Mataio 12
1 I A wa la, hele aku la o Iesu i ka la Sabati mawaena o na mahina ai, pololi iho la na haumana ana, a hoomaka aku la lakou e lalau i na huhui palaoa, a ai iho la.
Around that time Jesus was walking through fields of grain on the Sabbath day. His disciples were hungry so they started to pick ears of grain and eat them.
2 Ike aku la ka poe Parisaio, i aku la lakou ia ia, Aia ke hana nei kau poe haumana i ka mea ku ole i ke kanawai ke hana i ka la Sabati.
When the Pharisees saw this they said to Jesus, “Look at your disciples—they're doing what isn't allowed on the Sabbath!”
3 I mai la oia ia lakou, Aole anei oukou i heluhelu i ka mea a Davida i hana'i, a me ka poe me ia, i ka wa i pololi ai lakou?
But Jesus told them, “Haven't you read what David did when he and his men were hungry?
4 Ia ia i komo aku ai iloko o ka hale o ke Akua, a ai iho la i ka berena hoike, ka mea ku pono ole ia ia ke ai, aole hoi i ka poe me ia, na ka poe kahuna wale no.
He went into the house of God, and he and his men ate the sacred bread that they weren't allowed to eat since it's only for the priests.
5 Aole anei oukou i heluhelu ma ke kanawai, o ka poe kahuna iloko o ka luakini i na la Sabati, ua hana lakou i ka la Sahati, aole hoi a lakou hala?
Haven't you read in the law that on the Sabbath day the priests in the Temple break the Sabbath but are not considered guilty?
6 Ke olelo aku nei au ia oukou, Eia maanei kekahi, ua oi aku ia mamua o ka luakini.
However, I tell you that someone is here who is greater than the Temple!
7 Ina paha i ike oukou i ke ano o keia, O ke aloha ko'u makemake. aole ka mohai, ina ua hoohewa ole mai oukou i ka poe hala ole.
If you'd known the meaning of this Scripture, ‘I want mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you wouldn't have condemned an innocent man.
8 No ka mea, o ko Keiki a ke kanaka, oia ka Haku no ka la Sabati.
For the Son of man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
9 Holo aku la ia mai ia wahi aku, a komo aku la iloko o ko lakou halehalawai.
Then Jesus left and went into their synagogue.
10 Aia ilaila he kanaka, ua maloo kona lima: ninau mai la lakou ia ia, i mea e hoopii aku ai lakou ia ia, i mai la, He mea pono anei ke hoola aku i ka la Sabati?
A man was there with a crippled hand. “Does the law allow healing on the Sabbath?” they asked him, looking for a reason to accuse him.
11 I aku la oia ia lakou, Owai la ke kanaka o oukou hookahi hipa kana, a i haule iho i ka lua i ka la Sabati, aole anei ia e lalau aku ia ia, a e huki mai iluna?
“Suppose you have a sheep and it falls into a hole in the ground on the Sabbath. Don't you grab hold of it and pull it out?” Jesus asked them.
12 Aole anei e oi aku ke kanaka mamua o ka hipa? He mea pono no ke hana maikai i ka la Sabati.
“Don't you think a human being is worth much more than a sheep? So yes, you are allowed to do good on the Sabbath.”
13 Alaila, olelo aku la ia i ua kanaka la, E o mai kou lima: o mai la ia, a ola ae la ia e like me kela lima.
Then he said to the man, “Hold out your hand.” The man held out his hand, and it was healed, just as healthy as the other hand.
14 Hele aku la ka poe Parisaio iwaho, kukakuka ae la lakou i mea e make ai oia ia lakou.
But the Pharisees went out and plotted how to kill Jesus.
15 A ike iho la o Iesu ia mea, hele aku la ia mai ia wahi aku; a he nui ka poe kanaka i hahai aku ia ia, hoola iho la oia ia lakou a pau.
Knowing this, Jesus left, with large crowds following him. He healed all of them,
16 Papa mai la oia ia lakou, aole lakou e hai hoike aku ia ia:
but instructed them not to tell people who he was.
17 I ko ai ka olelo a ke kaula a Isaia, i i mai ai,
This fulfilled what Isaiah the prophet said:
18 Aia hoi kuu kauwa a'u i koho ai, kuu mea aloha, ia ia ka olioli o kuu naau; e kau aku ana au i kuu Uhane maluna iho ona, a e hai aku ia i ke kanawai i na lahuikanaka.
“This is my servant whom I've chosen, The one I love, who pleases me. I will put my Spirit on him, And he will tell the foreigners what's right.
19 Aole ia e hakaka, aole hoi e walaau aku, aole hoi e lohea kona leo ma na alanui.
He won't argue, he won't shout out, And nobody will hear his voice in the streets.
