Epeso 3
1 NO keia mea, he paahao wau o Paulo na Kristo Iesu, no oukou no ko na aina e;
For this cause, I Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you the nations,
2 No ka mea, ua lohe no oukou i ka oihana lokomaikai o ke Akua ana i haawi mai ai ia'u no oukou.
if, indeed, you heard of the dispensation of the grace of God that was given to me in regard to you,
3 Ma ka hoikeia i hoakaka mai ai oia iau i ka mea ikea ole; ka mea a'u i palapala pokolo aku ai mamua;
that by revelation He made known to me the secret, according as I wrote before in few [words]—
4 A heluhelu oukou, e ike auanei oukou ilaila i kuu ike ana i ka mea ikea ole no Kristo,
in regard to which you are able, reading [it], to understand my knowledge in the secret of the Christ,
5 I ka mea i hoike ole ia mai i na keiki a kanaka i na hanauna mamua, e like me ia i hoikeia mai e ka Uhane i neia manawa i kana poe lanaolelo hoano a me na kaula;
which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it was now revealed to His holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit—
6 I lilo ai na lahuikanaka e i poe hoahooilina, i kino hookahi, i poe hoalawe pu i ka olelo hoopomaikai no Kristo ma ka euanelio.
that the nations are fellow-heirs, and of the same body, and partakers of His promise in the Christ, through the good news,
7 No ia mea i hooliloia'e au i kahuna, ma ka haawina lokomaikai o ke Akua ana i haawi mai ai ia'u, ma ka ikaika o kona mana.
of which I became a servant, according to the gift of the grace of God that was given to me, according to the working of His power;
8 Ua haawiia mai keia lokomaikai ia'u, i ka mea uuku iho o na haipule uuku loa a pau, e hai aku ai au i na lahuikanaka e i ka waiwai kupanaha o Kristo;
to me—the less than the least of all the holy ones—was given this grace, among the nations to proclaim good news—the untraceable riches of the Christ,
9 A e hoike aku hoi i na kanaka a pau i ke ano o ka mea pohihihi i hunaia mai ke kumu mai iloko o ke Akua, nana i hana na mea a pau ma o Iesu Kristo la: (aiōn g165)
and to cause all to see what [is] the fellowship of the secret that has been hid from the ages in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ, (aiōn g165)
10 I hoikeia aku ai ma ka ekalesia i na alii a i na mea mana o ka lani, ka nui loa o ko ke Akua akamai,
that there might be made known now to the principalities and the authorities in the heavenly [places], through the Assembly, the manifold wisdom of God,
according to a purpose of the ages, which He made in Christ Jesus our Lord, (aiōn g165)
12 Ua loaa mai ia kakou ma ona la ka olelo wiwo ole, me ka hookipaia a me ka manaolana ma ka manaoio ia ia.
in whom we have the freedom and the access in confidence through the faith of Him,
13 Nolaila, ke noi aku nei au e pauaho ole oukou i kuu pilikia ana no oukou, o ka oukou ia e pomaikai ai.
for this reason, I ask [you] not to faint in my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
14 No keia mea, ke kukuli nei no au imua o ka Makua o ko kakou Haku o Iesu Kristo,
For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
15 Nona hoi i kapaia mai ka inoa o ka ohana a pau ma ka lani, a ma ka honua,
of whom the whole family in the heavens and on earth is named,
16 I haawi mai ai oia ia oukou, ma ka nui o kona mini, e hooikaika nui ia mai ke kanaka oloko e kona Uhane;
that He may give to you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened through His Spirit with might, in regard to the inner man,
17 I noho ai o Kristo iloko o ko oukou naau ma ka manaoio; i hoopaaia oukou i ke aa a i hookumuia ma ke aloha,
that the Christ may dwell through the faith in your hearts, having been rooted and founded in love,
18 I hiki ia oukou ke ike me na haipule a pau i ka laula, a me ka loa, a me ka hohonu, a me ke kiekie;
that you may be in strength to comprehend, with all the holy ones, what [is] the breadth, and length, and depth, and height,
19 I ike hoi oukou i ke aloha o Kristo, i ka mea e pakela ana i ka ike; i hoopihaia no hoi oukou i ka mea a pau a ke Akua i piha ai.
to know also the love of the Christ that is exceeding the knowledge, that you may be filled—to all the fullness of God;
20 A o ka mea nona ka mana e hana mai ai i na mea a pau a kakou e noi aku ai, a e manao iho ai, a nui loa aku hoi, ma ka mana e hooikaika ana iloko o kakou,
and to Him who is able to do exceedingly [and] abundantly above all things that we ask or think, according to the power that is working in us,
