Luka 12
1 I A manawa, ka akoakoa lehulehu loa ana mai o ka ahakanaka, a hehi kekahi maluna o kekahi, olelo mua mai la ia i kana mau haumana, I nui ko oukou malama ia oukou iho i ka mea hu a ka poe Parisaio; o ka hookamani no ia.
At that time, when thousands of the people had come together, in such numbers that they were crushing one another, he said first to his disciples, Have nothing to do with the leaven of the Pharisees, which is deceit.
2 No ka mea, aohe mea i uhiia e pau ole i ka weheia; aole hoi mea i hunaia e pau ole i ka ikeia.
But nothing is covered up, which will not come to light, or secret, which will not be made clear.
3 O ka mea a oukou i olelo ai ma ka pouli, e loheia auanei ia ma ka malamalama, a o ka mea a oukou i olelo ai i na pepeiao, maloko o na keena mehameha, e haiia auanei ia maluna iho o na hale.
So, whatever you have said in the dark, will come to men's hearing in the light, and what you have said secretly inside the house, will be made public from the house-tops.
4 Ke olelo aku hoi au ia oukou, e kuu mau hoaaloha, Mai makau oukou i ka poe pepehi i ke kino, a mahope aku, aole o lakou mea e hiki ke hana.
And I say to you, my friends, Have no fear of those who may put the body to death, and are able to do no more than that.
5 Aka, ke hoike aku nei au ia oukou i ka oukou mea e makau ai; e makau aku oukou i ka mea nona ka mana e hoolei aku iloko o ka luaahi, mahope iho o kana pepehi ana. Oia, o ka'u olelo no ia ia oukou, e makau oukou ia ia. (Geenna g1067)
But I will make clear to you of whom you are to be in fear: of him who after death has power to send you to hell; yes, truly I say, Have fear of him. (Geenna g1067)
6 Aole anei i kuaiia na manu liilii elima i na asario elua? Aole hoi kekahi o lakou i hoopoinaia e ke Akua.
Are not five sparrows given in exchange for two farthings? and God has every one of them in mind.
7 Ua pau no hoi i ka heluia na lauoho o ko oukou mau poo. Nolaila hoi, mai makau oukou; na oi loa aku ko oukou maikai mamua o ko na manu liilii.
But even the hairs of your head are numbered. Have no fear: you are of more value than a flock of sparrows.
8 A ke olelo aku nei au ia oukou, o ka mea e hooiaio ia'u imua i ke alo o kanaka, oia ka ke Keiki a ke kanaka e hooiaio ai imua i ke alo o ka poe anela o ko Akua.
And I say to you that to everyone who gives witness to me before men, the Son of man will give witness before the angels of God.
9 Aka, o ka mea e hoole ia'u imua i kealo a na kanaka, oia ke hooleia imua i ke alo o ka poe anela o ke Akua.
But if anyone says before men that he has no knowledge of me, I will say that I have no knowledge of him before the angels of God.
10 O ka mea e olelo ku e i ke Keiki a ke kanaka, e hiki no ia i ke kalaia; aka, o ka mea e olelo hoino wale i ka Uhane Hemolele, aole loa ia e kalaia.
And if anyone says a word against the Son of man, he will have forgiveness: but for him who says evil words against the Holy Spirit, there will be no forgiveness.
11 A i ka wa e alakaiia'i oukou i na halehalawai, a i na kiaaina, a me na'lii, mai manao nui oukou i ka oukou mea o kamailio ai, a i ka oukou mea e olelo ai;
And when they take you before the Synagogues and the authorities and the rulers, take no thought about what answers you will give, or what you will say:
12 No ka mea, na ka Uhane Hemolele no e ao mai ia oukou, ia hora, i ka mea e pono ai oukou ke olelo aku.
For the Holy Spirit will make clear to you in that very hour what to say.
13 Alaila olelo aku la kekahi o ka ahakanaka ia ia, E ke Kumu, e olelo ae oe i kuu hoahanau e mahele mai i ka waiwai no'u.
And one of the people said to him, Master, give an order to my brother to make division of the heritage with me.
14 I mai la ia, E ke kanaka, nawai au i hoolilo i lunakanawai, a i mea mahele waiwai no oukou?
But he said, Man, who made me a judge or a maker of decisions for you?
