Kanawailua 12
1 EIA na kanawai a me na olelo kupaa a oukou e malama pono ai ma ka aina a Iehova ke Akua o ko oukou mau kupuna e haawi mai ia oukou e noho, i na la a pau o ko oukou ola ana maluna o ka honua.
These are the rules and regulations you must make sure to follow the whole time you live in the land that the Lord, the God of your forefathers, has given you to own.
2 E luku loa aku oukou i na wahi a pau, kahi a na lahuikanaka i hooliloia no oukou, i malama'i i ko lakou mau akua, maluna o na mauna kiekie, a me na puu, a malalo o na laau uliuli.
You are to completely destroy all the pagan shrines where the nations you're driving out worshiped their gods: on the top of high mountains, on the hills, and under every green tree.
3 E hookahuli oukou i ko lakou mau kuahu, a e wawahi i ko lakou kii, a e puhi i ko lakou mau kii o Asetarota i ke ahi, a e kua ilalo i na kii kalaiia o ko lakou mau akua, a e hokai i ko lakou inoa mai keia wahi aku.
Tear down their altars, knock down their idolatrous pillars, burn down their Asherah poles, and cut down the idols of their gods. Remove any trace of them from everywhere.
4 Mai hana oukou pela ia Iehova ko oukou Akua.
You are not to worship the Lord your God in the way that they did.
5 Aka, ma kahi a Iehova ko oukou Akua e wae ai noloko mai o ko oukou mau ohana, a waiho i kona inoa malaila, ma kona hale, malaila oukou e imi ai, a malaila e hele ai.
No, you must go to the place the Lord your God will choose from the territory of all your tribes to set up a place where he will live with you. That's where you must go.
6 A malaila oukou e lawe aku ai i ka oukou mau mohaikuni, a me ka oukou alana, a me na hapaumi o ko oukou waiwai, a me na mohaihoali a ko oukou lima, a me ko oukou hoohiki ana, a me ka oukou mohaialoha, a me na hanau mua o ka oukou bipi a me ka oukou hipa.
You'll take there your burnt offerings and sacrifices, your tithes and all your offerings—your freewill offerings and offerings to fulfill a promise, along with the firstborn of your herds and flocks.
7 A malaila oukou e ai ai imua o Iehova ko oukou Akua; a e olioli oukou ma na mea a pau a ko oukou lima i lawe ai, o oukou, a me ko oukou poe ohua, no ka mea, ua hoopomaikai o Iehova kou Akua ia oe.
That's where, in the presence of the Lord your God, you and your families will eat and celebrate everything you've worked for, because the Lord your God has blessed you.
8 Mai hana oukou e like me na mea a pau o kakou i keia la, o kela kanaka keia kanaka ma ka mea pono i kona maka iho.
You're not to do like we're doing here today. At the moment everyone does what they think is right,
9 No ka mea, aole oukou i hiki aku i keia manawa ma kahi e maha'i, a ma ka noho ana a Iehova ko oukou Akua e haawi mai ia oukou.
because you haven't arrived in the land you will own that the Lord your God is giving you and where you will be at peace.
10 Aia hele oukou ma kela kapa o Ioredane, a noho oukou ma ka aina a Iehova ko oukou Akua e hoolilo mai ai no oukou, a haawi mai ia i ka maha no oukou i ko oukou poe enemi a puni, a noho oukou me ka maluhia;
After you cross the Jordan and settle down in the country that the Lord your God is giving you to possess, and he lets you rest from fighting all your enemies and you live in safety,
11 Alaila ma kahi a Iehova ko oukou Akua e wae ai i wahi e hoopaa ai i kona inoa, malaila oukou e lawe aku ai i na mea a pau a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oukou: i ka oukou mohaikuni, a me ka oukou alana, a me ka hapaumi o ko oukou waiwai, a me ka mohaihoali o ko oukou lima, a me ka mea maikai o ko oukou hoohiki ana a oukou i hoohiki ai ia Iehova.
then the Lord your God will choose a place where he will live with you. That's where you are to bring everything I've order you to do—your burnt offerings and sacrifices, your tithes and freewill offerings, and all the special gifts you promise to give to the Lord.
