Luke 1
1 My noble [friend] Theophilus, many people saw the things that [Jesus] did while he was with us, from the time when he started [MTY] [his ministry]. They served God [by teaching people] the message [about the Lord Jesus]. Many of those who heard what they taught wrote down for us accounts of the things that [Jesus did from the time when] he began [his ministry].
NO ka mea, he nui ka poe i hoao i ka hooponopono i ka mooolelo no na mea i hanaia iwaena o makou,
E like mo ka hai ana mai ia makou a ka poe ike maka, mai ke kumu mai, ka poe hoalewehana hoi no ka olelo.
3 I myself have studied these accounts carefully. So I decided that it would be good for me also to write for you [(sg)] an accurate account of these matters.
Manao iho la au he mea pono no'u, i ko'u huli ikaika ana a maopopo ia mau mea a pau, mai kinohi mai, e palapala hoakaka ia oe, e Teopilo ka mea kaalana,
4 I want you to know the truth about what you have been taught {what others have taught you}.
I ike oe i ka oiaio o ua mau mea la i aoia'ku ai oe.
5 When King Herod [the Great ruled] Judea [district], there was a [Jewish] priest named Zechariah. He belonged to the [group of priests called] the Abijah group. He and his wife Elizabeth were both descended from the [first priest of Israel], Aaron.
IKE au ia Herode ke alii o Iudea, e noho ana kekahi kahuna, o Zakaria kona inoa, no ka papa o Abia; a o kana wahine, no na kaikamahine ia a Aarona, o Elisabeta kona inoa.
6 [God considered that] both of them were righteous, because they constantly completely obeyed everything that God had commanded.
Ua pono pu laua imua o ke Akua, e hele hala ole ana ma na kanawai a me na oihana a pau a ka Haku.
7 But they had no children, because Elizabeth had been unable to bear children. Furthermore, she and her husband were very old.
Aohe hoi a laua keiki, no ka mea, he pa o Elisabeta; a he nui no hoi ka laua mau makahiki.
8 One day [Zechariah’s] group was doing their work [in the Temple in Jerusalem], and he was serving as a priest in God’s presence.
Eia kekahi, i kana hana ana i ka oihana kahuna imua o ke Akua, i ka manawa o kona papa,
9 Following their custom, [the other priests] chose him by lot to enter the Lord’s temple and burn incense.
Mamuli o ka oihana mua a ke kahuna, o kana hana keia, e kuni i ka mea ala i kona hele ana iloko o ka luakini o ka Haku.
10 While he was burning the incense, many people were outside [in the courtyard], praying.
E pule ana ka ahakanaka a pau mawaho, i ka hora i kukuniia'i ka mea ala.
11 Then an angel whom God had [sent] appeared to him. The angel was standing at the right side of the place [where the priests burned] incense.
Alaila ikeia aku la ka anela a ka Haku, e ka ana ma ka aoao akau o ke kuahu mea ala.
12 When Zechariah saw the angel, he was startled and became very afraid.
A ike aku o Zakaria ia ia, pihoihoi iho la ia, a kau mai la ka makau ia ia.
13 But the angel said to him, “Zechariah, do not be afraid! When you [(sg)] prayed [asking God for a son] (OR, [that God would send the Messiah]), God heard what you prayed. [So] your wife Elizabeth shall bear a son. You must name him John.
I mai la ka anela ia ia, Mai makau oe, e Zakaria, no ka mea, ua loheia kau pule; a e hanau ana kau wahine o Elisabeta i keiki kane nau, a e kapa aku oe i kona inoa o Ioane.
14 He will cause you to be very happy, and many other people will also be happy because he is born.
A o hauoli ana hoi oe me ka olioli, a he nui no hoi ka poe e hauoli i kona hanau ana.
15 God will consider him to be very important. He must never drink wine or any other alcoholic drink, [in order that he will be completely dedicated to God]. He will be controlled by the Holy Spirit {The Holy Spirit will control him} from before he is born.
No ka mea, e nui auanei oia imua o ka Haku; aole ia e inu i ka waina, aole hoi i ka mea awaawa; o piha no hoi ia i ka Uhane Hemolele, mai ka opu mai o kona makuwahine.
16 He will [persuade] many people in Israel to turn away [from their sins and please] the Lord their God.
E nui no hoi na mamo a Iseraela ana e hoohuli ai ma ka Haku, ma ko lakou Akua.
