Oihana 10
1 A IA ma Kaisareia kekahi kanaka, o Korenelio kona inoa, he lunahaneri no kekahi papakoa i kapaia ka Italia.
Now a Captain of the Italian Regiment, named Cornelius, was quartered at Caesarea.
2 He haipule, a makau ia i ke Akua, a me ko kona hale a pau, manawalea nui no ia i kanaka, a pule mau no ia i ko Akua.
He was religious and God-fearing--and so was every member of his household. He was also liberal in his charities to the people, and continually offered prayer to God.
3 Ma ka hora aiwa paha o ka la, ike paka aku la ia ma ka hihio, i anela o ke Akua, e hele mai ana io na la, a i mai la ia ia, E Korenelio.
About three o'clock one afternoon he had a vision, and distinctly saw an angel of God enter his house, who called him by name, saying, "Cornelius!"
4 A i ka haka pono ana ia ia, makau iho la, i aku la, E ka Haku, heaha ia? I mai la kela ia ia, Ua pii iluna kau mau pule, a me kau mau manawalea, i mea hoomanao imua o ke Akua.
Looking steadily at him, and being much alarmed, he said, "What do you want, Sir?" "Your prayers and charities," he replied, "have gone up and have been recorded before God.
5 E hoouna aku oe ano i mau kanaka ma Iope, e kii ia Simona, i kapaia o Petero.
And now send to Jaffa and fetch Simon, surnamed Peter.
6 Ua hookipaia oia o Simona ka hanaili, aia i ka hale ma kahakai: oia ka mea nana e hai mai ia oe i ka pono au e hana aku ai.
He is staying as a guest with Simon, a tanner, who has a house close to the sea."
7 A hala aku la ka anela i olelo aku ai ia ia, alaila hea aku la ia i na ohua ona elua, a me kekahi koa haipule o ka poe malama mau ia ia.
So when the angel who had been speaking to him was gone, Cornelius called two of his servants and a God-fearing soldier who was in constant attendance on him,
8 A hoike ana'ku i na mea a pau ia lakou, a hoouna aku la ia lakou i Iope.
and, after telling them everything, he sent them to Jaffa.
9 A ia la ao, i ko lakou holo ana, a hookokoke ana aku i ke kulanakauhale, pii ae la o Petero i kahi maluna o ka hale e pule ai, i ke ono paha o ka hora.
The next day, while they were still on their journey and were getting near the town, about noon Peter went up on the house-top to pray.
10 Pololi loa iho la, makemake ae la ia e ai; a i ko lakou hoomakaukau ana, haule mai maluna ona he akaku;
He had become unusually hungry and wished for food; but, while they were preparing it, he fell into a trance.
11 Ike aku la ia, ua weheia ka lani, a iho mai la kekahi puolo io na la, ua like me ke kuina nui i huiia na kihi eha, a kuuia iho la ilalo i ka honua:
The sky had opened to his view, and what seemed to be an enormous sail was descending, being let down to the earth by ropes at the four corners.
12 Maloko ona na holoholona wawae eha a pau o ka honua, a me na mea hihiu, a me na mea kolo, a me na manu o ka lewa.
In it were all kinds of quadrupeds, reptiles and birds,
13 A hiki mai la kekahi leo io na la, E Petero; e ala, e pepehi, a ai.
and a voice came to him which said, "Rise, Peter, kill and eat."
14 I aku la o Petero, Aole loa pela, e ka Haku; no ka mea, aole loa au i ai i na mea pono ole a pau, a me na mea haumia.
"On no account, Lord," he replied; "for I have never yet eaten anything unholy and impure."
15 Hiki hou mai ua leo la ia ia, o ka lua ia, O ka mea i huikalaia e ke Akua, mai kapa aku oe, he pono ole.
Again a second time a voice was heard which said, "What God has purified, you must not regard as unholy."
16 Ekolu hana ana mai pela; a lawe hou ia'ku ua puolo la i ka lani.
This was said three times, and immediately the sail was drawn up out of sight.
17 I ko Petero kanalua ana iloko ona, i ke ano o ke akaku ana i ike ai, aia hoi, na kanaka i hoounaia mai e Korenelio, ua ninau mai i ka hale o Simona, a ku iho la lakou ma ka ipuka.
While Peter was greatly perplexed as to the meaning of the vision which he had seen, just then the men sent by Cornelius, having by inquiry found out Simon's house,
18 Hea mai lakou, ninau mai la, Ke noho nei anei o Simona maanei, o ka mea i kapaia o Petero?
had come to the door and had called the servant, and were asking, "Is Simon, surnamed Peter, staying here?"
