< Deuteronomy 4 >
1 And now, Israel, hear the ordinances and judgments, all that I teach you this day to do: that you may live, and be multiplied, and that you may go in and inherit the land, which the Lord God of your fathers gives you.
A NO hoi, e hoolohe, e ka Iseraela, i na kanawai a me na olelo kupaa a'u e ao aku nei ia oukou, e malama, i ola oukou, i komo hoi oukou, a noho ma ka aina a Iehova ke Akua o ko oukou poe kupuna e haawi mai ai no oukou.
2 You shall not add to the word which I command you, and you shall not take from it: keep the commandments of the Lord our God, all that I command you this day.
Mai hoopili mai oukou i kekahi olelo me ka mea a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oukou, aole hoi oukou e hooemi iho ia, i malama ai oukou i na kauoha a Iehova ko oukou Akua a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oukou.
3 Your eyes have seen all that the Lord our God did in [the case of] Beel-phegor; for every man that went after Beel-phegor, the Lord your God has utterly destroyed him from among you.
Ua ike ko oukou maka i ka mea a Iehova i hana mai ai no Baala-peora; no ka mea, o na kanaka a pau i hahai mamuli o Baala-peora, na Iehova kou Akua lakou i luku aku mai o oukou aku.
4 But you that kept close to the Lord your God are all alive today.
Aka, o oukou, ka poe i pili aku ia Iehova ko oukou Akua, ke ola nei no oukou a pau i keia la.
5 Behold, I have shown you ordinances and judgments as the Lord commanded me, that you should do so in the land into which you go to inherit it.
Aia hoi, ua ao aku au ia oukou i na kanawai a me na olelo kupaa, e like me ka Iehova ko'u Akua i kauoha mai ai ia'u, e malama oukou pela ma ka aina a oukou e hele aku ai e noho.
6 And you shall keep and do them: for this is your wisdom and understanding before all nations, as many as shall hear all these ordinances; and they shall say, Behold, this great nation [is] a wise and understanding people.
E malama hoi oukou, a e hana aku; no ka mea, o ko oukou naauao keia, a me ko oukou ike imua o na lahuikanaka, ka poe e lohe i keia mau kanawai a pau, a e i ae lakou, He oiaio, o keia lahuikanaka nui, he poe kanaka naauao a me ka ike.
7 For what manner of nation [is so] great, which has God so near to them as the Lord our God [is] in all things in whatever we may call upon him?
No ka mea, owai la ka lahuikanaka nui, ia lakou ke Akua e hookokoke ana ia lakou, e like me Iehova ko kakou Akua, ma na mea a pau a kakou i kahea aku ai ia ia?
8 And what manner of nation [is so] great, which has righteous ordinances and judgments according to all this law, which I set before you this day?
A owai hoi ka lahuikanaka nui, ia ia na kanawai, a me na olelo kupaa ma ka pono e like me keia kanawai a pau a'u e waiho nei imua o oukou i keia la.
9 Take heed to yourself, and keep your heart diligently: forget not any of the things, which your eyes have seen, and let them not depart from your heart all the days of your life; and you shall teach your sons and your sons' sons,
E makaala ia oe iho, a e malama nui hoi i kou naau, o hoopoina auanei oe i na mea a kou maka i ike ai, a o nalowale auanei ia mea i kou naau i na la a pau o kou ola ana; aka, e ao aku ia mau mea i kau mau keiki, a me kau mau moopuna;
10 [even the things that happened in] the day in which you stood before the Lord our God in Choreb in the day of the assembly; for the Lord said to me, Gather the people to me, and let them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days which they live upon the earth, and they shall teach their sons.
I ka la au i ku ai imua o Iehova kou Akua ma Horeba, i ka Iehova olelo ana mai ia'u, E houluulu oe i na kanaka imua o'u, a e ao aku au ia lakou e hoolohe i ka'u mau olelo, i aoia'i lakou e makau ia'u i na la a pau o ko lakou noho ana ma ka honua, a i ao aku ai lakou i ka lakou poe keiki.
11 And you drew near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire up to heaven: [there was] darkness, blackness, [and] tempest.
Hele kokoke mai oukou, a ku ae la malalo o ka mauna; a ua wela ka mauna i ke alii, a iwaena o ka lani me ka poeleele, me ke ao, a me ka pouli nui.
