1For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for the sake of you Gentiles...
1NO keia mea, he paahao wau o Paulo na Kristo Iesu, no oukou no ko na aina e;
2Surely you have heard about the stewardship of God’s grace that was given to me for you,
2No ka mea, ua lohe no oukou i ka oihana lokomaikai o ke Akua ana i haawi mai ai ia'u no oukou.
3that is, the mystery made known to me by revelation, as I have already written briefly.
3Ma ka hoikeia i hoakaka mai ai oia iau i ka mea ikea ole; ka mea a'u i palapala pokolo aku ai mamua;
4In reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight into the mystery of Christ,
4A heluhelu oukou, e ike auanei oukou ilaila i kuu ike ana i ka mea ikea ole no Kristo,
5which was not made known to men in other generations as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to God’s holy apostles and prophets.
5I ka mea i hoike ole ia mai i na keiki a kanaka i na hanauna mamua, e like me ia i hoikeia mai e ka Uhane i neia manawa i kana poe lanaolelo hoano a me na kaula;
6This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are fellow heirs, fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus.
6I lilo ai na lahuikanaka e i poe hoahooilina, i kino hookahi, i poe hoalawe pu i ka olelo hoopomaikai no Kristo ma ka euanelio.
7I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God’s grace, given me through the working of His power.
7No ia mea i hooliloia'e au i kahuna, ma ka haawina lokomaikai o ke Akua ana i haawi mai ai ia'u, ma ka ikaika o kona mana.
8Though I am less than the least of all the saints, this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,
8Ua haawiia mai keia lokomaikai ia'u, i ka mea uuku iho o na haipule uuku loa a pau, e hai aku ai au i na lahuikanaka e i ka waiwai kupanaha o Kristo;
9and to illuminate for everyone the stewardship of this mystery, which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things.
9A e hoike aku hoi i na kanaka a pau i ke ano o ka mea pohihihi i hunaia mai ke kumu mai iloko o ke Akua, nana i hana na mea a pau ma o Iesu Kristo la:
10His purpose was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms,
10I hoikeia aku ai ma ka ekalesia i na alii a i na mea mana o ka lani, ka nui loa o ko ke Akua akamai,
11according to the eternal purpose that He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord.
11E like me kona manao kahiko loa ana i hooko ai ia Kristo Iesu ko kakou Haku:
12In Him and through faith in Him we may enter God’s presence with boldness and confidence.
12Ua loaa mai ia kakou ma ona la ka olelo wiwo ole, me ka hookipaia a me ka manaolana ma ka manaoio ia ia.
13So I ask you not to be discouraged because of my sufferings for you, which are your glory.
13Nolaila, ke noi aku nei au e pauaho ole oukou i kuu pilikia ana no oukou, o ka oukou ia e pomaikai ai.
14... for this reason I bow my knees before the Father,
14No keia mea, ke kukuli nei no au imua o ka Makua o ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo,
15from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name.
15Nona hoi i kapaia mai ka inoa o ka ohana a pau ma ka lani, a ma ka honua,
16I ask that out of the riches of His glory He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being,
16I haawi mai ai oia ia oukou, ma ka nui o kona mini, e hooikaika nui ia mai ke kanaka oloko e kona Uhane;
17so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. Then you, being rooted and grounded in love,
17I noho ai o Kristo iloko o ko oukou naau ma ka manaoio; i hoopaaia oukou i ke aa a i hookumuia ma ke aloha,
18will have power, together with all the saints, to comprehend the length and width and height and depth
18I hiki ia oukou ke ike me na haipule a pau i ka laula, a me ka loa, a me ka hohonu, a me ke kiekie;
19of the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
19I ike hoi oukou i ke aloha o Kristo, i ka mea e pakela ana i ka ike; i hoopihaia no hoi oukou i ka mea a pau a ke Akua i piha ai.
20Now to Him who is able to do so much more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us,
20A o ka mea nona ka mana e hana mai ai i na mea a pau a kakou e noi aku ai, a e manao iho ai, a nui loa aku hoi, ma ka mana e hooikaika ana iloko o kakou,
21to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
21Ia ia ka hoonaniia'ku e ka ekalesia ma o Kristo Iesu la, i na manawa a pau, mahope mau loa aku. Amene.
