Romans 11
1 I ask then, did God reject his people? May it never be! For I also am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
NO ia hoi, ke ninau aku nei au, Ua kiola anei ke Akua i kona poe kanaka ponoi? Aole loa; no ka mea, he mamo na Iseraela au, no na hua o Aberahama, no ka ohana hoi a Beniamina.
2 God didn’t reject his people, whom he foreknew. Or don’t you know what the Scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel:
Aole no ke Akua i kiola i kona poe kanaka ana i ike mua ai. Aole anei oukou i ike i ka ka palapala hemolele i hai mai ai ia Elia, ia ia i hoopii aku ai i ke Akua i ka Iseraela, i ka i ana,
3 “Lord, they have killed your prophets. They have broken down your altars. I am left alone, and they seek my life.”
E ka Haku, ua pepehi lakou i kau poe kaula, ua wawahi lakou i kou mau kuahu, owau wale no koe, a ke imi nei lakou e kaili i kuu ola?
4 But how does God answer him? “I have reserved for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”
A pehea mai ka ke Akua olelo ia ia? Ua hoana e au no'u i ehiku tausani kanaka aole i kukuli iho ia Baala.
5 Even so too at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
Pela hoi i keia manawa, ua koe mai kekahi poe ma ka wae ana o ka lokomaikai.
6 And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.
A ina ma ka lokomaikai, alaila aole ma na hana. A i ole pela, alaila o ka lokomaikai, aole ia he lokomaikai. Aka ina ma na hana, aole ma ka lokomaikai, a i ole pela, alaila, o ka hana aole ia he hana.
7 What then? That which Israel seeks for, that he didn’t obtain, but the chosen ones obtained it, and the rest were hardened.
Heaha hoi ilaila? Aole i loaa i ka Iseraela ka mea ana i imi aku ai; aka, ua loaa ae la i ka poe i waeia, a na hoomakapoia ka poe i koe;
8 According as it is written, “God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, to this very day.”
(E like me ka mea i palapalaia, Ua haawi mai ke Akua ia lakou i naau hiamoe, a me na maka ike ole, a me na pepeiao lohe ole, ) a hiki i keia la.
9 David says, “Let their table be made a snare, a trap, a stumbling block, and a retribution to them.
Olelo mai la hoi o Davida, E lilo ko lakou papaaina i pahele e hei ai lakou, i mea e hina ai hoi, a i uku hoi no lakou.
10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see. Always keep their backs bent.”
E hoopouliia ko lakou mau maka, i ole ai lakou e ike, a e hookulou mau ia ko lakou kua.
11 I ask then, did they stumble that they might fall? May it never be! But by their fall salvation has come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.
Ke ninau aku nei hoi an, Ua okupe anei lakou i hina loa ai? Aole loa: aka, o ko lakou hina ana, he mea ia e ola ai ko na aina e, i mea e hooikaika hou ai ia lakou.
12 Now if their fall is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles, how much more their fullness!
Ina hoi o ko lakou hina ana ka mea e waiwai ai ke ao nei, a o ko lakou kiolaia ka mea e waiwai ai ko na aina e, aole anei e nui aku ia ma ko lakou pomaikai hou ana?
13 For I speak to you who are Gentiles. Since then as I am an apostle to Gentiles, I glorify my ministry,
(No ka mea, ke olelo nei au ia oukou, e ko na aina e, no ka mea, he lunaolelo wau no na kanaka e, a ke hoomaikai nei au i kuu oihana;
14 if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh, and may save some of them.
I hooikaika ae au i ko'u poe hoahanau ma ke kino, a e hoola au i kekahi poe o lakou.)
15 For if the rejection of them is the reconciling of the world, what would their acceptance be, but life from the dead?
No ka mea, ina o ka hemo ana o lakou ka mea e hoomaluhia ai ke ao nei, heaha hoi ka loaa hou ana mai o lakou, aole anei ia o ke ola mai ka make mai?
16 If the first fruit is holy, so is the lump. If the root is holy, so are the branches.
A ina i laa ka hua mua, pela aku hoi ka popo palaoa; a ina i laa ke kumu, pela aku hoi na lala.
