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 men, nor through man, 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 assemblies 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 the Father and our 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 marvel that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in 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.
but there isn’t 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 any “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 any man preaches to you any “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 men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn’t 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 according to man.
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 I didn’t receive it from man, 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 way of living in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the assembly of God and ravaged 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 the Jews’ religion 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 it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through his grace,
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 in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I didn’t 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 visit Peter, 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, behold, 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 assemblies 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.
So they glorified God in me.
