Ioane I 3
1 EIA hoi, manomano ke aloha a ka Makua i haawi mai ai ia kakou, i kapaia mai ai kakou he poe keiki na ke Akua; no ia mea, aole i ike mai ko ke ao nei ia kakou, no ka mea, aole lakou i ike ia ia.
Behold, what manner of love, the Father hath bestowed upon us—that, children of God, we should be called, —and such we are! Therefore, the world understandeth us not, because it understood not him.
2 E na punahele, ano la, he poe keiki kakou na ke Akua, aka, o ko kakou ano mahope aku, aole ikea ia; aka, ke ike nei kakou, a i kona wa e ikea mai ai, e like auanei kakou me ia: no ka mea, e ike kakou ia ia ma kona ano maoli.
Beloved! now, are we, children of God; and, not yet, hath it been made manifest, what we shall be, —We know that, if it should be made manifest, like unto him, shall we be, because we shall see him, just as he is.
3 O ka mea i loaa ia ia keia manaolana ma ona la, oia ke hoomaemae ia ia iho e like me ko ia la maemae ana.
And, whosoever hath this hope on him, is purifying himself, just as, He, is pure.
4 O ka mea e hana aku ana i ka hewa, oia ka mea e haihai ana i ke kanawai; a o ka hewa, oia no ke ku e ana i ke kanawai.
Whosoever is committing sin, lawlessness also, is committing, and, sin, is, lawlessness;
5 Ua ike no oukou, ua hoikea mai oia, i lawe ae ia i ko kakou hewa: aole hewa iloko ona.
And ye know, that, He, was made manifest—in order that, our sins, he should take away, and, sin, in him, is there none.
6 O ka mea e noho ana iloko ona, aole ia e hana hewa. O ka mea e hana i ka hewa, aole ia i nana ae ia ia, aole no hoi i ike ia ia.
Whosoever, in him, doth abide, is not sinning: whosoever is sinning, hath not seen him, and doth not understand him.
7 E na pokii, e malama i hoopunipuni ole kekahi ia oukou: o ka mea i hana i ka pono, oia ka i pono, e like me ko ia la pono ana.
Dear children! Let, no one, lead you astray! He that is doing righteousness, is, righteous, just as, He, is righteous:
8 O ka mea e hana ana i ka hewa, no ka diabolo no ia; no ka mea, ua hana hewa mau ka diabolo, mai kinohi mai. No ia mea, ua hoikea mai ke Keiki a ke Akua, i hokae aku ai oia i ka ka diabolo hana ana.
He that is committing sin, is, of the adversary, because, from the beginning, the adversary is sinning. To this end, was the Son of God made manifest, in order that he might undo the works of the adversary.
9 O ka mea i hoohanauia mai e ke Akua, aole ia e hana hewa; no ka mea, ke noho mau nei kona hua iloko ona; aole e hiki ia ia ke hana hewa aku, no ka mea, ua hoohanauia mai no ia e ke Akua.
Whosoever hath been born of God, is not committing, sin, because, a seed of him, within him, abideth; and he cannot be committing sin, because, of God, hath he been born.
10 Malaila no i maopopo ai nakeiki a ke Akua, a me ka poe keiki na ka diabolo. O ka mea hana ole ma ka pono, aole ia na ke Akua, aole hoi ka mea aloha ole i kona hoahanau.
Herein, are, manifest, the children of God, and the children of the adversary: Whoever is not doing righteousness, is not of God, nor yet he that is not loving his brother.
11 No ka mea, eia no ka olelo a oukou i lohe ai mai kinohi mai, e aloha aku kakou i kekahi i kekahi.
Because, this, is the message which ye have heard from the beginning—that we should be loving one another, —
12 Aole like me Kaina, na ka mea ino no oia, a pepehi iho la ia i kona kaikaina a make. No ke aha la kela i pepehi ai ia ia? no ka mea, ua hewa kana hana iho, a na pono hoi ka kona kaikaina.
