< Deuteronomy 12 >

1 These [are] the statutes and the judgments which you will take care! to observe in the land which he has given Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your to you to take possession of it all the days which you [are] alive on the land.
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 Certainly you will destroy! all the places where they have served there the nations whom you [are] about to dispossess them gods their on the mountains high and on the hills and under every tree luxuriant.
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 will break down altars their and you will shatter sacred pillars their and Asherah poles their you will burn! with fire and [the] images of gods their you will cut down! and you will destroy name their from the place that.
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 Not you will do! thus to Yahweh God your.
Aua e pena ki a Ihowa, ki to koutou Atua.
5 That except to the place where he will choose Yahweh God your from all tribes your to put name his there to dwelling its you will resort and you will go there towards.
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 you will bring there towards burnt offerings your and sacrifices your and tithes your and [the] contribution of hand your and votive offerings your and freewill offerings your and [the] firstborn of herd[s] your and flock[s] your.
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 you will eat there before Yahweh God your and you will rejoice in every undertaking of hand your you and households your which he has blessed you Yahweh God your.
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 Not you must do! according to all that we [are] doing here this day everyone all the right in own eyes his.
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 not you have come until now to the resting place and to the inheritance which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to 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 And you will pass over the Jordan and you will dwell in the land which Yahweh God your [is] giving as an inheritance you and he will give rest to you from all enemies your from round about and you will dwell security.
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 And it will be the place which he will choose Yahweh God your it to cause to dwell name his there there towards you will bring all that I [am] commanding you burnt offerings your and sacrifices your tithes your and [the] contribution of hand your and all [the] choicest of votive offerings your which you will vow to Yahweh.
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 And you will rejoice before Yahweh God your you and sons your and daughters your and [male] servants your and female servants your and the Levite who [is] in gates your for not [belongs] to him a portion and an 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 Take heed to yourself lest you should offer up burnt offerings your in every place which you will see.
Kia mahara kei tukua e koe au tahunga tinana ki nga wahi katoa e kite ai koe:
14 That except in the place which he will choose Yahweh in one of tribes your there you will offer up burnt offerings your and there you will do all that I [am] commanding 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 Only in all [the] desire of self your you will slaughter - and you will eat meat according to [the] blessing of Yahweh God your which he has given to you in all gates your the unclean and the clean he will eat it like gazelle and like 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 the blood not you must eat on the ground you will pour out it like water.
Engari ra ia kei kainga e koutou te toto; ringihia atu ki te whenua ano he wai.
17 Not you will be able to eat in gates your [the] tithe of grain your and new wine your and fresh oil your and [the] firstborn of herd your and flock your and all votive offerings your which you will vow and freewill offerings your and [the] contribution of hand your.
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 That except before Yahweh God your you will eat it in the place which he will choose Yahweh God your it you and son your and daughter your and [male] servant your and female servant your and the Levite who [is] in gates your and you will rejoice before Yahweh God your in every undertaking of hand your.
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 Take heed to yourself lest you should neglect the Levite all days your on land your.
Kia tupato kei mahue i a koe te Riwaiti i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe i runga i te whenua.
20 If he will enlarge Yahweh God your territory your just as he spoke to you and you will say I want to eat meat for it will desire appetite your to eat meat in all [the] desire appetite your you will eat meat.
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 it will be [too] far for you the place where he will choose Yahweh God your to put name his there and you will slaughter some of herd your and some of flock your which he has given Yahweh to you just as I commanded you and you will eat in gates your in all [the] desire of self your.
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 Surely just as it is eaten the gazelle and the deer so you will eat it the unclean and the clean alike he will eat it.
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 strong to not to eat the blood for the blood it [is] the life and not you must eat the life with the meat.
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 Not you must eat it on the ground you will pour out it like water.
Kaua tena e kainga e koe; me riringi e koe ki te whenua ano he wai.
25 Not you must eat it so that it may go well for you and for children your after you for you will do the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh.
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 holy things your which they will belong to you and votive offerings your you will take and you will go to the place which he will choose Yahweh.
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 will make burnt offerings your the flesh and the blood on [the] altar of Yahweh God your and [the] blood of sacrifices your it will be poured out on [the] altar of Yahweh God your and the flesh you will eat.
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 Take care and you will hear all the words these which I [am] commanding you so that it may go well for you and for children your after you until perpetuity for you will do the good [thing] and the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh God your.
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 If he will cut off Yahweh God your the nations where you [are] about to go there towards by dispossessing them from before you and you will dispossess them and you will dwell in land their.
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 lest you should be ensnared after them after have been destroyed they from before you and lest you should enquire of gods their saying how? do they serve the nations these gods their so I may do thus also I.
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 Not you will do thus to Yahweh God your for every abomination of Yahweh which he hates they have done to gods their for also sons their and daughters their they burn with fire to gods their.
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 Every word which I [am] commanding you it you will take care to do not you must add to it and not you must 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.
