Luke 15
1 Now all the tax collectors and sinners were coming close to him to hear him.
A LAILA hele aku la io na la ka poe lunaauhau a pau, a me ka poe hewa e hoolohe ia ia.
2 The Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, “This man welcomes sinners, and eats with them.”
A ohumu iho la ka poe Parisaio a me ka poe kakauolelo, i ae la, Ua hoolauna oia nei me ka poe hewa, a ua ai pu no hoi me lakou.
3 He told them this parable:
Olelo mai la oia i keia olelonane ia lakou, i mai la,
4 “Which of you men, if you had one hundred sheep and lost one of them, wouldn’t leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the one that was lost, until he found it?
Owai ke kanaka iwaena o oukou he poe hipa kana hookahi haneri, a nalowale kekahi o lakou, aole anei ia i waiho aku i na hipa he kanaiwakumamaiwa ma ka waonahele, a imi aku i ka mea i nalowale a loaa ia ia ia?
5 When he has found it, he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
A loaa, alaila e kau ia ia ma kona poohiwi me ka olioli?
6 When he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’
A hiki mai ia i ka hale, houlunlu oia i na hoaaloha a me na hoalauna, me ka olelo ia lakou, E hauoli pu mai me au; no ka mea, ua loaa ia'u kuu wahi hipa i nalowale.
7 I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance.
Ke olelo aku nei au ia oukou, ua oi aku ka olioli ma ka lani no ke kanaka hewa hookahi e mihi ana, mamua o na kanaka maikai he kanaiwakumamaiwa aole pono ia lakou ke mihi.
8 “Or what woman, if she had ten drachma coins, if she lost one drachma coin, wouldn’t light a lamp, sweep the house, and seek diligently until she found it?
A owai la hoi ka wahine he mau hapawalu kana he umi, a i nalowale kekahi, aole ia e kuni i ke kukui a kahili i ka hale, a imi ikaika a loaa ia ia ia?
9 When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost!’
A loaa, e houluulu no ia i na hoaaloha a me na hoalauna, a olelo aku, E hauoli pu mai me au; no ka mea, ua loaa ia'u ka hapawalu i nalowale.
10 Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting.”
Pela hoi, ke olelo aku nei au ia oukou, He olioli no imua o ke alo o ko ke Akua poe anela i ke kanaka hewa hookahi e mihi ana.
11 He said, “A certain man had two sons.
I mai la hoi ia, O kekahi kanaka elua ana keiki.
12 The younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of your property.’ So he divided his livelihood between them.
Olelo aku la ke kaikaina i kona makuakane, E ka makua, e haawi mai oe ia'u i ko'u puu o ka waiwai. A mahele iho la oia i ka waiwai no lana,
13 Not many days after, the younger son gathered all of this together and traveled into a far country. There he wasted his property with riotous living.
Aole nui na la mahope iho houluulu mai ke keiki pokii i kana a pau, hele aku la ia i ka aina loihi aku: a malaila ia i hoomaunauna aku ai i kana waiwai e noho uhauha ana.
14 When he had spent all of it, there arose a severe famine in that country, and he began to be in need.
A hoopau aku la oia i kana a pau, nui aku la ka wi o kela aina, a nele iho la ia.
15 He went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed pigs.
Hele ae la hoi ia a hoopili aku me kekahi kamaaina o ua aina la: a hoouna ae la oia ia ia i kona mau aina e hanai puaa.
16 He wanted to fill his belly with the pods that the pigs ate, but no one gave him any.
A e ake no ia e hoopiha i kona opu me na hua keratio a na puaa i ai ai, aole hoi mea nana i haawi ia ia.
17 But when he came to himself, he said, ‘How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough to spare, and I’m dying with hunger!
A loaa oia ia ia iho, i iho la ia. He nui ka poe paaua a ko'u makuakane, he ai ka lakou e maona ai a koe aku, a e make ana hoi au i ka pololi!
18 I will get up and go to my father, and will tell him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight.
E ku au a e hele aku i kuu makuakane, a e olelo aku au ia ia, E kuu makua, ua hana hewa aku wau i ka lani a ia oe;
19 I am no more worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired servants.”’
Aole au e pono ke kapa hou ia mai he keiki nau; e hoohalike mai oe ia'u me kekahi o kau poe paaua.
20 “He arose and came to his father. But while he was still far off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion, and ran, fell on his neck, and kissed him.
A en ae la ia a hele mai i kona makuakane: a ia ia i kahi loihi aku, ike aku la kona makuakane ia ia, hu ae la kona aloha, holo aku la ia, apo aku la i kona a-i, a honi aku la ia ia.
21 The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
I mai la ke keiki ia ia, E ka makua, ua hana hewa aku wau i ka lani, a ia oe, aole e pono ke kapa hou ia mai he keiki nau.
22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring out the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet.
Aka, i aku la ka makua i kana mau kauwa, E lawe mai i ka aahu maikai loa, a e hoaahu ae ia ia; a e hookomo i ke komolima ma kona lima, a me na kamaa ma kona mau wawae;
23 Bring the fattened calf, kill it, and let’s eat and celebrate;
A e lawe mai hoi i ke keiki bipi i kupaluia, e kalua; a e ai kakou me ka olioli;
24 for this, my son, was dead and is alive again. He was lost and is found.’ Then they began to celebrate.
No ka mea, ua make keia keiki a'u, a na ola hou mai nei; nalowale aku la hoi ia, a ua loaa mai net A ahaaina iho la lakou me ka olioli.
25 “Now his elder son was in the field. As he came near to the house, he heard music and dancing.
A o kana keiki hiapo, aia no ia ma ka waena; a i kona hele ana mai a kokoke i ka hale, lohe iho la ia i ka hula a me ka haa ana.
26 He called one of the servants to him and asked what was going on.
Kahea mai la ia i kekahi o ka poe kauwa, ninau mai la i ke ano o ia mau mea.
27 He said to him, ‘Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has received him back safe and healthy.’
Hai aku la hoi oia ia ia, Ua hiki mai kou kaikaina; a ua kalua iho nei kou makuakane i ke keiki bipi i kupaluia, no ka mea, ua loaa mai nei oia ia ia e ola ana.
28 But he was angry and would not go in. Therefore his father came out and begged him.
Huhu iho la ia, aole i makemako e komo iloko. Nolai la i hele aku ai kona makuakane iwaho, a nonoi aku ia ia.
29 But he answered his father, ‘Behold, these many years I have served you, and I never disobeyed a commandment of yours, but you never gave me a goat, that I might celebrate with my friends.
Olelo mai la ia i kona makuakane, Eia hoi, he nui no neia mau makahiki a'u i malama aku ai ia oe, aole hoi au i hoohala iki i kau olelo; aole loa hoi oe i haawi mai i wahi keiki kao na'u e ahaaina olioli pu ai au me ko'u mau honaloha;
30 But when this your son came, who has devoured your living with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.’
Aka hoi, i ka hoi ana mai o keia keiki au ka mea i hokai aku i kou waiwai me na wahine hookamakama, ua kalua koke no oe nana i ke keiki bipi i kupaluia.
31 “He said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours.
A i aku la oia ia ia, E ka'u keiki, ua noho mau oe me au, a o na mea a pau a'u, o kau no ia.
32 But it was appropriate to celebrate and be glad, for this, your brother, was dead, and is alive again. He was lost, and is found.’”
He mea pono no kakou e ahaaina olioli a me ka hauoli; no ka mea, o kou kaikaina nei, ua make no ia, a na ola hou mai nei; nalowale aku la ia, a ua loaa mai nei.
