Timoteo I 6
1 E PONO i na kauwa a pau malalo iho o ka auamo, ke manao i ko lakou mau haku, he pono ke hoomaikai nui ia'ku, i ole ai e hoino wale ia ka inoa o ke Akua a me kana olelo.
All who are under the yoke of slavery should regard their masters as fully worthy of honor, so that God’s name and our teaching will not be discredited.
2 A o ka poe nona na haku manaoio, mai hoowahawaha aku lakou no ko lakou hoahanau ana; aka, e lawelawe aku no lakou, no ka mea, he poe paulele lakou a he poe alohaia e lawe pu ana i ka pono. Ma ia mau mea e ao aku ai oe me ka hooikaika aku.
Those who have believing masters should not show disrespect because they are brothers, but should serve them all the more, since those receiving their good service are beloved believers. Teach and encourage these principles.
3 A ina he okoa ka kekahi ao ana aku, me ka ae ole mai i na huaolelo pono, i na olelo a ko kakou Haku a Iesn Kristo, a me ke ao ana aku mamuli o ka manao maikai i ke Akua;
If anyone teaches another doctrine and disagrees with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and with godly teaching,
4 He hookano ia, he naaupo loa, a e kuko wale ana i na ninau a me na huaolelo hooakamai, kahi e ulu ai ka huwa, ka paio, ka nuku, ka hoohuoi ino,
he is conceited and understands nothing. Instead, he has an unhealthy interest in controversies and semantics, out of which come envy, strife, abusive talk, evil suspicions,
5 A me ka hoopaapaa huhu ana a na kanaka naau ino, me ka lako ole i ka olelo oiaio, e manao ana hoi, o ka waiwai ka manao i ke Akua; e hoookoa oe ia oe iho ia lakou.
and constant friction between men of depraved mind who are devoid of the truth. These men regard godliness as a means of gain.
6 Aka, o ka manao i ke Akua, me ka oluolu io, oia ka waiwai nui.
Of course, godliness with contentment is great gain.
7 No ka mea, aohe a kakou mea i lawe mai ai iloko o keia ao, he oiaio hoi aohe a kakou mea e hiki ke lawe pu aku iwaho.
For we brought nothing into the world, so we cannot carry anything out of it.
8 A ina, ia kakou ka ai a me ke kapa, malaila kakou e oluolu ai.
But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with these.
9 Aka, o ka poe e makemake ana i ka waiwai nui, ua haule lakou iloko o ka hoowalewaleia a me ka pahele, a iloko o kela kuko lapuwale keia kuko lapuwale e pono ole ai, na mea e paholo ai na kanaka i ka poino, a me ka make.
Those who want to be rich, however, fall into temptation and become ensnared by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction.
10 No ka mea, o ka puni kala o ka mole no ia o ka hewa a pau; ua kuko nui ia ia e kekahi poe, a ua haalele lakou i ka manaoio, a ua houhou lakou ia lakou iho i na ehaeha he nui.
For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. By craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.
11 Aka, o oe, e ke kanaka o ke Akua, e haalele ia mau mea; a e hahai mamuli o ka pono, o ka manao i ke Akua, o ka manaoio, o ke aloha, o ke ahonui, a me ke akahai.
But you, O man of God, flee from these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.
12 E paio aku i ka paio maikai o ka manaoio, e hoopaa aku i ke ola mau loa, i kou mea i kohoia mai ai, a e hooia aku ai i ka hooiaio maikai imua o ke alo o na hoike he lehulehu. (aiōnios g166)
Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made the good confession before many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
13 Ke kauoha aku nei au ia oe imua i ke alo o ke Akua, ka mea i hoola i na mea a pau, a o Kristo Iesu hoi, ka mea i hoike imua o Ponetio Pilato i ka hooiaio maikai;
I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who made the good confession in His testimony before Pontius Pilate:
14 E malama oe i keia kauoha i kina ole, me ka hala ole, a hiki wale aku i ka ikea ana mai o ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo;
Keep this commandment without stain or reproach until the appearance of our Lord Jesus Christ,
15 I ka mea i na manawa ona iho, o hoike mai ai oia, o ka Moi pomaikai hookahi, o ke Alii o na alii, o ka Haku o na haku;
which the blessed and only Sovereign One—the King of kings and Lord of lords—will bring about in His own time.
16 Nona wale no ka make ole, e noho mau ana iloko o ka malamalama kahi e hiki ole aku ai ke kanaka; aole ikeia e ke kanaka, aole hoi e hiki ia ia ke nana aku; ia ia mau loa hoi ka mahalo a me ka mana. Amene. (aiōnios g166)
He alone is immortal and dwells in unapproachable light. No one has ever seen Him, nor can anyone see Him. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen. (aiōnios g166)
17 E kauoha aku oe i ka poe waiwai i keia ao, mai hookiekie ko lakou naau, mai hilinai i ka waiwai oiaio ole, aka, i ke Akua ola, nana na mea a pau i haawi lokomaikai mai ia kakou e oluolu ai. (aiōn g165)
Instruct those who are rich in the present age not to be conceited and not to put their hope in the uncertainty of wealth, but in God, who richly provides all things for us to enjoy. (aiōn g165)
18 E hana maikai hoi lakou, i lako hoi lakou i na hana maikai, i makaukau hoi i ka haawi wale aku me ka lokomaikai;
Instruct them to do good, to be rich in good works, and to be generous and ready to share,
19 E hoahu ana i kumu maikai na lakou iho, no ka manawa e hiki mai ana, i paa aku ai lakou i ke ola mau loa.
treasuring up for themselves a firm foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is truly life.
20 E Timoteo, e malama oe i ka mea i kauohaia'ku ia oe, e pale ana i ka wawa lapuwale, a me ke ku ee ana o ka mea i kapa hewa ia he naauao:
O Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you. Avoid irreverent, empty chatter and the opposing arguments of so-called “knowledge,”
21 O ka mea a kekahi poe i hooia ai, ua haalele hoi i ka manaoio. Ia oe ke alohaia mai. Amene.
which some have professed and thus swerved away from the faith. Grace be with you all.
