Deuteronomy 14
1 “We are people who belong to Yahweh our God. So, when people die, do not show that you are grieving by gashing/cutting yourselves or by shaving the hair on your foreheads [like the other people-groups do].
HE poe keiki oukou na Iehova ko oukou Akua: mai okioki oukou ia oukou iho, aole hoi oukou e ako i ke oho mawaena o na maka o oukou no ka mea i make.
2 We belong to Yahweh alone. Yahweh chose us from all the other people-groups on the earth to be his special people.
No ka mea, he poe oukou i hoolaaia no Iehova no ko oukou Akua, a na Iehova oukou i wae mai i kanaka ponoi nona, mamua o na lahuikanaka a pau maluna o ka honua.
3 “Do not eat anything that [Yahweh] detests.
Mai ai oe i kekahi mea i hoowahawahaia.
4 The animals [whose meat] you are permitted to eat are cattle, sheep, goats,
Eia na holoholona a oukou e ai ai: o ka bipi, o ka hipa a me ke kao,
5 deer, gazelles, wild goats, antelopes, and mountain sheep.
O ka dea hihiu, o ka dea, o ka dea ulaula, o ke kao hihiu, o ka disona, o ka bipi hihiu, a me ke kao o ka waonahele.
6 Those are animals that have split hoofs and that also (chew their cuds/regurgitate their food [from their stomachs] to chew it again).
A o na holoholona maiuu mahele, elua manamana o ka mahele ana, a hoolualuai a nau hou i ka ai mawaena o na holoholona; oia ka oukou e ai ai.
7 But there are other animals that chew their cuds that you must not eat. Those are camels, rabbits, and rock badgers. They chew their cuds, but their hooves are not split. So they are not acceptable for you to eat.
Aka, aole oukou e ai i keia mau mea o na holoholona hoolualuai a nau hou i ka ai, a o ka mea maiuu mahele: o ke kamelo, o ka hare, a me ke kone; no ka mea, ua hoolualuai lakou, a nau hou i ka ai aole nae i mahele i ka maiuu; ua haumia lakou ia oukou.
8 Do not eat pigs. They are unacceptable for you to eat; their hooves are split, but they do not chew cud. Do not eat the meat of those animals; do not even touch their dead bodies.
A o ka puaa, no ka mea, ua mahele ia i ka maiuu, aole nae ia i hoolualuai a nau hou i ka ai, ua haumia oia ia oukou: mai ai oukou i ko lakou io, mai hoopa aku oukou i ko lakou kino i make.
9 You are permitted to eat any fish that has scales and fins.
O keia ka oukou e ai ai, o na mea a pau iloko o na wai: o na mea halo a me na mea unahi a pau, o ka oukou ia e ai.
10 But anything else [that lives in the water] that does not have scales and fins, you must not eat, because [if you eat them], you will become unacceptable [to Yahweh].
A o na mea halo ole a pau, a me na mea unahi ole, aole oukou e ai ia mea; ua haumia ia ia oukou.
11 “You are permitted to eat the flesh of any bird that is acceptable [to Yahweh].
O na manu maemae a pau, o ka oukou ia e ai ai.
12 But eagles, vultures, black vultures,
Eia na mea aole oukou e ai: o ka aeto, o ka osiferaga, o ka osepera;
13 buzzards, all kinds of kites,
O ke korenisa, o ka aeselona, o ka vuletura eleele, a me ka mea like;
14 all kinds of crows,
O na koraka a pau a me kona mea like;
15 ostriches, seagulls,
O ka ulula, o ke tama, o ka laru, o ka nisu a me kona mea like;
16 owls, hawks, falcons,
O ka bubo, o ka pueo, o ka noketura;
17 pelicans, vultures that eat dead animals, cormorants,
O ka pelikana, o ka vuletura keokeo, o ke katarakete;
18 storks, herons, hoopoes, and bats, you must not eat.
O ke kikonia, o ka aredea e like me kona ano iho, o ka upupa, a me ka opeapea.
19 “All insects with wings [and which walk on the ground] are unacceptable [to Yahweh]; do not eat them.
O na mea kolo a pau e lele ana, ua haumia ia ia oukou; mai ai oukou ia mau mea.