20 Aole e hai ia ia ka ohe pepe, aole hoi ia e kinai i ka uiki e hoopipi ana, a kui aku ia i ke kanawai a lanakila.
He won't break a damaged reed, And he won't extinguish a smoking wick, Until he has proved that his judgment is right,
21 A e paulele hoi na lahuikanaka ma kona inoa.
And foreigners will put their hope in him.”
22 Alaila, haliia mai io na la kekahi kanaka i uluhia e ka daimonio, ua makapo, ua paa hoi ka leo; a hoola iho la kela ia ia, a olelo ae la ka leopaa, a ike ae hi ka makapo.
Then a man was brought to Jesus who was demon-possessed and blind and dumb. Jesus healed him, so that the dumb man could speak and see.
23 Kahaha iho la na kanaka a pau, i ae la, O ka Mamo anei keia a Davida?
All the crowds were amazed, and asked, “Could this really be the son of David?”
24 A lohe ae la ka poe Parisaio, i ae la lakou, Ma o Belezebuba la wale no, ke alii o na daimonio, kana mahiki ana aku i na daimonio.
But when the Pharisees heard this, they replied, “This man can only throw out demons through the power of Beelzebub, the chief of demons!”
25 Ike ae la o Iesu i ko lakou manao ana, i aku la ia lakou, O ke aupuni i mokuahana ia ia iho, e pau ia, a o ke kulanakauhale a o ka poe ohana i mokuahana ia ia iho, aole ia e mau.
Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus told them, “Any kingdom that is divided against itself will be destroyed. No town or household that is divided against itself can stand.
26 Ina paha o Satana e mahiki aku ia Satana, ua mokuahana oia ia ia iho, a pehea la hoi e mau ai kona aupuni?
If Satan drives out Satan, then he's divided against himself—so how could his kingdom stand?
27 Ina paha owau e mahiki aku i na daimonio ma o Belezebuba la, ma owai la hoi e mahiki aku ai na keiki a oukou ia lakou? Nolaila, e lilo lakou i poe hooponopono ia oukou.
If I'm throwing out demons in the name of Beelzebub, in whose name are your people throwing out demons? Your own people prove you're wrong!
28 Ina paha owau e mahiki aku i na daimonio ma ka Uhane o ke Akua, ina ua kokoke mai ke aupuni o ke Akua io oukou nei.
But if I'm throwing out demons through the power of the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you!
29 Pehea la e hikiai i kekahi ke komo iloko o ka hale o ke kanaka ikaika, a hao i kona waiwai? Aia nakinaki ia mamua i ke kanaka ikaika a paa, alaila e hao ia i na mea o kona hale.
Can you enter a strong man's house and take his belongings unless you tie him up first? If you do that then you can take everything in his house.
30 O ka mea aole me au nei, o ko'u enemi no ia; a o ka mea hoiliili pu ole me au, ua hooleilei wale aku no ia.
Those who are not with me are against me, and those who do not gather together with me do the opposite: they are scattering.
31 Ke olelo aku nei hoi au ia oukou, O na hala a pau, a me na olelo hoino e kalaia'na no na kanaka: aka, o ka olelo hoino aku i ka Uhane Hemolele, aole ia e kalaia no na kanaka.
That's why I'm telling you that every sin and blasphemy you commit will be forgiven, except blasphemy against the Spirit which won't be forgiven.
32 O ka mea olelo hoino mai i ke Keiki a ke kanaka, e kalaia'na oia; aka, o ka mea olelo hoino i ka Uhane Hemolele, aole loa e kalaia'na oia i keia ao, aole hoi i kela ao aku. (aiōn g165)
Those who say something against the Son of man will be forgiven, but those who say something against the Holy Spirit won't be forgiven, neither in this life nor the next. (aiōn g165)
33 Ina e hoomaikai aku oukou i ka laau, e hoomaikai pu no hoi i ko na hua; aka i ole, alaila e hoino aku i ka laau me ka hoino pu i kona hua; no ka mea, ua ikea ka laau ma kona hua.
Either decide that the tree is good, and its fruit is good, or decide that the tree is bad and its fruit is bad—for the tree is known by its fruit.
34 E ka hanauna moonihoawa! pehea la e hiki ai ia oukou ka poe ino ke olelo i na mea maikai? No ka mea, no ka piha o ka naau e olelo ai ka waha.
You viper's brood, how can you who are evil say anything good? For your mouth simply says what your mind is busy thinking about.
35 O ke kanaka maikai, ua lawe mai ia i na mea maikai mailoko ae o ka waiwai maikai o ka naau: a o ke kanaka ino, ua lawe mai ia i na mea ino mailoko ae o ka waiwai ino.
