Petero I 5
1 O WAU o kekahi luna kahiko, a he mea hoike i ko Iesu eha ana, a he hoaaloha pu no ka nani e hiki mai ana, ke nonoi aku nei au i na luna kahiko o oukou.
Elders, therefore, among you, I exhort—[I] who am their co-elder and a witness of the sufferings of the Christ, who also, in the glory about to be revealed, have, a share; —
2 E hanai oukou i ka poe o ke Akua iwaena o oukou, e kiai ana, aole no ka hookoiia mai, no ka makemake no; aole hoi no ka puni waiwai, aka, no ka inanao pono.
Shepherd the beloved flock of God, which is among you, —not by compulsion, but by choice, nor yet for base gain, but of a ready mind, —
3 Mai hana hoi, me he poe alii la maluna o ka ekalesia, aka, me he poe kumu la, i hoomahuiia'i e kela poe.
Nor yet as lording it over the allotted portions, but becoming, ensamples, to the beloved flock;
4 A hiki i ka wa e hoikeia mai ai ke kahuhipa nui, alaila e loaa ia oukou ka lei nani loa, aole loa e mae.
And, when the Chief Shepherd is manifested, ye shall bear away, the unfading crown of glory.
5 O oukou, e ka poe opiopio, e noho pono oukou malalo o na luna kahiko. O oukou hoi a pau, e noho pono oukou, kekahi malalo iho o kekahi, a e hoouhiia oukou i ka manao hoohaahaa; no ka mea, ua ku e ke Akua i ka poe hookiekie, aka, ke lokomaikai nei oia i ka poe hoohaahaa.
In like manner, ye younger men—submit yourselves unto elders; —All, however, one towards another, gird on humility; because, God, against the haughty, arrayeth himself, whereas, unto the lowly, he giveth favour.
6 Nolaila, e hoohaahaa oukou ia oukou iho malalo iho o ka lima mana o ke Akua, i hookiekie ae oia ia oukou i ka wa pono.
Be made lowly, therefore, under the strong hand of God, that he may lift, you, up in due time, —
7 E waiho aku i ko oukou kaumaha a pau maluna ona; no ka mea, ke manao nei oia ia oukou.
All your anxiety, casting upon him, because he careth for you.
8 E kuoo, a e makaala; no ka mea, e like me ka liona uwo, pela no e holoholo nei ko oukou enemi, o ka diabolo, e imi ana i kana mea e ale ai.
Be sober! be watchful! Your slanderous adversary, as a roaring lion, is walking about—seeking to devour:
9 E pale aku oukou ia ia, me ke kupaa ma ka manaoio, me ka ike pono hoi, ua hooluhi pu ia ko oukou poe hoahanau, e noho ana i ke ao nei, ia luhi hookahi no.
Whom resist, steadfast in your faith, knowing that, the same sufferings, in your brotherhood that is in the world, are being accomplished.
10 Aka, o ke Akua, nana mai ka lokomaikai a pau, o ka mea i hea mai ai ia kakou nei i ka nani mau loa, ma o Kristo Iesu la, mahope o ko oukou eha pakole ana, nana no e hoolilo ia oukou i hemolele loa, a e hookumu hoi, a e hooikaika, a e hookupaa ia oukou. (aiōnios g166)
Howbeit, the God of all favour—who hath called you unto his age-abiding glory in Christ—when, for a little, ye have suffered, Himself, will adjust, confirm, strengthen: — (aiōnios g166)
Unto him, be the dominion, unto the ages. Amen! (aiōn g165)
12 Ma o Silevano, he hoahanau pono o oukou i ko'u manao, ua palapala pokole aku au ia oukou, me ka hooikaika aku, a me ka hoike aku i ka lokomaikai oiaio o ke Akua, kahi a oukou e ku nei.
By Silvanus, the faithful brother, as I account him, have I briefly written, unto you, exhorting and adding testimony—that, this, is the true favour of God—within which, stand ye fast!
13 Ke aloha aku nei ka poe i wae pu ia me oukou ma Babulona nei; a o ka'u keiki hoi o Mareko.
She who, in Babylon, is co-elect, and Mark my son, salute you:
14 E aloha oukou i kekahi i kekahi, me ka honi aloha. E maluhia oukou a pau loa, ka poe iloko o Kristo Iesu. Amene.
Salute ye one another with a kiss of love. Peace unto you all who are in Christ.
