Deuteronomy 1

1 These are the words that Moses spoke to all Israel beyond the Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain of the Jordan River valley over against Suph, between Paran, Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Dizahab.

Ko nga kupu enei i korero ai a Mohi ki a Iharaira katoa i tenei taha o Horano, i te koraha, i te mania, i te ritenga atu o Tupu, i waenganui o Parana, o Topera, o Rapana, o Hateroto, o Rihahapa.

2 It is eleven days' journey from Horeb by the way of Mount Seir to Kadesh Barnea.

Kia kotahi tekau ma tahi nga ra e haere atu ana i Horepa, ki te tika na maunga Heira, ka tae ai ki Kareheparena.

3 It happened in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spoke to the people of Israel, telling them all that Yahweh commanded him concerning them.

No te wha tekau o nga tau, no te tekau ma tahi o nga marama, no te ra tuatahi o te marama, ka korerotia e Mohi ki nga tama a Iharaira nga mea katoa i ako ai a Ihowa ki a ia mo ratou;

4 This was after Yahweh had attacked Sihon the king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, who lived in Ashtaroth at Edrei.

I muri i tana patunga i a Hihona kingi o nga Amori, i noho ra i Hehepona, i a Oka hoki kingi o Pahana, i noho ra i Ahataroto, i Eterei.

5 Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, Moses began to announce these instructions, saying,

I timata a Mohi i tenei taha o Horano, i te whenua o Moapa, te kauwhau i tenei ture: i mea ia,

6 “Yahweh our God spoke to us at Horeb, saying, 'You have lived long enough in this hill country.

I korero mai a Ihowa, to tatou Atua, ki a tatou i Horepa, i mea, Ka roa to koutou noho ki tenei maunga:

7 Turn and take your journey, and go to the hill country of the Amorites and to all the places near there in the plain of the Jordan River valley, in the hill country, in the lowland, in the Negev, and by the seashore—the land of the Canaanites, and in Lebanon as far as the great river, the Euphrates.

Anga atu, hapainga atu, haere ki te maunga o nga Amori, ki nga wahi katoa hoki e tata ana ki reira, o te mania, o nga pukepuke, o te raorao, o te tonga, o te tahatika ano o te moana, ki te whenua o nga Kanaani, ki Repanona, ki te awa nui ano, ki te awa, ki Uparati.

8 Look, I have set the land before you; go in and possess the land that Yahweh swore to your fathers—to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob—to give to them and to their descendants after them.'

Nana, kua tukua atu nei e ahau te whenua ki to koutou aroaro: haere ki roto, tangohia te whenua i oati ai a Ihowa ki o koutou matua, ki a Aperahama, ki a Ihaka, ki a Hakopa kia hoatu mo ratou, mo to ratou uri hoki i muri i a ratou.

9 I spoke to you at that time, saying, 'I am not able to carry you myself alone.

I korero ano ahau ki a koutou i taua wa, i mea, E kore e ahei ko ahau anake hei pikau i a koutou:

10 Yahweh your God has multiplied you, and, look, you are today as the multitude of the stars of heaven.

Kua whakanui a Ihowa, to koutou Atua, i a koutou, a tenei koutou te rite nei inaianei ki nga whetu o te rangi te tini.

11 May Yahweh, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times as many as you are, and bless you, as he has promised you!

Ma Ihowa, ma te Atua o o koutou matua, e tapiri ano a muri i a koutou ki nga mano tini atu i a koutou e noho nei, mana koutou e manaaki, e pera ano me tana i korero ai ki a koutou!

12 But how can I myself alone carry your loads, your burdens, and your disputes?

Me pehea e taea ai e ahau anake ta koutou whakararu, to koutou whakataimaha, me ta koutou ngangau?

13 Take wise men, understanding men, and men of good repute from each tribe, and I will make them heads over you.'

Whakaritea mai e koutou etahi tangata tupato, whai whakaaro, e mohiotia ana e o koutou iwi, a maku ratou e mea hei upoko mo koutou.

14 You answered me and said, 'The thing that you have spoken is good for us to do.'

Na ka utu koutou ki ahau, ka mea, He mea pai tau e ki mai na kia meatia.

15 So I took the heads of your tribes, wise men, and men of good repute, and made them heads over you, captains of thousands, captains of hundreds, captains of fifties, captains of tens, and officers, tribe by tribe.

Na ka tango ahau i nga upoko o o koutou iwi, i nga mea whakaaro, e mohiotia ana, a meatia iho ratou e ahau hei upoko mo koutou, hei rangatira mo nga mano, hei rangatira mo nga rau, hei rangatira mo nga rima tekau, hei rangatira mo nga tekau, hei kaiwhakahauhau hoki mo o koutou iwi.

16 I commanded your judges at that time, saying, 'Hear the disputes between your brothers, and judge righteously between a man and his brother, and the foreigner who is with him.

