Epeso 2
1 O OUKOU hoi kekahi, oka poe i make iloko o na hala a me na hewa;
and also you, he filleth, who were dead in your sins, and in your offences,
2 Ma ia mau mea oukou i hele ai mamua, ma ka aoao o keia ao, mamuli o ke alii ikaika o ka lewa, o ka uhane e hooikaika ana iloko o na keiki hoolohe ole. (aiōn g165)
in the which ye before walked, according to the worldliness of this world, and according to the pleasure of the prince potentate of the air, that spirit which is active in the children of disobedience: (aiōn g165)
3 Me lakou hoi makou a pau i noho ai mamua ma na kuko newa o ko makou kino, e hana ana i na raakemake o ke kino a mo ka naau; a ma ka aoao maoli he poe keiki makou no ka inainaia, e like me na mea e ae.
in which deeds we also, formerly, were conversant, in the cravings of our flesh; and we did the pleasure of our flesh, and of our mind, and were altogether the children of wrath, like the rest.
4 Aka, o ke Akua, ka mea i piha i ko aloha, ma kona makemake nui ana i makemake mai ai ia kakou,
But God who is rich in his mercies, because of the great love with which he loved us,
5 I ko kakou wa make i na hala, ua hoola mai oia ia kakou pu me Kristo, (ma ka lokomaikai oukou e ola'i; )
when we were dead in our sins, quickened us with the Messiah, and rescued us by his grace;
6 A ua hoala pu ae la, a ua hoonoho pu iho la hoi ia kakou i kahi lani ma o Kristo Iesu la:
and resuscitated us with him, and seated us with him in heaven, in Jesus the Messiah:
7 I hoike mai ai oia i na manawa mahope aku i ka nui loa o kona lokomaikai, ma ka hana maikai mai ia kakou ma o Kristo Iesu la. (aiōn g165)
that he might show to the coming ages the magnitude of the riches of his grace, and his benignity towards us in Jesus the Messiah. (aiōn g165)
8 No ka mea, e hoolaia oukou i ka lokomaikai ma ka manaoio; aole hoi no oukou iho keia; he mea haawiia mai ia e ke Akua:
For it is by his grace we are rescued, through faith; and this is not of yourselves, but it is the gift of God:
9 Aole no na hana ana, o kaena auanei kekahi.
not of works, lest any one glory.
10 No ka mea, o kakou kana hana i hanaia ma o Kristo Iesu la, no na hana maikai, a ke Akua i hoomakaukau e mai ai, i haele kakou malaila.
For we are his creation; who are created in Jesus the Messiah, for good works, which God hath before prepared for us to walk in.
11 No ia hoi, e hoomanao oukou, he lahuikanaka e oukou mamua ma ke kino, i kapaia he okipoepoe ole e ka poe i kapaia he okipoepoeia ma ke kino e na lima.
Wherefore be mindful, that ye formerly were carnal Gentiles; and ye were called the uncircumcision, by that which is called the circumcision, and which is the work of the hands in the flesh.
12 Ia manawa, aole oukou i ike ia Kristo, he poe malihini oukou i ke aupuni o ka Iseraela, a he poe kanaka e i na berita o ka olelo hoopomaikai, aole o oukou manaolana, a he poe mea Akua ole ma koia ao.
And ye were, at that time, without the Messiah; and were aliens from the regulations of Israel; and strangers to the covenant of the promise; and were without hope, and without God, in the world.
13 Aka, i neia manawa iloko o Kristo Iesu, o oukou ka poe i mamao aku mamua, ua hookokokeia mai ma ko koko o Kristo.
But now, by Jesus the Messiah, ye who before were afar off, have been brought near by the blood of the Messiah.
14 No ka mea, oia ko kakou mea hookuikahi, ka i hoolilo i na mea elua i hookahi, a ua wawahi iho hoi i ka paku hookaawale iwaena;
For he is himself our peace, who hath made the two become one, and hath demolished the wall which stood in the midst, and the enmity, by his flesh;
15 Ua hoopau ae la hoi oia ma kona kino i ka mea e inaina ai, oia ko kanawai no na kauoha e me na kapu, i hoolilo ai oia i na mea elua i kanaka hou hookahi malalo iho ona, pela e hookuikahi ana;
and by his prescriptions he hath abolished the law of ordinances; that, in himself, he might make the two to be one new man; and he hath made peace,
16 I hoomalu ai hoi oia ia laua elua no ke Akua iloko o ke kino hookahi ma ke kea, e hoopau ana malaila i ka mea e inaina ai:
and hath reconciled both with God, in one body, and hath slain the enmity by his cross.
17 Ua hele mai hoi, a hai mai la i ka olelo hoomalu ia oukou i ka poe mamao aku a me ka poe kokoke.
And he came, and proclaimed peace to you afar off, and to those near:
18 No ia hoi, ua loaa ia kakou i na poe elua ka hookipaia e ia iloko o ka Makua ma ka Uhane hookahi.
because, by him there is access for us both, by one Spirit, unto the Father.
19 Nolaila hoi, aole oukou he poe malihini a me ka poe kanaka e, aka, he poe kamaaina pu oukou me na haipule a me na ohua o ke Akua:
Wherefore, ye are not strangers, nor sojourners, but ye are fellow-citizens with the saints, and of the household of God.
20 Ua kukuluia oukou maluna o ke kahua a na lunaolelo a me na kaula, o Iesu Kristo iho no ka pohaku kumu o ke kihi.
And ye are built upon the foundations of the legates and the prophets; and Jesus the Messiah hath become the head of the corner in the edifice.
21 A ua kapili pono ia ka hale a pau ma o na la, a lilo ae la ia i luakini laa no ka Haku.
And in him all the edifice is framed together, and groweth into a holy temple in the Lord;
22 Ilaila hoi oukou i kapili pu ia'i, i wahi e noho ai o ke Akua ma ka Uhane.
while ye also are builded in him, for a habitation of God through the Spirit.
