai ko'u inoa ma ka honua a pau.
18 so then, to whom He wills, He does kindness, and to whom He wills, He hardens.
Nolaila hoi, ua aloha mai ai oia i kana mea i manao ai, a ua hoopaakiki hoi oia i kana mea i manao ai.
19 You will say, then, to me, “Why does He yet find fault? For who has resisted His counsel?”
A e ninau mai no hoi oe ia'u, No ke aha la ia i hoohewa mai ai? Nawai la hoi kona makemake i pale aku?
20 No, but, O man, who are you that are answering again to God? Will the thing formed say to Him who formed [it], Why did you make me thus?
Kahaha, E ke kanaka, owai la hoi oe ke pakike aku i ke Akua? E pono anei i ka mea i hanaia, ke olelo aku i ka mea nana i hana, No ke aha la oe i hana mai ai ia'u pela?
21 Does the potter not have authority over the clay, out of the same lump to make one vessel to honor and one to dishonor?
Aole anei e hiki i ka potera ke hana iho noloko o ka popo lepo hookahi i kekahi ipu no ka mahaloia, a i kekahi no ka mahalo ole ia?
22 And if God, willing to show the wrath and to make known His power, endured, in much long suffering, vessels of wrath fitted for destruction,
Heaha hoi, ina, e manao ana ke Akua, e hoomaopopo i koua huhu, a e hoike hoi i kona mana, ua hoomanawanui mai ia mo ke ahonui loa i na ipu e huhuia i hoomakaukauia no ka luku;
23 and that He might make known the riches of His glory on vessels of kindness, that He before prepared for glory, whom also He called—us—
A e hoike mai hoi i ka nui o kona lokomaikai mai i na ipu e alohaia ana i hoomakaukau mua ai no ka nani,
24 not only out of Jews, but also out of nations,
Ia kakou hoi ka poe ana i koho mai ai, aole mawaena o ka poe Indaio wale no, mawaena o na kauaka e kekahi.
25 as also in Hosea He says, “I will call what [is] not My people—My people; and her not beloved—Beloved,
E like me kana i olelo mai ai ma Hosea, E kapa ana au i ka poe kanaka aole no'u, i poe kanaka no'u, a me ka mea i aloha ole ia, i mea aloha.
26 and it will be—in the place where it was said to them, You [are] not My people; there they will be called sons of the living God.”
A ma kahi i oleloia'i ia lakou, Aole o ko'u poe kanaka oukou; ma laila e kapaia'i lakou he poe keiki lakou a ke Akua ola.
27 And Isaiah cries concerning Israel, “If the number of the sons of Israel may be as the sand of the sea, the remnant will be saved;
Ua olelo mai hoi o Isaia no ka Iseraela, Ina he lehulehu na mamo a Iseraela, e like me ke one o ke kai, he hapa ka poe e hoolaia.
28 for a matter He is finishing, and is cutting short in righteousness, because a matter cut short will the LORD do on the land.”
No ka mea, e hooko ana oia i kana olelo, a ua paa ia ma ka pono, no ka mea, e hana ana ka Haku ma ka honua i kana mea i hai maopopo ai.
29 And according as Isaiah says before, “Except the LORD of Hosts left to us a seed, we had become as Sodom, and we had been made like Gomorrah.”
E like hoi me ka Isaia i olelo mua mai ai, Ina i waiho ole mai Iehova Sabaota i koena no kakou, ina, ua like pu kakou me Sodoma, a ua hoohalikeia hoi me Gomora.
30 What, then, will we say? That nations who are not pursuing righteousness attained to righteousness, and righteousness that [is] of faith,
Heaha ka kakou e olelo nei no ia? O ko na aina e, ka poe i imi ole i ka hoaponoia, ua loaa ia lakou ka hoaponoia, o ka hoaponoia ma ka manaoio.
31 and Israel, pursuing a law of righteousness, did not arrive at a law of righteousness;
Aka, o ka Iseraela, ka poe i imi i ke kanawai e hoaponoia'i, aole loaa ia lakou ke kanawai e hoaponoia'i.
32 why? Because—not by faith, but as by works of law; for they stumbled at the stone of stumbling,
No ke aha? No ka mea, aole imi ma ka manaoio, aka, ma na hana ana o ke kanawai: no ka mea, ua kuia lakou i kela pohaku e kuia'i;
33 according as it has been written: “Behold, I place in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense; and everyone who is believing thereon will not be ashamed.”
E like me ka mea i palapalaia, Eia hoi, ke waiho nei au ma Ziona i ka pohaku e kuia'i, a i ka pohaku e hina ai: a o ka mea i manaoio ia ia, aole ia e hoka.
