< Timoteo I 1 >

1 NA Paulo ka lunaolelo a Iesu Kristo, ma ke kauoha ana mai o ke Akua, ko kakou Ola, a o ka Haku o Iesu Kristo, ko kakou mauaolana;
Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God our Saviour and Christ Jesus our hope:
2 Ia Timoteo i ko keiki ponoi ma ka manaoio; ke aloha, ke ahonui, a me ka maluhia, mai ke Akua mai o ko kakou Makua, a me Iesu Kristo ko kakou Haku.
To Timothy, my own true son in the faith. May grace, mercy and peace be granted to you from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 Me a'u i nonoi aku ai ia oe e noho oe ma Epeso, i kuu hele ana ku i Makedonia, i kauoha oe i kekahi poe, i ao ole aku lakou i ka olelo e,
When I was on my journey to Macedonia I begged you to remain on in Ephesus that you might remonstrate with certain persons because of their erroneous teaching
4 Aole hoi e malama i na olelo hakuwaleia, a me na kuauhau hope ole, ona mea i hoomahuahua'e i ka hoopaapaa ana, aole i ka pono o ke Akua, ma ka manao oiaio.
and the attention they bestow on mere fables and endless pedigrees, such as lead to controversy rather than to a true stewardship for God, which only exists where there is faith. And I make the same request now.
5 O ka hope o ke kauoha, o ke aloha ia, mai loko mai o ka naau maemae, a me ka manao maikai, a me ka paulele oiaio.
But the end sought to be secured by exhortation is the love which springs from a pure heart, a clear conscience and a sincere faith.
6 Aka, na kapae kekahi poe mai ia mea aku, a ua huli ae hoi ma ka hoopaapaa lapuwale;
From these some have drifted away, and have wandered into empty words.
7 E makemake ana e lilo i mau kumu ao kanawai; aole hoi i ike pono i ka lakou mea i olelo ai, aole noi i ka lakou mea i hooiaio ai.
They are ambitious to be teachers of the Law, although they do not understand either their own words or what the things are about which they make such confident assertions.
8 Aka, ua ike kakou i ke kanawai, he mea maikai ia, ke malama pono ia oia e ke kanaka;
Now we know that the Law is good, if a man uses it in the way it should be used,
9 Me ka ike hoi, aole i kauia ke kanawai no ke kanaka hoopono, aka, no ka poe pono ole, ka poe hoolohe ole, ka poe aia, ka poe hewa, ka poe haihaia, ka poe hoino, ka poe pepehi makuakane, ka poe pepehi makuwahine, ka poe pepehi kanaka,
and remembers that a law is not enacted to control a righteous man, but for the lawless and rebellious, the irreligious and sinful, the godless and profane--for those who strike their fathers or their mothers, for murderers,
10 Ka poe hookamakama, ka poe moe aikane, ka poe aihue kanaka, ka poe hoopunipuni, ka poe hoohiki wahahee, a me na mea e ae i ku e mai i ka pono oiaio,
fornicators, sodomites, slave-dealers, liars and false witnesses; and for whatever else is opposed to wholesome teaching
11 Mamuli o ka euanelio nani, a ke Akua pomaikai, i kauohaia mai ai ia'u.
and is not in accordance with the Good News of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.
12 He aloha ko'u ia Kristo Iesu i ko kakou Haku i ka mea i hooikaika mai ia'u, no ka mea, ua manao mai oia e ku paa ana au, a ua hoolilo mai ia'u no keia oihana;
I am thankful to Him who made me strong--even Christ Jesus our Lord--because He has judged me to be faithful and has put me into His service,
13 I ka mea hoino wale mamua, me ka hoomaau, a me ka hooluhi hewa aku; aka, ua alohaia mai la au, no ka mea, ua hana au ia mea me ka naaupo, a me ka manaoio ole.
though I was previously a blasphemer and a persecutor and had been insolent in outrage. Yet mercy was shown me, because I had acted ignorantly, not having as yet believed;
14 A ua mahuahua nui mai la ke aloha wale mai o ko kakou Haku me ka manaoio, a me ke aloha aku iloko o Kristo Iesu.
and the grace of our Lord came to me in overflowing fulness, conferring faith on me and the love which is in Christ Jesus.
15 Eia hoi ka olelo oiaio, e pono e malama nui ia mai, ua hele mai o Kristo Iesu i ke ao nei, e hoola i ka poe hewa; owau no ko lakou mea oi.
Faithful is the saying, and deserving of universal acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; among whom I stand foremost.
16 A ua alohaia mai hoi au, i hoike mai ai o Iesu Kristo ma o'u nei la mua, i ke ahonui a pau, i kumu no ka poe e paulele ana ia ia ma ia hope aku, i ola mau loa ai. (aiōnios g166)
But mercy was shown me in order that in me as the foremost of sinners Christ Jesus might display the fulness of His long-suffering patience as an example to encourage those who would afterwards be resting their faith on Him with a view to the Life of the Ages. (aiōnios g166)
17 I ke Alii mua loa, make ole, ike maka ole ia, ke Akua akamai hookahi wale no, ka mahalo, a me ka hoonaniia, a mau loa aku. Amene. (aiōn g165)
Now to the immortal and invisible King of the Ages, who alone is God, be honour and glory to the Ages of the Ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)
18 O keia kauoha ka'u e kauoha aku nei ia oe, e ke keiki Timoteo, e like me na wanana i hai mua ia mai nou, e kaua aku oe no ia mau mea, i ke kaua maikai;
This is the charge which I entrust to you, my son Timothy, in accordance with the inspired instructions concerning you which were given me long ago, that being equipped with them as your armour you may be continually fighting the good fight,
19 E hoomau ana i ka paulele a me ka manao maikai, i ka mea a kekahi poe i haalele ai, a ili iho la nabaha ka manaoio;
holding fast to faith and a clear conscience, which some have cast aside and have made shipwreck of their faith.
20 O Humenaio, a me Alekanedero, kekahi o ua poe la; o laua ka'u i haawi aku ai ia Satana, i aoia'i laua e hoino hou ole aku.
Among these are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have delivered to Satan so that they may be taught not to blaspheme.
