Hebera 12
1 NO ka mea hoi, ua hoopuniia kakou e ia poe hoike he nui loa, e waiho aku kakou i na mea kaumaha a pau, a me ka hewa e hoopili wale mai ana ia kakou, e holo kakou me ke ahonui i ka haihai ana i hoomaopopoia mamua o kakou,
Therefore let us also, seeing we are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
2 E nana aku ana hoi ia Iesu, i ka mea nana i hookumu, nana hoi e hoohemolele ko kakou manaoio; nana hoi i hoomanawanui i ke kea me ka manao ole i ka hilahila, no ka olioli i hoomaopopoia mamua ona, a noho iho hoi ma ka lima akau o ka nohoalii o ke Akua.
looking unto Jesus the author and perfecter of [our] faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising shame, and hath sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 E hoomanao hoi oukou i ka mea i hoomanawanui i ke ku e ana mai o ka poe i hana hewa ia ia, o nawaliwali ko oukou manao a maule hoi oukou.
For consider him that hath endured such gainsaying of sinners against themselves, that ye wax not weary, fainting in your souls.
4 Aole oukou i pale aku me ka hookaheia mai o ke koko, i ko oukou paio ana aku i ka hewa.
Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin:
5 Ua poina ia oukou ka olelo hooikaika ia oukou me he poe keiki la, E ka'u keiki, mai hoowahawaha oe i ka hahau ana mai a ka Haku, aole hoi e maule i kona hoeha ana mai ia oe:
and ye have forgotten the exhortation, which reasoneth with you as with sons, My son, regard not lightly the chastening of the Lord, Nor faint when thou art reproved of him;
6 No ka mea, o ka ka Haku mea i aloha mai ai, oia kana i hahau mai ai, a ua hoeha me ka hahau i na keiki a pau ana i aloha mai ai.
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, And scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 A ina i hahauia mai oukou, ua hana mai ke Akua ia oukou me he poe keiki la; no ka mea, auhea la ke keiki i hahau ole ia e ka makuakane?
It is for chastening that ye endure; God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is there whom [his] father chasteneth not?
8 A ina i hahau ole ia mai oukou, me na keiki a pau i hahauia'i, alaila he poe hanau pono ole oukou, aole he poe keiki hanau pono.
But if ye are without chastening, whereof all have been made partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
9 A o ko kakou mau makuakane, no ko kakou kino, ua hahau mai ia kakou, a ua hoomaikai aku kakou ia lakou; aole anei e oi aku ko kakou hoolohe ana i ka Makua o ko kakou mau uhane, i ola kakou?
Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
10 Na lakou no kakou i hahau mai i ka wa pokole mamuli o ko lakou makemake no, aka, nana i hahau mai e pono ai kakou, i loaa pu mai ai ia kakou kona hemolele.
For they verily for a few days chastened [us] as seemed good to them; but he for [our] profit, that [we] may be partakers of his holiness.
11 A o na hahau ana a pau, aole ia i manaoia i kona manawa, he mea olioli, he mea ehaeha no; aka, ma ia hope iho, ua hoohua mai ia i ka hua o ka pono e pomaikai ai no ka poe i hooponoponoia ilaila.
All chastening seemeth for the present to be not joyous, but grievous: yet afterward it yieldeth peaceable fruit unto them that have been exercised thereby, [even the fruit] of righteousness.
12 Nolaila, e hooikaika i na lima palupalu a me na kuli nawaliwali;
Wherefore lift up the hands that hang down, and the palsied knees;
13 A e hoopololei i na alanui no ko oukou mau wawae, i ole ai e okupe ae ka mea oopa; o aho hoi e hoolaia ia.
and make straight paths for your feet, that that which is lame be not turned out of the way, but rather be healed.
