Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1As a prisoner in the Lord, then, I urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling you have received:
1NO ia mea, owau ka paahao no ka Haku, ke nonoi aku nei ia oukou, e hele oukou ma ka mea e ku i ke koho ana a oukou i kohoia mai ai.
2with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love,
2Me ka haahaa nui o ka naau, a me ke akahai, a me ka hoomanawanui hoi, a e ahonui aku kekahi i kekahi me ke aloha.
3and with diligence to preserve the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.
3E hooikaika oukou e hoomau i ka lokahi ana o ka manao, ma ke apo o ke kuikabi.
4There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called;
4Hookahi no kino, hookahi hoi Uhane, e like me ka oukou i kohoia mai ai i ka manaolana hookahi o ko oukou kohoia ana:
5one Lord, one faith, one baptism;
5Hookahi no Haku, hookahi manaoio, hookahi bapetizo ana;
6one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
6Hookahi hoi Akua, ka Makua o na mea a pau, oia maluna o na mea a pau, ma na mea a pau a iloko hoi o kakou a pau.
7Now to each one of us grace has been given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
7Ua haawiia mai hoi ka lokomaikai ia kakou a pau, e like me ke ana a Kristo i haawi mai ai.
8This is why it says: “When He ascended on high, He led captives away, and gave gifts to men.”
8Nolaila, i olelo mai ai oia, I kona pii ana iluna, ua kai pio ia i ka poe i pio, a haawi mai la hoi i na haawina i kanaka.
9What does “He ascended” mean, except that He also descended to the lower parts of the earth?
9(A o keia, Ua pii aku la ia iluna heaha anei ia mea, i ole kela i iho ae mamua i na wahi malalo ae o ka honua?
10He who descended is the very One who ascended above all the heavens, in order to fill all things.
10O ka mea i iho ae ilalo, oia no ka mea i pii aku maluna ae o ka lani kiekie loa, i hoopiha ai oia i na mea a pau.)
11And it was He who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers,
11Ua hoolilo iho la oia i kekahi poe i lunaolelo; a i kekahi poe i kaula; a i kekahi poe i kahuna hai olelo; a i kekahi poe i kahu ekalesia a me na kumu;
12to equip the saints for works of ministry and to build up the body of Christ,
12I mea e hooponopono ai i na haipule no ka oihana kahuna, a no ke kukulu paa ana i ke kino o Kristo:
13until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, as we mature to the full measure of the stature of Christ.
13A hiki aku kakou a pau i ka lokahi ana o ka manaoio, a me ka ike aku i ke Keiki a ke Akua, a lilo i kanaka makua, i poe naauao loa ma na mea o Kristo:
14Then we will no longer be infants, tossed about by the waves and carried around by every wind of teaching and by the clever cunning of men in their deceitful scheming.
14I kamalii ole ai kakou ma ia hope aku i ka alealeia a me ka lauwiliia e na makani a pau o ka olelo, ma ka apiki a kanaka, a me ka maalea a lakou e imi ai i ka hoopunipuni;
15Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Christ Himself, who is the head.
15Aka, e olelo oiaio aku ana me ke aleha, i nui ae kakou i na mea a pau iloko ona, oia o Kristo o ke poo.
16From Him the whole body, fitted and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love through the work of each individual part.
16Ua kapili pono ia ke kino a pau e ia a paa i ke kokuaia mai e na ami a pau, ua hoonui ae la oia i ke kino e like me ke ano o ka ikaika o kela lala o keia lala, no ke kukulu paa ana ia ia iho ma ke aloha.
17So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.
17O keia hoi ka'u e olelo aku nei, a hoike aku hoi ma ka I Haku, mai haele hou oukou e like me na lahuikauaka e ma ka lapuwale o ko lakou naau:
18They are darkened in their understanding and alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardness of their hearts.
18Ua poeleele ko lakou manao ana, ua mamao loa mai ke ola aku o ke Akua, uo ka naaupo iloko o lakou, a me ka paakiki o ko lakou naau:
19Having lost all sense of shame, they have given themselves over to sensuality for the practice of every kind of impurity, with a craving for more.
19A no ko lakou makau ole, ua hoolilo ia lakou iho i ka makaleho, e hana aku ai i ka haumia a pau me ka makermake.
20But this is not the way you came to know Christ.
20Aka, aole pela ka oukou i ao aku ai i ka Kristo:
21Surely you heard of Him and were taught in Him—in keeping with the truth that is in Jesus—
21Ina paha i lohe oukou i kana, i aoia hoi oukou e ia, e like me ka oiaio iloko o Iesu:
22to put off your former way of life, your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires;
22A no ka noho ana mamna, e haalele aku oukou i ke kanaka kahiko i haumia i na kuko hewa hoopunipuni:
23to be renewed in the spirit of your minds;
23E hoano hou ia hoi oukou ma ka mauao ana o ko oukou naau;
24and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
24E hoaahu iho hoi oukou i ke kanaka hou, i hanaia mamuli o ke Akua ma ka pono a me ka hemolele io.
25Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to his neighbor, for we are all members of one another.
25Nolaila, e haalele oukou i ka wahahee, e olelo oiaio aku hoi kela mea keia mea a pau i kona hoalauna; no ka mea he mau lala kakou o kekahi me kekahi.
26“Be angry, yet do not sin.” Do not let the sun set upon your anger,
26A i huhu oukou, e ao o hewa auanei: mai hoomau i ko oukou inaina a napoo ka la.
27and do not give the devil a foothold.
27Aole hoi e haawi aku oukou i kauwahi no ka diabolo.
28He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing good with his own hands, that he may have something to share with the one in need.
28O ka mea i aihue, mai aihue hou aku ia: aka hoi, e hana ia, e hooikaika ana me na lima i ka mea maikai, i loaa'i ia ia ka mea e haawi aku na ka mea nele.
29Let no unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building up the one in need and bringing grace to those who listen.
29Mai hoopuka ae oukou i ka olelo ino mai loko mai o ko oukou waha; aka, o ka olelomaikai no ke ku paa ana, hooluolu aku ai ia i ka poe lohe.
30And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
30Mai hooeha hoi i ka Uhane Hemolele o ke Akua, nana oukou i hoailona mai no ka la e hoolaia mai ai.
31Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, outcry and slander, along with every form of malice.
31E hookaawaleia na mea awaawa a pau mai o oukou aku, a me ka inaina, ka huhu, ka uwa, ka olelo ino, a me ka manao ino a pau.
32Be kind and tenderhearted to one another, forgiving each other just as in Christ God forgave you.
32E lokomaikai oukou i kekahi e kekahi, e aloha aku me ka naau, e kala ana hoi kekahi i kekahi, e like me ka ke Akua i kala mai ai i ko oukou ma o Kristo la.
