Korineto II. 3
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
World English Bible
1E HOOMAKA hou anei makou e hoomaikai aku ia makou iho? a e hemahema anei makou e like me kekahi poe i na palapala hoike ia oukou, a i na palapala hoike mai o oukou mai?
1Are we beginning again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, as do some, letters of commendation to you or from you?
2O oukou no ka makou palapala i kakauia maloko o ko makou naau, i ikeia a i heluheluia e na kanaka a pau.
2You are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all men,
3No ka mea, ua hoike akaka ia, o oukou no ka Kristo palapala a makou i hana'i, i kakauia aole me ka inika, aka, me ka Uhane o ke Akua ola; aole maloko o na papa pohaku aka, maloko o na papa io o ka naau.
3being revealed that you are a letter of Christ, served by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tablets of stone, but in tablets that are hearts of flesh.
4Pela ko makou manao maopopo i ke Akua ma o Kristo la:
4Such confidence we have through Christ toward God,
5Aole hoi e hiki ia makou kekahi mea ma ko makou noonoo ana, o makou wale; aka, o ke Akua no ko makou mea e hiki ai.
5not that we are sufficient of ourselves to account anything as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God,
6Oia ka i hoomakaukau ia makou i kahuna no ke kauoha hou, aole ma ke kanawai, aka, ma ka Uhane: no ka mea, ke pepehi mai nei ke kanawai, a ke hoola mai nei ka Uhane.
6who also made us sufficient as servants of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
7Ina paha ua nani ka oihana no ka make i kakauia maloko o na pohaku me na huaolelo, i hiki ole i na mamo a Iseraela ke haka pono aku i ka maka o Mose, no ke alohi o kona maka, ka mea e nalowale ana;
7But if the service of death, written engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look steadfastly on the face of Moses for the glory of his face, which was passing away,
8Aole anei e oi nui aku ka nani o ka oihana o ka Uhane?
8won’t service of the Spirit be with much more glory?
9No ka mea, ina paha he nani ko ka oihana hoohewa, he oiaio no, ua pakela aku ka nani o ka oihana hoapono.
9For if the service of condemnation has glory, the service of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.
10No keia mea, aohe nani o kela mea i hoouaniia pela, no keia pakela nani.
10For most certainly that which has been made glorious has not been made glorious in this respect, by reason of the glory that surpasses.
11Ina he nani ko kela mea i hoonalowaleia; oiaio, he nani ko ka mea e mau loa aku ana.
11For if that which passes away was with glory, much more that which remains is in glory.
12No ia hoi, no ka loaa ana mai ia makou keia manaolana, he olelo wiwo ole ka makou:
12Having therefore such a hope, we use great boldness of speech,
13Aole like me Mose i uhi iho ai i kona maka i ka pale, i hiki ole i na mamo a Iseraela ke nana pono i ka hope o ua mea la e nalowale ana:
13and not as Moses, who put a veil on his face so that the children of Israel wouldn’t look steadfastly on the end of that which was passing away.
14Aka, ua hoopouliia ko lakou naau; no ka mea, a hiki i neia manawa, i ka heluhelu ana i ke kauoha kahiko, ua koe no ka pale, aole i weheia; ua pau no hoi ia mea ia Kristo.
14But their minds were hardened, for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains, because in Christ it passes away.
15A i neia manawa, i ka heluhelu ana i ka Mose, e kau ana no ua pale la maluna o ko lakou naau.
15But to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart.
16Aia huli mai ia i ka Haku, alaila e laweia aku no ua pale la.
16But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
17A o ka Haku, oia ka Uhane: a ma kahi e noho ai ka Uhane o ka Haku, ua noa ia wahi.
17Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
18Aka, me ka maka i uhi ole ia, ke ike aku nei makou a pau i ka nani o ka Haku, e like me ke aka ma ke aniani, a ua hoano hou ia makou ma ka like ana o ua aka la, ma ka nani e mahuahua ana, e ko ka Haku nona ka Uhane.
18But we all, with unveiled face seeing the glory of the Lord as in a mirror, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord, the Spirit.
