Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Some men came down from Judea and taught the brothers, “Unless you are circumcised after the custom of Moses, you can’t be saved.”
1A IHO mai la kekahi poe, mai Iudea mai ao mai la lakou i na hoahanau, Ina aole oukou e okipoepoeia, e like me ka aono o Mose, aole hiki ia oukou ke hoolaia.
2Therefore when Paul and Barnabas had no small discord and discussion with them, they appointed Paul, Barnabas, and some others of them to go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders about this question.
2Nui iho la ke kamailio ku e, a me ka hoopaapaa ana o lakou me Paulo laua me Barenaba. Manao iho la lakou e hele o Paulo, me Barenaba, a me kekahi poe o lakou, i Ierusalema, i na lunaolelo, a me na lunakahiko, no keia manao.
3They, being sent on their way by the assembly, passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles. They caused great joy to all the brothers.
3Na ka ekalesia lakou i kai maikai aku, a kaahele lakou ma Poinike, a ma Samaria e hai mai ana i ka huli ana o ko na aina e; a hoolioli loa lakou i na hoahanau a pau.
4When they had come to Jerusalem, they were received by the assembly and the apostles and the elders, and they reported everything that God had done with them.
4A hiki lakou i Ierusalema, apo mai la ka ekalesia ia lakou, a me na lunaolelo, a me na lunakahiko, a hai aku la lakou i na mea a pau a ke Akua i hana mai ai mo lakou.
5But some of the sect of the Pharisees who believed rose up, saying, “It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.”
5Ku mai la kekahi poe i manaoio, noloko mai o ka aoao Parisaio, i mai la, Pono ke okipoepoe ia lakou, a e kauoha aku e malama i ke kanawai o Mose.
6The apostles and the elders were gathered together to see about this matter.
6Hoakoakoa mai la ka poe lunaolelo, a me na lunakahiko, e kukakuka i keia mea.
7When there had been much discussion, Peter rose up and said to them, “Brothers, you know that a good while ago God made a choice among you that by my mouth the nations should hear the word of the Good News and believe.
7Nui loa iho la ka hoopaapaa, alaila, ku mai la o Petero, i mai la ia lakou, E na kanaka, na hoahanau, ua ike no oukou i na la mamua, wau no ko kakou mea a ke Akua i wae ai, i lohe ko na aina e i ka olelo maikai ma ko'u waha, a e manaoio mai.
8God, who knows the heart, testified about them, giving them the Holy Spirit, just like he did to us.
8A na ke Akua, ka mea i ike i ka naau, i koike mai no lakou, e haawi ana ia lakou i ka Uhaue Hemolele, me ia ia kakou.
9He made no distinction between us and them, cleansing their hearts by faith.
9Aole ia i hookaawale iki mawaena o kakou a me lakou, hoomaemae no ia i ko lakou naau i ka manaoio ana.
10Now therefore why do you tempt God, that you should put a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
10No ia mea la ea, no ke aha la oukou e hoao aku nei i ke Akua e kau mai maluna o ka ai o na haumana i ka auamo hiki ole ia kakon a me ko kakou poe kupuna, ke amo?
11But we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, just as they are.”
11Ke manaoio nei no hoi kakou, e hoolaia'i kakou i ka lokomaikai mai o ka Haku, o Iesu e like me lakou.
12All the multitude kept silence, and they listened to Barnabas and Paul reporting what signs and wonders God had done among the nations through them.
12Alaila noho malie ua ahakanaka la n pau, hoolohe aku la ia Barenaba laua me Paulo, i ko laua hai ana i na hoailona mana, a me na mea kupanaha a ke Akua i hana mai ai ma o laua la iwaena o ko na aina e.
13After they were silent, James answered, “Brothers, listen to me.
13Mahope iho i ko laua oki ana alaila olelo mai la o Iakobo, i mai la, E na kanaka, na hoahanau, e hoolohe mai ia'u:
14Simeon has reported how God first visited the nations to take out of them a people for his name.
14Ua hai mai noi o Simeona i ko ke Akua holo ana mai mamua aku nei e ike i ko na aina e, e lawe mai i kekahi poe kanaka no kona inoa, mailoko mai o lakou.
15This agrees with the words of the prophets. As it is written,
15Ua pili no hoi ka olelo a na kaula i keia mea: penei ka palapala ana,
16‘After these things I will return. I will again build the tabernacle of David, which has fallen. I will again build its ruins. I will set it up
16A mahope iho, e hoi hou mai au, a e kukulu hou ae i ka halelewa o Davida i hiolo; a e hookuikui hou au i na mea hina, a e kukulu hou ia;
17that the rest of men may seek after the Lord: all the Gentiles who are called by my name, says the Lord, who does all these things.’
17I imi ai hoi na mea i koe o kanaka i ka Haku, a me ko na aina e a pau, ka poe i heaia ko'u inoa maluna o lakou, wahi a ka Haku, nana i hana keia mau mea.
18“All of God’s works are known to him from eternity.
18Mai kinohi mai ua ikeia no e ke Akua kana hana ana a pau.
19Therefore my judgment is that we don’t trouble those from among the Gentiles who turn to God,
19Nolaila hoi, ke manao aku nei au, aole e hookaumaha i ko na aina e i hoohuliia mai i ke Akua:
20but that we write to them that they abstain from the pollution of idols, from sexual immorality, from what is strangled, and from blood.
20E palapala aku no nae kakou ia lakou, e hookaaokoa lakou i na mea haumia o na kii, a me ka moe kolohe, a me na mea umi wale ia, a me ke koko.
