Oihana 19
1 I KA wa a Apolo i noho ai ma Korineto, kaahele o Paulo i na aina mauka, a hele aku la i Epeso; a loaa ia ia kekahi mau haumana,
And it came to pass, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, having passed through the upper districts, came to Ephesus. And finding certain disciples,
2 I mai la ia lakou, Ua loaa anei ia oukou ka Uhane Hemolele i ko oukou manaoio ana? I aku la lakou ia ia, Aole makou i lohe no ka Uhane Hemolele.
he said to them, Did ye receive the Holy Spirit when ye believed? And they said to him, No, we did not even hear whether there is a Holy Spirit.
3 I mai la kela ia lakou, I ke aha la oukou i bapetizoia'i? I aku la hoi lakou ia ia, I ka bapetizo a Ioane.
And he said, Into what then were ye baptized? And they said, Into John's baptism.
4 I mai la o Paulo, Bapetizo mai la o Ioane i ka bapetizo ana o ka mihi, i ka i ana mai i kanaka, e manaoio aku lakou i ka mea e hiki mai ana mahope ona, o ka Mesia no ia, o Iesu no.
Then said Paul, John indeed baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying to the people, that they should believe on him that was coming after him; that is, on Jesus.
5 A lohe lakou, bapetizoia iho la lakou ma ka inoa o ka Haku, o Iesu.
And when they heard this, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.
6 A kau aku la o Paulo i na lima maluna iho o lakou, hiki mai la ka Uhane Hemolele maluna o lakou; a olelo ae la lakou ma ka olelo e, a wanana mai la.
And when Paul bad laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues, and prophesied.
7 A oia mau kanaka a pau, he umikumamalua lakou.
And the men were about twelve in all.
8 Hele mai la ia iloko o ka halehalawai, olelo wiwo ole mai la, ekolu malama ana i hooakaka ai, a i hoohuli mai ma na mea o ke aupuni o ke Akua.
And he went into the synagogue, and spoke boldly for three months, discoursing and persuading concerning the kingdom of God.
9 A paakiki kekahi poe, a hoomaloka no hoi, olelo ino no lakou i keia aoao imua i ke alo o kanaka; alaila haalele oia ia lakou a hookaawale iho la i na haumana, a hoakaka mai la ia i kela la i keia la, maloko o ke kula o kahi Turano.
But when some were hardened, and believed not, but spoke evil of the way [[of the Lord]] before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, discoursing daily in the school of Tyrannus.
10 Ua hana mau ia keia mea i na makahiki elua; no ia mea, lohe ka poe a pau i noho ma Asia i ka olelo a ka Haku, a Iesu, o ka poe Iudaio a me ka poe Helene.
And this continued for two years, so that all who dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.
11 Na ke Akua no i hana i na mea mana ano e, ma na lima o Paulo.
And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul;
12 No ia mea, laweia'ku la, mai kona kino aku, na hainaka a me na pale, no ka poe mai, a haalele iho la ka mai ia lakou, a puka aku la na uhane ino mailoko aku o lakou.
so that even handkerchiefs, or aprons, were carried from his body to the sick, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out.
13 Hoao nae kekahi poe Iudaio, he poe kuewa mahiki daimonio, a hea aku la lakou i ka inoa o ka Haku o Iesu maluna o ka poe i loohia e na uhane ino, i aku la, Ma o Iesu la, ka mea a Paulo e hai mai nei, ke hookikina aku nei makou ia oukou.
Then some of the wandering Jewish exorcists undertook to name over those who had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, I adjure you by that Jesus whom Paul preacheth.
14 Aia malaila kekahi mau keiki na Sekena, he Iudaio, a he kahuna nui, ehiku lakou i hana pela.
And there were seven sons of Scevas, a Jewish chief priest, who did this.
15 Olelo mai la ka uhane ino, i mai, Ua ike no wau ia Iesu, a ua ike no hoi au ia Paulo, aka hoi, owai oukou?
And the evil spirit answering said, Jesus I knew, and Paul I well know; but who are ye?
16 A o ke kanaka maloko ona ua uhane ino la, lele mai la ia maluna o lakou, a lanakila iho la maluna o lakou, a hana ino mai la, a holo kohana aku la lakou mawaho o ia hale, ua eha hoi.
And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them both, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
17 Ua ikea iho la keia e na Iudaio a pau, a me ua Helene, e noho ana ma Epeso. A kau mai ka makau maluna o lakou a pau, a ua hoonuiia ka inoa o ka Haku o Iesu.
And this became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who dwelt at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
18 He nui na mea o ka poe manaoio i hele mai, a hai mai, a hoike mai i ka lakou mau hana.
And many of the believers came, confessing and declaring their practices.
19 A he nui na mea o ka poe i hana kilokilo, i lawe mai i ka lakou mau buke, a puhi iho la i ke ahi imua o kanaka a pau; a helu lakou i ke kumukuai o ua mau buke la ke kuaiia, he kanalima tausani hapalua.
Many also of those who had practised magical arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men; and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
20 Pela i ulu ai me ka mana ka olelo a ka Haku, a lanakila iho la.
So the word of the Lord grew and prevailed mightily.
21 A pau keia mau mea i ka hanaia, manao iho la o Paulo ma ka uhane, e kaahele ma Makedonia a me Akaia, alaila, e hele i Ierusalema, i ae la, A hiki au ilaila, ma ia hope aku, pono ia'u ke ike ia Roma.
And when these things were ended, Paul resolved to pass through Macedonia and Achaia, and to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome.
