Leviticus 17
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,
2 Speak to Aaron and his sons, and to all the sons of Israel, saying to them: This is the word, which the Lord has commanded, saying:
Korero ki a Arona, ki ana tama, ki nga tama katoa a Iharaira, mea atu ki a ratou, Ko te mea tenei i whakahau ai a Ihowa, i mea ai,
3 Any man at all of the house of Israel, if he will have killed an ox, or a sheep, or a goat in the camp or beyond the camp,
Ki te patua e tetahi tangata o te whare o Iharaira he kau, he reme, he koati ranei, i roto i te puni, ki te patua ranei e ia ki waho o te puni,
4 and not have presented it as an oblation to the Lord at the door of the tabernacle, he shall be guilty of blood. It is just as if he had shed blood; so then, he shall perish from the midst of his people.
A e kore e kawea ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, kia whakaherea he whakahere ki a Ihowa ki mua i te tapenakara o Ihowa; ka whakairia he toto ki taua tangata; kua whakaheke toto ia; a ka hatepea atu taua tangata i roto i tona iw i:
5 Therefore, the sons of Israel must offer to the priest their victims, which they kill in the field, so that they may be sanctified to the Lord before the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, and so that they may immolate them as peace offerings to the Lord.
He mea kia kawea ai e nga tama a Iharaira a ratou patunga e whakaherea ana e ratou i te mata o te parae, kia kawea ai hoki ki a Ihowa, ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakatoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, ki te tohunga, ka patu ai hei whakahere mo te pai ki a Ihowa.
6 And the priest shall pour the blood upon the altar of the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, and he shall burn the fat as a sweet odor to the Lord.
A ka tauhiuhia te toto e te tohunga ki te aata a Ihowa i te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, me tahu ano e ia te ngako hei kakara reka ki a Ihowa.
7 And they shall no longer immolate their victims to demons, with whom they have committed fornication. It shall be an everlasting ordinance for them and for their posterity.
A ka mutu a ratou patunga tapu ki nga rewera i whaia nei e ratou, puremu atu ai. Hei tikanga pumau tenei ki a ratou i o ratou whakatupuranga.
8 And you shall say to them: The man of the house of Israel, or of the newcomers who sojourn with you, who offers a holocaust or a victim,
Me ki atu ano ki a ratou, Ki te whakaherea e tetahi tangata o te whare o Iharaira, o nga manene ranei i roto i a koutou, tetahi tahunga tinana, patunga tapu ranei,
9 and who does not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, so that it may be offered to the Lord, shall pass away from his people.
A e kore e kawea ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, whakahere ai ki a Ihowa; ina, ka hatepea atu taua tangata i roto i tona iwi.
10 Any man at all of the house of Israel, or of the newcomers who sojourn among them, if he has eaten blood, I will harden my face against his soul, and I will drive him from his people.
Ki te kainga hoki tetahi toto e tetahi tangata o te whare o Iharaira, o nga manene ranei i roto i a koutou; ka u atu toku mata ki taua wairua i kainga ai te toto, a ka hatepea atu e ahau i roto i tona iwi.
11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you, so that you may atone with it upon the altar for your souls, and so that the blood may be for an expiation of the soul.
Kei roto hoki i te toto te oranga o te kikokiko; kua hoatu ano e ahau ki a koutou mo runga i te aata, hei whakamarie mo o koutou wairua: ko te toto hoki, na tona ora, te mea hei whakamarie.
12 For this reason, I have said to the sons of Israel: No soul among you shall eat blood, nor among the newcomers who sojourn with you.
Koia ahau i mea ai ki nga tama a Iharaira, Kaua tetahi o koutou e kai toto, kaua ano hoki te manene i roto i a koutou e kai toto.
13 Any man at all from the sons of Israel, or from the newcomers who sojourn with you, whether by hunting or bird-catching, if he seizes a wild beast or a bird, which is lawful to eat, let him pour out its blood and cover the earth with it.
Ki te whai hoki tetahi o nga tama a Iharaira, o nga manene ranei i roto i a koutou, a ka mau tetahi kirehe, tetahi manu ranei e tika ana kia kainga: me riringi ona toto, ka tanu ai ki te puehu.
14 For the life of all flesh is in the blood. Therefore, I said to the sons of Israel: You shall not eat the blood of any flesh at all, because the life of the flesh is in the blood, and whoever has eaten it shall perish.
No te mea ko te toto o te kikokiko e kotahi katoa ana me te ora o te kikokiko: koia ahau i mea ai ki nga tama a Iharaira, Kaua rawa e kainga te toto o tetahi kikokiko: ko te toto hoki te ora o nga kikokiko katoa: ki te kainga e tetahi, ka hatepe a atu.
15 The soul who eats what has died on its own, or what has been caught by a beast, whether he is native born or a newcomer, shall wash his clothes and himself with water, and he shall be contaminated until evening. And by this means he shall be made clean.
Ki te kainga hoki e tetahi te mea i mate maori, te mea ranei i haea e te kirehe, ahakoa tangata whenua, iwi ke ranei, me horoi ona kakahu, me ia ano me horoi ki te wai, ka poke hoki a ahiahi noa: katahi ka kore te poke.
16 But if he will not wash his clothes and his body, he shall bear his iniquity.
A ki te kahore e horoia e ia, ki te kahore hoki e horoia tona tinana, na ka waha e ia tona kino.
