Tiuteronomi 5
1 A i karanga atu a Mohi ki a Iharaira katoa, i mea ki a ratou, Whakarongo, e Iharaira, ki nga tikanga, ki nga whakaritenga e korerotia nei e ahau ki o koutou taringa i tenei ra, ka ako ai, ka pupuri ai, ka mahi ai.
And Moses summoned all of Israel, and he said to them: “Listen, O Israel, to the ceremonies and judgments, which I am speaking to your ears on this day. Learn them, and fulfill them in deed.
2 I whakarite a Ihowa, to tatou Atua, i te kawenata ki a tatou i Horepa.
The Lord our God formed a covenant with us at Horeb.
3 Kihai a Ihowa i whakarite i tenei kawenata ki o tatou matua; engari ki a tatou, ki a tatou nei ano, e ora katoa nei i konei inaianei.
He did not make the covenant with our fathers, but with us, who are alive and in the present time.
4 I korero a kanohi mai a Ihowa ki a koutou i te maunga i waenganui o te ahi;
He spoke to us face to face on the mountain, from the midst of fire.
5 Ko ahau i tu i waenganui o Ihowa, o koutou, i taua wa, hei whakapuaki ki a koutou i te korero a Ihowa: i wehi hoki koutou i te ahi, kihai hoki i piki ake ki te maunga; i mea ia,
I was the mediator, for I was in the middle between the Lord and you, at that time, to announce his words to you. For you were afraid of the fire, and so you did not ascend to the mountain. And he said:
6 Ko Ihowa ahau, ko tou Atua, naku koe i whakaputa mai i te whenua o Ihipa, i te whare pononga.
‘I am the Lord your God, who led you away from the land of Egypt, from the house of servitude.
7 Aua etahi atua ke atu mou ki mua i ahau.
You shall not have strange gods in my sight.
8 Kei hanga koe i te whakapakoko mou, i tetahi ritenga ranei o nga mea o te rangi i runga, o te whenua ranei i raro, o te wai ranei i raro i te whenua.
You shall not make for yourself a graven image, nor the likeness of anything, which is in heaven above, or on earth below, or which abides in the waters under the earth.
9 Kei koropiko koe ki ena mea, kei mahi ranei ki ena mea: ko Ihowa hoki ahau ko tou Atua, he Atua hae, e mea ana i nga hara o nga matua kia tau iho ki nga tamariki a te toru, te wha ra ano o nga whakatupuranga o te hunga e kino ana ki ahau;
You shall not adore and you shall not worship these things. For I am the Lord your God, a jealous God, repaying the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons to the third and fourth generation to those who hate me,
10 E whakaputa aroha ana hoki ki nga mano, ki te hunga e aroha ana ki ahau, e whakarite ana i aku ture.
and acting with mercy in thousands of ways to those who love me and keep my precepts.
11 Kei whakahuatia noatia e koe te ingoa o Ihowa, o tou Atua: e kore hoki a Ihowa e mea he harakore te tangata e whakahua noa ana i tona ingoa.
You shall not use the name of the Lord your God in vain. For he will not go unpunished who takes up his name over an unimportant matter.
12 Kia mau ki te ra hapati, kia whakatapua, kia pera me ta Ihowa, me ta tou Atua i whakahau ai ki a koe.
Observe the day of the Sabbath, so that you may sanctify it, just as the Lord your God has instructed you.
13 E ono nga ra e mahi ai koe, e mea ai hoki i au mea katoa;
For six days, you shall labor and do all your work.
14 Tena ko te ra whitu, he hapati no Ihowa, no tou Atua; kaua e mahia tetahi mahi i reira, e koe, e tau tama, e tau tamahine, e tau pononga tane, e tau pononga wahine, e tau kau, e tau kaihe, e au kararehe katoa hoki, me tou tangata ke i roto i ou tatau; kia okioki ai tau pononga tane, tau pononga wahine, kia pena ai me koe.
The seventh is the day of the Sabbath, that is, the rest of the Lord your God. You shall not do any work in it, nor shall your son, nor daughter, nor man servant, nor woman servant, nor ox, nor donkey, nor any of your cattle, nor the sojourner who is within your gates, so that your men and woman servants may rest, just as you do.
15 Kia mahara ano he pononga koe i te whenua o Ihipa, a na Ihowa, na tou Atua koe i whakaputa mai i reira, i runga i te ringa kaha, i te ringa maro: na reira i whakahau ai a Ihowa, tou Atua, i a koe kia whakaritea te ra hapati.
Remember that you also were servants in Egypt, and the Lord your God led you away from that place with a strong hand and an outstretched arm. Because of this, he has instructed you so that you would observe the Sabbath day.
16 Whakahonoretia tou papa me tou whaea, kia rite ki ta Ihowa, ki ta tou Atua i whakahau aia ki a koe; kia roa ai ou ra, kia whiwhi ai hoki koe ki te pai i runga i te whenua e homai nei e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe.
Honor your father and mother, just as the Lord your God has instructed you, so that you may live a long time, and so that it may be well with you in the land, which the Lord your God will give to you.
