Oihana 1
1 U A hoonoho aku au, e Teopilo, i ka mooolelo mua, no namea a pau a Iesu i hoomaka'i e hana a e ao mai no hoi,
THE former book have I written, O Theophilus concerning all the things which our Lord Jesus Messiah began to do and teach,
2 A hiki i ka la i laweia'ku ai ia iluna, mahope o kana kauoha ana mai ma ka Uhane Hemolele i na lunaolelo ana i wae mai ai.
until the day when he was taken up, after he had instructed those legates whom he had chosen by the Holy Spirit.
3 Hoike ola mai no oia ia ia iho ia lakou mahope o kona make ana, ma na hoailona hoike he nui loa, me ka ikeia e lakou i na la ho kanaha, a olelo mai no ia i na mea o ke aupuni o ke Akua:
To whom also he showed himself alive after he had suffered, by numerous signs, during forty days, while he was seen by them, and spoke of the kingdom of God.
4 A i kona halawai ana me lakou, kauoha mai la oia ia lakou, aole e haalele ia Ierusalema, aka, e kali i ka ka Makua olelo hoopomaikai, a oukou i lohe ai ia'u.
And when he had eaten bread with them, he instructed them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which (said he) ye have heard from me.
5 No ka mea, ua bapetizo io no o Ioane me ka wai; aka, e bapetizoia no hoi oukou i ka Uhane Hemolele, mahope iho o na la aohe nui.
For John baptized with water; but ye will be baptized with the Holy Spirit after not many days.
6 No ia mea, i ko lakou akoakoa ana, ninau aku la lakou ia ia, i aku la, E ka Haku, e hoihoi mai anei oe i ke aupuni no ka Iseraela i keia wa?
And they, when assembled, asked him and said to him: Our Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?
7 I mai la oia ia lakou, Aole ia oukou ka ike i na wa, a me na kau a ka Makua i waiho ai i kona mana iho.
He said to them: It is not yours, to know the time or times which God hath placed in his own power.
8 Aka, e loaa no ia oukou ka mana, ke hiki mai ka Uhane Hemolele maluna iho o oukou; a e lilo auanei oukou i poe hoike no'u ma Ierusalema, a ma Iudea a pau, a ma Samaria, a hiki wale aku i ke kihi o ka honua.
But when the Holy Spirit shall come upon you, ye will receive energy, and will be witnesses for me in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and also among the Samaritans, and unto the ends of the earth.
9 A oki ae la kana olelo ana ia mau mea, e nana aku ana lakou, a laweia'ku la ia iluna; a na ke ao no ia i apo mai, mai ko lakou mau maka aku.
And when he had said these things, while they beheld him, he was taken up, and a cloud received him, and he was hidden from their eyes.
10 A i ko lakou haka pono ana aku i ka lani, i kona pii ana, aia hoi, ku kokoke mai la me lakou na kanaka elua, me ka aahu keokeo;
And while they were looking toward heav, as he departed, two men were found standing near them, in white garments,
11 I mai la hoi laua, E na kanaka o Galilaia, no ke aha la oukou e ku nei e nana aku ana i ka lani? O Iesu nei, ka mea i laweia'ku nei i ka lani, mai o oukou aku nei, pela no ia e hoi hou mai ai e like me ka oukou ike ana aku ia ia e pii ana i ka lani.
and saying to them: Ye Galilean men, why stand ye and look toward heaven? This Jesus, who is taken up from you to heaven, will so come, as ye have seen him ascend to heaven.
12 Alaila, hoi aku la lakou i Ierusalema, mai ka mauna aku i kapaia o Oliveta, ua kokoke no ia i Ierusalema, o ko ka la Sabati hele ana.
And afterwards they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called the place of Olives, which was near to Jerusalem, and distant from it about seven furlongs.
13 A komo lakou iloko, pii aku la, a iloko o kekahi keena maluna, malaila lakou i noho ai, o Petero, a me Iakobo, a me Ioane, a me Anederea, a me Pilipo, a me Toma, a me Baretolomaio, a me Mataio, a me Iakobo a Alepaio, a me Simona Zelote, a me Inda ka hoahanau no Iakobo.
