Luka 2
1 EIA kekahi mea ia mau la, hoolahaia'e la ke kauoha a Kaisara Augusato, e kakauia i ka palapala ko ke aupuni a pau.
About that time an edict was issued by the Emperor Augustus that a census should be taken of the whole Empire.
2 I ke alii kiaaina ana o Kurenio ma Suria, ka hoomaka ana o keia kakau mua ana.
(This was the first census taken while Quirinius was Governor of Syria).
3 Pau no i ka hele i kakauia'i i ka palapala o kela mea keia mea i kona kulanakauhale iho.
And everyone went to his own town to be registered.
4 O Iosepa kekahi i pii ae, mai Galilaia ae, mailoko mai o Nazareta ke kulanakauhale a hiki i Iudea, i ko Davida kulanakauhale i kapaia o Betelehema, (no ka mea, no ka hale ia a me ka ohaua a Davida, )
Among others Joseph went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Bethlehem, the town of David, in Judea – because he belonged to the family and house of David –
5 I kakauia'i me Maria ka wahine i hoopalauia nana, e koko ana.
to be registered with Mary, his engaged wife, who was about to become a mother.
6 A oiai laua malaila, hiki kona manawa e hanau ai.
While they were there her time came,
7 Hanau iho la oia i kana makahiapo kane; wahi iho la ia ia i ke kapa keiki, a hoomoe iho la ia ia ma kahi hanai holoholona, no ka mea, aole wahi kaawale no lakou maloko o ka hale hookipa.
and she gave birth to her first child, a son. And because there was no room for them in the inn, she swathed him around and laid him in a manger.
8 Aia i kela aina he mau kahuhipa e noho ana i ke kula, a e kiai ana i ka lakou mau poe hipa i ka po.
In that same countryside were shepherds out in the open fields, watching their flocks that night,
9 Aia hoi! Kau mai la ka anela o ka Haku io lakou la, a hoomalamalama mai la ka nani o ka Haku ia lakou a puni, a makau loa iho la lakou.
when an angel of the Lord suddenly stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were seized with fear.
10 A olelo mai la ka anela ia lakou, Mai makau oukou, no ka mea, eia hoi, ke hai aku nei au ia oukou i ka mea maikai, e olioli nui ai e lilo ana no na kanaka a pau.
“Have no fear,” the angel said. “For I bring you good news of a great joy in store for all the nation.
11 No ka mea, i keia la i hanau ai, ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida, he Ola no oukou, oia ka Mesia ka Haku.
This day there has been born to you, in the town of David, a Savior, who is Christ and Lord.
12 Eia hoi ka hoailona no oukou, e loaa auanei ia oukou ke keiki ua wahiia i ke kapa keiki, e moe ana ma kahi hanai holoholona.
And this will be the sign for you. You will find the infant swathed, and lying in a manger.”
13 A emo ole mai la ka lehulehu o ka puali o ka lani me ua anela la, e hoolea ana i ke Akua, e olelo ana,
Then suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly Host, praising God, and singing –
14 E hoonaniia ke Akua ma na lani kiekie loa, a he malu hoi ma ka honua; he aloha no i kauaka.
“glory to God on high, and on earth peace among those in whom he finds pleasure.”
15 Eia hoi kekahi, a hoi aku la na anela i ka lani, mai o lakou aku, olelo iho la ua mau kanaka kiai hipa la kekahi i kekahi, Ea, e haele kakou i Betelehema e'ike aku hoi ia mea a ka Haku i hoike mai nei ia kakou.
Now, when the angels had left them and gone back to heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let us go at once to Bethlehem, and see this thing that has happened, of which the Lord has told us.”
16 Haele wikiwiki lakou, a ike iho la ia Maria, a me Iosepa, a me ke keiki, e moe ana ia ma kahi hanai holoholona.
So they went quickly, and found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in a manger;
17 A ike lakou, hoolaha aku la lakou i ka olelo i haiia mai ia lakou no ia keiki.
and, when they saw it, they told of all that had been said to them about this child.
18 A o ka poe i lohe a pau, mahalo iho la lakou no na mea i haiia ku ia lakou e ka poe kahuhipa.
All who heard the shepherds were astonished at their story,
19 Kaohi iho la o Maria ia mau mea a pau me ka hoomanao iho iloko o kona naau.
while Mary treasured in her heart all that they said, and thought about it often.