12 And the Lord spoke to you out of the midst of the fire a voice of words, which you heard: and you saw no likeness, only [you heard] a voice.
A olelo mai o Iehova ia oukou maiwaena mai o ke ahi: a lohe oukou i ka leo o na olelo, aole nae oukou i ike aku i ke ano, o ka leo wale no.
13 And he announced to you his covenant, which he commanded you to keep, even the ten commandments; and he wrote them on two tables of stone.
Hai mai la no oia ia oukou i ka berita ana i kauoha mai ai ia oukou e malama, oia na kanawai he umi; a kakau iho la no oia ia mau mea ma na papapohaku elua,
14 And the Lord commanded me at that time, to teach you ordinances and judgments, that you should do them on the land, into which you go to inherit it.
A kauoha mai o Iehova ia'u i kela manawa e ao aku ia oukou i na kanawai a me na olelo kupaa, e malama oukou ia mau mea ma ka aina a oukou e hele ai a noho.
15 And take good heed to your hearts, for you saw no similitude in the day in which the Lord spoke to you in Choreb in the mountain out of the midst of the fire:
E malama nui oukou ia oukou iho; no ka mea, aole oukou i ike i kekahi ano kii i ka la a Iehova i olelo mai ai ia oukou ma Horeba mailoko mai o ke ahi;
16 lest you transgress, and make to yourselves a carved image, any kind of figure, the likeness of male or female,
O hana hewa auanei, a hana aku oukou i kii kalaiia no oukou, ma ka like ana me kekahi mea, o ke kane, a o ka wahine paha,
17 the likeness of any beast of those that are on the earth, the likeness of any winged bird which flies under heaven,
Ma ka like ana me kekahi holoholona ma ka honua, ma ka like ana me kekahi manu e lele ana i ke ao;
18 the likeness of any reptile which creeps on the earth, the likeness of any fish of those which are in the waters under the earth;
Ma ka like ana me kekahi mea e kolo ana ma ka honua, ma ka like ana me kekahi ia maloko o ka wai malalo ae o ka honua:
19 and lest having looked up to the sky, and having seen the sun and the moon and the stars, and all the heavenly bodies, you should go astray and worship them, and serve them, which the Lord your God has distributed to all the nations under heaven.
A o leha ae auanei kou maka ma ka lani, a ike aku oe i ka la, a me ka mahina, a me na hoku, i na mea a pau o ka lani, a e koiia oe e hoomana aku ia mau mea, a e malama ia lakou, i na mea a Iehova kou Akua i hana'i no na lahuikanaka a pau malalo ae o ka lani.
20 But God took you, and led you forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be to him a people of inheritance, as at this day.
Aka, ua lawe mai o Iehova ia oukou, a ua alakai hoi ia oukou mailoko mai o ke kapuahihao, mai Aigupita mai, e lilo oukou i poe kanaka hooilina nona, e like me oukou i keia la.
21 And the Lord God was angry with me for the things said by you, and sware that I should not go over this Jordan, and that I should not enter into the land, which the Lord your God gives you for an inheritance.
A huhu mai o Iehova ia'u no oukou, a hoohiki iho, aole au e hele ma kela kapa o Ioredane, aole hoi au e komo iloko o kela aina maikai a Iehova kou Akua i hooili mai ai no oukou:
22 For I am to die in this land, and shall not pass over this Jordan; but you are to pass over, and shall inherit this good land.
No ka mea, e make no wau ma keia aina, aole au e hele ma kela kapa o Ioredane: aka, e hele no oukou ma kela aoao, a e lilo kela aina maikai no oukou.
23 Take heed to yourselves, lest you forget the covenant of the Lord our God, which he made with you, and you transgress, and make to yourselves a graven image of any of the things concerning which the Lord your God commanded you.
E malama pono ia oukou iho, o poina ia oukou ka berita a Iehova i hana mai ai me oukou, a hana oukou i kii kalaiia no oukou, ma ka like ana me kekahi mea a Iehova kou Akua i papa mai ai ia oe.
24 For the Lord your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.
No ka mea, o Iehova kou Akua, he ahi ia e hoopau ana, he Akua lili.
