Kolosa 1
1 NA Paulo aku, na ka lunaolelo a Iesu Kristo ma ka manao mai o ke Akua, na Timoteo hoi ka hoahanau,
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy my brother, —
2 I ka poe haipule a me na hoahanau manaoio iloko o Kristo, ma Kolosa; no oukou ke aloha a me ka malu mai ke Akua mai, o ko kakou Makua, a me ka Haku o Iesu Kristo.
Unto the holy and faithful brethren in Christ that are, in Colosse, favour unto you, and peace, from our God and Father.
3 Ke hoomaikai aku nei maua i ke Akua, i ka Makua o ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo, e pule mau ana no oukou,
We are giving thanks unto God, the Father of our Lord Jesus [Christ], always, for you, offering prayer, —
4 Ua lohe maua i ko oukou manaoio ana ia Kristo Iesu, a me ko oukou aloha ana i na haipule a pau,
Having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which ye have unto all the saints, —
5 No ka pono e manaolanaia'i, e waiho ana no oukou ma ka lani: o ka mea a oukou i lohe mua ai maloko o ka olelo oiaio o ka eua nelio;
Because of the hope that is lying by for you in the heavens, of which ye heard before, in the word of the truth of the glad-message,
6 I hiki mai io oukou la e like me ia ma ka honua a pau; a ua hua mai hoi i ka hua, me ia hoi iwaena o oukou, mai ka la i lohe ai oukou, a i ike ai hoi i ke aloha o ke Akua, ma ka oiaio.
When it presented itself unto you; even as, in all the world also, it is bearing fruit and growing, even as also among you, from the day when ye heard, and came personally to know the favour of God in truth,
7 E like mo ka oukou hoolohe ana ia Epapera i ko maua hoakauwa aloha, i ko Kristo kahunapule hoopono no oukou;
Even as ye learned [it] from Epaphras, our beloved fellow-servant, who is faithful in our behalf, as a minister of the Christ,
8 Nana no i hoike mai ia maua i ko oukou aloha ma ka naau.
Who also hath made evident unto us your love in spirit.
9 Nolaila hoi, mai ka manawa mai i lohe ai maua, aole maua i hooki i ka pule no oukou, me ka noi aku i hoopihaia mai oukou me ka ike i kona makemake, a me ka naanao io ma ka Uhane;
For this cause, we also, from the day when we heard [of you], cease not, in your behalf, praying and asking—that ye may be filled unto the personal knowledge of his will, in all spiritual wisdom and discernment,
10 I hele oukou ma ka pono o ka Haku, i na mea a pau i oluoluia mai ai, e hua mai ana i ka hua ma na hana maikai a pau, me ka mahuahua ana ae o ka ike ana i ke Akua.
So as to walk worthily of the Lord, unto all pleasing, in every good work, bearing fruit, and growing in the personal knowledge of God,
11 E hooikaika nui ia mai oukou e kona mana nani, i ke kupaa ana, a me ke ahonui a me ka olioli;
With all power, being empowered, according to the grasp of his glory, unto all endurance and long-suffering with joy,
12 Me ka hoomaikai aku i ka Makua nana kakou i hoopono mai, i loaa mai ai ia kakou ka pono e ili mai ana i ka poe haipule i ke ao.
Giving thanks unto the Father that hath made you sufficient for your share in the inheritance of the saints in the light,
13 Nana hoi kakou i hoola, mai ka mana mai o ka pouli, a ua lawe hoi oia ia kakou iloko o ke aupuni o kana Keiki punahele;
Who hath rescued us out of the authority of the darkness, and translated [us] into the kingdom of the Son of his love;
14 Iloko ona ke ola no kakou i kona koko, o ke kala ana'e o ka hewa.
In whom, we have our redemption—the remission of our sins, —
15 Oia hoi ka like me ke Akua i nana ole ia, oia hoi ka mua o na mea a pau i hanaia'i.
Who, is an image of the unseen God, Firstborn of all creation, —
16 No ka mea, ua hanaia e ia na mea a pau, o ko ka lani a me ko ka honua, i nanaia, a i nana ole ia, o na nohoalii, o na haku, o na luna, a me na'lii: ua hauaia na mea a pau ma ona la, a nona no hoi.
