Tiuteronomi 34
1 Na ka piki atu a Mohi i nga mania o Moapa ki Maunga Nepo, ki te tihi o Pihika, e titiro ana ki Heriko. A whakakitea ana e Ihowa ki a ia te whenua katoa o Kireara a tae noa ki Rana;
Then Moses climbed up from the plains in the Moab [region] to the top of Pisgah Peak on Nebo Mountain, across [the Jordan River] from Jericho. There Yahweh showed him all the land [that the Israelis would occupy]. He showed him the Gilead [region] as far north as Dan [city];
2 A Napatari katoa, me te whenua o Eparaima, o Manahi hoki, te whenua katoa hoki o Hura, tae noa atu ki te moana whakamutunga mai;
all [the land that the tribe of] Naphtali would occupy; all the land [that the tribes] of Ephraim and Manasseh [had occupied]; all the land [that the tribe of] Judah would occupy as far west as the Mediterranean sea;
3 Te tonga me te mania i te papatairitetanga o Heriko, o te pa nikau, a Toara atu ana.
the desert [area in the south part of Judah]; and the [Jordan] Valley that extends from Jericho [in the north] to Zoar [city in the south].
4 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, Ko te whenua tenei i oati ai ahau ki a Aperahama, ki a Ihaka, ki a Hakopa, i mea ai, Ka hoatu e ahau a reira ki ou uri: kua meinga koe e ahau kia kite a kanohi i reira, otiia e kore koe e whiti ki reira.
Then Yahweh said to him, “You have now seen this land that I solemnly promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ I have allowed you to see it [from a distance], but you will not go there.”
5 Na ka mate a Mohi, te pononga a Ihowa ki reira, ki te whenua o Moapa, ka pera me ta Ihowa i korero ai.
So Moses, who [always] served Yahweh [faithfully], died there [on that mountain] in the Moab [region], which is what Yahweh said would happen.
6 A tanumia iho ia e ia ki tetahi kokoru o te whenua o Moapa, i te ritenga o Petepeoro: otiia kahore tetahi tangata e mohio ana ki tona urupa a mohoa noa nei.
Yahweh buried Moses’ body in a valley in the Moab [region], opposite/near Beth-Peor [town], but no one to this day knows where Yahweh buried him.
7 A kotahi rau e rua tekau nga tau o Mohi i tona matenga: kahore ano i ataruatia ona kanohi, kahore ano hoki i heke noa tona kaiotatanga.
Moses was 120 years old when he died, but he was still very strong, and he could still see [MTY] very well.
8 Na uhungatia ana a Mohi e nga tama a Iharaira i nga mania o Moapa, e toru tekau nga ra: a taka noa nga ra i uhungatia ai, i tangihia ai a Mohi.
The Israeli people mourned for him in the plains of the Moab [region] for 30 days.
9 A ki tonu a Hohua, te tama a Nunu, i te wairua o te matauranga; na Mohi hoki i whakapa ona ringa ki runga ki a ia; a rongo ana ki a ia nga tama a Iharaira, mea ana i nga mea i whakahaua e Ihowa ki a Mohi.
God caused Joshua to be very wise, because Moses had put his hands on Joshua [to appoint him to be their new leader]. The Israeli people obeyed Joshua, and they obeyed all the commands that Yahweh had given to Moses to tell to the Israeli people.
10 A kahore ano kia ara i roto i a Iharaira i muri nei tetahi atu poropiti hei rite mo Mohi, i mohio nei a Ihowa ki a ia, titiro atu, titiro mai;
Since the time that Moses [lived], there has never been a prophet in Israel like him. Yahweh spoke to him face-to-face/directly.
11 Ara mo nga tohu katoa, mo nga merekara i unga ai ia e Ihowa ki te mahi i te whenua o Ihipa, ki a Parao ratou ko ona tangata katoa, ki tona whenua katoa hoki;
No other prophet has performed all the kinds of [DOU] miracles that Yahweh sent Moses to perform in front of the king of Egypt, his officials, and all [HYP] the people of Egypt.
12 Mo nga mahi katoa hoki a te ringa kaha, mo nga mea whakawehi nui i meatia e Mohi ki te aroaro o Iharaira katoa.
No other prophet has been able to do all the great and terrifying things that Moses did while all the Israelis watched.
