Hebera 6
1 NOLAILA e waiho ana i na hua mua o na olelo a Kristo, e hele aku kakou imua a hiki i ke oo loa ana; aole e hoonoho hou ana i ke kumu no ka mini ana i na hana e make ai, a no ka mauaoio i ke Akua,
Wherefore, dismissing the elementary discourse concerning the Christ, unto maturity, let us be tending, not, again, a foundation, laying down—of repentance from dead works, and of faith towards God,
2 A no ke ao ana i na bapetizo ana, a no ke kau ana o na lima, a no ke alahouana o ka poe make, a me ka hoopai mau loa ana. (aiōnios g166)
Of immersions—in respect of teaching, and of the laying on of hands, of the resurrection of the dead, and of judgment age-abiding; — (aiōnios g166)
3 Oia ka kakou e hana'i, ina i pono ia i ke Akua.
And, this, will we do, if at least, God, permit.
4 No ka mea, aole e hiki i ka poe i hoonaauaoia mai, a i hoao hoi i ka haawina mai ka lani mai, a i hoolakoia hoi e ka Uhane Hemolele,
For it is impossible—as to these who have been, once for all, illuminated, who have tasted also of the heavenly free-gift, and have been made, partners, in a Holy Spirit,
And have tasted God’s utterance to be, sweet, mighty works also of a coming age, (aiōn g165)
6 A ua haule iho no nae, aole e hiki ke hoala hou ia i ka mihi: ua kau hou aku lakou i ke Keiki a ke Akua ma ko kea no lakou iho, me ka hoomainoino aku ia ia ma ke akea.
And who have fallen away, again, to be remoulding them into repentance; seeing they are again crucifying unto themselves the Son of God, and holding him up as an example.
7 O kahi lepo hoi i inu iho i ka ua e haule pinepine ana maluna iho ona, a i hoohua mai no hoi i na hua e pono ai ka poe nana e mahi, ua hoomaikaiia mai ia e ke Akua.
For, land, which hath drunk in, the rain, thereupon ofttimes coming, and which bringeth forth vegetation fit for them for whom it is even cultivated, partaketh of a blessing from God;
8 Aka, o kahi i hookupu mai i ke kakalaioa, a me ka nahelehele ooi, he pono ole ia, ua kokoke ia i ka hoahewaia mai; a o kona hope ka puhiia i ke ahi.
But, should it be bringing forth thorns and briars, it is disapproved, and, unto cursing, nigh, —whose end is for burning.
9 Aka, e ka poe aloha, ke manao nei makou i na mea maikai aku no oukou, i na mea e pili ana i ke ola, i ko makou olelo ana no hoi pela.
But we are persuaded, concerning you, beloved, the things which are better and which contain salvation, though, even thus we speak.
10 Aole he lokoino ke Akua i poina ai ka oukou hana ana, a me ke aloha a oukou i hoike aku ai i kona inoa, i ko oukou malama ana i ka poe hoano, a me oukou hoi e malama nei.
For, not unrighteous, is God, to be forgetful of your work and of the love which ye have shewn forth for his name, in that ye have ministered unto the saints, and are ministering,
11 Ke makemake nei no hoi makou e hoike oukou i ua hooikaika mau ana la, i maopopo loa ai ka manaolana a hiki i ka hopena.
But we covet that, each one of you, be shewing forth the same diligence, unto the full assurance of the hope throughout:
12 Aole e hoomolowa ana oukou, aka, e hoohalike ana me ka poe i loaa ka pono i hai mua ia mai ai, ma ka manaoio a me ke ahonui.
In order that, not slothful, ye may become, but imitators of them who, through faith and patience, were becoming heirs of the promises.
13 No ka mea, i ko ke Akua hai mua ana ia Aberahama, no ka hiki ole ia ia ke hoohiki ma o ka mea oi aku, ua hoohiki iho oia ma ona la iho,
For, when to Abraham God made promise, seeing he had no one greater by whom to swear, He sware, by himself, —
14 I iho la, He oiaio hoi e hoomaikai loa aku ana au ia oe, a e hoonui loa ana au ia oe.
saying—Truly, if blessing I will bless thee, and, multiplying, I will multiply thee;
15 A kali aku la hoi ia me ke ahonui, a loaa mai la ia ia ka pono i hai mua ia mai.
And, thus, being patient, he attained unto the promise.
16 O kanaka hoi ke hoohiki nei ma ka mea i oi aku; a o ka hoohiki ana e hooiaio ai, o ko lakou mea ia e oki ai ka hoopaapaa ana.
For, men, by the greater one, swear, and, with them, an end of all gainsaying by way of confirmation is, the oath:
17 Pela hoi ke Akua i kona makemake ana e hoomaopopo loa i ka poe hooilina o kana pono i ka luli ole ana o kona manao, ua hooiaio mai oia me ka hoohiki ana;
Wherein God, being, more abundantly disposed to shew forth unto the heirs of the promise the unchangeableness of his counsel, mediated, with an oath, —
18 Ma na mea luli ole elua, kahi i hiki ole ai i ke Akua he hoopunipuni, e hoohoihoi loa ia mai ai kakou ka poe i holo i ka puuhonua, e hoopaa i ka manaolana i waihoia mai ma ko kakou alo:
In order that, through means of two unchangeable things, in which it was impossible for God to make himself false, a mighty consolation, we might have, who have fled along to grasp, the fore-lying hope,
19 I ko kakou mea e hoopili aku ai me he heleuma la no ka uhane, he paa, a he panee ole, i ka mea hoi i komo loa ae iloko ae o ka pale;
Which we have, as an anchor of the soul, both secure and firm, and entering into the interior of the veil:
20 I kahi i komo ai no kakou o Iesu o ko kakou mea hele mua, i hooliloia'e hoi i kahuna nui mau loa mamuli o ke ano o Melekisedeka. (aiōn g165)
Where a forerunner in our behalf hath entered, even Jesus, who, according to the rank of Melchizedek, hath become, a high-priest unto times age-abiding. (aiōn g165)
