Numbers 18

1 And Jehovah saith unto Aaron, 'Thou, and thy sons, and the house of thy father with thee, do bear the iniquity of the sanctuary; and thou, and thy sons with thee, do bear the iniquity of your priesthood;

I mea ano a Ihowa ki a Arona, Mau, ma au tama, ma koutou ko te whare o tou papa e waha te kino o te wahi tapu: a ma koutou ko au tama e waha te kino o ta koutou mahi tohunga.

2 and also thy brethren, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy father, bring near with thee, and they are joined unto thee, and serve thee, even thou and thy sons with thee, before the tent of the testimony.

A ko ou teina hoki, o te iwi o Riwai, o te iwi o tou papa, me whakatata tahi me koe, kia tapiritia ai ratou ki a koe, hei minita ki a koe: ko koutou tahi ia ko au tama hei te tapenakara o te whakaaturanga.

3 'And they have kept thy charge, and the charge of all the tent; only, unto the vessels of the sanctuary and unto the altar they do not come near, and they die not, either they or you;

A ma ratou tau mahi e tiaki, me te mahi tiaki o te tapenakara katoa: otiia kaua e whakatata ki nga oko o te wahi tapu, ki te aata ranei, kei mate ko ratou, ko koutou ranei.

4 and they have been joined unto thee, and have kept the charge of the tent of meeting, for all the service of the tent; and a stranger doth not come near unto you;

A ka tapiritia ratou ki a koe, hei tiaki i nga mea o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, mo nga mahi katoa o te tapenakara: kaua hoki te tangata ke e tata ki a koutou.

5 and ye have kept the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar, and there is no more wrath against the sons of Israel.

Ma koutou hoki e tiaki nga mea o te wahi tapu, me nga mea o te aata; kei puta he riri ki nga tama a Iharaira a muri ake nei.

6 'And I, lo, I have taken your brethren the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel; to you a gift they are given by Jehovah, to do the service of the tent of meeting;

Me ahau hoki, nana, kua tango ahau i o koutou teina, i nga Riwaiti i roto i nga tama a Iharaira: he mea hoatu ki a koutou ma Ihowa, hei mahi i nga mahi o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga.

7 and thou, and thy sons with thee, do keep your priesthood, for everything of the altar, and within the vail, and ye have served; a service of gift I make your priesthood; and the stranger who is coming near is put to death.'

Ko koutou ia ko au tama, kia mau ki ta koutou mahi tohunga ki nga mea katoa o te aata, o roto atu ano hoki i te arai, hei mahi ma koutou: he mea hoatu noa atu ta koutou mahi tohunga e hoatu nei e ahau: a ka whakamatea te tangata ke e whakatata ma i ana.

8 And Jehovah speaketh unto Aaron: 'And I, lo, I have given to thee the charge of My heave-offerings, of all the hallowed things of the sons of Israel — to thee I have given them for the anointing, and to thy sons, by a statute age-during.

I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Arona, Na kua tukua atu nei e ahau ki a koe te tiaki o aku whakahere hapahapai, o nga mea tapu katoa a nga tama a Iharaira; he mea hoatu naku ki a koutou ko au tama, he whakaaro hoki ki te whakawahinga, he tikanga pumau.

9 This is thine of the most holy things, from the fire: all their offering, to all their present, and to all their sin-offering, and to all their guilt-offering, which they give back to Me, is most holy to thee, and to thy sons;

Ko nga mea tenei mau o nga mea tino tapu e kore nei e tukua ki te ahi: ko a ratou whakahere katoa, ko a ratou whakahere totokore katoa, me a ratou whakahere hara katoa, me a ratou whakahere katoa mo te he, e tapaea ki ahau; ka tino tapu ma koutou ko au tama.

10 in the holy of holies thou dost eat it; every male doth eat it; holy it is to thee.

Hei te wahi tino tapu kai ai, ma nga tane katoa e kai: he tapu tena mau.

