Oihana 28
1 A HOOPAKELEIA ae la, alaila, ike iho la lakou i ka mokupuni, ua kapaia o Melita.
When we had escaped, then we learned that the island was called Malta.
2 He mea e ka lokomaikai o ia poe kanaka e ia makou; no ka mea, hoaa iho la lakou i ahi, a hookipa mai la ia makou a pau, no ka ua e haule ana, a no ke anuanu.
The natives showed us uncommon kindness; for they kindled a fire, and received us all, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.
3 Lapulapu iho la o Paulo i puapua hoaa, a i kona kau ana ma ke ahi, puka mai la he moonihoawa mailoko mai o ka wela, a pipili iho la i kona lima.
But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and placed them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand.
4 A ike mai la kela poe kanaka e i ua mea nihoawa la e kau ana i kona lima, i ae la lakou kekahi i kekahi, Oiaio no he kanaka pepehi kanaka keia, ua pakele no ia i ke kai, aka, o ka mea hoopai, aole ia i ae mai i kona ola.
When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said one to another, "No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped from the sea, yet Justice has not allowed to live."
5 Nolaila lulu aku la ia i ua mea nihoawa la iloko o ke ahi, aole hoi i loaa ia ia ka poino.
However he shook off the creature into the fire, and was not harmed.
6 Kakali iho la lakou i kona pehu ana, a me ka hina ilalo a make koke; a loihi ko lakou kakali ana, aole hoi i ike ia ia e loaa ana i ka poino, huli hou ae la ko lakou manao, i ae la, He akua ka ia.
But they expected that he would have swollen or fallen down dead suddenly, but when they watched for a long time and saw nothing bad happen to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.
7 Kokoke ma ia wahi ka aina o ka luna o ia moku, o Popelio kona inoa, nana no i kii mai ia makou, a hookipa maikai aku la i na la ekolu.
Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief official of the island, named Publius, who received us, and courteously entertained us for three days.
8 E kaa ana ka makuakane o Popelio i ke kuni, a me ka hi koko. Komo aku la o Paulo io na la, pule aku la, kau iho la i kona lima maluna ona, hoola aku la ia ia.
It happened that the father of Publius lay sick of fever and dysentery. Paul entered in to him, prayed, and laying his hands on him, healed him.
9 Nolaila hanaia ae la keia, o kekahi poe e i loohia i ka mai ma ia mokupuni, hele mai la lakou, a hoolaia iho la.
Then when this was done, the rest also who had diseases in the island came, and were cured.
10 Hoomahalo mai la lakou ia makou, me na mahaloia he nui; a holo makou, kau mai la lakou i na mea e pono ai.
They also honored us with many honors, and when we sailed, they put on board the things that we needed.
11 A hala na malama ekolu, holo aku la makou ma kekahi moku no Alokanederia, i ku ma ia mokupuni i ka hooilo, o Diosekouro ka hoailona.
After three months, we set sail in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, whose sign was "The Twin Brothers."
12 A pae aku la makou ma Surakausa, a noho iho la i na la ekolu.
Touching at Syracuse, we stayed there three days.
13 A mailaila aku makou i holo ai a hiki i Regio, a hala kekahi la, pa mai la ka makani, mai ke kukuluhema mai, a ia la ae, hiki makou i Puteoli:
From there we cast off and arrived at Rhegium. After one day, a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli,
14 A malaila loaa ia makou he mau hoahanau, kaohi mai lakou ia makou e noho me lakou ehiku la; a pela makou i hele aku ai i Roma.
where we found brothers, and were entreated to stay with them for seven days. So we came to Rome.
15 A lohe mai na hoahanau ia makou, malaila mai la lakou i hele mai ai a Apioporo, a me Teriatubereno, e halawai me makou. A ike o Paulo ia lakou, hoomaikai aku la ia i ke Akua, a hoolana mai.
From there the brothers, when they heard of us, came to meet us as far as The Market of Appius and The Three Taverns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God, and took courage.
16 A hiki makou i Roma, haawi aku la ka lunahaneri i ka poe paahao i ke alii o ka poe koa. I aeia'ku la o Paulo e noho kaawale i kona wahi iho, me kekahi koa nana ia i malama aku.
When we entered into Rome, Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who guarded him.
