Matthew 18
1 In that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who then is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?”
I A manawa, hele aku la ka poe haumana io Iesu la, i aku la, Owai la ka mea nui loa iloko o ke aupuni o ka lani?
2 Jesus called a little child to himself, and set him in the middle of them
Kahea aku la o Iesu i wahi keiki uuku, hooku ae la ia ia iwaenakonu o lakou,
3 and said, “Most certainly I tell you, unless you turn and become as little children, you will in no way enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.
I mai la, He oiaio ka'u e olelo aku nei ia oukou, ina aole oukou i hoohuliia'e, a e like hoi me na keiki uuku, aole loa oukou e komo iloko o ke aupuni o ka lani.
4 Whoever therefore humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.
O ka mea hoohaahaa ia ia iho e like me keia keiki, oia ka nui loa iloko o ke aupuni o ka lani.
5 Whoever receives one such little child in my name receives me,
O ka mea launa aku i kekahi keiki e like me keia no ko'u inoa, oia ke launa mai ia'u.
6 but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if a huge millstone were hung around his neck and that he were sunk in the depths of the sea.
Aka, o ka mea hoohihia aku i kekahi o keia poe mea uuku o ka poe manaoio mai ia'u, e aho nona ke nakinakiia ka pohaku wili palaoa ma kona a-i, a e hoopaholoia oia i kahi hohonu o ke kai.
7 “Woe to the world because of occasions of stumbling! For it must be that the occasions come, but woe to that person through whom the occasion comes!
Auwe ko ke ao nei no na hoohihia ana! E hiki io mai no na hihia; aka, auwe ke kanaka nana e hoohihia mai!
8 If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life maimed or crippled, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into the eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
Ina e hoohibia mai kou lima a o kou wawae paha ia oe, e oki iho ia mea, a e hoolei aku; e aho nou e komo oopa oe, a mumuku paha iloko o ke ola, i ole e hoolei pu ia'ku oe me kou mau lima elua, a me na wawae elua iloko o ke ahi mau loa. (aiōnios g166)
9 If your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire. (Geenna g1067)
Ina paha e hoohihia mai kou maka ia oe, e poalo ae, a hoolei aku; e aho nou e komo makahi oe iloko o ke ola, i ole e hooleiia oe me na maka elua iloko o ke ahi o Gehena. (Geenna g1067)
10 See that you don’t despise one of these little ones, for I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.
E ao oukou, mai hoowahawaha mai i kekahi o keia poe mea uuku: no ka mea, ke olelo aku nei au ia oukou, e nana mau ana ko lakou poe anela i ka lani i ka helehelena o ko'u Makua i ka lani.
11 For the Son of Man came to save that which was lost.
A ua hele mai nei ke Keiki a ke kanaka e hoola i ka mea i auwana.
12 “What do you think? If a man has one hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine, go to the mountains, and seek that which has gone astray?
Heaha ko oukou manao? Ina paha hookahi haneri hipa a kekahi kanaka, a ua auwana kekahi o lakou, aole anei ia e waiho i ka poe kanaiwakumamaiwa, a hele aku ma na mauna e imi i ka mea i nalowale?
13 If he finds it, most certainly I tell you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine which have not gone astray.
Ina paha e loaa oia ia ia, he oiaio ka'u e olelo aku nei ia oukou, ua oi aku kona olioli no ua hipa la, i ka olioli no na hipa he kanaiwakumamaiwa aole i auwana.
14 Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.
Pela hoi, aole e makemake ko oukou Makua i ka lani e lilo aku kekahi o keia poe mea uuku.
15 “If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother.
Ina e hana hewa mai kou hoahanau ia oe, e hele oe e ao aku ia ia olua wale no. A i hoolohe mai oia ia oe, ua loaa ia oe kou hoahanau.
16 But if he doesn’t listen, take one or two more with you, that at the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
A i hoolohe ole mai oia ia oe, e kono aku me oe i hookahi i elua paha, i maopopo ai kela olelo keia olelo ma ka waha o na mea ike maka elua a ekolu paha.
17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the assembly. If he refuses to hear the assembly also, let him be to you as a Gentile or a tax collector.
Ina paha e hoolohe ole kela ia laua, alaila, e hai aku ia mea i ka ekalesia; a ina paha e hoolohe ole ia i ka ekalesia no hoi, e hoohalike oe ia ia me ke kanaka e, a me ka lunaauhau.
