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;
Simon Peter, slave and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained with us the same kind of faith in 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;
may grace and peace be multiplied to you through a real knowledge of God and of our Lord Jesus,
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.
in that His divine power has granted to us all things pertaining to life and godliness, through the real knowledge of the One who called us by glory and excellence,
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 which He has granted to us such precious and extraordinary promises, so that through these you may become partakers of a divine nature, having escaped the depravity that is in the world because of lust.
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;
So for this very reason, making every effort, to your faith add excellence, and to the excellence knowledge,
6 A me ka naauao, i ka pakiko; a me ka pakiko, i ke ahonui; a me ke ahonui, i ka haipule;
and to the knowledge self-control, and to the self-control perseverance, and to the perseverance godliness,
7 A me ka haipule, i ka launa hoahanau; a me ka launa hoahanau, i ke aloha.
and to the godliness brotherly affection, and to the brotherly affection 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.
Because with these things existing and increasing in you, it makes you to be neither useless nor unfruitful in the real 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 he who lacks these things is blind, being so myopic, having forgotten the cleansing from his past 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, you should be all the more diligent to make your calling and election sure, for 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 g166)
Because in this way you will be granted the abundant entrance into the unending kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
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.
So then, I will not neglect to keep reminding you about these things, though you know and are established in the present truth.
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.
Yes, I think it right to stir you up by a reminder, as long as I am in this ‘tent’,
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.
knowing that the shedding of my ‘tent’ is imminent, just as our Lord Jesus Christ has 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.
Moreover I will take pains to provide a reminder of these things for you to have, as needed, after my exit.
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.
Now then, we did not follow craftily devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; rather we were attentive 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.
—because He received from God the Father honor and glory when that Voice was directed to Him by the Magnificent Glory, “This is my Son, the beloved, in whom I am always 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.
yes, we heard this Voice being uttered 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;
And so we have the most reliable prophetic Word, to which you do well to pay attention 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.
knowing this first, that no Prophecy of Scripture comes to be from private release;
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, rather holy men of God spoke as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
