Reading

First Letter of John 4: 7- 16

4:7 Aloha nui loa, e aloha kakou i kekahi i kekahi. No ke Akua ke aloha. A ʻo ka mea aloha, ua hānau ʻia lākou na ke Akua a ua ʻike i ke Akua.

4:8 ʻO ka mea aloha ʻole, aole ike i ke Akua. No ka mea, he aloha ke Akua.

4:9 Ua ʻike ʻia ke aloha o ke Akua iā mākou ma kēia ʻano: ua hoouna mai ke Akua i kana Keiki hiwahiwa i ke ao nei, i ola kakou ma ona la.

4:10 Aia i loko o kēia ke aloha: aole me he mea la ua aloha kakou i ke Akua, aka, ua aloha mua mai oia ia kakou, a pela hoi oia i hoouna mai ai i kana Keiki i kalahala no ko kakou hewa.

4:11 Aloha nui loa, ina ua aloha mai ke Akua ia kakou, he pono no hoi kakou ke aloha i kekahi i kekahi.

4:12 ʻAʻohe kanaka i ʻike i ke Akua. Aka, ina e aloha kakou kekahi i kekahi, Noho ke Akua iloko o kakou, a ua hemolele kona aloha iloko o kakou.

4:13 Ma keia ano, ua ike kakou ke noho nei kakou iloko ona, a ʻo ia i loko o kākou: no ka mea, ua haawi mai oia ia kakou na kona Uhane.

4:14 A ua ʻike mākou, a ke hoike aku nei makou, ua hoouna mai ka Makua i kana Keiki i mea e ola'i ko ke ao nei.

4:15 O ka mea i hooiaio o Iesu ke Keiki a ke Akua, Noho ke Akua iloko ona, a ʻo ia ma ke Akua.

4:16 A ua ʻike mākou a ua manaʻoʻiʻo i ke aloha o ke Akua iā mākou. He aloha ke Akua. A o ka mea e noho ana ma ke aloha, noho iloko o ke Akua, a ke Akua iloko ona.

Gospel

Luke 10: 38-42

10:38	Now it happened that, while they were traveling, he entered into a certain town. And a certain woman, named Martha, received him into her home.
10:39	And she had a sister, named Mary, ʻo wai, while sitting beside the Lord’s feet, was listening to his word.
10:40	Now Martha was continually busying herself with serving. And she stood still and said: “Lord, is it not a concern to you that my sister has left me to serve alone? No laila, speak to her, so that she may help me.”
10:41	And the Lord responded by saying to her: “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled over many things.
10:42	And yet only one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the best portion, and it shall not be taken away from her.”
