Timoteo I. 3
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
World English Bible
1HE olelo oiaio keia, ina make make kekahi i ka oihana kahunapule, he hana maikai kana i makemake ai.
1This is a faithful saying: someone who seeks to be an overseer desires a good work.
2Eia ka pono no ke kahunapule, he hala ole, he kane na ka wahine hookahi, he kiai ia ia iho, he kuoo, he akahai, he hookipa, he akamai hoi i ke ao aku;
2The overseer therefore must be without reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, sensible, modest, hospitable, good at teaching;
3Aole e lilo i ka waina, aole e kipikipi, aole hoi alunu wale; aka, e ahonui, a e hakaka ole, aole hoi makee waiwai;
3not a drinker, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous;
4E hoomalu maikai ana i kona hale iho me ka hoolohe pono ia mai e kana mau keiki me ka hanohano.
4one who rules his own house well, having children in subjection with all reverence;
5No ka mea, ina i ike ole ke kanaka i ka hoomalu ana i kona hale iho, pehea la e hiki ai ia ia ke malama i ka ekalesia o ke Akua?
5(for how could someone who doesn’t know how to rule his own house take care of God’s assembly?)
6Aole ka mea akahiakahi, o hookiekie ae oia a haule iloko o ka hoohewaia ana o ka diabolo.
6not a new convert, lest being puffed up he fall into the same condemnation as the devil.
7E pono hoi e hoaponoia mai ia e ka poe mawaho; o lilo i ka hoahewaia, a hei aku la i ke pahele a ka diabolo.
7Moreover he must have good testimony from those who are outside, to avoid falling into reproach and the snare of the devil.
8Pela hoi na puuku ekalesia, e pono e noho kuoo, aole alelo lua, aole lilo i ka waina nui, aole hoi alunu wale;
8Servants, in the same way, must be reverent, not double-tongued, not addicted to much wine, not greedy for money,
9E hoopaa ana i ka mea pohihihi o ka manaoio me ka manao maemae.
9holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.
10E hooiaio mua ia hoi lakou nei a ikea ka hala ole; alaila e lawe lakou i ka oihana puuku ekalesia.
10Let them also first be tested; then let them serve if they are blameless.
11Pela hoi ka lakou mau wahine, e pono e noho kuoo, me ke aki ole, me ka noho malie, e hoopono ana ma na mea a pau.
11Their wives in the same way must be reverent, not slanderers, temperate, and faithful in all things.
12E pono hoi e lawe pakahi na puuku ekalesia i ka wahine, e hoomalu pono ana hoi i ka lakou mau keiki a me ko lakou mau hale iho.
12Let servants be husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.
13No ka mea, o ka poe i lawelawe pono i ka oihana puuku, ua loaa ia lakou kekahi pono nui, a me ka wiwo ole ma ka manaoio iloko o Kristo Iesu.
13For those who have served well gain for themselves a good standing and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
14O keia mau mea ka'u e palapala aku nei ia oe, me ka manao e hele koke aku iou la;
14These things I write to you, hoping to come to you shortly,
15A i hakalia au, i ike oe i kou pono e hana ai maloko o ka hale o ke Akua, oia ka ekalesia o ke Akua ola, o ke kia a me ke kahua o ka olelo oiaio.
15but if I wait long, that you may know how men ought to behave themselves in God’s house, which is the assembly of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.
16Ua akaka no he mea nui ka mea pohihihi o ka manao i ke Akua: ua hoikeia mai ke Akua ma ke kino, ua hoaponoia mai e ka Uhane, ua ikea mai e na anela, ua haiia ku i ko na aina e, ua manaoio ia ma ke ao nei, a ua hookipaia'ku iluna i ka nani.
16Without controversy, the mystery of godliness is great: God was revealed in the flesh, justified in the spirit, seen by angels, preached among the nations, believed on in the world, and received up in glory.