17 A hala na la ekolu, hoakoakoa iho la o Paulo i ka poe koikoi o na Iudaio. A pau lakou i ka hoakoakoaia, i aku la ia ia lakou, E na kanaka, na hoahanau, aole au i hana i kekahi mea i kuee i na kanaka, a me na aoao o na makua; aka ua haawi paaia'ku la au ma Ierusalema i na lima o ko Roma.
It happened that after three days he called together those who were the Jewish leaders. When they had come together, he said to them, "I, brothers, though I had done nothing against the people, or the customs of our fathers, still was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,
18 A hookolokolo mai lakou ia'u, manao iho la e kuu mai, no ka mea, aole he mea ia'u i ku i ka make.
who, when they had examined me, desired to set me free, because there was no cause of death in me.
19 A papa aku la na Iudaio, kaohiia au e hoopii ia Kaisam, aole hoi o'u mea e hoopii aku ai i ko'u lahuikanaka.
But when the Jews spoke against it, I was forced to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything about which to accuse my nation.
20 No keia mea, i kii aku nei au ia oukou, i ike aku au, a e kamailio aku ia oukou; no ka mea, ua paa au i keia kaulahao no ka manaolana o ka Iseraela.
For this cause therefore I asked to see you and to speak with you. For because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain."
21 I mai la lakou ia ia, Aole i loaa ia makou ka palapala mai Iudea mai nou, aole hoi i hoike mai a olelo mai paha kekahi o na hoahanau i hele mai, i hewa ou.
They said to him, "We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor did any of the brothers come here and report or speak any evil of you.
22 Ke makemake nei no hoi makou e hoolohe ia oe i kou manao; no ka mea, ua ike no makou i keia aoao, ua olelo ku e ia i na wahi a pau.
But we desire to hear from you what you think. For, as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against."
23 A i ko lakou hoakaka ana i ka la, alaila hele mai la na mea he nui loa io na la, i kona wahi; hoakaka aku la oia, a mai kakahiaka a ahiahi kona hoike ana aku i ke aupuni o ke Akua, a me ka hooikaika aku ma na mea o Iesu, ma ke kanawai ia Mose, a ma ka na kaula.
When they had appointed him a day, many people came to him at his lodging. He explained to them, testifying about the kingdom of God, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets, from morning until evening.
24 Manaoio iho la kekahi poe i na mea i oleloia mai, a hoomaloka kekahi poe.
Some believed the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved.
25 A i ka like pu ole ana o ko lakou manao kekahi i kekahi, hele aku lakou, mahope iho o ka hai ana aku o Paulo i kahi olelo hou; Pololei wale ka olelo a ka Uhane Hemolele, ma o Isaia la, o ke kaula, i ko kakou poe kupuna,
When they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had spoken one word, "The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah, the prophet, to your fathers,
26 I ka i ana mai, E hele i keia poe kanaka, a e i aku, I ka lohe ana, e lohe auanei oukou, aole nae e ike i ke ano; i ka ike ana, e ike auanei oukou, aole nae e hoomaopopo.
saying, 'Go to this people, and say, in hearing, you will hear, but will in no way understand. In seeing, you will see, but will in no way perceive.
27 Ua manoanoa hoi ka naau o keia poe kanaka, kaumaha ko lakou pepeiao ke lohe, ua hoopili i ko lakou maka; o ike lakou me na maka, a lohe me na pepeiao, a ike hoi ka naau, a e huli mai, a hoola aku au ia lakou.
For this people's heart has grown callous. Their ears are dull of hearing. Their eyes they have closed. Lest they should see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, and I would heal them.'
28 No ia mea, e ike pono oukou, ua hoounaia'ku ke ola o ke Akua i ko na aina e, a e hoolohe mai no lakou.
"Be it known therefore to you, that the salvation of God is sent to the nations. They will also listen."
29 A i kana hai ana aku i keia mau mea, hele aku la na Iudaio, a nui loa iho la ko lakou hoopaapaa ana ia lakou iho.
And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, having a great dispute among themselves.
30 Noho iho la o Paulo a hala na makahiki elua, iloko o kona hale hoolimalimaia, e hookipa ana i ka poe a pau i hele aku io na la,
And Paul stayed two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who were coming to him,
31 Me ka hai mai i ke aupuni o ke Akua, a me ka hoike mai i na mea e pili i ka Haku ia Iesu Kristo, me ka wiwo ole, a me ka papa ole ia aku.
proclaiming the kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, without hindrance.
