Deuteronomy 12
1 These are the statutes and the ordinances which you shall observe to do in the land which YHWH, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess it, all the days that you live on the earth.
Tenei ano nga tikanga me nga whakaritenga, hei pupuri ma koutou hei mahi ki te whenua e homai ana e Ihowa, e te Atua o ou matua, ki a koe kia nohoia, i nga ra katoa e ora ai i runga i te whenua.
2 You shall surely destroy all the places in which the nations that you shall dispossess served their gods, on the high mountains, and on the hills, and under every green tree:
Whakamotitia rawatia e koutou nga wahi katoa i mahi ai nga iwi ka riro nei i a koutou ki o ratou atua, i runga i nga maunga teitei, i nga pukepuke hoki, i raro hoki i nga rakau kouru nui katoa:
3 and you shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and burn their Asherim with fire; and you shall cut down the engraved images of their gods; and you shall destroy their name out of that place.
Pakarua a ratou aata, wahia kia kongakonga a ratou pou, ko a ratou Aherimi tahuna e koutou ki te ahi; a tuaina ki raro nga whakapakoko o o ratou atua, a whakangaromia rawatia atu o ratou ingoa i taua wahi.
4 You shall not do so to YHWH your God.
Aua e pena ki a Ihowa, ki to koutou Atua.
5 But to the place which YHWH your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, even to his habitation you shall seek, and there you shall come;
Engari me whai ki tona nohoanga, ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa, to koutou Atua, i roto i o koutou iwi katoa, kia waiho tona ingoa ki reira, me haere hoki koe ki reira:
6 and there you shall bring your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the wave offering of your hand, and your vows, and your freewill offerings, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock:
A me kawe e koutou ki reira a koutou tahunga tinana, a koutou patunga tapu, a koutou whakatekau, nga whakahere e hapahapainga ana e o koutou ringa, a koutou ki taurangi, a koutou whakahere tuku noa, me nga whanau matamua o a koutou kau, o a kouto u hipi:
7 and there you shall eat before YHWH your God, and you shall rejoice in all that you put your hand to, you and your households, in which YHWH your God has blessed you.
A ko reira koutou kai ai, ko te aroaro o Ihowa, o to koutou Atua, a ka koa koutou ki nga mea katoa e whatoro atu ai o koutou ringa, koutou me o koutou whare, ki nga manaaki a Ihowa, a tou Atua, i a koe.
8 You shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every man whatever is right in his own eyes;
Kei rite ta koutou mahi ki enei katoa e mahia nei e tatou i konei i tenei ra, he tika tonu ia tangata ki tana titiro ake:
9 for you haven't yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which YHWH your God gives you.
Kahore nei hoki koutou kia tae noa ki te okiokinga, ki te kainga tupu e homai ana e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe.
10 But when you go over the Jordan, and dwell in the land which YHWH your God causes you to inherit, and he gives you rest from all your enemies around you, so that you dwell in safety;
Engari ki te whiti koutou i Horano, a ka noho ki te whenua e homai ana e Ihowa, e to koutou Atua, hei kainga tupu mo koutou, a ka meinga e ia kia okioki i o koutou hoa whawhai katoa i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, a ka noho koutou i runga i te whe nua rangatira;
11 then it shall happen that to the place which YHWH your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there, there you shall bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the wave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which you vow to your God.
Katahi ka ai te wahi e whiriwhiria e Ihowa, e to koutou Atua, ki reira tona ingoa noho ai, hei kawenga ma koutou i nga mea katoa e whakahaua nei e ahau ki a koutou; a koutou tahunga tinana, a koutou patunga tapu, a koutou whakatekau, me nga whak ahere hapahapai a o koutou ringa, me nga mea papai katoa o nga mea i kiia taurangitia e koutou ma Ihowa:
12 You shall rejoice before YHWH your God, you, and your sons, and your daughters, and your male servants, and your female servants, and the Levite who is within your gates, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
A ka koa koutou ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o to koutou Atua, koutou, a koutou tama, a koutou tamahine, a koutou pononga tane, a koutou pononga wahine, me te Riwaiti i roto i o koutou tatau, kahore hoki ia i rato tahi me koutou i tetahi wahi, i tetahi kainga tupu ranei mona.
13 Be careful that you do not offer your burnt offerings in every place that you see;
Kia mahara kei tukua e koe au tahunga tinana ki nga wahi katoa e kite ai koe:
14 but in the place which YHWH shall choose in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I command you.
Engari hei te wahi e whiriwhiria e Ihowa i roto i te tahi o ou iwi, hei reira koe tuku ai i au tahunga tinana, hei reira hoki koe mea ai i nga mea katoa e whakahau atu nei ahau ki a koe.
15 Notwithstanding, you may kill and eat flesh within all your gates, after all the desire of your soul, according to the blessing of YHWH your God which he has given you: the unclean and the clean may eat of it, as of the gazelle, and as of the deer.
Otiia ka ahei koe te patu, te kai hoki he kikokiko i roto i ou tatau katoa, ki ta te hiahia katoa a tou ngakau, kia rite ki te manaaki a Ihowa, a tou Atua, i homai ai ki a koe: me kai e te poke, e te pokekore, he pera me te kahera, me te hata.
16 Only you shall not eat the blood; you shall pour it out on the earth as water.
Engari ra ia kei kainga e koutou te toto; ringihia atu ki te whenua ano he wai.