A good person brings out good from their store of good things, and an evil person brings out evil from their store of evil things.
36 Ke olelo aku nei au ia oukou, O na huaolelo ino a pau a na kanaka e olelo ai, e hookolokoloia'na lakou ia mea, i ka la e hookolokolo ai.
I tell you, people will have to account for every careless thing they say on the Day of Judgment.
37 No ka mea, ma kau mau olelo e hoaponoia'i oe, a ma kau mau olelo e hoahewaia'i oe.
For what you say will either vindicate you or condemn you.”
38 Alaila, olelo mai la kekahi poe kakauolelo a me na Parisaio, i mai la, E ke Kumu, ke ake nei makou e ike aku i hoailona nou.
Then some of the religious teachers and Pharisees came to him and said, “Teacher, we want you to show us a miraculous sign.”
39 Olelo aku la ia, i aku la ia lakou, Ke imi nei ka hanauna hewa, moe kolohe, i hoailona: aole loa e haawiia ka hoailona ia lakou, o ka hoailona a ke kaula a Iona wale no.
“Evil people who don't trust in God are the ones who look for a miraculous sign. The only sign they will be given is the sign of the prophet Jonah,” Jesus told them.
40 E like me Iona ekolu la ekolu po iloko o ka opu o ka ia nui, pela auanei ke Keiki a ke kanaka, ekolu la ekolu po iloko o ka opu o ka honua.
“In the same way Jonah was in the belly of a huge fish for three days and three nights, the Son of man will lie in the earth for three days and three nights.
41 E ku e mai auanei na kanaka o Nineva i keia hanauna i ka la hookolokolo, a e hoohewa mai ia lakou nei; no ka mea, mihi iho la lakou i ka olelo ana a Iona: eia hoi, maanei kekahi i oi aku mamua o Iona.
The people of Nineveh will rise in the judgment together with this generation and they will condemn it because they repented in response to Jonah's message—and as you see, there's someone greater than Jonah here!
42 I ka la hookolokolo e ku e mai auanei ke aliiwahine o ke kukuluhema i keia hanauna, a e hoohewa mai ia lakou nei; no ka mea, i hele mai ia mai na palena o ka honua e hoolohe i ka olelo naauao a Solomona; eia hoi, maanei kekahi i oi aku mamua o Solomona.
The Queen of the South will be raised in the judgment together with this generation and will condemn it because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon—and as you see, there's someone greater than Solomon here!
43 A puka mai ka uhane ino mailoko mai o kekahi kanaka, hele aku no ia ma na wahi panoa, e imi ana i kahi e maha ai, a loaa ole.
When an evil spirit leaves someone, it wanders through deserted places looking for rest, and finds nowhere to stay.
44 Alaila, olelo iho no ia, E hoi ana au i ko'u hale, kahi a'u i puka mai ai. A hiki mai, ike iho la ia, ua kaawale ia, ua kahiliia, a ua hoolakolakoia.
So it says, ‘I'll go back to the place I left,’ and when it returns it finds the place empty, all clean and tidy.
45 Alaila, hele aku no ia, a lawe pu mai me ia i na uhane e ae i ehiku, ua oi aku ko lakou ino i kona iho; komo lakou iloko, a noho ilaila: a hewa loa aku ka hope o ua kanaka la i kona noho ana mamua. Pela auanei no hoi keia hanauna hewa.
Then it goes and brings back seven other spirits even more evil than it is, and it enters and lives there. So the person ends up worse than they were at the beginning. That's the way it will be with this evil generation.”
46 Ia ia i olelo ai i na kanaka, aia ku mai la iwaho kona makuwahine, a me kona poe hoahanau, e ake e olelo pu me ia.
While he was speaking to the crowds, his mother and his brothers arrived and stood outside, wanting to talk to him.
47 I aku la kekahi ia ia, Aia, ke ku mai la iwaho kou makuwahine a me ou mau hoahanau, e ake e olelo pu me oe.
Someone came and told him, “Look, your mother and brothers are outside, wanting to talk to you.”
48 Olelo mai la ia, i mai la i ka mea nana i hai aku ia ia, Owai la ko'u makuwahine a me o'u mau hoahanau?
“Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?” Jesus asked.
49 O mai la ia i kona lima i na haumana ana, i aku la ia, Aia hoi, ko'u makuwahine a me o'u mau hoahanau.
He pointed at his disciples, and said, “Look, they are my mother and my brothers!
50 O ka mea i hana i ka makemake o ko'u Makua i ka lani, oia ko'u kaikaina a me ko'u kaikuwahine, a me ko'u makuwahine.
For those who do the will of my heavenly Father, they are my brother, sister, and mother!”