I ki ano ahau i taua wa ki o koutou kaiwhakawa, i mea, Whakarangona nga kupu a o koutou teina, a tetahi, a tetahi, kia tika te whakawa mo te tangata, mo tona teina, mo te tangata ke hoki e noho ana i a ia.

17 You will not show partiality to anyone in a dispute; you will hear the small and the great alike. You will not be afraid of the face of man, for the judgment is God's. The dispute that is too hard for you, you will bring to me, and I will hear it.'

Kei whakaaro ki te kanohi ina whakawa, kia rite ta koutou whakarongo ki te iti, ki te rahi; kei wehi koutou i te kanohi tangata; no te mea na te Atua te whakawa; a, ko te mea e ngaro ana i a koutou, ka kawe mai ki ahau, a maku e whakarongo.

18 I commanded you at that time all the things that you should do.

A whakahaua ana e ahau i reira nga mea katoa e mahi ai koutou.

19 We journeyed away from Horeb and went through all that great and terrible wilderness that you saw, on our way to the hill country of the Amorites, as Yahweh our God had commanded us; and we came to Kadesh Barnea.

A ka turia mai e tatou i Horepa, na haerea katoatia ana e tatou taua koraha nui, e wehingia ana, i kite ra koutou i te ara o te whenua maunga o nga Amori; i pera me ta Ihowa, me ta to tatou Atua, i ako mai ai ki a tatou; na ka tae atu ki Karehep arenea.

20 I said to you, 'You have come to the hill country of the Amorites, which Yahweh our God is giving to us.

Na ka mea ahau ki a koutou, Kua tae mai nei koutou ki te whenua maunga o nga Amori, ka homai nei e Ihowa, e to tatou Atua, ki a tatou.

21 Look, Yahweh your God has set the land before you; go up, take possession, as Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has spoken to you; do not be afraid, neither be discouraged.'

Nana, ka tukua nei te whenua e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki tou aroaro: haere ki runga, tangohia, kia rite ai ki ta Ihowa, ki ta te Atua o ou matua, i ki ai ki a koe; kaua e wehi, kaua hoki e pawera.

22 Every one of you came to me and said, 'Let us send men ahead of us, so that they may search out the land for us, and bring us word about the way by which we should attack, and about the cities to which we will come.'

Na ka whakatata mai koutou katoa ki ahau, ka mea, Kia tono tatou i etahi ki mua i a tatou, a ko ratou hei titiro i to tatou whenua, hei whakahoki mai i te korero ki a tatou, mo te huarahi e haere ai tatou ki runga, mo nga pa hoki ka haere atu ne i tatou ki reira.

23 The advice pleased me well; I took twelve men of you, one man for every tribe.

A i pai ano taua kupu ki ahau: na ka tango ahau i etahi tangata kotahi tekau ma rua i roto i a koutou, tataki kotahi o tenei iwi, o tenei iwi.

24 They turned and went up into the hill country, came to the Valley of Eshkol, and scouted it.

A ka tahuri ratou, ka piki ki te maunga, a ka tae ki te awaawa o Ehekora, ka tirotiro hoki a taua wahi.

25 They took some of the produce of the land in their hands and brought it down to us. They also brought us word and said, 'It is a good land that Yahweh our God is giving to us.'

A ka tango ratou i etahi o nga hua o te whenua ki o ratou ringa, a maua ana ki raro, ki a tatou, i whakahoki ake ano ratou i te kupu ki a tatou, i mea, He pai te whenua ka homai nei e Ihowa, e to tatou Atua, ki a tatou.

26 Yet you refused to attack, but rebelled against the commandment of Yahweh your God.

Heoi kihai koutou i pai ki te haere ki runga; na ka tutu ki te kupu a Ihowa, a to koutou Atua:

27 You complained in your tents and said, “It is because Yahweh hated us that he has brought us out of the land of Egypt, to give us into the hand of the Amorites to destroy us.

A amuamu ana i roto i o koutou teneti, mea ana, He kino no Ihowa ki a tatou i whakaputaina mai ai tatou e ia i te whenua o Ihipa, kia hoatu ai tatou ki te ringa o nga Amori, kia huna ai tatou.

28 Where can we go now? Our brothers have made our heart to melt, saying, 'Those people are bigger and taller than we are; their cities are large and are fortified up to the heavens; moreover, we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.'”

Kia haere tatou ki runga ki hea? kua ngohe nei hoki o tatou ngakau i ta o tatou tuakana, e mea ra, He nunui te iwi, he roroa i a tatou; ko nga pa he nui, taiepa rawa a tutuki noa ki te rangi: i kite ano hoki matou i nga tama a nga Anakimi ki rei ra.

29 Then I said to you, 'Do not be terrified, neither be afraid of them.

Na ka mea ahau ki a koutou, Kei pawera, kei wehi i a ratou.

30 Yahweh your God, who goes before you, he will fight for you, like everything that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes,

Ko Ihowa, ko to koutou Atua, te haere nei i mua i a koutou, mana ta koutou pakanga; ka rite ki nga mea katoa i mea ai ia mo koutou ki to koutou aroaro i Ihipa;

31 and also in the wilderness, where you have seen how Yahweh your God carried you, as a man carries his son, everywhere you went until you came to this place.'