Not just as, Cain, was, of the wicked one, and slew his brother! And, for what cause, slew he him? Because, his works, were, wicked, whereas, those of his brother, were, righteous.
13 Mai kahaha oukou, e na hoahanau o'u, ke hoomaau mai ko ke ao nei ia oukou.
Be not marveling, brethren, if, the world, is hating you:
14 Ke ike nei kakou, ua lilo ae kakou mai ka make ae i ke ola, no ka mea, ke aloha aku nei kakou i na hoahanau, O ka mea e aloha ole ana i kona hoahauau, ke noho nei oia ma ka make.
We, know, that we have passed over out of death into life, because we love the brethren: he that loveth not, abideth in death.
15 O ka mea e hoomaau ana i kona hoahanau, he mea pepehi kanaka ia: ua ike no oukou o ka mea pepehi kanaka, aole ke ola mau loa e noho ana iloko ona. (aiōnios g166)
Whosoever is hating his brother, is, a murderer; and ye know that, no murderer, hath life age-during, within him abiding. (aiōnios g166)
16 No ia mea, ua ike kakou i ke aloha, no ka mea, ua waiho iho la oia i kona ola no kakou; a he mea pono no hoi ia kakou, ke waiho ae i ko kakou ola no ka poe hoahanau.
Hereby, have we come to understand love: in that, He, for us, his life laid down; and, we, ought, for the brethren, our lives to lay down.
17 O ka mea i loaa ia ia ka waiwai o keia ao, a ike ae la i ka nele o kona hoahanau, a papani ae i kona naau ia ia, pehea la ke aloha o ke Akua e noho ai iloko ona?
But, whoso hath this world’s goods, and beholdeth his brother having, need, and shutteth up his tender affections from him, how, is, the love of God, abiding in him?
18 E na pokii o'u, mai aloha kakou ma ka waha, aole hoi ma ke alelo wale no; aka, ma ka hana ana a me ka oiaio.
Dear children! Let us not be loving in word, nor yet with the tongue, but in deed and truth.
19 Ma keia mea e ike ai kakou, no ka oiaio kakou, a e hooiaio aku kakou i ko kakou mau naau imua ona.
Hereby, shall we get to know, that, of the truth, we are, and, before him, shall persuade our heart;
20 No ka mea, ina e hoohewa mai ko kakou naau ia kakou iho, ua oi aku ke Akua i ko kakou naau, a ua ike oia i na mea a pau.
Because, if our own heart condemn us, greater, is God, than our heart, and perceiveth all things.
21 E na punahele, ina e hoohewa ole mai ko kakou naau ia kakou iho, alaila ua loaa ia kakou ka wiwo ole imua o ke Akua.
Beloved! if our heart be not condemning us, boldness, have we, towards God;
22 O ka mea a kakou e noi aku ai, e loaa no ia kakou nona mai, no ka mea, ke malama nei kakou i kana mau kauoha, a ke hana nei no hoi kakou imua ona i kona mea e makemake ai.
And, whatsoever we are asking, we are receiving from him, because, his commandments, are we keeping, and, the things that are pleasing before him, are we doing.
23 Eia no kana kauoha mai, e manaoio aku kakou i ka inoa o kana Keiki o Iesu Kristo, a e aloha kekahi i kekahi, e like me ke kauoha ana i haawi mai ai ia kakou.
And, this, is his commandment, —that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and be loving one another—just as he gave a commandment unto us.
24 O ka mea e malama aku ana i kana mau kauoha, ua noho no ia iloko ona; a ua noho mai no hoi kela iloko ona. Nolaila hoi ke ike nei kakou, ke noho mai nei oia iloko o kakou, ma ka Uhane ana i haawi mai ai no kakou.
And, he that keepeth his commandments, in him, abideth, and, he, in him. And, hereby, perceive we, that he abideth in us, by reason of the Spirit which, unto us, he hath given.
