Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming on you.
1E HELE oukou, e ka poe waiwai, e uwe oukou me ka aoa aku no na ehaeha e kau mai ana maluna o oukou.
2Your riches are corrupted and your garments are moth-eaten.
2Ua popopo ko oukou waiwai, ua pau hoi ko oukou kapa aahu i ka mu.
3Your gold and your silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be for a testimony against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up your treasure in the last days.
3Ua aiia e ka popo ko oukou gula, a me ko oukou kala; he hoike ka popo o ia mau mea no oukou, a e ai aku i ko oukou io me he ahi la. Ua hoiliili oukou no na la mahope.
4Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you have kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Armies.
4Aia hoi, o ka uku o ka poe hana nana i hoiliili ai ma ka oukou mau mahinaai i paa hewa ia oukou, ke kahea aku nei ia; a o ke kahea ana o ka poe hoiliili, komo ae la ia iloko o na pepeiao o ka Haku Sabaota.
5You have lived in luxury on the earth, and taken your pleasure. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter.
5Ua noho lealea oukou ma ka honua me ke kuulala loa: ua kupalu oukou i ko oukou naau no ka la e make ai.
6You have condemned and you have murdered the righteous one. He doesn’t resist you.
6Ua hoohewa oukou me ka pepehi aku hoi i ka mea pono; aole oia i pale aku ia oukou.
7Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receives the early and late rain.
7I nui ke aho, e na hoahanau, a hiki mai ka Haku. Eia hoi, ke kakali nei ka mahiai i ka hua ohaha o ka honua, e hoomanawanui ana ma ia mea a hiki mai ke kuaua mua a me ke kuaua hope.
8You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
8E ahonui no hoi oukou, e hooikaika i ko oukou naau; no ka mea, ua kokoke mai ka hiki ana mai o ka Haku.
9Don’t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you won’t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.
9E na hoahanau, mai ohumu aku kekahi i kekahi, o hoohewaia mai oukou. Eia hoi, ke ku mai nei ka lunakanawai ma ka puka.
10Take, brothers, for an example of suffering and of perseverance, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
10E na hoahanau o'u, e hoomanao oukou i ka poe kaula i olelo mai ai ma ka inoa o ka Haku, ia lakou no ka hoomaewaewaia, a me ke ahonui.
11Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and have seen the Lord in the outcome, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
11Aia hoi, ke kapa nei kakou i ka poe hoomanawanui, he pomaikai. Ua lohe oukou i ka hoomanawanui ana o Ioba, a ua ike oukou i ka ka Haku hope; ua lokomaikai nui ka Haku me ke aloha mai.
12But above all things, my brothers, don’t swear—not by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your “yes” be “yes”, and your “no”, “no”, so that you don’t fall into hypocrisy.
12He oiaio hoi, e na hoahanau o'u, mai hoohiki ino iki, aole i ka lani, aole i ka honua, aole hoi ma na hoohiki e ae: aka, e hoolilo i ko oukou ae i ae io, a me ko oukou hoole, i ole io; o haule oukou i ka hoohewaia mai.
13Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises.
13I ehaeha anei kekahi o oukou? e pule oia; a i hauoli anei kekahi? e himeni aku ia.
14Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;
14Ina he mai ko kekahi o oukou, e kii aku oia i ka poe lunakahiko o ka ekalesia; a e pule lakou maluna ona, me ka hamo ana ia ia i ka aila ma ka inoa o ka Haku,
15and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
15A o ka pule o ka mauaoio, e hoola no ia i ka mea mai, a na ka Haku e hoala mai ia ia; a ina i hana hewa oia, e kalaia mai ia.
16Confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.
16E hai aku i ko oukou mau hewa kekahi i kekahi, a e pule hoi kekahi no kekahi, i pohala ai oukou. O ka pule ikaika a ke kanaka pono e lanakila nui ia.
17Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain, and it didn’t rain on the earth for three years and six months.
17He kanaka no o Elia, ua like kona ano me ko kakou, a pule ikaika aku ia, i ua ole mai; aole loa i ua mai ma ka honua i na makahiki ekolu a me na malama keu eono.
18He prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.
18A pule hou aku ia, a haawi mai no ka lani i ka ua, a hooulu mai ka honua i kona hua.
19Brothers, if any among you wanders from the truth and someone turns him back,
19E na hoahanau, ina e hele hewa kekahi o oukou, mai ka oiaio ae, a e hoohuli mai kekahi ia ia;
20let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.
20E ike pono oia, o ka mea e hoohuli mai ana i ka mea hewa, mai kona hele hewa ana mai, nana no i hoopakele ae ka uhane i ka make, a nana hoi i hooki i ka hewa he nui loa.