17 But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became partaker with them of the root and of the richness of the olive tree,
A ina i haihaiia kekahi mau lala, a o oe he oliva ulu wale, i pakuiia, ma ko lakou wahi, e loaa pu ana ia oe ko ke kumu, a me ka momona o ka oliva;
18 don’t boast over the branches. But if you boast, remember that it is not you who support the root, but the root supports you.
Mai hookiekie ae oe maluna o na lala: aka, ina hookiekie ae oe, aole e kau ke kumu maluna ou, aka, o oe maluna o ke kumu.
19 You will say then, “Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.”
Alaila e olelo no oe, Ua haihaiia na lala i pakuiia'ku ai au.
20 True; by their unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by your faith. Don’t be conceited, but fear;
Oia, ua haihaiia na lala no ka manaoio ole, a ma ka manaoio e ku nei oe. Mai hoonaaukiekie oe, e hopohopo nae:
21 for if God didn’t spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.
No ka mea, ina i hookoe ole ke Akua i na lala maoli, e ao o hookoe ole oia ia oe.
22 See then the goodness and severity of God. Toward those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness; otherwise you also will be cut off.
No ia mea, e nana oe i ka lokomaikai a me ka oolea o ke Akua: he oolea i ka poe i haule; aka, he lokomaikai no ia oe ke noho mau oe ma ka pono; a i ole, e okiia auanei oe.
23 They also, if they don’t continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
A o lakou nei hoi, i ole lakou e noho mau ma ka manaoio ole, e pnkui hou ia auanei lakou; no ka mea e hiki no i ke Akua ke pakui hou ia lakou.
24 For if you were cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more will these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
No ka mea, ina i okiia oe no luna mai o ka oliva ulu wale ma ke ano maoli, a ua pakuiia ma ka oliva maikai me ke ano e, aole anei e pakui io ia na lala maoli i ko lakou oliva ponoi?
25 For I don’t desire you to be ignorant, brothers, of this mystery, so that you won’t be wise in your own conceits, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in,
No ka mea, aole au makemake e ike ole oukou, e na hoahanau, i keia pohihihi, o akamai oukou i ko oukou manao; ua loaa ka moowini i kekahi poe o ka Iseraela a hiki i ka manawa e komo mai ai ka nui o ko na aina e.
26 and so all Israel will be saved. Even as it is written, “There will come out of Zion the Deliverer, and he will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
Alaila e hoolaia ka Iseraela a pau; e like me ka mea i palapalaia, Noloko mai o Ziona e puka mai ai ka hoola, a e pale aku ia i ka aia ana, mai o Iakoba aku:
27 This is my covenant with them, when I will take away their sins.”
A o keia ka'u berita me lakou i ka manawa e kala aku ai au i na hewa o lakou.
28 Concerning the Good News, they are enemies for your sake. But concerning the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sake.
No oukou hoi i lilo ai lakou i poe enemi, ma ka euanelio; aka, no na kupuna, he poe aloha, ma ka wae ana.
29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
No ka mea, o na haawina a me ke koho ana a ke Akua, me ka luli ole no ia.
30 For as you in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience,
Me oukou i hoolohe ole ai i ke Akua mamua, a i keia manawa ua loaa ia oukou ke alohaia mai, ma ko lakou hoolohe ole;
31 even so these also have now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they may also obtain mercy.
Pela hoi lakou i hoolohe ole ai i keia manawa, i loaa ia lakou ke alohaia ma ko oukou alohaia.
No ka mea, ua kuu iho ke Akua ia lakou a pau i ka manaoio ole, i aloha mai ai oia ia lakou. (eleēsē g1653)
33 Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!
Nani ka hohonu o ka waiwai a me ke akamai, a me ka ike o ke Akua! nani hoi ke kupanaha o kona mau manao, a me ka ike ole ia ku o kona mau aoao!
34 “For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?”
No ka mea, owai la ka mea i ike i ka naau o ka Haku? Owai aku la hoi kona hoakukakuka?
35 “Or who has first given to him, and it will be repaid to him again?”
Owai la hoi ka mea i haawi e aku ia ia e uku hou ia mai ai ia?
