Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Now about that time, King Herod stretched out his hands to oppress some of the assembly.
1A MA ia wa, o aku la na lima o Herode o ke alii e hoomaino aku i kekaki poe o ka ekalesia.
2He killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.
2Pepehi aku la oia ia Iakobo ke kaikuaana o Ioane i ka pahikaua.
3When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This was during the days of unleavened bread.
3A ike aku la ia, ua maikai keia i na Iudaio, hana hou aku la no ia, a hopu iho la ia Petero. (Oia na la o ka barena hu ole.)
4When he had arrested him, he put him in prison and delivered him to four squads of four soldiers each to guard him, intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.
4A paa, alaila hahao aku la oia ia ia iloko o ka halepaahao, a haawi aku la ia ia i kekahi poe koa, eha kauna, na lakou e malama. Manao iho la ia, a pau ka moliaola, alaila e lawe mai ia ia imua o na kanaka.
5Peter therefore was kept in the prison, but constant prayer was made by the assembly to God for him.
5Kiaiia iho la o Petero maloko o ka halepaahao; aka, pule ikaika aku la ka ekalesia i ke Akua nona.
6The same night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains. Guards in front of the door kept the prison.
6A i ka wa a Herode i manao ai e lawe mai ia ia iwaho, ia po, e moe ana no o Petero mawaena o na koa elua, ua nakinakiia i na kaulahao elua; a o na kiai mamua o ka puka, e malama ana no i ka halepaahao.
7And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up, saying, “Stand up quickly!” His chains fell off his hands.
7Aia hoi, he anela o ka Haku i ku mai la, a anapu mai la ka malamalama maloko o ka halepaahao; paipai mai la oia ma ko Petero aoao, hoala mai ia ia, i mai la, E ala koke oe. A haule iho la na kaulahao mai kona lima iho.
8The angel said to him, “Get dressed and put on your sandals.” He did so. He said to him, “Put on your cloak and follow me.”
8I mai la ka anela ia ia, E liki oe ia oe iho, a e hawele i kou kamaa. Hana iho la no ia pela. I mai la kela ia ia, E aahu oe i kou kapa, a e hahai mai ia'u.
9And he went out and followed him. He didn’t know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he saw a vision.
9Hele aku Ia hoi ia iwaho, a hahai aku la ia ia. Aole ia i ike, he oiaio ka mea i hanaia mai ai e ka anela; manao iho la ia, he hihio kana i ike ai.
10When they were past the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads into the city, which opened to them by itself. They went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.
10A hala kekahi papa kiai, a me ka lua o ka papa, a hiki aku laua i ka pani hao e hiki aku ai i ke kulanakanhale; wehe wale mai ka puka no laua, a puka aku la lana mawaho, a hele aku la, a hala kekahi alanui; haalele koke iho la ka anela ia ia.
11When Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I truly know that the Lord has sent out his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from everything the Jewish people were expecting.”
11A loaa ia Petero ka manao maopopo, i iho li ia, Ua ike maopopo an, he oiaio no; ua hoouna mai ka Haku i kona anela, a ua hoopakele mai nei ia'u mai ka lima o Herode, a me ka manao a pau o na Iudaio.
12Thinking about that, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John who was called Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.
12I kona hoomaopopo ana ae, hele mai la ia i ka hale o Maria, ka makuwahine o Ioane, i kapaia o Mareko; he poe nui hoi ka i akoakoa mai malaila, e pule ana.
13When Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer.
13I kona kikeke ana ma ka puka o ka hale, hele mai la kekahi kaikamahine e hoolohe, o Rode kona inoa.
14When she recognized Peter’s voice, she didn’t open the gate for joy, but ran in and reported that Peter was standing in front of the gate.
14A ike iho la ia i ko Petero leo, aole ia i wehe i ka puka no ka olioli, holo aku la oia iloko, a hai aku la i ke ku ana mai o Petero ma ke alo o ka puka.
15They said to her, “You are crazy!” But she insisted that it was so. They said, “It is his angel.”
15I mai la lakou ia ia. Ua hehena oe. Hoopaa loa aku la kela, he oiaio no. I mai la lakou, O kona anela.
16But Peter continued knocking. When they had opened, they saw him and were amazed.
16Hoomau aku la o Petero e kikeke ana, a wehe ae la lakou a ike aku la ia ia, kahaba iho la ko lakou naau.
17But he, beckoning to them with his hand to be silent, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. He said, “Tell these things to James and to the brothers.” Then he departed and went to another place.
17Peahi mai la me ka lima ia lakou, e noho malie, a hai mai la oia ia lakou i ka lawe ana mai o ka Haku ia ia mailoko mai o ka halepaahao. I mai la ia, E hai aku i keia mau mea ia Iakobo, a me na hoahanau. Haalele aku la oia ia wahi, a hele aku la i kahi e.
18Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.
18I ke ao ana ae, nui loa iho la ka pioloke o ka poe koa, i ka mea i lilo aku ai o Petero.
19When Herod had sought for him and didn’t find him, he examined the guards, then commanded that they should be put to death. He went down from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.
19Imi iho la o Herode ia ia, aole nae i loaa, alaila hookolokolo aku la ia i na kiai, kena ae la, e make lakou. A hele aku la ia mai Iudea aku a Kaisareia, a noho iho la ilaila.
20Now Herod was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They came with one accord to him and, having made Blastus, the king’s personal aide, their friend, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king’s country for food.
20Huhu loa iho la o Herode i ko Turo, a mo ko Sidona. Hele lokahi mai la lakou io na la, hoomalimali mai la ia Belaseto, i ka mea nana i malama kahi moe o ko alii, nonoi mai la lakou i kuikahi; no ka mea, ua hanaiia ko lakou aina e ko ke alii.
21On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and gave a speech to them.
21A i ka la i hai mua ia'i, aahu iho la o Herode i ke kapa alii, a noho iho la ma ka nohoalii, e olelo aku ia lakou.
22The people shouted, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!”
22Uwa mai la na kanaka, E, he leo ka, no ke Akua, aole no ke kanaka.
23Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he didn’t give God the glory. Then he was eaten by worms and died.
23Uhau koke mai la ka anela o ka Haku ia ia, no kona hoonani ole ana i ke Akua. Aiia iho la ia e na ilo, a kaili aku la ke aho.
24But the word of God grew and multiplied.
24Ulu ae la ka olelo a ke Akua a mahuahua aku la.
25Barnabas and Saul returned to Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their service, also taking with them John who was called Mark.
25A pau ka hana a Barenaba, laua me Saulo, hoi aku laua mai Ierusalema aku, a lawe pu aku la ia Ioane i kapaia o Mareko.