17 You may not eat within your gates the tithe of your grain, or of your new wine, or of your oil, or the firstborn of your herd or of your flock, nor any of your vows which you vow, nor your freewill offerings, nor the wave offering of your hand;
E kore koe e tukua kia kai i roto i ou tatau i nga whakatekau o tau witi, o tau waina ranei, o tau hinu ranei, i nga matamua ranei o au kau, o au hipi ranei, i tetahi ranei o nga mea e kiia taurangitia e koe, i au whakahere tuku noa ranei, i nga whakahere hapahapai ranei a tou ringa:
18 but you shall eat them before YHWH your God in the place which YHWH your God shall choose, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your male servant, and your female servant, and the Levite who is within your gates: and you shall rejoice before YHWH your God in all that you put your hand to.
Engari me kai ena ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua, hei te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa, tou Atua, e koe, e tau tama, e tau tamahine, e tau pononga tane, e tau pononga wahine, e te Riwaiti hoki i roto i ou tatau: a ka koa koe ki te aroaro o Ihow a, o tou Atua, ki nga mea katoa e totoro atu ai ou ringa.
19 Be careful that you do not forsake the Levite as long as you live in your land.
Kia tupato kei mahue i a koe te Riwaiti i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe i runga i te whenua.
20 When YHWH your God shall enlarge your border, as he has promised you, and you shall say, "I want to eat meat," because your soul desires to eat meat; you may eat meat, after all the desire of your soul.
E whakanui a Ihowa, tou Atua, i tou rohe, e pera me tana i korero ai ki a koe, a ka mea koe, Ka kai kikokiko ahau, he hiahia hoki no tou ngakau ki te kai kikokiko: e kai koe i te kikokiko, i te hiahia katoa a tou ngakau.
21 If the place which YHWH your God shall choose to put his name there is too far from you, then you shall kill of your herd and of your flock, which God has given you, as I have commanded you; and you may eat within your gates, after all the desire of your soul.
Ki te mamao rawa atu i a koe te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa, tou Atua, kia waiho tona ingoa i reira, na patua tetahi o au kau, o au hipi ranei, kua homai na e Ihowa ki a koe, kia rite ki taku i whakahau ai ki a koe, a ka kai i roto i ou tatau, i ta te hiahia katoa a tou ngakau.
22 Even as the gazelle and as the deer is eaten, so you shall eat of it: the unclean and the clean may eat of it alike.
Kainga ena, peratia me te kahera, me te hata e kainga ana: ko te poke, ko te pokekore, rite tahi raua te kai.
23 Only be sure that you do not eat the blood: for the blood is the life; and you shall not eat the life with the flesh.
Engari ra ia kia tino u koe kia kaua e kainga te toto: ko te toto hoki te ora; kaua hoki e kainga ngatahitia e koe te toto me te kikokiko.
24 You shall not eat it; you shall pour it out on the earth as water.
Kaua tena e kainga e koe; me riringi e koe ki te whenua ano he wai.
25 You shall not eat it; that it may go well with you, and with your children after you, when you shall do that which is right in the eyes of YHWH.
Kei kainga tena e koe; kia whiwhi ai koe ki te pai, koutou ko au tamariki i muri i a koe, ina mahi koe i te mea e tika ana ki ta Ihowa titiro.
26 Only your holy things which you have, and your vows, you shall take, and go to the place which YHWH shall choose,
Ko au mea tapu ia, i a koe na, me au ki taurangi, me tango e koe, ka haere ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa:
27 and you shall offer your burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, on the altar of YHWH your God; and the blood of your sacrifices shall be poured out on the altar of YHWH your God; and you shall eat the flesh.
Na ka tuku mai koe i au tahunga tinana, i te kikokiko me te toto, ki runga ki te aata a Ihowa, a tou Atua: na ko te toto o au patunga tapu me riringi ki runga ki te aata a Ihowa, a tou Atua, ko te kikokiko ia me kai e koe.
28 Observe and hear and do all these words which I command you, that it may go well with you, and with your children after you forever, when you do that which is good and right in the eyes of YHWH your God.
Maharatia, whakarangona enei kupu katoa e whakahau nei ahau ki a koe, kia whiwhi ai koe ki te pai, koutou ko au tamariki i muri i a koe, ake tonu atu, ina mahi koe i te mea e pai ana, e tika ana ki te titiro a Ihowa, a tou Atua.
29 When YHWH your God shall cut off the nations from before you, where you go in to dispossess them, and you dispossess them, and dwell in their land;
Ina huna e Ihowa, e tou Atua, i tou aroaro nga iwi, e haere nei koe ki reira ki te pei, a ka riro ratou i a koe, a ka noho koe ki to ratou whenua;
30 take heed to yourself that you not be ensnared to follow them, after that they are destroyed from before you; and that you not inquire after their gods, saying, "How do these nations serve their gods? I will do likewise."
Kia tupato ki a koe, kei mahangatia koe kia wahi i muri i a ratou, ina whakangaromia atu ratou i tou aroaro; kei ui atu ano hoki koe ki o ratou atua, kei mea, E pehea ana te mahi a enei iwi ki o ratou atua? ka pena ano hoki ahau.
31 You shall not do so to YHWH your God: for every abomination to YHWH, which he hates, have they done to their gods; for even their sons and their daughters do they burn in the fire to their gods.
Kei pera tau mahi ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua: ko nga mea katoa hoki e whakarihariha ai a Ihowa, e kino ai, ko ia ta ratou i mahi ai ki o ratou atua; na, ko a ratou tama nei ano, me a ratou tamahine e tahuna ana e ratou ki te ahi ma o ratou atua.
32 Whatever thing I command you, that you shall observe to do: you shall not add thereto, nor diminish from it.
Ko nga mea katoa e whakahau ai ahau ki a koutou, ko ena ta koutou e mahara ai kia mahia: kaua e tapiritia ki etahi atu, kaua ano hoki e kinitia atu tetahi wahi.