17 As [God’s] Spirit enables him [to preach] powerfully as [the prophet] Elijah did, he will precede [the Messiah]. He will cause parents [SYN] to act [peacefully] toward their children [again]. He will cause [many] people who do not obey [God to hear and obey] the wise things that righteous people [tell them]. He will do this in order to help [many] people to be ready when the Lord [comes].”
E hele ana hoi ia mamua ona, me ka uhane a me ka mana o Elia, e hoohuli i ka naau o na makua i ka lakou mau keiki, a i ka poe lohe ole mamuli o ka naauao o ka poe pono; e hooponopono ai i kanaka makaukau no ka Haku.
18 Then Zechariah said to the angel, “I am very old, and my wife is also so old [that she cannot bear a child. So] (I cannot [believe] that what you [(sg)] said [will happen]!/how can I [believe] that what you [(sg)] said [will happen]?) [RHQ]”
Ninau aku la o Zakaria i ka anela, Mahea la wau e ike ai ia mea? No ka mea, he kanaka kahiko wau, a he nui no hoi na makahiki o ka'u wahine.
19 Then the angel said to him, “I am [God’s chief angel], Gabriel! [I do what God tells me, because] I constantly am in God’s presence! I was sent {[He] sent me} to tell you [(sg)] something good [that is going to happen to you].
Olelo mai la ka anela, i mai la ia ia, Owau no o Gaberiela, ka mea e ku ana imua o ke Akua; a ua hoounaia mai nei au e olelo ia oe, a e hai aku ia oe ia mau mea olioli.
20 What I have told you will certainly happen at the time [God decides], but you did not believe what I told you. So now [God will make] you will be unable to talk until the day [your son is born]”!
Aia hoi, o paa ana kou leo, aole e hiki ia oe ke olelo, a hiki i ka la e ko ai ia mau mea, no ka mea, aole oe i manaoio mai i ka'u mau olelo, o hookoia auanei ia i ko lakou manawa.
21 While [Zechariah and the angel] were talking, the people [in the courtyard] were waiting for Zechariah [to come out]. They wondered, “Why is he staying in the Temple for such a long time?”
Kakali ae la na kanaka ia Zakaria, haohao iho la i kona loihi ana maloko o ka luakini.
22 When Zechariah came out, he was not able to speak to the people. Because he could not talk, he made motions with his hands [to try to convey what had happened]. Then they realized that he had seen (a vision [from God]/something that [God] showed him) while he was in the Temple.
A puka ia iwaho, aole i hiki ia ia ke olelo mai ia lakou; a ike iho la lakou, ua ike oia i ka mea ikea iloko o ka luakini; no ka mea, kunou oia ia lakou, a ua paa no kona leo.
23 When Zechariah’s time to work [as a priest in the Temple] was finished, he [left Jerusalem and] returned to his home.
Eia kekahi, i ka pau ana'e o na la o kana hana, hoi koke no ia i kona hale.
24 Some time later his wife Elizabeth became pregnant [EUP]. She did not leave their house for five months, [because she knew that people would laugh at her if she told them that she was pregnant].
A, mahope iho o ia mau la, hapai iho la kana wahine, o Elisabeta, a noho mehameha iho la ia i na malama elima, i iho la,
25 But she thought, “God has enabled me to become pregnant. He has pitied me and I will no longer be ashamed [because I have no children]!”
Oia ka ka Haku i hana mai ai no'u ia mau ia ana i manao mai ai e lawe aku i ka mea a'u i hoinoia mai ai iwaena o kanaka.
26 When Elizabeth had been [pregnant] [EUP] [for almost] six months, the angel Gabriel was sent by God {God sent the angel Gabriel} [again].
A i ke ouo o ka malama, na hoounaia mai o Gaberiela, mai ke Akua mai, i kekahi kulanakauhale i Galilaia, o Nazareta ka inoa,
27 [This time] he went to Nazareth [town] in Galilee [district], to a virgin whose name was Mary. It had been {[Her parents] had} promised that she would marry a man named Joseph, who was descended from [King] David.
I ka wahine puupaa i hoopalauia na kekahi kanaka, o Iosepa ka inoa, no ka ohana a Davida; a o Maria ka inoa o ua wahine puupaa la.
28 The angel greeted her and said, “(The Lord/God) is with you [(sg)] and you will be greatly blessed {[has decided to] greatly bless you}!”
A komo ka anela io na la, i mai la ia, Aloha oe, e ka mea i aloha nui ia, o ka Haku pu me oe. Pomaikai loa oe iwaena o na wahine.
