Tiuteronomi 24
1 Ki te tango te tangata i te wahine, a ka marena i a ia, na, ki te kore ia e manakohia e ia, no te mea kua kitea e ia tetahi he ona, me tuhituhi e ia he pukapuka whakarere ki a ia, ka hoatu ki tona ringa, a ka tono atu i a ia ki waho o tona whare.
When a man takes a wife, and marries her, then it shall be, if she finds no favor in his eyes, because he has found some unseemly thing in her, that he shall write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.
2 A, ka puta ia i tona whare, ka ahei ia te haere a ka riro hei wahine ma tetahi atu.
And when she has departed out of his house, she may go and be another man's.
3 A, ki te kino to muri tahu ki a ia, a ka tuhituhia e ia he pukapuka whakarere ki a ia, ka hoatu hoki ki tona ringa, ka tono atu ano hoki i a ia i roto i tona whare; ki te mate ranei to muri tahu i tango nei i a ia hei wahine mana;
And if the latter husband dislikes her, and writes her a bill of divorcement, and gives it in her hand, and sends her out of his house, or if the latter husband dies, who took her to be his wife,
4 E kore e ahei i te tahu tuatahi, nana nei ia i tono atu, te tango ano i a ia hei wahine mana i muri i tona whakapokenga; he mea whakarihariha hoki tena ki te aroaro o Ihowa; kaua ano hoki e mea kia whai hara te whenua i hoatu nei e Ihowa, e tou A tua, ki a koe hei kainga tupu.
her former husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife after she is defiled. For that is abomination before Jehovah, and thou shall not cause the land to sin, which Jehovah thy God gives thee for an inheritance.
5 Ki te tango te tangata i te wahine hou, kaua ia e haere ki te whawhai, kaua ano hoki tetahi mahi e whakaritea mana: me noho noa ia i tona whare kia kotahi tau, whakahari ai i te ngakau o tana wahine i tango ai.
When a man takes a new wife, he shall not go out in the army, neither shall he be charged with any business. He shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer his wife whom he has taken.
6 Kaua e tangohia e te tangata to raro kohatu, to runga kohatu ranei o te mira, hei taunaha: he tango hoki tena i te oranga o te tangata hei taunaha.
No man shall take the mill or the upper millstone to pledge, for he takes life to pledge.
7 Ki te mau tetahi tangata e tahae ana i tetahi o ona teina o nga tama a Iharaira, hei pononga mana, hei hoko ranei mana, me mate taua tahae: a ka whakakorea atu e koe te kino i roto i a koe.
If a man is found stealing any of his brothers of the sons of Israel, and he deals with him harshly, or sells him, then that thief shall die. So shall thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
8 Kia mahara, i nga panga mai o te repera, kia whakaritea marietia, kia mahia nga mea katoa e ako ai nga tohunga, nga Riwaiti, ki a koutou: kia mahara kia mahia taku i whakahau ai ki a ratou.
Take heed in the disease of leprosy, that thou observe diligently, and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach you. As I commanded them, so ye shall observe to do.
9 Maharatia ta Ihowa, ta tou Atua, i mea ai ki a Miriama i te ara, i to koutou haerenga mai i Ihipa.
Remember what Jehovah thy God did to Miriam by the way as ye came forth out of Egypt.
10 Ki te whakatarewa atu koe i tetahi mea ki tou hoa, kaua e haere ki roto ki tona whare ki te tiki atu i tana taunaha.
When thou do lend thy neighbor any manner of loan, thou shall not go into his house to fetch his pledge.
11 Me tu atu koe i waho, a ma te tangata i a ia nei tau mea, e kawe mai te taunaha ki a koe ki waho.
Thou shall stand outside, and the man to whom thou lend shall bring forth the pledge outside to thee.
12 Otiia mehemea he rawakore taua tangata, kei moe koe me te takoto tahi mai tana taunaha:
And if he is a poor man, thou shall not sleep with his pledge.
13 Me tino whakahoki atu e koe te taunaha ki a ia ina toene te ra, kia moe ai ia i roto i tona kakahu, a ka manaaki i a koe: a ka waiho hei tika mou ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua.
Thou shall surely restore to him the pledge when the sun goes down, that he may sleep in his garment, and bless thee. And it shall be righteousness to thee before Jehovah thy God.
14 Kei tukinotia e koe te kaimahi, he rawakore, he mate, ahakoa no ou tuakana, no ou tangata iwi ke ranei i tou whenua, i roto i ou kuwaha:
Thou shall not oppress a hired servant who is poor and needy, whether he be of thy brothers, or of thy sojourners that are in thy land within thy gates.
15 Me hoatu e koe tona utu i tona ra, kei to te ra me te takoto ano taua mea; he rawakore hoki ia, a e okaka ana tona ngakau ki taua nea: kei karanga ia ki a Ihowa mo tou kino, a ka waiho hei hara mou.
Thou shall give him his hire in his day, neither shall the sun go down upon it, for he is poor, and sets his heart upon it, lest he cry against thee to Jehovah, and it be sin to thee.
16 E kore e whakamatea nga matua mo te he o nga tamariki, e kore ano hoki e whakamatea nga tamariki mo te he o nga matua: mo tona ake hara ano e whakamatea ai tena tangata, tena.
The fathers shall not be put to death for the sons, neither shall the sons be put to death for the fathers. Every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
17 Kei whakapeaua ketia e koe te whakawa mo te manene, mo te pani ranei; kaua ano hoki e tangohia te kakahu o te pouaru hei taunaha:
Thou shall not distort the justice due to the sojourner, or to the fatherless, nor take the widow's raiment to pledge,
18 Engari kia mahara he pononga koe i Ihipa, a na Ihowa, na tou Atua, koe i whakaora mai i reira: koia ahau i whakahau ai i a koe ki te mea i tenei mea.
but thou shall remember that thou were a bondman in Egypt, and Jehovah thy God redeemed thee from there. Therefore I command thee to do this thing.
19 Ka kotia e koe au hua i tau mara, a ka wareware tetahi paihere i te mara, kei hoki koe ki te tiki: waiho ma te manene, ma te pani, ma te pouaru: kia manaakitia ai koe e Ihowa, e tou Atua, i nga meatanga katoa a ou ringa.
When thou reap thy harvest in thy field, and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, thou shall not go again to fetch it. It shall be for the sojourner, for the fatherless, and for the widow, that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hands.
20 E taia e koe tau oriwa, kaua e hoki ano ki nga manga ketu ai: waiho ma te manene, ma te pani, ma te pouaru.
When thou beat thine olive tree, thou shall not go over the boughs again. It shall be for the sojourner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
21 E whakiia e koe nga karepe o tau mara waina, kaua e hamua i muri i a koe: waiho ma te manene, ma te pani, ma te pouaru.
When thou gather of thy vineyard, thou shall not glean it behind thee. It shall be for the sojourner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
22 Me mahara ano hoki koe he pononga koe i te whenua o Ihipa; koia ahau i whakahau ai i a koe kia mea i tenei mea.
And thou shall remember that thou were a bondman in the land of Egypt. Therefore I command thee to do this thing.
