< Ioane 3 >

1 O KEKAHI kanaka o ka poe Parisaio, o Nikodemo kona inoa, he alii o na Iudaio:
Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jewish people.
2 Hele aku la ia io Iesu la i ka po, i aku la ia ia, E Rabi, ua ike makou he kumu oe i hele mai nei mai ke Akua mai: no ka mea, aole e hiki i kekahi kanaka ke hana i keia mau hana mana au e hana nei, ke ole ke Akua me ia.
This man came to him at night, and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do, unless God is with him."
3 Olelo mai la o Iesu ia ia, i mai la, Oiaio, he oiaio ka'u e olelo aku nei ia oe, Ina e hanau hou ole ia ke kanaka, aole e hiki ia ia ke ike aku i ke aupuni o ke Akua.
Jesus answered him, "Truly, truly, I tell you, unless one is born again he cannot see the Kingdom of God."
4 Ninau aka la o Nikodemo ia ia, Pehea la e hiki ai i ke kanaka ke hanauia i kona wa kahiko? e hiki anei ia ia ke komo hoa iloko o ka opu o kona makuwahine, a e hanauia mai?
Nicodemus said to him, "How can anyone be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb, and be born?"
5 Olelo mai la o Iesu, Oiaio, he oiaio ka'u e olelo aku nei ia oe, Ina e hanau ole ia ke kanaka i ka wai, a me ka Uhane, aole e hiki ia ia ke komo iloko o ke aupuni o ke Akua.
Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I tell you, unless one is born of water and Spirit he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God.
6 O ka mea i hanauia na ke kino, he kino no ia; a o ka mea i hanauia na ka Uhane, he uhane ia.
That which is born of the flesh is flesh. That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Mai kahaha kou naau i ka'u i olelo aku ai ia oe, E pau oukou i ka hanau hou e pono ai.
Do not be surprised that I said to you, 'You must be born again.'
8 Ke pa nei ka makani i kana wahi i makemake ai, a lohe no oe i kona halulu, aole nae oe i ike i kana wahi i hele mai ai, aole hoi i kana wahi e hele aku ai: pela hoi na mea a pau i hanauia e ka Uhane.
The wind blows where it wants to, and you hear its sound, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit."
9 Olelo aku la o Nikodemo, i aku la, Pehea la e hiki ai keia mau mea.
Nicodemus answered and said to him, "How can these things be?"
10 Olelo mai la o Iesu, i mai la ia ia. He kumu oe na ka Iseraela, aole anei oe i ike ia mau mea?
Jesus answered him, "Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not understand these things?
11 Oiaio, he oiaio ka'u olelo aku nei ia oe, O ka makou mea i ike ai, o ka makou ia e olelo nei, a o ka makou mea i nana'i, oia ka makou e hoike nei; aole hoi oukou i hoomaopopo i ka mea a makou e hoike nei.
Truly, truly, I tell you, we speak that which we know, and testify of that which we have seen, but you do not accept our testimony.
12 Ina ua oleie wau i na mea o keia ao, a manaoio ole oukou, pehea la oukou e manaoio ai, ke olelo wau ia oukou i na mea iloko o ka lani?
If I told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?
13 Aohe kanaka i pii iluna i ka lani, o ka mea wale no i iho mai, mai ka lani mai, o ke Keiki a ke kanaka, o ka mea iloko o ka lani.
And no one has ascended into heaven, but he who descended out of heaven, the Son of Man, who is in heaven.
14 A e like me ka Mose kau ana i ka nahesa iluna ma ka waonahele, pela e pono ai ke Keiki a ke kanaka e kaulia'i;
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
15 I ole e make ka mea manaoio ia ia, aka, e loaa ia ia ke ola mau loa. (aiōnios g166)
so that everyone who believes in him may have life without end. (aiōnios g166)
16 No ka mea, na aloha nui mai ke Akua i ko ke ao nei, nolaila, ua haawi mai oia i kana Keiki hiwahiwa, i ole e make ka mea manaoio ia ia, aka, e loaa ia ia ke ola mau loa. (aiōnios g166)
For this is how God loved the world: he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have life without end. (aiōnios g166)
17 Aole no hoi i hoouna mai ke Akua i kana Keiki i ke ao nei, i hoohewa'i oia i ko ke ao nei; aka, i ola'i ko ke ao nei ma o na la.
For God did not send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.
