< John 16 >

1 [Jesus continued by saying to us], “I have told you these things in order that you will not stop trusting in me [when people] ([cause you to suffer/persecute you]).
U A olelo aku au i keia mau mea ia oukou, o hina auanei oukou.
2 They will not allow you to worship in (synagogues/[their] meeting places). In fact, there will be a time when anyone who kills you will think that he is serving God [by doing that].
E hookuke lakou ia oukou iwaho o na halehalawai; a e hiki mai no ka manawa o manaoia ka mea pepehi ia oukou, ua hoomaikai aku ia i ke Akua.
3 They will do such things because they have never known who I [really am], nor who [my] Father [is].
A e hana lakou i keia mau mea, no ka mea, aole lakou i ike i ka Makua, aole hoi ia'u.
4 I have told you these things in order that when [they start] ([to cause you to suffer]/to [persecute you]) [MTY], you will remember that I warned you. I did not tell you these things when you first started [to accompany me] [MTY] because I was with you, [and they were causing trouble for me, not for you].”
Aka, o keia mau mea ka'u i olelo aku ai ia oukou, aia hiki mai ka manawa, alaila e manao oukou ia mau mea, no ka mea, ua hai aku au ia oukou. Aole nae au i hai aku ia mau mea ia oukou i kinohou, no ka mea, ua noho pu au me oukou.
5 “Now I am [about to] return to the one who sent me. But [I am disappointed that] none of you is asking me, ‘Where are you going?’
Ano ke hoi aku nei au i ka mea nana au i hoouna mai; aole nae kekahi o oukou e ninau mai ia'u, E hele ana oe ihea?
6 Instead, because I have told you these things, you are very sad.
Aka, no ka'u olelo ana'ku ia oukou ia mau mea, ua piha ko oukou naau i ka ehaeha.
7 But the truth is that it is good for you that I am going away, because if I do not go away, the [Holy Spirit], who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you will not come to you. But when I go, I will send him to you.
He oiaio no nae ka'u e olelo aku nei ia oukou; He pono no oukou e hele aku au: no ka mea, i ole au e hele aku, aole e hiki mai ke Kokua io oukou nei; aka, i hele aku au, na'u no ia e hoouna mai ia oukou.
8 When he comes, he will prove that those who do not belong to God [MTY] [are wrong about what is] sinful and about who is really righteous and about whom [God will] judge [and condemn for their sin].
Aia hiki mai ia, nana e hoakaka mai i ko ke ao nei i ka hewa, a i ka pono, a me ka hoahewa ana:
9 [He will tell people that their greatest] sin is that they do not believe in me.
I ka hewa, no ka mea, aole lakou e manaoio mai ia'u:
10 [He will tell people that] because I am going [back] to my Father, and you will no longer see me, [you will know that I am the one who was truly] righteous.
I ka pono, no ka mea, e hele aku au i ko'u Makua, aole oukou e ike hou ia'u:
11 [He will tell people that the fact] that [God] has already determined that [he] will punish [Satan], the one who rules this world, shows that [some day God] will also punish [those who do not belong to him].
I ka hoahewa ana, no ka mea, ua hoahewaia ke alii o keia ao.
12 I have many more things that [I would like] to tell you, but you are not able to accept them now.
He nui ka'u mau mea i koe e olelo aku ia oukou, aka, aole e hiki ia oukou ke hoomaopopo i keia manawa.
13 But [God’s] Spirit is the one who will teach you [God’s] truth. When he comes, he will guide you so that you [understand] all [spiritual] truth. He will not speak from his own [authority]. Instead, it is the things that he hears [my Father say] that he will tell you. He will also tell you about things that will happen [later].
Aia hiki mai kela, o ka Uhane oiaio, nana oukou e ao mai i ka oiaio a pau: no ka mea, aole nana kana olelo ana; aka, o na mea ana i lohe ai, oia kana e olelo ai, a e hoike no oia ia oukou i na mea e hiki mai ana.
14 He will honor me by revealing my [truth] to you.
E hoonani mai ia ia'u; no ka mea, e lawe no ia i ka'u, a e hoike aku ia oukou.
15 Everything that [my] Father has is mine. That is why I said that the Spirit is able to reveal my truth to you.”
O na mea a pau a ka Makua, na'u no ia; nolaila au i olelo ai, E lawe no ia i ka'u, a e hoike aku ia oukou.
16 “After a short time [I will leave you, and] you will not see me. Then a short time [after that] you will see me [again].”
A liuliu iki, aole oukou e ike ia'u: a liuliu iki hou aku, a e ike no oukou ia'u, no ka mea, e hele ana au i ka Makua.
17 [So] some of us said to each other, “What does he mean by saying ‘After a short time you will not see me,’ and ‘A short time after that you will see me again’? And [what does he mean by] ‘Because I am going back to [my] Father’?”
Nolaila, ninau ae la kekahi poe o na haumana ana ia lakou iho, Heaha keia mea ana i olelo mai ai ia kakou, A liuliu iki, aole oukou e ike ia'u; a liuliu iki hou aku, a e ike oukou ia'u: no ka mea, e hele ana au i ka Makua?
18 We kept asking each other, “What [does he mean by] saying ‘After a little while’? We do not understand what he is saying.”
Ninau ae la hoi lakou, Heaha keia mea ana i olelo ai, A liuliu iki? Aole kakou i ike i kana mea i olelo ai.