Because, in him, were created all things in the heavens and upon the earth, the things seen and the things unseen, whether thrones or lordships or principalities or authorities, —they all, through him and for him, have been created,
17 Oia hoi ka mua o na mea a pau, a ma ona la no hoi i mau ai na mea a pau.
And, he, is before all, and, they all, in him, hold together;
18 Oia hoi ke poo o ke kino, o ka ekalesia: oia ka makamua, o ka hanau mua hoi mai ka make mai; i lilo ia i pookela iwaena o na mea a pau.
And, he, is the head of the body, the assembly, Who is the beginning, Firstborn from among the dead, in order that, he, might become, in all things, himself, pre-eminent; —
19 No ka mea, o ka pono no ia i ka Makua e noho nui ka pono a pau iloko ona;
Because, in him, was all the fullness well pleased to dwell,
20 A ma ona la e hoolaulea ai i na mea a pau ia ia iho, e hoomaiu ana ma ke koko o kona kea; ma ona la, i ko ka honua nei, a me ko ka lani.
And, through him, fully to reconcile all things unto him, making peace through the blood of his cross, —[through him]—whether the things upon the earth or the things in the heavens;
21 O oukou kekahi, ka poe i ku e i kekahi manawa, ka poe enemi i ko oukou manao ana ma na hana hewa, o kana ia i hoolaulea ae nei,
And, you, who at one time were estranged and enemies in your mind in your wicked works, yet, now, hath he fully reconciled,
22 Ma kona kino kanaka, i ka make ana, e hoike oia ia oukou he hemolele, he hala ole, a me ka hoohewa ole ia, imua o kona alo;
In his body of flesh, through means of his death, to present you holy and blameless and unaccusable before him, —
23 Ke noho mau aku oukou ma ka manaoio, i hookumuia oukou me ka hoopaaia, ke hoonee ole ia ku hoi mai ka manaolana aku o ka euanelio a oukou i lohe ai, ka mea i haiia'ku i na mea a pau i hanaia malalo ae o ka lani, nona iho au o Paulo i hooliloia'e nei i lunalawehana.
If, at least, ye are abiding still in the faith, founded and firm, and not to be moved away from the hope of the glad-message which ye have heard, which hath been proclaimed in all creation which is under heaven, —of which, I Paul, have become minister.
24 ke hauoli nei au i ko'u ehaeha no oukou, e hoopau ana iloko o ko'u kino, i ke koena o ko Kristo ehaeha ana, no kona kino, oia no ka ekalesia.
Now, am I rejoicing in the sufferings on your behalf, and am filling up the things that lack of the tribulations of the Christ, in my flesh, in behalf of his body, which is the assembly,
25 Nona wau i hooliloia'e nei i lunalawehana, e like me ke kauoha a ke Akua i haawi mai ai ia'u no oukou, e hoolaha ae i ka olelo a ke Akua;
Of which, I, have become minister—according to the administration of God which hath been given unto me to you-ward, to fill up the word of God,
26 I ka mea pohihihi hunaia'e mai ka wa kahiko mai, a me na hanauna mai, aka i keia manawa, ua hoikeia mai nei i kana mau haipule; (aiōn g165)
The sacred secret which had been hidden away from the ages and from the generations, but, now, hath been made manifest unto his saints— (aiōn g165)
27 I ka poe a ke Akua i hoomaopopo ai i ka waiwai nani o keia mea pohihihi iwaena o ko na aina e; oia no o Kristo iloko o oukou, ka manaolana no ka nani:
Unto whom God hath been pleased to make known what is the glorious wealth of this sacred secret among the nations, which is Christ in you, the hope of the glory, —
28 Oia ka makou e hai aku nei, e ao ana i na kanaka a pau, a e hoonaauao ana i na kanaka a pau i ka naauao io, e hiki ia makou ke hoike i na kanaka a pau i hemolele iloko o Kristo Iesu.
Whom we are declaring, admonishing every man, and teaching every man, in all wisdom, in order that we may present every man complete in Christ;
29 Nalaila hoi ka'u hana e hooikaika nui nei, e like me kana hana i hooikaika nui mai nei iloko o'u.
Unto which I am even toiling, contending according to his energy which is energising itself in me with power.
