Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children.
1NO ia hoi, e hahai oukou i ke Akua, e like me na keiki punahele;
2Walk in love, even as Christ also loved us and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.
2E haele hoi oukou me ke aloha, e like me ka Kristo i aloha mai ai ia kakou, a haawi hoi ia ia iho no kakou, i alana a me ka mohai i ke Akua, i mea ala oluolu.
3But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints;
3A o ka moe kolohe, a me na mea haumia a pau, a me ka puniwaiwai, aole loa e hoohikiia ia mau mea iwaena o oukou, me ia o pono ai na haipule;
4nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not appropriate, but rather giving of thanks.
4Aole hoi ka olelo hilahila, ka olelo lapuwale, a me ka olelo ano lua, na mea pono ole: aka, o ka olelo hoomaikai ka pono.
5Know this for sure, that no sexually immoral person, nor unclean person, nor covetous man (who is an idolater), has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and God.
5No ka mea, ua ike oukou i keia, aole ka mea moe kolohe, aole hoi ka mea haumia, aole hoi ka mea puniwaiwai, oia hoi ka mea hoomana kii, aole loa o lakou noho ana i ke aupuni o Kristo a o ke Akua.
6Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.
6E ao o hoopunipuni mai kekahi ia oukou i na olelo wehahee: no keia mau mea e hiki mai ana ka inaina o ke Akua maluna o na keiki hoolohe ole.
7Therefore don’t be partakers with them.
7Nolaila, mai noho a hoohalike pu me lakou.
8For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,
8No ka mea, he poeleele ko oukou mamua, i neia manawa hoi ua malamalama oukou i ka Haku: e haele oukou me he kamalii no ka malamalama la:
9for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth,
9(No ka mea, o ka hua na ka Uhane, oia ka maikai a pau, a me ka pono a me ka oiaio:)
10proving what is well pleasing to the Lord.
10E hooiaio oukou i ka mea a ka Haku i oluolu ai.
11Have no fellowship with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather even reprove them.
11Mai hoolauna pu hoi oukou ma na bana hua ole o ka pouli, e hoohewa aku nae ia mau mea.
12For it is a shame even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.
12No ka mea, o na mea i hana malu ia e lakou, he mea hilahila ke olelo aku ia mau mea.
13But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, for everything that reveals is light.
13A o na mea a pau e pono ke hoohewaia aku, ua hoakakaia ma ka malamalama; o ka mea hoakaka aku, oia ka malamalama.
14Therefore he says, “Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
14No ka mea, ua oleloia, E ala'e oe, e ka mea hiamoe ana, e ku ae hoi mai ka make mai, na Kristo hoi oe e hoomalamalama mai.
15Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise,
15Nolaila, e nana oukou i hele pono e like me ka poe naauao, aole me ka poe naaupo,
16redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
16E malama pono ana i ka manawa; no ka mea, he mau la ino keia.
17Therefore, don’t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
17No ia mea, mai noho a naaupo oukou, aka, e hoomaopopo i ka makemake o ka Haku.
18Don’t be drunken with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,
18Mai noho oukou a ona i ka waina, nolaila mai ka uhauha; aka, e hoopihaia oukou i ka Uhane;
19speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs; singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
19E olelo ana kekahi i kekahi i na halelu, i na himeni, a me na mele na ka Uhane, e hoolea ana a e hookani ana i ka Haku, iloko o ko oukou naau;
20giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;
20No na mea a pau, e hoomaikai mau ana i ke Akua ka Makua, ma ka inoa o ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo:
21subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of Christ.
21E malama ana i kekahi i kekahi me ka makau i ke Akua.
22Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
22E na wahine, e noho malalo o na kane ponoi a oukou, e like me ka ka Haku.
23For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body.
23No ka mea, o ke kano ke poo o ka wahine, e like me Kristo ke poo o ka ekalesia: a oia hoi ke ola no ke kino.
24But as the assembly is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything.
24No ia mea, e like me ka ekalesia e noho ana malalo o Kristo, pela boi na wahine malalo o na kane ponoi a lakou ma na mea a pau.
25Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly and gave himself up for her,
25E na kane, aloha aku i ka oukou mau wahine, e like me Kristo i aloha mai ai i ka ekalesia, a haawi mai ia ia iho nona;
26that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,
26I hoolaa mai ai oia ia ia, hoomaemae ana ia ia i ka wai auau, a me ka olelo,
27that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without defect.
27I hoolilo mai ai oia ia ia nona iho i ekaiesia nani, nole ona wahi paumaele, aole hoi minomino, aole hoi kekahi mea like; aka, i hemolele ia a me ka hala ole.
28Even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself.
28Pela e pono ai na kane e aloha aku i ka lakou mau wahine, e like me ko lakou mau kino iho: o ka mea aloha i kana wahine, oia ke aloha ia ia iho.
29For no man ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord also does the assembly,
29No ka mea, aole loa kekahi i inaina i kona kino iho; aka, ua hanai no a me ka malama ia ia, e like me ka Haku i ka ekalesia:
30because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones.
30No ka mea, he mau lala kakou no kona kino, no kona io, a me kona iwi.
31“For this cause a man will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife. Then the two will become one flesh.”
31No ia hoi, e haalele ke kanaka i kona makuakane a me ka makuwahine, a e hoopiliia'ku ia i kana wahine, a e lilo laua elua i bookahi to.
32This mystery is great, but I speak concerning Christ and the assembly.
32He mea pohihibi nui keia; ke olelo aku nei au no Kristo a me ka ekalesia.
33Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
33Aka, e aloha aku kela mea keia mea o oukou a pau i kana wahine e like me ia ia iho: a o ka wahine, e hoomaikai aku ia i kana kane.
