Kanawailua 26
1 A IA hiki aku oe ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi mai ai nou, a lilo ia nou, a noho iho oe malaila;
'And it hath been, when thou comest in unto the land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee — an inheritance, and thou hast possessed it, and dwelt in it,
2 E kii oe i kekahi o na hua mua a pau o ka honua, a o kau ia e lawe no ka aina a Iehova kou Akua i haawi mai ai nou, a e waiho iloko o ka hinai, a e hele aku oe ma kahi a Iehova kou Akua i wae ai e hoopaa i kona inoa malaila.
that thou hast taken of the first of all the fruits of the ground which thou dost bring in out of thy land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee, and hast put [it] in a basket, and gone unto the place which Jehovah thy God doth choose to cause His name to tabernacle there.
3 A e hele oe i ke kahuna e noho ana ia mau la, a e i aku ia ia, Ke hooia aku nei au ia Iehova kou Akua i keia la, no ka mea, ua hiki mai nei au ma ka aina a Iehova i hoohiki ai i ko kakou mau kupana e haawi mai no kakou.
'And thou hast come in unto the priest who is in those days, and hast said unto him, I have declared to-day to Jehovah thy God, that I have come in unto the land which Jehovah hath sworn to our fathers to give to us;
4 A e lawe ke kahuna i ka hinai mai kou lima ae, a e waiho ia imua o ke kuahu o Iehova kou Akua.
and the priest hath taken the basket out of thy hand, and placed it before the altar of Jehovah thy God.
5 A e hai aku oe me ka olelo aku imua o Iehova kou Akua, He kanaka kuewa kou makuakane no Suria, a iho no ia i Aigupita, a noho mahihini malaila, he poe uuku, a lilo ia malaila i lahuikanaka nui, ikaika, a lehulehu.
'And thou hast answered and said before Jehovah thy God, A perishing Aramaean [is] my father! and he goeth down to Egypt, and sojourneth there with few men, and becometh there a nation, great, mighty, and numerous;
6 A hana ino mai ko Aigupita ia kakou, a hooluhi mai ia kakou, a haawi mai ia kakou i na hana kaumaha loa.
and the Egyptians do us evil, and afflict us, and put on us hard service;
7 A kahea aku kakou ia Iehova ke Akua o ko kakou mau kupuna, hoolohe mai no o Iehova i ko kakou leo, a nana mai ia i ko kakou luhi, a me ka kakou hana, a me ko kakou kaumaha.
and we cry unto Jehovah, God of our fathers, and Jehovah heareth our voice, and seeth our affliction, and our labour, and our oppression;
8 A lawe mai o Iehova ia kakou mai Aigupita mai me ka lima ikaika, a me ka lima kakauha, a me ka mea weliweli nui, a me na hoailona, a me na mea kupanaha.
and Jehovah bringeth us out from Egypt, by a strong hand, and by a stretched-out arm, and by great fear, and by signs, and by wonders,
9 A ua lawe mai hoi oia ia kakou ma keia wahi, a ua haawi ia kakou i keia aina, he aina e kahe ana o ka waiu a me ka meli.
and he bringeth us in unto this place, and giveth to us this land — a land flowing with milk and honey.
10 Eia hoi, ua lawe mai nei au, e Iehova, i ka hua mua o ka aina au i haawi mai ai ia'u. A e waiho oe ia mea imua o Iehova kou Akua, a e hoomana aku imua o Iehova kou Akua.
'And now, lo, I have brought in the first of the fruits of the ground which thou hast given to me, O Jehovah; — and thou hast placed it before Jehovah thy God, and bowed thyself before Jehovah thy God,
11 A e olioli oe i na mea maikai a pau a Iehova kou Akua i haawi mai ai ia oe, a me ko ka hale ou, o oe, a me ka Levi, a me ka malihini iwaena ou.
and rejoiced in all the good which Jehovah thy God hath given to thee, and to thy house, thou, and the Levite, and the sojourner who [is] in thy midst.