22 Hoouna aku la ia ma Makedonia i kekahi mau hoalawehana ona elua, o Timoteo laua me Eraseto; a noho iho la ia ma Asia a liuliu.
And having sent into Macedonia two of those who ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a season.
23 Ia manawa, aole okana mai ka pioloke no keia aoao.
And about that time there arose no small tumult concerning the faith.
24 No ka mea, he kanaka, o Demeterio ka inoa, he kahuna hana kala e hana ana i na luakini kala no Diana, a nui loa iho la ka waiwai i loaa mai i ka poe paahana.
For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, made silver shrines of Diana, and brought no small gain to the craftsmen.
25 Hoakoakoa ae la oia ia lakou, a me ka poe paahana ma ua mea me ia, i aku la, E na kanaka, ua ike no oukou, no keia hana i loaa mai ai ka kakou waiwai.
And having called them together, with the workmen of like occupation, he said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth;
26 Ua ike no hoi oukou, a ua lohe, aole ma Epeso wale no, aka, ma Asia a pau, o Paulo nei i hooikaika aku ai a i hoohuli i kanaka, he nui loa, me ka i ana ae, aohe akua na mea i hanaia e na lima.
and ye see and hear, that this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people, not only of Ephesus, but of almost all Asia, saying, that those are not gods, which are made with hands.
27 No ia mea, aole ka kakou oihana wale no ke aneane lilo i mea ole; aka, o ka heiau o keia akua nui o Diana kekahi, e hoowahawahaia, a kokoke e pau i ke kahuliia ka nani o ka mea i hoomanaia'i e ko Asia a pau, a me ko ke ao nei.
And there is not only danger that this branch of our business will come into disrepute, but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana will be despised, and her magnificence destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worship.
28 A lohe ae la lakou, piha iho la lakou i ka huhu, wawa aku la, i ae la, Nani ka mana o Diana o ko Epeso.
And hearing this they became full of wrath, and kept crying out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians!
29 Piha iho la ke kulanakauhale a pau i ka haunaele. Hopu aku la lakou ia Gaio, a me Arisetareko no Makedonia, he mau hoahele no Paulo, a holo lokahi aku la lakou i ka hale kiaka.
And the city was filled with confusion; and they rushed with one accord into the theatre, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's companions in travel.
30 Makemake iho la o Paulo e komo pu aku mawaena o na kanaka, aole nae na haumana i ae aku ia ia.
And when Paul wished to go in to the people, the disciples would not suffer him.
31 A o kekahi poe luna ma Asia, he poe makamaka nona, hoouna aku la lakou, kauoha ae la ia ia, aole hoike ia ia iho maloko o ka hale kiaka.
And some also of the Asiarchs, who were his friends, sent to him, and entreated him not to venture into the theatre.
32 Nolaila uwauwa ae la kekahi poe i kekahi mea a me kela poe i kela mea; no ka mea, ua mokuahana ua ahakanaka la; a o ka nui o lakou, aole lakou i ike i ka lakou mea i hoakoakoa'i.
Some therefore were crying one thing, and some another; for the assembly was in confusion, and the greater part knew not wherefore they had come together.
33 Hoeueu ae la lakou ia Alekanedero, noloko mai o ka lehulehu, na ka poe Iudaio ia i alakai mai. Peahi aku la o Alekanedero i ka lima, manao iho la ia e hoapono ia ia iho imua o na kanaka.
And they brought forward Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward; and Alexander beckoned with his hand, desiring to make his defence to the people.
34 A ike lakou he Iudaio ia, kahea aku la lakou me ka leo hookahi, a liuliu, elua no hora. Nani ka mana o Diana o ko Epeso.
But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice for about two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians!
35 Hoolai iho la nae ke kakaolelo i ua ahakanaka la, i aku la, E na kanaka o Epeso nei, owai ke kanaka ike ole i ke kulanakauhale o Epeso nei he poe kakou e hoomaua ana ia Diana, i ka mea i haule no Iupita mai?
But when the Recorder had quieted the multitude, he said, Men of Ephesus, who is there among men that doth not know that the city of the Ephesians is guardian of the great Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?
36 No ka hiki ole i kekahi ke hoole i keia mau mea, he pono ia oukou e hoolai, aole hoi e hana wikiwiki.
Since then these things cannot be denied, ye ought to be quiet, and do nothing rashly.
37 Ua kai mai oukou i keia mau kanaka, aole lakou he poe hao heiau, aole hoi i olelo hoino i ko oukou akua.
For ye have brought hither these men, who are neither robbers of temples, nor blasphemers of your goddess.
38 No ia mea, ina i loaa ia Demeterio, a me ka poe paahana me ia, ka hala o kekahi, ua maopopo na la hookolokolo, a me na lunakanawai. E hoopii lakou kekahi i kekahi.
If then Demetrius and the craftsmen with him have a complaint against any one, the courts are open, and there are proconsuls; let them bring their charges against each other.
39 Aka, ina imi oukou ma kekahi mea e, e hooponoponoia ia mea, ma ka ahakanaka ku i ke kanawai.
But if ye ask for any thing further, it shall be determined in the lawful assembly.
40 No ka mea, e hoopiiia mai paha auanei kakou, no ka haunaele o keia la, aole hoi e hiki ia kakou ke hai aku i ka mea i akoakoa'i keia ahakanaka.
For we are in danger of being called to answer concerning this day's riot, there being no ground on which we shall be able to give an account of this concourse.
41 A i ka olelo ana i keia mea, hookuu aku la ia i ua ahakanaka la.
And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