I te koraha ano, i kite ra koe i reira i ta Ihowa, i ta tou Atua wahanga i a koe, ano he tangata e waha ana i tana tamaiti, i te ara katoa i haere na koutou, a tae noa mai ki tenei wahi.

32 Yet in spite of this word you did not believe Yahweh your God,

I tenei mea ano, kihai koutou i whakapono ki a Ihowa, ki to koutou Atua,

33 who went before you on the way to find a place for you to make camp, in fire by night and in a cloud by day.

I haere ra i mua i a koutou i te ara, hei whakataki i tetahi wahi mo koutou, e tu ai o koutou teneti, i te po i roto i te ahi, hei whakaatu ki a koutou i te ara e haere ai koutou, a i roto i te kapua i te awatea.

34 Yahweh heard the sound of your words and was angry; he swore and said,

A ka rongo a Ihowa i o koutou reo e korero ana, na ka riri, ka oati, ka mea,

35 'Surely not one of these men of this evil generation will see the good land that I swore to give to your ancestors,

E kore rawa tetahi o enei tangata o tenei whakatupuranga kino e kite i taua whenua pai i oati ai ahau kia hoatu ki o koutou matua,

36 save Caleb son of Jephunneh; he will see it. To him I will give the land that he has stepped on, and to his children, because he has wholly followed Yahweh.'

Heoi ano ko Karepe, ko te tama a Iepune, e kite ia; a ka hoatu e ahau ki a ia, ki ana tama hoki, te whenua i haerea e ia, mona i tino whai a Ihowa.

37 Also Yahweh was angry with me because of you, saying, 'You also will not go in there;

A i riri ano a Ihowa ki ahau, mo koutou hoki, i mea mai, E kore ano kore e tae ki reira.

38 Joshua son of Nun, who stands before you, he will go in there; encourage him, for he will lead Israel to inherit it.

Ko Hohua, ko te tama a Nunu, e tu ana i tou aroaro, e tae ia ki reira: whakatenatenangia ia; ta te mea mana a Iharaira e whakawhiwhi ki tera wahi.

39 Moreover, your little children, the ones you said would be victims, who today have no knowledge of good or evil—they will go in there. To them I will give it, and they will possess it.

Na, ko a koutou potiki, i mea na koutou ka waiho hei parau, me a koutou tama kihai nei i mohio i taua ra ki te pai, ki te kino, e tae ratou ki reira, ka hoatu ano e ahau a reira ki a ratou, a e whiwhi ratou ki tera whenua.

40 But as for you, turn and take your journey into the wilderness along the way to the Sea of Reeds.'

Ko koutou ia, tahuri atu, haere ki te koraha, na te huarahi ki te Moana Whero.

41 Then you answered and said to me, 'We have sinned against Yahweh; we will go up and fight, and we will follow all that Yahweh our God has commanded us to do.' Every man among you put on his weapons of war, and you were ready to attack the hill country.

Na ka utu koutou, ka mea mai ki ahau, Kua hara matou ki a Ihowa; ka haere matou ki runga, ki te whawhai, kia rite ai nga mea katoa i whakahau mai ai a Ihowa, to tatou Atua, ki a tatou. A whitikiria ano e koutou, e tera, e tera, ana mea mo te rir i, na ka mea koutou ki te piki ki te maunga.

42 Yahweh said to me, 'Say to them, “Do not attack and do not fight, for I will not be with you, and you will be defeated by your enemies.'

Katahi ka mea a Ihowa ki ahau, Mea atu ki a ratou, Kaua e haere, kaua ano e tu ki te riri; kahore hoki ahau i roto i a koutou; kei patua ki te aroaro o o koutou hoariri.

43 I spoke to you in this way, but you did not listen. You rebelled against the commandment of Yahweh; you were arrogant and attacked the hill country.

Na ka korero ahau ki a koutou; a kihai koutou i rongo, heoi, ka tutu koutou ki te kupu a Ihowa, na hikaka ana koutou, piki ana ki te maunga.

44 But the Amorites, who lived in that hill country, came out against you and chased you like bees, and struck you down in Seir, as far as Hormah.

Na ka puta nga Amori, e noho ana i taua maunga, ki te tu i a koutou, a whai ana i a koutou, ano he pi, patua iho koutou i Heira, a taea noatia a Horema.

45 You returned and wept before Yahweh; but Yahweh did not listen to your voice, nor did he pay attention to you.

Na ka hoki koutou, ka tangi ki te aroaro o Ihowa; otiia kihai a Ihowa i whakarongo ki to koutou reo, kihai ano i anga tona taringa ki a koutou.

46 So you stayed in Kadesh many days, all the days that you stayed there.

Na ka noho koutou ki Karehe, a maha noa nga ra, nga ra hoki i noho ai koutou.
