Tiuteronomi 27

1 Na ka whakahau a Mohi ratou ko nga kaumatua o Iharaira i te iwi, ka mea, Puritia nga whakahau katoa e whakahau nei ahau ki a koutou i tenei ra.

And Moses and the elders of Israel commanded, saying, Keep all these commands, all that I command you this day.

2 A, tenei ake, a te ra e whiti atu ai koutou i Horano ki te whenua e homai ana e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe, na, ka whakaara ake koe i etahi kohatu nunui mau, ka pani hoki ki te raima:

And it shall come to pass in the day when you shall cross over Jordan into the land which the Lord your God gives you, that you shall set up for yourself great stones, and shall plaster them with plaster.

3 Ka tuhituhi hoki i nga kupu katoa o tenei ture ki reira, ua whiti atu koe; kia haere atu koe ki te whenua e homai ana e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe, ki te whenua e rerengia ana e te waiu, e te honi, kia pera me ta Ihowa, me ta te Atua o ou matua, i korero ai ki a koe.

And you shall write on these stones all the words of this law, as soon as you have crossed Jordan, when you are entered into the land, which the Lord God of your fathers gives you, a land flowing with milk and honey, according as the Lord God of your fathers said to you.

4 Mo reira, e whiti koutou i Horano, me whakaara enei kohatu e whakahaua nei e ahau i tenei ra ki a koutou, ki runga ki Maunga Epara ka pani hoki ki te raima.

And it shall be as soon as you are gone over Jordan, you shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, on mount Gaebal, and you shall plaster them with plaster.

5 A me hanga e koe ki reira tetahi aata ma Ihowa, ma tou Atua, hei te aata kohatu; kaua e akina iho e koe ki te rino.

And you shall build there an altar to the Lord your God, an altar of stones; you shall not lift up iron upon it.

6 Me hanga e koe te aata ma Ihowa, ma tou Atua, ki nga kohatu toitu: ka whakaeke ai i nga tahunga tinana ma Ihowa, ma tou Atua, ki runga:

Of whole stones shall you build an altar to the Lord your God, and you shall offer upon it whole burnt offerings to the Lord your God.

7 Patua hoki nga whakahere mo te pai, a kainga ki reira; me te koa ano ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua.

And you shall there offer a peace-offering; and you shall eat and be filled, and rejoice before the Lord your God.

8 Ka tuhituhi hoki i nga kupu o tenei ture ki nga kohatu, kia marama tonu.

And you shall write upon the stones all this law very plainly.

9 I korero ano a Mohi ratou ko nga tohunga, ko nga Riwaiti, ki a Iharaira, i mea, Noho puku mai, a whakarongo, e Iharaira; no tenei ra i meinga ai koe hei iwi mo Ihowa, mo tou Atua.

And Moses and the priests the Levites spoke to all Israel, saying, Be silent and hear, O Israel; this day you are become a people to the Lord your God.

10 Na me whakarongo koe ki te reo o Ihowa, o tou Atua, me mahi hoki i ana whakahau, me ana tikanga e whakahaua atu nei e ahau ki a koe i tenei ra.

And you shall listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and shall do all his commands, and his ordinances, as many as I command you this day.

11 I whakahau hoki a Mohi i te iwi i taua rangi ano, i mea,

And Moses charged the people on that day, saying,

12 Ko enei e tu ki runga ki Maunga Keritimi hei manaaki i te iwi, ua whiti atu koutou i Horano; ko Himiona, ko Riwai, ko Hura, ko Ihakara, ratou ko Hohepa, ko Pineamine:

These shall stand to bless the people on mount Garizin having gone over Jordan; Symeon, Levi, Judas, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin.

13 Ko enei e tu ki runga ki Maunga Epara hei kanga; ko Reupena, ko Kara, ko Ahera, ko Hepurona, ko Rana, ko Napatari.

And these shall stand for cursing on mount Gaebal; Ruben, Gad, and Aser, Zabulon, Dan, and Nephthali.

14 Na ka korero nga Riwaiti, ka mea, kia nui hoki te reo, ki nga tangata katoa o Iharaira.

And the Levites shall answer and say to all Israel with a loud voice,

15 Kia kanga te tangata e hanga ana i te whakapakoko, i te mea whakairo, whakarewa ranei, e whakariharihangia nei e Ihowa, he mea mahi na te ringa o te kaimahi, e whakanoho ana hoki i taua mea ki te wahi ngaro. Ma te iwi katoa e whakahoki, e mea, A mine.

Cursed [is] the man whoever shall make a graven or molten image, an abomination to the Lord, the work of the hands of craftsmen, and shall put it in a secret place: and all the people shall answer and say, So be it.

Cursed is every man that continues not in all the words of this law to do them: and all the people shall say, So be it.