21For Moses from generations of old has in every city those who preach him, being read in the synagogues every Sabbath.”
21No ka mea, he poe no ko Mose, mai ka wa kahiko mai, ma na kulanakauhale a pau, nana e ao aku ma kana, na heluheluia no hoi kana maloko o na halehalawai, i na la Sabati a pau.
22Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole assembly, to choose men out of their company, and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas: Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas, chief men among the brothers.
22Alaila manao iho la na lunaolelo, a me ua lunakahiko, a me ka ekalesia a pau, he mea pono ke hoouna aku me Paulo laua o Barenaba, i mau kanaka i waeia, mailoko mai o lakou, i Anetioka, o Iuda i kapaia o Baresaba, a me Sila, he mau kanaka koikoi laua mawaena o na hoahanau.
23They wrote these things by their hand: “The apostles, the elders, and the brothers, to the brothers who are of the Gentiles in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia: greetings.
23Palapala aku la lakou, ma ko lakou lima, penei: Ke aloha aku nei na lunaolelo, a me na lunakahiko, a me na hoahanau, i na hoahanau o na lahuikanaka e ma Anetioka, a ma Suria, a ma Kilikia;
24Because we have heard that some who went out from us have troubled you with words, unsettling your souls, saying, ‘You must be circumcised and keep the law,’ to whom we gave no commandment;
24No ka mea, ua lohe makou i kekahi poe hele aku, mai o makou aku, ua hoohihia ia oukou i na olelo, me ka hoohuli e ana i ko oukou uhane, i ka i ana ae, E okipoepoeia oukou, a e malama i ke kanawai; aole makou i kauoha aku ia lakou pela.
25it seemed good to us, having come to one accord, to choose out men and send them to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
25I ko makou akoakoa lokahi ana, manao makou, he mea maikai ke hoouna aku ia oukou i kekahi mau kanaka i kohoia, i hele pu me ka makou mau mea i alohaia, me Barenaba lana o Paulo.
26men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
26Ua haawi ia mau kanaka i ko laua ola no ka inoa o ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo.
27We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who themselves will also tell you the same things by word of mouth.
27Nolaila, ua hoouna no hoi makou ia Iuda, laua me Sila, a na laua no e hai ana aku ma ka olelo i keia mau mea hookahi no.
28For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay no greater burden on you than these necessary things:
28No ka mea, ua manao ka Uhane Hemolele a me makou no hoi, aole e kau maluna o oukou, i kekahi mea kaumaha nui aku; o keia mau mea e pono ai wale no;
29that you abstain from things sacrificed to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality, from which if you keep yourselves, it will be well with you. Farewell.”
29E hookaaokoa i ka io i mohaiia no na kii, a me ke koko, a me na mea i umi wale ia, a mo ka moe kolohe. Ina e pili ole oukou ia mau mea, ua hana maikai oukou. Aloha oukou.
30So, when they were sent off, they came to Antioch. Having gathered the multitude together, they delivered the letter.
30A kuuia mai la lakou, hele lakou i Anetioka; a hoakoakoa iho la lakou i ka ahakanaka, haawi aku la lakou i ua palapala la.
31When they had read it, they rejoiced over the encouragement.
31A i ko lakou heluhelu ana, olioli lakou no ka olelo hoolana.
32Judas and Silas, also being prophets themselves, encouraged the brothers with many words and strengthened them.
32He mau kaula no hoi o Iuda laua me Sila, a hooikaika aku la iaua i na hoahanau, me na olelo he nui loa, a hookupaa iho la ia lakou.
33After they had spent some time there, they were dismissed in peace from the brothers to the apostles.
33Noho iho la lakou i kokahi wa, kuu maikai ia'ku la lakou, mai na hoahanau aku, i hele aku i na lunaolelo.
no verse 34 in this text
34Ua maikai no hoi i ko Sila manao e noho malaila.
35But Paul and Barnabas stayed in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
35A o Paulo laua o Barenaba, a me kekahi poe nui e ae, noho no lakou ma Anetioka, o ao ana, a e hai ana i ka olelo a ka Haku.
36After some days Paul said to Barnabas, “Let’s return now and visit our brothers in every city in which we proclaimed the word of the Lord, to see how they are doing.”
36A hala kekahi mau la, i mai la o Paulo ia Barenaba, E hele hon kaua o ike i ko kaua mau hoahanau ma na kulanakauhale a pau a kaua i hai aku ai i ka olelo a ka Haku, pehea i noho la.
37Barnabas planned to take John, who was called Mark, with them also.
37Manao paa iho la o Barenaba, e lawe pu aku ia Ieane i kapaia o Mareko.
38But Paul didn’t think that it was a good idea to take with them someone who had withdrawn from them in Pamphylia, and didn’t go with them to do the work.
38Aole nae i makemake o Paulo, e lawe pu i ka mea i haalele mai ia laua ma Pamepulia, a hele pu ole akai me laua i ka hana.
39Then the contention grew so sharp that they separated from each other. Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus,
39Nolaila, hoopaapaa ikaika ae la laua, a hookaawale iho la kekahi I kekahi; lawe pu aku la o Barenaba ia Mareko, a holo aku la i Kupero.
40but Paul chose Silas and went out, being commended by the brothers to the grace of God.
40Koho aku la o Paulo ia Sila, a hele aku la, me ka haawiia i ka lokomaikai o ko Akua e na hoahanau.
41He went through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the assemblies.
41Hele aku la i Suria, a me Kilikia, e hookupaa aku ana i na ekalesia.
