< Tiuteronomi 1 >
1 Ko nga kupu enei i korero ai a Mohi ki a Iharaira katoa i tenei taha o Horano, i te koraha, i te mania, i te ritenga atu o Tupu, i waenganui o Parana, o Topera, o Rapana, o Hateroto, o Rihahapa.
These are the words which Moses spoke unto all Israel on this side of the Jordan, in the wilderness, in the plain opposite Suph, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Chazeroth, and Di-zahab.
2 Kia kotahi tekau ma tahi nga ra e haere atu ana i Horepa, ki te tika na maunga Heira, ka tae ai ki Kareheparena.
It is a journey of eleven days from Horeb by the way of mount Seir unto Kadesh-barnea'.
3 No te wha tekau o nga tau, no te tekau ma tahi o nga marama, no te ra tuatahi o te marama, ka korerotia e Mohi ki nga tama a Iharaira nga mea katoa i ako ai a Ihowa ki a ia mo ratou;
And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spoke unto the children of Israel, according to all that the Lord had commanded him concerning them;
4 I muri i tana patunga i a Hihona kingi o nga Amori, i noho ra i Hehepona, i a Oka hoki kingi o Pahana, i noho ra i Ahataroto, i Eterei.
After he had smitten Sichon the king of the Emorites, who dwelt in Cheshbon, and 'Og the king of Bashan, who dwelt at 'Ashtaroth in Edre'i.
5 I timata a Mohi i tenei taha o Horano, i te whenua o Moapa, te kauwhau i tenei ture: i mea ia,
On this side of the Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to explain this law, saying,
6 I korero mai a Ihowa, to tatou Atua, ki a tatou i Horepa, i mea, Ka roa to koutou noho ki tenei maunga:
The Lord our God spoke unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have tarried long enough at this mount;
7 Anga atu, hapainga atu, haere ki te maunga o nga Amori, ki nga wahi katoa hoki e tata ana ki reira, o te mania, o nga pukepuke, o te raorao, o te tonga, o te tahatika ano o te moana, ki te whenua o nga Kanaani, ki Repanona, ki te awa nui ano, ki te awa, ki Uparati.
Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mountain of the Emorites, and unto all its neighboring places, in the plain, in the mountain, and in the lowlands, and in the southern country, and by the coast of the sea, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto the Lebanon, up to the great river, the river Euphrates.
8 Nana, kua tukua atu nei e ahau te whenua ki to koutou aroaro: haere ki roto, tangohia te whenua i oati ai a Ihowa ki o koutou matua, ki a Aperahama, ki a Ihaka, ki a Hakopa kia hoatu mo ratou, mo to ratou uri hoki i muri i a ratou.
Behold, I have given up the land before you: go in and take possession of the land which the Lord hath sworn unto your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give it unto them and to their seed after them.
9 I korero ano ahau ki a koutou i taua wa, i mea, E kore e ahei ko ahau anake hei pikau i a koutou:
And I said unto you at that time, as followeth, I am not able alone to bear you:
10 Kua whakanui a Ihowa, to koutou Atua, i a koutou, a tenei koutou te rite nei inaianei ki nga whetu o te rangi te tini.
The Lord your God hath multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.
11 Ma Ihowa, ma te Atua o o koutou matua, e tapiri ano a muri i a koutou ki nga mano tini atu i a koutou e noho nei, mana koutou e manaaki, e pera ano me tana i korero ai ki a koutou!
May the Lord the God of your fathers make you a thousand times as many more as ye are; and bless you, as he hath spoken unto you.
12 Me pehea e taea ai e ahau anake ta koutou whakararu, to koutou whakataimaha, me ta koutou ngangau?
How can I by myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your burden, and your strife!
13 Whakaritea mai e koutou etahi tangata tupato, whai whakaaro, e mohiotia ana e o koutou iwi, a maku ratou e mea hei upoko mo koutou.
Furnish for yourselves wise and understanding men, and those known among your tribes, and I will place them as chiefs over you.
14 Na ka utu koutou ki ahau, ka mea, He mea pai tau e ki mai na kia meatia.
And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou hast spoken is good to do.
15 Na ka tango ahau i nga upoko o o koutou iwi, i nga mea whakaaro, e mohiotia ana, a meatia iho ratou e ahau hei upoko mo koutou, hei rangatira mo nga mano, hei rangatira mo nga rau, hei rangatira mo nga rima tekau, hei rangatira mo nga tekau, hei kaiwhakahauhau hoki mo o koutou iwi.
And I took the chiefs of your tribes, wise and known men, and I set them as heads over you, captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and captains over tens, and as officers for your tribes.
16 I ki ano ahau i taua wa ki o koutou kaiwhakawa, i mea, Whakarangona nga kupu a o koutou teina, a tetahi, a tetahi, kia tika te whakawa mo te tangata, mo tona teina, mo te tangata ke hoki e noho ana i a ia.