17 Aua e patu.
You shall not murder.
18 Aua e puremu.
And you shall not commit adultery.
19 Aua e tahae.
And you shall not commit theft.
20 Aua e whakapae teka ki tou hoa.
Neither shall you speak false testimony against your neighbor.
21 Aua hoki e hiahia ki te wahine a tou hoa, aua hoki e hiahia ki te whare o tou hoa, ki tana mara, ki tana pononga tane, ki tana pononga wahine, ki tana kau, ki tana kaihe, ki tetahi mea ranei a tou hoa.
You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his house, nor his field, nor his man servant, nor his woman servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything out of all that is his.’
22 Ko enei kupu i korerotia mai e Ihowa ki to koutou huihui katoa i te maunga, i waenganui o te ahi, o te kapua, o te pouri hoki, he nui ano hoki te reo; a kahore atu ano ana kupu: a tuhituhia iho e ia ki nga papa kohatu e rua, a homai ana ki ahau.
The Lord spoke these words to the entire multitude of you on the mountain, from the midst of the fire and the cloud and the darkness, with a loud voice, adding nothing more. And he wrote them on two tablets of stone, which he delivered to me.
23 A, no to koutou rongonga i te kupu i roto i te pouri, ko te maunga hoki e ka ana i te ahi, ka whakatata mai ki ahau, ara nga upoko katoa o o koutou iwi, me o koutou kaumatua;
Then, after you heard the voice from the midst of the darkness, and you saw the mountain burning, you approached me, all you leaders of the tribes and those greater by birth. And you said:
24 A ka mea mai, Na, kua whakakite mai a Ihowa, to tatou Atua, i tona kororia, i tona nui ki a tatou, kua rongo hoki tatou i tona reo i roto i te ahi; kua kite tatou i tenei ra ka korero a Ihowa ki te tangata, a ka ora ano ia.
‘Behold, the Lord our God has revealed to us his majesty and his greatness. We have heard his voice from the midst of fire, and we have proven today that, though God is speaking with man, man has lived.
25 Na kia mate matou hei aha? ka pau hoki matou i tenei ahi nui; ki te rongo ano matou i te reo o Ihowa, o to tatou Atua, na ka mate matou.
Therefore, why should we die, and why should this very great fire devour us? For if we hear the voice of the Lord our God any longer, we will die.
26 Ko wai hoki o nga kikokiko katoa i rongo ki te reo o te Atua ora e korero ana i roto i te ahi, me tatou nei i rongo, a ia ora ano?
What is all flesh, that it would hear the voice of the living God, who speaks from the midst of fire, just as we have heard it, and be able to live?
27 Mau e whakatata atu, e whakarongo ki nga mea katoa e korero ai a Ihowa, to tatou Atua; mau hoki e korero ki a matou nga mea katoa e korero ai a Ihowa, to tatou Atua, ki a koe; a ma matou e whakarongo, e mahi.
Instead, you should approach and listen to all the things that the Lord our God will say to you. And you will speak to us, and we will listen and do these things.’
28 A ka rongo mai a Ihowa i te puaki o a koutou kupu, i a koutou e korero ana ki ahau; na ka mea a Ihowa ki ahau, Kua rongo ahau i te puaki mai o nga kupu a te iwi nei, i korero ra ratou ki a koe: he pai nga mea katoa i korero ra ratou.
But when the Lord had heard this, he said to me: ‘I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they spoke to you. All this, they have spoken well.
29 E! me i pena o ratou ngakau i roto i a ratou, te wehi i ahau, te pupuri hoki i aku whakahau katoa i nga ra katoa, kia whiwhi ai ratou ki te pai me a ratou tamariki hoki ake tonu atu!
Who will grant to them to have such a mind, so that they may fear me, and may keep all my commandments at all times, so that it may be well with them and with their sons forever?
30 Haere, mea atu ki a ratou, Hoki atu koutou ki o koutou teneti.
Go and say to them: Return to your tents.
31 Ko koe ia, e tu ki konei taua, a maku e korero ki a koe nga whakahau katoa, me nga tikanga, me nga whakaritenga e whakaako ai koe ki a ratou, hei mahi ma ratou ki te whenua e hoatu nei e ahau kia nohoia e ratou.
But as for you, stand here with me, and I will speak to you all my commandments and ceremonies, as well as judgments. These, you shall teach them, so that they may do them in the land, which I will give to them as a possession.
32 Na, kia mahara koutou kia pera te mahi me ta Ihowa, me ta to koutou Atua, i whakahau ai ki a koutou: kaua e peka ke ki matau, ki maui.
And so, keep and do the things which the Lord God has commanded you. You shall not turn aside, neither to the right, nor to the left.
33 Haere i nga huarahi katoa i whakahau ai a Ihowa, to koutou Atua ki a koutou, kia ora ai koutou, kia whiwhi ai ki te pai, kia roa ai hoki o koutou ra ki te whenua ka riro nei i a koutou.
For you shall walk in the way that the Lord your God has instructed, so that you may live, and it may be well with you, and your days may be extended in the land of your possession.’”
