Petero II 2
1 HE poe kaula wahahee kekahi mamua iwaena o na kanaka, pela no e hiki mai auanei kekahi poe kumu wahahee iwaena o oukou, ua lakou no e hoike malu mai i na manao ku e, e make ai, e hoole ana i ka Haku nana lakou i kuai mai, a e hooili ana i ka make koke maluna o lakou iho.
But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 E nui loa no hoi ka poe hahai mamuli o ko lakou aoao hewa; a no lakou o olelo hoinoia'i ka aoao oiaio.
And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
3 A no ka puniwaiwai, e kuai no lakou ia oukou, me ka olelo wahahee; aole hoi e hookaulua loa ko lakou hoohewaia, aole e hiamoe ko lakou make.
And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
4 No ka mea, ina aole i aloha mai ke Akua i na anela i hewa, aka, kiola no ia lakou ilalo i ka po, me ka paa i na kaula o ka pouli, i malamaia'i no ka hoahewaia; (Tartaroō g5020)
For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast [them] down to hell, and delivered [them] into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; (Tartaroō g5020)
5 Aole hoi i aloha mai i kela ao kahiko, o Noa wale no kana i hoola ae, o ka walu no ia, he mea hoike ma ka pono, a hoouhi mai i ke kaiakahinalii maluna o kela ao o ka poe aia;
And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth [person], a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
6 A puhi aku no hoi i na kulanakauhale o Sodoma a me Gomora a lehu, me ka hoohewa e make mainoino, e hoolilo ana ia lakou i hoailona e ao ai i ka poe aia ma ia hope;
And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned [them] with an overthrow, making [them] an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;
7 Ua hoopakele no hoi ia Lota i ke kanaka pono, i uluhua i ka poe aia e noho makaleho ana;
And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked:
8 (No ka mea, o ua kanaka pono la, i kona noho pu ana me lakou, hoehaeha oia i kona naau pono i kela la i keia la, i ka ike ana, a i ka lohe ana i ka lakou hana hewa ana; )
(For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed [his] righteous soul from day to day with [their] unlawful deeds; )
9 Ua ike no ka Haku e hoopakele ae i ka poe haipule mai ka hoowalewaleia ae, a e hoana e hoi i ka poe hewa, no ka la hookolokolo i hoopaiia mai lakou.
The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:
10 O lakou mua, o ka poe hahai mamuli o ke kino, ma ke kuko i na mea haumia. me ka hoowahawaha i na'lii. He poe haanou wale lakou, a hoopaa, aole makau i ka olelo ino i na'lii.
But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous [are they], selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.
11 Aka, o na anela, o ka poe oi aku ka ikaika, a me ka mana, aole lakou i hoike ae imua o ka Haku i ka manao hoohewa ia lakou.
Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.
12 Aka, o keia poe, e Mike me na holoholona maoli, i hanaia i mea e hopuia'i e pepehiia, pela lakou e olelo iho nei i na mea a lakou i hoomaopopo ole ai; a e make hoi lakou iloko o ko lakou hewa iho:
But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;
13 E ukuia hoi lakou i ka uku o ka hewa; no ka mea, ua manao lakou he mea lealea ke hoohaunaele i ke ao; he palahea lakou, a he kikohukohu, ua olioli lakou i ko lakou wahahee ana, i ka lakou ahaaina pu ana me oukou.
And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, [as] they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots [they are] and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;
14 Ua niua na maka i na wahine moe kolohe, aole hiki ke hooki i ka hewa, e kumakaia ana i na uhane ku kapekepeke; ua maa loa ko lakou naau i ka puni waiwai; he poe keiki i ahewaia.
Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:
15 Ua haalele lakou i ko ala o ka pono ua hele hewa me ka hahai aku ma ka aoao o Balaama a Bosora, ka mea i makemake i ka uku o ka hewa;
Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam [the son] of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;
16 Aka, ua aoia mai oia no kona hewa; na ka hoki leo ole i olelo mai me ka leo kanaka, a papa mai la i ka pupule o ua kaula la.
But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man’s voice forbad the madness of the prophet.
17 He poe punawai wai ole lakou, he poe ao lakou i lele ino i ka makani; no lakou i malamaia'i ka poeleele o ka pouli mau loa. (questioned)
These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. (questioned)
18 No ka mea, i ko lakou haanui ana ma ka mea lapuwale, ke hoowalewale nei lakou iloko o ke kuko o ke kino a me ka makaleho wale, i na mea i haalele aku i ka poe e noho ana ma ka hewa.
For when they speak great swelling [words] of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, [through much] wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.
19 Hai mai la lakou, he luhi ole ia no lakou la, aka, e luhi ana lakou iho malalo o ka hewa; no ka mea, ma ka mea i pio ai kekahi, ua hooluhiia oia malaila.
While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.
20 No ka mea, ina lakou i haalele i ka paumaele o ke ao nei, no ka ike ana i ka Haku a me ka Hoola, o Iesu Kristo, a mahope iho, hihia hou, a lilo ilaila, ua oi aku ka ino o ko lakou hope, i ko ka mua.
For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
21 Ina ua ike ole lakou i ka aoao o ka pono, e aho no ia, mamua o ko lakou ike ana, a mahope iho haalele i ka olelo hemolele i haawiia mai na lakou.
For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known [it], to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.
22 Aka, ua hookoia ia lakou ka olelo oiaio, Ua hoi hou ka ilio i kona luai iho, a me ka puaa hoi i holoiia, i kona haluku ana iloko o ke kiolepo.
But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog [is] turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.
