Oihana 7
1 NINAU aku la ke kahuna nui, Pela no anei keia mau mea?
Then said the high priest, Are these things so?
2 I mai la keia, E na kanaka, na hoahanau, a me na makua, e hoolohe mai; Ua ikea mai ke Akua nani e ko kakou kupuna e Aberahama, i kona noho ana ma Mesopotamia, i ka wa mamua aku o kona noho ana ma Harana:
And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken; The God of glory appeared unto our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Charran,
3 A i mai la ia ia, E puka aku oe, mai kou aina aku, a mai kou poe hoahanau aku hoi, a e hele i ka aina a'u e kuhikuhi aku ai ia oe.
And said unto him, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.
4 Alaila, hele aku la ia mawaho o ka aina o ko Kaledaio, a noho iho la ma Harana: a make kona makuakane, mai ia wahi mai i lawe mai ai oia ia ia, a i keia aina a oukou e noho nei.
Then came he out of the land of the Chaldæans, and dwelt in Charran: and from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land, wherein ye now dwell.
5 Aole hoi i haawi ia ia ia i hooilina maloko ona, aole no i kahi e ku ai ka wawae: ua olelo mai nae oia e haawi mai ia ia ia i kuleana nona, a no kana poe mamo mahope ona; ia manawa, aole ana keiki.
And he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not [so much as] to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when [as yet] he had no child.
6 I mai la ke Akua penei, E noho malihini ana kana poe mamo ma ka aina e; a e hooluluhi pio ia ilaila, a e hoomainoinoia mai lakou, i na makahiki eha haneri.
And God spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat [them] evil four hundred years.
7 A o ka lahuikanaka a lakou i hookauwa ai, na'u no ia e hoopai aku, wahi a ke Akua: a mahope iho o keia mau mea, e puka mai lakou iwaho, a e malama mai ia'u ma keia wahi.
And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place.
8 A haawi mai la ia ia i ka berita o ke okipoepoe ana; a hanau mai nana o Isaaka, a okipoepoe iho la ia ia i ka walu o ka la; a na Isaaka o Iakoba, a na Iakoba o na makualii, he umikumamalua.
And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so [Abraham] begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac [begat] Jacob; and Jacob [begat] the twelve patriarchs.
9 A huahuwa iho la na makualii ia Iosepa, a kuai lilo aku la ia ia i ko Aigupita: aia no me ia ke Akua,
And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him,
10 A nana no i hoopakele mai ia ia, mailoko mai o kona mau popilikia a pau, a haawi mai ia ia i ka lokomaikaiia, a me ke akamai imua o Parao, o ke alii o Aigupita; a hoolilo iho la ia ia, i luna maluna o Aigupita, a me kona hale a pau.
And delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
11 Ua hiki mai he wi maluna o ka aina a pau o Aigupita a me Kanaana, a me ka popilikia nui: aole i loaa i ko kakou mau kupuna ka mea ai.
Now there came a dearth over all the land of Egypt and Chanaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance.
12 A lohe ae la o Iakoba he ai ma Aigupita, hoouna mua aku la ia i ko kakou mau kupuna.
But when Jacob heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first.
13 A i ka lua [o ka hele ana] hoike mai o Iosepa ia ia iho i kona poe hoahanau, a hoikeia'ku la ka ohana o Iosepa ia Parao.
And at the second [time] Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph’s kindred was made known unto Pharaoh.
14 Alaila, hoouna mai la o Iosepa, a kii mai la i kona makuakane ia Iakoba, a me kona poe hoahanau a pau; he mau uhane kanahikukumamalima lakou.
Then sent Joseph, and called his father Jacob to [him], and all his kindred, threescore and fifteen souls.
15 Iho ae la o Iakoba i Aigupita, a make iho la ia, a me ko kakou poe kupuna.
So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers,
16 A laweia'ku la lakou i Sukema, a waiho iho la maloko o ka halelua a Aberahama i kuai mai ai i ke kala me na keiki a Hemora, a ka makuakane o Sukema mai.
And were carried over into Sychem, and laid in the sepulchre that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor [the father] of Sychem.
17 A kokoke hiki mai ka wa i oleloia mai ai, a ke Akua i hoohiki mai ai ia Aberahema, mahuahua na kanaka, a lehulehu ae la ma Aigupita;
But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
18 A ku mai la kekahi alii e ae, i ike ole ia Iosepa.
Till another king arose, which knew not Joseph.
19 Hana maalea mai la ia i ko kakou lahuikanaka, a hana ino mai i na kupuna o kakou, a kiola aku la i ka lakou keiki hou, i ole lakou e ola.
The same dealt subtilly with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not live.