And when they had entered, they went to an upper chamber; where were Peter, and John, and James, and Andrew, and Philip, and Thomas, and Matthew, and Bartholomew, and James the son of Alpheus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the son of James.
14 Hoomau iho la lakou nei a pau i ka pule ana, a me ka nonoi aku, me ka lokahi o ka manao, o na wahine hoi kekahi, a me Maria, ka makuwahine o Iesu, a me kona poe hoahanau.
All these unitedly persevered in prayer, with one soul, together with the women, and with Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
15 I ua mau la la, ku ae la o Petero iwaenakonu o na haumana, i mai la, (o ka nui o ko lakou inoa, hookahi haneri me ka iwakalua, )
And in those days stood up Simon Cephas in the midst of the disciples, (the persons there assembled being about one hundred and twenty, ) and said:
16 E na kanaka, na hoahanau, he mea pono e hookoia keia palapala a ka Uhane Hemolele i hai mai ai ma ka waha o Davida no Iuda, ka mea nana i alakai i ka poe i hopu ia Iesu.
Men, brethren, it was right that the scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spake, by the mouth of David, concerning Judas who was guide to them that apprehended Jesus.
17 No ka mea, ua helu pu ia oia me kakou, a loaa no hoi ia ia kekahi o neia oihana.
For he was numbered with us, and had a part in this ministry.
18 A kuai iho la ia i aina me ka uku no ka hewa; a haule iho la ia ilalo kona poo, nahae iho la iwaenakonu ona, a pahu aku la kona naau a pau iwaho.
He purchased a field with the wages of sin; and he fell upon his face on the ground, and burst in the middle, and all his entrails were poured out.
19 A ikea iho la ia mea e ka poe a pau e noho ana ma Ierusalema; nolaila ua kapaia'ku la ia aina, ma ka lakou olelo, Akeledama, o ke ano keia, O ka aina koko.
And this was known to all that dwelt at Jerusalem; so that the field was called, in the language of the country, Aceldama, which is interpreted Field of Blood.
20 No ka mea, ua palanalaia ma ka buke Halelu, E lilo kona hale i neoneo, aole loa kekahi e noho ilaila; a, E lawe hoi kekahi i kana oihana.
For it is written, in the book of Psalms: Let his habitation be desolate, and let no resident be in it; and let another take his service.
21 Nolaila, o na kanaka i hele pu ai me kakou i na wa a pau loa a ka Haku, a Iesu i hele mai ai, a i hele aku ai iwaena o kakou,
It should therefore be, that one of these persons, who have been with us all the time that our Lord Jesus went in and out with us,
22 Mai ka hoomaka ana o Ioane e bapetizo ai, a hiki mai i ka la i laweia'ku ai ia mai o kakou aku, he mea pono e lilo kekahi o lakou i mea hoike pu me kakou i kona alahou ana mai.
commencing from the baptism of John, unto the day he was taken up from us, should be, with us, a witness of his resurrection.
23 Wae aku la lakou i elua, o Iosepa i kapaia o Baresaba, o Iouseto kekahi inoa ona, a me Matia hoi.
And they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabas, whose surname was Justus, and Matthias.
24 Pule aku la lakou, i aku la, E ka Haku, ka mea ike i ka naau o na mea a pau loa, e hoike mai oe i ka mea o laua nei au e koho mai ai,
And when they had prayed, they said: Thou, Lord, knowest what is in the hearts of all, manifest which thou hast chosen of these two,
25 I lawe pu ia i kekahi o keia oihana, a me ko ka lunaolelo, mai ia wahi mai ko Iuda haule ana, i hele aku ia i kona wahi iho.
that he should take part in this ministry and legateship, from which Judas broke away, that he might go to his own place.
26 Hailona iho la lakou, a lilo ka hailona ia Matia; a helu pu ia iho la ia me na lunaolelo he umikumamakahi.
And they cast lots, and it came upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven legates.