15 A olelo mai la oia ia lakou, E manao, a e malama ia oukou iho i ka puniwaiwai; no ka mea, aole no ka nui o ko ke kanaka waiwai kona ola ana.
And he said to them, Take care to keep yourselves free from the desire for property; for a man's life is not made up of the number of things which he has.
16 A olelo mai la oia i ka olelonane ia lakou, i mai la, O kekahi kanaka ua hoohua nui mai la kona aina;
And he said to them, in a story, The land of a certain man of great wealth was very fertile:
17 A nalu iho la ia iloko ona, i iho la, Pehea la wau e hana'i? no ka mea, aole o'u wahi e hoahu ai i ka'u ai.
And he said to himself, What is to be done? for I have no place in which to put all my fruit.
18 I iho la hoi oia, Penei au e hana'i; e wawahi au i ko'u mau halepapaa, a e kukulu hou i mahuahua'e; a malaila au e hoahu ai i ka'u ai, a me kuu waiwai a pau.
And he said, This I will do: I will take down my store-houses and make greater ones, and there I will put all my grain and my goods.
19 A e olelo iho au i kuu uhane, E ka uhane, ua nui kou waiwai i hoahuia no na makahiki he nui wale; e noho nanea oe; e ai no, a e inu no me ka lealea.
And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have a great amount of goods in store, enough for a number of years; be at rest, take food and wine and be happy.
20 Aka, olelo mai la ke Akua ia ia, E ke kanaka naaupo! i keia po, e kiiia'ku ai kou uhane; alaila no wai la ia mau mea au i hoomakaukau ai?
But God said to him, You foolish one, tonight I will take your soul from you, and who then will be the owner of all the things which you have got together?
21 Pela hoi ka mea i hoolakolako waiwai nona iho, a i lako ole i ko ke Akua.
So that is what comes to the man who gets wealth for himself, and has not wealth in the eyes of God.
22 Alaila olelo mai la i kana mau haumana, No ia mea, ke olelo aku nei au ia oukou, Mai manao nui ma ko oukou ola ana, i ka mea e ai ai oukou; aole hoi ma ke kino, i ka mea e aahu ai oukou.
And he said to his disciples, For this reason I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about what food you will take, or for your body, how it may be clothed.
23 Ua oi aku ke ola mamua o ka ai, a o ke kino hoi mamua o ke kapa.
Is not life more than food, and the body than its clothing?
24 E hoomanao i na manu koraka; aole lakou lulu anoano, aole hoi hoahu ai, aole hoi o lakou hale waiwai, aole hoi hale papaa; na ke Akua hoi lakou i hanai: aole anei i oi nui aku oukou mamua o na manu?
Give thought to the ravens; they do not put seeds into the earth, or get together grain; they have no store-houses or buildings; and God gives them their food: of how much greater value are you than the birds!
25 Owai kekahi mea o oukou e hiki i kona manao nui ana ke hooloihi i kona kiekie i hookahi kubita?
And which of you by taking thought is able to make himself any taller?
26 A i ole hoi e hiki ia oukou ke hana i ka mea uuku loa, no ke aha la e manao nui ai no na mea e ae?
If, then, you are not able to do even that which is least, why are you troubled about the rest?
27 E hoomanao i na lilia i ko lakou ulu ana; aole lakou i hana, aole hoi i milo; ke olelo aku nei hoi au ia oukou, o Solomona i kona nani a pau, aole ia i kahiko like ia me kekahi o ia mau mea.
Give thought to the flowers: they do no work, they make no thread; and still I say to you, Even Solomon, in all his glory, was not clothed like one of these.
28 A ina pela ke Akua i kahiko mai ai i ka nahelehele e waiho ana ma ke kula i keia la a i ka la apopo e hooloiia'i iloko o ka umu; aole anei ia e kahiko io mai ia oukou, e ka poe paulele kapekepeke?
But if God gives such clothing to the grass in the field, which today is living, and tomorrow will be burned in the oven, how much more will he give clothing to you, O men of little faith?
29 Mai hoopapau oukou ma ka mea e ai ai oukou, a ma ka mea e inu ai oukou. Mai noho hoi a kanalua.
And do not give overmuch thought to your food and drink, and let not your mind be full of doubts.