20 But other insects with wings [and which hop along the ground] are acceptable to eat.
O na manu maemae a pau, o ka oukou ia e ai ai.
21 “Do not eat any animal that has died naturally, [because its blood has not been drained out]. You may allow foreigners who live among you to eat those things or you may sell them to other foreigners. But you belong to Yahweh our God; [and those who belong to him are not permitted to eat the meat of animals whose blood has not been drained out]. “You must not cook a young sheep or goat in its mother’s milk.”
Mai ai oukou i kekahi mea make wale: e haawi aku na ke kanaka e iloko o kou mau ipuka, i ai iho ai oia ia mea; a e kuai aku paha ia mea i ka malihini: no ka mea, he poe kanaka oukou i hoolaaia no Iehova kou Akua. Mai hoolapalapa oe i ke keikikao iloko o ka waiu o kona makuwahine.
22 “Once each year you must set apart (a tithe/10 percent) of all the crops that are produced/harvested in your fields.
E hookupu oe i ka hapaumi o kau hua a pau a ka mahinaai i hua mai ai i kela makahiki i keia makahiki.
23 Take those things to the place that Yahweh our God will choose [for you to worship him]. There eat the tithes of your grain, your wine, your [olive] oil, and the meat of the firstborn male animals of your cattle and your sheep. Do this in order that you may learn to always revere Yahweh, [the one who has blessed you by giving you these things].
A e ai oe imua o Iehova kou Akua, ma kahi ana i wae ai e hoopaa i kona inoa malaila, i ka hapaumi o kau palaoa, a me kou waina, a me kou aila, a me na hanau mua o kau poe bipi, a me kau poe hipa, i ao iho ai oe e makau ia Iehova kou Akua i na la a pau.
24 If the place that Yahweh has chosen [for you to worship him] is very far from your home, with the result that you are not able to take there the tithes [of your crops] with which Yahweh has blessed you, do this:
Ina paha loihi ke ala ia oe, aole e hiki ia oe ke lawe aku ia mea malaila; a i mamao aku paha ia oe ka wahi a Iehova kou Akua i wae ai e hoopaa i kona inoa malaila; no ka mea, ua hoopomaikai o Iehova kou Akua ia oe;
25 Sell [IDM] the tithes of your crops, wrap the money carefully [in a cloth], and take it with you to the place of worship that Yahweh has chosen.
Alaila e hoolilo aku oe ia i mea kala, a e hoopaa iho i ke kala ma kou lima, a hele aku ma kahi a Iehova kou Akua i wae ai:
26 There, [with that money], you may buy whatever you want to—beef or lamb or wine or fermented drinks. And there, in the presence of Yahweh, you and your families should eat [and drink] those things and be happy.
A e hoolilo aku oe i ua kala la no ua mea a pau a kou naau i makemake ai, no ka bipi paha, a no ka hipa, a no ka waina paha, a no ka mea inu awaawa paha, a no ka mea a pau a kou naau e imi ai; a e ai iho oe malaila imua o Iehova kou Akua, a e olioli oe a me kou ohua.
27 But be sure to not neglect/forget [to help] the descendants of Levi who live in your towns, because they will not own any land.
A o ka Levi ma kou ipuka, mai hoopoina oe ia ia: no ka mea, aohe ona kuleana, aohe ona aina hooili me oe.
28 “At the end of every three years, bring a tithe of all your crops that have been produced/harvested in that year and store it in your towns.
I ka hope o na makahiki ekolu, e lawe mai oe i ka hapaumi a pau o kau mea i loaa i ua makahiki la, a e waiho ia mea iloko o kou mau ipuka.
29 That food is for the descendants of Levi, because they do not have their own land, and for foreigners [who live among you], and for orphans and widows who live in your towns. They are permitted to come [to where the food is stored] and take what they need. Do that in order that Yahweh our God will bless you in everything that you do.”
A o ka Levi, (no ka mea, aohe ona kuleana, aohe ona aina hooili me oe, ) a o ka malihini, a o ka mea makua ole, a me ka wahinekanemake iloko o kou mau ipuka, o lakou ke hele mai, a e ai a maona; i hoopomaikai ai o Iehova kou Akua ia oe ma na hana a pau a kou lima e lawe ai.