18 O ka mea manaoio ia ia, aole ia e hoahewaia; aka o ka mea manaoio ole, ua hoahewaia oia ano, i kona manaoio ole i ka inoa o ke Keiki hiwahiwa a ke Akua.
The one who believes in him is not judged, but the one who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
19 Eia ka mea i hoahewaia'i; ua hiki mai ka malamalama i ke ao nei, aka, ua makemake na kanaka i ka pouli, aole i ka malamalama, no ka mea, ua hewa na hana ana a lakou.
This is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light, because their works were evil.
20 O ka mea e hana ana i na mea ino, oia ke hoowahawaha i ka malamalama, aole hoi ia e hele mai i ka malamalama, o ikea auanei kana hana ana.
For everyone who does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light, so that his works will not be exposed.
21 Aka, o ka mea o hana ana ma ka oiaio, oia ke hele mai i ka malamalama, i akaka ai kana hana ana, ua hanaia ma ka ke Akua.
But the one who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God."
22 A mahope iho o keia mau mea, hele aku la o Iesu me kana poe haumana i ka aina o Iudea; a noho iho la ia ilaila me lakou, a bapetizo iho la.
After these things, Jesus came with his disciples into the land of Judea. He stayed there with them, and was baptizing.
23 A e bapetizo ana no hoi o Ioane ma Ainona e kokoke ana i Salima, no ka mea, ua nui ka wai malaila; a hele mai lakouu; a bapetizoia iho la.
Now John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there. They came, and were baptized.
24 No ka mea, aole i hahaoia o Ioane iloko a ka halepaahao ia ma nawa.
For John was not yet thrown into prison.
25 Ia wa hoopaapaa ae la na haumana a Ioane me na Iudaio no ka hoomaemae ana.
Now a dispute arose between John's disciples with a Jew about purification.
26 A hele aku la lakou io Ioane la, i aku la ia ia, E Rabi, o ka mea me oe ma kela kapa o Ioredane, nona au i hoike ai, aia hoi, ke bapetizo la oia, a ke hele nei na kanaka a pau io na la.
And they came to John, and said to him, "Rabbi, he who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified, look, he is baptizing, and everyone is coming to him."
27 Olelo mai la o Ioane, i mai la, Aole e hiki i ke kanaka ko lawe wale i kekahi mea, ke haawi ole ia mai ia nana mai ka lani moi.
John answered, "No one can receive anything, unless it has been given to him from heaven.
28 O oukou no ko'u poe hoike i ka'u i olelo ai, Aole wau ka Mesia, aka, ua hoounaia mai au mamua ona.
You yourselves bear me witness that I said, 'I am not the Christ,' but, 'I have been sent before him.'
29 O ka mea nana ka wahine mare, o ke kane mare ia: aka, o ka hoaaloha o ke kane mare o ku ana, a e hoolohe ana ia ia, oia ke olioli nui i ka leo o ke kane mare. Ua loaa hoi ia'u keia olioli.
He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. So this joy of mine is now complete.
30 E mahuahua ana no oia, aka, e emi iho auanei hoi au.
He must increase, but I must decrease.
31 O ka mea noluna mai maluna ia o na mea a pau: o ka mea no ka honua, no ka honua ia, a no ka honua hoi kana olelo: o ka mea no ka lani mai, maluna ia o na mea a pau.
He who comes from above is above all. He who is from the earth belongs to the earth, and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.
32 O ka mea ana i ike ai, a i lohe ai hoi, oia kana e hoike ai; aole nae kekahi mea i malama i kana mea i hoike ai.
What he has seen and heard, of that he testifies; and no one receives his witness.
33 O ka mea o malama i kana mea i hoike mai ai, oia ke ae mai, he oiaio ka ke Akua.
He who has received his witness has set his seal to this, that God is true.
34 No ka mea, o ka ke Akua mea i hoouna mai ai, o ka ke Akua olelo kana e olelo ai: no ka mea, aole ke Akua e haawi liilii mai i ka Uhane ia ia.
For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for he does not give the Spirit by measure.
35 Ke aloha nei ka Makua i ke Keiki, a na haawi hoi ia i na mea a pau iloko o kona lima.
The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.
36 O ka mea manaoio i ke Keiki, he ola mau loa kona: aka, o ka mea manaoio ole i ke Keiki, aole ia e ike i ke oia; e kau mai ana ka inaina o ke Akua maluna iho ona. (aiōnios g166)
Whoever believes in the Son has everlasting life, but whoever refuses to believe in the Son won't see life, but the wrath of God remains on him." (aiōnios g166)