30 No ka mea, na na lahuikanaka o keia ao i hoopapau ma ia mau mea a pau; a he maopopo no i ko oukou Makua, o na mea ia e pono ai oukou.
For the nations of the world go in search of all these things: but your Father has knowledge that you have need of them.
31 Aka, e hoopapau nui oukou ma ke aupuni o ke Akua; alaila o ua mea la kekahi e haawiia no ia oukou.
But let your chief care be for his kingdom, and these other things will be given to you in addition.
32 Mai makau oukou, e ka ohana uuku; no ka mea, o ka makemake o ko oukou Makua e haawi i ke aupuni ia oukou.
Have no fear, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
33 E kuai lilo aku i ko oukou waiwai, a e haawi manawalea aku. E hoolakolako ia oukou iho i mau aa moni nahaehae ole, i waiwai pau ole ma ka lani, kahi hiki ole ai i ka aihue, kahi e ino ole ai i ka mu.
Give what property you have in exchange for money, and give the money to the poor; make for yourselves money-bags which will not get old, wealth stored up in heaven which will be yours for ever, where thieves will not come nor worms put it to destruction.
34 No ka mea, ma kahi e waiho ai ko oukou waiwai, malaila pu no hoi ko oukou naau.
For where your wealth is, there will your heart be.
35 E kakooia ko oukou mau puhaka, i aa hoi ko oukou mau kukui;
Be ready, dressed as for a journey, with your lights burning.
36 A e hoolike hoi oukou me ka poe kanaka e kali ana i ko lakou naku, ke hoi mai ia mai ka ahaaina mare mai, e hiki ia lakou ke wehe koke ia ia i kona hiki ana mai a kikeke.
And be like men who are looking for their lord, when he comes back from the bride-feast; so that when he comes to the door, it will be open to him quickly.
37 Pomaikai ka poe kauwa a ka haku e ike ai e kiai ana i kona wa e hiki mai ai. He oiaio ka'u e olelo aku nei ia oukou, e kakoo no oia ia ia iho, a e hoonoho oia ia lakou e ai; a e hele mai ia e lawelawe na lakou.
Happy are those servants who are watching when the lord comes; truly I say to you, he will make himself their servant and, placing them at the table, he will come out and give them food.
38 A i hiki mai ia i ka lua paha o ka wati, a i hiki mai ia i ke kolu paha o ka wati, a ike mai ia lakou pela na pomaikai ua poe kauwa la.
And if he comes in the second division of the night or in the third, and they are watching for him, happy are those servants.
39 I ike hoi oukou i keia, ina i ike ka mea hale i ka hore e hiki mai ai ka aihue, ina ua kiai no ia, aole ia e kuu aku i kona hale e wawahiia mai.
But be certain of this, that if the master of the house had had knowledge of the time when the thief was coming, he would have been watching, and would not have let his house be broken into.
40 Nolaila, e noho makaukau hoi oukou, no ka mea, e hiki mai ana ke Keiki a ke kanaka, i ka hora e manao ole ia e oukou.
So be ready: for the Son of man is coming at a time when you are not looking for him.
41 Alaila ninau aku la o Petero ia ia, E ka Haku, no makou anei kau e olelo nei i keia olelonane? no na mea a pau anei?
And Peter said to him, Lord, are these words said to us only, or to all men?
42 A olelo mai la ka Haku, Owai la hoi ka puuku malama pono me ke akamai e hooliloia'e e kona Haku i luna no kona poe ohua, e haawi ma ka manawa pono, i kauwahi ai na lakou?
And the Lord said, Who then is the wise and responsible servant whom his lord will put in control of his family, to give them their food at the right time?
43 Pomaikai na kauwa la ke ike mai kona haku ia ia e hana ana pela i kona hiki ana mai.
Happy is that servant who, when his lord comes, is doing so.
44 Ke olelo aku nei au ia oukou, E hoolilo oia ia ia i mea nana e malama i kana mau mea a pau.
Truly I say to you, he will put him in control of all his goods.
