Deuteronomy 18
1 The priests the Levites, and all the tribe of Levi, shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel: they shall eat the offerings of YHWH made by fire, and his inheritance.
O NA kahuna, na Levi, o na ohana a pau a Levi, aohe o lakou kuleana, aohe aina hooili me ka Iseraela: e ai no lakou i na mohai no Iehova i puhi i ke ahi, a me ka mea e ili mai ana nona.
2 Therefore shall they have no inheritance among their brethren: YHWH is their inheritance, as he hath said unto them.
No ia mea, aole o lakou aina hooili iwaena o ko lakou poe hoahanau; o Iehova oia ko lakou hooilina e like me kana i olelo mai ai ia lakou.
3 And this shall be the priest's due from the people, from them that offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep; and they shall give unto the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the maw.
Eia ka ke kahuna wahi na na kanaka mai, na ka poe e kaumaha aku i ka mohai, i ka bipikane paha, i ka hipa paha: a e haawi aku lakou i ka uha mua a me na papalina elua, a me ka opu na ke kahuna.
4 The firstfruit also of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the first of the fleece of thy sheep, shalt thou give him.
O ka hua mua o kau palaoa, o kou waina, a me kou aila, a o ka hulu ako mua o kau poe hipa, o kau ia e haawi aku ai nana.
5 For YHWH thy Elohim hath chosen him out of all thy tribes, to stand to minister in the name of YHWH, him and his sons for ever.
No ka mea, ua wae mai o Iehova ia ia mailoko mai o kou mau ohana a pau, e ku e lawelawe ma ka inoa o Iehova, oia a me kana mau keiki i na la a pau loa.
6 And if a Levite come from any of thy gates out of all Israel, where he sojourned, and come with all the desire of his mind unto the place which YHWH shall choose;
Ina paha e hele mai kekahi o ka Levi mailoko mai o kekahi o kou mau ipuka o ka Iseraela a pau ana i noho malihini ai; a e hele mai ia me ka makemake a pau o kona naau ma kahi a Iehova e wae ai;
7 Then he shall minister in the name of YHWH his Elohim, as all his brethren the Levites do, which stand there before YHWH.
Alaila e lawelawe no ia ma ka inoa o Iehova kona Akua, e like me kona poe hoahanau a pau, o ka Levi e ku ana malaila imua o Iehova.
8 They shall have like portions to eat, beside that which cometh of the sale of his patrimony.
E hoohalikeia ka lakou mea e ai ai, a o kona waiwai hoi i kuaiia na na makua mai.
9 When thou art come into the land which YHWH thy Elohim giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.
A hiki aku oe ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi mai ai ia oe, mai ao iho oe e hana e like me na mea haumia o ua mau lahuikanaka la.
10 There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.
Aole e ikeia iwaena o oukou ka mea nana e kuu aku i kana keikikane a i kana kaikamahine paha e hele mawaena o ke ahi; aole hoi he kahuna anaana, aole he mea nana i ke ao, aole hoi he mea nana moo, aole ka mea kilo;
11 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
Aole hoi he mea hoowalewale i na nahesa, aole hoi he mea ninau i na uhane ino, aole hoi he kupua, aole he mea ninau i ka poe make.
12 For all that do these things are an abomination unto YHWH: and because of these abominations YHWH thy Elohim doth drive them out from before thee.
No ka mea, o ka poe a pau e hana ana ia mea, ua haumia lakou imua o Iehova: no keia mau mea hoohaumia, na Iehova kou Akua e kipaku aku ana ia lakou mai kou alo aku.
13 Thou shalt be perfect with YHWH thy Elohim.
E hemolele oe imua o Iehova kou Akua.
14 For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, YHWH thy Elohim hath not suffered thee so to do.
No ka mea, o keia mau lahuikanaka e lilo ana nou, ua hoolohe lakou i na mea nana i ke ao, a me na kahuna anaana: aka o oe, aole o Iehova kou Akua i ae mai ia oe e hana pela.
15 YHWH thy Elohim will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;
E hooku mai auanei o Iehova kou Akua mai waena mai ou i Kaula nou, i kekahi hoahanau on e like me au, e hoolohe oukou ia ia;
16 According to all that thou desiredst of YHWH thy Elohim in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of YHWH my Elohim, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not.
E like me ka mea a pau na i noi aku ai ia Iehova kou Akua ma Horeba, i ka la i houluulu ai, i ka i ana'ku, Aole au e lohe hou i ka leo o Iehova ko'u Akua, aole hoi au e ike hou i keia ahi nui, o make au.
17 And YHWH said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken.
I mai la o Iehova ia'u, He pono ka lakou i olelo mai ai.
18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
E hooku auanei au i Kaula no lakou no waena mai o ko lakou poe hoahanau, e like me oe, a e waiho ana au i ka'u mau olelo maloko o kona waha; a nana e olelo aku ia lakou ka mea a pau a'u e kauoha aku ai ia ia.
19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.
A o ke kanaka hoolohe ole i ka'u mau olelo, ana e olelo aku ai ma ko'u inoa, na'u no ia e hoopai aku.
20 But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other elohim, even that prophet shall die.
A o ke kaula e aa ana e olelo aku i kekahi olelo ma ko'u inoa i ka mea a'u i kauoha ole aku ai ia ia e olelo, a e olelo aku paha ia ma ka inoa o na akua e, e make ua kaula la.
21 And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which YHWH hath not spoken?
Ina e i iho oe iloko o kou naau, Pehea la makou e ike ai i ka olelo a Iehova i olelo ole mai ai?
22 When a prophet speaketh in the name of YHWH, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which YHWH hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.
A i olelo aku kekahi kaula ma ka inoa o Iehova, a hiki ole mai ia mea, aole hoi ia e ko, oia ka mea a Iehova i olelo ole mai ai; ua olelo aku ua kaula la me ka hookiekie; mai makau aku oe ia ia.
