< Oihana 13 >

1 MALOKO hoi o ka ekaleaia, ma Anetioka, kekahi mau kaula a me na kumu, o Barenaba kekahi, a me Simeona i kapaia o Nigera, a me Loukio no Kurene, a me Manaena i hanai pu ia me Herode ke kiaaina, a me Saulo.
Now there were in Antioch, in the Church there--as Prophets and teachers--barnabas, Symeon surnamed 'the black,' Lucius the Cyrenaean, Manaen (who was Herod the Tetrarch's foster-brother), and Saul.
2 I ko lakou hoomana ana i ka Haku, a me ka hookeai ana, i mai la ka Uhane Hemolele, E hookaawale oukou ia Barenaba laua me Saulo na'u, no ka hana a'u i hea aku ai ia laua.
While they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for Me, now at once, Barnabas and Saul, for the work to which I have called them."
3 Alaila hookeai iho la lakou, pule aku la, kau iho la na lima maluna o laua, a hookuu aku la ia laua.
So, after fasting and prayer and the laying on of hands, they let them go.
4 Na ka Uhane Hemolele laua i hoouna ae, e hele ae la laua i Seleukia; a malaila aku laua i holo ai a hiki i Kupero.
They therefore, being thus sent out by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleuceia, and from there sailed to Cyprus.
5 A hiki laua i Salami, hai mai la laua i ka olelo a ke Akua maloko o na halehalawai o na Iudaio; o Ioane no hoi kekahi hoalawehana na laua.
Having reached Salamis, they began to announce God's Message in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John as their assistant.
6 Kaahele aku la lakou i ka mokupuni a hiki i Papo, loaa ia lakou kekahi kilo, he kaula wahahee hoi ia, he Iudaio, o Bariesu kona inoa.
When they had gone through the whole length of the island as far as Paphos, they there met with a Jewish magician and false prophet, Bar-Jesus by name,
7 Aia no ia me Seregio Paulo, ke kiaaina, he kanaka akamai: a kii aku la oia ia Barenaba a me Saulo, makemake iho la ia, e lohe i ka olelo a ke Akua.
who was a friend of the Proconsul Sergius Paulus. The Proconsul was a man of keen intelligence. He sent for Barnabas and Saul, and asked to be told God's Message.
8 Aka, o Eluma, ke kilo (o kona inoa ia i ka hoolike ana) ku e aku la oia ia laua, manao iho la e hoohuli i ke kiaaina, mai ka manaoio aku.
But Elymas (or 'the Magician,' for such is the meaning of the name) opposed them, and tried to prevent the Proconsul from accepting the faith.
9 Aka, o Saulo, (o Paulo no ia, ) ua piha oia i ka Uhane Hemolele, haka pono mai la oia ia ia.
Then Saul, who is also called Paul, was filled with the Holy Spirit, and, fixing his eyes on Elymas,
10 I mai la, auwe oe ka mea i piha i ka wahahee a me ka hewa a pau, he keiki na ka diabolo, he enemi no ka pono a pau, aole anei e hooki oe i kou keakea ana i na aoao pono o ka Haku?
said, "You who are full of every kind of craftiness and unscrupulous cunning--you son of the Devil and foe to all that is right--will you never cease to misrepresent the straight paths of the Lord?
11 Eia hoi, ano la e kau mai ana ka lima o ka Haku maluna ou, a e makapo no oe, aole e ike aku i ka la a hiki i kekahi manawa. Haule koke mai la maluna ona ka pouli a me ka moowini. Holoholo ae la ia e imi i mea alakai lima nona.
The Lord's hand is now upon you, and you will be blind for a time and unable to see the light of day." Instantly there fell upon him a mist and a darkness, and, as he walked about, he begged people to lead him by the hand.
12 Alaila ike ae la ke kiaaina i ka mea i hanaia mai ai, manaoio aku la ia me ka mahalo aku i ke ao ana a ka Haku.
Then the Proconsul, seeing what had happened, believed, being struck with amazement at the teaching of the Lord.
