Tesalonike I 1

1 NA Paulo aku, a me Silevano, a me Timoteo, i ka ekalesia o ko Tesalonike, iloko o ke Akua ka Makua, a me ka Haku Iesu Kristo, no oukou ke aloha a me ka pomaikai, mai ke Akua mai, o ko kakou Makua a me ka Haku Iesu Kristo.

PAULOS, and Sylvanos, and Timotheos, to the church of the Thesalonikoyee which (is) in Aloha the Father, and in our Lord Jeshu Meshiha. Grace be with you and peace.

2 Ke hoomaikai mau aku nei makou i ke Akua no oukou a pau, e hoohiki ana ia oukou i ka makou pule;

We give thanks to Aloha at all time for you all and are mindful of you in our prayers constantly,

3 E manao mau aku ana i ka hana a ka manaoio o oukou, a me ka hooikaika o ke aloha, a me ke ahonui o ka manaolana i ko kakou Haku, ia Iesu Kristo, imua o ke alo o ke Akua ko kakou Makua:

and remember before Aloha the Father the works of your faith, and the labour of your love, and the perseverance of your hope, which is in our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

4 E ike aku ana hoi, e na hoahanau aloha, i ko oukou waeia mai e ke Akua.

For we know your election, my brethren, beloved of Aloha,

5 No ka mea, aole ma ka olelo wale no i hiki aku ai ka makou euanelio io oukou la, aka, ma ka mana no hoi, a me ka Uhane Hemolele, a me ka hooiaio loa; na ike hoi oukou i ke ano o ko makou noho ana iwaena o oukou, no oukou.

because our preaching was not in words only with you, but with power, and with the Spirit of Holiness, and with the persuasion of truth. Also you know how we were among you, on account of you;

6 A ua hahai mai oukou mamuli o makou a me ka Haku, ua apo mai oukou i ka olelo me ka ehaeha nui, a me ka olioli no ka Uhane Hemolele:

and you became imitators of us and of our Lord, and you received the word in great affliction, and with the joy of the Spirit of Holiness,

7 Pela i lilo ai oukou i mau alakai no ka poe manaoio a pau i Makedonia a me Akaia.

and became an example to all the believers who are in Makedunia and in Akaia.

8 No ka mea, mai o oukou aku i pae aku ai ka olelo a ka Haku, aole ma Makedonia a me Akaia wale no, aka, ma ia wahi aku a ia wahi aku, i hoolahaia ae ai ko oukou paulele ana i ke Akua, i ole ai e pono ia makou ke hai hou aku.

For from you was made to be heard the word of our Lord, not only in Makedunia and in Akaia, but in every place your faith which is in Aloha was made to be heard, so that we have no need to say of you any thing.

9 No ka mea, na lakou no i hoike mai no kakou, i ke ano o ko makou komo ana iwaena o oukou, a me ko oukou huli ana i ke Akua, mai na'kua kii mai e malama aku i ke Akua ola oiaio;

For they learned what an entrance we had unto you, and how you turned to Aloha, from the fear of idols, to worship Aloha the living and the true;

10 A e kali hoi i kana Keiki, mai ka lani mai, ana i hoala mai ai, mai ka make mai, ia Iesu, nana kakou e hoopakele i ka inaina e kau mai ana.

awaiting his Son from heaven, Jeshu himself, whom he raised from among the dead, and who delivered us from the wrath that cometh.
