Exodus 32
1 When the people saw that Moses delayed coming down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together to Aaron, and said to him, “Come, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.”
A, no te kitenga o te iwi i roa te hekenga iho o Mohi i runga i te maunga, ka huihui te iwi ki a Arona, ka mea ki a ia, Whakatika, hanga etahi atua mo tatou, hei haere i mua i a tatou; ko tenei Mohi hoki, ko te tangata nana tatou i kawe mai ki ru nga nei i te whenua o Ihipa, kahore tatou e mohio kua ahatia ranei ia.
2 Aaron said to them, “Take off the golden rings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them to me.”
Na ka mea a Arona ki a ratou, Whakiia mai nga whakakai koura i nga taringa o a koutou wahine, o a koutou tama, o a koutou tamahine, ka kawe mai ki ahau.
3 All the people took off the golden rings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron.
Na whakiia ana e te iwi katoa nga whakakai koura i o ratou taringa, a kawea ana mai ki a Arona.
4 He received what they handed him, fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made it a molded calf. Then they said, “These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.”
Na ka tangohia e ia i o ratou ringa, a whakaahuatia ana e ia ki te purupuru tana kuao kau i whakarewa ai: na ka mea ratou, Ko ou atua enei, e Iharaira, nana nei koe i kawe mai ki runga nei i te whenua o Ihipa.
5 When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made a proclamation, and said, “Tomorrow shall be a feast to Yahweh.”
A, no te kitenga o Arona, hanga ana e ia tetahi aata ki mua i taua mea; a ka karanga a Arona, ka mea, Ko apopo he hakari ki a Ihowa.
6 They rose up early on the next day, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
Na ka maranga wawe ratou i te aonga ake, a whakaekea ana he tahunga tinana, i kawea ano he whakahere mo te pai; na ka noho te iwi ki te kai, ki te inu, a ka whakatika ki te takaro.
7 Yahweh spoke to Moses, “Go, get down; for your people, whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves!
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Haere, heke atu, kua he hoki tou iwi i kawea mai nei e koe i te whenua o Ihipa:
8 They have turned away quickly out of the way which I commanded them. They have made themselves a molded calf, and have worshiped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said, ‘These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.’”
Kua hohoro ratou te peka ke i te huarahi i kiia e ahau ki a ratou: kua hanga ma ratou he kuao kau, he mea whakarewa, kua koropiko ki taua mea, kua patu whakahere mana, a e mea ana, Ko ou atua enei, e Iharaira, i kawea mai ai koe i te whenua o Ihi pa.
9 Yahweh said to Moses, “I have seen these people, and behold, they are a stiff-necked people.
I mea ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Kua kite ahau i tenei iwi, na, he iwi kaki maro ratou:
10 Now therefore leave me alone, that my wrath may burn hot against them, and that I may consume them; and I will make of you a great nation.”
Na, tukua atu ahau, a ka mura toku riri ki a ratou, a ka pau ratou i ahau: ka hanga ano koe hei iwi nui.
11 Moses begged Yahweh his God, and said, “Yahweh, why does your wrath burn hot against your people, that you have brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?
Na ka inoi a Mohi ki a Ihowa, ki tona Atua, ka mea, He aha tou riri i mura ai, e Ihowa, ki tau iwi i kawea mai nei e koe i te whenua o ihipa i runga i te kaha nui, i te ringa maro?
12 Why should the Egyptians talk, saying, ‘He brought them out for evil, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the surface of the earth’? Turn from your fierce wrath, and turn away from this evil against your people.
Ha, kia korero nga Ihipiana, kia mea, He whakaputanga atu ki te he tana i a ratou, kia whakamatea ai ratou ki nga maunga, kia whakangaromia atu ai i te mata o te whenua? Tahuri i tou riri nui e mura nei, kia puta ke hoki tou whakaaro ki tenei ki no mo tau iwi.
13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self, and said to them, ‘I will multiply your offspring as the stars of the sky, and all this land that I have spoken of I will give to your offspring, and they shall inherit it forever.’”
Kia mahara ki au pononga, ki a Aperahama, ki a Ihaka, ki a Iharaira, ki tau oatitanga hoki i a koe ki a ratou, ki tau meatanga ki a ratou, Ka whakanuia e ahau o koutou uri kia rite ki nga whetu o te rangi; ko tenei whenua katoa hoki i korerotia atu nei e ahau, ka hoatu e ahau ki o koutou uri, a ka nohoia e ratou ake ake.
14 So Yahweh turned away from the evil which he said he would do to his people.
Na ka puta ke ta Ihowa i whakaaro ai mo te kino i kiia e ia kia meatia ki tana iwi.
15 Moses turned, and went down from the mountain, with the two tablets of the covenant in his hand; tablets that were written on both their sides. They were written on one side and on the other.
Na ka tahuri a Mohi, ka heke iho i te maunga, me nga papa e rua o te whakaaturanga i tona ringa: he mea tuhi nga taha e rua o nga papa; i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha te tuhi.
16 The tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tablets.
He mea mahi hoki na te Atua aua papa, me te tuihituhi hoki, na te Atua te tuhituhi, he mea whaowhao ki nga papa.
17 When Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, “There is the noise of war in the camp.”
A ka rongo a Hohua i te reo o te iwi e hamama ana, ka mea ki a Mohi, He nge whawhai kei te puni ra.