And I commanded your judges at that time, saying, Hear the causes between your brethren, and judge righteously, between a man and his brother, and between his stranger.
17 Kei whakaaro ki te kanohi ina whakawa, kia rite ta koutou whakarongo ki te iti, ki te rahi; kei wehi koutou i te kanohi tangata; no te mea na te Atua te whakawa; a, ko te mea e ngaro ana i a koutou, ka kawe mai ki ahau, a maku e whakarongo.
Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; the small as well as the great shall ye hear; ye shall not be afraid of any man; for the judgment belongeth to God: and the cause that is too hard for you shall ye bring unto me, and I will hear it.
18 A whakahaua ana e ahau i reira nga mea katoa e mahi ai koutou.
And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do.
19 A ka turia mai e tatou i Horepa, na haerea katoatia ana e tatou taua koraha nui, e wehingia ana, i kite ra koutou i te ara o te whenua maunga o nga Amori; i pera me ta Ihowa, me ta to tatou Atua, i ako mai ai ki a tatou; na ka tae atu ki Karehep arenea.
And we departed from Horeb, and we went through all that great and terrible wilderness, which ye have seen, by the way of the mountain of the Emorites, as the Lord our God had commanded us; and we came as far as Kadesh-barnea'.
20 Na ka mea ahau ki a koutou, Kua tae mai nei koutou ki te whenua maunga o nga Amori, ka homai nei e Ihowa, e to tatou Atua, ki a tatou.
And I said unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of the Emorites, which the Lord our God doth give unto us.
21 Nana, ka tukua nei te whenua e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki tou aroaro: haere ki runga, tangohia, kia rite ai ki ta Ihowa, ki ta te Atua o ou matua, i ki ai ki a koe; kaua e wehi, kaua hoki e pawera.
Behold, the Lord thy God hath given up the land before thee: go up and take possession of it, as the Lord the God of thy fathers hath spoken unto thee; do not fear, and be not discouraged.
22 Na ka whakatata mai koutou katoa ki ahau, ka mea, Kia tono tatou i etahi ki mua i a tatou, a ko ratou hei titiro i to tatou whenua, hei whakahoki mai i te korero ki a tatou, mo te huarahi e haere ai tatou ki runga, mo nga pa hoki ka haere atu ne i tatou ki reira.
And ye all came near unto me and said, Let us send out men before us, that they may search out for us the land, and bring us word again concerning the way by which we must go up, and the cities to which we shall come.
23 A i pai ano taua kupu ki ahau: na ka tango ahau i etahi tangata kotahi tekau ma rua i roto i a koutou, tataki kotahi o tenei iwi, o tenei iwi.
And the thing was pleasing in my eyes; and I took of you twelve men, one man for every tribe:
24 A ka tahuri ratou, ka piki ki te maunga, a ka tae ki te awaawa o Ehekora, ka tirotiro hoki a taua wahi.
And they turned and went up into the mountain, and came unto the valley of Eshcol, and spied it out.
25 A ka tango ratou i etahi o nga hua o te whenua ki o ratou ringa, a maua ana ki raro, ki a tatou, i whakahoki ake ano ratou i te kupu ki a tatou, i mea, He pai te whenua ka homai nei e Ihowa, e to tatou Atua, ki a tatou.
And they took in their hand some of the fruit of the land, and brought it down unto us; and they brought us word again, and said, The land which the Lord our God doth give us is good.
26 Heoi kihai koutou i pai ki te haere ki runga; na ka tutu ki te kupu a Ihowa, a to koutou Atua:
But you would not go up, and ye rebelled against the order of the Lord your God;
27 A amuamu ana i roto i o koutou teneti, mea ana, He kino no Ihowa ki a tatou i whakaputaina mai ai tatou e ia i te whenua o Ihipa, kia hoatu ai tatou ki te ringa o nga Amori, kia huna ai tatou.
And ye murmured in your tents, and said, On account of the hatred of the Lord toward us, hath he brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Emorites, to destroy us.
28 Kia haere tatou ki runga ki hea? kua ngohe nei hoki o tatou ngakau i ta o tatou tuakana, e mea ra, He nunui te iwi, he roroa i a tatou; ko nga pa he nui, taiepa rawa a tutuki noa ki te rangi: i kite ano hoki matou i nga tama a nga Anakimi ki rei ra.
Whither shall we go up? our brethren have made faint our heart, saying, The people is greater and taller than we; the cities are great and fortified up to heaven; and moreover the sons of the 'Anakim have we seen there.
29 Na ka mea ahau ki a koutou, Kei pawera, kei wehi i a ratou.
And I said unto you, Have no dread, nor be ye afraid of them.
