Ioane 7
1 MAHOPE iho o ia mau mea, kaahele ae la o Iesu i Galilaia: aole ona makemake e kaahele i Iudea, no ka mea, ua imi na Iudaio e pepehi ia ia.
After those things happened, Jesus went around in Galilee [province]. He did not want to travel in Judea [province], because he knew that the Jewish [leaders there] were wanting to kill him.
2 A ua kokoke mai no ka ahaaina kaubalelewa a na Iudaio.
But when the time of the Jewish celebration [called] ‘Celebration of [Living in] Shelters’ was near,
3 No ia mea, olelo aku la kona mau hoabanau ia ia, E haalele oe i keia wahi, a e hele aku i Iudea, i ike ai kau poe haumana i na hana au e hana'i.
Jesus’ [younger] brothers said to him, “[Since many people] here [have left you], you should leave and go to Judea [province and perform] some miracles there, so that your disciples may see them!
4 No ka mea, aohe mea hana malu, ke makemake ia e ikeia mai oia. Ina e hana oe i keia mau mea, e hoike aku oe ia oe iho i ko ke ao nei.
No one who wants to become famous does things secretly. [You say] you are doing these miracles, [so do some miracles there] so that everyone [MTY] can see them!”
5 Aole nae o kona poe hoahanau i manaoio ia ia.
[They said this critically], because even [though they were] his own [younger] brothers, they did not believe he [was from God].
6 Olelo mai la o Iesu ia lakou, Aole i hiki mai ko'u manawa: aka, o ko oukou mauawa ua maopopo mau no ia.
So Jesus said to them, “It is not yet time for me [MTY] [to go to the celebration]. For you, any time is right [to go to the celebration].
7 Aole e inaina mai ko ke ao nei ia oukou; ke inaina mai nei no nae lakou ia'u, no ka mea, owau ke hoike aku no lakou, ua hewa ka lakou hana ana.
[The people] [MTY] [who] ([do not believe in me/do not belong to God]) cannot hate you, but they hate me because I tell them that what they are doing is evil.
8 O oukou ke pii i keia ahaaina: aole au e pii ano i keia ahaaina; no ka mea, aole i hiki maopopo mai ko'u mauawa.
You [(pl)] go ahead to the celebration. I am not going up [to Jerusalem] to the celebration [yet], because now is not the right time for me [to go].”
9 A pau ae la kana olelo ana ia mau mea ia lakou, noho iho ia i Galilaia.
After he said that, Jesus stayed [a little longer] in Galilee.
10 A pii aku la kona poe hoabanau, alaila pii main aku la ia i ka ahaaina, aole i ikea.
However, [a few days] after his younger brothers left to go up to the celebration, he went also. He went, along with [us] disciples, but no others went with us.
11 Nolaila imi iho la ka poe Iudaio ia ia ma ka ahaaina, a ninau ae la lakou, Auhea oia!
At the celebration, the Jewish [leaders] were looking for him. They were asking people, “Has Jesus come?”
12 A nui loa ae la ka hoopaapaa ana o uaahakanaka la nona; olelo mai la kekahi poe, He maikai oia: i mai la kekahi poe, Aole, ke hoopunipuni mai nei ia i na kanaka.
Among the crowds, many people were whispering about Jesus. Some were saying, “He is a good man!” But others were saying instead, “No! He is deceiving the crowds!”
13 Aole nae kekahi i olelo mai nona ma ke akea, no ka makau i ka poe Iudaio.
But no one was speaking so that others could hear them, because they were afraid of the Jewish [leaders] [SYN].
14 Iwaena o ka ahaaina, pii mai la o Iesu iloko o ka luakini, a ao mai la.
In the middle of the days of the celebration, Jesus went to the Temple [courtyard] and began to teach people.
15 A kahaha iho la ka naau o na Iudaio, i ae la, Pehea la i ike ai oia nei i ka palapala, aole ia i aoia?
The Jewish [elders] were amazed [at what he was saying]. They said, “This man never studied [in one of our religious schools]! So (how can he have learned [so much about Scripture]?/it is difficult for us to believe that he has learned [so much about Scripture]!) [RHQ]”
16 Olelo mai la o Iesu ia lakou, i mai la, O ka'u mea e ao aku nei, aole na'u ia, aka, na ka mea nana au i hoouna mai.
Jesus replied to them, “What I teach does not come from myself. It comes from [God], the one who sent me.
