Deuteronomy 23
1 No man whose genitals have been damaged or cut off is allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary.
Ko te tangata kua unakatia, kua romiromia, kua tapahia atu ranei tona mea ngaro, e kore e uru ki roto ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa.
2 No one of mixed race is allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary, and none of his descendants may do so either, up to the tenth generation.
E kore e uru te poriro ki roto ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa; ahakoa tae ki te tekau o ona whakatupuranga, e kore e uru ki roto ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa.
3 No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their descendants are allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary, up to the tenth generation.
E kore e uru te Amoni, te Moapi ranei, ki roto ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa; ahakoa tae ki te tekau o o ratou whakatupuranga, e kore e uru ki roto ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa ake ake:
4 For they did not come to meet you with food and water on your journey from Egypt, and they hired Balaam, son of Beor, from Pethor in Mesopotamia, to curse you.
Mo ratou kihai i whakatau i a koutou, me te mau taro mai, me te mau wai mai mo koutou ki te ara, i to koutou putanga mai i Ihipa; mo ratou hoki i utu i a Paraama, i te tama a Peoro i Petoro i Mehopotamia, hei kanga mou.
5 But the Lord your God refused to listen to Balaam. The Lord your God turned what was meant to be a curse into a blessing for you because the Lord your God loves you.
Otiia kihai a Ihowa, tou Atua, i pai ki te whakarongo ki ta Paraama; engari whakaputaina ketia ake e Ihowa, e tou Atua te kanga hei manaaki mou; no te mea e aroha ana a Ihowa, tou Atua, ki a koe.
6 Don't arrange a peace treaty with them or help them out as long as you live.
Kei whai koe kia mau te rongo ki a ratou, kia kake ranei ratou i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe.
7 Don't look down on an Edomite, for they are your relatives. Don't look down on an Egyptian either, because you lived as foreigners in their country.
Kaua e whakarihariha ki te Eromi; ko tou tuakana hoki ia; kaua e whakarihariha ki te Ihipiana; he manene hoki koe i tona whenua i mua.
8 The third generation of their children are allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary.
Kei te toru o nga whakatupuranga ka uru a ratou tamariki e whanau ai ki roto ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa.
9 When you are in an army camp during a war with your enemies, make sure you avoid anything wrong.
Ki te haere a ope atu koe ki ou hoariri, kia tupato i nga mea kino katoa.
10 Any man there who becomes unclean because of a release of semen must leave the camp and remain outside.
Ki te mea kei roto i a koe tetahi tangata kahore i ma i te paheketanga o te po, na me haere atu ia ki waho o te puni; kaua ia e haere ki roto ki te puni:
11 Towards the end of the day he must wash himself with water, and at sunset he may return to the camp.
Otiia ka whakaahiahi, na me koroi ia e ia ki te wai; a ka toene te ra, ka haere ia ki roto ki te puni.
12 Choose a place outside the camp to be used as a toilet.
A me waiho e koe tetahi wahi i waho o te puni, hei putanga atu mou ki waho:
13 You need to have a spade as part of your equipment so that you can dig a hole, and then when you're finished you can cover up your excrement.
Kia whai kaheru hoki koe i roto i au mea; a ka noho koe ki waho, na me keri e koe ki taua mea, a ka tahuri ki te tanu i te mea i puta i roto i a koe:
14 The Lord your God is present with you in your camp to keep you safe and to defeat your enemies. Your camp must be kept holy, because if he sees anything unclean among you and he will leave you.
Kei te haereere hoki a Ihowa, tou Atua, i waenganui o tou puni, hei whakaora i a koe, hei tuku hoki i ou hoariri ki tou aroaro; mo reira kia tapu tou puni: kei kite ia i tetahi mea whakarihariha i roto i a koe, a ka tahuri ke i a koe.
15 Don't send a slave back to their master if they have come to you for protection.
Kaua e tukua atu ki tona rangatira te pononga i tahuti mai i tona rangatira ki a koe:
16 Let the slave live in your country wherever they want, in whatever town they want. Don't mistreat them.
Me noho ia ki a koe, ki waenga ou, ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai ia, ki tetahi o ou kuwaha, ki tana e pai ai: kaua ia e tukinotia.
17 No Israelite women or men are to be cult prostitutes.
Kaua tetahi o nga tamahine a Iharaira e waiho hei kairau, kaua ano hoki tetahi o nga tama a Iharaira e whakatangata o Horoma.
18 Don't bring into the house of the Lord your God any money from a prostitute, whether a woman or a man, using it to fulfill a promise to the Lord, for both are offensive to the Lord your God.
Kei kawea e koe te utu o te wahine kairau, te utu ranei o te kuri ki roto ki te whare o Ihowa, o tou Atua, hei mea ki taurangi: he mea whakarihariha hoki ena e rua ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua.
19 Don't charge a fellow Israelite interest on money, food, or any other kind of loan.
Kei whakatarewa koe i tetahi mea ki tou teina hei mea whakatupu; hei moni whakatupu, hei kai whakatupu, i tetahi ranei o nga mea e whakatarewaina ana hei whakatupu:
20 You may charge a foreigner interest, but not an Israelite, so that the Lord your God may bless you in everything you do in the country that you are going in to occupy.
He tangata ke, whakatarewaina atu te moni whakatupu; ki tou teina ia kaua e whakatarewaina: kia manaakitia ai koe e Ihowa, e tou Atua, i nga mea katoa e totoro atu ai tou ringa i runga i te whenua e haere atu nei koe ki reira tango ai.
21 If you make a promise to the Lord your God, don't be slow in keeping it, because he will definitely demand that you fulfill it and you will be guilty of sin if you don't.
Ki te puaki tau ki taurangi ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, kei whakaroa ki te whakamana; no te mea ka whaia mai e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe; a ka waiho hei hara mou.
22 If you don't make such promises then you won't be guilty of sin.
Ki te kahore ia e puaki tau ki taurangi, e kore e waiho hei hara mou.
23 But make sure to carry out what you've said to the Lord your God, because it was you who freely chose to make such a promise.
Ko te mea i puta atu i ou ngutu kai mana i a koe, mahia; kia rite hoki ki tau ki taurangi ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, hei whakahere tuku noa, hei pera me ta tou mangai i korero ai.
24 When you walk through your neighbor's vineyard, you can eat as many grapes as you want, but you must not collect any to take with you.
E haere koe ki te mara waina a tou hoa, kainga nga karepe e pai ai koe, a makona noa koe; kaua ia e kohia etahi ki tau oko.
25 When you walk through your neighbor's grainfield, you may pick the ears of grain with your hand, but you must not use a sickle to harvest it.
E haere koe ki te witi kahore ano kia kotia a tou hoa, na ma tou ringa e kato etahi hua; kaua ia he toronaihi e akina atu ki te witi a tou hoa, kahore ano kia kotia e ia.
