< Deuteronomy 26 >

1 “And when you will have entered into the land which the Lord your God will give to you to possess, and when you will have obtained it and are living within it:
A IA hiki aku oe ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi mai ai nou, a lilo ia nou, a noho iho oe malaila;
2 you shall take the first of all your crops, and place them in a basket, and you shall travel to the place which the Lord your God will choose, so that his name may be invoked there.
E kii oe i kekahi o na hua mua a pau o ka honua, a o kau ia e lawe no ka aina a Iehova kou Akua i haawi mai ai nou, a e waiho iloko o ka hinai, a e hele aku oe ma kahi a Iehova kou Akua i wae ai e hoopaa i kona inoa malaila.
3 And you shall approach the priest who will be in those days, and you shall say to him: ‘I profess this day, before the Lord your God, that I have entered into the land about which he swore to our fathers that he would give it to us.’
A e hele oe i ke kahuna e noho ana ia mau la, a e i aku ia ia, Ke hooia aku nei au ia Iehova kou Akua i keia la, no ka mea, ua hiki mai nei au ma ka aina a Iehova i hoohiki ai i ko kakou mau kupana e haawi mai no kakou.
4 And the priest, taking up the basket from your hand, shall place it before the altar of the Lord your God.
A e lawe ke kahuna i ka hinai mai kou lima ae, a e waiho ia imua o ke kuahu o Iehova kou Akua.
5 And you shall say, in the sight of the Lord your God: ‘The Syrian pursued my father, who descended into Egypt, and he sojourned there in a very small number, and he increased into a great and strong nation and into an innumerable multitude.
A e hai aku oe me ka olelo aku imua o Iehova kou Akua, He kanaka kuewa kou makuakane no Suria, a iho no ia i Aigupita, a noho mahihini malaila, he poe uuku, a lilo ia malaila i lahuikanaka nui, ikaika, a lehulehu.
6 And the Egyptians afflicted us, and they persecuted us, imposing upon us the most grievous burdens.
A hana ino mai ko Aigupita ia kakou, a hooluhi mai ia kakou, a haawi mai ia kakou i na hana kaumaha loa.
7 And we cried out to the Lord, the God of our fathers. He heard us, and he looked with favor upon our humiliation, and hardship, and distress.
A kahea aku kakou ia Iehova ke Akua o ko kakou mau kupuna, hoolohe mai no o Iehova i ko kakou leo, a nana mai ia i ko kakou luhi, a me ka kakou hana, a me ko kakou kaumaha.
8 And he led us away from Egypt, with a strong hand and an outstretched arm, with a mighty terror, with signs and wonders.
A lawe mai o Iehova ia kakou mai Aigupita mai me ka lima ikaika, a me ka lima kakauha, a me ka mea weliweli nui, a me na hoailona, a me na mea kupanaha.
9 And he led us into this place, and he delivered to us the land flowing with milk and honey.
A ua lawe mai hoi oia ia kakou ma keia wahi, a ua haawi ia kakou i keia aina, he aina e kahe ana o ka waiu a me ka meli.
10 And because of this, I now offer the first fruits of the land which the Lord has given to me.’ And you shall leave them in the sight of the Lord your God, and you shall adore the Lord your God.
Eia hoi, ua lawe mai nei au, e Iehova, i ka hua mua o ka aina au i haawi mai ai ia'u. A e waiho oe ia mea imua o Iehova kou Akua, a e hoomana aku imua o Iehova kou Akua.
11 And you shall feast on all the good things which the Lord your God will give to you and to your house: you, and the Levite, and the new arrival who is with you.
A e olioli oe i na mea maikai a pau a Iehova kou Akua i haawi mai ai ia oe, a me ko ka hale ou, o oe, a me ka Levi, a me ka malihini iwaena ou.
12 When you will have completed the tithing of all your crops, in the third year of tithes, you shall give it to the Levite, and to the new arrival, and to the orphan, and to the widow, so that they may eat within your gates and be satisfied.
Aia hoopau oe i ka hookupu ana i ka hapaumi a pau o kau mea i loaa i ke kolu o ka makahiki, oia ka makahiki hookupu i ka hapaumi; a haawi aku i ka Levi a i ka malihini, a i ka mea makua ole, a me ka wahinekanemake, i ai iho ai lakou ma kou mau ipuka a maona;
13 And you shall say, in the sight of the Lord your God: ‘I have taken what was sanctified from my house, and I have given it to the Levite, and to the new arrival, and to the orphan and the widow, just as you have commanded me. I have not transgressed your commandments, nor have I forgotten your precepts.
Alaila e olelo aku oe imua o Iehova kou Akua, Ua lawe mai nei au i ka mea i hoolaaia mai ko'u hale mai, a ua haawi aku hoi i ka Levi, a i ka malihini, a i ka mea makua ole, a i ka wahinekanemake, e like me kau mau kauoha a pau au i kanoha mai ai ia'u; aole au i hoohala i kau mau kauoha, aole hoi au i hoopoina;
14 I have not eaten from these things in my grief, nor have I separated them due to any kind of uncleanness, nor have I expended any of these things in funerals. I have obeyed the voice of the Lord my God, and I have done all things just as you have instructed me.
Aole au i ai i kekahi o ia mea i kuu makena ana, aole au i lawe i kekahi o ia mea no ka mea haumia, aole hoi au i haawi i kekahi o ia mea no ka mea i make; ua hoolohe no au i ka leo o Iehova ko'u Akua, a ua hana au e like me na mea a pau au i kauoha mai ai ia'u.
15 Look with favor from your sanctuary and from your lofty habitation amid the heavens, and bless your people Israel and the land which you have given to us, just as you swore to our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.’
E nana mai oe mai kou wahi hoano, mai ka lani mai, a e hoomaikai mai i kou poe kanaka, i ka Iseraela, a me ka aina au i haawi mai ai no makou, e like me au i hoohiki ai i ko makou mau kupuna, he aina e kahe ana o ka waiu a me ka meli.
16 Today the Lord your God has instructed you to carry out these commandments and judgments, and to keep and fulfill them, with all your heart and with all your soul.
I keia la, ua kauoha mai o Iehova kou Akua ia oe e hana ma keia mau kanawai, a me ua olelo kupaa; e malama hoi oe a e hana ma ia mau mea me kou naau a pau, a me kou uhane a pau.
17 Today, you have chosen the Lord to be your God, so that you may walk in his ways, and keep his ceremonies and commandments and judgments, and obey his command.
I keia la ua hooia aku oe ia Iehova, i Akua nou, a e hele ma kona mau aoao, a e malama i kona mau kanawai, a i kana mau kauoha, a me kana mau olelo kupaa, a e hoolohe i kona leo.
18 Today, the Lord has chosen you, so that you may be his particular people, just as he has spoken to you, and so that you may keep all his precepts,
A ua hooia mai o Iehova ia oe i keia la, he poe kanaka ponoi nona, e like me kana i olelo mai ai ia oe, i malama ai oe i kana mau kauoha a pau:
19 and so that he may cause you to be more exalted than all the nations which he has created, for the sake of his own praise and name and glory, in order that you may be a holy people for the Lord your God, just as he has spoken.”
A e hookiekie mai oia ia oe maluna o na lahuikanaka a pau ana i hana'i, ma ka hoolea ana, a ma ka inoa, a ma ka hoomaikai; a e lilo oe i poe kanaka hemolele no Iehova, e like me kana i olelo mai ai.