29 But Mary was very confused [when she heard] that. She wondered what [the angel meant] by these words.
A ike aku la, hopohopo iho la oia i kana olelo, a nalu iho la i ke ano o keia aloha ana.
30 Then the angel said to her, “Mary, God is very pleased with you [(sg)], so do not be afraid.
I mai la ka anela ia ia, Mai makau oe, e Maria; no ka mea, ua loaa ia oe ka lokomaikaiia mai e ke Akua.
31 You will become pregnant and bear a son, and you must name him Jesus.
Eia hoi, e hapai auanei oe, a e hanau i ke keikikane, a e kapa iho oe i kona inoa, o IESU.
32 He will become great. He will be called {[People will] call him} (the Son of God/the man who is also God). God, the Lord, will make him a king [MTY] as his ancestor [King] David was.
E nui auanei oia, a e kapaia 'ku, O ke Keiki a ka Mea kiekie loa; a e haawi hoi nona o Iehova ke Akua i ka nohoalii o Davida o kona makuakane.
33 He will be the King of [the] Jews, the descendants [MTY] of [your ancestor] Jacob, forever. He will rule as king forever!” (aiōn g165)
E mau loa no hoi kona alii ana maluna o ka ohana a Iakoba; a o kona aupuni aole ia e pau. (aiōn g165)
34 Then Mary said to the angel, “I am a virgin, so how can I [have a baby]?”
Alaila, ninau aku la o Maria i ka anela, Pehea la uanei ia mea? no ka mea, aole au ike i ke kane.
35 The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come to you; the power of God [MTY/EUP] will overshadow you [and enable you to become pregnant]. So the child [you will] bear will be completely set apart {give himself completely} to obey God, and he will be called {[people] will say that he is} (the Son of God/the man who is also God).
Olelo mai la ka anela, i mai la ia ia, E kau mai no ka Uhane Hemolele maluna iho ou; a e hoomalu mai ka mana o ka Mea kiekie loa ia oe, no ia mea la hoi, e kapaia ka mea hemolele au e hanau ai, o ke Keiki a ke Akua.
36 [I also need to tell you something else]. Your cousin Elizabeth is very old, and it was thought {[people] said} that she could not bear any children. But she has been [pregnant] [EUP] [for almost] six months, and will bear a son!
Aia hoi, o Elisabeta o kou hoahanau, ua hapai ae nei i ke keikikane i kona wa luwahine; eia hoi ke ono o ka malama o ka wahine i iia'e he pa.
37 [You should not be surprised at that], because God can do everything!”
No ka mea, aohe mea hiki ole i ke Akua.
38 Then Mary said, “All right, I want to serve (the Lord/God), so may what you [(sg)] have said about me come true!” Then the angel left her.
I aku la o Maria, Eia hoi ke kauwa wahine a ka Haku; e like me kau olelo, pela e hanaia mai ai no'u. Alaila, hele aku la ka anela mai ona aku.
39 Very soon after that, Mary got ready and went quickly to a town in the highlands of Judea [district] where Zechariah lived.
Ia mau la, eu ae la o Maria, a hele wikiwiki aku la i ka aina manua, i kekahi kulanakauhale o Iuda;
40 She entered his house and greeted [his wife] Elizabeth.
A komo aku ia iloko o ka hale o Zakaria, a aloha aku la ia Elisabeta,
41 As soon as Elizabeth heard Mary greet her, the baby moved inside [Elizabeth’s] womb. The Holy Spirit took complete control of Elizabeth,
Eia kekahi, i ka wa i lohe ai o Elisabeta i ko Maria aloha, lele iho la ke keiki iloko o kona opu; a hoopihaia o Elisabeta i ka Uhane Hemolele;
42 and she said loudly [to Mary], “[God] has blessed you [more than] he has blessed [any other] woman, and [he has] blessed the child you will bear!
A olelo mai la oia me ka leo nui, i mai la, Pomaikai loa oe iwaena o na wahine, Pomaikai hoi ka hua o kou opu,
43 (I am not worthy that [God would allow you] to visit me!/Why is [God allowing you] to visit me?) [RHQ] You will be the mother of my Lord!
Nohea mai keia ia u, i hele mai nei ka makuwahine o ko'u Haku io'u nei?
44 [I realize this because] as soon as I heard you greet me, the baby inside my womb moved because he was so happy [that you had come].
No ka mea, aia hoi, i ka pae ana mai o kou aloha iloko o ko'u mau pepeiao, lele koke ae nei ke keiki i ka olioli iloko o ko'u opu.
