< Deuteronomy 23 >

1 “Any man whose testicles are crushed or whose penis is cut off shall not be (included as one of/allowed to worship with) Yahweh’s people.
A OLE e komo iloko o ke anainakanaka o Iehova ke kanaka i paopaoia a i okiia kona mea huna.
2 “No (illegitimate person/person whose mother and father were not married), or descendant of that person, extending to the tenth generation, shall be included as one of Yahweh’s people.
Aole e komo iloko o ke anainakanaka o Iehova ka mea poo ole, a hiki i ka umi o kona hanauna aole e komo iloko o ke anainakanaka o Iehova.
3 “No one from the Ammon or Moab people-groups shall be (included as one of/allowed to worship with) Yahweh’s people, extending to the tenth generation.
Aole e komo iloko o ke anainakanaka o Iehova ka Amora, a me ka Moaba, a hiki i ka umi o ko lakou hanauna, aole loa e komo iloko o ke anainakanaka o Iehova:
4 One reason is that their [leaders] refused to give your ancestors food and water when they were traveling from Egypt [to Canaan]. Another reason is that they wanted to pay Balaam, the son of Beor from Pethor [town] in Mesopotamia, to curse you Israelis.
No ka mea, aole lakou i hele mai io oukou la me ka berena a me ka wai ma ke ala i ko oukou hele ana, mai Aigupita mai; a no ka lakou uku ana'ku ia Balaama, ke keiki a Beora o Petora ma Mesopotamia e ku o ia oukou, a e hoino aku ia oukou.
5 But Yahweh our God did not pay attention to Balaam; instead, he caused Balaam to bless your ancestors, because Yahweh loved them.
Aole nae o Iehova kou Akua i hoolohe ia Balaama; aka, ua hoohuli ae o Iehova kou Akua i ka hoino i hoomaikai nou; no ka mea, ua aloha o Iehova kou Akua ia oe.
6 As long as Israel is a nation, you must not do anything to cause things to go well for those two people-groups or enable them to prosper.
Mai imi oe i ko lakou malu, aole hoi i ko lakou pono i kou mau la a pau.
7 “But do not despise anyone from the Edom people-group, because they are [descendants of your ancestor Jacob], just like you are. And do not despise people from Egypt, because [they treated your ancestors well when] they first lived in Egypt.
Mai hoowahawaha oe i ka Edoma, no ka mea, oia kou hoahanau: mai hoowahawaha i ko Aigupita, no ka mea, ua malihini oe ma kona aina.
8 The children and grandchildren of people from Edom and Egypt [who live among you] may be (included among/allowed to worship with) Yahweh’s people.”
O na keiki i hanau na lakou i ka hanauna ekolu, e komo lakou iloko o ke anainakanaka o Iehova.
9 “When your soldiers are living in tents at a time of fighting your enemies, they must avoid doing things that would make them unacceptable to God.
A hele aku ka poe kaua e ku e i kou poe enemi, e malama ia oe iho i na mea ino a pau.
10 If any soldier becomes unacceptable to God because semen comes out of his body during the night, [the next morning] he must go outside the camp and stay there during that day.
Ina paha mawaena ou kekahi kanaka maemae ole no ka haumia i hiki mai ia ia i ka po, e hele ia iwaho o kahi e hoomoana'i, aole ia e hele mai iloko o kahi e hoomoaua'i:
11 But in the evening of that day, he must bathe himself, and at sunset he is allowed to come back into the camp.
Aia i ka manawa e hiki mai ana ke ahiahi, e holoi ia ia iho i ka wai; a i ka napo ana o ka la, e hele mai ia iloko o kahi e hoomoana'i.
12 “Your soldiers must have a toilet area outside the camp where you can go [when you need to].
A e hookaawale oe i kauwahi nou mawaho o kahi hoomoana, i hele aku ai oe malaila:
13 [When you go to fight against your enemies], carry a stick along with your weapons, in order that when you need to defecate [EUP], you can dig a hole with the stick, and then cover up the hole [when you have finished defecating].
A i wahi oo nou kekahi mea kaua, a i kou hoomaha ana mawaho, e kohi iho oe me ia, a e huli hou no e kanu oe i ka mea e puka aku ana mailoko ou.
