28 A o ke koena o ka poe kanaka, o na kahuna, o na Levi, o ka poe kiaipuka, o ka poe mele, o ka poe Netini, a me ka poe a pau i hookaawaleia ae la mailoko mai o na lahuikanaka o na aina a ma ke kanawai o ke Akua, ka lakou poe wahine, o ka lakou poe keikikane a me ka lakou poe kaikamahine, ka poe a pau e hiki ia lakou ke ike a e hoomaopopo hoi;
As for the rest of the people, who were priests, Levites, gatekeepers, singers, temple servants, and all who had separated themselves from the people of the neighboring lands and pledged themselves to the law of God, including their wives, their sons and their daughters, all who have knowledge and understanding,
29 Hoopili mai la lakou i ko lakou mau hoahanau, i na luna o lakou, a hoohiki iho la me ka hoopaa loa ana e hele ma ke kanawai o ke Akua, ka mea i haawiia mai ma ka lima o Mose ke kauwa a ke Akua, a e malama a e hana i na kauoha a pau a Iehova ko kakou Haku, a me kana mau olelo kupaa a me kona mau kapu;
they joined together with their brothers, their nobles, and bound themselves with both a curse and an oath to walk in God's law, which was given by Moses the servant of God, and to observe and obey all the commandments of Yahweh our Lord and his decrees and his statutes.
30 A i haawi ole aku makou i ka makou mau kaikamahine i na lahuikanaka o ka aina, a i lawe ole hoi makou i ka lakou mau kaikamahine na na keikikane a makou:
We promised that we would not give our daughters to the people of the land or take their daughters for our sons.
31 A ina e halihali mai na kanaka e i na mea kalepa, a i kekahi ai paha, i ka la Sabati e kuai, aole makou e lawe i ka lakou i ka Sabati, i ka la hoano; a i ka hiku o ka makahiki e hooki makou i kela aie keia aie me ka hookaa ole ia mai.
We also promised that if the people of the land bring goods or any grain to sell on the Sabbath day, we would not buy from them on the Sabbath or on any holy day. Every seventh year we will let our fields rest, and we will cancel all debts.
32 A kau iho la makou maluna o makou iho i na kanawai e auhau ia makou iho i ka hapakolu o ka sekela i kela makahiki i keia makahiki no ka oihana o ka hale o ko makou Akua;
We accepted the commands to give a third of a shekel each year for the service of the house of our God,
33 No ka berena hoike a me ka mohai makana mau a me ka mohaikuni mau, no na Sabati, no na mahina hou, no na ahaaina i oleloia'i, a no na mea laa, a no na mohaihala e uhi ai i ka hala no ka Iseraela, a no na oihana a pau o ka hale o ko makou Akua.
to provide for the bread of the presence, and for the regular grain offering, the burnt offerings on the Sabbaths, the new moon festivals and appointed feasts, and for the holy offerings, and for the sin offerings to make atonement for Israel, as well as for all the work of the house of our God.
34 A hailona iho la makou, o ka poe kahuna, na Levi a me ka poe kanaka, ma ko ka hale o ko makou poe kupuna, no ka haawi ana mai i ka wahie e lawe mai ma ka hale o ko makou Akua, i na manawa i oleloia'i, i kela makahiki i keia makahiki, i mea puhi maluna o ke kuahu o Iehova ko makou Akua, e like me ka mea i kakauia'i iloko o ke kanawai;
The priests, the Levites, and the people cast lots for the wood offering. The lots would select which of our families would bring wood into the house of our God at the appointed times each year, to be burned on the altar of Yahweh our God, as it is written in the law.
35 A e lawe mai i na mea i ohi mua ia o ko makou aina, a me na mea i ohi mua ia o kela hua keia hua o na laau a pau, i kela makahiki keia makahiki, ma ka hale o Iehova:
We promised to bring to the house of Yahweh the firstfruits grown from our soil, and the firstfruits of every tree each year.
36 A me na hiapo o ka makou poe keikikane, a me ka makou poe holoholona, e like me ka mea i kakauia'i iloko o ke kanawai, a me na mea hanau mua o ka makou poe bipi a me ka makou ohana hipa, e lawe mai no ma ka hale o ko kakou Akua, i na kahuna e lawelawe ana ma ka hale o ko kakou Akua;
As it is written in the law, we promised to bring to the house of God and to the priests who serve there, the firstborn of our sons and of our herds and flocks.
37 A i lawe makou i kauwahi hana mua ia o ka makou palaoa kawiliia, a me na makana a makou, a me ka hua o kela laau o keia laau, ka waina a me ka aila, i na kahuna ma na keena o ka hale o ko kakou Akua; a me ka hapa umi o ka makou mahina ai i na Levi, a na lakou no, na na Levi ka hapa umi ma na kulanakauhale a pau o ko makou mahi ana.
We will bring the first of our dough and our grain offerings, and the fruit of every tree, and the new wine and the oil we will bring to the priests, to the storerooms of the house of our God. We will bring to the Levites the tithes from our soil because the Levites collect the tithes in all the towns where we work.
38 A o ke kahuna, ka mamo a Aarona, oia pu kekahi me na Levi i ka lawe ana o na Levi i ka hapa umi; a e halihali mai na Levi i ka hapa umi o ka hapa umi ma ka hale o ko kakou Akua ma na keena iloko o ka hale waihona waiwai.
A priest, a descendant of Aaron, must be with the Levites when they receive the tithes. The Levites must bring a tenth of the tithes to the house of our God to the storerooms of the treasury.
39 No ka mea, e lawe no ka Iseraela a me na Levi i ka hookupu ana o ka ai, o ka waina a me ka aila ma na keena, a malaila no na ipu o ka luakini, a me na kahuna nana e lawelawe, a me ka poe kiaipuka, a me ka poe mele: aole makou e haalele i ka hale o ko kakou Akua.
For the people of Israel and the descendants of Levi are to bring the contributions of grain, new wine, and oil to the storerooms where the articles of the sanctuary are kept and where the priests who are serving, and the gatekeepers, and the singers stay. We will not neglect the house of our God.
