Petero I 1
1 O PETERO, kekahi lunaolelo no Iesu Kristo, i ka poe i puehu liilii, a e noho malihini ana hoi ma Poneto, a ma Galatia, a ma Kapadokia, a ma Asia, a ma Bitunia;
Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the sojourners that are dispersed through Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
2 Ma ka ike mua ana o ke Akua, ka Makua, ma o ka huikala ana o ka Uhane, ua waeia mai oukou, i poe hoolohe, a i poe e kapipiia i ke koko o Iesu Kristo; i nui ko oukou alohaia mai, a me ka maluhia hoi.
elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, by the sanctification of the Spirit, in order to obedience, and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: grace be to you, and peace be multiplied.
3 E hoomaikaiia'ku ke Akua, ka Makua o ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo, no kona lokomaikai nui iho, nana no i hoohanau mai ia kakou, i lana mau loa ai ka manao, ma ke alahouana o Iesu Kristo, mai ka make mai;
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his abundant mercy, has, by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, regenerated us for a living hope
4 I loaa mai ia kakou ka hooilina pau ole, pelapela ole, mae ole, ua hoana e ia ma ka lani no kakou;
in respect to an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fades not away, reserved in heaven for us,
5 Ka poe i malamaia mai e ka mana o ke Akua, ma ka manaoio, i loaa mai ke ola i hoomakaukauia no ka hoikeia mai i ka wa mahope.
who are kept secure by the power of God through faith, to a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time:
6 Malaila no oukou e hauoli nui nei, oiai nae ua kaumaha oukou i keia wa pokole, no ka hoao pinepine ia mai, i mea e pono ai;
in which you rejoice, though now for a little while, since it is needful, you are in sorrow under various temptations;
7 I lilo hoi ka hoao ana o ko oukou manaoio, ka mea i oi aku ka maikai mamua o ke gula pau wale, i hoaoia i ke ahi, i mea e mahaloia'i, a e hoomaikaiia'i, a e hoonani ia'i i ka wa e ikea mai ai o Iesu Kristo:
that your faith, when proved, being much more precious than gold, which perishes though it be tried by fire, may be found to be for praise and honor and glory, at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
8 Ka mea a oukou i ike maka ole ai, a ua makemake no nae; a, me ka ike ole aku ia ia, ua manaoio aku no nae oukou ia ia me ka hauoli i ka olioli nani pau ole i ka haiia aku;
whom, though you have not seen him, yet you love; on whom not now looking, but believing, you rejoice with joy unspeakable, and full of glory,
9 E loaa mai ana ka hope o ko oukou manaoio, o ke ola o ko oukou poe uhane.
receiving the end of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
10 Oia ke ola a na kaula i huli ai, me ka imi ikaika, o ka poe i wanana mai i ka pono e hiki mai ana io oukou nei.
Concerning which salvation the prophets that prophesied of the grace that should be for you, did inquire, and search diligently,
11 Ua imi nui no lakou i ka mea a me ka manawa a ka Uhane o Kristo i hai mai ai iloko o lakou, i kona hoike mua ana mai i ka hoinoia o Kristo, a me ka hoonaniia, mahope o keia mau mea.
inquiring what things, and what time, the Spirit of Christ that was in them did signify, when it testified, beforehand, the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that should follow them;
12 Ua hoikeia mai ia lakou, aole nae na lakou, na kakou, na mea a lakou i ao mai ai; oia hoi na mea i haiia'ku nei ia oukou, e ka poe hai aku i ka euanelio ia oukou, me ka Uhane Hemolele i hoounaia mai, mai ka lani mai: oia ka na anela i makemake ai e ike iho.
to whom it was revealed, that, not for themselves, but for us, they ministered the things that are now preached to you by those who have made known to you the gospel, through the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven; into which things angels desire to look.
13 No ia mea, e kaei oukou i ka puhaka o ko oukou naau, e kuoo, a e hoomau i ka lana ana o ka manao, no ke alohaia mai i ka wa e hoikea mai ai o Iesu Kristo;
Wherefore, gird up the loins of your mind; be watchful, and hope constantly for the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ:
14 I like hoi oukou me na keiki hoolohe, aole e hoolike ana ia oukou iho me na kuko kahiko, i ko oukou wa e naaupo ana.
as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the desires which you formerly had in your ignorance;
15 Aka, e like me ka hemolele o ka mea nana oukou i koho mai, pela oukou e hemolele ai, i ko oukou noho ana a pau:
but as he who has called you is holy, so be you holy in all your behavior:
16 No ka mea, na palapalaia mai, E hemolele oukou; no ka mea, owau ka hemolele.
because it is written, Be you holy, for I am holy.
17 Ina oukou e hea aku i ka Makua, i ka mea i hoomaopopo me ka ewaewa ole, i kela kanaka, i keia kanaka, ma ke ano o kana hana ana, e noho oukou me ka makau, i ko oukou noho malihini ana.
And since you call on the Father, who, without respect of persons, judges according to every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning in fear:
18 Ua ike no hoi oukou, aole me na mea popo wale e like me ke kala a me ke gula, ua kuaiia oukou mai ko oukou noho lapuwale ana, mamuli o na mooolelo a ko oukou kupuna mai;
because you know that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver or gold, from your vain mode of life received by tradition from your fathers,
19 Aka, me ke koko waiwai io o Kristo, me ko ke keikihipa kina ole a me ka hala ole:
but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without spot and blemish,
20 Ua boonohoia oia mamua o ka hookumu ana o ke ao nei; aka, ua hoikeia mai i keia wa hope no oukou,
who was indeed foreordained before the foundation of the world, but manifested in these last times for you,
21 Ma ona la oukou i manaoio aku ai i ke Akua, nana i hoala mai ia ia mai ka make mai, a i hoonani aku ia ia; i manaoio ai, a i lana ai hoi ko oukou manao i ke Akua.
who through him do believe in God who raised him from the dead, and gave him glory, that your faith and hope might be in God.
22 I ka malama ana i ka oiaio, ua hoomaemae oukou i ko oukou naau, na ka Uhane mai, i ke aloha hookamani ole i na hoahanau; nolaila, ea, e aloha ikaika loa aku oukou i kekahi i kekahi me ka naau maemae.
Having purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit, to unfeigned love of the brethren, love one another with a pure heart fervently,
23 Ua hanau hou ia mai oukou, aole hoi na ka hua e pala wale ana, aka, na ka hua pala ole, ma ka olelo a ke Akua ola, ka mea e mau loa ana. (aiōn g165)
having been begotten again, not with corruptible seed, but with incorruptible, by the word of God, which lives and abides forever. (aiōn g165)
24 No ka mea, ua like wale no me ka mauu na kanaka a pau, a o kona nani a pau, ua like me ka pua o ka mauu. E maloo ana no ka mauu. a haule wale iho no hoi kona pua;
For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass; the grass withers, and its flower fails away:
