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.
I am exhorting the elders among you, I, who am a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and am also one who will share in the glory that will be revealed:
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.
Be shepherds of God's flock that is under your care, serving as overseers—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God would have you serve—not for shameful profit but eagerly.
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.
Do not act as a master over the people who are in your care. Instead, be an example to the 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.
Then when the Chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive an 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 the same way, you younger men, submit to the older men. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility and serve one another. For God resists the proud, but he gives grace to the humble.
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.
Therefore humble yourselves under God's mighty hand so 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.
Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares 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 adversary, the devil, is stalking around like a roaring lion, looking for someone 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.
Stand against him. Be strong in your faith. You know that your community of believers that is in the world is enduring the same sufferings.
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)
After you suffer for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will perfect you, establish you, and strengthen you. (aiōnios g166)
To him be the dominion forever and ever. 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.
I regard Silvanus as a faithful brother, and I have written to you briefly through him. I am exhorting you and I am testifying to you that what I have written is the true grace of God. Stand in it.
13 Ke aloha aku nei ka poe i wae pu ia me oukou ma Babulona nei; a o ka'u keiki hoi o Mareko.
The woman who is in Babylon, who is chosen together with you, greets you. Also Mark, my son, greets 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.
Greet one another with a kiss of love. May peace be to you all who are in Christ.
