Tiuteronomi 23
1 Ko te tangata kua unakatia, kua romiromia, kua tapahia atu ranei tona mea ngaro, e kore e uru ki roto ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa.
An eunuch, whose testicles are broken or cut away, or yard cut off, shall not enter into the church of the Lord.
2 E kore e uru te poriro ki roto ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa; ahakoa tae ki te tekau o ona whakatupuranga, e kore e uru ki roto ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa.
A mamzer, that is to say, one born of a prostitute, shall not enter into the church of the Lord, until the tenth generation.
3 E kore e uru te Amoni, te Moapi ranei, ki roto ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa; ahakoa tae ki te tekau o o ratou whakatupuranga, e kore e uru ki roto ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa ake ake:
The Ammonite and the Moabite, even after the tenth generation shall not enter into the church of the Lord for ever:
4 Mo ratou kihai i whakatau i a koutou, me te mau taro mai, me te mau wai mai mo koutou ki te ara, i to koutou putanga mai i Ihipa; mo ratou hoki i utu i a Paraama, i te tama a Peoro i Petoro i Mehopotamia, hei kanga mou.
Because they would not meet you with bread and water in the way, when you came out of Egypt: hand because they hired against thee Balaam, the son of Beer, from Mesopotamia in Syria, to curse thee.
5 Otiia kihai a Ihowa, tou Atua, i pai ki te whakarongo ki ta Paraama; engari whakaputaina ketia ake e Ihowa, e tou Atua te kanga hei manaaki mou; no te mea e aroha ana a Ihowa, tou Atua, ki a koe.
And the Lord thy God would not hear Balaam, and he turned his cursing into thy blessing, because he loved thee.
6 Kei whai koe kia mau te rongo ki a ratou, kia kake ranei ratou i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe.
Thou shalt not make peace with them, neither shalt thou seek their prosperity all the days of thy life for ever.
7 Kaua e whakarihariha ki te Eromi; ko tou tuakana hoki ia; kaua e whakarihariha ki te Ihipiana; he manene hoki koe i tona whenua i mua.
Thou shalt not abhor the Edomite, because he is thy brother: nor the Egyptian, because thou wast a stranger in his land.
8 Kei te toru o nga whakatupuranga ka uru a ratou tamariki e whanau ai ki roto ki te whakaminenga a Ihowa.
They that are born of them, in the third generation shall enter into the church of the Lord.
9 Ki te haere a ope atu koe ki ou hoariri, kia tupato i nga mea kino katoa.
When thou goest out to war against thy enemies, thou shalt keep thyself from every evil thing.
10 Ki te mea kei roto i a koe tetahi tangata kahore i ma i te paheketanga o te po, na me haere atu ia ki waho o te puni; kaua ia e haere ki roto ki te puni:
If there be among you any man, that is defiled in a dream by night, he shall go forth out of the camp.
11 Otiia ka whakaahiahi, na me koroi ia e ia ki te wai; a ka toene te ra, ka haere ia ki roto ki te puni.
And shall not return, before he be washed with water in the evening: and after sunset he shall return into the camp.
12 A me waiho e koe tetahi wahi i waho o te puni, hei putanga atu mou ki waho:
Thou shalt have a place without the camp, to which thou mayst go for the necessities of nature,
13 Kia whai kaheru hoki koe i roto i au mea; a ka noho koe ki waho, na me keri e koe ki taua mea, a ka tahuri ki te tanu i te mea i puta i roto i a koe:
Carrying a paddle at thy girdle. And when thou sittest down, thou shalt dig round about, and with the earth that is dug up thou shalt cover
14 Kei te haereere hoki a Ihowa, tou Atua, i waenganui o tou puni, hei whakaora i a koe, hei tuku hoki i ou hoariri ki tou aroaro; mo reira kia tapu tou puni: kei kite ia i tetahi mea whakarihariha i roto i a koe, a ka tahuri ke i a koe.
That which thou art eased of: (for the Lord thy God walketh in the midst of thy camp, to deliver thee, and to give up thy enemies to thee: ) and let thy camp be holy, and let no uncleanness appear therein, lest he go away from thee.
15 Kaua e tukua atu ki tona rangatira te pononga i tahuti mai i tona rangatira ki a koe:
Thou shalt not deliver to his master the servant that is fled to thee.
16 Me noho ia ki a koe, ki waenga ou, ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai ia, ki tetahi o ou kuwaha, ki tana e pai ai: kaua ia e tukinotia.
He shall dwell with thee ill the place that shall please him, and shall rest, in one of thy cities: give him no trouble.
17 Kaua tetahi o nga tamahine a Iharaira e waiho hei kairau, kaua ano hoki tetahi o nga tama a Iharaira e whakatangata o Horoma.
There shall be no whore among the daughters of Israel, nor whoremonger among the sons of Israel.
18 Kei kawea e koe te utu o te wahine kairau, te utu ranei o te kuri ki roto ki te whare o Ihowa, o tou Atua, hei mea ki taurangi: he mea whakarihariha hoki ena e rua ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua.
Thou shalt not offer the hire of a strumpet, nor the price of a dog, in the house of the Lord thy God, whatsoever it be that thou hast vowed: because both these are an abomination to the Lord thy God.
19 Kei whakatarewa koe i tetahi mea ki tou teina hei mea whakatupu; hei moni whakatupu, hei kai whakatupu, i tetahi ranei o nga mea e whakatarewaina ana hei whakatupu:
Thou shalt not lend to thy brother money to usury, nor corn, nor any other thing:
20 He tangata ke, whakatarewaina atu te moni whakatupu; ki tou teina ia kaua e whakatarewaina: kia manaakitia ai koe e Ihowa, e tou Atua, i nga mea katoa e totoro atu ai tou ringa i runga i te whenua e haere atu nei koe ki reira tango ai.
But to the stranger. To thy brother thou shalt lend that which he wanteth, without usury: that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all thy works in the land, which thou shalt go in to possess.
21 Ki te puaki tau ki taurangi ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, kei whakaroa ki te whakamana; no te mea ka whaia mai e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe; a ka waiho hei hara mou.
When thou hast made a vow to the Lord thy God, thou shalt not delay to pay it: because the Lord thy God will require it. And if thou delay, it shall be imputed to thee for a sin.
22 Ki te kahore ia e puaki tau ki taurangi, e kore e waiho hei hara mou.
If thou wilt not promise, thou shalt be without sin.
23 Ko te mea i puta atu i ou ngutu kai mana i a koe, mahia; kia rite hoki ki tau ki taurangi ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, hei whakahere tuku noa, hei pera me ta tou mangai i korero ai.
But that which is once gone out of thy lips, thou shalt observe, and shalt do as thou hast promised to the Lord thy God, and hast spoken with thy own will and with thy own mouth.
24 E haere koe ki te mara waina a tou hoa, kainga nga karepe e pai ai koe, a makona noa koe; kaua ia e kohia etahi ki tau oko.
Going into thy neighbour’s vineyard, thou mayst eat as many grapes as thou pleasest: but must carry none out with thee:
25 E haere koe ki te witi kahore ano kia kotia a tou hoa, na ma tou ringa e kato etahi hua; kaua ia he toronaihi e akina atu ki te witi a tou hoa, kahore ano kia kotia e ia.
If thou go into thy friend’s corn, thou mayst break the ears, and rub them in thy hand: but not reap them with a sickle.