18 He said, “It isn’t the voice of those who shout for victory. It is not the voice of those who cry for being overcome; but the noise of those who sing that I hear.”
Na ka mea ia, Ehara tera reo i te hamama mo te hinganga o te taua, ehara hoki tera reo i te hamama o te hunga e hinga ana: he reo waiata taku e rongo nei.
19 As soon as he came near to the camp, he saw the calf and the dancing. Then Moses’ anger grew hot, and he threw the tablets out of his hands, and broke them beneath the mountain.
A ka tata ia ki te puni, na, ka kite ia i te kuao kau, i te kanikani: na ka mura te riri o Mohi, a ka maka atu e ia nga papa i roto i ona ringa, a pakarua ana aua mea e ia i raro i te maunga.
20 He took the calf which they had made, and burned it with fire, ground it to powder, and scattered it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink it.
Na ka tango ia i te kuao kau i hanga e ratou, a tahuna ana e ia ki te ahi, a hurihia ana a ngotangota noa, a ruiruia ana e ia ki te wai, whakainumia atu ana ma nga tama a Iharaira.
21 Moses said to Aaron, “What did these people do to you, that you have brought a great sin on them?”
Na ka mea a Mohi ki a Arona, I aha tenei iwi ki a koe, i takina ai e koe tenei hara nui ki a ratou?
22 Aaron said, “Don’t let the anger of my lord grow hot. You know the people, that they are set on evil.
A ka mea a Arona, Kei mura mai te riri o toku ariki: e mohio ana koe ki tenei iwi, mo te kino tonu ratou.
23 For they said to me, ‘Make us gods, which shall go before us. As for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.’
I mea hoki ratou ki ahau, Hanga etahi atua mo tatou hei haere i mua i a tatou: ko tenei Mohi hoki, ko te tangata nana nei tatou i kawe mai i te whenua o Ihipa, kahore tatou e mohio kua ahatia ranei ia.
24 I said to them, ‘Whoever has any gold, let them take it off.’ So they gave it to me; and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf.”
Na ka mea ahau ki a ratou, Ki te mea he koura to tetahi, whakiia mai. Na ka homai e ratou ki ahau: a maka ana e ahau ki te ahi; a puta ake ko te kuao kau nei.
25 When Moses saw that the people were out of control, (for Aaron had let them lose control, causing derision among their enemies),
A, i te kitenga o Mohi i te iwi e korara noa ana, na Arona hoki ratou i tuku kia korara, hei taunu ma o ratou hoariri:
26 then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, “Whoever is on Yahweh’s side, come to me!” All the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.
Na, ka tu a Mohi ki te kuwaha o te puni, ka mea, Ko wai to Ihowa? haere mai ki ahau. Na ka huihui nga tama katoa a Riwai ki a ia.
27 He said to them, “Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘Every man put his sword on his thigh, and go back and forth from gate to gate throughout the camp, and every man kill his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.’”
Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, Whakanohoia e tera, e tera, tana hoari ki tona huha, a haere atu, hoki mai, i tetahi kuwaha ki tetahi kuwaha, i waenga puni, a patua e tera tona teina, e tera tona hoa, e t era tona hoa e noho tata ana.
28 The sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses. About three thousand men fell of the people that day.
Na rite tonu ki te kupu a Mohi ta nga tama a Riwai i mea ai: a tata tonu ki te toru mano nga tangata i hinga i taua rangi.
29 Moses said, “Consecrate yourselves today to Yahweh, for every man was against his son and against his brother, that he may give you a blessing today.”
Na Mohi hoki i mea, Hei runga i tana tama, i tona teina, te whakatohungatanga ki a Ihowa o tera, o tera, o koutou aianei; kia homai ai e ia he manaaki ki a koutou aianei.
30 On the next day, Moses said to the people, “You have sinned a great sin. Now I will go up to Yahweh. Perhaps I shall make atonement for your sin.”
Na, i te aonga ake, ka mea a Mohi ki te iwi, Kua hara koutou, he nui te hara: na, me haere ahau aianei ki runga, ki a Ihowa; tera pea e taea e ahau te whakamarie mo to koutou hara.
31 Moses returned to Yahweh, and said, “Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made themselves gods of gold.
Na ka hoki a Mohi ki a Ihowa, ka mea, Aue! kua hara tenei iwi, he nui te hara, kua hanga hoki e ratou etahi atua koura mo ratou.
32 Yet now, if you will, forgive their sin—and if not, please blot me out of your book which you have written.”
Na, mau e horoi to ratou hara; a ki te kahore, tena ra, horoia atu ahau i roto i tau pukapuka i tuhituhia e koe.
33 Yahweh said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against me, I will blot him out of my book.
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Ko te tangata e hara ana ki ahau, ka horoia atu ia e ahau i roto i taku pukapuka.
34 Now go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you. Behold, my angel shall go before you. Nevertheless, in the day when I punish, I will punish them for their sin.”
Na haere ra, arahina atu te iwi ki te wahi i korerotia atu e ahau ki a koe: tena taku anahera te haere atu na i mua i a koe; ahakoa ra, ko a te ra e mea ai ahau, ina, ka meinga e ahau to ratou hara kia tau ki runga ki a ratou.
35 Yahweh struck the people, because of what they did with the calf, which Aaron made.
Na ka whiua e Ihowa te iwi mo ta ratou hanganga i te kuao kau, i hanga nei e Arona.