20 Ia manawa i hanau ai o Mose, a ua maikai loa ia, a hanaiia oia i ekolu malama maloko o ka hale o kona makuakane.
In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished up in his father’s house three months:
21 A i kona wa i hooleiia'i mawaho, lawe ae la ke kaikamahine a Parao ia ia, a malama iho la i keiki nana.
And when he was cast out, Pharaoh’s daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.
22 Ua aoia o Mose i ke akamai a pau o ko Aigupita, a ua mana hoi ma na olelo, a ma na hana ana.
And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.
23 A hala na makahiki ona he kanaha, kupu iho la ka manao maloko o kona naau, e hele aku e ike i kona poe hoahanau, i ka poe mamo a Iseraela.
And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.
24 A ike aku la ia i kekahi mea e hana ino ia'ua, kokua aku la oia ia ia, a hooponopono mamuli o ka mea i hooluhi hewa ia mai, a pepehi aku la i ke kanaka o Aigupita.
And seeing one [of them] suffer wrong, he defended [him], and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian:
25 Manao iho la ia e hoomaopopo auanei kona poe hoahanau e haawi mai ana ke Akua i ola no lakou, ma kona lima; aka, aole lakou i ike.
For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not.
26 A ia la ae, ikea oia ia lakou e paio ana, a koi aku la oia ia laua e kuikahi, i ae la, E na kanaka, he mau hoahanau olua, no ke aha la olua e hana ino nei kekahi i kekahi?
And the next day he shewed himself unto them as they strove, and would have set them at one again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to another?
27 Aka, o ka mea hana ino i ka hoa, kipaku aku la oia ia ia, i aku la, Nawai la oe i hoonoho ai i alii, a i lunakanawai maluna o makou?
But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?
28 Ke manao nei anei oe e pepehi mai ia'u, e like me kou pepehi ana i ke kanaka o Aigupita inehinei?
Wilt thou kill me, as thou diddest the Egyptian yesterday?
29 Holo aku la o Mose no keia olelo, a lilo i malihini ma ka aina Midiana, malaila i hanau ai nana, na keikikane elua.
Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begat two sons.
30 A pau na makahiki hookahi kanaha, ikeia mai la he anela o ka Haku ia ia, ma ka waonahele, ma ka mauna Sinai, maloko o ka lapalapa ahi o ka laau ooi.
And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 A ike aku la o Mose, kahaha aku la i keia mea i ikeia; a hookokoke aku la no hoi ia e makaikai, a hiki mai ka leo o ka Haku io na la,
When Moses saw [it], he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold [it], the voice of the Lord came unto him,
32 Owau no ke Akua o kou mau makua, ke Akua o Aberahama, ke Akua o Isaaka, ke Akua a Iakoba. Haalulu iho la o Mose, a makau ke makaikai aku.
[Saying], I [am] the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and durst not behold.
33 Olelo mai la ka Haku ia ia, E wehe oe i kou mau kamaa, mai kou mau kapuwai aku; no ka mea, o kahi au e ku nei, he aina hoano ia.
Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground.
34 I ka nana ana, ua ike au i ka poino ana o ko'u poe kanaka ma Aigupita, a ua lohe no au i ko lakou kaniuhu ana, a ua iho mai nei au e hoopakele ia lakou: e hele mai hoi oe, a e hoouna aku au ia oe i Aigupita.
I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send thee into Egypt.
35 O ua Mose la, ka mea a lakou i hoole ai, me ka i ana'e, Owai ka mea i hoonoho ia oe, i alii, a i lunakanawai? oia no ka ke Akua i hoouna aku ai i alii, a i ola, ma ka lima o ka anela ana i ike aku ai iwaena o ka laau ooi.
This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send [to be] a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel which appeared to him in the bush.
36 Nana no lakou i alakai iwaho, e hana ana i na mea kupanaha, a me na hoailona ma ka aina o Aigupita, a me ke Kaiula, a ma ka waonahele i na makahiki hookahi kanaha.
He brought them out, after that he had shewed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.
37 O ua Mose la keia, ka mea nana i olelo mai i na mamo a Iseraela, E hoala mai ana ka Haku, ko oukou Akua, i kekahi Kaula, mailoko mai o ko oukou poe hoahanau, e like me au nei; oia no ka oukou e hoolohe aku ai.
This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear.
38 Oia no ka mea maloko o ka ekalesia ma ka waonahele me ka anela nana i olelo mai ia ia, ma ka mauna ma Sinai, a me ko kakou poe kupuna hoi; a loaa no ia ia na olelo hoola, e haawi mai ia kakou.
This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and [with] our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:
39 Aole i makemake ai ko kakou poe kupuna e hoolohe ia ia, aka, kipaku aku la, a ma ka naau, huli hou no lakou i Aigupita,
To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust [him] from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,
40 I ae la ia Aarona, E hana oe i mau akua no kakou, e hele aku mamua o kakou; no ka mea, o ua Mose la, ka mea i alakai mai ia kakou nei, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, aole kakou i ike i kona wahi i lilo aku ai.
