Tiuteronomi 7
1 E kawe a Ihowa, tou Atua, i a koe ki te whenua e haere atu nei koe ki reira ki te tango, a ka peia nga iwi maha i tou aroaro, te Hiti, te Kirikahi, te Amori, te Kanaani, te Perihi, te Hiwi, me te Iepuhi, nga iwi e whitu, he nui ake, he kaha ake i a koe;
When the LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perrizites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou;
2 A ka tukua ratou e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki tou aroaro, na me patu ratou e koe, me whakamoti rawa ratou: kaua e whakaritea he kawenata ki a ratou, kaua hoki ratou e tohungia.
And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them before thee, thou shalt smite them [and] utterly destroy them, thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor show mercy to them:
3 Kaua hoki koe e marenarena ki a ratou; ko tau tamahine kaua e tukua atu ma tana tama, ko tana tamahine hoki kaua e tangohia ma tau tama.
Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give to his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take to thy son.
4 No te mea ka whakariroia ketia e ia tau tama, kei whai i ahau, kia mahi ai ratou ki nga atua ke: a ka mura te riri o Ihowa ki a koutou, ka huna whakarere hoki ia i a koe.
For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods: so will the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly.
5 Engari me penei ta koutou ki a ratou; ko a ratou aata, wahia, ko a ratou pou, pakarua, ko a ratou Aherimi, tuaina, ko a ratou whakapakoko, tahuna ki te ahi:
But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire.
6 No te mea he iwi tapu koe na Ihowa, na tou Atua: i whiriwhiria ai koe e e Ihowa, e tou Atua, kia waiho ai hei iwi motuhake mana i nga iwi katoa i te mata o te whenua.
For thou [art] a holy people to the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people to himself, above all people that [are] upon the face of the earth.
7 Ehara i te nui no koutou i nga iwi katoa i matenui ai a Ihowa ki a koutou, i whiriwhiri ai i a koutou; he iti rawa hoki koutou i nga iwi katoa;
The LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye [were] the fewest of all people:
8 Engari he aroha no Ihowa ki a koutou, he whakamana hoki nana i te oati i oati ai ia ki o koutou matua, i whakaputa mai ai a Ihowa i a koutou ki te ringa kaha, i hoko ai i a koe i roto i te whare pononga, i te ringa hoki o Parao, o te kingi o Ihip a.
But because the LORD loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn to your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of bond-men, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
9 Na kia mohio koe ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, ko te Atua ia, ko te Atua pono, e pupuri ana i te kawenata, i te atawhai mo te hunga e aroha ana ki a ia, e pupuri ana i ana whakahau a mano noa nga whakatupuranga;
Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he [is] God, the faithful God, who keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations:
10 E hoatu ana ano e ia ki to ratou aroaro te utu mo te hunga e kino ana ki a ia, ara he whakangaro mo ratou: e kore ia e whakaroa ki te tangata e kino ana ki a ia, ka hoatu ano e ia he utu ki tona aroaro.
And repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face.
11 Ina, puritia nga whakahau, nga tikanga, me nga whakaritenga e whakahau nei ahau ki a koe i tenei ra kia mahia.
Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which I command thee this day, to do them.
12 A tenei ake, ki te rongo koutou ki enei whakaritenga, ki te puritia, ki te mahia, na ka whakamana e Ihowa, e tou Atua, te kawenata ki a koe, me te atawhai i oati ai ia ki ou matua:
Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these judgments, and keep, and do them, that the LORD thy God will keep to thee the covenant and the mercy which he swore to thy fathers:
13 A ka aroha ia ki a koe, ka manaaki i a koe, ka whakanui hoki i a koe, ka manaaki ano hoki i te hua o tou kopu, i te hua o tou oneone, i tau witi, i tau waina, i tau hinu, i nga whanau a au kau, i nga kahui o au hipi, ki te whenua i oati ai ia ki ou matua kia hoatu ki a koe.
And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee: he will also bless thy children, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy wine, and thy oil, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he swore to thy fathers to give thee.
14 Ka manaakitia koe, nui atu i nga iwi katoa: e kore e pakoko te tane, te wahine ranei, i roto i a koe, i roto ranei i au kararehe.
