< Acts 15 >

1 Some men came down from Judea to Antioch and taught the brothers, saying, “Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.”
A IHO mai la kekahi poe, mai Iudea mai ao mai la lakou i na hoahanau, Ina aole oukou e okipoepoeia, e like me ka aono o Mose, aole hiki ia oukou ke hoolaia.
2 This brought Paul and Barnabas into a sharp dispute and debate with them. So Paul and Barnabas along with some others from among them were appointed to go up to Jerusalem to meet with the apostles and elders about this question.
Nui iho la ke kamailio ku e, a me ka hoopaapaa ana o lakou me Paulo laua me Barenaba. Manao iho la lakou e hele o Paulo, me Barenaba, a me kekahi poe o lakou, i Ierusalema, i na lunaolelo, a me na lunakahiko, no keia manao.
3 They therefore, being sent by the church, passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria and announced the conversion of the Gentiles. They brought great joy to all the brothers.
Na ka ekalesia lakou i kai maikai aku, a kaahele lakou ma Poinike, a ma Samaria e hai mai ana i ka huli ana o ko na aina e; a hoolioli loa lakou i na hoahanau a pau.
4 When they came to Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and the apostles and the elders, and they reported all the things that God had done with them.
A hiki lakou i Ierusalema, apo mai la ka ekalesia ia lakou, a me na lunaolelo, a me na lunakahiko, a hai aku la lakou i na mea a pau a ke Akua i hana mai ai mo lakou.
5 But certain men who believed, who belonged to the group of Pharisees, stood up and said, “It is necessary to circumcise them and to command them to keep the law of Moses.”
Ku mai la kekahi poe i manaoio, noloko mai o ka aoao Parisaio, i mai la, Pono ke okipoepoe ia lakou, a e kauoha aku e malama i ke kanawai o Mose.
6 So the apostles and the elders gathered together to consider this matter.
Hoakoakoa mai la ka poe lunaolelo, a me na lunakahiko, e kukakuka i keia mea.
7 After much debate, Peter stood up and said to them, “Brothers, you know that a good while ago God made a choice among you, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.
Nui loa iho la ka hoopaapaa, alaila, ku mai la o Petero, i mai la ia lakou, E na kanaka, na hoahanau, ua ike no oukou i na la mamua, wau no ko kakou mea a ke Akua i wae ai, i lohe ko na aina e i ka olelo maikai ma ko'u waha, a e manaoio mai.
8 God, who knows the heart, witnesses to them, giving them the Holy Spirit, just as he did to us;
A na ke Akua, ka mea i ike i ka naau, i koike mai no lakou, e haawi ana ia lakou i ka Uhaue Hemolele, me ia ia kakou.
9 and he made no distinction between us and them, making their hearts clean by faith.
Aole ia i hookaawale iki mawaena o kakou a me lakou, hoomaemae no ia i ko lakou naau i ka manaoio ana.
10 Now therefore why do you test God, that you should put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
No ia mea la ea, no ke aha la oukou e hoao aku nei i ke Akua e kau mai maluna o ka ai o na haumana i ka auamo hiki ole ia kakon a me ko kakou poe kupuna, ke amo?
11 But we believe that we shall be saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, just as they were.”
Ke manaoio nei no hoi kakou, e hoolaia'i kakou i ka lokomaikai mai o ka Haku, o Iesu e like me lakou.
12 All the multitude kept silent while they listened to Barnabas and Paul report the signs and wonders God had worked among the Gentiles through them.
Alaila noho malie ua ahakanaka la n pau, hoolohe aku la ia Barenaba laua me Paulo, i ko laua hai ana i na hoailona mana, a me na mea kupanaha a ke Akua i hana mai ai ma o laua la iwaena o ko na aina e.
13 After they stopped speaking, James answered, saying, “Brothers, listen to me.
Mahope iho i ko laua oki ana alaila olelo mai la o Iakobo, i mai la, E na kanaka, na hoahanau, e hoolohe mai ia'u:
14 Simon has told how God first graciously helped the Gentiles in order to take from them a people for his name.
Ua hai mai noi o Simeona i ko ke Akua holo ana mai mamua aku nei e ike i ko na aina e, e lawe mai i kekahi poe kanaka no kona inoa, mailoko mai o lakou.
15 The words of the prophets agree with this, as it is written,
Ua pili no hoi ka olelo a na kaula i keia mea: penei ka palapala ana,
16 'After these things I will return, and I will build again the tent of David, which has fallen down; I will set up and restore its ruins again,
A mahope iho, e hoi hou mai au, a e kukulu hou ae i ka halelewa o Davida i hiolo; a e hookuikui hou au i na mea hina, a e kukulu hou ia;
17 so that the remnant of men may seek the Lord, including all the Gentiles called by my name.'
I imi ai hoi na mea i koe o kanaka i ka Haku, a me ko na aina e a pau, ka poe i heaia ko'u inoa maluna o lakou, wahi a ka Haku, nana i hana keia mau mea.
18 This is what the Lord says, who has done these things that have been known from ancient times. (aiōn g165)
Mai kinohi mai ua ikeia no e ke Akua kana hana ana a pau. (aiōn g165)
19 Therefore, my opinion is, that we should not trouble those of the Gentiles who turn to God.
Nolaila hoi, ke manao aku nei au, aole e hookaumaha i ko na aina e i hoohuliia mai i ke Akua:
20 But we will write to them that they must keep away from the pollution of idols, from sexual immorality, and from the meat of strangled animals, and from blood.
