Roma 1
1 NA Paulo, na ke kauwa a Iesu Kristo i waeia i lunaolelo, a i hookaa waleia hoi no ka euanelio a ke Akua,
This letter comes from Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ. I was called to be an apostle by God. God appointed me to announce the good news
2 Ana i hoike e mai ai mamua ma kana poe kaula, maloko o na palapala hemolele,
that he had previously promised through his prophets in the Holy Scriptures.
3 No kana Keiki Iesu Kristo ko kakou Haku, i hoohanauia na ka hua a Davida, ma ke kino,
The good news is about his Son, whose human forefather was David,
4 A i hoomaopopoia hoi o ke Keiki a ke Akua me ka mana, ma ka uhane hoano, mahope o ke alahouana mai waena mai o ka poe make;
but who was revealed as God's Son by his resurrection from the dead through the power of the Holy Spirit. He is Jesus Christ our Lord.
5 Ma ona la i loaa mai ai ia makou ke aloha, a me ka lunaolelo ana, no ka malama ana o ka manaoio iwaena o na lahuikanaka a pau no kona inoa;
It was through him that I received the privilege of becoming an apostle to call all nations to obedient trust in him.
6 Iwaena o lakou no hoi oukou na mea i waeia no Iesu Kristo:
You are also included among those who were called to belong to Jesus Christ.
7 I ka poe a pau ma Roma, i alohaia e ke Akua, i waeia hoi i mau haipule; no oukou hoi ke aloha a me ka pomaikai, mai ke Akua mai, o ko kakou Makua, a mai ka Haku mai hoi, o Iesu Kristo.
I'm writing to all of you in Rome who are loved by God, and called to be his special people. Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
8 O ka mua, ke hoomaikai aku nei au i ke Akua, ma o Iesu Kristo la no oukou a pau, no ka mea, ua hookaulanaia ko oukou manaoio, ma ka honua a pau.
Let me begin by saying that I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because the way in which you trust in God is spoken about all over the world.
9 O ke Akua, o ka'u mea e malama nei me kuu uhane ma ka olelo maikai no kana Keiki, oia ka mea ike no'u, i ko'u hoomanao mau ana ia oukou, ma ka'u pule,
I'm always praying for you, as God can confirm—the God I serve with the whole of my being as I share the good news about his Son.
10 E noi mau ana, ina e hiki i kekahi manawa, i keia wa aku nei paha, e hele pomaikai aku wau me ka ae ana mai o ke Akua, a hiki io oukou la.
In my prayers I'm always asking that I might eventually come and see you, if that's what God wants.
11 No ka mea, ke ake nei au e ike aku ia oukou, e haawi aku au i kekahi pono ma ka uhane no oukou, i hookupaaia'i oukou.
I really want to visit you and share with you a spiritual blessing to strengthen you.
12 Eia kekahi, e hooluoluia mai hoi au iwaena o oukou, ma ka manao lokahi ana o oukou a me au.
In this way we can be encouraged together by each others' trust in God, both your trust and mine.
13 Eia hoi, aole o'u makemake e ike ole oukou, e na hoahanau, i kuu manao pinepine ana e hele io oukou la, (aka, ua kaohiia a hiki i keia wa, ) i loaa mai hoi ia'u kekahi hua mawaena o oukou, e like me ia mawaena o na lahuikanaka e.
I want you to know, my brothers and sisters, I often planned to visit you, but I was kept from coming up till now. I want to see some good spiritual results among you just as I've seen among other people.
14 He aie au na ka poe Helene a me na kanaka hemahema; na ka poe i aoia, a me ka poe i ao ole ia.
For I have an obligation to work for both the civilized and the uncivilized, both the educated and the uneducated.
15 Pela hoi, ma ka mea hiki ia'u, ua makaukau wau e hai aku i ka euanelio ia oukou no hoi ma Roma.
That's why I'm really keen to come to Rome and share the good news with you.
16 No ka mea, aole au i hilahila i ka euanelio no Kristo; no ka mea, o ko ke Akua mana ia e ola'i, no kela mea, no keia mea manaoio; no ka Iudaio mua, a no ka Helene hoi.
I'm certainly not ashamed about the good news, for it's God's power to save everyone who trusts in him—to the Jewish people first, and then to everyone else as well.
17 No ka mea, ua hoikeia mai ilaila ko ke Akua hoapono ana mai ma ka manaoio, a i manaoio; e like me ka mea i palapalaia, O ka mea pono, ma ka manaoio, e ola ia.
For in the good news God is revealed as good and right, trustworthy from start to finish. As Scripture says, “Those who are right with God live by trusting him.”
18 A ua hoikeia mai no hoi ka inaina o ke Akua, mai ka lani mai, i ka aia, a me ka haua ino a pau a na kanaka, i keakea me ka haua hewa, i ka olelo oiaio.
