King James Version with Apocrypha
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others , epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you?
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?
2Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:
2O oukou no ka makou palapala i kakauia maloko o ko makou naau, i ikeia a i heluheluia e na kanaka a pau.
3Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.
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.
4And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward:
4Pela ko makou manao maopopo i ke Akua ma o Kristo la:
5Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of 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.
6Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
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.
7But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away:
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;
8How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?
8Aole anei e oi nui aku ka nani o ka oihana o ka Uhane?
9For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.
9No ka mea, ina paha he nani ko ka oihana hoohewa, he oiaio no, ua pakela aku ka nani o ka oihana hoapono.
10For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.
10No keia mea, aohe nani o kela mea i hoouaniia pela, no keia pakela nani.
11For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.
11Ina he nani ko kela mea i hoonalowaleia; oiaio, he nani ko ka mea e mau loa aku ana.
12Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:
12No ia hoi, no ka loaa ana mai ia makou keia manaolana, he olelo wiwo ole ka makou:
13And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:
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:
14But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
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.
15But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.
15A i neia manawa, i ka heluhelu ana i ka Mose, e kau ana no ua pale la maluna o ko lakou naau.
16Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.
16Aia huli mai ia i ka Haku, alaila e laweia aku no ua pale la.
17Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is , there is liberty.
17A o ka Haku, oia ka Uhane: a ma kahi e noho ai ka Uhane o ka Haku, ua noa ia wahi.
18But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
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.