E palapala aku no nae kakou ia lakou, e hookaaokoa lakou i na mea haumia o na kii, a me ka moe kolohe, a me na mea umi wale ia, a me ke koko.
21 For Moses has been proclaimed in every city from the ancient times and he is read in the synagogues every Sabbath.”
No ka mea, he poe no ko Mose, mai ka wa kahiko mai, ma na kulanakauhale a pau, nana e ao aku ma kana, na heluheluia no hoi kana maloko o na halehalawai, i na la Sabati a pau.
22 Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole church, to choose Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas, who were leaders of the church, and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas.
Alaila manao iho la na lunaolelo, a me ua lunakahiko, a me ka ekalesia a pau, he mea pono ke hoouna aku me Paulo laua o Barenaba, i mau kanaka i waeia, mailoko mai o lakou, i Anetioka, o Iuda i kapaia o Baresaba, a me Sila, he mau kanaka koikoi laua mawaena o na hoahanau.
23 They wrote this: “From the apostles and elders, your brothers, to the Gentile brothers in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia: Greetings!
Palapala aku la lakou, ma ko lakou lima, penei: Ke aloha aku nei na lunaolelo, a me na lunakahiko, a me na hoahanau, i na hoahanau o na lahuikanaka e ma Anetioka, a ma Suria, a ma Kilikia;
24 We have heard that certain men have gone out from us, with no orders from us, and have disturbed you with teachings that upset your souls.
No ka mea, ua lohe makou i kekahi poe hele aku, mai o makou aku, ua hoohihia ia oukou i na olelo, me ka hoohuli e ana i ko oukou uhane, i ka i ana ae, E okipoepoeia oukou, a e malama i ke kanawai; aole makou i kauoha aku ia lakou pela.
25 This being so, all of us have agreed to choose men and to send them to you along with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
I ko makou akoakoa lokahi ana, manao makou, he mea maikai ke hoouna aku ia oukou i kekahi mau kanaka i kohoia, i hele pu me ka makou mau mea i alohaia, me Barenaba lana o Paulo.
26 men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Ua haawi ia mau kanaka i ko laua ola no ka inoa o ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo.
27 Therefore we are sending Judas and Silas, who will tell you the same thing themselves in their own words.
Nolaila, ua hoouna no hoi makou ia Iuda, laua me Sila, a na laua no e hai ana aku ma ka olelo i keia mau mea hookahi no.
28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things:
No ka mea, ua manao ka Uhane Hemolele a me makou no hoi, aole e kau maluna o oukou, i kekahi mea kaumaha nui aku; o keia mau mea e pono ai wale no;
29 that you abstain from things sacrificed to idols, blood, things strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, it shall be well with you. Farewell.”
E hookaaokoa i ka io i mohaiia no na kii, a me ke koko, a me na mea i umi wale ia, a mo ka moe kolohe. Ina e pili ole oukou ia mau mea, ua hana maikai oukou. Aloha oukou.
30 So they, when they were dismissed, came down to Antioch; after they gathered the multitude together, they delivered the letter.
A kuuia mai la lakou, hele lakou i Anetioka; a hoakoakoa iho la lakou i ka ahakanaka, haawi aku la lakou i ua palapala la.
31 When they had read it, they rejoiced because of the encouragement.
A i ko lakou heluhelu ana, olioli lakou no ka olelo hoolana.
32 Judas and Silas, also prophets, encouraged the brothers with many words and strengthened them.
He mau kaula no hoi o Iuda laua me Sila, a hooikaika aku la iaua i na hoahanau, me na olelo he nui loa, a hookupaa iho la ia lakou.
33 After they had spent some time there, they were sent away in peace from the brothers to those who had sent them.
Noho iho la lakou i kokahi wa, kuu maikai ia'ku la lakou, mai na hoahanau aku, i hele aku i na lunaolelo.
Ua maikai no hoi i ko Sila manao e noho malaila.
35 But Paul and Barnabas stayed in Antioch along with many others, where they taught and proclaimed the word of the Lord.
A o Paulo laua o Barenaba, a me kekahi poe nui e ae, noho no lakou ma Anetioka, o ao ana, a e hai ana i ka olelo a ka Haku.
36 After some days Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us return now and visit the brothers in every city where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are.”
A hala kekahi mau la, i mai la o Paulo ia Barenaba, E hele hon kaua o ike i ko kaua mau hoahanau ma na kulanakauhale a pau a kaua i hai aku ai i ka olelo a ka Haku, pehea i noho la.
37 Barnabas wanted to also take with them John who was called Mark.
Manao paa iho la o Barenaba, e lawe pu aku ia Ieane i kapaia o Mareko.
38 But Paul thought it was not good to take Mark, who had left them in Pamphylia and did not go further with them in the work.
Aole nae i makemake o Paulo, e lawe pu i ka mea i haalele mai ia laua ma Pamepulia, a hele pu ole akai me laua i ka hana.
39 Then there arose a sharp disagreement, so that they separated from each other, and Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus.
Nolaila, hoopaapaa ikaika ae la laua, a hookaawale iho la kekahi I kekahi; lawe pu aku la o Barenaba ia Mareko, a holo aku la i Kupero.
40 But Paul chose Silas and left, after he was entrusted by the brothers to the grace of the Lord.
Koho aku la o Paulo ia Sila, a hele aku la, me ka haawiia i ka lokomaikai o ko Akua e na hoahanau.
41 Then he went through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches.
Hele aku la i Suria, a me Kilikia, e hookupaa aku ana i na ekalesia.