12 A e olioli oukou imua o Iehova ko oukou Akua, o oukou, a me ka oukou mau keikikane, a me ka oukou mau kaikamahine, a me na kauwakane a oukou, a me ka oukou mau kauwawahine, a me ka Levi e noho pu ana me oukou; no ka mea, aohe ona kuleana, aohe ona aina hooili me oukou.
You will celebrate there in the presence of the Lord your God—you, your sons and daughters, your male and female slaves, and the Levites living in your towns, because they don't have any share in the allotment of land.
13 E malama ia oe iho, o kaumaha aku auanei oe i kau mau mohaikuni ma na wahi a pau au e ike ai;
Make sure you don't present your burnt offerings just anywhere you want.
14 Aka, ma kahi a Iehova e wae ai iloko o kekahi o kou mau ohana, malaila oe e kaumaha aku ai i kau mau mohaikuni, a malaila oe e hana aku ai i na mea a pau a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oe.
You are to offer them only in the place the Lord will choose in the territory of one of your tribes. That's where you are to do everything that I order you to do.
15 Aka, o ka mea a pau a kou naau e makemake ai, he pono e kalua oe a e ai hoi i ka io ma kou mau ipuka a pau, e like me ka pomaikai a Iehova kou Akua i haawi mai ai ia oe: o ke kanaka haumia, a me ke kanaka maemae e ai no oia ia mea, e like me ka ke gazela, a me ka ka dea.
Of course you can slaughter and eat meat wherever you are, anytime you want, depending on how much the Lord your God has blessed you. All of you, whether you're ceremonially clean or not, can it eat it just like you would a gazelle or a deer,
16 Aole nae oukou e ai i ke koko, e ninini oukou ia mea ma ka lepo e like me ka wai.
but you are not to eat the blood—pour that out on the ground.
17 Mai ai oe ma kou mau ipuka i ka hapaumi o kau palaoa, a me kau waina, a me kau aila, a me ka hanau mua a kau poe bipi a me kau poe hipa, aole hoi i kekahi o na mea a pau au i hoohiki ai, a me kau mohaialoha, a me ka mohaihoali a kou lima.
In your towns you must not eat the tithe of your grain or new wine or olive oil, the firstborn of your herds or flocks, any of the offerings that you give to fulfill a promise, your freewill offerings, or your special gifts.
18 Aka, e ai oe ia mau mea imua o Iehova kou Akua, ma kahi a Iehova kou Akua i wae ai, o oe, a me kau keikikane, a me kau kaikamahine, a me kau kauwakane, a me kau kauwawahine, a me ka mamo a Levi ma kou mau ipuka: a e olioli oe imua o Iehova kou Akua i na mea a pau a kou lima e lawe ai.
No, you must eat them in the presence of the Lord your God at the place the Lord your God will choose— you, your sons and daughters, your male and female slaves, and the Levites living in your towns. Celebrate in the presence of the Lord your God in everything you do,
19 E malama ia oe iho, o hoowahawaha auanei oe i ka Levi i na la a pau o kou ola ana ma ka honua.
and make sure you don't forget about the Levites as the whole time you live in your land.
20 Aia hooakea mai o Iehova kou Akua i kou mokuna, e like me kana i olelo mai ai ia oe; a e i iho oe, E ai au i ka io, no ka mea, ke ake nei kou naau e ai i ka io; e ai no oe i ka io, i ka mea a pau a kou naau i makemake ai.
When the Lord your God gives you more land as he promised, and you feel like some meat, and say, “I want to have some meat,” you may can it whenever you want.