19 I ka noonoo ana o Petero i ua akaku la, olelo mai la ka Uhane ia ia, Aia hoi, ke imi mai nei na kanaka ekolu ia oe.
And Peter was still earnestly thinking over the vision, when the Spirit said to him, "Three men are now inquiring for you.
20 Ea, e ku oe, a e iho ilalo, a e holo pu mo lakou, mai kanalua; no ka mea, na'u no lakou i hoouna.
Rise, go down, and go with them without any misgivings; for it is I who have sent them to you."
21 Iho mai la o Petero ilalo i ua poe kanaka la i hoounaia mai io na la e Korenelio, i mai la, Eia no wau ka mea a oukou i imi mai nei. Heaha ka mea a oukou i hele mai ai ia nei?
So Peter went down and said to the men, "I am the Simon you are inquiring for. What is the reason of your coming?"
22 I mai la lakou, O Korenelio, he lunahaneri, he kanaka pono, e makau ana no hoi i ke Akua, ua ike maopopo ia e ka lahuikanaka a pau o na Iudaio, a na kauohaia ia e kekahi anela hemolele, mai ke Akua mai, e kii aku ia oe e holo i kona hale, i lohe oia i na olelo ma ou la.
Their reply was, "Cornelius, a Captain, an upright and God-fearing man, of whom the whole Jewish nation speaks well, has been divinely instructed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house and listen to what you have to say."
23 Alaila hea aku la oia ia lakou, a hookipa mai la. A ia la ae, ku ae la ia a hele pu me lakou, a hele pu aku no rae ia kekahi poe hoahanau no Iope.
Upon hearing this, Peter invited them in, and gave them a lodging. The next day he set out with them, some of the brethren from Jaffa going with him,
24 A ia la ae, hiki aku la lakou i Kaisareia; a e kakali ana o Korenelio ia lakou, ua hoakoakoa oia i kona poe hoahanau a me kona poe hoalauna punahele.
and the day after that they reached Caesarea. There Cornelius was awaiting their arrival, and had invited all his relatives and intimate friends to be present.
25 A i ko Petero komo ana aku, halawai mai la o Korenelio me ia, a moe iho la kela ma kona mau wawae, a hoomana aku la.
When Peter entered the house, Cornelius met him, and threw himself at his feet to do him homage.
26 Hoala mai la o Petero ia ia, i mai la, E ku iluna; no ka mea, he kanaka no hoi au.
But Peter lifted him up. "Stand up," he said; "I myself also am but a man."
27 A i ko lana kamailio pu ana, komo ae la ia iloko, a ike iho la i ka poe i hoakoakoaia mai he nui.
So Peter went in and conversed with him, and found a large company assembled.
28 I mai la oia ia lakou, Ua ike no oukou, he mea kapu i ko kanaka Iudaio, e nonoho pu a me ka holo aku i kekahi mea o ka aina e; aka, ua hoike mai ke Akua ia'u, aole e kapa aku i kekahi kanaka, he pono ole, a he haumia.
He said to them, "You know better than most that a Jew is strictly forbidden to associate with a Gentile or visit him; but God has taught me to call no one unholy or unclean.
29 No ia mea, i ko'u kiiia'e nei, hele mai no wau me ke kuipehi ole. Nolaila, ke ninau aku nei au, no ke aha la oukou i kii mai ai ia'u.
So for this reason, when sent for, I came without raising any objection. I therefore ask why you sent for me."
30 I aku la o Korenelio, Eha la mamua aku nei, e hookeai ana au, a hiki i keia hora; a i ka hora aiwa, pule iho la au ma ko'u hale, aia hoi, ku mai la kekahi kanaka imua o'u me ka aahu hinuhinu,
"Just at this hour, three days ago," replied Cornelius, "I was offering afternoon prayer in my house, when suddenly a man in shining raiment stood in front of me,
31 I mai la, e Korenelio, ua loheia kau pule, ua hoomanaoia no hoi kau mau hoomanawalea ana imua o ke Akua.
who said, "'Cornelius, your prayer has been heard, and your charities have been put on record before God.
32 Nolaila e hoouna aku oe ma Iope, e kii ia Simona, i kapaia o Petero; ua hookipaia ia maloko o ka hale o Simona ka hanaili, aia ma ke kahakai; a hiki mai ia, nana no e olelo mai ia oe.
Send therefore to Jaffa, and invite Simon, surnamed Peter, to come here. He is staying as a guest in the house of Simon, a tanner, close to the sea.'
