Oihana 23
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Berean Standard Bible
1HAKA pono mai la o Paulo i ka ahalunakanawai, i mai la, E na kanaka, na hoahanau, ua noho kupa wau me ka lunaikehala maikai wale no i ke Akua a hiki mai nei i keia la.
1Paul looked directly at the Sanhedrin and said, “Brothers, I have conducted myself before God in all good conscience to this day.”
2Kena ae la ke kahuna nui o Anania i ka poe e ku kokoke ana io na la, e pai ia ia ma ka waha.
2At this, the high priest Ananias ordered those standing near Paul to strike him on the mouth.
3Alaila, i aku la o Paulo ia ia, E pai mai no hoi ke Akua ia oe, e ka paia i hookeokeoia. Ke noho nei anei oe e hooko mai i ke kanawai ia'u, a ke kena mai nei anei oe, e paiia mai au ma ka mea ku ole i ke kanawai.
3Then Paul said to him, “God will strike you, you whitewashed wall! You sit here to judge me according to the law, yet you yourself violate the law by commanding that I be struck.”
4Olelo mai la ka poe o ku ana ilaila. Ke olelo ino nei anei oe i ke kahuna nui o ke Akua?
4But those standing nearby said, “How dare you insult the high priest of God!”
5I aku la o Paulo, E na hoahanau, aole au i ike, o ke kahuna nui ia. No ka mea, ua palapalaia mai, Mai olelo hoino aku oe i ke alii o kou poe kanaka.
5“Brothers,” Paul replied, “I was not aware that he was the high priest, for it is written: ‘Do not speak evil about the ruler of your people.’”
6A ike aku la o Paulo, he poe Sadukaio kekahi o lakou, a he poe Parisaio kekahi, alaila hea aku la ia ma ka ahalunakanawai, E na kanaka, na hoahanau, he Parisaio wau, he keiki na kekahi Parisaio; a no ka manaolana i ke alahouana o ka poe make, ua hookolokoloia mai nei au.
6Then Paul, knowing that some of them were Sadducees and others Pharisees, called out in the Sanhedrin, “Brothers, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee. It is because of my hope in the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial.”
7A i kana olelo ana pela, kuee iho la ka poe Parisaio, a me ka poe Sadukaio; a mokuahana iho la ua aha kanaka la.
7As soon as he had said this, a dispute broke out between the Pharisees and Sadducees, and the assembly was divided.
8No ka mea, ua olelo mai ka poe Sadukaio, aole alahouana, aole anela, aole uhane; aka, o ka poe Parisaio, hooiaio no lakou i keia mau mea elua.
8For the Sadducees say that there is neither a resurrection, nor angels, nor spirits, but the Pharisees acknowledge them all.
9Nui loa iho la ka uwa; ku mai la na kakauolelo no ka poe Parisaio, hoopaapaa ikaika ae la lakou, i ae la, Aole loaa ia makou ka hewa iloko o keia kanaka. A ina he uhane, a he anela paha i olelo mai ia ia, mai ku e kakou i ke Akua.
9A great clamor arose, and some scribes from the party of the Pharisees got up and contended sharply, “We find nothing wrong with this man. What if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him?”
10Nui loa iho la ke kuee, no ia mea, makau ae la ka lunatausani o weluwelu o Paulo ia lakou, kena ae la ia i ka poe koa e iho ilalo, a e kaili mai ia ia mailoko mai o lakou, a e alakai aku ia ia iloko o ka pakaua.
10The dispute grew so violent that the commander was afraid they would tear Paul to pieces. He ordered the soldiers to go down and remove him by force and bring him into the barracks.
11A ia po iho, ku mai la ka Haku imua ona, i mai la, E hoolana oe, e Paulo; no ka mea, e like me kou hoike ana aku ia'u ma Ierusalema nei, pela no hoi oe e hoike aku ai ia'u ma Roma.
11The following night the Lord stood near Paul and said, “Take courage! As you have testified about Me in Jerusalem, so also you must testify in Rome.”
12A wanaao, ohumu kuikahi mai la kekahi poe Iudaio e hoohalua ia ia, hoohiki ae la, aole loa lakou e ai, aole hoi e inu, a pepehi lakou ia Paulo.
12When daylight came, the Jews formed a conspiracy and bound themselves with an oath not to eat or drink until they had killed Paul.
13He kanaha lakou a keu aku i ohumu pela i keia hoohalua ana.
13More than forty of them were involved in this plot.
14Hele mai la lakou i na kahuna nui a me na lunakahiko, i mai la, Ua hoohiki makou ia makou iho i kahi hoino nui, aole loa makou e ai a pepehi makou ia Paulo.
14They went to the chief priests and elders and said, “We have bound ourselves with a solemn oath not to eat anything until we have killed Paul.
15No ia mea, ano, e nonoi aku oukou me ka ahalunakanawai i ka lunatausani, e kai mai ia ia io oukou nei, i ka la apopo, me he mea la e ninau hou aku i mea e akaka'i nona: a o makou nei, ua makaukau makou e pepehi ia ia i ka wa aole ia e hiki kokoke mai.
15Now then, you and the Sanhedrin petition the commander to bring him down to you on the pretext of examining his case more carefully. We are ready to kill him on the way.”
16A lohe ke keikikane a ke kaikuwahine o Paulo i ko lakou hoohalua ana, hele aku la ia, komo aku la iloko o ka pakaua, a hai aku la ia Paulo.
16But when the son of Paul’s sister heard about the plot, he went into the barracks and told Paul.