11 'And this [is] thine: the heave-offering of their gift, to all the wave-offerings of the sons of Israel, to thee I have given them, and to thy sons, and to thy daughters with thee, by a statute age-during; every clean one in thy house doth eat it;

Mau ano tenei; ko nga whakahere hapahapai e homai ana e ratou me nga whakahere poipoi katoa a nga tama a Iharaira: kua hoatu aua mea e ahau ki a koe, ki a koutou ko au tama, ko au tamahine, he tikanga pumau: e kainga tena e nga mea pokekore kato a o tou whare.

12 all the best of the oil, and all the best of the new wine, and wheat — their first -[fruits] which they give to Jehovah — to thee I have given them.

Ko nga wahi papai katoa o te hinu, me nga wahi papai katoa o te waina, o te witi hoki, ko nga tuapora o aua mea e homai ana ki a Ihowa, kua hoatu ena e ahau ki a koe.

13 'The first-fruits of all that [is] in their land, which they bring in to Jehovah, are thine; every clean one in thy house doth eat it;

Mau nga hua mataati o nga mea katoa o te whenua, e kawea mai ana ki a Ihowa; me kai e nga mea pokekore katoa o tou whare.

14 every devoted thing in Israel is thine,

Mau nga mea katoa i oti rawa i roto i a Iharaira.

15 every one opening a womb of all flesh which they bring near to Jehovah, among man and among beast, is thine; only, thou dost certainly ransom the first-born of man, and the firstling of the unclean beast thou dost ransom.

Ko nga mea katoa e oroko puta mai ana i te kopu o nga kikokiko katoa, ko nga mea hoki e whakaherea ana ma Ihowa, o te tangata, o te kararehe, mau ena: otiia me tino whakahoki atu e koe ki te utu nga matamua a te tangata, me tango utu ano mo nga matamua a te kararehe poke.

16 'And their ransomed ones from a son of a month, thou dost ransom with thy valuation, of silver, five shekels, by the shekel of the sanctuary, twenty gerahs it [is].

A, ko nga mea e utua ana e whakahokia ana, ka kotahi marama o tona whanautanga, me tango ona utu; kia rite ki tau e whakarite ai, kia rima hekere nga moni: hei nga hekere wahi tapu, e rua tekau nei nga kera.

17 'Only, the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, thou dost not ransom, holy they [are]: their blood thou dost sprinkle on the altar, and of their fat thou makest perfume, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah,

Ko te matamua ia a te kau, me te matamua a te hipi, me te matamua a te koati, kaua e whakahokia atu e koe; he tapu ena: me tauhi e koe o ratou toto ki te aata, me tahu ano o ratou ngako hei whakahere ahi, hei kakara reka ki a Ihowa.

18 and their flesh is thine, as the breast of the wave-offering, and as the right leg, it is thine;

A mau o ratou kikokiko, ka pera me te uma poipoi, me te huha matau, nau hoki ena.

19 all the heave-offerings of the holy things which the sons of Israel lift up to Jehovah I have given to thee and to thy sons, and to thy daughters with thee, by a statute age-during, a covenant of salt, age-during it [is] before Jehovah, to thee and to thy seed with thee.'

Ko nga whakahere hapahapai katoa o roto o nga mea tapu e tapaea ana e nga tama a Iharaira ki a Ihowa, kua hoatu e ahau ki a koutou ko au tama, ko au tamahine; hei tikanga pumau: hei kawenata tote i te aroaro o Ihowa ake ake, ki a koutou tahi ko ou uri.

20 And Jehovah saith unto Aaron, 'In their land thou dost not inherit, and a portion thou hast not in their midst: I [am] thy portion, and thine inheritance in the midst of the sons of Israel;

A i korero a Ihowa ki a Arona, Kahore he kainga tupu mou i to ratou whenua, kahore ano hoki he wahi mou i roto i a ratou: ko ahau te wahi mou, tou kainga tupu i roto i nga tama a Iharaira.

21 and to the sons of Levi, lo, I have given all the tenth in Israel for inheritance in exchange for their service which they are serving — the service of the tent of meeting.

