< Petero II 1 >
1 O SIMON A Petero, he kauwa a he lunaolelo na Iesu Kristo, na ka poe i loaa pu ka manao oiaio i maikai like, ma ka pono o ko kakou Akua, a me Iesu Kristo ko kakou Hoola;
Simeon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained a faith as precious as ours through the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:
2 E nui ko oukou alohaia mai, a me ka maluhia hoi, no ka ike pono ana i ke Akua, a me Iesu, ko kakou Haku;
Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.
3 E like me ka haawi ana mai o kona mana Akua i na mea a pau no kakou, e ola'i, a e haipule ai, ma ka ike ana aku i ka mea nana kakou i wae mai ma ka nani a me ka pono.
His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by glory and virtue.
4 Malaila no ua haiia mai na mea nui loa, e pomaikai nui ai; i mea e loaa ai ia oukou kekahi ano e like me ko ke Akua, no ka mea, ua haalele oukou i ka hewa iloko o ke ao nei, ma ke kuko.
Through these he has given us his precious and magnificent promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of evil desires.
5 Eia hoi kekahi, e hooikaika loa oukou, me ko oukou manaoio e kui aku ai i ka hana pono; a me ka hana pono, i ka naauao;
For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, your virtue with knowledge,
6 A me ka naauao, i ka pakiko; a me ka pakiko, i ke ahonui; a me ke ahonui, i ka haipule;
your knowledge with self-control, your self-control with endurance, your endurance with godliness,
7 A me ka haipule, i ka launa hoahanau; a me ka launa hoahanau, i ke aloha.
your godliness with brotherly affection, and your brotherly affection with love.
8 Ina iloko o oukou keia mau mea, a i mahuahua hoi, aole oukou e lilo i poe hoopalaleha, a i poe hua ole, ma ka ike aku i ko kakou Haku ia Iesu Kristo.
For if you possess these qualities and continue to grow in them, they will keep you from being ineffective and unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 Aka, o ka mea i nele i keia mau mea, ua makapo ia, ua powehiwehi ka ike ana, a ua poina ia ia kona huikalaia ana i na hewa kahiko.
For whoever lacks these qualities is so nearsighted that he is blind, having forgotten the cleansing of his former sins.
10 Nolaila, ea, e na hoahanau, e hooikaika loa oukou, i hooiaioia ko oukou heaia mai, a me ko oukou kohoia ana; no ka mea, ina e hana oukou i keia mau mea, aole loa oukou e haule.
Therefore, brothers, be all the more diligent to confirm that you are among those whom God has called and chosen, because if you do these things, you will never stumble.
11 Pela e hookomo lokomaikai ia'ku ai oukou iloko o ke aupuni mau loa o ko kakou Haku a Hoola hoi o Iesu Kristo. (aiōnios )
For in this way, entry into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be richly provided for you. (aiōnios )
12 Nolaila, aole loa au hoomolowa i ka hoeueu i ko oukou manao i keia mau mea, ua ike no nae oukou, a ua ku paa ma keia mea oiaio.
Therefore, I will not neglect to keep reminding you about these things, though you know them and are established in the truth you now have.
13 Ke manao nei au, he mea pono i ko'u noho ana i keia halelewa, e hoala ia oukou me ka hoeueu aku i ka manao.
I think it is right, as long as I am in this bodily tent, to stir you up by way of reminder,
14 No ka mea, ua ike au, ua kokoke no e hemo ia'u keia halelewa o'u, e like me ka ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo i hoike mai ai ia'u.
because I know that this tent will soon be laid aside, as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.
15 Aka hoi, e hooikaika mau wau, i hiki ia oukou, ke manao mau i keia mau mea mahope o kuu make ana.
And I will make every effort to ensure that after my departure you will be able to recall these things at any time.
16 No ka mea, aole makou i hahai mamuli o na olelo wahahee i imi akamai ia, i ko makou hoike ana aku ia oukou i ka mana, a me ka hiki ana mai o ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo, aka, he poe ike maka makou i kona nani.
For we did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17 No ka mea, mai ke Akua ka Makua mai, i loaa mai ai ia ia ka hoomaikai, a me ka hoonani, i ka wa i hiki mai ai ka leo io na la, mai ka nani kupanaha loa mai; Eia kuu keiki hiwahiwa, ua olioli loa au ia ia.
For he received honor and glory from God the Father when that voice came to him from the Majestic Glory: “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
18 O keia leo, mai ka lani mai, oia ka makou i lohe ai, i ka wa a makou i noho pu ai me ia, ma ka mauna hoano.
We ourselves heard this voice come from heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.
19 Eia hoi ia kakou ka na kaula olelo, i hooiaio loa ia; ua hana pono no hoi oukou i ko oukou malama ana ia mea, me he kukui la, e hoomalamalama ana i kahi pouli, a wehe mai ke alaula, a puka mai ka hokuao iloko o ko oukou mau naau;
So we have the prophetic word more fully confirmed. You will do well to pay attention to it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.
20 Me ka ike mua i keia, o kela wanana keia wanana o ka palapala hemolele, aole na na kaula ponoi iho ka hoike ana.
First of all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation.
21 No ka mea, i ka wa kahiko, aole no ka mauao o kanaka, ka na kaula; aka, ua olelo mai na kanaka hemolele o ke Akua i ka uluhia mai e ka Uhane Hemolele.
For no prophecy ever came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
