Korineto I 1
1 O PAULO, i kohoia i lunaolelo na Iesu Kristo, no ka manao ana mai o ke Akua, o maua me Sosetene, kekahi hoahanau;
Paul, called to be an Apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God--and our brother Sosthenes:
2 Na ka ekalesia o ke Akua ma Korineto, na ka poe i hoomaemaeia iloko o Kristo Iesu, a i hooliloia i poe haipule, a na ka poe a pau ma na wahi a pau loa i hea aku i ka inoa o Iesu Kristo, i ko lakou Haku a me ko kakou.
To the Church of God in Corinth, men and women consecrated in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all in every place who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ-- their Lord as well as ours.
3 E alohaia mai oukou, a e maluhia hoi e ke Akua, e ko kakou Makua, a e ka Haku e Iesu Kristo.
May grace and peace be granted to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4 Ke aloha mau aku nei au i ko'u Akua, no oukou, no ka lokomaikai o ke Akua i haawiia mai ia oukou ma o Iesu Kristo la.
I thank my God continually on your behalf for the grace of God bestowed on you in Christ Jesus--
5 No ka mea, ua waiwai oukou ia ia i na mea a pau, i na olelo a pau, a me ka naauao i na mea a pau;
that you have been so richly blessed in Him, with readiness of speech and fulness of knowledge.
6 No ka hooiaio ana o ka olelo a Kristo iwaena o oukou;
Thus my testimony as to the Christ has been confirmed in your experience,
7 No ia mea, aole oukou i nele i kekahi haawina; e kali ana i ka hoike ana mai o ko kakou Haku, o Iesu Kristo:
so that there is no gift of God in which you consciously come short while patiently waiting for the reappearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
8 Nana no oukou e hooku paa, a hiki aku i ka hopena, i hewa ole oukou i ka la o ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo.
who will also keep you stedfast to the very End, so that you will be free from reproach on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 He Akua malama, ka mea i hea mai ia oukou, i poe hoa no kana Keiki, no Iesu Kristo, ko kakou Haku.
God is ever true to His promises, and it was by Him that you were, one and all, called into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ, our Lord.
10 Ke noi aku nei au ia oukou, e na hoahanau, ma ka inoa o ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo, i olelo oukou a pau i ka mea hookahi, i ole oukou e mokuahana; a i pili pu oukou me ka naau hookahi, a me ka lokahi o ka manao.
Now I entreat you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to cultivate a spirit of harmony--all of you--and that there be no divisions among you, but rather a perfect union through your having one mind and one judgement.
11 E na hoahanau o'u, ua haiia mai ia'u no oukou, na ka poe ohua o Keloe; ua kuee oukou.
For I have been distinctly informed, my brethren, about you by Chloe's people, that there are dissensions among you.
12 Ke hai aku nei au i keia, ua olelo ae kela mea keia mea o oukou, No Paulo wau; a no Apolo wau; a no Kepa wau; a no Kristo wau.
What I mean is that each of you is a partisan. One man says "I belong to Paul;" another "I belong to Apollos;" a third "I belong to Peter;" a fourth "I belong to Christ."
13 Ua maheleia anei o Kristo? I kaulia anei o Paulo ma ke kea no oukou? Ua bapetizoia anei oukou iloko o ka inoa o Paulo?
Is the Christ in fragments? Is it Paul who was crucified on your behalf? Or were you baptized to be Paul's adherents?
14 Ke aloba aku nei au i ke Akua no ka mea, aole au i bapetizo aku i kekahi mea o oukou, o Kerisepo laua o Gaio wale no:
I thank God that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius--
15 O olelo paha auanei kekahi, ua bapetizo aku au iloko o ko'u inoa iho.
for fear people should say that you were baptized to be my adherents.
16 Ua bapetizo no hoi au i ko ka hale o Setepana; a o na mea e, aole au i ike i ko'u bapetizo ana i kekahi mea e.
I did, however, baptize Stephanas' household also: but I do not think that I baptized any one else.
17 Aole i hoouna mai o Kristo ia'u e bapetizo, aka, e hai i ka euanelio; aole ma ke akamai i ka olelo, o hooliloia ke kea o Kristo i mea ole.
