Hebera 4

1 NO ia hoi, i ka waiho ana mai o ka olelo mua no ke komo ana iloko o kona wahi maha, e ao kakou o loaa ole ia i kekahi o oukou.

Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left [us] of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.

2 No ka mea, ia kakou kekahi i haiia mai ka euanelio e like me ia ia lakou; aka, o ka olelo i lohea, aole ia i hoopomaikai ia lakou, i ka hoopili ole ia me ka manaoio iloko o ka poe i lohe.

For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard [it].

3 Aka hoi, o kakou ka poe manaoio ke komo iloko o kahi maha, me ia kana olelo ana, Pela hoi aui ko'u huhu i. hoohiki ai, aole lakou e komo iloko o ko'u wahi maha; oia hoi i ka pau ana o na hana mahope iho o ka hookumu ana o ke ao nei.

For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

4 No ka mea, ua olelo mai ia ma kekahi wahi no ka hiku o ka la, peneia, I ka hiku o ka la i hoomaha'i ke Akua i kana mau hana a pau.

For he spake in a certain place of the seventh [day] on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.

5 Eia hoi peneia, Aole lakou e komo iloko o ko'u wahi maha.

And in this [place] again, If they shall enter into my rest.

6 Oia hoi, no ke koe ana mai o ke komo ana o kekahi poe iloko o ua mea la, a o ka poe i hai mua ia'ku ai keia pono, aole lakou i komo no ka manaoio ole;

Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:

7 Ua hoakaka hou mai ia i kekahi la, e olelo ana ma Davida, I keia la, i ka manawa mahope loa mai; ua oleloia mai peneia, I keia la i ko oukou lohe ana i kona leo, mai hoopaakiki i ko oukou naau.

Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

8 No ka mea, ina ua hoomaha aku o Iosua ia lakou, ina aole ia i olelo hou no kekahi la okoa.

For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.

9 Nolaila hoi, e waiho ana no he wahi maha no na kanaka o ke Akua.

There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.

10 A o ka mea hoi i komo iloko o kona wahi maha, ua hoomaha no ia i kana mau hana iho, me ke Akua la hoi i hoomaha ai i kana.

For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God [did] from his.

11 No ia mea, e hooikaika nui kakou e komo iloko o ia wahi maha, i ole ai e haule kekahi mamuli o ua manaoio ole la.

Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.

12 No ka mea, he ikaika, he mana hoi ko ka olelo a ke Akua, he oi nui kona mamua o ko ka pahikaua oi lua, e o ana a kaawale ke ola a me ka uhane, o na ami a me ka lolo; oia ka lunakanawai no ka noonoo a me ka naau.

For the word of God [is] quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and [is] a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

13 Aohe mea nalo i kona maka; aka, ua weheia, a ua akaka loa na mea a pau i ka maka o ka mea ia ia kakou e hai aku ai.

Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things [are] naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

14 A, no ka loaa ana ia kakou ke kahuna nui, i hala aku i na lani, o Iesu, ke Keiki a ke Akua, e hoopaa kakou i ko kakou hooiaio ana.

Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast [our] profession.

15 No ka mea, aole ia kakou ke kahuna i aloha ole mai i ko kakou nawaliwali; aka, o kekahi i hoowalewaleia'ku i na mea a pau me kakou la i hoowalewaleia mai ai, aole hoi ona hala.

For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as [we are, yet] without sin.

16 Nolaila, e hookokoke aku kakou ma ka nohoalii aloha me ka manaolana, i alohaia mai kakou, a i loaa hoi ka lokomaikai e kokua mai ai i ka wa popilikia.

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