21 Ina paha loihi ia oe ka wahi a Iehova kou Akua i wae ai e hoopaa i kona inoa malaila; alaila e kalua oe i ka mea o kau poe bipi a me kau poe hipa a Iehova i haawi mai ai ia oe, e like me ka'u i kauoha ai ia oe, a e ai oe ma kou mau ipuka i ka mea a pau a kou naau i makemake ai.
If the place where the Lord your God chooses to live with you is a long way away, then you can slaughter any animal from the herd or flock he has given you, following the regulations I have given you, and you can eat it in your town whenever you want.
22 E like me ke gazela a me ka dea i aiia, pela oe e ai ai ia mea: o ke kanaka haumia, a me ke kanaka maemae, e ai no ia mau mea.
In fact you can eat it like you would eat a gazelle or deer—whether you're ceremonially clean or not, you can eat it.
23 Aole loa oe e ai i ke koko: no ka mea, o ke koko, oia ke ola, mai ai oe i ke ola me ka io.
Just make sure you don't eat the blood, because the blood is the life, and you must not eat the life with the meat.
24 Mai ai oe ia mea: e ninini iho oe ia mea ma ka lepo, me he wai la.
You must not eat the blood; pour it out on the ground.
25 Mai ai oe ia mea; i pomaikai oe, a me kau mau keiki mahope ou, i kau hana ana i ka pono imua o Iehova.
Don't eat it, so that all will go well with you and your children, because you will be doing what is right in the Lord's sight.
26 O kau mau mea i hoolaaia wale no, a me na mea au i hoohiki ai, oia kau e lawe, a hele ma kahi a Iehova i wae ai.
Take your holy sacrifices and the offerings to fulfill your vows and go to the place the Lord will choose.
27 A e kaumaha aku oe i kau mau mohaikuni, i ka io a me ke koko maluna o ke kuahu o Iehova kou Akua: a o ke koko o kau mau mohai e nininiia maluna o ke kuahu o Iehova kou Akua, a e ai iho oe i ka io.
Present your burnt offerings, the meat and blood, on the altar of the Lord your God. The blood of your other sacrifices is to be poured out beside the altar of the Lord your God, but you are allowed to eat the meat.
28 E malama, e hoolohe hoi i neia mau olelo a pau a'u e kauoha nei ia oe, i pomaikai ai oe a me kau mau keiki mahope ou i ka manawa a pau, i kau hana ana i ka maikai a me ka pono imua o Iehova kou Akua.
Make sure you obey everything I'm commanding you, so that it may always go well with you and your children, because you will be following what is good and right in the sight of the Lord your God.
29 Aia hooki aku o Iehova kou Akua i na lahuikanaka mai kou alo aku, kahi au e hele e hooliloia'i lakou nou, a lilo lakou nou, a noho iho oe ma ko lakou aina:
When the Lord your God destroys the nations ahead of you as you enter the country to possess, and you drive them out and settle down in their land,
30 E malama oe ia oe iho, i hihia ole ai oe mamuli o lakou, mahope o ko lakou lukuia, mai kou alo aku; a i ninau ole ai oe no ko lakou mau akua, i ka i ana ae, Pehea la keia mau lahuikanaka i malama'i i ko lakou mau akua? a pela hoi wau e hana'i.
make sure you don't fall into the trap of following their ways after they have been destroyed right in front of you. Don't try and find out about their gods, asking, “I wonder how these people worship their gods? I'll do like they did.”
31 Mai hana aku oe ia Iehova kou Akua pela: ua hana lakou no ko lakou akua i na mea ino a pau a Iehova i inaina ai; no ka mea, ua puhi lakou i ka lakou keikikane, a me ka lakou kaikamahine i ke ahi no ko lakou mau akua.
You must not worship the Lord your God like this, because when they worship their gods they do every kind of abominable thing that the Lord hates. They even burn their sons and daughters as sacrifices to their gods!
32 O ka mea a pau a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oukou, o ka oukou ia e malama pono ai; mai hooi aku, aole hoi e hoemi iho ia mea.
Be careful to do everything I order you to do. Don't add or take away anything from these instructions.