14 E hahai ma ke kuikahi me na kanaka a pau, a ma ka hemolele hoi, aohe kanaka i nele ia mea e ike aku i ka Haku.
Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord:
15 E malama hoi oukou o loaa ole mai i kekahi ka hoomaikaiia mai e ke Akua, o kupu mai hoi kekahi mole awaawa iwaena o oukou e hihia'i oukou, a e haumia ai hoi kekahi poe he nui no;
looking carefully lest [there be] any man that falleth short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble [you], and thereby the many be defiled;
16 O lilo paha kekahi i moe kolohe, i haihaia paha e like me Esau, nana i hoolilo aku i ko ka hanau mua pomaikai ana, no ka mea ai hookahi.
lest [there be] any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one mess of meat sold his own birthright.
17 No ka mea, ua ike oukou, i kona makemake ana mahope iho e loaa ia ia ka hoomaikaiia, ua hooleia oia; aole hoi i loaa ia ia kahi e lole hou mai ai, ua imi aku no nae oia ia mea me ka waimaka.
For ye know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected (for he found no place of repentance), though he sought it diligently with tears.
18 Eia hoi, aole oukou i hele mai i ka mauna e hiki ke hoopa kino ia aku, a me ke ahi e lapalapa ana, a me na ao eleele, a me ka pouli, a me ka ino,
For ye are not come unto [a mount] that might be touched, and that burned with fire, and unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
19 Aole hoi i ke kani ana o ka pu, a me ka leo o na olelo, ka mea a ka poe lohe i papa ai aole make hoohui hou ia mai kekahi huaolelo:
and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which [voice] they that heard entreated that no word more should be spoken unto them:
20 (No ka mea, aole i hiki ia lakou ke hoomanawanui i ka papa ana mai, Ina e pili ka holoholona i ka mauna e hailukuia oia, a houhouia paha i ka ihe:
for they could not endure that which was enjoined, If even a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned;
21 A no ka weliweli nui ke nana aku, i iho la o Mose, Ke weliweli nei au me ka haalulu: )
and so fearful was the appearance, [that] Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:
22 Aka, na hele mai no oukou i ka mauna Ziona, a i ke kulanakauhale o ke Akua ola, i ko ka lani Ierusalema, a i ke anaina hiki ole ke heluia o na anela;
but ye are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable hosts of angels,
23 A i ke anaina nui a me ka ekalesia o ka poe makahiapo, i kakauia ko lakou mau inoa ma ka lani, a i ke Akua, ka Lunakanawai o na mea a pau, a i na uhane o ka poe pono i hoohemoleleia,
to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24 A i ka uwao o ka berita hou, ia Iesu, a i ke koko no ka pipi ana, e olelo ana i na mea maikai oi aku mamua o ko Abela.
and to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaketh better than [that of] Abel.
25 Malama oukou, mai haalele i ka mea nana i olelo mai; no ka mea, ina i pakele ole ka poe i haalele i ka mea nana i ao mai ia lakou ma ka honua, aole loa hoi kakou e pakele ke haalele kakou i ka mea i ao mai mai ka lani mai.
See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not, when they refused him that warned [them] on earth, much more [shall not] we [escape], who turn away from him that [warneth] from heaven:
26 Ia manawa ua hoonauwewe mai kona leo i ka honua; aka, ua hai mai nei no ia, i ka i ana, E hoonauwewe hou aku ana au aole i ka honua wale no, aka, i ka lani kekahi.
whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but also the heaven.
27 A o ke ano o na Hou aku ana, o ka hemo ana ia o na mea hoonauweweia, me he mea i hanaia la, i mau hoi na mea e hoonauwewe ole ia.
And this [word], Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.
28 Nolaila, i ka loaa ana ia kakou ke aupuni e hoonauwewe ole ia, e hoopaa kakou i ke aloha, ka mea e pono ai ko kakou malama ana i ke Akua, me ka mahalo, a me ka weliweli pono;
Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe:
29 No ka mea, o ko kakou Akua, he ahi ia e hoopau ana.
for our God is a consuming fire.