45 Aka, i olelo kela kauwa iloko o kona naau, Ua hoopanee kuu haku i kona hoi ana mai; a i hoomaka hoi e pepehi i na kauwa kane a me na kauwa wahine, e ai ana hoi, a e inu ana a ona;
But if that servant says to himself, My lord is a long time coming; and goes about giving blows to the men-servants and the women-servants, feasting and taking overmuch wine;
46 E hoi mai no ka haku o ua kauwa la, i ka la e kiai ole ai ia, a i ka hora e manao ole ai ia, a e t hahau ia ia a moku, a e haawi i kona uku me ka poe manaoio ole.
The lord of that servant will come at a time when he is not looking for him, and at an hour when he is not ready for him, and he will have him cut in two and will give him his part in the fate of those who have no faith;
47 A o ke kauwa i ike i ka makemake o kona haku, aole hoi i hoomakaukau, aole hoi i hana mamuli o kona makemake, oia ke hahau nui ia.
And the servant who had knowledge of his lord's desires and was not ready for him and did not do as he was ordered, will be given a great number of blows;
48 A o ka mea i ike ole, a hana hoi i na mea e pono ai ka hahau ana, oia ke hahau uuku ia. O ka mea ua haawiia ia ia ka mea nui, ia ia hoi e kii hou ia mai ai ka mea nui; a i nui ka mea i waihoia i ke kanaka, he nui no hoi ka mea e noi hou ia mai ia ia.
But he who, without knowledge, did things for which punishment is given, will get only a small number of blows. The man to whom much is given, will have to give much; if much is given into his care, of him more will be requested.
49 Ua hele mai nei au e hoolei i ke ahi ma ka honua, heaha hoi ko'u makemake e, ina i hoaia.
I came to send a fire on the earth, and it may even now have been lighted.
50 He bapetizo ko'u e hapetizoia'i; a ua pilikia hoi au a pau ia!
But there is a baptism which I have to undergo; and how am I kept back till it is complete!
51 Ke manao nei anei oukou ua hele mai nei au e haawi i ke kuikahi ma ka honua! Ke olelo aku nei au ia oukou, Aole; aka i ke ku e.
Is it your opinion that I have come to give peace on earth? I say to you, No, but division:
52 No ka mea ma neia hope aku, e ku e ana na mea elima iloko o ka hale hookahi, o ke kokookolu i ke kokoolua, a o ke kokoolua i ke kokookolu.
For from this time, a family of five in one house will be on opposite sides, three against two and two against three.
53 E ku e mai ka makuakane i ke keikikane, a o ke keikikane i ka makuakane; a o ka makuwahine i ke kaikamahine, a o ke kaikamahine i ka makuwahine; a o ka makuahonoaiwahine i kana hunonawahine, a o ka hunonawahine i kona makuahonoai wahine.
They will be at war, the father against his son, and the son against his father; mother against daughter, and daughter against mother; mother-in-law against daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.
54 A olelo mai la ia i ka ahakanaka, A ike oukou i kekahi ao e hoea mai ana mai ke komohana mai, olelo oukou, E ua auanei; a pela io no.
Then he said to the people, When you see a cloud coming up in the west, straight away you say, There will be rain; and so it is.
55 A i ka wa e pa mai ai ka makani kukuluhema, olelo oukou, E wela auanei; a pela io no.
And when you see a south wind blowing, you say, There will be heat; and so it is.
56 E ka poe hookamani! E hiki no ia oukou ke hoomaopopo i na mea i ikea ma ka lani a ma ka honua; pehea la i maopopo ole ai keia manawa ia oukou?
O false ones! the face of the earth and the heaven is clear to you; how is it that the signs of these times are not as clear to you?
57 No ke aha la hoi i hoomaopopo ole ai oukou nei i ka pono?
And why are you, in your hearts, unable to be judges of what is right?
58 A i kou hele pn ana i ke alii me kou mea i lawehala ai, e hooikaika oe ma ke alanui i weheia'i oe e ia, o kai kela ia oe i ka lunakanawai, a na ka lunakanawai oe e haawi i ka ilamuku, a na ka ilamuku hoi oe e hahao iloko o ka halepaahao.
For if anyone has a cause at law against you, and you are going with him before the ruler, make an attempt, on the way, to come to an agreement with him, for if you do not, he may take you before the judge and the judge will give you up to the police, and they will put you in prison.
59 Ke olelo aku nei au ia oe, aole loa oe e puka e mai, aia pau loa ia mea ia oe i ka ukuia.
I say to you, You will not come out of it till you have made payment to the very last farthing.
