Hoikeana 2
1 E PALAPALA aku oe i ka anela o ka ekalesia ma Epeso; Ke i mai nei ka mea nana e paa ana na hoku ehiku ma kona lima akau, a e hele ana hoi mawaena o na ipu kukui gula ehiku, penei;
“To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: These are the words of Him who holds the seven stars in His right hand and walks among the seven golden lampstands.
2 Ua ike no au i kau hana ana, a me kou luhi, a me kou ahonui, a me ka hiki ole ia oe ke hoomanawanui i ka poe hewa; a ua hoao oe i ka poe i hai mai ia lakou iho he poe lunaolelo, aole ka, a ua ike oe ia lakou, he poe wahahee.
I know your deeds, your labor, and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate those who are evil, and you have tested and exposed as liars those who falsely claim to be apostles.
3 He ahonui kou, a ua hoomanawanui no hoi oe ma ko'u inoa, aole i paupauaho.
Without growing weary, you have persevered and endured many things for the sake of My name.
4 He mea no nae ka'u ia oe, no ka mea, ua haalele oe i kou aloha mua.
But I have this against you: You have abandoned your first love.
5 Nolaila, e hoomanao oe i kou wahi i haule ai, a e mihi hoi, a e hana hoi i na hana mua; a i ole, ea, e hele koke aku au iou la, a e lawe aku i kou ipukukui, mai kona wahi aku, ke mihi ole oe.
Therefore, keep in mind how far you have fallen. Repent and perform the deeds you did at first. But if you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place.
6 O kau hoi keia, ua hoowahawaha oe i ka hana ana a ka poe Nikolaite, o ka mea a'u i hoowahawaha aku ai.
But you have this to your credit: You hate the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
7 O ka mea pepeiao la, e hoolohe ia i ka mea a ka Uhane e olelo nei i na ekalesia; O ka mea lanakila, e haawi no wau ia ia, e ai i ko ka laau o ke ola, ka mea maloko o ka paradaiso o ko'u Akua.
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who overcomes, I will grant the right to eat from the tree of life in the Paradise of God.
8 E palapala aku oe i ka anela o ka ekalesia ma Semurena; Ke i mai nei ka mea mua, a me ka mea hope, o ka mea i make, a i ola hou, menei;
To the angel of the church in Smyrna write: These are the words of the First and the Last, who died and returned to life.
9 Ua ike no au i kau hana ana, a me kou popilikia, a me kou hune, ua waiwai no nae oe; a ua ike au i ka olelo hooino a ka poe i kapa ia lakou iho he poe Iudaio, aole ka, o ka halehalawai lakou o Satana.
I know your affliction and your poverty—though you are rich! And I am aware of the slander of those who falsely claim to be Jews, but are in fact a synagogue of Satan.
10 Mai makau aku i na mea au e pilikia ai: aia hoi, e hahao ana o ka diabolo i kekahi o oukou iloko o ka halepaahao, i hoaoia'i oukou; he umi na la a oukou e kaumaha ai. E ku paa oe ma ka pono a hiki i ka make, a na'u no e haawi aku ia oe i ka lei o ke ola.
Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Look, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison to test you, and you will suffer tribulation for ten days. Be faithful even unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.
11 O ka mea pepeiao la, e hoolohe ia i ka mea a ka Uhane e olelo nei i na ekalesia; O ka mea lanakila, aole loa ia e eha i ka make alua.
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who overcomes will not be harmed by the second death.
12 E palapala aku oe i ka anela o ka ekalesia ma Peregamo; Ke i mai nei ka mea nana ka pahikaua oi lua penei;
To the angel of the church in Pergamum write: These are the words of the One who holds the sharp, double-edged sword.
13 Ua ike no au i kau hana ana, a me kou wahi e noho la, aia ma kahi nohoalii o Satana; a ua paa ia oe ko'u inoa, aole hoi oe i hoole i ko'u manaoio, aole i na la o Anetipasa o ka mea i hoike oiaio no'u; ua pepehiia oia iwaena o oukou, i kahi e noho ai o Satana.
I know where you live, where the throne of Satan sits. Yet you have held fast to My name and have not denied your faith in Me, even in the day when My faithful witness Antipas was killed among you, where Satan dwells.
14 Aka, he mau mea ka'u ia oe, no ka mea, aia no ia oe kekahi poe malama i ka manao o Balaama, nana i ao mai ia Balaka e kau imua o na mamo a Iseraela i ka mea e hina ai, e ai i na mea i kaumahaia na na kii, a e moe kolohe hoi.