33 No ia mea, hoouna koke aku la au i ou la, a ua hana pono oe i kou holo ana mai. Kia noi makou a pau loa imua i ke alo o ke Akua e hoolohe i na mea a pau i kauohaia mai ai ia oe e ke Akua.
"Immediately, therefore, I sent to you, and I thank you heartily for having come. That is why all of us are now assembled here in God's presence, to listen to what the Lord has commanded you to say."
34 A oaka ae la ko Petero waha, i mai la, Ke ike nei au he oiaio no, aole ke Akua i manao mai i ko waho o ke kanaka:
Then Peter began to speak. "I clearly see," he said, "that God makes no distinctions between one man and another;
35 Aka, ma na luhui a pau, ua oluolu ia i na mea i makau ia ia, a me ka haua pono.
but that in every nation those who fear Him and live good lives are acceptable to Him.
36 O ka olelo ana i hoouna mai ai i na mamo a Iseraela, o hai ana i maluhia ma o Iesu Kristo la; (oia no ka Haku no na mea a pau.)
The Message which He sent to the descendants of Israel, when He announced the Good News of peace through Jesus Christ--He is Lord of all--that Message you cannot but know;
37 Ua ike no oukou i ka olelo I kaulana ma Iudea a pau, ma Galilaia ka hoomaka ana, mahope iho o ka bapetizo a Ioane i hai mai ai.
the story, I mean, which has spread through the length and breadth of Judaea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism which John proclaimed.
38 O Iesu no Nazareta, ua poni ke Akua ia ia me ka Uhane Hemolele, a me ka mana; nana no i kaahele e hana maikai ana, a me ka hoola ana i na mea a pau i hooluhiia e ka diabolo; no ka mea, o ke Akua pu kekahi me ia.
It tells how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, so that He went about everywhere doing acts of kindness, and curing all who were being continually oppressed by the Devil--for God was with Jesus.
39 He poe hoike makou i na mea a pau ana i hana'i ma ka aina o na Iudaio, a me Ierusalema; na lakou no ia i pepehi, a kau aku hoi maluna o ka laau.
"And we are witnesses as to all that He did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. But they even put Him to death, by crucifixion.
40 Hoala mai ke Akua ia ia i ke kolu o ka la, a hoike mai no hoi ia ia ma ke akea:
That same Jesus God raised to life on the third day, and permitted Him to appear unmistakably,
41 Aole nae i kanaka a pau loa, aka, i ka poe hoike a ke Akua i wae mua ai, ia makou no, i ka poe i ai pu a i inu pu me ia mahope o kona alahouana, mai ka make mai.
not to all the people, but to witnesses--men previously chosen by God--namely, to us, who ate and drank with Him after He rose from the dead.
42 Nana no makou i kauoha iho, e ao aku i kanaka, a e hoike aku, oia ka mea i hooholo e ia e ke Akua, i lunakanawai, no ka poe ola, a me ka poe make.
And He has commanded us to preach to the people and solemnly declare that this is He who has been appointed by God to be the Judge of the living and the dead.
43 Ua hoike maopopo mai ka poe kaula a pau nona, e loaa ke kala ana o ka hala ma kona inoa, i ka poe a pau i manaoio ia ia.
To Him all the Prophets bear witness, and testify that through His name all who believe in Him receive the forgiveness of their sins."
44 I ka Petero hai ana mai i keia mau olelo, haule mai ka Uhane Hemolele mai una o ka poe a pau i lohe ia olelo.
While Peter was speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all who were listening to the Message.
45 O ka poe ma ke okipoepoe i manaoio, a i hele pu me Petero, kahaha iho la lakou, no ka mea, na niniuiia mai ka haawina o ka Uhane Hemolele mai una o ko na aina e.
And all the Jewish believers who had come with Peter were astonished that on the Gentiles also the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out.
46 Ua lohe lakou i ka lakou olelo ana mai, ma na olelo e, a me ka hoonani aku i ke Akua. Alaila ninau mai la o Petero,
For they heard them speaking in tongues and extolling the majesty of God. Then Peter said,
47 E hiki anei i kekahi ke papa mai i ka wai i bapetizo ole ia lakou nei, ka poe i loaa ka Uhane Hemolele, o like me makou?
"Can any one forbid the use of water, and object to these persons being baptized--men who have received the Holy Spirit just as we did?"
48 Kauoha mai la ia, o bapetizoia lakou ma ka inoa o ka Haku. Alaila nonoi aku la lakou ia ia, e noho ia i kekahi mau la.
And he directed that they should be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they begged him to remain with them for a time.