12 Aia hoopau oe i ka hookupu ana i ka hapaumi a pau o kau mea i loaa i ke kolu o ka makahiki, oia ka makahiki hookupu i ka hapaumi; a haawi aku i ka Levi a i ka malihini, a i ka mea makua ole, a me ka wahinekanemake, i ai iho ai lakou ma kou mau ipuka a maona;
'When thou dost complete to tithe all the tithe of thine increase in the third year, the year of the tithe, then thou hast given to the Levite, to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, and they have eaten within thy gates, and been satisfied,
13 Alaila e olelo aku oe imua o Iehova kou Akua, Ua lawe mai nei au i ka mea i hoolaaia mai ko'u hale mai, a ua haawi aku hoi i ka Levi, a i ka malihini, a i ka mea makua ole, a i ka wahinekanemake, e like me kau mau kauoha a pau au i kanoha mai ai ia'u; aole au i hoohala i kau mau kauoha, aole hoi au i hoopoina;
and thou hast said before Jehovah thy God, I have put away the separated thing out of the house, and also have given it to the Levite, and to the sojourner, and to the orphan, and to the widow, according to all Thy command which Thou hast commanded me; I have not passed over from Thy commands, nor have I forgotten.
14 Aole au i ai i kekahi o ia mea i kuu makena ana, aole au i lawe i kekahi o ia mea no ka mea haumia, aole hoi au i haawi i kekahi o ia mea no ka mea i make; ua hoolohe no au i ka leo o Iehova ko'u Akua, a ua hana au e like me na mea a pau au i kauoha mai ai ia'u.
I have not eaten in mine affliction of it, nor have I put away of it for uncleanness, nor have I given of it for the dead; I have hearkened to the voice of Jehovah my God; I have done according to all that Thou hast commanded me;
15 E nana mai oe mai kou wahi hoano, mai ka lani mai, a e hoomaikai mai i kou poe kanaka, i ka Iseraela, a me ka aina au i haawi mai ai no makou, e like me au i hoohiki ai i ko makou mau kupuna, he aina e kahe ana o ka waiu a me ka meli.
look from Thy holy habitation, from the heavens, and bless Thy people Israel, and the ground which Thou hast given to us, as Thou hast sworn to our fathers — a land flowing [with] milk and honey.
16 I keia la, ua kauoha mai o Iehova kou Akua ia oe e hana ma keia mau kanawai, a me ua olelo kupaa; e malama hoi oe a e hana ma ia mau mea me kou naau a pau, a me kou uhane a pau.
'This day Jehovah thy God is commanding thee to do these statutes and judgments; and thou hast hearkened and done them with all thy heart, and with all thy soul,
17 I keia la ua hooia aku oe ia Iehova, i Akua nou, a e hele ma kona mau aoao, a e malama i kona mau kanawai, a i kana mau kauoha, a me kana mau olelo kupaa, a e hoolohe i kona leo.
Jehovah thou hast caused to promise to-day to become thy God, and to walk in His ways, and to keep His statutes, and His commands, and His judgments, and to hearken to His voice.
18 A ua hooia mai o Iehova ia oe i keia la, he poe kanaka ponoi nona, e like me kana i olelo mai ai ia oe, i malama ai oe i kana mau kauoha a pau:
'And Jehovah hath caused thee to promise to-day to become His people, a peculiar treasure, as He hath spoken to thee, and to keep all His commands;
19 A e hookiekie mai oia ia oe maluna o na lahuikanaka a pau ana i hana'i, ma ka hoolea ana, a ma ka inoa, a ma ka hoomaikai; a e lilo oe i poe kanaka hemolele no Iehova, e like me kana i olelo mai ai.
so as to make thee uppermost above all the nations whom He hath made for a praise, and for a name, and for beauty, and for thy being a holy people to Jehovah thy God, as He hath spoken.