14 You must keep the camp acceptable to Yahweh our God, because he is with you in your camp to protect you and to enable you to defeat your enemies. Do not do anything disgraceful/indecent that would cause Yahweh to abandon you.”
No ka mea, e hele ana o Iehova kou Akua iwaena o kou wahi o hoomoana'i e hoopakele ia oe, a e hoolilo i kou poe enemi imua ou: nolaila, i maemae kou wahi e hoomoana'i, o ike mai auanei ia i ka mea ino iloko ou, a huli ae ia mai ou aku la.
15 “If slaves who escape from their masters come to you [and request you to protect them], do not send them back to their masters.
O ke kauwa i mahuka mai kona haku a i ou la, mai hoihoi aku oe ia ia i kona haku:
16 Allow them to stay/live among you, in whatever town they choose, and do not mistreat them.
E noho no ia me oe, mawaena ou, ma kahi ana e wae ai, ma kekahi o kou mau ipuka ana e makemake ai: mai hookaumaha oe ia ia.
17 “Do not [allow] any Israeli man or woman [to] become a prostitute at the temple.
Aole e noho kekahi o na kaikamahine o ka Iseraela i ka moe kolohe, Aole e noho hoi kekahi o na keikikane o ka Iseraela i ka moe kolohe.
18 Also, do not allow any people who earned money from being a prostitute to bring any of that money into the temple of Yahweh our God, even if they solemnly promised to pay that money to Yahweh. Yahweh hates those who are prostitutes.
Mai lawe oe iloko o ka hale o Iehova kou Akua i ka uku no ka wahine moe kolohe, aole hoi i ke kumukuai no ka ilio, no kekahi hoohiki ana; no ka mea, ua hoowahawahaia ia mau mea elua e Iehova kou Akua.
19 “When you lend money or food or anything else to a fellow Israeli, do not charge them interest.
Mai haawi aie aku na kou hoahanau, no ka uku kuala hou ia mai, i uku kuala no ke kala, a i ukn kuala no ka ai, a i uku kuala no kekahi mea i haawi aie ia'ku no ka ukn hou ia mai.
20 You are allowed to charge interest when you lend money to foreigners [who live in your land], but not when you lend money to Israelis. Do this in order that Yahweh our God will bless you in everything that you do in the land that you are about to enter and occupy.
E pono e haawi aie aku i ke kanaka e i uku hoopanee mai; aka, mai haawi aie i kou hoahanau, i uku nui mai; i hoopomaikai mai ai o Iehova o kou Akua ia oe i na mea a pau a kou lima e lawe ai ma ka aina au e hele aku nei e hooliloia nou.
21 “When you vow to give something to Yahweh your God [or to do something for him], do it as soon as you can. Yahweh expects you to do what you promised, and if you do not do it, you will be committing a sin.
Aia hoohiki oe i ka hoohiki ana ia Iehova kou Akua, mai hookaulua oe i ka hooko aku ia; no ka mea, e hoopai io mai o Iehova kou Akua ia mea maluna ou, a e lilo ia i hewa nou.
22 But if you [SYN] do not vow [to do something], that is not sinful.
Aka, ina aole oe e hoohiki, aole e lilo ia i hewa nou.
23 But if you voluntarily promise to do something, you must do it.
O ka mea a kou lehelehe i olelo aku ai e malama oe, a e hana hoi e like me kau i hoohiki ai ia Iehova kou Akua, i ka mohaialoha a kou waha i olelo aku ai.
24 “When you walk through someone else’s vineyard, you are allowed to [pick and] eat as many grapes as you want, but you must not [cut some from a vine and carry them away] in a container.
Ina paha e hele oe ma ka malawaina o kou hoalauna, e ai iho oe i na hua waina, a maona oe e like me kou makemake; aka, mai waiho i kekahi iloko o kau ipu.
25 When you walk [along a path] in someone else’s field of grain, you are allowed to pluck/pick some of the grain and eat it, but you must not cut any grain with a sickle [and take it with you].”
A i komo oe iloko o ka mala palaoa a kou hoalauna e ku ana, e lalau oe i ka hua ai me kou lima; aka, mai hookomo i ka pahikakiwi iloko o ka mala palaoa a kou hoalauna e ku ana.
