< Deuteronomy 16 >

1 “Observe the month of new grain, at the beginning of springtime, so that you may accomplish the Passover to the Lord your God. For in this month, the Lord your God led you away from Egypt in the night.
Kia mahara ki te marama, ki a Apipi, ka mahi i te kapenga ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua: ko Apipi hoki te marama i whakaputaina mai ai koe e Ihowa, e tou Atua, i Ihipa i te po.
2 And you shall immolate the Passover to the Lord your God, from sheep and from oxen, in the place which the Lord your God will choose, so that his name may dwell there.
Na me patu e koe te kapenga ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, o te kahui hipi, o te kahui kau, ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa kia waiho tona ingoa ki reira.
3 You shall not eat it with leavened bread. For seven days you shall eat, without leaven, the bread of affliction. For you departed from Egypt in fear. So may you remember the day of your departure from Egypt, throughout all the days of your life.
Kaua e kainga tahitia te paraoa rewena me taua mea; kia whitu nga ra e kai ai koe i te taro rewenakore me taua mea, ara i te taro tangihanga; i haere potatutatu mai hoki koe i te whenua o Ihipa: kia mahara ai koe ki te ra i puta mai ai koe i te w henua o Ihipa i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe.
4 No leaven shall be present in all your confines for seven days. And by morning, there shall not remain any of the flesh which was immolated on the first day in the evening.
A kia whitu nga ra e kore ai e kitea he rewena ki a koe i ou rohe katoa; kaua hoki e whakatoea mo te ata tetahi wahi o te kikokiko e patua e koe i te ahiahi o te ra tuatahi.
5 You cannot immolate the Passover in any of your cities, which the Lord your God will give to you, that you wish,
E kore e ahei kia patua te kapenga i roto i tetahi o ou tatau, e homai ana e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe:
6 but only in the place which the Lord your God will choose, so that his name may dwell there. You shall immolate the Passover in the evening, upon the setting of the sun, which is the time when you departed from Egypt.
Engari hei te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa, tou Atua, kia waiho tona ingoa ki reira, hei reira koe patu ai i te kapenga i te ahiahi, i te toenetanga o te ra, i te wa ano i puta mai ai koe i Ihipa.
7 And you shall cook and eat it in the place which the Lord your God will choose, and, rising up in the morning, you shall go into your tent.
Na me tunu e koe, me kai hoki ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa, tou Atua: a i te ata ka tahuri, ka haere ki ou teneti.
8 For six days, you shall eat unleavened bread. And on the seventh day, because it is the assembly of the Lord your God, you shall do no work.
E ono nga ra e kai ai koe i te taro rawenakore: a i te ra whitu ko te huihui nui ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua: kaua tetahi mahi e mahia i taua ra.
9 You shall number for yourself seven weeks from that day, the day on which you put the sickle to the grain field.
Taua e koe, kia whitu nga wiki: kei tau tukunga mataati i te toronaihi ki te kotinga koe timata mai ai te tatau i nga wiki e whitu.
10 And you shall celebrate the Feast of Weeks, to the Lord your God, with a voluntary oblation from your hand, which you shall offer according to the blessing of the Lord your God.
Na me mahi te hakari o nga wiki ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, ki tetahi tahua, he mea hoatu noa na tou ringa; kia rite tau e hoatu ai ki te manaaki a Ihowa, a tou Atua, i a koe:
11 And you shall feast in the sight of the Lord your God: you, your son and your daughter, your man servant and your woman servant, and the Levite who is within your gates, and the new arrival as well as the orphan and the widow, who abide with you, in the place which the Lord your God will choose, so that his name may dwell there.
Na ka koa koe ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua, a koe, koutou tahi ko tau tama, ko tau tamahine, me tau pononga tane, me tau pononga wahine, me te Riwaiti i roto i ou tatau, me te manene, me te pani, me te pouaru i roto i a koe, ki te wahi i whi riwhiria e Ihowa, e tou Atua, kia waiho tona ingoa ki reira.
12 And you shall recall that you were a servant in Egypt. And you shall preserve and carry out the things that have been instructed.
A kia mahara koe he pononga koe i Ihipa i mua: me pupuri hoki, me mahi enei tikanga.
13 Likewise, you shall celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days, when you will have gathered your fruits from the orchard and the winepress.
Me mahi te hakari whare wharau, kia whitu nga ra, ua poto i a koe te kohikohi mai i tau patunga witi me tau poka waina:
14 And you shall feast at the time of your festival: you, your son and daughter, your man servant and woman servant, likewise the Levite and the new arrival, the orphan and the widow, who are within your gates.
A ka koa koe ki tau hakari, a koe, koutou tahi ko tau tama, ko tau tamahine, ko tau pononga tane, ko tau pononga wahine, me te Riwaiti, te manene, te pani me te pouaru i roto i ou tatau.
15 For seven days you shall celebrate feasts to the Lord your God in the place which the Lord will choose. And the Lord your God will bless you in all your crops, and in every work of your hands. And you shall be joyful.
Kia whitu nga ra o tau hakari ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, i te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa: ka manaaki hoki a Ihowa, tou Atua, i a koe i au hua katoa, i nga mahi katoa hoki a ou ringa, a ka tino harakoa koe.
16 Three times a year, all your males shall appear in the sight the Lord your God in the place which he will choose: at the Feast of Unleavened Bread, at the Feast of Weeks, and at the Feast of Tabernacles. No one shall appear before the Lord empty.
E toru nga wa o te tau e kitea ai ou tane katoa ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua, ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai ia: ko te hakari taro rewenakore, ko te hakari o nga wiki, ko te hakari whare wharau: kaua hoki e puta kau ki te aroaro o Ihowa:
17 But each one shall offer according to what he will have, according to the blessing of the Lord his God, which he will give to him.
Me homai e ia tangata te mea e taea e ia, kia rite ki te manaaki i homai e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe.
18 You shall appoint judges and magistrates at all your gates, which the Lord your God will give to you, throughout each of your tribes, so that they may judge the people with a just judgment,
Whakaturia etahi kaiwhakawa, me etahi rangatira mou i ou kuwaha katoa, e homai ana e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe, mo ou iwi: kia tika hoki ta ratou whakawa mo te iwi.
19 and not so as to show favoritism to either side. You shall not accept a person’s reputation, nor gifts. For gifts blind the eyes of the wise and alter the words of the just.
Kaua e whakapeaua ketia te whakawa; kaua hoki e whakapai kanohi; kaua ano e tango i te utu whakapati: he mea whakamatapo hoki te utu whakapati i nga kanohi o te hunga whakaaro nui, he mea whakapeau ke i nga kupu a te hunga tika.
20 You shall justly pursue what is just, so that you may live and possess the land, which the Lord your God will give to you.
Ko te mea tika anake tau e whai ai, kia ora ai koe, kia noho ai hoki ki te whenua e homai nei e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe.
21 You shall not plant a sacred grove, nor shall you plant any tree near the altar of the Lord your God;
Kaua e whakatokia e koe he Ahera o tehea momo rakau ki te taha o te aata a Ihowa, a tou Atua, e hanga e koe.
22 you shall neither make nor set up for yourself a statue. These things the Lord your God hates.”
Kaua ano hoki e whakaturia ake tetahi pou whakapakoko mau: e kinongia nei e Ihowa, e tou Atua.