19 Jesus realized that we wanted to ask him [about that]. So he said to us, “You are asking [RHQ] each other [what I meant] when I said, ‘After a short time you will not see me, and then a short time [after that] you will see me [again].’
Ike iho la no o Iesu i ko lakou makemake e ninau ia ia, a i mai la oia ia lakou, Ke ninaninau anei oukou kekahi i kekahi i ka mea a'u i olelo ai, A liuliu iki, aole oukou e ike ia'u, a liuliu iki hou aku, a e ike oukou ia'u?
20 Listen to this carefully: [After I] ([leave you/die]), those who oppose God [MTY] will be happy, but you will be sad. But [later] you will stop being sad and you will become joyful.
Oiaio, he oiaio ka'u e olelo aku nei ia oukou, e uwe auanei oukou, a e kanikau hoi, aka, e olioli no ke ao nei: a e kaumaha auanei oukou, aka, e hooliloia ko oukou kaumaha i olioli.
21 A woman who is about to bear a child feels pain, because that is [what happens] [MTY] [at] that time. But after her baby is born, she forgets that pain, because she is very joyful that her child has been born.
O ka wahine hanau keiki, he ehaeha kona, no ka mea, ua hiki mai kona hora; a i hanauia ke keiki, aohe ona manao hou i ka popilikia, no ka olioli i ka hanauia o ke kanaka iloko o ke ao nei.
22 It will be the same with you. [I will soon die and] you will be sad. But after that, I will see you again. Then you will be joyful, and no one will be able to stop you from being joyful.
A he ehaeha ko oukou i keia manawa; aka, e ike hou auanei au ia oukou, a olioli ko oukou naau, aole kekahi e kaili aku i ko oukou olioli mai o oukou aku.
23 When that happens, you will not ask me any questions [about anything]. Listen to this carefully: [After that happens, my] Father will do for you anything you ask, because of his relationship with me [MTY].
A i kela manawa, aole e ninau mai oukou ia'u i kekahi mea. Oiaio, he oiaio ka'u e olelo aku nei ia oukou, O na mea a oukou e noi ai i ka Makua ma ko'u iuoa, oia kana e haawi mai ia oukou.
24 Up to the present time, using my authority you have not asked [God to do] anything for you [MTY]. Now keep asking [him for things that you need. If you do that], you will receive them, and then you will be completely joyful.
Mamua mai, aole oukou i noi i kekahi mea ma ko'u inoa: e no, a loaa ia oukou, i mahuahua ae ai ko oukou olioli.
25 Although I have been speaking these things using figurative language, there will soon be a time when I will no longer use that kind of language. Instead, I will tell you plainly (about my Father/what my Father [wants]).
Ua olelo pohihihi aku au ia mau mea ia oukou: e hiki mai no ka manawa, aole au e olelo pohihihi hou aku ia oukou, aka, e hoike akaka aku au ia oukou i na mea o ka Makua.
26 At that time, you will ask [him for things] (because you belong to me/with my authority) [MTY]. I will not [need to] ask [my] Father to do what you ask.
I kela manawa e nonoi aku oukou ma ko'u inoa; aole au e hai aku ia oukou, owau kekahi e noi aku i ka Makua no oukou.
27 [My] Father himself loves you because you have loved me and because you have believed that I came from God [my Father], [so he wants you to ask] him (OR, [so he does not need anyone to persuade] him [to help you])
No ka mea, o ka Makua, oia ke aloha aku ia oukou, no ko oukou aloha ana ia'u, a no ko oukou manaoio ana, ua hele mai au mai ke Akua mai.
28 I came from [my] Father into this world. Very soon I will be leaving this world and going [back] to my Father.”
Mai ka Makua mai au i hele mai nei i keia ao: eia hou, e haalele ana au i ke ao uei, a e hoi aku i ka Makua.
29 Then [we], his disciples, said, “Now you are speaking plainly, without using figurative language.
I aku la kana poe haumana ia ia, Aia hoi, ano ke olelo akaka mai nei oe, aole me ka olelonane.
30 Now we understand that you know everything. You do not need anyone to ask you questions [about anything, because you know what we want to ask before we ask you]. That [also] leads us to believe that you came from God.”
Ano, ua maopopo ia makou ua ike oe i na mea a pau, aole ou he mahema e pono ai ke ninau kekahi ia oe: no keia mea i manaoio ai makou, ua hele mai oe mai ke Akua mai.
31 Jesus replied, “Now you [RHQ] say that you believe [that I came from God].
Olelo mai la o Iesu ia lakou, Ke manaoio nei anei oukou?
32 But listen! There will soon be a time, and that time is already here, when you will all run away! Each of you will run away to your own home. You will leave me, and I will be alone. But I will not [really] be alone [at that time], because [my] Father is always with me.
Aia hoi, e hiki ana ka hora, ano hoi ua hiki mai, e hoopuehuia kela mea keia mea o oukou ma kona wahi, a e haalele oukou ia'u e hookahi wale no; aole hoi au e hookahi wale ana, no ka mea, o ka Makua pu me au.
33 I have told you these things in order that you may have [inner] peace because of your relationship with me. In this world you will have trouble. But be courageous! I have defeated those who are opposed to me [MTY], and [you can defeat them, too]!”
Ua olelo aku au ia oukou i keia mau mea, i loaa'i ia oukou ka maluhia iloko o'u. Iloko o ke ao nei e loaa ia oukou ka popilikia: aka, e hoolana oukou; ua lanakila wau maluna o ke ao nei.