13 Holo aku la o Paulo ma mai Papo a hiki mai i Perege no Pamepulia: a haalele a Ioane ia laua, a hoi aku la i Ierusalema.
From Paphos, Paul and his party put out to sea and sailed to Perga in Pamphylia. John, however, left them and returned to Jerusalem.
14 A haalele iho la laua ia Perege, a hele mai la i Anetioka no Pisidia, a komo ae la iloko o ka halehalawai i ka la Sabati, a noho iho la.
But they themselves, passing through from Perga, came to Antioch in Pisidia. Here, on the Sabbath day, they went into the synagogue and sat down.
15 A mahope o ka heluhelu ana o ke kanawai a me ka na kaula, kii ae la na luna o ka halehalawai ia laua, i ae la, E na kanaka, na hoahanau, ina ia olua kekahi olelo hooikaika no na kanaka, ea, e olelo mai.
After the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the Wardens of the synagogue sent word to them. "Brethren," they said, "if you have anything encouraging to say to the people, speak."
16 Ku mai la o Paulo, a peahi me ka lima, i mai la, E na kanaka o Iseraela, a me ka poe makau i ke Akua, e hoolohe mai.
So Paul rose, and motioning with his hand for silence, said, "Israelites, and you others who fear God, pay attention to me.
17 Na ke Akua o keia poe kanaka o Iseraela i wae ae ko kakou kupuna, a hookiekie iho la ia poe kanaka i ko lakou noho ana i Aigupita, a lawe mai ia lakou, mailoko mai o ia wahi, me ka lima kakauha;
The God of this people of Israel chose our forefathers, and made the people great during their stay in Egypt, until with wondrous power He brought them out from that land.
18 Nana no lakou i hiipoi ma ka waonahele i na makahiki he kanaha.
For a period of about forty years, He fed them, like a nurse, in the Desert.
19 A pau na lahuikanaka ehiku ma ka aina ma Kanaana i ka anaiia, nana no i puunaue i ko lakou aina no lakou ma ka hailona ana.
Then, after overthrowing seven nations in the land of Canaan, He divided that country among them as their inheritance for about four hundred and fifty years;
20 A mahope iho o ia mau mea, haawi mai la ia i mau lunakanawai, i eha paha haneri makahiki a me kanalima, a hiki i ka wa o Samuela, ke kaula.
and afterwards He gave them judges down to the time of the Prophet Samuel.
21 A ia wa mai, nonoi aku lakou i alii nui; a haawi mai la ke Akua ia Saulo i keiki a Kisa no lakou, he kanaka no ka ohana a Beniamina, hookahi no kanaha makahiki.
Next they asked for a king, and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a Benjamite, who reigned forty years.
22 Alaila, kapae ae la kela ia ia, a hookiekie ae la ia Davida i alii no lakou; hoike mai la ia i mai la ia ia, Ua loaa ia'u o Davida a Iese, he kanaka ku pono i ko'u naau, nana no e hana i ko'u makemake a pau.
After removing him, He raised up David to be their king, to whom He also bore witness when He said, "'I have found David the son of Jesse, a man I love, who will obey all My commands.'
23 Ua hoopuka mai ke Akua ia Iesu noloko mai o kana poe mamo, e like me kana olelo mua ana mai, i mea ola no ka Iseraela.
"It is from among David's descendants that God, in fulfilment of His promise, has raised up a Saviour for Israel, even Jesus.
24 Mamua o kona hiki ana mai, ua hai mua mai no o Ioane, i ka bapetizo ana o ka mihi i na kanaka a pau o Iseraela.
Before the coming of Jesus, John had proclaimed to all the people of Israel a baptism of repentance.
25 A hoopau o Ioane i kana hana, ninau mai la ia, Owai la wau i ko oukou manao? Aole au ia. Aia hoi, ke hele mai nei kekahi mahope o'u aole au e pono ke wehe i na kamaa o kona mau kapuwai.