God's hostility is revealed from heaven against those who are godless and who are not morally right, those who suppress the truth through the evil that they do.
19 No ka mea, o ka mea o hiki ke ikeia no ke Akua, ua akaka ia ia lakou; no ka mea, ua hoakaka mai no ke Akua ia mea ia lakou.
What can be known about God is obvious, because he has made it very clear to them.
20 No ka mea, o kona mau mea i nana ole ia, mai ka hana ana mai o ke ao nei, ua maopopo lea ua mau mea la, oia o kona mana mau a me kona Akua ana, ma na mea i hanaia; nolaila aole o lakou mea e hoaponoia'i: (aïdios g126)
Ever since the creation of the world, the invisible aspects of God—his eternal power and divinity—are clearly visible in what he has made. Such people have no excuse, (aïdios g126)
21 No ka mea, i ka wa i ike ai lakou i ke Akua, aole lakou i hoonani aku ia ia i Akua, aole hoi i aloha aku; aka, ua lapuwale lakou i ko lakou manao ana, a ua hoopouliia hoi ko lakou naau hawawa.
because even though they knew God, they did not praise him or thank him, but instead their thinking about God turned into complete foolishness, and darkness filled their empty minds.
22 I ko lakou hoakamai ana, lilo lakou i poe naaupo,
Even though they claimed to be wise, they became foolish.
23 A hoololi aku lakou i ka nani o ke Akua make ole, i kii e like me ke kanaka make, a me na manu, a me na holoholona wawae eha, a me na mea kolo.
They exchanged the glory of the immortal God for idols, images of mortal human beings, birds, animals, and reptiles.
24 Nolaila hoi, kuu iho la ke Akua ia lakou ma na kuko hewa o ko lakou mau uaau, i paumaele, e hoinoino ai i ko lakou mau kino iho, ia lakou lakou.
So God abandoned them to the evil desires of their depraved minds, and they did shameful, degrading things to each other.
25 Haalele aku la lakou i ke Akua oiaio, no ka mea apaapa, a hoomana aku la lakou, a malama hoi i ka mea i hanaia, aole i ka Mea nana i hana, oia ka mea hoomaikai mau loa ia. Amene. (aiōn g165)
They exchanged God's truth for a lie, worshiping and serving creatures instead of the Creator, who deserves praise forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
26 No ia mea, kuu iho la ke Akua ia lakou i na kuko ino; no ka mea, ua hoololi ae ko lakou poe wahine i ka aoao maoli i ka mea ku e i ka aoao maoli.
That's why God abandoned them to their evil desires. Their women exchanged natural sex for that which is unnatural,
27 Pela no hoi na kane, i haalele ai i ka aoao maoli o ka wahine, a ua wela i ke kuko hewa i kekahi i kekahi; na kane me na kane, e hana ana i ka mea hilahila, a e loaa ana iloko o lakou ka uka pono no ko lakou lalau ana.
and in the same way the men gave up sex with women and burned with lust for each other. Men did indecent things to each other, and as a result they suffered the inevitable consequences of their perversions.
28 A no ko lakou makemake ole e hoopaa i ke Akua ma ko lakou ike, kuu iho la ke Akua ia lakou i ka naau hewa, e hana aku lakou i na mea ku ole i ka pono:
Since they didn't consider it worthwhile to get to know God, he abandoned them to their worthless, distrustful way of thinking, doing things that should never be done.
29 Ua piha lakou i na hewa a pau, i ka moe kolohe, i ka opuinoino, i ka puniwaiwai, a mo ka hana ino; ua paapu hoi i ka huahuwa, i ka pepehi kanaka, i ka hakaka, i ka hoopunipuni, a me ka manao ino:
They filled themselves with all that's wrong: evil, greed, hate, envy, murder, quarreling, deception, malice, and gossip.
30 He poe aki, he poe olelo hoohewa wale, he poe inaina i ke Akua, he poe kuamuamu, he haaheo, he haanui, he poe imi i na mea ino, he poe malama ole i na makua,
They're back-stabbers and God-haters. They're arrogant, proud, and boastful. They devise new ways of sinning. They rebel against their parents.
31 He poe hoohemahema, he poe lawehala i na mea i hoohikiia, he poe aloha ole, he poe makoua, he poe lokoino.
They don't want to understand, they don't keep their promises, they don't show any kindness or compassion.
32 Ua ike lakou i ke kanawai o ke Akua, o ka poe o hana pela, he pono lakou e make, a ke hana nei no lakou ia mau mea, a ua mahalo no hoi i ka poe e hana ana malaila.
Even though they realize exactly what God requires, they do things that deserve death. Not only do they do such things themselves, they also support others in doing them.
