Pukaana 23
1 MAI hoala oe i ka olelo wahahee. Mai kau pu i kou lima me ka poe hewa e lilo i mea hoike hookaumaha.
“You shall not spread a false report. Do not join the wicked by being a malicious witness.
2 Mai hahai mamuli o ka lehulehu e hana hewa, mai paue aku hoi ma ke ku e mamuli o ka lehulehu, e hoohewa wale.
You shall not follow the crowd in wrongdoing. When you testify in a lawsuit, do not pervert justice by siding with the crowd.
3 Mai kokua oe mamuli o ka ilihune i kona hewa ana.
And do not show favoritism to a poor man in his lawsuit.
4 Ina halawai oe me ka bipi a kou hoalauna e hele hewa ana, me kona hoki paha, e oiaio no e hoihoi mai oe ia mea io na la.
If you encounter your enemy’s stray ox or donkey, you must return it to him.
5 Ina ike oe i ka hoki a ka mea i huhu mai ia oe, o moe ana malalo iho o kona kaumaha, a manao oe aole kokua ia ia, alaila, e kokua aku no oe ia ia.
If you see the donkey of one who hates you fallen under its load, do not leave it there; you must help him with it.
6 Mai hookahuli oe i ka pono o ke kanaka hune i kona hookolokolo ana.
You shall not deny justice to the poor in their lawsuits.
7 E mamao aku oe i ka mea wahahee; a mai pepehi oe i ka mea i hewa ole, a me ka mea i pono: no ka mea, aole au e hoapono aku i ka mea i hewa.
Stay far away from a false accusation. Do not kill the innocent or the just, for I will not acquit the guilty.
8 Mai lawe oe i ka waiwai kipe: no ka mea, o ka waiwai kipe ka mea e makapo ai ka poe ike, a e kekee ai na olelo a ka poe pono.
Do not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds those who see and twists the words of the righteous.
9 Mai hookaumaha oe i ka malihini, no ka mea, ua ike no oukou i ka manao o ka malihini, no ko oukou noho malihini ana ma ka aina o Aigupita.
Do not oppress a foreign resident, since you yourselves know how it feels to be foreigners; for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
10 E lulu oe i kou aina i eono mau makahiki, a e hoiliili hoi i kona hua.
For six years you are to sow your land and gather its produce,
11 Aka i ka hiku o ka makahiki e hoomaha oe i ka aina, e waiho wale hoi; i ai iho ka poe hune o kou poe kanaka; a o ka mea a lakou e hookoe ai, na na holoholona o ke kula ia e ai. Pela no oe e hana'i i kon pawaina, a me kon laau oliva.
but in the seventh year you must let it rest and lie fallow, so that the poor among your people may eat from the field and the wild animals may consume what they leave. Do the same with your vineyard and olive grove.
12 I na la eono e hana'i oe i kau hana, a e hoomaha hoi i ka la hiku; i hoomaha ai kau bipi a me kou hoki, i hoohoihoiia hoi ke koikikane a kau kauwa wahine, a me ka malihini.
For six days you are to do your work, but on the seventh day you must cease, so that your ox and your donkey may rest and the son of your maidservant may be refreshed, as well as the foreign resident.
13 Ma na mea a pau au i olelo ai ia oukou e malama ia oukou iho; mai hai iki i ka inoa o na'kna e, aole hoi e loheia ia ma kon waha.
Pay close attention to everything I have said to you. You must not invoke the names of other gods; they must not be heard on your lips.
14 E malama oe i ekolu ahaaina no u i ka makahiki.
Three times a year you are to celebrate a feast to Me.
15 E malama oe i ka ahaaina o ka berena huole: Ehikn la oe e ai ai i ka berena huole, me a'u i kanoha aka ai ia oe, i ka manawa i haawiia, ma ka malama o Abiba; no ka mea, ia wa oe i hele mai ai mailoko mai o Aigupita: Mai ikeia nae kekahi imua o'u me ka waiwai ole:
You are to keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread as I commanded you: At the appointed time in the month of Abib you are to eat unleavened bread for seven days, because that was the month you came out of Egypt. No one may appear before Me empty-handed.
16 A me ka ahaaina o ka ohi mua ana, o na hua mua hoi o kau hooikaika ana, ka mea au i lulu ai ma ke kola, a me ka ahaaina o ka hoiliili ai ana, oia hoi ka hope o ka makahiki, i kou wa e hoiliili ai mailoko mai o ke kula, i kau mea i hooikaika ai.
You are also to keep the Feast of Harvest with the firstfruits of the produce from what you sow in the field. And keep the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year, when you gather your produce from the field.
17 E ikeia no ko oukou poe kane a pau imua o Iehova ke Akua, i ekolu no ikea ana i ka makahiki hookahi.
Three times a year all your males are to appear before the Lord GOD.