18 Most certainly I tell you, whatever things you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever things you release on earth will have been released in heaven.
He oiaio ka'u e olelo aku nei ia oukou, O na mea a oukou e hoopaa ai ma ka honua nei, e hoopaaia hoi lakou ma ka lani; a o na mea a oukou e kala ai ma ka honua nei, e kalaia no hoi lakou ma ka lani.
19 Again, assuredly I tell you, that if two of you will agree on earth concerning anything that they will ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven.
Eia hou, Ke olelo aku nei hoi au ia oukou, ina paha elua o oukou ma ka honua nei e manao like i kekahi mea a laua e noi ai, e haawiia'ku hoi ia na laua e ko'u Makua i ka lani.
20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the middle of them.”
No ka mea, ma kahi e halawai ai na mea elua a ekolu paha ma ko'u inoa, malaila hoi au iwaena pu me lakou.
21 Then Peter came and said to him, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?”
Alaila, hele aku la o Petero io na la, i aku la, E ka Haku, ehia na hana hewa ana mai a ko'u hoahanau ia'u, a kala aku au ia ia? ehiku anei?
22 Jesus said to him, “I don’t tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven.
Olelo mai la o Iesu ia ia, Ke i aku nei au ia oe, Aole ehiku wale no; aka, he kanahiku hiku.
23 Therefore the Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.
No ia mea, ua like ke aupuni o ka lani me kekahi alii, ka i manao iho e olelo hoakaka me kana poe kauwa no ka lakou aie ana.
24 When he had begun to settle, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.
I ka hoomaka ana e hoakaka ai, ua kaiia mai kekahi mea aie io na la, he umi tausani na talena kana i aie ai.
25 But because he couldn’t pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, with his wife, his children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.
Aole hoi ana mea e uku aku ai; kauoha aku la kona haku e kuai lilo ia'ku oia me kana wahine, a me kana mau keiki, a me kana mea a pau loa, i loaa'i ka uku.
26 The servant therefore fell down and knelt before him, saying, ‘Lord, have patience with me, and I will repay you all!’
Moe iho la ua kauwa la, hoomaikai aku la ia ia, i aku la, E ka haku, e ahonui mai oe ia'u, a e uku aku au ia oe ia mea a pau loa.
27 The lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him and forgave him the debt.
Aloha mai la ka haku i ua kauwa la, kuu mai la ia ia, a kala mai la i kana aie.
28 “But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him one hundred denarii, and he grabbed him and took him by the throat, saying, ‘Pay me what you owe!’
Hele aku la ua kauwa la iwaho, a halawai me kekahi hoakauwa ona, i aie mai i kana i hookahi haneri denari, lalau aku la ia ia, a umi iho la i kona a-i, i aku la, E uku mai oe ia'u i kau mea i aie.
29 “So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will repay you!’
Moe iho la kona hoakauwa ma kona wawae, noi mai la ia ia, i mai la, E ahonui mai oe ia'u, a e uku aku au ia oe ia mea a pau loa.
30 He would not, but went and cast him into prison until he should pay back that which was due.
Aole ia i ae aku; aka, hele aku la ia, a hoolei aku la ia ia iloko o ka halepaahao, a pau loa ka aie i ka ukuia.
31 So when his fellow servants saw what was done, they were exceedingly sorry, and came and told their lord all that was done.
A ike ae la kona mau hoakauwa i ka mea ana i hana'i, minamina loa iho la lakou; a hele lakou, hai aku la i ko lakou haku i na mea a pau i hanaia.
32 Then his lord called him in and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me.
Alaila, kahea aku la kona haku ia ia, i aku la, E ke kauwa ino, ua kala aku no au i kau aie a pau, i kou noi ana mai ia'u;
33 Shouldn’t you also have had mercy on your fellow servant, even as I had mercy on you?’
Aole anei i pono nou ke aloha aku i kou hoakauwa, me a'u i aloha aku ai ia oe?
34 His lord was angry, and delivered him to the tormentors until he should pay all that was due to him.
Huhu aku la kona haku, a haawi aku la ia ia i ka poe kiai halepaahao, a pau loa ae la kana aie i ka ukuia.
35 So my heavenly Father will also do to you, if you don’t each forgive your brother from your hearts for his misdeeds.”
Pela hoi i ko'u Makua i ka lani e hana aku ai ia oukou, ina aole oukou a pau e kala aku me ko oukou naau i na hala o ko oukou poe hoahanau.