Christ did not send me to baptize, but to proclaim the Good News; and not in merely wise words--lest the Cross of Christ should be deprived of its power.
18 No ka mea, o ka olelo no ke kea, he mea lapuwale ia i ka poe make; aka, ia kakou, i ka poe ola, oia ka mana o ke Akua.
For the Message of the Cross is foolishness to those who are on the way to perdition, but it is the power of God to those whom He is saving.
19 No ka mea, ua palapalaia mai, E hoopau au i ke akamai o ka poe akamai, a e hoolilo au i ka naauao o ka poe naauao i mea ole.
For so it stands written, "I will exhibit the nothingness of the wisdom of the wise, and the intelligence of the intelligent I will bring to nought."
20 Auhea ka mea akamai? Auhea ke kakaolelo? Auhea ka mea hoopaapaa o keia ao? Aole anei i hoolilo ke Akua i ke akamai o keia ao, i mea lapuwale? (aiōn g165)
Where is your wise man? Where your expounder of the Law? Where your investigator of the questions of this present age? Has not God shown the world's wisdom to be utter foolishness? (aiōn g165)
21 No ka mea, i ke akamai o ke Akua, aole i ike aku ko ke ao nei i ke Akua, ma ko lakou naauao ana; alaila manao iho la ke Akua, ma ka lapuwale o ka haiolelo ana, e hoola i ka poe manaoio.
For after the world by its wisdom--as God in His wisdom had ordained--had failed to gain the knowledge of God, God was pleased, by the apparent foolishness of the Message which we preach, to save those who accepted it.
22 Ke noi mai nei na Iodaio i hoailona; ke imi mai nei hoi na Helene i ke akamai:
Seeing that Jews demand miracles, and Greeks go in search of wisdom,
23 Aka, ke hai aku nei makou ia Kristo i kaulia ma ke kea, he mea hina no na Iudaio, a he mea lapuwale no na Helene;
while we proclaim a Christ who has been crucified--to the Jews a stumbling-block, to Gentiles foolishness,
24 Aka, i ka poe i heaia mai, i na Iudaio a me na Helene, o Kristo no ka mana o ke Akua a me ke akamai o ke Akua.
but to those who have received the Call, whether Jews or Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
25 No ka mea, o ka lapuwale o ke Akua, ua oi aku ia mamua o ke akamai o kanaka; a o ka nawaliwali o ke Akua mamua o ka ikaika o kanaka.
Because that which the world deems foolish in God is wiser than men's wisdom, and that which it deems feeble in God is mightier than men's might.
26 E na hoahanau, ua ike oukou i ko oukou heaia mai; aole koho nui ia ka poe akamai ma ke kino, aole i nui ka poe maiau, aole i nui na'lii:
For consider, brethren, God's call to you. Not many who are wise with merely human wisdom, not many of position and influence, not many of noble birth have been called.
27 Aka, ua koho mai ke Akua i ka poe naaupo o keia ao, i hoohilahila ia i ka poe akamai: ua koho mai hoi ke Akua i ka poe nawaliwali o keia ao, i hoohilahila ia i ka poe ikaika:
But God has chosen the things which the world regards as foolish, in order to put its wise men to shame; and God has chosen the things which the world regards as destitute of influence, in order to put its powerful things to shame;
28 A me ke kuaaina hoi ka ke Akua i koho mai ai a me ka mea hoowahawahaia, a me na mea i ike ole ia i anai aku oia i na mea i ikeia;
and the things which the world regards as base, and those which it sets utterly at nought--things that have no existence--God has chosen in order to reduce to nothing things that do exist;
29 I ole o hookiekie kekahi kanaka imua i ke alo o ke Akua.
to prevent any mortal man from boasting in the presence of God.
30 Nana mai no ko oukou iloko o Kristo Iesu, o ka mea i lilo no kakou i akamai, i mea hoopono, i mea hoomaemae, a i mea hoolapanai mai ke Akua mai.
But you--and it is all God's doing--are in Christ Jesus: He has become for us a wisdom which is from God, consisting of righteousness and sanctification and deliverance;
31 E like me ka palapala ana mai, O ka mea kaena, e kaena oia ma ka Haku.
in order that it may be as Scripture says, "He who boasts--let his boast be in the Lord."