25 And when you shall have begotten sons, and shall have sons' sons, and you shall have lived a long time on the land, and shall have transgressed, and made a graven image of any thing, and shall have done wickedly before the Lord your God to provoke him;
A loaa ia oukou na keiki a me na mamo, a loihi ko oukou noho ana ma ka aina, a e hana hewa oukou, a e hana oukou i kii kalaiia, ma ke ano o kekahi mea, a hana ino hoi imua o na maka o Iehova, e hoonaukiuki ia ia;
26 I call heaven and earth this day to witness against you, that you shall surely perish from off the land, into which you go across Jordan to inherit it there; you shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall be utterly cut off.
Ke hai aku nei au i keia la, he ike maka ka lani a me ka honua ia oukou, e make koke ana oukou, mai ka aina aku a oukou e hele aku ma kela kapa o Ioredane e noho ai; aole e noho loihi oukou malaila, aka, e luku loa ia aku oukou.
27 And the Lord shall scatter you among all nations, and you shall be left few in number among all the nations, among which the Lord shall bring you.
A na Iehova oukou e hoopuehu aku iwaena o na lahuikanaka, a e waihoia oukou, he poe uuku iwaena o ko na aina e, kahi a Iehova e kai aku ai ia oukou.
28 And you shall there serve other gods, the works of the hands of men, wood and stones, which can’t see, nor can they hear, nor eat, nor smell.
A malaila oukou e malama ai i na akua i hanaia e na lima o kanaka, he laau, he pohaku, ka mea ike ole aole hoi e lohe, aole hoi e ai, aole hoi e honi.
29 And there you shall seek the Lord your God, and you shall find him whenever you shall seek him with all your heart, and with all your soul in your affliction.
Aka, ina ma ia wahi oe e imi ai ia Iehova kou Akua, e loaa ia oe, ke imi oe ia ia me kou naau a pau, a me kou uhane a pau.
30 And all these things shall come upon you in the last days, and you shall turn to the Lord your God, and shall listen to his voice.
A loaa ia oe ka popilikia, a hiki mai keia mau mea a pau maluna ou i na la mahope, a i huli mai oe ia Iehova kou Akua, a hoolohe i kona leo,
31 Because the Lord your God [is] a God of pity: he will not forsake you, nor destroy you; he will not forget the covenant of your fathers, which the Lord sware to them.
(No ka mea, o Iehova kou Akua, he Akua aloha, ) aole ia e haalele mai ia oe, aole e luku mai ia oe, aole hoi ia e hoopoina i ka berita o kou mau kupuna ana i hoohiki ai ia lakou.
32 Ask of the former days which were before you, from the day when God created man upon the earth, and [beginning] at the [one] end of heaven to the other end of heaven, if there has happened any thing like to this great event, if such a thing has been heard:
Ano e ninau aku oe i na la i hala mahope, i ka wa mamua ou, a mai ka manawa mai a ke Akua i hana'i ke kanaka ma ka honua, a mai kela aoao o ka lani a hiki i keia aoao o ka lani, auhea ae nei ka mea like me keia mea nui, auhea ka mea i loheia e like ai me ia?
33 if a nation have heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as you have heard and have lived;
Owai la ka poe kanaka i lohe i ka leo o ke Akua e olelo ana, mailoko mai o ke ahi, e like me kou lohe ana, a ola?
34 if God has assayed to go and take to himself a nation out of the midst of [another] nation with trial, and with signs, and with wonders, and with war, and with a mighty hand, and with a high arm, and with great sights, according to all the things which the Lord our God did in Egypt in your sight.
Ua hoao anei ke Akua e hele a e lawe i lahuikanaka nona maiwaena mai o kekahi lahuikanaka, ma na hoao ana, a ma na hoailona, a ma na mea kupanaha, a ma ke kaua, a ma ka lima ikaika, a ma ka lima kakauha, a ma na mea weliweli nui, e like me na mea a pau a Iehova ko oukou Akua i hana mai ai no oukou ma Aigupita imua o kou maka?
35 So that you should know that the Lord your God he is God, and there is none beside him.
Ua hoikeia ia mea ia oe, i ike ai oe, o Iehova, oia ke Akua, aohe mea e ae, oia wale no.
36 His voice was made audible from heaven to instruct you, and he showed you upon the earth his great fire, and you heard his words out of the midst of the fire.