Saying unto Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for [as for] this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
41 A ia mau la, hana iho la lakou i bipi keiki, a haawi aku la i mohai na ua kii akua la, a olioli iho la lakou i ka mea a ko lakou mau lima iho i hana'i.
And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
42 Alaila huli aku la ke Akua, a kuu mai la ia lakou e hoomana aku i ka puali o ka lani; e like me ka mea i palapalaia maloko o ka buke a ka poe kaula, E ka ohana a Iseraela e, ua lawe mai anei oukou na'u i na mea i pepehiia, a me na mohai, i na makahiki hookahi kanaha ma ka waonahele?
Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices [by the space of] forty years in the wilderness?
43 A ua kaikai oukou i ka halelewa o Moloka, a me ka hoku o ko oukou akua o Remepana, i na kii a oukou i hana'i, i mea e hoomana aku ai ia lakou; a na'u no oukou e lawe aku ma o aku o Babulona.
Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.
44 Ua loaa no i ko kakou poe kupuna ma ka waonahele, ka halelewahoike, e like me ka olelo ana i olelo mai ai ia Mose, e hana ia mea me ke kumu ana i ike ai.
Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking unto Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seen.
45 O ka mea hoi a ko kakou poe kupuna i lawe a kai mai ai me Iosua, i ke kuleana o ka lahuikanaka e a ke Akua i kipaku aku ai, mai ka maka aku o ko kakou poe kupuna, a hiki wale mai i na la o Davida.
Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;
46 Loaa no hoi ia ia ka lokomaikaiia mai imua i ke alo o ke Akua, noi aku la ia e hoomakaukau i wahi e noho ai, no ke Akua o Iakoba.
Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
47 Na Solomona nae i kukulu i hale nona.
But Solomon built him an house.
48 Aka, aole e noho ka Mea Kiekie maloko o na luakini i hanaia e na lima; e like me ka mea i oleloia mai ai e ke kaula,
Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,
49 O ka lani ko'u nohoalii, a o ka honua hoi ko'u keehana wawae. Heaha ka hale a oukou e kukulu ai no'u? wahi a ka Haku; heaha hoi ko'u wahi e maha ai?
Heaven [is] my throne, and earth [is] my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what [is] the place of my rest?
50 Aole anei na ko'u lima i hana keia mau mea a pau?
Hath not my hand made all these things?
51 E ka poe ai oolea, ka poe i okipoepoe ole ia ma ka naau, a ma ka pepeiao, ua mau loa ko oukou pale ana i ka Uhane Hemolele; e like me ko oukou kupuna, pela no hoi oukou nei.
Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers [did], so [do] ye.
52 Owai kekahi mea o ka poe kaula i hoomaau ole ia e ko oukou poe kupuna? Ua pepehi hoi lakou i ka poe nana i hai mua mai i ka hiki ana mai o ka Mea Hemolele, ka mea a oukou i kumakaia iho nei a pepehi iho la.
Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers:
53 Ua loaa no hoi ia oukou ke kanawai, na ka poe anela i hoolaha mai, aole nae oukou i malama.
Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept [it.]
54 A lohe lakou i keia mau mea, walania iho la ko lakou naau, nau iho la ko lakou mau kui ia ia.
When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with [their] teeth.
55 Aka, ua piha no ia i ka Uhane Hemolele, a haka pono aku la ia i ka lani, a ike aku la i ka nani o ke Akua, a me Iesu e ku ana ma ka lima akau o ke Akua;
But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
56 I mai la ia, Aia hoi, ke ike aku nei au i na lani e hamama ana, a me ke Keiki a ke kanaka e ku ana ma ka lima akau e ke Akua.
And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.
57 Uwa aku la lakou me ka leo nui, papani iho la i ko lakou mau pepeiao, a lele lokahi mai la maluna ona;
Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,
58 Kiola aku la ia ia mawaho o ke kulanakauhale, a hailuku aku la; a waiho iho la na mea hoike i ko lakou aahu ma ka wawae o kekahi kanaka ui, i kapaia o Saulo.
And cast [him] out of the city, and stoned [him]: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man’s feet, whose name was Saul.
59 Hailuku aku la lakou ia Setepano, kahea ana me ka olelo aku, E ka Haku, e Iesu, e hookipa aku oe i kuu uhane.
And they stoned Stephen, calling upon [God], and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
60 Kukuli iho la ia a hea aku la me ka leo nui, E ka Haku, mai kau oe i keia hewa maluna o lakou. A pau kana olelo ana pela, hiamoe iho la ia.
And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
