Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1What I am saying is that as long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a slave, although he is the owner of everything.
1KE olelo aku nei hoi au, o ka hooilina i kona wa opiopio, aole he ano e kona i ko ke kauwa, aka, nona ka waiwai a pau;
2He is subject to guardians and trustees until the date set by his father.
2Aia no ia malalo o ua kumu a me na kahu, a hiki i ka manawa i hoikeia mai ai e ka makua.
3So also, when we were children, we were enslaved under the basic principles of the world.
3Pela no kakou i ko kakou wa kamalii, ua hooluhiia e na oihana mua o ke ao nei.
4But when the time had fully come, God sent His Son, born of a woman, born under the law,
4Aka, i ka hiki ana mai o ka manawa maopopo, hoouna mai la ke Akua i kana Keiki, a ka wahine i hanau ai, i hanau malalo o ko kanawai.
5to redeem those under the law, that we might receive our adoption as sons.
5E hoopakele ae i ka poe malalo o ke kanawai, i hookamaia mai ai kakou he poe keiki.
6And because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!”
6No ka mea, no ko oukou keiki ana, ua hoouna mai la ke Akua i ka Uhane o kana Keiki iloko o ko oukou mau naau, e kahea ana, E Aba, ka Makua.
7So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, you are also an heir through God.
7No ia mea, aole he kauwa luhi oe ma ia hope aku, aka, he keiki no; ina he keiki, he hooilina no hoi na ke Akua ma o Kristo la.
8Formerly, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods.
8Aka, i ka manawa i ike ole ai oukou i ke Akua, hookauwa aku la oukou na na akua oiaio ole.
9But now that you know God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you are turning back to those weak and worthless principles? Do you wish to be enslaved by them all over again?
9Ano hoi, ua ike oukou i ke Akua, he oiaio ua ikeia mai e ke Akua, pehea la hoi oukou i huli hou aku ai i na oihana mua palupalu ilihune, i na mea a oukou i makemake hou ai e hookauwa aku na lakou?
10You are observing special days and months and seasons and years!
10Ke malama nei oukou i ua la, a me na mahina, i na manawa a me na makahiki.
11I fear for you, that my efforts for you may have been in vain.
11Ua hopohopo wau ia oukou, o make hewa paha kuu hooluhi ana no oukou.
12I beg you, brothers, become like me, for I became like you. You have done me no wrong.
12E na hoahanau, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oukou, i like oukou me au, no ka mea, ua like hoi au mo oukou: aole no oukou i hana ino iki mai ia'u.
13You know that it was because of an illness that I first preached the gospel to you.
13Ua ike no oukou me ka palupalu o ke kino i hai aku ai au i ka euanelio ia oukou i kinohou.
14And although my illness was a trial to you, you did not despise or reject me. Instead, you welcomed me as if I were an angel of God, as if I were Christ Jesus Himself.
14Aole no oukou i hoowahawaha mai i ka ino o kuu kino, aole hoi oukou i hoopailua mai; aka, na hookipa mai no oukou ia'u me he anela la no ke Akua, me Kristo Iesu hoi.
15What then has become of your blessing? For I can testify that, if it were possible, you would have torn out your eyes and given them to me.
15Heaha la hoi ko oukou pomaikai ana? No ka mea, ke hoike maka aku nei au no oukou, ina he mea hiki ia, ina ua poalo ae oukou i ko oukou mau maka a haawi mai ia'u.
16Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth?
16Ua lilo anei au i enemi no oukou, i kuu hai ana'ku i ka oiaio ia oukou?
17Those people are zealous for you, but not in a good way. Instead, they want to isolate you from us, so that you may be zealous for them.
17Ua hu mai ko lakou aloha ia oukou, aole nae ma ka pono: ke ake nei lakou e hookaawalo ia oukou, i hu mai ko oukou aloha ia lakou.
18Nevertheless, it is good to be zealous if it serves a noble purpose—at any time, and not only when I am with you.
18Aka, he mea pono no ke hu ae a mau mai ke aloha i ka mea maikai, aole i ka wa wale no e noho ai au me oukou.
19My children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you,
19E kuu mau keiki liilii, ka poe a'u e haakohi nei e hoohanau hou aku, a loaa mai o Kristo iloko o oukou,
20how I wish I could be with you now and change my tone, because I am perplexed about you.
20Ke ake nei au e ike ia oukou i neia manawa, a e hoololi ae i kuu leo; no ka mea, ke haohao nui nei au ia oukou.
21Tell me, you who want to be under the law, do you not understand what the law says?
21E hai mai oukou ia'u, e ka poe i makemake e noho malalo o ke kanawai, aole anei oukou i lohe i ke kanawai?
22For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman.
22No ka mea, ua palapalaia, Elua a Aberahama keikikane; hookahi na ke kauwawahine, hookahi hoi na ka hakuwahine.
23His son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh, but his son by the free woman was born through the promise.
23O ka mea na ke kauwawahine, ua hanau ia ma ko ke kino; aka, o ka mea na ka hakuwahine, ma ka olelo hoopomaikai mai oia.
24These things serve as illustrations, for the women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children into slavery: This is Hagar.
24O keia mau mea, he hoailona ia; o laua no na kauoha elua; o kekahi nae no ke kuahiwi no Sinai mai, e hanau ana i ua keiki kauwa, oia o Hagara.
25Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present-day Jerusalem, because she is in slavery with her children.
25No ka mea, o ua Hagara la oia ke kuahiwi o Sinai i Arabia; ua like hoi ia me Ierusalema i neia manawa, a e hooluhi ana oia me kana poe keiki.
26But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.
26Aka, o ka Ierusalema maluna ka hakuwahine, oia ka makuwahine o kakou a pau.
27For it is written: “Rejoice, O barren woman, who bears no children; break forth and cry aloud, you who have never travailed; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband.”
27No ka mea, ua palapalaia, E olioli oe, e ka mea pa, i hanau ole i keiki; e poha aku me ka hea nui, e ka mea i hanau keiki ole; no ka mea, he nui na keiki a ka mea i haaleleia, he hapa ka ka mea kane.
28Now you, brothers, like Isaac, are children of promise.
28E na hoahanau, he poe keiki no hoi kakou ma ka olelo hoopomaikai mai e like me Isaaka.
29At that time, however, the son born by the flesh persecuted the son born by the Spirit. It is the same now.
29E like mamua, hoomaau aku la ka mea i hanau ma ke kino i ka mea i hanau ma ka Uhane, pela no hoi i neia manawa.
30But what does the Scripture say? “Expel the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman’s son will never share in the inheritance with the free woman’s son.”
30Aka, heaha ka ka palapala hemolele i i mai ai? E hookuke aku oe i ua kauwawahine la a me kana keiki; no ka mea, aole e hooili pu ia'ku ka waiwai i ke keiki a ke kauwawahine me ke keiki a ka hakuwahine.
31Therefore, brothers, we are not children of the slave woman, but of the free woman.
31Nolaila, e na hoahanau, aole he poe keiki kakou na ke kauwawahine, na ka hakuwahine no.