45 [God] is pleased with you [because] you believed that what (the Lord/God) told you would come true.”
Pomaikai hoi ka wahine i manaoio; e hanaia no na mea i haiia mai ia ia e ka Haku.
46 Then Mary [praised God by] saying/singing: “, how I [SYN] praise (the Lord/God)!
Alaila, i aku la o Maria, Ke hoonani aku nei kuu uhane i ka Haku;
47 I am happy because God is the one who saves me.
Hauoli no hoi ko'u uhane i ke Akua i ko'u mea e ola'i;
48 I was only his lowly servant girl, but he did not forget me. So from now on, everyone will say that God was pleased with me,
No ka mea, ua nana aloha mai oia i ka haahaa o kana kauwa wahine, Eia hoi, ma neia hope aku e iia mai au e na hanauna a pau, He pomaikai.
49 because they will hear about the things that God [MTY], the mighty one, has done for me. He [MTY] is awesome!
No ka mea, o ka Mea mana, ua hana mai ia i na mea nani no'u. He hemolele hoi kona inoa.
50 He acts mercifully toward all those who respect him.
E mau ana kona aloha i ka poe makau ia ia, ia hanauna aku ia hanauna aku.
51 He shows people that he [MTY] is very powerful. He scatters those who think proudly.
Ua hoike mai oia i ka mana ma kona lima. Ua hoopuehu i ka poe i haaheo i ka manao o ko lakou naau.
52 He does not let mighty kings rule [MTY] any more, but he honors people who are oppressed (OR, humble).
Ua kiola iho la oia i na'lii ilalo mai luna mai o ko lakou mau nohoalii; a ua hookiekie ae hoi oia i ka poe haahaa.
53 He gives good things to eat to those who are hungry, but he sends away the rich people without giving them anything.
Ua hoomaona mai oia i ka pololi i na mea maikai; a ua hookuke hoi oia i ka poe waiwai me ka nele.
54 And now he has remembered what he promised. So he has helped me and all the other people of [MTY] Israel who serve him.
Ua kokua mai oia i kana hanai ia Iseraela, me ka hoomanao i ke aloha,
55 He promised to Abraham and all our other ancestors who descended from him that he would act mercifully toward them forever.” (aiōn g165)
Mamuli o kana olelo na ko kakou poe kupuna, ia Aberahama, a me kona hua a mau loa aku. (aiōn g165)
56 Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months. Then she returned to her home.
Noho pa iho la o Maria me Elisabeta ekolu paha malama, alaila hoi ia i kona hale.
57 When it was time for Elizabeth to give birth to her child, she bore a son.
A hiki ko Elisabeta manawa e hanau ai; hanau iho la oia i ke keikikane.
58 Her neighbors and relatives heard how (the Lord/God) had greatly blessed her [by enabling her to bear a child], so they were happy along with [Elizabeth].
Lohe iho la na hoalauna, a me na hoahanau ona, i ko ka Haku lokomaikai nui ana ia ia; a olioli pu ae la lakou me ia.
59 Seven days later they gathered together for the [ceremony for] circumcising the baby [to show that he belonged to God]. They wanted to give the baby the same name as his father, Zechariah.
Eia kekahi, i ka walu o ka la hele mai lakou e okipoepoe i ke keiki; kapa ae la lakou ia ia mamuli o ka inoa o kona makuakane, o Zakaria.
60 But his mother said, “No, [his name will not be Zechariah]. His name will be John!”
Olelo aku la kona makuwahine, i aku la, Aole; aka, e kapaia 'ku no ia o Ioane.
61 [So] they said to her, “[John] is not the name of any of your [(dl)] relatives, [so you(dl) should not give him that name]!”
I mai la lakou ia ia, Aole ou boahanau i kapaia'ku ma keia inoa.
62 Then they made motions with their hands to Zechariah, [for him] to indicate what name [he] wanted to be given {to give} to his son.
Ninau ae la lakou ma ke kunou ana i kona makuakane i ka inoa ana i makemake ai e kapaia'ku oia.
63 [So] he signaled that they [should give him] a tablet [to write on. When they gave him one], he wrote [on it], “His name is John.” All those [who were there] were surprised!
Noi ae la ia i papa palapala, kakau iho la, i ae la, O Ioane kona inoa. A kahaha iho la ko loko o lakou a pau.
64 Immediately Zechariah was able to speak again [MTY], and he praised God.
A wehe koke ia iho la kona waha a me kona elelo, a olelo aku la ia me ka hoolea i ke Akua.
