< Deuteronomy 7 >

1 “When your God YHWH brings you into the land to where you are going in to possess it, and He has cast out many nations from your presence, the Hittite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, seven nations more numerous and mighty than you,
A IA kai aku o Iehova kou Akua ia oe i ka aina au e hele aku nei e noho ilaila, a hookuke aku ia i na lahuikanaka, he nui mamua ou, i ka Heta, i ka Giregasa, me ka Amora, me ka Kanaana, me ka Periza, me ka Heva, a me ka Iebusa, i ehiku lahuikanaka, ua oi aku ko lakou nui a me ko lakou ikaika i kou;
2 and your God YHWH has given them before you, then you have struck them—you utterly devote them—you do not make a covenant with them, nor do you favor them.
A hoolilo mai o Iehova kou Akua ia lakou imua ou; alaila e pepehi aku oe ia lakou, a pau lakou i ka make; mai hookuikahi oe me lakou; a mai aloha aku ia lakou:
3 And you do not join in marriage with them; you do not give your daughter to his son, and you do not take his daughter to your son,
Mai hoopalau hoi me lakou; mai haawi i kau kaikamahine na kana keikikane; mai lawe oe i kana kaikamahine na kau keikikane.
4 for he turns aside your son from after Me, and they have served other gods; and the anger of YHWH has burned against you and has destroyed you quickly.
No ka mea, e hoohuli ae lakou i kau keiki, i ole ia e hahai mai ia'u, i malama aku lakou i na akua e: pela e hoaaia mai ai ka inaina o Iehova ia oukou, a e luku koke mai ia oe.
5 But thus you do to them: you break down their altars, and you shatter their standing pillars, and you cut down their Asherim, and you burn their carved images with fire.
Penei oukou hana aku ai ia lakou; e hoohiolo oukou i ko lakou mau kuahu, e wawahi iho i ko lakou poe kii, e kua ilalo i ko lakou mau kii o Asetarota, a e puhi aku i ko lakou mau kiikalaiia i ke ahi.
6 For you [are] a holy people to your God YHWH; your God YHWH has fixed on you, to be to Him for a peculiar people, out of all the peoples who [are] on the face of the ground.
No ka mea, he poe kanaka laa oukou no Iehova kou Akua: na Iehova na kou Akua i wae mai ia oukou, i poe kanaka ponoi nona, mamua o na kanaka a pau maluna o ka honua.
7 YHWH has delighted in you and fixes on you, not because of your being more numerous than any of the peoples, for you [are] the least of all the peoples,
Aole o Iehova i aloha mai ia oukou, a i wae mai ia oukou, no ka oi o ko oukou nui i ko na kanaka e ae a pau; no ka mea, he poe uuku oukou i na kanaka a pau:
8 but because of YHWH’s loving you, and because of His keeping the oath which He has sworn to your fathers; YHWH has brought you out by a strong hand, and ransoms you from a house of servants, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
Aka, no ke aloha o Iehova ia oukou, a no kona malama i ka hoohiki ana i hoohiki ai i ko oukou poe kupuna; nolaila i kai mai nei o Iehova ia oukou me ka lima ikaika, a e hoopakele ia oukou mai ka hale hooluhi mai, mailoko mai o ka lima o Parao, ke alii o Aigupita.
9 And you have known that He, your God YHWH, [is] God, the faithful God keeping the covenant and the kindness with those loving Him and with those keeping His commands, for one thousand generations,
E ike hoi oe, o Iehova kou Akua, oia no ke Akua, he Akua oiaio, e malama ana i ka berita, a i ke aloha no ka poe i aloha aku ia ia, a malama hoi i kana mau kauoha, a hiki i ke tausani o na hanauna:
10 and repaying to those hating Him to their face, to destroy them; He does not delay to him who is hating Him, He repays [it] to him to his face.
A e hoopai koke ana hoi i ka poe inaina ia ia, e luku ia lakou, aole ia e lohi i ka mea inaina ia ia, e hoopai koke ana no ia ia.
11 And you have kept the command, and the statutes, and the judgments, which I am commanding you today to do them.
Nolaila, e malama oe i na kauoha a me na kanawai, a me na olelo kupaa a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oe i keia la, a e hana hoi ia mea.
12 And it has been, because you hear these judgments, and have kept and done them, that your God YHWH has kept the covenant and the kindness with you which He has sworn to your fathers,
No ia hoi, ina e hoolohe oukou i keia mau olelo kupaa, a e malama, a e hana hoi ia mau mea, alaila e malama mai o Iehova kou Akua i ka berita a me ke aloha nou, ana i hoohiki ai i kou poe kupuna.
13 and has loved you, and blessed you, and multiplied you, and has blessed the fruit of your womb, and the fruit of your ground, your grain, and your new wine, and your oil, the increase of your oxen, and the wealth of your flock, on the ground which He has sworn to your fathers to give to you.
