Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1So let a man think of us as Christ’s servants and stewards of God’s mysteries.
1E PONO i kanaka ke manao mai ia makou, he poe lawehana no Kristo, he poe puuku hoi no na mea pohihihi o ke Akua.
2Here, moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found faithful.
2Eia hoi, ua kauohaia mai na puuku, i pololei lakou.
3But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you, or by a human court. Yes, I don’t even judge my own self.
3He mea liilii loa ia'u, ke ahewaia mai a ke aponoia mai au e oukou, a me kanaka. He oiaio, aole au i ahewa, aole hoi i apono ia'u iho.
4For I know nothing against myself. Yet I am not justified by this, but he who judges me is the Lord.
4Aole au i ike pono i ko'u hewa, aole nae au i aponoia mai ilaila. Na ka Haku no wau e hookolokolo mai.
5Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each man will get his praise from God.
5No ia mea, mai hoohewa e i kekahi mea, a hiki mai ka Haku, nana no e hoomaopopo mai na mea i hunaia o ka pouli, a e hoike mai hoi na manao o na naau; alaila e loaa mai i kela kanaka a i keia kanaka ka hoomaikaiia, mai ke Akua mai.
6Now these things, brothers, I have in a figure transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that in us you might learn not to think beyond the things which are written, that none of you be puffed up against one another.
6E na hoahanau, no oukou no ke hoopili nei au ia mau mea io'u nei, a me Apolo; i aoia oukou ma o maua nei aole e hookiekie ka manao maluna o ka mea i palapalaia, i ole oukou e kaena aku i kekahi maluna o kekahi.
7For who makes you different? And what do you have that you didn’t receive? But if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?
7Owai ka mea i hoopakela ia oe? Heaha hoi kau mea i haawi ole ia mai nau? A ina i haawi wale ia mai ia, no ke aha la oe e kaena ai ia, me he mea la i haawi ole ia mai?
8You are already filled. You have already become rich. You have come to reign without us. Yes, and I wish that you did reign, that we also might reign with you!
8Ano la, ua maona oukou, ano la, ua waiwai oukou; ua nohoalii no hoi oukou a kaawale makou; ua makemake no nae au i nohoalii io oukou, i nohoalii pu ai makou me oukou.
9For I think that God has displayed us, the apostles, last of all, like men sentenced to death. For we are made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and men.
9No ka mea, ke manao nei au, ua hoolilo mai ke Akua ia makou i na lunaolelo, i poe lalo loa, e like me na mea i ahewaia e make. No ka mea, he poe makou i hoikeia i ko ke ao nei, a i na anela, a i na kanaka.
10We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You have honor, but we have dishonor.
10He poe naaupo makou no Kristo, he poe naauao oukou iloko o Kristo; ua nawaliwali makou, ua ikaika oukou; ua mahaloia mai oukou, ua hoowahawahaia mai makou.
11Even to this present hour we hunger, thirst, are naked, are beaten, and have no certain dwelling place.
11A hiki i keia hora, ua pololi makou, ua makewai, ua olohelohe, ua hana ino ia mai, ua kuewa wale no.
12We toil, working with our own hands. When people curse us, we bless. Being persecuted, we endure.
12Ke hooikaika nei makou i ka hana, me ko makou lima; a ahiahiia mai, hoomaikai aku no makou: a hoomaauia mai, ua hoomanawanui no makou;
13Being defamed, we entreat. We are made as the filth of the world, the dirt wiped off by all, even until now.
13A i olelo hoino ia mai, nonoi aku no makou: ua hooliloia mai makou e like me ka opala o ke ao nei, a me ka pelapela o na mea a pau, a hiki i keia wa.
14I don’t write these things to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children.
14Aole au e palapala aku i keia mau mea e hoohilahila ia oukou, aka, ke ao aku nei au ia oukou, e like me a'u poe keiki aloha.
15For though you have ten thousand tutors in Christ, you don’t have many fathers. For in Christ Jesus, I became your father through the Good News.
15Ina paha he umi tausani kumu a oukou maloko o Kristo, aole hoi he nui na makua o oukou; no ka mea, ma ka euanelio, owau no ka mea nana oukou i hanau ai iloko o Kristo Iesu.
16I beg you therefore, be imitators of me.
16Nolaila ea, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oukou, e lilo oukou i poe hoolike me au.
17Because of this I have sent Timothy to you, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, who will remind you of my ways which are in Christ, even as I teach everywhere in every assembly.
17No keia mea, ua hoouna aku au ia Timoteo io oukou la, oia hoi ka'u keiki aloha, ua paa loa hoi oia ma ka Haku, nana oukou e paipai aku i na aoao o'u ma o Kristo la, e like me ka'u no ana aku i na wahi a pau, i kela ekalesia i keia ekalesia.
18Now some are puffed up, as though I were not coming to you.
18Ke haanou mai nei kekahi poe me ka manao iho, aole au e hiki aku io oukou la.
19But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord is willing. And I will know, not the word of those who are puffed up, but the power.
19Aka, e hele koke aku no au io oukou la, ke ae mai ka Haku, a e ike auanei au, aole i ka olelo a ka poe i haanou, aka, i ka ikaika io.
20For God’s Kingdom is not in word, but in power.
20No ka mea, aole ma ka olelo ke aupuni o ke Akua, ma ka mana no.
21What do you want? Shall I come to you with a rod, or in love and a spirit of gentleness?
21Heaha ko oukou makemake? E hele paha wau io oukou la me ka laau hahau, me ke aloha paha, a me ka manao akahai?
