Deuteronomy 18
1 'There is not to the priests the Levites — all the tribe of Levi — a portion and inheritance with Israel; fire-offerings of Jehovah, even His inheritance, they eat,
O NA kahuna, na Levi, o na ohana a pau a Levi, aohe o lakou kuleana, aohe aina hooili me ka Iseraela: e ai no lakou i na mohai no Iehova i puhi i ke ahi, a me ka mea e ili mai ana nona.
2 and he hath no inheritance in the midst of his brethren; Jehovah Himself [is] his inheritance, as He hath spoken to him.
No ia mea, aole o lakou aina hooili iwaena o ko lakou poe hoahanau; o Iehova oia ko lakou hooilina e like me kana i olelo mai ai ia lakou.
3 'And this is the priest's right from the people, from those sacrificing a sacrifice, whether ox or sheep, he hath even given to the priest the leg, and the two cheeks, and the stomach;
Eia ka ke kahuna wahi na na kanaka mai, na ka poe e kaumaha aku i ka mohai, i ka bipikane paha, i ka hipa paha: a e haawi aku lakou i ka uha mua a me na papalina elua, a me ka opu na ke kahuna.
4 the first of thy corn, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the first of the fleece of thy flock, thou dost give to him;
O ka hua mua o kau palaoa, o kou waina, a me kou aila, a o ka hulu ako mua o kau poe hipa, o kau ia e haawi aku ai nana.
5 for on him hath Jehovah thy God fixed, out of all thy tribes, to stand to serve in the name of Jehovah, He and his sons continually.
No ka mea, ua wae mai o Iehova ia ia mailoko mai o kou mau ohana a pau, e ku e lawelawe ma ka inoa o Iehova, oia a me kana mau keiki i na la a pau loa.
6 'And when the Levite cometh from one of thy cities out of all Israel, where he hath sojourned, and hath come with all the desire of his soul unto the place which Jehovah doth choose,
Ina paha e hele mai kekahi o ka Levi mailoko mai o kekahi o kou mau ipuka o ka Iseraela a pau ana i noho malihini ai; a e hele mai ia me ka makemake a pau o kona naau ma kahi a Iehova e wae ai;
7 then he hath ministered in the name of Jehovah his God, like all his brethren, the Levites, who are standing there before Jehovah,
Alaila e lawelawe no ia ma ka inoa o Iehova kona Akua, e like me kona poe hoahanau a pau, o ka Levi e ku ana malaila imua o Iehova.
8 portion as portion they do eat, apart from his sold things, with the fathers.
E hoohalikeia ka lakou mea e ai ai, a o kona waiwai hoi i kuaiia na na makua mai.
9 'When thou art coming in unto the land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee, thou dost not learn to do according to the abominations of those nations:
A hiki aku oe ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi mai ai ia oe, mai ao iho oe e hana e like me na mea haumia o ua mau lahuikanaka la.
10 there is not found in thee one causing his son and his daughter to pass over into fire, a user of divinations, an observer of clouds, and an enchanter, and a sorcerer,
Aole e ikeia iwaena o oukou ka mea nana e kuu aku i kana keikikane a i kana kaikamahine paha e hele mawaena o ke ahi; aole hoi he kahuna anaana, aole he mea nana i ke ao, aole hoi he mea nana moo, aole ka mea kilo;
11 and a charmer, and one asking at a familiar spirit, and a wizard, and one seeking unto the dead.
Aole hoi he mea hoowalewale i na nahesa, aole hoi he mea ninau i na uhane ino, aole hoi he kupua, aole he mea ninau i ka poe make.
12 'For the abomination of Jehovah [is] every one doing these, and because of these abominations is Jehovah thy God dispossessing them from thy presence.
No ka mea, o ka poe a pau e hana ana ia mea, ua haumia lakou imua o Iehova: no keia mau mea hoohaumia, na Iehova kou Akua e kipaku aku ana ia lakou mai kou alo aku.
13 Perfect thou art with Jehovah thy God,
E hemolele oe imua o Iehova kou Akua.
14 for these nations whom thou art possessing, unto observers of clouds, and unto diviners, do hearken; and thou — not so hath Jehovah thy God suffered thee.
No ka mea, o keia mau lahuikanaka e lilo ana nou, ua hoolohe lakou i na mea nana i ke ao, a me na kahuna anaana: aka o oe, aole o Iehova kou Akua i ae mai ia oe e hana pela.
15 'A prophet out of thy midst, out of thy brethren, like to me, doth Jehovah thy God raise up to thee — unto him ye hearken;
E hooku mai auanei o Iehova kou Akua mai waena mai ou i Kaula nou, i kekahi hoahanau on e like me au, e hoolohe oukou ia ia;
16 according to all that thou didst ask from Jehovah thy God, in Horeb, in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not add to hear the voice of Jehovah my God, and this great fire let me not see any more, and I die not;
E like me ka mea a pau na i noi aku ai ia Iehova kou Akua ma Horeba, i ka la i houluulu ai, i ka i ana'ku, Aole au e lohe hou i ka leo o Iehova ko'u Akua, aole hoi au e ike hou i keia ahi nui, o make au.
17 and Jehovah saith unto me, They have done well that they have spoken;
I mai la o Iehova ia'u, He pono ka lakou i olelo mai ai.
18 a prophet I raise up to them, out of the midst of their brethren, like to thee; and I have given my words in his mouth, and he hath spoken unto them all that which I command him;
E hooku auanei au i Kaula no lakou no waena mai o ko lakou poe hoahanau, e like me oe, a e waiho ana au i ka'u mau olelo maloko o kona waha; a nana e olelo aku ia lakou ka mea a pau a'u e kauoha aku ai ia ia.
19 and it hath been — the man who doth not hearken unto My words which he doth speak in My name, I require [it] of him.
A o ke kanaka hoolohe ole i ka'u mau olelo, ana e olelo aku ai ma ko'u inoa, na'u no ia e hoopai aku.
20 'Only, the prophet who presumeth to speak a word in My name — that which I have not commanded him to speak — and who speaketh in the name of other gods — even that prophet hath died.
A o ke kaula e aa ana e olelo aku i kekahi olelo ma ko'u inoa i ka mea a'u i kauoha ole aku ai ia ia e olelo, a e olelo aku paha ia ma ka inoa o na akua e, e make ua kaula la.
21 'And when thou sayest in thy heart, How do we know the word which Jehovah hath not spoken? —
Ina e i iho oe iloko o kou naau, Pehea la makou e ike ai i ka olelo a Iehova i olelo ole mai ai?
22 that which the prophet speaketh in the name of Jehovah, and the thing is not, and cometh not — it [is] the word which Jehovah hath not spoken; in presumption hath the prophet spoken it; — thou art not afraid of him.
A i olelo aku kekahi kaula ma ka inoa o Iehova, a hiki ole mai ia mea, aole hoi ia e ko, oia ka mea a Iehova i olelo ole mai ai; ua olelo aku ua kaula la me ka hookiekie; mai makau aku oe ia ia.