But John, towards the end of his career, repeatedly asked the people, "'What do you suppose me to be? I am not the Christ. But there is One coming after me whose sandal I am not worthy to unfasten.'
26 E na kanaka, na hoahanau mamo a Aberahama, a me ka poe o oukou nei e makau i ke Akua, ua hoounaia mai ia oukou nei ka olelo o keia ola.
"Brethren, descendants of the family of Abraham, and all among you who fear God, to us has this Message of salvation been sent.
27 No ka mea, e ka poe i noho ma Ierusalema, a me ko lakou mau alii, aole lakou i ike ia ia, a me ka leo a na kaula, ka mea i heluhelaia i na la Sabati a pau, ua hoeko lakou ia leo i ko lakou hoohewa ana ia ia.
For the people of Jerusalem and their rulers, by the judgement they pronounced on Jesus, have actually fulfilled the predictions of the Prophets which are read Sabbath after Sabbath, through ignorance of those predictions and of Him.
28 Aole ne i lona ia lakou kekahi hala e make ai, aka, aku la lakou ia e make ia.
Without having found Him guilty of any capital offence they urged Pilate to have Him put to death;
29 A pau ne la na mea i nona, i ka hookaia e lakou lawe mai la lakou ia ia, mai ka lauu mai a maloko o ka hale.
and when they had carried out everything which had been written about Him, they took Him down from the cross and laid Him in a tomb.
30 Na ke Akua no ia i houla mai mai ka make mai.
"But God raised Him from the dead.
31 Ikeia mai la no ia i na la he mai ka i hele pau me ia, mai mai a Ierusalema na lakou no ia i aku ai i kanaka.
And, after a few days, He appeared to the people who had gone up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem and are now witnesses concerning Him to the Jews.
32 Ke hui aku nei makou i ka olela mukai ia oukou, i ka olela hoopunipuni i i na kupuna;
And we bring you the Good News about the promise made to our forefathers,
33 Oia ka ke Akua i mai nui i ka lakou mue mama ia mukau, i kona ana mai ia Iesu; e like me ka mea i palapalaia ma ka Halelu elua, O oe no ka'u Keiki, i keia la wau i hoohanau ai ia oe.
that God has amply fulfilled it to our children in raising up Jesus; as it is also written in the second Psalm, 'Thou art My Son: to-day I have become Thy Father.'
34 A no kona hoala ana mai ia ia mai ka make mai aole hoi ia e hoi hou i ka palaho, i mai la ia penei, E haawi aku wau ia oukou i ka lokomaikai oiaio o Davida.
And as to His having raised Him from among the dead, never again to be in the position of one soon to return to decay, He speaks thus: 'I will give you the holy and trustworthy promises made to David.'
35 No ia mea, i mai no hoi ia ma kahi e, Aole oe e haawi aku i kau mea hoano e ike i ka palaho.
Because in another Psalm also He says, 'Thou wilt not give up Thy Holy One to undergo decay.'
36 Aka, o Davida, hookauwa aku la ia na kona hanauna, ma ka manao o ke Akua, a hiamoe iho la ia, a hui pu ia iho la me kona poe kupuna, a ike i ka palaho.
For David, after having been useful to his own generation in accordance with God's purpose, did fall asleep, was gathered to his forefathers, and did undergo decay.
37 Aka, o ka mea a ke Akua i hoala mai ai, aole ia i ike i ka palaho.
But He whom God raised to life underwent no decay.
38 No ia mea, e ike pono oukou, e na kanaka, na hoahanau, ma ona la, ua haiia'ku ia oukou ke kala ana o ka hala.
"Understand therefore, brethren, that through this Jesus forgiveness of sins is announced to you;
39 A o na mea a pau, aole e hike ia oukou ma ke kanawai o Mose ke hoaponoia, ua hoaponoia no ma ona la ka poe manaoio a pou.
and in Him every believer is absolved from all offences, from which you could not be absolved under the Law of Moses.