30 Ko Ihowa, ko to koutou Atua, te haere nei i mua i a koutou, mana ta koutou pakanga; ka rite ki nga mea katoa i mea ai ia mo koutou ki to koutou aroaro i Ihipa;
The Lord your God who goeth before you, he it is who will fight for you; all just as he did for you in Egypt before your eyes;
31 I te koraha ano, i kite ra koe i reira i ta Ihowa, i ta tou Atua wahanga i a koe, ano he tangata e waha ana i tana tamaiti, i te ara katoa i haere na koutou, a tae noa mai ki tenei wahi.
And in the wilderness which thou hast seen, where the Lord thy God bore thee, as a man doth bear his son, on all the way that ye have gone, until ye came unto this place.
32 I tenei mea ano, kihai koutou i whakapono ki a Ihowa, ki to koutou Atua,
Yet in this thing do ye not believe in the Lord your God,
33 I haere ra i mua i a koutou i te ara, hei whakataki i tetahi wahi mo koutou, e tu ai o koutou teneti, i te po i roto i te ahi, hei whakaatu ki a koutou i te ara e haere ai koutou, a i roto i te kapua i te awatea.
Who goeth before you on the way to seek out for you a place for your encamping, in fire by night, to cause you to see on the way in which ye are to go, and in a cloud by day.
34 A ka rongo a Ihowa i o koutou reo e korero ana, na ka riri, ka oati, ka mea,
And the Lord heard the voice of your words; and he was wroth, and swore, saying,
35 E kore rawa tetahi o enei tangata o tenei whakatupuranga kino e kite i taua whenua pai i oati ai ahau kia hoatu ki o koutou matua,
Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see that good land, which I have sworn to give unto your fathers;
36 Heoi ano ko Karepe, ko te tama a Iepune, e kite ia; a ka hoatu e ahau ki a ia, ki ana tama hoki, te whenua i haerea e ia, mona i tino whai a Ihowa.
Save Caleb the son of Yephunneh, he shall see it, and to him will I give the land upon which he hath trodden, and to his children; because he hath wholly followed the Lord.
37 A i riri ano a Ihowa ki ahau, mo koutou hoki, i mea mai, E kore ano kore e tae ki reira.
also with me was the Lord angry for your sakes, saying, also thou shalt not go in thither.
38 Ko Hohua, ko te tama a Nunu, e tu ana i tou aroaro, e tae ia ki reira: whakatenatenangia ia; ta te mea mana a Iharaira e whakawhiwhi ki tera wahi.
Joshua the son of Nun, who standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: him encourage; for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.
39 Na, ko a koutou potiki, i mea na koutou ka waiho hei parau, me a koutou tama kihai nei i mohio i taua ra ki te pai, ki te kino, e tae ratou ki reira, ka hoatu ano e ahau a reira ki a ratou, a e whiwhi ratou ki tera whenua.
And your little ones, of whom ye said, They will become a prey, and your children who know not this day either good or evil, these shall go in thither; and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.
40 Ko koutou ia, tahuri atu, haere ki te koraha, na te huarahi ki te Moana Whero.
But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea.
41 Na ka utu koutou, ka mea mai ki ahau, Kua hara matou ki a Ihowa; ka haere matou ki runga, ki te whawhai, kia rite ai nga mea katoa i whakahau mai ai a Ihowa, to tatou Atua, ki a tatou. A whitikiria ano e koutou, e tera, e tera, ana mea mo te rir i, na ka mea koutou ki te piki ki te maunga.
And ye answered and said unto me, We have sinned against the Lord; we indeed will go up and we will fight, according to all that the Lord our God hath commanded us; and ye girded on every man his weapons of war, and ye insisted to go up into the mountain.
42 Katahi ka mea a Ihowa ki ahau, Mea atu ki a ratou, Kaua e haere, kaua ano e tu ki te riri; kahore hoki ahau i roto i a koutou; kei patua ki te aroaro o o koutou hoariri.
And the Lord said unto me, Say unto them, Go not up, and do not fight; for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your enemies.
43 Na ka korero ahau ki a koutou; a kihai koutou i rongo, heoi, ka tutu koutou ki te kupu a Ihowa, na hikaka ana koutou, piki ana ki te maunga.
And I spoke unto you; but ye would not hear; and ye rebelled against the order of the Lord, and you were presumptuous, and went up into the mountain.
44 Na ka puta nga Amori, e noho ana i taua maunga, ki te tu i a koutou, a whai ana i a koutou, ano he pi, patua iho koutou i Heira, a taea noatia a Horema.
And the Emorites, who dwelt in that mountain: came out against you, and they pursued you, as the bees do, and they overthrew you in Seir, as far as Chormah.
45 Na ka hoki koutou, ka tangi ki te aroaro o Ihowa; otiia kihai a Ihowa i whakarongo ki to koutou reo, kihai ano i anga tona taringa ki a koutou.
And ye returned and wept before the Lord; but the Lord hearkened not to your voice, nor gave ear unto you.
46 Na ka noho koutou ki Karehe, a maha noa nga ra, nga ra hoki i noho ai koutou.
And ye tarried in Kadesh many days, according unto the days that ye tarried there.