20 A hoi mai la na kahuhipa, me ka hoonani a me ka hoolea i ke Akua no ia mau mea a pau a lakou i lohe ai a i ike ai hoi, e like me ka mea i haiia mai ia lakou.
And the shepherds went back, giving glory and praise to God for all that they had heard and seen. It had all happened as they had been told.
21 A hala na la ewalu i okipoepoeia'i ua keiki la, kapaia kona inoa o IESU, o ka ka anela hoi i kapa ai mamua i kona hapaiia iloko o ka opu.
Eight days after the birth of the child, when it was time to circumcise him, he received the name Jesus – the name given him by the angel before his conception.
22 A pau na la o ko laua hoomaemae ana mamuli o ke kanawai o Mose, lawe ae la lakou ia keiki i Ierusalema e haawi ia ia i ka Haku:
When the period of purification of mother and child, required by the Law of Moses, came to an end, his parents took the child up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord,
23 (E like me ka mea i kakauia ma ke kanawai o ka Haku, o kela makahiapo kane, keia makahiapo kane, e iia'e he laa no Iehova; )
in compliance with the Law of the Lord that every firstborn male will be dedicated to the Lord,
24 A e haawi hoi i ka mohai i kauohaia mai ma ke kanawai o Iehova, he mau kuhukuku elua, a i ole ia, elua manu nunu opiopio.
and also to offer the sacrifice required by the Law of the Lord – a pair of turtle-doves or two young pigeons.
25 Aia hoi, ma Ierusalema kekahi kanaka, o Simeona kona inoa; a he kanaka pono ia, he haipule, e kali ana i ka mea nana e kokua i ka Iseraela; aia maluna ona ka Uhane Hemolele.
There was at that time in Jerusalem a man named Simeon, a righteous and devout man, who lived in constant expectation of Israel’s consulation, and under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
26 A ua hoike e ia mai ia ia e ka Uhane Hemolele, aole ia e make e, a ike aku ia i ka Mesia a ka Haku.
It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not die until he had seen the Lord’s Christ.
27 A hele ae la hoi ia mamuli o ka Uhane iloko o ka luakini; a lawe ae la na makua i ke keiki ia Iesu iloko, e hana aku ai nona mamuli o ka oihana o ke kanawai;
Moved by the Spirit, Simeon came into the Temple Courts, and, when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him what was customary under the Law,
28 Alaila lawe oia ia ia ma kona mau lima, a hoomaikai aku la i ke Akua, i aku la hoi,
Simeon himself took the child in his arms, and blessed God, and said:
29 Ano, e ka Haku, ke kuu nei oe i kau kauwa nei me ka pomaikai e like me kau olelo.
“Now, Lord, you will let your servant go, according to your word, in peace,
30 No ka mea, ua ike iho nei ko'u mau maka i kau Hoola,
for my eyes have seen the salvation
31 Ka mea au i hoomakaukau ai imua o ke alo o na kanaka a pau;
which you have prepared in the sight of all nations –
32 He malamalama e hoomalamalama ai i na lahuikanaka, a he nani no kou poe kanaka ka Iseraela.
a light to bring light to the Gentiles, and to be the glory of your people Israel.”
33 Mahalo iho la o Iosepa a me kona makuwahine ia mau mea i oleloia mai ai nona.
While the child’s father and mother were wondering at what was said about him,
34 A hoomaikai mai la o Simeona ia laua, i mai la hoi oia ia Maria i kona makuwahine, Eia hoi, ua hoonohonohoia mai oia nei i mea e haule ai, a e ala hou ai na mea he nui iwaena o ka Iseraela, a i hoailona hoi o hoinoia'i;
Simeon gave them his blessing, and said to Mary, the child’s mother, “This child is appointed to be the cause of the fall and rise of many in Israel, and to be a sign much spoken against –
35 (A e houia no hoi kou uhane e ka pahikaua; ) i hoikeia'i na manao o na naau he lehulehu.
Yes, the sword will pierce your own heart – and so the thoughts in many minds will be disclosed.”
36 Malaila hoi kekahi kaula wahine, o Ana, ke kaikamahine a Panuela, na ka ohana a Asera; he kahiko no ia, a ehiku makahiki ona i noho pu ai me ke kane, mai kona wa puupaa mai.
