Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Moreover, brethren, we do you to wit of the grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia;
1E NA hoahanau, ke hoike aku nei makou ia oukou i ka lokomaikai o ke Akua i haawiia mai i na ekalesia o Makedonia;
2How that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.
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.
3For to their power, I bear record, yea, and beyond their power they were willing of themselves;
3No ka mea, ua ike maka au, e like me ko lakou Iako, a nui loa aku, no ko lakou makemake iho,
4Praying us with much intreaty that we would receive the gift, and take upon us the fellowship of the ministering to the saints.
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.
5And this they did , not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God.
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.
6Insomuch that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also finish in you the same grace also.
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.
7Therefore, as ye abound in every thing, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also.
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.
8I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.
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.
9For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.
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.
10And herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago.
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.
11Now therefore perform the doing of it ; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which ye have.
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.
12For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.
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.
13For I mean not that other men be eased, and ye burdened:
13Aole o'u makemake e mama na mea e ae, a e kaumaha oukou:
14But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality:
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:
15As it is written, He that had gathered much had nothing over; and he that had gathered little had no lack.
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.
16But thanks be to God, which put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you.
16E alohaia ke Akua nana i haawi mai keia manao ikaika iloko o ka naau o Tito no oukou.
17For indeed he accepted the exhortation; but being more forward, of his own accord he went unto you.
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.
18And we have sent with him the brother, whose praise is in the gospel throughout all the churches;
18A ua hoouna pu aku la makou me ia i ka hoahanau, nona ka hoomaikaiia mai ma na ekalesia a pau, no ka euanelio.
19And not that only, but who was also chosen of the churches to travel with us with this grace, which is administered by us to the glory of the same Lord, and declaration of your ready mind:
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.
20Avoiding this, that no man should blame us in this abundance which is administered by us:
20E makaala'na i keia, o olelo ino ia mai makou e kekahi i keia mea nui a makou e malama nei.
21Providing for honest things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.
21E hoomanao e ana i na mea maikai, aole imua o ke Akua wale no, imua hoi o kanaka.
22And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have oftentimes proved diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, upon the great confidence which I have in you.
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.
23Whether any do enquire of Titus, he is my partner and fellowhelper concerning you: or our brethren be enquired of, they are the messengers of the churches, and the glory of Christ.
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.
24Wherefore shew ye to them, and before the churches, the proof of your love, and of our boasting on your behalf.
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.
