Galatia 1
1 O PAULO, he lunaolelo, aole na kanaka mai, aole hoi ma ko kanaka, aka, ma o Iesu Kristo la, a ma ke Akua ka Makua nana ia i hoala'e mai ka make mai;
Paul, an apostle (not from humans, nor through humans, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead),
2 O ka poe hoahanau no hoi me au, na na ekalesia o Galatia:
and all the brothers who are with me, to the churches of Galatia:
3 E alohaia oukou, e maluhia hoi i ke Akua ka Makua, a i ko kakou Haku ia Iesu Kristo,
Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ,
4 Nana i haawi mai ia ia iho no ko kakou hala, i hoopakele ae oia ia kakou i keia ao ino nei, e like me ka makemake o ke Akua, ko kakou Makua; (aiōn g165)
who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father— (aiōn g165)
to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
6 Ua kahaha iho no wau i ka emoole o ko oukou haalele ana mai i ka mea i kono aku ia oukou iloko o ka euanelio a Kristo, a lilo i ka euanelio okoa:
I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you by the grace of Christ to a different "good news";
7 Aole hoi ho euanelio okoa ia; aka, ke hoohihia nei kekahi poe ia oukou, me ka mauao e hookahuli i ka euanelio a Kristo.
and there is not another "good news." Only there are some who trouble you, and want to pervert the Good News of Christ.
8 Ina paha o makou, a he anela paha mai ka lani mai, e hai aku i ka euanelio i ku e i ka makou i hai aku ai ia oukou, e hoomainoinoia oia.
But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a "good news" other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.
9 Me ka makou i olelo ai mamua, pela hoi au e olelo hou aku nei, a i hai aku kekahi ia oukou i ka olelo ku e i ka mea a oukou i loaa'i, e hoomainoinoia oia.
As we have said before, so I now say again: if anyone preaches to you a "good news" other than that which you received, let him be cursed.
10 Ke hoolaulea nei anei au i kanaka, a i ke Akua anei? Ke imi nei anei hoi au e hoolealea i kanaka? no ka mea, a i hoolealea aku au i kanaka, aole au he kauwa na Kristo.
For am I now seeking the favor of people, or of God? Or am I striving to please people? For if I were still pleasing people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
11 Ke hoike aku nei au ia oukou, e na hoahanau, o ka euanelio a'u i hai aku ai, aole ia ma ka ke kanaka.
But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the Good News which was preached by me, that it is not of human origin.
12 No ka mea, aole i loaa ia'u ia na ke kanaka mai, aole hoi au i aoia mai, aka, ma ka hoikeia mai no e Iesu Kristo.
For neither did I receive it from a human, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.
13 Ua lohe oukou i kuu noho ana mamua ma ko ka Iudaio manao, he nui loa kuu hoomaau ana'ku i ka ekalesia o ke Akua, me ka luku aku.
For you have heard of my former way of life in Judaism, how I severely persecuted the church of God, and tried to destroy it.
14 Ua oi aku au ma ko ka Iudaio manao, mamua o ka nui o ka poe hoahanauna o'u, a he nui loa ko'u ikaika ma na mooolelo a o'u mau kupuna.
I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
15 I ka manawa i manao ai ke Akua nana au i hookaawale ae mai ka opu mai o ko'u makuwahine, a koho mai la ia'u ma kona lokomaikai,
But when God, who had set me apart from my mother's womb and called me through his grace, was pleased
16 E hoike mai i kana Keiki ia'u, i hai aku ai au ia ia i na kanaka e; wikiwiki iho la au, aole au i kuka me ka mea io a me ka mea koko;
to reveal his Son to me, that I might preach him among those who are not Jewish, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood,
17 Aole hoi au i pii aku i Ierusalema, i ka poe lunaolelo mamua o'u: aka, hele aku la au i Arabia, a hoi hou mai la i Damaseko.
nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia. Then I returned to Damascus.
18 A hala na makahiki ekolu, pii aku la au i Ierusalema e ike ia Petero a noho pu iho la au me ia i na la he umikumamalima.
Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Cephas and get information from him, and stayed with him fifteen days.
19 O Iakobo hoi ka hoahanau o ka Haku ka'u i ike, aole ka lunaolelo e ae.
But of the other apostles I saw no one, except James, the Lord's brother.
20 Aia hoi, imua o ke Akua, aole o'u hoopunipuni i na mea a'u e palapala aku nei ia oukou.
Now about the things which I write to you, look, before God, I'm not lying.
21 Ma ia hope mai, hele aku la au i na moku o Suria a me Kilikia;
Then I came to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
22 A ua ike maka ole ia au e na ekalesia o Kristo ma Iudea.
I was still unknown by face to the churches of Judea which were in Christ,
23 He lohe wale no ko lakou, O ka mea nana kakou i hoomaau mai mamua, i neia manawa ke hai aku la ia i ka manao oiaio ana i hoino ai mamua.
but they only heard: "He who once persecuted us now preaches the faith that he once tried to destroy."
24 A hoonani aku la lakou i ke Akua no'u.
And they glorified God because of me.