There was also a prophet named Hannah, a daughter of Phanuel and of the tribe of Asher. She was far advanced in years, having lived with her husband for seven years after marriage,
37 A he wahine kanemake ia, he kanawalukumamaha makahiki ona, aole hoi ia i haalele i ka luakini, aka, ua malama mau oia i ke Akua me ka hoopololi a me ka pule, i ka po a me ke ao.
and then a widow, until she had reached the age of eighty-four. She never left the Temple Courts, but, fasting and praying, worshiped God night and day.
38 A komo mai la oia ia manawa, hoomaikai aku la i ka Haku, a olelo mai la ia no ua keiki la i ka poe a pau e kali ana i ke ola ma Ierusalema.
At that moment she came up, and began publicly to thank God and to speak about the child to all who were looking for the deliverance of Jerusalem.
39 A pau ae la i ka hanaia na mea i kauohaia ma ke kanawai o ka Haku, hoi ae la lakou i Galilaia, i ko lakou kulanakauhale i Nazareta.
When the child’s parents had done everything required by the Law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee to their own town of Nazareth.
40 A nui ae la ua keiki la, a ikaika ae la hoi kona manao, a piha i ka naauao, a maluna ona ke aloha o ke Akua.
The child grew and became strong and wise, and the blessing of God was on him.
41 Hele na makua ona i Ierusalema i kela makahiki i keia makahiki i ka ahaaina moliaola.
Every year the child’s parents used to go to Jerusalem at the Passover Festival.
42 A i ka umikumamalua o kona mau makahiki, pii ae la lakou i Ierusalema mamuli o ka oihana o ka ahaaina.
When Jesus was twelve years old, they went according to custom to Jerusalem,
43 A pau ia mau la, hoi ae la laua, noho iho la ke keiki o Iesu, ma Ierusalema, aole hoi i ike o Iosepa a me kona makuwahine.
and had finished their visit; but, when they started to return, the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem, without their knowing it.
44 Manao no laua, aia no ia maloko o ka huakai, hele no laua i ko kekahi la hele ana; a imi iho la laua ia ia mawaena o na hoahanau a me ua hoalauna.
Thinking that he was with their fellow travelers, they went one day’s journey before searching for him among their relatives and acquaintances;
45 Aole oia i loaa ia laua, hoi hou ae la laua i Ierusalema, e imi ana ia ia.
and then, as they did not find him, they returned to Jerusalem, searching everywhere for him.
46 Eia kekahi, a hala na la ekolu, ike aku la laua ia ia iloko o ka luakini e noho ana mawaena o ka poe kumu, e hoolohe ana ia lakou, a e ninau ana hoi ia lakou.
It was not until the third day that they found him in the Temple Courts, sitting among the teachers, now listening to them, now asking them questions.
47 A o ka poe a pau i lohe ia ia, mahalo iho la i kona naauao a me kana olelo ana.
All who listened to him marveled at his intelligence and his answers.
48 A ike laua ia ia, pihoihoi iho la; a i aku la kona makuwahine ia ia, E ka'u keiki, no ke aha la oe i hana mai ai pela ia maua? Ea, ua imi ae nei maua me kou makuakane ia oe, me ke kaumaha.
His parents were amazed when they saw him, and his mother said to him, “My child, why have you treated us like this? Your father and I have been searching for you in great distress.”
49 I mai la kela ia laua, No ke aha la olua i imi mai nei ia'u? Aole anei olua i manao he pono nu'u e lilo ma ka ko'u Makua?
“What made you search for me?” he answered. “Didn’t you know that I must be in my Father’s house?”
50 Aole laua i ike i ke ano o kana mea i olelo mai ai ia laua.
His parents did not understand what he meant.
51 A iho ae la ia me laua a hiki i Nazareta, a noho ia malalo iho o laua: a malama iho la kona makuwahine ia mau mea a pau ma kona naau.
However he went down with them to Nazareth, and submitted himself to their control; and his mother treasured all that was said in her heart.
52 A nui ae la ka naauao, a me ke kino o Iesu, a me ke alohaia e ke Akua a me na kanaka.
And Jesus grew in wisdom as he grew in years, and gained the blessing of God and people.