40 Nolaila e malama pono oukou, o hiki mai ananei maluna o oukou, ka mea i oleloia mai ai e na kaula;
Beware, then, lest what is spoken in the Prophets should come true of you:
41 E ka poe hoowahawaha, e nana mai oukou, e pilihua hoi, a e hoomawale; no ka mea, ke hana nei au i ka hana i ko oukou mau la ina e hai aku kekahi ia oukou ia hana ina aole no oukou e mai.
'Behold, you despisers, be astonished and perish, because I am carrying on a work in your time--a work which you will utterly refuse to believe, though it be fully declared to you.'"
42 I ka hele ana o na Iudaio iwaha o ka halehaluwai, nonui aku la ma kanaka e ae i hai hou ia mai keia mau olelo ia lakou ia la Sabuti mai.
As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue, the people earnestly begged to have all this repeated to them on the following Sabbath.
43 A i ka hoi ana o ke ka halehalawai, he nui Ioa ka poe haipule, a me ka poe haipule i huli mea i hahai aku ia Paula, lana me; na luna ne i olelo mai ia lakou a hooikaika mai ia lakou e ka pau ma ka maikai e ka Akua.
And, when the congregation had broken up, many of the Jews and of the devout converts from heathenism continued with Paul and Barnabas, who talked to them and urged them to hold fast to the grace of God.
44 A hiki i ka la Sabati pau Ioa ke kulanakauhale i ke, e i ka olelo a ke Akua.
On the next Sabbath almost the whole population of the city came together to hear the Lord's Message.
45 A ike aku la ka poe Iudaio i ka nui e kanaka, pinu Ioa lakau i ka, hoopahala aku la i na mea a Paule i olelo ai, a olelo heino aku la.
Seeing the crowds, the Jews, filled with angry jealousy, opposed Paul's statements and abused him.
46 Alaiila, hooikaika nui la e Pualo laua me Barenaba, i mai la, He mea pono ke hai mua ia ia oukou ka olelo a ke Akua; ua kapae oukou ia mea, a ua mauao oukou ia oukou iho, aole oukou e pono ke ola loa, eia hoi, ke huli aku nei maua i ko na aina e. (aiōnios g166)
Then, throwing off all reserve, Paul and Barnabas said, "We were bound to proclaim God's Message to you first. But since you spurn it and judge yourselves to be unworthy of the Life of the Ages--well, we turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
47 No ka mea, pela ka Haku i kauoha mai ai ia makou, Ua hoonoho wau ia oe i malamalama no ko na aina e, i lilo oe i mea e ola'i a hiki i na kukulu o ka honua.
For such is the Lord's command to us. "'I have placed Thee,' He says of Christ, 'as a light to the Gentiles, in order that Thou mayest be a Saviour as far as the remotest parts of the earth.'"
48 A lohe ko na aina e i keia, olioli lakou, a hoonani aku la lakou i ka olelo a ka Haku: a o ka poe i waeia no ke ola loa, manaoio aku no lakou. (aiōnios g166)
The Gentiles listened with delight and extolled the Lord's Message; and all who were pre-destined to the Life of the Ages believed. (aiōnios g166)
49 A haiia no boi ka olelo a ka Haku ma ia aina a pau.
So the Lord's Message spread through the whole district.
50 Hookonokono aku la ka poe Iudaio i na wahine haipule koikoi, a me na mea kiekie o ke kulanakauhale, a pai mai la lakou ma ka hoomaau no Paulo a me Barenaba, a kipaku aku la ia laua mai ko lakou wahi aku.
But the Jews influenced the gentlewomen of rank who worshipped with them, and also the leading men in the city, and stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas and drove them out of the district.
51 A lulu aku la laua i ka lepo o ko laua mau wawae ia lakou, a hele mai la laua i Ikonio.
But they shook off the dust from their feet as a protest against them and came to Iconium;
52 Piba loa iho la na haumana i ka olioli, a me ka Uhane Hemolele.
and as for the disciples, they were more and more filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