17Alaila, hea aku la o Paulo i kekahi o na lunahaneri, i aku la ia ia, E alakai oe i keia kanaka opio i ka lunatausani; no ka mea, he olelo kana e hai aku ai ia ia.
17Then Paul called one of the centurions and said, “Take this young man to the commander; he has something to tell him.”
18Nolaila, lawe ae la oia ia ia, alakai aku la i ka lunatausani, i aku la, I hea mai nei ia'u o Paulo ka mea i paa, a nonoi mai ia'u e alakai mai i keia kanaka opio ia oe, he olelo kana e hai aku ai ia oe.
18So the centurion took him to the commander and said, “Paul the prisoner sent and asked me to bring this young man to you. He has something to tell you.”
19Alaila, lalau ae la ka lunatausani i kona lima, a hele malu ae la, ninau aku la, Heaha kau mea e hai mai ia'u?
19The commander took the young man by the hand, drew him aside, and asked, “What do you need to tell me?”
20I aku la ia, Ua ohumu ka poe Iudaio e nonoi aku ia oe e kai aku ia Paulo i ka ahalunakanawai, i ka la apopo, me he mea la e ninau hou aku i mea nona e akaka'i.
20He answered, “The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul to the Sanhedrin tomorrow on the pretext of acquiring more information about him.
21Mai ae aku oe ia lakou; no ka mea, ke hoohalua nei nona hookahi kanaha kanaka, a keu o lakou; ua hoohiki lakou ia lakou iho i kahi hoino nui, aole e ai, aole hoi e inu, a pepehi lakou ia ia: Ano hoi ke makaukau nei lakou, e kakali ana no kau olelo.
21Do not let them persuade you, because more than forty men are waiting to ambush him. They have bound themselves with an oath not to eat or drink until they have killed him; they are ready now, awaiting your consent.”
22Nolaila kuu mai la ka lunatausani i ua kanaka opio la, papa mai la, Mai hai ae oe i kekahi kanaka i kou hoike ana mai ia'u i keia mau mea.
22So the commander dismissed the young man and instructed him, “Do not tell anyone that you have reported this to me.”
23Nolaila, kii aku la ia i na lunahaneri elua, i aku la, E hoomakaukau i na koa, elua haneri, e hele i Kaisareia, a me na hoohololio, he kanahiku, a me na kanaka ihe, elua haneri, i ke kolu o ka hora o ka po;
23Then he called two of his centurions and said, “Prepare two hundred soldiers, seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen to go to Caesarea in the third hour of the night.
24A e hoomakaukau i na holonolona hoi, i kau lakou ia Paulo maluna, a e lawe maikai aku ia ia io Pelika la, i ke alii kiaaina.
24Provide mounts for Paul to take him safely to Governor Felix.”
25Kakau aku la ia i kekahi palapala, penei;
25And he wrote the following letter:
26O Kelaudio Lusia, i ke alii kiaaina hanohano, ia Pelika, aloha:
26Claudius Lysias, To His Excellency, Governor Felix: Greetings.
27Ua hopuia keia kanaka e na Iudaio, a mai pepehiia oia e lakou; alaila, hiki e aku la au me ka poe koa, a hoopakele ia ia, no ko'u lohe ana, he Roma ia.
27This man was seized by the Jews, and they were about to kill him when I came with my troops to rescue him. For I had learned that he is a Roman citizen,
28A i kou ake ana e ike i ke kumu a lakou i hoopii ai ia ia, kai ae la au ia ia iloko o ko lakou ahalunakanawai:
28and since I wanted to understand their charges against him, I brought him down to their Sanhedrin.
29A ike aku la au ia ia, ua hoopiiia oia no kekahi mau mea o ko lakou kanawai, aole hoi lakou i hoopii mai ia ia, ma ka mea e pono ai ka make, a me ka paa.
29I found that the accusation involved questions about their own law, but there was no charge worthy of death or imprisonment.
30A i haiia mai ia'u ka hoohalua ana o na Iudaio i ua kanaka la, hoouna koke aku la au ia oe, a kauoha aku la no hoi i ka poe i hoopii mai ia ia, e hai aku imua ou i ka mea a lakou i ike ai ia ia. Aloha oe.
30When I was informed that there was a plot against the man, I sent him to you at once. I also instructed his accusers to present their case against him before you.
31Alaila, lawe ae la ka poe koa ia Paulo, e like me ke kena ana mai ia lakou, a alakai aku la ia ia i ka po, i Anetipateri.
31So the soldiers followed their orders and brought Paul by night to Antipatris.
32A ia la ae, waiho iho la lakou i ka poe hoohololio, e hele pu me ia, a hoi aku la lakou i ka pakaua.
32The next day they returned to the barracks and let the horsemen go on with him.
33A hiki aku la lakou i Kaisareia, haawi aku la lakou i ka palapala i ke alii kiaaina, a hooku iho la ia Paulo imua ona.
33When the horsemen arrived in Caesarea, they delivered the letter to the governor and presented Paul to him.
34A heluhelu iho la ke alii, a ninau mai la ia, No ka panalaau hea ia? A lohe ia, no Kilikia,
34The governor read the letter and asked what province Paul was from. Learning that he was from Cilicia,
35I mai la ia, A hiki mai ka poe hoopii ia oe, alaila e hoolohe aku au ia oe. Kauoha ae la ia e malamaia oia maloko o ko Herode hale alii.
35he said, “I will hear your case when your accusers arrive.” Then he ordered that Paul be kept under guard in Herod’s Praetorium.
