Oihana 1
1 U A hoonoho aku au, e Teopilo, i ka mooolelo mua, no namea a pau a Iesu i hoomaka'i e hana a e ao mai no hoi,
The former treatise, O Theophilus, I made concerning all that Jesus undertook both to do and to teach;
2 A hiki i ka la i laweia'ku ai ia iluna, mahope o kana kauoha ana mai ma ka Uhane Hemolele i na lunaolelo ana i wae mai ai.
till the day in which He was taken up, after He had by the holy Spirit given instructions to the apostles whom He had chosen:
3 Hoike ola mai no oia ia ia iho ia lakou mahope o kona make ana, ma na hoailona hoike he nui loa, me ka ikeia e lakou i na la ho kanaha, a olelo mai no ia i na mea o ke aupuni o ke Akua:
to whom also He presented Himself alive, after He had suffered, by many certain proofs; being seen among them for forty days, and speaking of the things relating to the kingdom of God.
4 A i kona halawai ana me lakou, kauoha mai la oia ia lakou, aole e haalele ia Ierusalema, aka, e kali i ka ka Makua olelo hoopomaikai, a oukou i lohe ai ia'u.
And meeting them together He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, said He, ye have heard from me;
5 No ka mea, ua bapetizo io no o Ioane me ka wai; aka, e bapetizoia no hoi oukou i ka Uhane Hemolele, mahope iho o na la aohe nui.
for John indeed baptized with water, but ye shall within a few days be baptized with the holy Spirit.
6 No ia mea, i ko lakou akoakoa ana, ninau aku la lakou ia ia, i aku la, E ka Haku, e hoihoi mai anei oe i ke aupuni no ka Iseraela i keia wa?
Being therefore come together they asked Him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?
7 I mai la oia ia lakou, Aole ia oukou ka ike i na wa, a me na kau a ka Makua i waiho ai i kona mana iho.
And He said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or seasons, which the Father hath reserved in his own power.
8 Aka, e loaa no ia oukou ka mana, ke hiki mai ka Uhane Hemolele maluna iho o oukou; a e lilo auanei oukou i poe hoike no'u ma Ierusalema, a ma Iudea a pau, a ma Samaria, a hiki wale aku i ke kihi o ka honua.
But ye shall receive power from the holy Spirit coming upon you: and ye shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and to the uttermost part of the earth.
9 A oki ae la kana olelo ana ia mau mea, e nana aku ana lakou, a laweia'ku la ia iluna; a na ke ao no ia i apo mai, mai ko lakou mau maka aku.
And having said these things, as they were looking upon Him, He was lifted up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight.
10 A i ko lakou haka pono ana aku i ka lani, i kona pii ana, aia hoi, ku kokoke mai la me lakou na kanaka elua, me ka aahu keokeo;
And while they were looking stedfastly toward heaven, as He went up, behold two men in white stood by them;
11 I mai la hoi laua, E na kanaka o Galilaia, no ke aha la oukou e ku nei e nana aku ana i ka lani? O Iesu nei, ka mea i laweia'ku nei i ka lani, mai o oukou aku nei, pela no ia e hoi hou mai ai e like me ka oukou ike ana aku ia ia e pii ana i ka lani.
who said, Ye men of Galilee, why do ye stand gazing up to heaven? This Jesus who is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in the manner ye have seen Him going into heaven.
12 Alaila, hoi aku la lakou i Ierusalema, mai ka mauna aku i kapaia o Oliveta, ua kokoke no ia i Ierusalema, o ko ka la Sabati hele ana.
Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath-day's journey.
13 A komo lakou iloko, pii aku la, a iloko o kekahi keena maluna, malaila lakou i noho ai, o Petero, a me Iakobo, a me Ioane, a me Anederea, a me Pilipo, a me Toma, a me Baretolomaio, a me Mataio, a me Iakobo a Alepaio, a me Simona Zelote, a me Inda ka hoahanau no Iakobo.
And when they were come in to the city, they went up into an upper room, where Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon the zealot, and Jude the brother of James, usually abode.
14 Hoomau iho la lakou nei a pau i ka pule ana, a me ka nonoi aku, me ka lokahi o ka manao, o na wahine hoi kekahi, a me Maria, ka makuwahine o Iesu, a me kona poe hoahanau.
These all persevered with one accord in prayer and supplication with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brethren.
15 I ua mau la la, ku ae la o Petero iwaenakonu o na haumana, i mai la, (o ka nui o ko lakou inoa, hookahi haneri me ka iwakalua, )
And in these days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, (now the number of the persons that were together was about an hundred and twenty, )
16 E na kanaka, na hoahanau, he mea pono e hookoia keia palapala a ka Uhane Hemolele i hai mai ai ma ka waha o Davida no Iuda, ka mea nana i alakai i ka poe i hopu ia Iesu.
and said, Men and brethren, it was necessary that this scripture should be fulfilled, which the holy Ghost spake by the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who was guide to them that apprehended Jesus:
17 No ka mea, ua helu pu ia oia me kakou, a loaa no hoi ia ia kekahi o neia oihana.
for he was numbered with us, and had obtained a part of this ministry.
18 A kuai iho la ia i aina me ka uku no ka hewa; a haule iho la ia ilalo kona poo, nahae iho la iwaenakonu ona, a pahu aku la kona naau a pau iwaho.
(Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling down on his face, burst asunder in the middle, and all his bowels gushed out:
19 A ikea iho la ia mea e ka poe a pau e noho ana ma Ierusalema; nolaila ua kapaia'ku la ia aina, ma ka lakou olelo, Akeledama, o ke ano keia, O ka aina koko.
(and it was known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the field is called in their own dialect, Aceldama, that is, the field of blood: )
20 No ka mea, ua palanalaia ma ka buke Halelu, E lilo kona hale i neoneo, aole loa kekahi e noho ilaila; a, E lawe hoi kekahi i kana oihana.
for it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let none dwell in it; and again, Let another take his office.)
21 Nolaila, o na kanaka i hele pu ai me kakou i na wa a pau loa a ka Haku, a Iesu i hele mai ai, a i hele aku ai iwaena o kakou,
Wherefore it is necessary that one of these men, who have been conversant with us all the time that the Lord Jesus came in and out among us,
22 Mai ka hoomaka ana o Ioane e bapetizo ai, a hiki mai i ka la i laweia'ku ai ia mai o kakou aku, he mea pono e lilo kekahi o lakou i mea hoike pu me kakou i kona alahou ana mai.
from the baptism of John, till the day that He was taken up from us, should be joined with us as a witness of his resurrection.
23 Wae aku la lakou i elua, o Iosepa i kapaia o Baresaba, o Iouseto kekahi inoa ona, a me Matia hoi.
And they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
24 Pule aku la lakou, i aku la, E ka Haku, ka mea ike i ka naau o na mea a pau loa, e hoike mai oe i ka mea o laua nei au e koho mai ai,
And they prayed and said, Thou, Lord, who knowest the hearts of all, shew us, which of these two Thou hast chosen,
25 I lawe pu ia i kekahi o keia oihana, a me ko ka lunaolelo, mai ia wahi mai ko Iuda haule ana, i hele aku ia i kona wahi iho.
to take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas is fallen by his transgression, that he might go to his own place.
26 Hailona iho la lakou, a lilo ka hailona ia Matia; a helu pu ia iho la ia me na lunaolelo he umikumamakahi.
And they gave out their lots, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the apostles.
