Korineto II. 8
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
World English Bible
1E NA hoahanau, ke hoike aku nei makou ia oukou i ka lokomaikai o ke Akua i haawiia mai i na ekalesia o Makedonia;
1Moreover, brothers, we make known to you the grace of God which has been given in the assemblies of Macedonia,
2Ia lakou i hoao nui ia mai ai i ka hoino, mahuahua iho la ko lakou olioli, a i ko lakou ilihune loa, mahuahua iho la ko lakou manawalea ana aku.
2how in a severe ordeal of affliction, the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded to the riches of their generosity.
3No ka mea, ua ike maka au, e like me ko lakou Iako, a nui loa aku, no ko lakou makemake iho,
3For according to their power, I testify, yes and beyond their power, they gave of their own accord,
4Koi ikaika mai la lakou me ke noi mai ia makou, na makou no e malama i ka haawina, a e lawe pu i manawalea na ka poe haipule.
4begging us with much entreaty to receive this grace and the fellowship in the service to the saints.
5Aole nae i like me ko makou manao, aka, haawi e aku la lakou mamna ia lakou iho no ka Haku, a no makou hoi, ma ka makemake o ke Akua.
5This was not as we had expected, but first they gave their own selves to the Lord, and to us through the will of God.
6No ia mea, ua noi aku makou ia Tito; e like me kana i hoomaka'i, pela no hoi oia e hoopau ai i keia haawina mawaena o oukou.
6So we urged Titus, that as he had made a beginning before, so he would also complete in you this grace.
7No ia hoi, no ko oukou mahuahua ana i na inea a pau, i ka manaoio, i ka olelo, i ka ike, i ka ikaika a pau, a me ko oukou aloha mai ia makou; i mahuahua hoi oukou i keia lokomaikai ana'ku.
7But as you abound in everything—in faith, utterance, knowledge, all earnestness, and in your love to us—see that you also abound in this grace.
8Aole au e olelo aku ma ke kanoha, aka, no ka ikaika o kekahi poe, a e hoao hoi i ka oiaio o ko oukou aloha.
8I speak not by way of commandment, but as proving through the earnestness of others the sincerity also of your love.
9No ka mea, ua ike no oukou i ka lokomaikai o ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo, ua waiwai oia, a no oukou i lilo mai ai ia i mea ilihune, i waiwai ai hoi oukou ma kona ilihune.
9For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might become rich.
10Ke hai aku nei au i kun manao i keia mea; he mea pono keia no oukou ka poe i hoomaka, aole i ka hana wale no, aka, i ka makemake hoi i kela makahiki mamua.
10I give advice in this: it is expedient for you who were the first to start a year ago, not only to do, but also to be willing.
11Ano hoi, e hooko oukou i ka hana ana ia mea; e like me ko oukou manao makemake, pela hoi e hooko ai ma ka oukou i loaa mai.
11But now complete the doing also, that as there was the readiness to be willing, so there may be the completion also out of your ability.
12No ka mea, a i loaa ka manao makemake, ua maliuia mai ia ma ka mea i loaa ia ia, aole ma ka mea i loaa ole.
12For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according to what you have, not according to what you don’t have.
13Aole o'u makemake e mama na mea e ae, a e kaumaha oukou:
13For this is not that others may be eased and you distressed,
14Aka, i like, i neia manawa e kokua aku ko oukou waiwai i ko lakou ilihune, i kokua mai hoi ko lakou waiwai i ko oukou ilihune, i like pu:
14but for equality. Your abundance at this present time supplies their lack, that their abundance also may become a supply for your lack, that there may be equality.
15E like me ka mea i palapalaia, o ka mea i hoiliili nui, aohe mea i oi aku nana; a o ka mea i hoiliili liilii, aole i emi kana.
15As it is written, “He who gathered much had nothing left over, and he who gathered little had no lack.”
16E alohaia ke Akua nana i haawi mai keia manao ikaika iloko o ka naau o Tito no oukou.
16But thanks be to God, who puts the same earnest care for you into the heart of Titus.
17No ka mea, ua hoolohe mai la ia i ka olelo hooikaika; aka, i ka oi ana aku o kona ikaika, hele aku la ia io oukou la ma kona manao iho.
17For he indeed accepted our exhortation, but being himself very earnest, he went out to you of his own accord.
18A ua hoouna pu aku la makou me ia i ka hoahanau, nona ka hoomaikaiia mai ma na ekalesia a pau, no ka euanelio.
18We have sent together with him the brother whose praise in the Good News is known throughout all the assemblies.
19Aole keia wale no, aka, ua waeia hoi oia e na ekalesia i hoahele no makou me keia haawina i laweia e makou no ka nani o ka Haku, a me ka hoike ana'ku i ko oukou lokomaikai.
19Not only so, but he was also appointed by the assemblies to travel with us in this grace, which is served by us to the glory of the Lord himself, and to show our readiness.
20E makaala'na i keia, o olelo ino ia mai makou e kekahi i keia mea nui a makou e malama nei.
20We are avoiding this, that any man should blame us concerning this abundance which is administered by us.
21E hoomanao e ana i na mea maikai, aole imua o ke Akua wale no, imua hoi o kanaka.
21Having regard for honorable things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.
22A ua hoouna pu aku la makou i ko makou hoahanau me lakou, i ka mea a makou i ike pinepine ai, na ikaika i na mea he nui; ano, ua nui aku kona ikaika, i ka nui o kona manao maopopo ia oukou.
22We have sent with them our brother whom we have many times proved earnest in many things, but now much more earnest, by reason of the great confidence which he has in you.
23A i ninauia mai o Tito, o kuu hoapili ia a me kuu hoahana no oukou; a o na hoahanau hoi o makou, o lakou ka poe elele no na ekalesia, a me ka nani o Kristo.
23As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker for you. As for our brothers, they are the apostles of the assemblies, the glory of Christ.
24Nolaila, e hoike mai ia lakou, a imua hoi o na ekalesia i ka oiaio o ko oukou aloha, a me ko makou kaena ana no oukou.
24Therefore show the proof of your love to them before the assemblies, and of our boasting on your behalf.