17 Ina makemake kekahi e hana i kona makemake, e ike no ia i ka mea a'u e olelo nei, na ke Akua mai ia, aole na'u iho.
Those who choose to do what God wants will find out whether what I teach comes from God or whether I am speaking with [only] my own [authority].
18 O ka mea e olelo aku i kana iho, oia ke imi e hoonani ia ia iho: aka, o ka mea i imi e hoonani i ka mea nana ia i hoouna mai, he oiaio kana, aole he wahahee iloko ona.
Those who speak with [only] their own [authority] do that [only] so that others will honor them. But I am [doing things so that others] will honor the one who sent me, and I am someone who speaks the truth. I never lie.
19 Aole anei o Mose i haawi mai ia oukou i ke kanawai, aole hoi kekahi o oukou e malama i ke kanawai? No ke aha la oukou e imi nei e pepehi ia'u?
[Think about] the laws that Moses gave you [RHQ]. None of you [completely] obeys those laws. So why are you trying to kill me, [saying I do not obey the laws concerning] ([the Sabbath/the Jewish day of rest])?”
20 Olelo aku la ka ahakanaka, i aku la, He daimonio kou, owai la ke imi e pepehi ia oe?
Someone in the crowd answered, “[By saying this you show that] you are crazy (OR, A demon is controlling you)! Certainly no one is trying to kill you!”
21 Olelo mai la o Iesu, i mai la ia lakou, Ua hana iho nei au i kekahi hana, a kahaha ko oukou naau a pau ia mea.
Jesus replied to them, “Because I did a miracle [of healing someone] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), you are all shocked.
22 Na Mose i haawi mai ia oukou ke okipoepoe, aole nae na Mose mai ia, na ka poe kupuna mai; a ke okipoepoe nei oukou i ke kanaka i ka la Sabati.
Moses gave you [a law that you must] circumcise [the male children and that you must do that exactly seven days after they are born. Actually], it was your ancestors, [Abraham and Isaac and Jacob], not Moses, who [started that ritual]. But because of that law, you sometimes circumcise them (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), [but that is working, too]
23 Ina e okipoepoeia ke kanaka i ka la Sabati, i hai ole ia'i ke kanawai o Mose, ke huhu mai nei anei oukou ia'u, i kuu hoola ana i ke kanaka i ka la Sabati?
You [sometimes] circumcise boys (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) so that the law of Moses is not disobeyed {[you] do not disobey the law of Moses}, so (it is ridiculous that you are angry with me, saying [I worked] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) by healing a man!/why are you angry with me, saying [I worked] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) by healing a man?) [RHQ] [Healing someone is far more helpful than circumcising a baby boy]!
24 Mai manao oukou ma ka mea owaho, aka, ma ka pono io oukou e manao ai.
Stop deciding whether my healing this man is wrong according to what you see! Instead, decide according to what is really the right action [to help people]”!
25 Alaila olelo ae la kekahi poe no Ierusalema, Aole anei keia ka mea a lakou e imi nei e pepehi?
Some of the people from Jerusalem were saying, “(This is the man that they are trying to kill!/Isn’t this the man that they are trying to kill?) [RHQ]
26 Aia hoi, ke olelo wiwo ole mai nei ia, aole lakou e olelo aku ia ia. Ua ike maopopo anei ka poe alii, oia no ka Mesia?
He is saying these things (publicly/in front of many people), but our [Jewish] rulers are not saying anything to [oppose] him. Is that because they have decided that he is truly (the Messiah/God’s chosen king)?
27 Ua ike no kakou i kahi i hele mai ai keia: aka, aia hiki mai ka Mesia, aole e ike kekahi i kona wahi i hele mai ai.
But [he cannot be the Messiah, because] we know where this man came from. When the Messiah really comes, no one will know where he comes from.”
