Roma 9
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Berean Standard Bible
1KE olelo aku nei au i ka oiaio ma Kristo, aole o'u hoopunipuni, a o kuu lunamanao kekahi e hoike nei ia'u, ma ka Uhane Hemolele;
1I speak the truth in Christ; I am not lying, as confirmed by my conscience in the Holy Spirit.
2He kaumaha nui ko'u a me ka ehaeha mau ma kuu naau.
2I have deep sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart.
3No ka mea, he pono i kuu manao e okiia mai au, mai o Kristo mai, no kuu poe hoahanau, na hanauna o'u ma ke kino.
3For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, my own flesh and blood,
4He poe Iseraela lakou, ia lakou ka hookamaia, a me ka nani, a me na berita, a me ka haawi ana mai i ke kanawai, a me ka hoomana, a me na olelo pomaikai;
4the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption as sons; theirs the divine glory and the covenants; theirs the giving of the law, the temple worship, and the promises.
5No lakou hoi ka poe kupuna, a na lakou mai hoi o Kristo ma ke kino, oia no maluna o na mea a pau, ke Akua hoomaikai mau loa ia. Amene.
5Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them proceeds the human descent of Christ, who is God over all, forever worthy of praise! Amen.
6Aole nae i haule wale ka olelo a ke Akua. No ka mea, aole ka poe Iseraela lakou a pau na Iseraela mai:
6It is not as though God’s word has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel.
7Aole hoi he poe keiki lakou a pau ka poe mamo na Aberahama mai; aka, maloko o Isaaka e kohoia ai kaa poe mamo;
7Nor because they are Abraham’s descendants are they all his children. On the contrary, “Through Isaac your offspring will be reckoned.”
8Oia hoi o na keiki ma ke kino, aole lakou ka poe keiki na ke Akua; aka, o na keiki a ka olelo hoopomaikai e heluia na mamo.
8So it is not the children of the flesh who are God’s children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as offspring.
9No ka mea, penei ka olelo hoopomaikai, I keia wa e hoi mai ana au, a e loaa ia Sara he keiki kane.
9For this is what the promise stated: “At the appointed time I will return, and Sarah will have a son.”
10Aole hoi keia wale no; aka, o Rebeka kekahi, hapai ae la ia na kekahi, na Isaaka ko kakou kupuna kane,
10Not only that, but Rebecca’s children were conceived by one man, our father Isaac.
11No ka mea, (aole laua i hanau, aole hoi i hana i ka mea maikai, aole hoi i ka hewa, i kupaa ai ka manao o ke Akua, ma ka wae ana, aole no ka hana, aka, no ka mea nana i koho mai,)
11Yet before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad, in order that God’s plan of election might stand,
12Ua haiia mai keia ia ia, E hookauwa aku ke kaikuaana na ke kaikaina;
12not by works but by Him who calls, she was told, “The older will serve the younger.”
13Me ka mea i palapalaia mai, O Iakoba ka'u i aluha ai, a o Esau hoi ka'u i hoowahawaha ai.
13So it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”
14Heaha hoi ka kakou e olelo nei? He hewa anei ko ke Akua? Aole loa.
14What then shall we say? Is God unjust? Certainly not!
15No ka mea, ua olelo mai la oia ia Mose, E aloha ana au i ka'u mea e aloha aku ai, a e menemene ana au i ka'u mea e menemene aku ai.
15For He says to Moses: “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”
16No ia hoi, aole na ka mea e makemake ana, aole hoi na ka mea e holo ana, aka, na ke Akua no, nana i aloha mai.
16So then, it does not depend on man’s desire or effort, but on God’s mercy.
17No ka mea, olelo mai la ka Palapala hemolele ia Parao, No keia wahi mea ua hoala mai au ia oe, i hoike aku au i ko'u mana ma ou la, a i kaulana ai ko'u inoa ma ka honua a pau.
17For the Scripture says to Pharaoh: “I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power in you, and that My name might be proclaimed in all the earth.”
18Nolaila hoi, ua aloha mai ai oia i kana mea i manao ai, a ua hoopaakiki hoi oia i kana mea i manao ai.
18Therefore God has mercy on whom He wants to have mercy, and He hardens whom He wants to harden.
