Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1So I made up my mind not to make another painful visit to you.
1A KA, o keia ka'u i manao ai, aole e hele hou aku io oukou la me ka eha o ka naau.
2For if I grieve you, who is left to cheer me but those whom I have grieved?
2A ina e hana eha aku au i ko oukou naau, owai la auanei e hooluolu mai ia'u; aole anei oia wale no, o ka mea i eha ia'u?
3I wrote as I did so that on my arrival I would not be saddened by those who ought to make me rejoice. I had confidence in all of you, that you would share my joy.
3Nolaila, ua palapala aku au ia oukou i ua mea la, o ehaeha auanei au i ka poe e pono ke hoohauoli mai ia'u i kuu hele ana'ku; ua manao lea hoi au ia oukou a pau, o ko'u olioli ana, o ka oukou hoi ia a pau.
4For through many tears I wrote you out of great distress and anguish of heart, not to grieve you but to let you know how much I love you.
4No ka mea, me ke kaumaha nui, a me ka eha o ka naau, ua palapala aku no au ia oukou me na waimaka he nui; aole no ka hoeha aku i ko oukou naau, aka, i ike oukou i ka nui o ko'u aloha ia oukou.
5Now if anyone has caused grief, he has not grieved me but all of you—to some degree, not to overstate it.
5A i hooeha mai kekahi, ma ka hapa wale no ka hooeha ana mai ia'u; i hooili ole aku ai au i ka hewa iluna iho o oukou a pau.
6The punishment imposed on him by the majority is sufficient for him.
6Ua nui keia hoopai ana no ua mea la, i hooukuia'ku e ka nui o oukou.
7So instead, you ought to forgive and comfort him, so that he will not be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow.
7No ia mea, he pono no ke kala ae oukou ia ia, me ka hooluolu aku, malia paha o nawaliwali loa auanei ua mea la i ke kaumaha nui.
8Therefore I urge you to reaffirm your love for him.
8Noiaila, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oukou, e hoomaopopo aku i ke aloha ia ia.
9My purpose in writing you was to see if you would stand the test and be obedient in everything.
9No keia mea hoi, ua palapala aku au, i ike maopopo ai au ia oukou, ina paha oukou e hoolohe mai i na mea a pau.
10If you forgive anyone, I also forgive him. And if I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven it in the presence of Christ for your sake,
10A i kala aku oukou i ka mea o kekahi, owau hoi kekahi e kala aku; no ia hoi, ina paha au i kala aku i kekahi mea, no oukou i kala aku ai au ia mea ia ia, ma Kristo:
11in order that Satan should not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.
11I puni ole kakou ia Satana; no ka mea, ua ike kakou i na manao ona.
12Now when I went to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ and a door stood open for me in the Lord,
12A i kuu hele ana i Teroa no ka euanelio a Kristo, a ua weheia'e la ka puka ia'u e ka Haku,
13I had no peace in my spirit, because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I said goodbye to them and went on to Macedonia.
13Aole o'u maha ma kuu naau, i ka loaa ole ia'u o Tito o ko'u hoahanau: aka, uwe aku la au ia lakou, a hele aku la i Makedonia.
14But thanks be to God, who always leads us triumphantly as captives in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of Him.
14E hoomaikaiia'ku ke Akua nana makou e hoolanakila mau mai iloko o Kristo, me ka hoolaha aku i ke ala o kona naauao i na wahi a pau, ma o makou nei.
15For we are to God the sweet aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.
15No ka mea, he mea ala makou no Kristo i ke Akua, no ka poe ola a me ka poe make.
16To the one, we are an odor of death and demise; to the other, a fragrance that brings life. And who is qualified for such a task?
16No keia poe, he mea ala make makou e make ai; no keia poe hoi, he mea ala ola e ola'i: owai la hoi ka mea e pono ia ia keia mau mea?
17For we are not like so many others, who peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, as men sent from God.
17No ka mea, aole makou e anoninoni i ka olelo a ke Akua, e like me kekahi poe nui; aka, ke olelo nei makou i ka Kristo me ka manao pono, oiaio, no ke Akua mai, imua hoi o ke Akua.