A e aloha mai ia ia oe a e hoopomaikai mai ia oe, a e hoomahuahua mai ia oe: e hoopomaikai mai hoi ia i ka hua o kou opu, a me ka hua o kou aina, i kau palaoa a me kou waina, a me kou aila, a me ka hanau ana o kou poe bipi, a me kau poe hipa, ma ka aina ana i hoohiki ai i kou mau kupuna e haawi mai ia oe.
14 Blessed are you above all the peoples; there is not a barren man or a barren woman in you—nor among your livestock;
E oi aku kou hoopomaikaiia mamua o ko ua kanaka a pau: aole he kane keiki ole, aole he wahine pa iwaena o oukou, aole hoi iwaena o na holoholona a oukou.
15 and YHWH has turned aside every sickness from you, and none of the evil diseases of Egypt (which you have known) does He put on you, and He has put them on all hating you.
A e lawe aku o Iehova i na mai a pau mai ou aku nei, aole hoi ia e kau i kekahi mai ahulau o Aigupita maluna iho ou, au i ike ai; aka, e kau aku kela ia mea maluna iho o ka poe a pau e inaina mai ia oe.
16 And you have consumed all the peoples whom your God YHWH is giving to you; your eye has no pity on them, and you do not serve their gods, for it [is] a snare to you.
A e hoopau aku oe i na kanaka a pau a Iehova kou Akua e hoolilo mai nou; mai minamina aku kou maka ia lakou, mai malama hoi oe i ko lakou mau akua; no ka mea, e lilo ia i mea hihia nou.
17 When you say in your heart, These nations [are] more numerous than I, how am I able to dispossess them?
Ina paha e i iho oe maloko o kou naau, Ua oi aku ka nui o keia mau lahuikanaka i ko'u; pehea la e hiki ia'u ke kipaku aku ia lakou?
18 You are not afraid of them; you surely remember that which your God YHWH has done to Pharaoh and to all of Egypt,
Mai makau oe ia lakou; e hoomanao pono oe i ka mea a Iehova kou Akua i hana'i ia Parao, a me ko Aigupita a pau:
19 the great trials which your eyes have seen, and the signs, and the wonders, and the strong hand, and the outstretched arm, with which your God YHWH has brought you out; so does your God YHWH do to all the peoples of whose presence you are afraid.
I na hoao nui a kou maka i ike ai, a me na hoailona, a me na mea kupanaha, a me ka lima ikaika, a me ka lima kakauha a Iehova kou Akua i lawe mai nei ia oe; pela no o Iehova kou Akua e hana aku ai i na kanaka a pau au e makau nei.
20 And your God YHWH also sends the locust among them, until the destruction of those who are left, even those who are hidden from your presence;
A e hoouna aku hoi o Iehova kou Akua i ka nalohopeeha iwaena o lakou, a pau lakou i ka lukuia, ka poe i waihoia, a me ka poe i pee mai ou aku la.
21 you are not terrified by their presence, for your God YHWH [is] in your midst, a God great and fearful.
Mai makau oe ia lakou; no ka mea, iwaena ou o Iehova kou Akua, he Akua nui, hooweliweli.
22 And your God YHWH has cast out these nations from your presence little [by] little (you are not able to consume them quickly, lest the beast of the field multiplies against you),
A e kipaku liilii aku o Iehova kou Akua i kela mau luhuikanaka mamua ou: mai luku koke aku ia lakou a pau, o nui mai auanei na holoholona e alo mai ia oe.
23 and your God YHWH has given them before you, and confused them [with] a great destruction until their being destroyed;
A o Iehova kou Akua e hoolilo mai ia lakou imua ou, a e luku aku ia lakou me ka luku nui, a pau lakou i ka make.
24 and He has given their kings into your hand, and you have destroyed their name from under the heavens; no man stations himself in your presence until you have destroyed them.
A e hoolilo mai ia i ko lakou mau alii iloko o kou lima, a e hokai oe i ko lakou inoa malalo iho o ka lani; aole e hiki i kekahi kanaka ke ku imua ou, a pau lakou i ka lukuia e oe.
25 You burn the carved images of their gods with fire; you do not desire the silver and gold on them, nor have you taken [it] for yourself, lest you are snared by it, for it [is] an abomination [to] your God YHWH;
O na kii o ko lakou mau akua e puhi oukou i ke ahi; mai kuko aku oe i ke kala a i ke gula maluna o ia mea, aole hoi e lawe ia mea nau, o hihia auanei oe ilaila; no ka mea, he mea hoowahawahaia e Iehova kou Akua.
26 and you do not bring in an abomination to your house, or you have been devoted like it—you utterly detest it and you utterly abhor it; for it [is] devoted.”
Aole hoi e lawe oe maloko o kou hale i ka mea hoowahawahaia, o lilo auanei oe i mea laa e like me ia; e hoowahawaha loa aku oe ia mea, a e hoopailua loa aku oe ia mea; no ka mea, he mea laa ia.
