< Tiuteronomi 16 >
1 Kia mahara ki te marama, ki a Apipi, ka mahi i te kapenga ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua: ko Apipi hoki te marama i whakaputaina mai ai koe e Ihowa, e tou Atua, i Ihipa i te po.
You are to observe the month of Abib and to celebrate the Passover to the Lord your God, because it was in the month of Abib that the Lord your God led you out of Egypt by night.
2 Na me patu e koe te kapenga ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, o te kahui hipi, o te kahui kau, ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa kia waiho tona ingoa ki reira.
The Passover sacrifice from your herd or flock must be offered to the Lord your God in the place where the Lord will choose to live with you.
3 Kaua e kainga tahitia te paraoa rewena me taua mea; kia whitu nga ra e kai ai koe i te taro rewenakore me taua mea, ara i te taro tangihanga; i haere potatutatu mai hoki koe i te whenua o Ihipa: kia mahara ai koe ki te ra i puta mai ai koe i te w henua o Ihipa i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe.
Don't eat ordinary bread with it. For seven days you are to eat bread made without yeast with it, the bread of hardship, because you had to leave Egypt in such a hurry. This way you'll remember day you left Egypt for the rest of your lives.
4 A kia whitu nga ra e kore ai e kitea he rewena ki a koe i ou rohe katoa; kaua hoki e whakatoea mo te ata tetahi wahi o te kikokiko e patua e koe i te ahiahi o te ra tuatahi.
Don't have yeast anywhere in your country for seven days. Don't keep any of the meat that you sacrifice on the evening of the first day until the morning.
5 E kore e ahei kia patua te kapenga i roto i tetahi o ou tatau, e homai ana e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe:
Don't sacrifice the Passover animal in any of the towns that the Lord your God is giving you.
6 Engari hei te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa, tou Atua, kia waiho tona ingoa ki reira, hei reira koe patu ai i te kapenga i te ahiahi, i te toenetanga o te ra, i te wa ano i puta mai ai koe i Ihipa.
The Passover sacrifice must be offered by you only at the place where the Lord your God will choose to live with you. You are to do this in the evening at sunset-the same time you left Egypt.
7 Na me tunu e koe, me kai hoki ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa, tou Atua: a i te ata ka tahuri, ka haere ki ou teneti.
Cook it and eat it in the place the Lord your God will choose. Then in the morning go back to your tents.
8 E ono nga ra e kai ai koe i te taro rawenakore: a i te ra whitu ko te huihui nui ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua: kaua tetahi mahi e mahia i taua ra.
Eat bread without yeast for six days, and the on the seventh day you are to have a holy meeting to honor the Lord your God. You are not to do any work.
9 Taua e koe, kia whitu nga wiki: kei tau tukunga mataati i te toronaihi ki te kotinga koe timata mai ai te tatau i nga wiki e whitu.
Count off seven weeks from when you start the grain harvest.
10 Na me mahi te hakari o nga wiki ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, ki tetahi tahua, he mea hoatu noa na tou ringa; kia rite tau e hoatu ai ki te manaaki a Ihowa, a tou Atua, i a koe:
Then celebrate the Festival of Weeks to honor him the Lord your God by giving him a freewill offering, depending on just how much the Lord your God has blessed you.
11 Na ka koa koe ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua, a koe, koutou tahi ko tau tama, ko tau tamahine, me tau pononga tane, me tau pononga wahine, me te Riwaiti i roto i ou tatau, me te manene, me te pani, me te pouaru i roto i a koe, ki te wahi i whi riwhiria e Ihowa, e tou Atua, kia waiho tona ingoa ki reira.
You will celebrate in the Lord's presence in the place where he will choose to live with you. This includes you, your sons and daughters, your male and female slaves, and the Levites who live in your towns, as well as the foreigners, orphans, and widows among you.
12 A kia mahara koe he pononga koe i Ihipa i mua: me pupuri hoki, me mahi enei tikanga.
Don't forget that you were once slaves in Egypt, and be careful to follow these regulations.
13 Me mahi te hakari whare wharau, kia whitu nga ra, ua poto i a koe te kohikohi mai i tau patunga witi me tau poka waina:
Celebrate the Festival of Shelters for seven days once you have finished threshing your grain and pressing your grapes.
14 A ka koa koe ki tau hakari, a koe, koutou tahi ko tau tama, ko tau tamahine, ko tau pononga tane, ko tau pononga wahine, me te Riwaiti, te manene, te pani me te pouaru i roto i ou tatau.
Enjoy your feast—you, your sons and daughters, your male and female slaves, and the Levites who live in your towns, as well as the foreigners, orphans, and widows among you.
15 Kia whitu nga ra o tau hakari ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, i te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa: ka manaaki hoki a Ihowa, tou Atua, i a koe i au hua katoa, i nga mahi katoa hoki a ou ringa, a ka tino harakoa koe.
Celebrate this Festival for seven days to honor the Lord your God in the place he will choose, because the Lord your God will bless your whole harvest and everything you do, so you will be really happy.
16 E toru nga wa o te tau e kitea ai ou tane katoa ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua, ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai ia: ko te hakari taro rewenakore, ko te hakari o nga wiki, ko te hakari whare wharau: kaua hoki e puta kau ki te aroaro o Ihowa:
All your men must come before the Lord your God in the place He will choose three times every year: the Festival of Bread without Yeast, the Festival of Weeks, and the Festival of Shelters. No one should come before the Lord without an offering.
17 Me homai e ia tangata te mea e taea e ia, kia rite ki te manaaki i homai e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe.
Each of you is to bring whatever gift you can, depending on how much the Lord your God has blessed you.
18 Whakaturia etahi kaiwhakawa, me etahi rangatira mou i ou kuwaha katoa, e homai ana e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe, mo ou iwi: kia tika hoki ta ratou whakawa mo te iwi.
Choose judges and officials for each of your tribes in every town that the Lord your God is giving you. They must judge the people fairly.
19 Kaua e whakapeaua ketia te whakawa; kaua hoki e whakapai kanohi; kaua ano e tango i te utu whakapati: he mea whakamatapo hoki te utu whakapati i nga kanohi o te hunga whakaaro nui, he mea whakapeau ke i nga kupu a te hunga tika.
Don't pervert justice or show favoritism. Don't take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the wise and twists the words of the truthful.
20 Ko te mea tika anake tau e whai ai, kia ora ai koe, kia noho ai hoki ki te whenua e homai nei e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe.
Always do what is right and just, so that you may go on living, occupying the land that the Lord your God is giving you.
21 Kaua e whakatokia e koe he Ahera o tehea momo rakau ki te taha o te aata a Ihowa, a tou Atua, e hanga e koe.
Don't ever set up a wooden Asherah pole next to the altar you build for the Lord your God,
22 Kaua ano hoki e whakaturia ake tetahi pou whakapakoko mau: e kinongia nei e Ihowa, e tou Atua.
and don't make for yourselves an idolatrous stone pillar, which the Lord your God hates.
