Exodus 20
1 God spoke all the following words:
Na ka korerotia e te Atua enei kupu katoa, ka mea,
2 “I am the Lord your God, who led you out of Egypt, out of the land of your slavery.
Ko Ihowa ahau, ko tou Atua, naku koe i whakaputa mai i te whenua o Ihipa, i te whare pononga.
3 You must not have any other gods except me.
Aua etahi atua ke atu mou ki mua i ahau.
4 You must not make for yourself any kind of idol, whether in the form of anything in the heavens above, or on the earth beneath, or in the waters below.
Kei hanga koe i te whakapakoko mou, i tetahi ritenga ranei o nga mea o te rangi i runga, o te whenua ranei i raro, o te wai ranei i raro i te whenua:
5 You must not bow down before them or worship them; for I am the Lord your God and I am passionately exclusive. I lay the consequences of the sin of those who hate me on their sons, grandsons, and great-grandsons;
Kei koropiko koe ki ena mea, kei mahi ranei ki ena mea; ko Ihowa hoki ahau, ko tou Atua, he Atua hae, e mea ana i nga hara o nga matua kia tau iho ki nga tamariki a te toru, te wha ra ano o nga whakatupuranga o te hunga e kino ana ki ahau;
6 but I show trustworthy love to the thousands of generations who love me and keep my commandments.
E whakaputa aroha ana hoki ki nga mano, ki te hunga e aroha ana ki ahau, e whakarite ana i aku ture.
7 You must not use the name of the Lord your God in a wrong way, for the Lord will not forgive anyone who uses his name in a wrong way.
Kei whakahuatia noatia e koe te ingoa o Ihowa, o tou Atua; e kore hoki a Ihowa e mea, he harakore te tangata e whakahua noa ana i tona ingoa.
8 Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy.
Kia mahara ki te ra hapati, kia whakatapua.
9 You have six days to work and earn your living,
E ono nga ra e mahi ai koe, e mea ai hoki i au mea katoa;
10 but the seventh day is the Sabbath to honor the Lord your God. On this day you must not do any work—not you, not your son or daughter, not your male slave or female slave or livestock, and not the foreigner who is staying with you.
Tena ko te ra whitu, he hapati no Ihowa, no tou Atua: kaua e mahia tetahi mahi i reira e koe, e tau tama, e tau tamahine, e tau pononga tane, e tau pononga wahine, e au kararehe hoki, me tou tangata ke i roto i ou tatau;
11 For the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and everything in them in six days, and then rested on the seventh day. That's why the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.
E ono hoki nga ra i hanga ai e Ihowa te rangi, me te whenua, te moana, me nga mea katoa i roto, a okioki ana i te ra whitu: na reira i whakapaingia ai te ra hapati e Ihowa, a whakatapua ana.
12 Honor your father and mother, so that you may live a long time in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.
Whakahonoretia tou papa me tou whaea; kia roa ai ou ra ki te whenua e homai nei e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe.
13 You must not murder.
Kaua e patu.
14 You must not commit adultery.
Kaua e puremu.
15 You must not steal.
Kaua e tahae.
16 You must not give false evidence against others.
Kaua e whakapae teka ki tou hoa.
17 You must not desire to have anyone else's house. You must not desire to have their wife, or their male slave or female slave, or their ox or donkey, or anything else that belongs to them.”
Kaua e hiahia ki te whare o tou hoa, kaua e hiahia ki te wahine a tou hoa, ki tana pononga tane ranei, ki tana pononga wahine ranei, ki tana kau ranei, ki tana kaihe ranei, ki tetahi mea ranei a tou hoa.
18 When all the people heard the thunder and the sound of the trumpet, and saw the lightning and the smoke from the mountain, they trembled with fear and stood a long way off.
A i kite te iwi katoa i nga whatitiri, i nga uira, i te tangi o te tetere, i te maunga hoki e paowa ana: a, i te kitenga o te iwi, ka wiri ratou, a tu rawa i tawhiti.
19 “You speak to us, and we'll listen,” they said to Moses. “But don't let God speak to us, or we'll die.”
A ka mea ratou ki a Mohi, Mau e korero mai ki a matou, a ka whakarongo atu matou; engari kaua te Atua e korero ki a matou, kei mate matou.
20 Moses told them, “Do not be afraid, for God has only come to test you. He wants you to be in awe of him so that you don't sin.”
Na ka mea a Mohi ki te iwi, Kaua e wehi: he whakamatau hoki i a koutou i haere mai ai te Atua, kia mau ai hoki tona wehi i o koutou kanohi, kei hara koutou.
21 The people stood a long way off as Moses went over to the thick, dark cloud where God was.
A tu ana te iwi i tawhiti; ko Mohi ia, i whakatata ki te pouri kerekere i noho ai te Atua.
22 The Lord told Moses, “This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘You saw for yourselves that I spoke with you from heaven.
A ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Kia penei tau kupu ki nga tama a Iharaira, Ka kite koutou kua korero ahau i te rangi ki a koutou.
23 You must not make any idols of silver or gold to worship in addition to me.
Kei hanga koutou he atua ke atu ki toku taha; kei hanga koutou he atua hiriwa, he atua koura ranei, mo koutou.
24 Make me an altar of earth, and sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and peace offerings, your sheep, goats, and cattle. Wherever I decide to be worshiped, I will come to you and bless you.
Hanga he aata oneone maku, ki runga patu ai koe i au tahunga tinana, i au whakahere mo te pai, i au hipi, i au kau: i nga wahi katoa e whakamaharatia ai e ahau toku ingoa ka haere atu ahau ki a koe, ka manaaki i a koe.
25 Now if you make an altar out of stones for me, you must not build it with cut stones, because if you use a chisel to cut the stone, you make it unholy.
A ki te hanga koe i te aata kohatu maku, kei hanga e koe ki te kohatu hahau; ki te hapai hoki koe i tau toki ki taua mea, kua whakanoatia e koe.
26 Also, you must not go up to my altar using steps, so your private parts are not seen.’”
Kaua ano e piki na te arawhata ki toku aata, kei kitea koe i reira e tu tahanga ana.