Oia no ka mea i lohe ai oe i kona leo mai ka lani mai, i ao ai oia ia oe; a ma ka honua, i hoike mai ia ia oe i kona ahi nui; a ua lohe oe i kana mau huaolelo mailoko mai o ke ahi.
37 Because he loved your fathers, he also chose you their seed after them, and he brought you himself with his great strength out of Egypt,
A no kona aloha i na kupuna ou, oia ka mea i wae mai ai ia i ka lakou poe mamo mahope o lakou, a lawe mai oia ia oe imua ona me kona mana nui mai Aigupita mai;
38 to destroy nations great and stronger than you before your face, to bring you in, to give you their land to inherit, as you have it this day.
E hookuke aku i na lahuikanaka mai kou alo aku, i ka poe ua oi aku ko lakou nui, a me ko lakou ikaika i kou, e hookomo ia oe, a e hoolilo i ko lakou aina nou, e like me ia i keia la.
39 An you shall know this day, and shall consider in your heart, that the Lord your God he [is] God in heaven above, and on the earth beneath, and there is none else but he.
E ike hoi oe i keia la, a e noonoo maloko o kou naau, o Iehova, oia ke Akua ma ka lani iluna, a ma ka honua ilalo, aole e ae.
40 And keep you his commandments, and his ordinances, all that I command you this day; that it may be well with you, and with your sons after you, that you may be long-lived upon the earth, which the Lord your God gives you for ever.
E malama hoi oe i kona mau kanawai a me kana mau kauoha a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oe i keia la, i pomaikai ai oe, a me kau mau keiki mahope ou, a i hooloihi ai oe i na la ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua i haawi mai ai nou i na la a pau loa.
41 Then Moses separated three cities beyond Jordan on the east,
Alaila hookaawale ae la o Mose i na kulanakauhale ekolu ma keia aoao o Ioredane ma ka hiki ana o ka la;
42 that the slayer might flee there, who should have slain his neighbor unintentionally, and should not have hated him in times past, and he shall flee to one of these cities and live:
I holo ai ka pepehi kanaka malaila, ka mea i pepehi i kona hoalauna me ka ike ole, aole i inaina aku ia ia mamua; a i kona holo ana i kekahi o keia mau kulanakauhale, e ola ia:
43 Bosor in the wilderness, in the plain country of Ruben, and Ramoth in Galaad [belonging to] Gad, and Gaulon in Basan [belonging to] Manasse.
O Bezera ma ka waonahele i ka aina papu o ka Reubena; a o Ramota ma Gileada o ka Gada; a o Golana ma Basana o ka Manase.
44 This [is] the law which Moses set before the children of Israel.
A o keia ke kanawai a Mose i waiho ai imua o na mamo a Iseraela:
45 These [are] the testimonies, and the ordinances, and the judgments, which Moses spoke to the sons of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt:
Oia na kauoha a me na kanawai, a me na olelo kupaa a Mose i olelo mai ai i na mamo a Iseraela, mahope o ka lakou hele ana mai Aigupita mai;
46 on the other side of Jordan, in the valley near the house of Phogor, in the land of Seon king of the Amorites, who lived in Esebon, whom Moses and the sons of Israel struck when they came out of the land of Egypt.
Ma keia aoao o Ioredane, ma ke awawa e ku pono ana i Betepeora, i ka aina o Sihona, ke alii o ka Amora ka mea i noho ma Hesebona, ka mea a Mose a me na mamo a Iseraela i pepehi ai, mahope o ka puka ana, mai Aigupita mai:
47 And they inherited his land, and the land of Og king of Basan, two kings of the Amorites, who were beyond Jordan eastward.
A lilo kona aina ia lakou, a me ka aina o Oga, ke alii o Basana, na'lii elua o ka Amora, ma keia aoao o Ioredane ma ka hiki ana o ka la:
48 From Aroer, which is on the border of the brook Arnon, even to the mount of Seon, which is Aermon.
Mai Aroera, ma ke kae o ke kahawai o Arenona, a i ka mauna o Ziona, oia hoi o Heremona,
49 All Araba beyond Jordan eastward under Asedoth hewn in the rock.
A o ka papu a pau ma keia aoao o Ioredane ma ka hikina, a hiki i ke kai o ka papu, o kahi haahaa ma ke kumu o Pisega,
