Galatia 1
1 O PAULO, he lunaolelo, aole na kanaka mai, aole hoi ma ko kanaka, aka, ma o Iesu Kristo la, a ma ke Akua ka Makua nana ia i hoala'e mai ka make mai;
Paul, an apostle—not an apostle from men nor by human agency, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead—
2 O ka poe hoahanau no hoi me au, na na ekalesia o Galatia:
and all the brothers with me, to the churches of Galatia:
3 E alohaia oukou, e maluhia hoi i ke Akua ka Makua, a i ko kakou Haku ia Iesu Kristo,
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,
4 Nana i haawi mai ia ia iho no ko kakou hala, i hoopakele ae oia ia kakou i keia ao ino nei, e like me ka makemake o ke Akua, ko kakou Makua; (aiōn g165)
who gave himself for our sins so that he might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, (aiōn g165)
to him be the glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
6 Ua kahaha iho no wau i ka emoole o ko oukou haalele ana mai i ka mea i kono aku ia oukou iloko o ka euanelio a Kristo, a lilo i ka euanelio okoa:
I am amazed that you are turning away so quickly from him who called you by the grace of Christ. I am amazed that you are turning to a different gospel.
7 Aole hoi ho euanelio okoa ia; aka, ke hoohihia nei kekahi poe ia oukou, me ka mauao e hookahuli i ka euanelio a Kristo.
This is not to say that there is another gospel, but there are some men who cause you trouble and want to change the gospel of Christ.
8 Ina paha o makou, a he anela paha mai ka lani mai, e hai aku i ka euanelio i ku e i ka makou i hai aku ai ia oukou, e hoomainoinoia oia.
But even if we or an angel from heaven should proclaim to you a gospel other than the one we proclaimed to you, let him be cursed.
9 Me ka makou i olelo ai mamua, pela hoi au e olelo hou aku nei, a i hai aku kekahi ia oukou i ka olelo ku e i ka mea a oukou i loaa'i, e hoomainoinoia oia.
As we have said before, so now I say again, “If someone proclaims to you a gospel other than the one you received, let him be cursed.”
10 Ke hoolaulea nei anei au i kanaka, a i ke Akua anei? Ke imi nei anei hoi au e hoolealea i kanaka? no ka mea, a i hoolealea aku au i kanaka, aole au he kauwa na Kristo.
For am I now seeking the approval of men or God? Am I seeking to please men? If I am still trying to please men, I am not a servant of Christ.
11 Ke hoike aku nei au ia oukou, e na hoahanau, o ka euanelio a'u i hai aku ai, aole ia ma ka ke kanaka.
For I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel I proclaimed is not man's gospel.
12 No ka mea, aole i loaa ia'u ia na ke kanaka mai, aole hoi au i aoia mai, aka, ma ka hoikeia mai no e Iesu Kristo.
I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it. Instead, it was by revelation of Jesus Christ to me.
13 Ua lohe oukou i kuu noho ana mamua ma ko ka Iudaio manao, he nui loa kuu hoomaau ana'ku i ka ekalesia o ke Akua, me ka luku aku.
You have heard about my former life in Judaism, how I was persecuting the church of God beyond measure and that I was trying to destroy it.
14 Ua oi aku au ma ko ka Iudaio manao, mamua o ka nui o ka poe hoahanauna o'u, a he nui loa ko'u ikaika ma na mooolelo a o'u mau kupuna.
I advanced in Judaism beyond many of those who were my own age, from out of my own people. That is how extremely zealous I was for the traditions of my fathers.
15 I ka manawa i manao ai ke Akua nana au i hookaawale ae mai ka opu mai o ko'u makuwahine, a koho mai la ia'u ma kona lokomaikai,
But when God, who had set me apart from my mother's womb, and who called me through his grace,
16 E hoike mai i kana Keiki ia'u, i hai aku ai au ia ia i na kanaka e; wikiwiki iho la au, aole au i kuka me ka mea io a me ka mea koko;
was pleased to reveal his Son in me, so that I would proclaim him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately consult with flesh and blood.
17 Aole hoi au i pii aku i Ierusalema, i ka poe lunaolelo mamua o'u: aka, hele aku la au i Arabia, a hoi hou mai la i Damaseko.
I did not go up to Jerusalem to those who had become apostles before me. Instead, I went to Arabia and then returned to Damascus.
18 A hala na makahiki ekolu, pii aku la au i Ierusalema e ike ia Petero a noho pu iho la au me ia i na la he umikumamalima.
Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to get to know Cephas and I stayed with him fifteen days.
19 O Iakobo hoi ka hoahanau o ka Haku ka'u i ike, aole ka lunaolelo e ae.
But I saw none of the other apostles except James, the Lord's brother.
20 Aia hoi, imua o ke Akua, aole o'u hoopunipuni i na mea a'u e palapala aku nei ia oukou.
In what I write to you, I assure you before God, that I am not lying.
21 Ma ia hope mai, hele aku la au i na moku o Suria a me Kilikia;
Then I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
22 A ua ike maka ole ia au e na ekalesia o Kristo ma Iudea.
I was still not personally known to the churches of Judea that are in Christ.
23 He lohe wale no ko lakou, O ka mea nana kakou i hoomaau mai mamua, i neia manawa ke hai aku la ia i ka manao oiaio ana i hoino ai mamua.
They only heard it being said, “The man who once persecuted us is now proclaiming the faith he once tried to destroy.”
24 A hoonani aku la lakou i ke Akua no'u.
So they glorified God because of me.
