Pilemona 1
1 NA Paulo he pio no Iesu Kriato, a na Timoteo ka hoahanau, ia Pilemona i ko maua mea aloha, a me ka hoalawehana,
PAULOS, the bondman of Jeshu Meshiha, and the brother Timotheos, to the beloved Philemon, our fellow-labourer,
2 A ia Apia hoi i alohaia, a ia Arekipo i ko kakou hoakoa, a i ka ekalesia hoi iloko o kou hale:
and to our beloved Aphia, and to Arkipos our fellowlabourer, 1 and to the church which is in thy house.
3 Ia oukou ke aloha a me ka maluhia mai ke Akua mai o ko kakou Makua a me ka Haku o Iesu Kristo.
Grace be with thee, and peace, from Aloha our Father, and from our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.
4 Ke hoomaikai mau aku nei au i ko'u Akua, e hoohiki mau ana ia oe ma ka'u pule ana,
I give thanks to Aloha at all time, and remember thee in my prayers.
5 I ko'u lohe ana'ku i kou aloha a me kou manaoio i ka Haku ia Iesu, a i ka poe haipule a pau;
Behold, from (the time) when I heard of thy faith, and the love which thou hast to our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, and to all the saints,
6 I lilo ka hui ana mai o kou manaoio i mea ikaika e hooiaioia mai ai na mea maikai a pau iloko o oukou no Kristo Iesu.
(I have prayed) that there may be communication of thy faith (in) yielding fruits, in works and in the (manifestation of the) knowledge of all good which thou hast in Jeshu Meshiha.
7 No ka mea, he nui no ko makou olioli a me ka oluolu no kou aloha, no ka mea, ua hoohoihoiia ns naau o ka poe haipule e oe, e ka hoahanau.
For we have great joy and consolation, that by thy love the bowels of the saints are refreshed.
8 Nolaila, oiai ua hiki no ia'u iloko o Kristo ke kauleo ikaika aku ia oe i ka mea e pono ai;
Wherefore I have great confidence in the Meshiha to command thee those acts which are righteous,
9 Aka hoi, no ke aloha, ke makemake nei no au e nonoi malie aku, owau no, o Paulo ka elemakule e noho nei, a he pio no hoi no Iesu Kristo;
but for love's sake entreating I entreat of thee, I, Paulos, who am the aged as thou knowest, but now also the bondman of Jeshu Meshiha.
10 Ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe no ka'u keiki a'u i hoohanau aku nei iloko o ko'u paa ana, no Onesimo:
And I entreat of thee for my son, whom I have begotten in my bonds, Onesimos,
11 Ka mea pono ole nou mamua, ano hoi he mea pono io no kaua:
who once was of no use to thee, but (who will) now to thee, as also to me, be greatly useful;
12 Oia ka'u e hoihoi aku nei; nolaila e hookipa oe ia ia, oia hoi, o kou naau iho.
and I have sent him to thee. But thou, as (one) who is my offspring, so receive him.
13 Ua makemake nae au e kaohi ia ia e noho pu me an, i hiki ia ia ke malama mai ia'u nou, i kuu paa ana no ka euanelio:
For I would have retained him with me, that he might have served me for thy sake in the bonds of the gospel;
14 Aka, aole loa o'u manao e hana pela me kou ae ole mai; i like ole keia pono ou me he mea la i kaili wale ia aka, no ka naau mai.
but without thy counsel I was not willing to do any thing, that thy goodness might not be as by constraint, but of thy will.
15 No ka mea, ua hookaawaleia mai paha ia i ka wa pokole i lilo hou aku ia nou mau loa; (aiōnios g166)
But, perhaps, for this he passed away for an hour, that thou mayest hold him for ever; (aiōnios g166)
16 Aole me he kauwa la ma ia hope, aka, me he mea la e oi i ke kauwa, he hoahanau punahele, pela io ia'u, a he oiaio maoli no ia oe, ma ke kino, a maloko hoi o ka Haku.
not henceforth as a servant, but as more than a servant, a beloved brother of mine, and how much more of thine, both in the flesh and in our Lord!
17 A ina i manao mai oe ia'u he hoalawepu, e hookipa oe ia ia e like me ia'u uei.
If then thou art with me a partaker, receive him as mine.
18 A ina ua lawehala oia i kau, a ua aie paha, o kau ia e hooili mai ai maluna o'u;
And if of any thing he hath deprived thee, or oweth, that reckon unto me.
19 Na'u na Paulo nei i kakau iho keia me ko'u lima ponoi, na'u ia e uku aku; aole nae me ka olelo aku ia oe, o oe iho no ka i aie ia oe iho na'u.
I, Paulos, have written with my hands, I will repay thee; for I will not tell thee that thou owest thyself to me.
20 Oiaio hoi, e ka hoahanau, no'u kahi olioli ia oe iloko o ka Haku; e hoomaha mai oe i ko'u naau maloko o ka Haku.
Yes, my brother, I will be refreshed by thee in our Lord; refresh my bowels in the Meshiha.
21 No ka paulele aku i kou hoolohe ana mai, ua palapala aku au ia oe, me ka ike aku hoi e oi aku no kau hana ana mamua o ko'u olelo ana'ku.
Because I am confident of thy hearing me, I have written to thee, and I know that more than I have asked thou wilt do.
22 Eia kekahi, e hoomakaukau e oe i wahi no'u e moe ai; no ka mea, ke manaolana nei au, no ka oukou pule ana e haawiia'ku ai au ia oukou.
But at once also prepare me a house of lodging, for I hope through your prayers I shall be given to you.
23 Ke aloha aku nei ia oe o Epapera, o ko'u hoapio iloko o Kristo Iesu;
Epaphra, a captive with me in Jeshu Meshiha,
24 A o Mareko, a o Arisetareko, o Dema, o Luka hoi, o ko'u mau hoalawehana.
and Markos, and Aristarkos, and Dema, and Luka, my helpers, ask for your peace.
25 E alohaia mai ko oukou uhane e ko kakou Haku e Iesu Kristo. Amene.
The grace of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha be with your spirit, my brethren. Amen.
