Epeso 2
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1O OUKOU hoi kekahi, oka poe i make iloko o na hala a me na hewa;
1And you, when you were dead in your offences, and sins,
2Ma ia mau mea oukou i hele ai mamua, ma ka aoao o keia ao, mamuli o ke alii ikaika o ka lewa, o ka uhane e hooikaika ana iloko o na keiki hoolohe ole.
2Wherein in time past you walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of this air, of the spirit that now worketh on the children of unbelief:
3Me lakou hoi makou a pau i noho ai mamua ma na kuko newa o ko makou kino, e hana ana i na raakemake o ke kino a mo ka naau; a ma ka aoao maoli he poe keiki makou no ka inainaia, e like me na mea e ae.
3In which also we all conversed in time past, in the desires of our flesh, fulfilling the will of the flesh and of our thoughts, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest:
4Aka, o ke Akua, ka mea i piha i ko aloha, ma kona makemake nui ana i makemake mai ai ia kakou,
4But God, (who is rich in mercy,) for his exceeding charity wherewith he loved us,
5I ko kakou wa make i na hala, ua hoola mai oia ia kakou pu me Kristo, (ma ka lokomaikai oukou e ola'i;)
5Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together in Christ, (by whose grace you are saved,)
6A ua hoala pu ae la, a ua hoonoho pu iho la hoi ia kakou i kahi lani ma o Kristo Iesu la:
6And hath raised us up together, and hath made us sit together in the heavenly places, through Christ Jesus.
7I hoike mai ai oia i na manawa mahope aku i ka nui loa o kona lokomaikai, ma ka hana maikai mai ia kakou ma o Kristo Iesu la.
7That he might shew in the ages to come the abundant riches of his grace, in his bounty towards us in Christ Jesus.
8No ka mea, e hoolaia oukou i ka lokomaikai ma ka manaoio; aole hoi no oukou iho keia; he mea haawiia mai ia e ke Akua:
8For by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, for it is the gift of God;
9Aole no na hana ana, o kaena auanei kekahi.
9Not of works, that no man may glory.
10No ka mea, o kakou kana hana i hanaia ma o Kristo Iesu la, no na hana maikai, a ke Akua i hoomakaukau e mai ai, i haele kakou malaila.
10For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus in good works, which God hath prepared that we should walk in them.
11No ia hoi, e hoomanao oukou, he lahuikanaka e oukou mamua ma ke kino, i kapaia he okipoepoe ole e ka poe i kapaia he okipoepoeia ma ke kino e na lima.
11For which cause be mindful that you, being heretofore Gentiles in the flesh, who are called uncircumcision by that which is called circumcision in the flesh, made by hands;
12Ia manawa, aole oukou i ike ia Kristo, he poe malihini oukou i ke aupuni o ka Iseraela, a he poe kanaka e i na berita o ka olelo hoopomaikai, aole o oukou manaolana, a he poe mea Akua ole ma koia ao.
12That you were at that time without Christ, being aliens from the conversation of Israel, and strangers to the testament, having no hope of the promise, and without God in this world.
13Aka, i neia manawa iloko o Kristo Iesu, o oukou ka poe i mamao aku mamua, ua hookokokeia mai ma ko koko o Kristo.
13But now in Christ Jesus, you, who some time were afar off, are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
14No ka mea, oia ko kakou mea hookuikahi, ka i hoolilo i na mea elua i hookahi, a ua wawahi iho hoi i ka paku hookaawale iwaena;
14For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and breaking down the middle wall of partition, the enmities in his flesh:
15Ua hoopau ae la hoi oia ma kona kino i ka mea e inaina ai, oia ko kanawai no na kauoha e me na kapu, i hoolilo ai oia i na mea elua i kanaka hou hookahi malalo iho ona, pela e hookuikahi ana;
15Making void the law of commandments contained in decrees; that he might make the two in himself into one new man, making peace;
16I hoomalu ai hoi oia ia laua elua no ke Akua iloko o ke kino hookahi ma ke kea, e hoopau ana malaila i ka mea e inaina ai:
16And might reconcile both to God in one body by the cross, killing the enmities in himself.
17Ua hele mai hoi, a hai mai la i ka olelo hoomalu ia oukou i ka poe mamao aku a me ka poe kokoke.
17And coming, he preached peace to you that were afar off, and peace to them that were nigh.
18No ia hoi, ua loaa ia kakou i na poe elua ka hookipaia e ia iloko o ka Makua ma ka Uhane hookahi.
18For by him we have access both in one Spirit to the Father.
19Nolaila hoi, aole oukou he poe malihini a me ka poe kanaka e, aka, he poe kamaaina pu oukou me na haipule a me na ohua o ke Akua:
19Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners; but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and the domestics of God,
20Ua kukuluia oukou maluna o ke kahua a na lunaolelo a me na kaula, o Iesu Kristo iho no ka pohaku kumu o ke kihi.
20Built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone:
21A ua kapili pono ia ka hale a pau ma o na la, a lilo ae la ia i luakini laa no ka Haku.
21In whom all the building, being framed together, groweth up into an holy temple in the Lord.
22Ilaila hoi oukou i kapili pu ia'i, i wahi e noho ai o ke Akua ma ka Uhane.
22In whom you also are built together into an habitation of God in the Spirit.
