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, Apostle of Jesus Christ, to the newly-arrived elect of the dispersion in 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.
in accord with the foreknowledge of God the Father, in the sanctification of the Spirit, with the obedience and the sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: May grace and peace be multiplied for you.
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 great mercy has regenerated us into a living hope, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead:
4 I loaa mai ia kakou ka hooilina pau ole, pelapela ole, mae ole, ua hoana e ia ma ka lani no kakou;
unto an incorruptible and undefiled and unfading inheritance, which is reserved for you in heaven.
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.
By the power of God, you are guarded through faith for a salvation which is ready to be revealed in the end 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 this, you should exult, if now, for a brief time, it is necessary to be made sorrowful by various trials,
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:
so that the testing of your faith, which is much more precious than gold tested by fire, may be found in praise and glory and honor 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;
For though you have not seen him, you love him. In him also, though you do not see him, you now believe. And in believing, you shall exult with an inexpressible and glorious joy,
9 E loaa mai ana ka hope o ko oukou manaoio, o ke ola o ko oukou poe uhane.
returning with the goal of your faith, the salvation of 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.
About this salvation, the prophets inquired and diligently searched, those who prophesied about the future grace in you,
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 as to what type of condition was signified to them by the Spirit of Christ, when foretelling those sufferings that are in Christ, as well as the subsequent glories.
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 them, it was revealed that they were ministering, not for themselves, but for you those things which have now been announced to you through those who have preached the Gospel to you, through the Holy Spirit, who was sent down from heaven to the One upon whom the Angels desire to gaze.
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;
For this reason, gird the waist of your mind, be sober, and hope perfectly in the grace that is offered to you in 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.
Be like sons of obedience, not conforming to the desires of your former 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 in accord with him who has called you: the Holy One. And in every behavior, you yourself must be holy,
16 No ka mea, na palapalaia mai, E hemolele oukou; no ka mea, owau ka hemolele.
for it is written: “You shall be 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 if you invoke as Father him who, without showing favoritism to persons, judges according to each one’s work, then act in fear during the time of your sojourning here.
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;
For you know that it was not with corruptible gold or silver that you were redeemed away from your useless behavior in the traditions of your fathers,
19 Aka, me ke koko waiwai io o Kristo, me ko ke keikihipa kina ole a me ka hala ole:
but it was with the precious blood of Christ, an immaculate and undefiled lamb,
20 Ua boonohoia oia mamua o ka hookumu ana o ke ao nei; aka, ua hoikeia mai i keia wa hope no oukou,
foreknown, certainly, before the foundation of the world, and made manifest in these latter times for your sake.
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.
Through him, you have been faithful to God, who raised him up from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope would 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.
So chastise your souls with the obedience of charity, in fraternal love, and love one another from a simple heart, attentively.
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)
For you have been born again, not from corruptible seed, but from what is incorruptible, from the Word of God, living and remaining for all eternity. (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 like the grass and all its glory is like the flower of the grass. The grass withers and its flower falls away.
