Mataio 18
1 I A manawa, hele aku la ka poe haumana io Iesu la, i aku la, Owai la ka mea nui loa iloko o ke aupuni o ka lani?
In that hour, the disciples drew near to Jesus, saying, “Whom do you consider to be greater in the kingdom of heaven?”
2 Kahea aku la o Iesu i wahi keiki uuku, hooku ae la ia ia iwaenakonu o lakou,
And Jesus, calling to himself a little child, placed him in their midst.
3 I mai la, He oiaio ka'u e olelo aku nei ia oukou, ina aole oukou i hoohuliia'e, a e like hoi me na keiki uuku, aole loa oukou e komo iloko o ke aupuni o ka lani.
And he said: “Amen I say to you, unless you change and become like little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
4 O ka mea hoohaahaa ia ia iho e like me keia keiki, oia ka nui loa iloko o ke aupuni o ka lani.
Therefore, whoever will have humbled himself like this little child, such a one is greater in the kingdom of heaven.
5 O ka mea launa aku i kekahi keiki e like me keia no ko'u inoa, oia ke launa mai ia'u.
And whoever shall accept one such little child in my name, accepts me.
6 Aka, o ka mea hoohihia aku i kekahi o keia poe mea uuku o ka poe manaoio mai ia'u, e aho nona ke nakinakiia ka pohaku wili palaoa ma kona a-i, a e hoopaholoia oia i kahi hohonu o ke kai.
But whoever will have led astray one of these little ones, who trust in me, it would be better for him to have a great millstone hung around his neck, and to be submerged in the depths of the sea.
7 Auwe ko ke ao nei no na hoohihia ana! E hiki io mai no na hihia; aka, auwe ke kanaka nana e hoohihia mai!
Woe to a world that leads people astray! Although it is necessary for temptations to arise, nevertheless: Woe to that man through whom temptation arises!
8 Ina e hoohibia mai kou lima a o kou wawae paha ia oe, e oki iho ia mea, a e hoolei aku; e aho nou e komo oopa oe, a mumuku paha iloko o ke ola, i ole e hoolei pu ia'ku oe me kou mau lima elua, a me na wawae elua iloko o ke ahi mau loa. (aiōnios g166)
So if your hand or your foot leads you to sin, cut it off and cast it away from you. It is better for you to enter into life disabled or lame, than to be sent into eternal fire having two hands or two feet. (aiōnios g166)
9 Ina paha e hoohihia mai kou maka ia oe, e poalo ae, a hoolei aku; e aho nou e komo makahi oe iloko o ke ola, i ole e hooleiia oe me na maka elua iloko o ke ahi o Gehena. (Geenna g1067)
And if your eye leads you to sin, root it out and cast it away from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, than to be sent into the fires of Hell having two eyes. (Geenna g1067)
10 E ao oukou, mai hoowahawaha mai i kekahi o keia poe mea uuku: no ka mea, ke olelo aku nei au ia oukou, e nana mau ana ko lakou poe anela i ka lani i ka helehelena o ko'u Makua i ka lani.
See to it that you do not despise even one of these little ones. For I say to you, that their Angels in heaven continually look upon the face of my Father, who is in heaven.
11 A ua hele mai nei ke Keiki a ke kanaka e hoola i ka mea i auwana.
For the Son of man has come to save what had been lost.
12 Heaha ko oukou manao? Ina paha hookahi haneri hipa a kekahi kanaka, a ua auwana kekahi o lakou, aole anei ia e waiho i ka poe kanaiwakumamaiwa, a hele aku ma na mauna e imi i ka mea i nalowale?
How does it seem to you? If someone has one hundred sheep, and if one of them has gone astray, should he not leave behind the ninety-nine in the mountains, and go out to seek what has gone astray?
13 Ina paha e loaa oia ia ia, he oiaio ka'u e olelo aku nei ia oukou, ua oi aku kona olioli no ua hipa la, i ka olioli no na hipa he kanaiwakumamaiwa aole i auwana.
And if he should happen to find it: Amen I say to you, that he has more joy over that one, than over the ninety-nine which did not go astray.
14 Pela hoi, aole e makemake ko oukou Makua i ka lani e lilo aku kekahi o keia poe mea uuku.
Even so, it is not the will before your Father, who is in heaven, that one of these little ones should be lost.
15 Ina e hana hewa mai kou hoahanau ia oe, e hele oe e ao aku ia ia olua wale no. A i hoolohe mai oia ia oe, ua loaa ia oe kou hoahanau.
But if your brother has sinned against you, go and correct him, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you will have regained your brother.
16 A i hoolohe ole mai oia ia oe, e kono aku me oe i hookahi i elua paha, i maopopo ai kela olelo keia olelo ma ka waha o na mea ike maka elua a ekolu paha.
But if he will not listen you, invite with you one or two more, so that every word may stand by the mouth of two or three witnesses.
17 Ina paha e hoolohe ole kela ia laua, alaila, e hai aku ia mea i ka ekalesia; a ina paha e hoolohe ole ia i ka ekalesia no hoi, e hoohalike oe ia ia me ke kanaka e, a me ka lunaauhau.