Kua hoatu nei hoki e ahau ki nga tama a Riwai nga whakatekau katoa i roto i a Iharaira hei taonga tupu, hei utu mo ta ratou mahi e mahi ai ratou, mo te mahinga i te tapenakara o te whakaminenga.

22 'And the sons of Israel come no more near unto the tent of meeting, to bear sin, to die,

Kaua ano hoki nga tama a Iharaira e whakatata a muri ake nei ki te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, kei whai hara, kei mate.

23 and the Levites have done the service of the tent of meeting, and they — they bear their iniquity; a statute age-during to your generations, that in the midst of the sons of Israel they have no inheritance;

Ma nga Riwaiti ia e mahi nga mahi o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, me waha ano hoki e ratou to ratou kino; hei tikanga pumau ia ma o koutou whakatupuranga, kia kahore he kainga tupu mo ratou i roto i nga tama a Iharaira.

24 but the tithe of the sons of Israel which they lift up to Jehovah, a heave-offering, I have given to the Levites for inheritance; therefore I have said of them, In the midst of the sons of Israel they have no inheritance.'

Ko nga whakatekau hoki a nga tama a Iharaira, e tapaea nei hei whakahere hapahapai ki a Ihowa, kua hoatu e ahau hei wahi tupu ki nga Riwaiti; koia ahau i mea ai ki a ratou, e kore ratou e whai kainga tupu i roto i nga tama a Iharaira.

25 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,

26 'And unto the Levites thou dost speak; and thou hast said unto them, When ye take from the sons of Israel the tithe which I have given to you from them, for your inheritance, then ye have lifted up from it the heave-offering of Jehovah, a tithe of the tithe;

Korero ano ki nga Riwaiti, mea atu ki a ratou, Ka tangohia e koutou nga whakatekau a nga tama a Iharaira e hoatu nei e ahau ki a koutou i roto i a ratou mea hei wahi tupu mo koutou, me tapae he whakahere hapahapai ki a Ihowa i roto i taua mea, h e wahi whakatekau o aua whakatekau.

27 and your heave-offering hath been reckoned to you as corn from the threshing-floor, and as fulness from the wine-vat;

A ka kiia tenei whakahere hapahapai he mea na koutou, he pera me te witi o te patunga witi, me te purenatanga hoki o te poka waina.

28 so ye do lift up — ye also — the heave-offering of Jehovah from all your tithes which ye receive from the sons of Israel; and ye have given from it the heave-offering of Jehovah to Aaron the priest;

Na me tapae ano hoki e koutou he whakahere hapahapai ki a Ihowa i roto i a koutou whakatekau katoa e tangohia ana e koutou i nga tama a Iharaira; me homai te whakahere hapahapai a Ihowa i roto i taua mea ki te tohunga, ki a Arona.

29 out of all your gifts ye do lift up the whole heave-offering of Jehovah; out of all its fat, — its hallowed part — out of it.

Me tapae nga whakahere hapahapai katoa ma Ihowa i roto i nga mea katoa e homai ana ki a koutou, i roto i nga mea papai katoa o ena, ara te wahi tapu o roto.

30 'And thou hast said unto them, In your lifting up its fat out of it, then it hath been reckoned to the Levites, as increase of a threshing-floor, and as increase of a wine-vat;

Me ki atu ki a ratou, Ka hapahapai koutou i te wahi tino pai o taua mea, me ki tena he mea na nga Riwaiti, he pera me te hua o te patunga witi, me te purenatanga hoki o te poka waina.

31 and ye have eaten it in every place, ye and your households, for it [is] your hire in exchange for your service in the tent of meeting;

A me kai tena e koutou ko o koutou whare ki nga wahi katoa: ko to koutou utu hoki ia mo ta koutou mahi i te tapenakara o te whakaminenga.

32 and ye bear no sin for it, in your lifting up its fat out of it, and the holy things of the sons of Israel ye do not pollute, and ye die not.'

A e kore e waha e koutou he hara i reira, ina hapahapainga tona wahi pai: kaua ano e whakapokea nga mea tapu a nga tama a Iharaira, kei mate koutou.