But I have a few things against you, because some of you hold to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to place a stumbling block before the Israelites so they would eat food sacrificed to idols and commit sexual immorality.
15 Aia no hoi ia oe kekahi poe malama i ka manao o ka poe Nikolaite, ka mea a'u i hoowahawaha'i.
In the same way, some of you also hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans.
16 Nolaila, e mihi oe; a i ole, ea, e hele koke aku au iou la, a e kaua aku ia lakou, me ka pahikaua o kuu waha.
Therefore repent! Otherwise I will come to you shortly and wage war against them with the sword of My mouth.
17 O ka mea pepeiao la, e hoolohe ia i ka mea a ka Uhane e olelo nei i na ekalesia; O ka mea lanakila, e haawi aku au ia ia e ai i ka mane i hunaia, a e haawi no hoi au ia ia i ka pohaku keokeo, a maluna iho o ua pohaku la, ua palapalaia ka inoa hou, aole mea ike ia inoa, o ka mea wale no ia ia ka pohaku.
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who overcomes, I will give the hidden manna. I will also give him a white stone inscribed with a new name, known only to the one who receives it.
18 E palapala aku oe i ka anela o ka ekalesia ma Tuateira; Ke i mai nei ke Keiki a ke Akua, ka mea nona na maka e like me ka lapalapa o ke ahi, a ua like kona mau wawae me ke keleawe melemele maikai, penei;
To the angel of the church in Thyatira write: These are the words of the Son of God, whose eyes are like a blazing fire and whose feet are like polished bronze.
19 Ua ike au i kau hana ana, a me kou aloha, a me kou lawelawe ana, a me kou manaoio, a me kou ahonui, a me ka oi ana aku o kau hana hope, mamua o na hana mua.
I know your deeds—your love, your faith, your service, your perseverance—and your latter deeds are greater than your first.
20 Aka, he mea ka'u ia oe, no ka mea, ua waiho wale oe i ka wahine ia Iesabela, ka mea i hai mai ia ia iho, he kaula, a ua ao mai oia, a ua hoowalewale mai i ka'u poe kauwa, e moe kolohe, a e ai i na mea i kaumahaia na na kii.
But I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess. By her teaching she misleads My servants to be sexually immoral and to eat food sacrificed to idols.
21 Ua haawi aku no au ia ia i manawa e mihi ai, no kona moe kolohe ana, aole loa oia i mihi.
Even though I have given her time to repent of her immorality, she is unwilling.
22 Aia hoi, e kiola ana au ia ia i kahi moe, a me ka poe i moe kolohe me ia, iloko o ka mainoino nui, ke mihi ole lakou i ka lakou hana ana.
Behold, I will cast her onto a bed of sickness, and those who commit adultery with her will suffer great tribulation unless they repent of her deeds.
23 A e luku aku no au i kana mau keiki i ka make; a e ike auanei na ekalesia a pau, owau no ka mea huli i ka opu a me ka naau; a na'u no e haawi aku i kela mea i keia mea o oukou, e like me ka oukou hana ana.
Then I will strike her children dead, and all the churches will know that I am the One who searches minds and hearts, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.
24 Ke olelo aku nei no hoi au ia oukou, ka poe i koe ma Tuateira, ka poe aole i hahai ma ia manao, ka poe aole i ike i ko Satana mea hohonu, pela ka olelo; aole au e kau maluna o oukou i kekahi mea kaumaha e ae.
But I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned the so-called deep things of Satan: I will place no further burden upon you.
25 Aka, i ka mea a oukou e paa nei, ea, e hoopaa ia mea a hiki aku au.
Nevertheless, hold fast to what you have until I come.
26 O ka mea e lanakila a malama hoi i ka'u hana, a hiki i ka hopena, e haawi aku no au ia ia i ka mana maluna o na lahuikanaka:
And to the one who overcomes and continues in My work until the end, I will give authority over the nations.
27 A e hoomalu no oia ia lakou me ke kookoohao; me na ipu lepo e ulupaia'i lakou; e like me ka'u i loaa mai ai i ko'u Makua.
He will rule them with an iron scepter and shatter them like pottery —just as I have received authority from My Father.
28 A na'u no e haawi ia ia i ka hokuao.
And I will give him the morning star.
29 O ka mea pepeiao la, e hoolohe ia i ka mea a ka Uhane e olelo nei i na ekalesia.
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
