Ioane I. 3
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Berean Standard Bible
1EIA hoi, manomano ke aloha a ka Makua i haawi mai ai ia kakou, i kapaia mai ai kakou he poe keiki na ke Akua; no ia mea, aole i ike mai ko ke ao nei ia kakou, no ka mea, aole lakou i ike ia ia.
1Behold what manner of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God. And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know Him.
2E na punahele, ano la, he poe keiki kakou na ke Akua, aka, o ko kakou ano mahope aku, aole ikea ia; aka, ke ike nei kakou, a i kona wa e ikea mai ai, e like auanei kakou me ia: no ka mea, e ike kakou ia ia ma kona ano maoli.
2Beloved, we are now children of God, and what we will be has not yet been revealed. We know that when Christ appears, we will be like Him, for we will see Him as He is.
3O ka mea i loaa ia ia keia manaolana ma ona la, oia ke hoomaemae ia ia iho e like me ko ia la maemae ana.
3And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as Christ is pure.
4O ka mea e hana aku ana i ka hewa, oia ka mea e haihai ana i ke kanawai; a o ka hewa, oia no ke ku e ana i ke kanawai.
4Everyone who practices sin practices lawlessness as well. Indeed, sin is lawlessness.
5Ua ike no oukou, ua hoikea mai oia, i lawe ae ia i ko kakou hewa: aole hewa iloko ona.
5But you know that Christ appeared to take away sins, and in Him there is no sin.
6O ka mea e noho ana iloko ona, aole ia e hana hewa. O ka mea e hana i ka hewa, aole ia i nana ae ia ia, aole no hoi i ike ia ia.
6No one who remains in Him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has seen Him or known Him.
7E na pokii, e malama i hoopunipuni ole kekahi ia oukou: o ka mea i hana i ka pono, oia ka i pono, e like me ko ia la pono ana.
7Little children, let no one deceive you: The one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as Christ is righteous.
8O ka mea e hana ana i ka hewa, no ka diabolo no ia; no ka mea, ua hana hewa mau ka diabolo, mai kinohi mai. No ia mea, ua hoikea mai ke Keiki a ke Akua, i hokae aku ai oia i ka ka diabolo hana ana.
8The one who practices sin is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the very start. This is why the Son of God was revealed, to destroy the works of the devil.
9O ka mea i hoohanauia mai e ke Akua, aole ia e hana hewa; no ka mea, ke noho mau nei kona hua iloko ona; aole e hiki ia ia ke hana hewa aku, no ka mea, ua hoohanauia mai no ia e ke Akua.
9Anyone born of God refuses to practice sin, because God’s seed abides in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.
10Malaila no i maopopo ai nakeiki a ke Akua, a me ka poe keiki na ka diabolo. O ka mea hana ole ma ka pono, aole ia na ke Akua, aole hoi ka mea aloha ole i kona hoahanau.
10By this the children of God are distinguished from the children of the devil: Anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is anyone who does not love his brother.
11No ka mea, eia no ka olelo a oukou i lohe ai mai kinohi mai, e aloha aku kakou i kekahi i kekahi.
11This is the message you have heard from the beginning: We should love one another.
12Aole like me Kaina, na ka mea ino no oia, a pepehi iho la ia i kona kaikaina a make. No ke aha la kela i pepehi ai ia ia? no ka mea, ua hewa kana hana iho, a na pono hoi ka kona kaikaina.
12Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did Cain slay him? Because his own deeds were evil, while those of his brother were righteous.
13Mai kahaha oukou, e na hoahanau o'u, ke hoomaau mai ko ke ao nei ia oukou.
13So do not be surprised, brothers, if the world hates you.
14Ke ike nei kakou, ua lilo ae kakou mai ka make ae i ke ola, no ka mea, ke aloha aku nei kakou i na hoahanau, O ka mea e aloha ole ana i kona hoahauau, ke noho nei oia ma ka make.
14We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love our brothers. The one who does not love remains in death.
15O ka mea e hoomaau ana i kona hoahanau, he mea pepehi kanaka ia: ua ike no oukou o ka mea pepehi kanaka, aole ke ola mau loa e noho ana iloko ona.
15Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that eternal life does not reside in a murderer.
16No ia mea, ua ike kakou i ke aloha, no ka mea, ua waiho iho la oia i kona ola no kakou; a he mea pono no hoi ia kakou, ke waiho ae i ko kakou ola no ka poe hoahanau.
16By this we know what love is: Jesus laid down His life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers.
17O ka mea i loaa ia ia ka waiwai o keia ao, a ike ae la i ka nele o kona hoahanau, a papani ae i kona naau ia ia, pehea la ke aloha o ke Akua e noho ai iloko ona?
17If anyone with earthly possessions sees his brother in need, but withholds his compassion from him, how can the love of God abide in him?
18E na pokii o'u, mai aloha kakou ma ka waha, aole hoi ma ke alelo wale no; aka, ma ka hana ana a me ka oiaio.
18Little children, let us love not in word and speech, but in action and truth.
19Ma keia mea e ike ai kakou, no ka oiaio kakou, a e hooiaio aku kakou i ko kakou mau naau imua ona.
19And by this we will know that we belong to the truth, and will assure our hearts in His presence:
20No ka mea, ina e hoohewa mai ko kakou naau ia kakou iho, ua oi aku ke Akua i ko kakou naau, a ua ike oia i na mea a pau.
20Even if our hearts condemn us, God is greater than our hearts, and He knows all things.
21E na punahele, ina e hoohewa ole mai ko kakou naau ia kakou iho, alaila ua loaa ia kakou ka wiwo ole imua o ke Akua.
21Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God,
22O ka mea a kakou e noi aku ai, e loaa no ia kakou nona mai, no ka mea, ke malama nei kakou i kana mau kauoha, a ke hana nei no hoi kakou imua ona i kona mea e makemake ai.
22and we will receive from Him whatever we ask, because we keep His commandments and do what is pleasing in His sight.
23Eia no kana kauoha mai, e manaoio aku kakou i ka inoa o kana Keiki o Iesu Kristo, a e aloha kekahi i kekahi, e like me ke kauoha ana i haawi mai ai ia kakou.
23And this is His commandment: that we should believe in the name of His Son, Jesus Christ, and we should love one another just as He commanded us.
24O ka mea e malama aku ana i kana mau kauoha, ua noho no ia iloko ona; a ua noho mai no hoi kela iloko ona. Nolaila hoi ke ike nei kakou, ke noho mai nei oia iloko o kakou, ma ka Uhane ana i haawi mai ai no kakou.
24Whoever keeps His commandments remains in God, and God in him. And by this we know that He remains in us: by the Spirit He has given us.