And if he will not listen to them, tell the Church. But if he will not listen to the Church, let him be to you like the pagan and the tax collector.
18 He oiaio ka'u e olelo aku nei ia oukou, O na mea a oukou e hoopaa ai ma ka honua nei, e hoopaaia hoi lakou ma ka lani; a o na mea a oukou e kala ai ma ka honua nei, e kalaia no hoi lakou ma ka lani.
Amen I say to you, whatever you will have bound on earth, shall be bound also in heaven, and whatever you will have released on earth, shall be released also in heaven.
19 Eia hou, Ke olelo aku nei hoi au ia oukou, ina paha elua o oukou ma ka honua nei e manao like i kekahi mea a laua e noi ai, e haawiia'ku hoi ia na laua e ko'u Makua i ka lani.
Again I say to you, that if two of those among you have agreed on earth, about anything whatsoever that they have requested, it shall be done for them by my Father, who is in heaven.
20 No ka mea, ma kahi e halawai ai na mea elua a ekolu paha ma ko'u inoa, malaila hoi au iwaena pu me lakou.
For wherever two or three are gathered in my name, there am I, in their midst.”
21 Alaila, hele aku la o Petero io na la, i aku la, E ka Haku, ehia na hana hewa ana mai a ko'u hoahanau ia'u, a kala aku au ia ia? ehiku anei?
Then Peter, drawing near to him, said: “Lord, how many times shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Even seven times?”
22 Olelo mai la o Iesu ia ia, Ke i aku nei au ia oe, Aole ehiku wale no; aka, he kanahiku hiku.
Jesus said to him: “I do not say to you, even seven times, but even seventy times seven times.
23 No ia mea, ua like ke aupuni o ka lani me kekahi alii, ka i manao iho e olelo hoakaka me kana poe kauwa no ka lakou aie ana.
Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is compared to a man who was king, who wanted to take account of his servants.
24 I ka hoomaka ana e hoakaka ai, ua kaiia mai kekahi mea aie io na la, he umi tausani na talena kana i aie ai.
And when he had begun taking account, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.
25 Aole hoi ana mea e uku aku ai; kauoha aku la kona haku e kuai lilo ia'ku oia me kana wahine, a me kana mau keiki, a me kana mea a pau loa, i loaa'i ka uku.
But since he did not have any way to repay it, his lord ordered him to be sold, with his wife and children, and all that he had, in order to repay it.
26 Moe iho la ua kauwa la, hoomaikai aku la ia ia, i aku la, E ka haku, e ahonui mai oe ia'u, a e uku aku au ia oe ia mea a pau loa.
But that servant, falling prostrate, begged him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will repay it all to you.’
27 Aloha mai la ka haku i ua kauwa la, kuu mai la ia ia, a kala mai la i kana aie.
Then the lord of that servant, being moved with pity, released him, and he forgave his debt.
28 Hele aku la ua kauwa la iwaho, a halawai me kekahi hoakauwa ona, i aie mai i kana i hookahi haneri denari, lalau aku la ia ia, a umi iho la i kona a-i, i aku la, E uku mai oe ia'u i kau mea i aie.
But when that servant departed, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him one hundred denarius. And taking hold of him, he choked him, saying: ‘Repay what you owe.’
29 Moe iho la kona hoakauwa ma kona wawae, noi mai la ia ia, i mai la, E ahonui mai oe ia'u, a e uku aku au ia oe ia mea a pau loa.
And his fellow servant, falling prostrate, petitioned him, saying: ‘Have patience with me, and I will repay it all to you.’
30 Aole ia i ae aku; aka, hele aku la ia, a hoolei aku la ia ia iloko o ka halepaahao, a pau loa ka aie i ka ukuia.
But he was not willing. Instead, he went out and had him sent to prison, until he would repay the debt.
31 A ike ae la kona mau hoakauwa i ka mea ana i hana'i, minamina loa iho la lakou; a hele lakou, hai aku la i ko lakou haku i na mea a pau i hanaia.
Now his fellow servants, seeing what was done, were greatly saddened, and they went and reported to their lord all that was done.
32 Alaila, kahea aku la kona haku ia ia, i aku la, E ke kauwa ino, ua kala aku no au i kau aie a pau, i kou noi ana mai ia'u;
Then his lord called him, and he said to him: ‘You wicked servant, I forgave you all your debt, because you pleaded with me.
33 Aole anei i pono nou ke aloha aku i kou hoakauwa, me a'u i aloha aku ai ia oe?
Therefore, should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I also had compassion on you?’
34 Huhu aku la kona haku, a haawi aku la ia ia i ka poe kiai halepaahao, a pau loa ae la kana aie i ka ukuia.
And his lord, being angry, handed him over to the torturers, until he repaid the entire debt.
35 Pela hoi i ko'u Makua i ka lani e hana aku ai ia oukou, ina aole oukou a pau e kala aku me ko oukou naau i na hala o ko oukou poe hoahanau.
So, too, shall my heavenly Father do to you, if each one of you will not forgive his brother from your hearts.”