Thou shalt be blessed above all people: there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle.
15 Ka tangohia atu ano e Ihowa nga turorotanga katoa, e kore rawa hoki ia e whakapa ki a koe i tetahi o nga mate nanakia o Ihipa, i kite ra koe; engari ka whakapakia atu e ia ki ou hoariri katoa.
And the LORD will take away from thee all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt (which thou knowest) upon thee; but will lay them upon all [them] that hate thee.
16 A ka whakapaua e koe nga iwi katoa e hoatu nei e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe; kaua tou kanohi e tohu i a ratou: aua ano koe e mahi ki o ratou atua; he rore hoki tena mou.
And thou shalt consume all the people which the LORD thy God shall deliver to thee; thy eye shall have no pity upon them: neither shalt thou serve their gods; for that [will be] a snare to thee.
17 Ki te mea koe i roto i tou ngakau, He nui nga iwi nei i ahau; me pehea e taea ai ratou te pei e ahau?
If thou shalt say in thy heart, These nations [are] more than I, how can I dispossess them?
18 Kei wehi i a ratou, kia ata mahara ki nga mea i meatia e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a Parao, ki Ihipa katoa;
Thou shalt not be afraid of them: [but] shalt well remember what the LORD thy God did to Pharaoh, and to all Egypt;
19 Ki nga whakamatau nunui i kite ra ou kanohi, ki nga tohu, ki nga merekara, ki te ringa kaha, ki te takakau maro, i tangohia mai ai koe e Ihowa, e tou Atua: ka peratia e Ihowa, e tou Atua, nga iwi katoa e wehi na koe.
The great temptations which thy eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the out-stretched arm, by which the LORD thy God brought thee out: so shall the LORD thy God do to all the people of whom thou art afraid.
20 Ka tukua atu ano e Ihowa, e tou Atua, te horonete ki a ratou, kia moti ra ano nga mea i mahue, me nga mea i ngaro atu i ou kanohi.
Moreover, the LORD thy God will send the hornet among them, until they that are left, and hide themselves from thee, shall be destroyed.
21 Kaua e wehi i a ratou: ta te mea kei waenganui i a koe a Ihowa, tou Atua; he Atua nui ia, e wehingia ana.
Thou shalt not be affrighted at them: for the LORD thy God [is] among you, a mighty God and terrible.
22 A ka whakangaromia rikirikitia enei iwi e Ihowa, e tou Atua, i tou aroaro: e kore e ahei i a koe te huna wawe i a ratou, kei hira ake i a koe nga kirehe mohoao o te whenua.
And the LORD thy God will drive out those nations before thee by little and little: thou mayest not consume them at once, lest the beasts of the field increase upon thee.
23 Otiia ka tukua atu ratou e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki tou aroaro, a he nui te hunanga e huna ai ratou e ia, kia ngaro ra ano ratou.
But the LORD thy God shall deliver them to thee, and shall destroy them with a mighty destruction, until they are destroyed.
24 A ka hoatu e ia o ratou kingi ki tou ringa, a ka whakangaromia e koe o ratou ingoa i raro i te rangi: e kore e tu tetahi tangata ki tou aroaro, kia ngaro ra ano ratou i a koe.
And he shall deliver their kings into thy hand, and thou shalt destroy their name from under heaven: there shall no man be able to stand before thee, until thou shalt have destroyed them.
25 Ko nga whakapakoko o o ratou Atua me tahu ki te ahi: aua e minamina atu ki te hiriwa, ki te koura ranei e mau ana ki aua mea, kaua hoki e tangohia mou, kei mahangatia koe e ena mea: he mea whakarihariha hoki ena ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua.
The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire: thou shalt not desire the silver or gold [that is] on them, nor take [it] to thee, lest thou shouldst be snared in it: for it [is] an abomination to the LORD thy God.
26 Kaua hoki e maua te mea whakarihariha ki roto ki tou whare; kei kanga koe, kei peratia me taua mea: engari kia tino whakarihariha koe, kia tino anuanu; he mea hoki kua oti te kanga.
Neither shalt thou bring an abomination into thy house, lest thou shouldst be a cursed thing like it: [but] thou shalt utterly detest it, and thou shalt utterly abhor it; for it [is] a cursed thing.
