Deuteronomy 6
1 And these [are] the commands, and the ordinances, and the judgments, as many as the Lord our God gave commandment to teach you to do so in the land on which ye enter to inherit it.
Na ko te whakahau tenei, ko nga tikanga me nga whakaritenga, i whakahaua mai e Ihowa, e to koutou Atua, kia whakaakona atu ki a koutou, hei mahi ma koutou ki te whenua e haere atu nei koutou ki reira ki te tango:
2 That ye may fear the Lord your God, keep ye all his ordinances, and his commandments, which I command thee to-day, thou, and thy sons, and thy sons' sons, all the days of thy life, that ye may live many days.
Kia wehi ai koe i a Ihowa, i tou Atua, kia puritia ai ana tikanga katoa, me ana whakahau e whakahaua nei e ahau ki a koe, e koe, e tau tama, e te tama hoki a tau tama, i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe; kia roa ai hoki ou ra.
3 Hear, therefore, O Israel, and observe to do them, that it may be well with thee, and that ye may be greatly multiplied, as the Lord God of thy fathers said that he would give thee a land flowing with milk and honey: and these [are] the ordinances, and the judgments, which the Lord commanded the children of Israel in the wilderness, when they had gone forth from the land of Egypt.
Na, whakarongo, e Iharaira, kia mahara hoki kia mahia enei mea, kia whiwhi ai koe ki te pai, kia nui rawa ai hoki koutou, kia pera ai me ta Ihowa, me ta te Atua o ou matua i korero ai ki a koe, ki te whenua e rerengia ana e te waiu, e te honi.
4 Hear, O Israel, The Lord our God is one Lord.
Whakarongo, e Iharaira: Ko Ihowa, ko to tatou Atua, he Ihowa kotahi:
5 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy mind, and with all thy soul, and all thy strength.
A me whakapau katoa tou ngakau, tou wairua, tou kaha ki te aroha ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua.
6 And these words, all that I command thee this day, shall be in thy heart and in thy soul.
Hei roto ano i tou ngakau enei kupu e whakahau atu nei ahau ki a koe i tenei ra;
7 And thou shalt teach them to thy children, and thou shalt speak of them sitting in the house, and walking by the way, and lying down, and rising up.
Whakaakona marietia atu hoki ki au tamariki, korerotia i a koe e noho ana i tou whare, i a koe e haere ana i te huarahi, i a koe e takoto ana, i tou aranga ake hoki.
8 And thou shalt fasten them for a sign upon thy hand, and it shall be immoveable before thine eyes.
Me here e koe hei tohu ki tou ringa, hei pare ano ena mea ki waenganui o ou kanohi.
9 And ye shall write them on the lintels of your houses and of your gates.
Tuhituhia ano hoki ki nga pou tatau o tou whare, ki ou tatau hoki.
10 And it shall come to pass when the Lord thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware to thy fathers, to Abraam, and to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and beautiful cities which thou didst not build,
A, a mua ake nei, ina kawea koe e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki te whenua i oati ai ia ki ou matua, ki a Aperahama, ki a Ihaka, ki a Hakopa, a ka homai e ia ki a koe he pa nunui, papai, kihai nei i hanga e koe,
11 houses full of all good things which thou didst not fill, wells dug in the rock which thou didst not dig, vineyards and oliveyards which thou didst not plant, then having eaten and been filled,
He whare ki tonu i nga mea papai katoa, kihai nei i whakakiia e koe, he poka wai oti rawa te keri, kihai i keria e koe, he mara waina, he oriwa, kihai nei i whakatokia e koe: a ka kai koe, ka makona;
12 beware lest thou forget the Lord thy God that brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
Kia tupato ki a koe i reira, kei wareware ki a Ihowa, nana nei koe i whakaputa mai i te whenua o Ihipa, i te whare pononga.
13 Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve; and thou shalt cleave to him, and by his name thou shalt swear.
Ko Ihowa, ko tou Atua tau e wehi ai, me mahi ano hoki ki a ia, ko tona ingoa hoki hei oatitanga mau.
14 Go ye not after other gods of the gods of the nations round about you;
Kei whai ki nga atua ke, o nga atua o nga tauiwi i tetahi taha o koutou, i tetahi taha;
15 for the Lord thy God in the midst of thee [is] a jealous God, lest the Lord thy God be very angry with thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth.
He Atua hae hoki a Ihowa, tou Atua i waenganui i a koe; kei mura te riri o Ihowa, o tou Atua ki a koe, a ka ngaro koe i te mata o te whenua.
16 Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God, as ye tempted him in the temptation.
Kei whakamatautau i a Ihowa, i to koutou Atua, me koutou ra i whakamatautau i a ia i Meha.
17 Thou shalt by all means keep the commands of the Lord thy God, the testimonies, and the ordinances, which he commanded thee.
Puritia mareitia nga whakahau a Ihowa, a to koutou Atua, me ana whakaatu, me ana tikanga, i whakahaua mai nei e ia ki a koe.
18 And thou shalt do that which is pleasing and good before the Lord thy God, that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and inherit the good land, which the Lord sware to your fathers,
Mahia hoki te mea tika, te mea pai ki te aroaro o Ihowa; kia whiwhi ai koe ki te pai, kia tae atu ai, kia noho ai ki te whenua pai i oatitia e Ihowa ki ou matua,
19 to chase all thine enemies from before thy face, as the Lord said.
Kia peia ai ou hoariri katoa i tou aroaro, kia rite ai ki ta Ihowa i ki ai.
20 And it shall come to pass when thy son shall ask thee at a future time, saying, What are the testimonies, and the ordinances, and the judgments, which the Lord our God has commanded us?
A ki te ui tau tama ki a koe a mua, ki te mea, Hei aha nga whakaatu, me nga tikanga, me nga whakaritenga, i whakahaua mai nei e Ihowa, e to tatou Atua, ki a koutou?
21 Then shalt thou say to thy son, We were slaves to Pharao in the land of Egypt, and the Lord brought us forth thence with a mighty hand, and with a high arm.
Na ka mea atu koe ki tau tama, He pononga matou na Parao i Ihipa; a he kaha te ringa i whakaputaina mai ai matou e Ihowa i Ihipa:
22 And the Lord wrought signs and great and grievous wonders in Egypt, on Pharao and on his house before us.
A whakakitea mai ana e Ihowa he tohu, he merekara, he nui, he nanakia ki Ihipa, ki a Parao, ki tona whare katoa, me te titiro ano matou;
23 And he brought us out thence to give us this land, which he sware to give to our fathers.
A whakaputaina mai ana matou e ia i reira, kia kawea mai ai matou, kia homai ai e ia te whenua i oati ai ia ki o tatou matua.
24 And the Lord charged us to observe all these ordinances; to fear the Lord our God, that it may be well with us for ever, that we may live, as even to-day.
A whakahaua ana tatou e Ihowa kia mahia enei tikanga katoa, kia wehi i a Ihowa, i to tatou Atua, hei pai mo tatou i nga ra katoa, kia whakaorangia ai tatou e ia, kia penei ai i tenei inaianei.
25 And there shall be mercy to us, if we take heed to keep all these commands before the Lord our God, as he has commanded us.
A hei tika mo tatou ki te mau te mahi i enei whakahau katoa ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o to tatou Atua, ki te pera me tana i whakahau ai ki a tatou.