18 Mai kaumaha aku oe i ke koko o ko'u mohai, me ka berena hu, aole hoi e hookoeia ke kelekele o ka'u ahaaina a kakahiaka.
You must not offer the blood of My sacrifices with anything leavened, nor may the fat of My feast remain until morning.
19 E lawe mai no oe iloko o ka hale o Iehova, kou Akua, i ka mua o na hua mua o kou aina. Mai hoolapalapa oe i ke kaokeiki malokool ka waiu o kona makuwahine.
Bring the best of the firstfruits of your soil to the house of the LORD your God. You must not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.
20 Aia hoi, e hoouna aku ana au i ko'u Anela mamua on, e malama ia oe ma ke ala, a e hookomo ia oe i kahi a'u i hoomakaukau ai.
Behold, I am sending an angel before you to protect you along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared.
21 E ao ia ia e hoolohe i kona leo, mai hoohuhu aku ia ia; no ka mea, aole ia e kala mai i kon hewa: aia hoi, maloko ona ko'u inoa.
Pay attention to him and listen to his voice; do not defy him, for he will not forgive rebellion, since My Name is in him.
22 Aka, ina hoolohe io mai oe i kona leo, a e hana hoi i na mea a'u e olelo aku ai: alaila, e lilo wau i enemi no kou poe enemi, a e hana ino aku au i ka mea e hana ino mai ia oe.
But if you will listen carefully to his voice and do everything I say, I will be an enemy to your enemies and a foe to your foes.
23 No ka mea, e hele ana ko'u Anela mamua on, a e kai aku ia oe i kahi o ka Amora a me ka Heta a me ka Pereza, a me ko Kanaana, a me ka Heva a me ka Iebusa, a na'u no lakou e anai aku.
For My angel will go before you and bring you into the land of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hivites, and Jebusites, and I will annihilate them.
24 Mai kulou oe i ko lakou akua, aole hoi e malama aku ia lakou, aole hoi e hana aku mamuli o ka lakou hana: aka, e hookahuli loa oe ia lakou, a e wawahi loa i ko lakou mau kii.
You must not bow down to their gods or serve them or follow their practices. Instead, you are to demolish them and smash their sacred stones to pieces.
25 E malama hoi oukou ia Iehova i ko oukou Akua; alaila, nana no e hoomaikai i kau ai, a me kon wai; a e lawe aku no hoi i ka mai, mailoko aku ou.
So you shall serve the LORD your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take away sickness from among you.
26 Aole loa e poholo wale ka hanau ana o kekahi mea ma kon aina, aole hoi e pa; e hooko no wau i kou mau la.
No woman in your land will miscarry or be barren; I will fulfill the number of your days.
27 Na'u no e haawi i ka makau mamna on, a na'u no e luku aku i na kanaka a pau, ma kahi au e hele aku ai, a na'u no e hana aku i kou poe enemi, i huli ai ko lakou kua ia oe.
I will send My terror ahead of you and throw into confusion every nation you encounter. I will make all your enemies turn and run.
28 A na'u no e hoouna aku i nalohopeeha mamna ou, na lakou no e kipaku aku i ka Heva, a me ko Kanaana, a me ka Heta, mamua ou,
I will send the hornet before you to drive the Hivites and Canaanites and Hittites out of your way.
29 Aole nae au e kipaku aku ia lakou mamua on i ka makahiki hookahi; o nahelehele ka aina, a nui loa iho na holoholona hihiu e alo mai ia oe.
I will not drive them out before you in a single year; otherwise the land would become desolate and wild animals would multiply against you.
30 E kipaku liill aku au ia lakou mai kou alo aku, a lilo oe i nui, a ill mai ka aina nou.
Little by little I will drive them out ahead of you, until you become fruitful and possess the land.
31 A na'u no e kau i kon palena mai ke Kaiula, a hiki i ke kai o Pilisetia, a mai ka waonahele hoi a hiki i ka muliwai; no ka mea, e haawi aku ana au i na kanaka o ia aina i ko oukou lima; a e kipaku aku oe ia lakou mai kou alo aku.
And I will establish your borders from the Red Sea to the Sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the Euphrates. For I will deliver the inhabitants into your hand, and you will drive them out before you.
32 Mai hoopaa berita me lakou, aole hoi me ko lakou mau akua.
You shall make no covenant with them or with their gods.
33 Aole lakou e noho i kou aina, o hoolilo lakou ia oe i mea hana hewa mai ia'u; no ka mea, ina e malama oe i ko lakou mau akua, e lilo auanei ia i mea hoowalewale nou.
They must not remain in your land, lest they cause you to sin against Me. For if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you.”