65 All their neighbors were amazed/awestruck! They told other people who lived all over the highlands of Judea about what had happened.
Kau mai la hoi ka makau maluna o ka poe a pau e kokoke mai ana ia lakou. Kukui ae la ka lono o ua mau mea la a puni ka aina manua o Iudea.
66 Everyone who heard about it kept thinking about it. They were saying, “We wonder what will this child do [for God when] he [grows up] [RHQ]!” They wondered that because [from what had happened they were sure that] God would be helping that child [SYN] [in a powerful way].
A o ka poe a pau i lobe, nalu iho la lakou ma ko lakou mau naau, e i ana iho, Heaha la uanei ke ano o keia keiki? Aia me ia ka lima o ka Haku.
67 [After] Zechariah’s [son was born], Zechariah was completely directed by the Holy Spirit {the Holy Spirit completely directed Zechariah} as he spoke these words that came from God:
A o Zakaria kona makuakane, ua piha ia i ka Uhane Hemolele, wanana mai la oia, i mai la,
68 “Praise the Lord, the God whom we(inc) people of Israel worship, because he has come to set us, his people, free from our enemies.
E hoomaikaiia ka Haku ke Akua o ka Iseraela; no ka mea, ua ike mai, a ua hoola hoi ia i kona poe kanaka.
69 He is sending us someone who will powerfully [MTY] save us, someone who is descended from [MTY] King David, who served God well.
Ua kukulu mai nei oia i mea mana e ola'i no kakou, iloko o ka hale o Davida o kana kauwa;
E like me kana i hai mai ai ma ka waha o kana mau kaula hemolele mai ke kumu mai o ke ao nei: (aiōn g165)
71 He will rescue us from our enemies, and he will save us from the power of all those who hate us.
E pakele ai kakou i ko kakou poe enemi, a i ka lima hoi o ka poe a pau e inaina mai ia kakou;
72 He will do this because he has not forgotten what he promised our ancestors; he made an agreement that he would act mercifully to us, their descendants.
E hana lokomaikai ana mai i ko kakou poe kupuna, a me ka hoomanao ana hoi i kana berita hemolele:
73 That is what he strongly promised our ancestor Abraham that he would do.
I ka mea hoohiki ana i hoohiki ai no Aberahama, no ko kakou kupuna,
74 God told him that we would be rescued {he would rescue us} from the power of our enemies, that he would enable us to serve him without being afraid,
E haawi mai oia ia kakou, i ka pakele ana i ka lima o ko kakou poe enemi, e malama wiwo ole aku kakou ia ia,
75 that he would cause us to be completely dedicated to him, and enable us to live righteously all of our lives.”
Me ka hemolele a me ka pono imua o kona alo, i na la a pau o ke ola ana o kakou.
76 [Then Zechariah said this to] his little son: “My child, you will be called {people will say that you are} a prophet whom God [MTY/EUP] has sent; you will begin your work before (the Lord/Messiah) comes; you will prepare people so that they will be ready for him. (OR, you will begin your work before the Messiah comes).
A o oe, e ke keiki nei, e kapaia'e oe, He kaula na ka mea kiekie loa; no ka mea, e hele ana oe imua o ka maka o ka Haku, e hoomakaukau i na alanui nona;
77 You will tell God’s people how he will forgive them and save them from being punished for their sins.
E hoike ana i kona poe kanaka i ke ola, ma ke kala ana iho i ko lakou mau hewa,
78 Our God will do that because he is very kind to us. Just like a new day begins when the sun rises [MET], God will do that new thing for us when the Messiah comes to us from heaven.
No ka lokomaikai io o ko kakou Akua; no kahi mea i puka mai ai ka malamalama ia kakou mai luna mai,
79 People who do not know God [MET] are like those who sit in the darkness. They are afraid [MTY] that they will soon die. But when the Messiah tells us God’s message, it will be like causing such people to see a bright light. He will guide us [SYN] so that we will be living peacefully.”
E hoomalamalama i ka poe e noho ana i ka pouli, a iloko hoi o ka malu o ka make, a e alakai hoi i ko kakou mau wawae ma ka aoao e maluhia ai.
80 [Later], Zechariah’s son grew up and became spiritually strong. Then he lived in a desolate region until he began to preach to the Israeli people.
A nui ae la ua keiki la, ikaika ae la hoi kona manao; ma na wahi nahele no hoi ia, a hiki i ka la o kona hoikeia i ka Iseraela.