28 Nolaila kahea mai la o Iesu i kana ao ana iloko o ka luakini, i mai la, Ua ike oukou ia'u, ike hoi oukou i ko'u wahi i hele mai ai; aole, au i hele mai no'u iho, aka, o ka mea nana au i hoouna mai, he oiaio ia, ka mea a oukou i ike ole ai.
[They said that because they thought Jesus was born in Nazareth]. So while Jesus was teaching [people] in the Temple [courtyard], he shouted, “Yes, [you say that] you know me, and [you think] you know [IRO] where I am from. But I have come here not (because I appointed myself/with my own authority). Instead, [God] is the one who truly sent me. You do not know him.
29 Owau ka i ike ia ia; no ka mea, nona mai wau, a nana hoi au i hoouna mai.
But I know him, because I have come from him. He is the one who sent me!”
30 No ia mea, imi iho la lakou e hopu ia ia; aole nae i lalau aku kekahi lima ia ia, no ka mea, aole i hiki mai kona manawa.
Then they tried to seize him [because he said that he had come from God]. But no one put their hands on him [to do that], because it was not yet the time [MTY] [for him to die].
31 Aka, nui na mea o na ahakanaka la i manaoio ia ia, i iho la, Aia hiki mai ka Mesia, e oi aku anei na hana mana ana e hana mai ai, mamua o na mea a keia kanaka i hana'i?
But many of the crowd believed that he [had come from God]. They said, “When the Messiah comes, he certainly will not do more miracles than this man has done, will he?”
32 Lohe ae la na Parisaio i ka ohumu ana o ua ahakanaka la i keia mau mea nona; hoouna aku la na Parisaio a me na kahuna nui i na ilamuku e lalau ia ia.
The Pharisees heard them whispering these things about him. So they and the chief priests sent some Temple guards to seize him.
33 Alaila olelo mai la o Iesu ia lakou, Aole au e liuliu me oukou, a hoi aku au i ka mea nana au i hoouna mai.
Then Jesus said, “I will be with you for only a short time. Then I will return to the one who sent me.
34 E imi auanei oukou ia'u aole e loaa; a ma ko'u wahi e noho ai, aole loa oukou e hiki aku.
Then you will search for me, but you will not find me. And you will not be able to come to the place where I am.”
35 No ia mea, ninau iho la na Iudaio ia lakou iho, Mahea anei oia e hele ai, i loaa ole ai oia ia kakou? e hele anei ia i ka poe i puehu liilii iwaena o na Helene, a e ao aku i na Helene?
So the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] said to themselves, “Where is this man about to go with the result that we will not be able to find him? [Some Jewish people have] dispersed [and live] among Greek people. He is not intending to go [and live among them] and teach them, is he?
36 Heaha hoi keia mea ana i olelo mai nei, E imi auanei oukou ia'u, aole e loaa; a ma ko'u wahi e noho ai, aole loa oukou e hiki aku?
When he said ‘You will search for me, but you will not be able to find me,’ and when he said ‘You will not be able to come to the place where I am,’ what [did he mean]?”
37 I ka la nui ma ka hope o ua ahaaina la, ku ae la o Iesu, kahea aku la, i ka i ana'e, Ina e makewai kekahi, e hele mai ia io'u nei e inu.
[On each of the seven days of the celebration, the high priest poured out some water on the altar in the Temple to remember how God provided water for the people in the desolate area long ago. But the water he poured did not help anyone who was thirsty. So] on the last day of the festival, which was the most important day, Jesus stood up [in the Temple courtyard] and said with a loud voice, “Those who are thirsty should come to me to drink [what I will give them].
38 O ka mea e manaoio ia'u, e like me ka ka palapala hemolele ii mai ai, e kahe mau mai na muliwai noloko mai o kona opu.
Just like the Scriptures teach, streams of water shall flow out from within those who believe in me, and that water will cause them to live [eternally].”
39 (O keia kana i olelo ai no ka Uhane, ka mea e loaa auanei i ka poe e manaoio ia ia: aole i hiki mai ka Uhane Hemolele ia manawa, no ka mea, aole i hoonaniia o Iesu ia wa.)