19A e ninau mai no hoi oe ia'u, No ke aha la ia i hoohewa mai ai? Nawai la hoi kona makemake i pale aku?
19One of you will say to me, “Then why does God still find fault? For who can resist His will?”
20Kahaha, E ke kanaka, owai la hoi oe ke pakike aku i ke Akua? E pono anei i ka mea i hanaia, ke olelo aku i ka mea nana i hana, No ke aha la oe i hana mai ai ia'u pela?
20But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? Shall what is formed say to Him who formed it, “Why did You make me like this?”
21Aole anei e hiki i ka potera ke hana iho noloko o ka popo lepo hookahi i kekahi ipu no ka mahaloia, a i kekahi no ka mahalo ole ia?
21Does not the potter have the right to make from the same lump of clay one vessel for special occasions and another for common use?
22Heaha hoi, ina, e manao ana ke Akua, e hoomaopopo i koua huhu, a e hoike hoi i kona mana, ua hoomanawanui mai ia mo ke ahonui loa i na ipu e huhuia i hoomakaukauia no ka luku;
22What if God, intending to show His wrath and make His power known, bore with great patience the vessels of His wrath, prepared for destruction?
23A e hoike mai hoi i ka nui o kona lokomaikai mai i na ipu e alohaia ana i hoomakaukau mua ai no ka nani,
23What if He did this to make the riches of His glory known to the vessels of His mercy, whom He prepared in advance for glory—
24Ia kakou hoi ka poe ana i koho mai ai, aole mawaena o ka poe Indaio wale no, mawaena o na kauaka e kekahi.
24including us, whom He has called not only from the Jews, but also from the Gentiles?
25E like me kana i olelo mai ai ma Hosea, E kapa ana au i ka poe kanaka aole no'u, i poe kanaka no'u, a me ka mea i aloha ole ia, i mea aloha.
25As He says in Hosea: “I will call them ‘My People’ who are not My people, and I will call her ‘My Beloved’ who is not My beloved,”
26A ma kahi i oleloia'i ia lakou, Aole o ko'u poe kanaka oukou; ma laila e kapaia'i lakou he poe keiki lakou a ke Akua ola.
26and, “It will happen that in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’”
27Ua olelo mai hoi o Isaia no ka Iseraela, Ina he lehulehu na mamo a Iseraela, e like me ke one o ke kai, he hapa ka poe e hoolaia.
27Isaiah cries out concerning Israel: “Though the number of the Israelites is like the sand of the sea, only the remnant will be saved.
28No ka mea, e hooko ana oia i kana olelo, a ua paa ia ma ka pono, no ka mea, e hana ana ka Haku ma ka honua i kana mea i hai maopopo ai.
28For the Lord will carry out His sentence on the earth thoroughly and decisively.”
29E like hoi me ka Isaia i olelo mua mai ai, Ina i waiho ole mai Iehova Sabaota i koena no kakou, ina, ua like pu kakou me Sodoma, a ua hoohalikeia hoi me Gomora.
29It is just as Isaiah foretold: “Unless the Lord of Hosts had left us descendants, we would have become like Sodom, we would have resembled Gomorrah.”
30Heaha ka kakou e olelo nei no ia? O ko na aina e, ka poe i imi ole i ka hoaponoia, ua loaa ia lakou ka hoaponoia, o ka hoaponoia ma ka manaoio.
30What then will we say? That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained it, a righteousness that is by faith;
31Aka, o ka Iseraela, ka poe i imi i ke kanawai e hoaponoia'i, aole loaa ia lakou ke kanawai e hoaponoia'i.
31but Israel, who pursued a law of righteousness, has not attained it.
32No ke aha? No ka mea, aole imi ma ka manaoio, aka, ma na hana ana o ke kanawai: no ka mea, ua kuia lakou i kela pohaku e kuia'i;
32Why not? Because their pursuit was not by faith, but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone,
33E like me ka mea i palapalaia, Eia hoi, ke waiho nei au ma Ziona i ka pohaku e kuia'i, a i ka pohaku e hina ai: a o ka mea i manaoio ia ia, aole ia e hoka.
33as it is written: “See, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense; and the one who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”