When Jesus said that, he was referring to [God’s] Spirit, whom those who believed in Jesus would receive later. Up to that time God had not sent the Spirit [to live within believers], because Jesus had not yet [died and returned to his] glorious [home in] heaven, [from where he would send the Spirit].
40 No ia hoi, ho nui ka poe o ua ahakanaka la i ko lakou lohe ana ia olelo, olelo iho la lakou, He oiaio, o ke Kaula keia.
When some of the crowd heard those words, they said, “Surely this man is the prophet [whom God promised to send who would be like Moses]!”
41 Olelo mai la kekahi poe, O ka Mesis keia. Aka, ninau ae la kekahi poe, E hele mai anei ka Mesia no Galilaia mai?
Others said, “He is the Messiah!” But others, [thinking Jesus was born in Galilee], said, “The Messiah will not come from Galilee [province], will he?
42 Aole anei i i mai ka palapala hemolele, Na na mamo a Davida mai ka Mesia, a no Betelehema mai, ke kulanakauhale o Davida?
(Did [a prophet] not write in the Scriptures that the Messiah will come from [King] David’s family, and be born in Bethlehem, where [King] David lived?/[It is written] in the Scriptures that the Messiah will come from [King] David’s family, and be born in Bethlehem, where [King] David lived!) [RHQ]”
43 Ku e iho la kekahi poe me kekahi poe nona.
So the people were divided because of [what they thought about] Jesus.
44 Makemake iho la kekahi poe e hopu ia ia, aole nae kekahi i kau aku i ka lima maluna ona.
Some people wanted to seize him, but no one tried [to do that].
45 Alaila hoi mai la na ilamuku i na kahuna nui a me ka poe Parisaio; a ninau mai la lakou ia lakou la, No ke aha la i lawe ole mai ai oukou ia ia?
So the Temple guards returned to the chief priests and the Pharisees, [the ones who had sent them to arrest Jesus]. They said to the guards, “Why did you not [seize him and] bring him [here]?”
46 I aku la na ilamuku, Aole loa he kanaka i olelo like me keia kanaka.
They replied, “No one ever spoke such [amazing things] as this man does!”
47 Ninau mai la na Parisaio ia lakou, O oukou anei kekahi i hoopunipuniia?
Then the Pharisees replied, “Have you been deceived {Has [he] deceived you}, too?
48 Ua manaoio no anei kekahi o ka poe alii, a me na Parisaio ia ia?
(None of our rulers nor any of us Pharisees have believed that (he [is the Messiah]!/he [came from God]!)/Have any of our [Jewish] rulers or any of us Pharisees believed that (he [is the Messiah]?/he [came from God]?)) [RHQ]
49 Aka, o keia ahakanaka ike ole i ke kanawai, na hoohewaia lakou.
Not one! But, on the contrary, some of this crowd [have believed in him]. They do not know [the true teachings of] our laws! They will go to hell [for listening to him]!” (questioned)
50 Ninau ae la o Nikodemo ia lakou, (o ka mea i hele io na la i ka po, oia kekahi o lakou, )
Then Nicodemus spoke. He was the one who earlier went to Jesus [at night]. He was also a member of the Jewish council. He said to [the rest of the Council members],
51 Ke hoohewa nei anei ko kakou kanawai i ke kanaka mamua o ka lohe ana ia ia, a ike hoi i kana mea i hana'i?
“[We] have not listened to what he says to find out what he is doing. (It is not permitted in our [Jewish] law [PRS] for us to say, before questioning someone, that we must punish him!/Is it permitted in our [Jewish] law [PRS] for us to say, before questioning someone, that we must punish him?) [RHQ]”
52 Olelo mai la lakou ia ia, i mai la, No Galilaia anei oe? E imi, a ike oe, aohe kaula noloko mai o Galilaia.
They replied to him, “(Are you another [disgusting person] from Galilee?/[You talk like] another [disgusting person] from Galilee!) [RHQ] Read [what is written in the Scriptures] You will find that no prophet comes from Galilee [province, like he does]!”
53 A hoi aku la kela mea keia mea i kona hale iho.
[Then they all left and went to their own homes.
