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 has spoken to all Israel beyond the Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain opposite Suph, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, 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 takes] eleven days [to go] from Horeb, the way of Mount Seir, to 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 comes to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first of the month, Moses has spoken to the sons of Israel according to all that YHWH has 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 his striking Sihon king of the Amorite who is dwelling in Heshbon, and Og king of Bashan who is dwelling in Ashtaroth in Edrei.

5 I timata a Mohi i tenei taha o Horano, i te whenua o Moapa, te kauwhau i tenei ture: i mea ia,

Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, Moses has begun 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:

“Our God YHWH has spoken to us in Horeb, saying, For you dwell at this mountain long enough;

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 and journey for yourselves, and go to the mountain of the Amorite, and to all its neighboring places in the plain, in the hill-country, and in the low country, and in the south, and in the haven of the sea, the land of the Canaanite, and of Lebanon, as far as the great river, the Euphrates River;

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.

see, I have set the land before you; go in and possess the land which YHWH has sworn to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to 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 speak to you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you by myself;

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.

your God YHWH has multiplied you, and behold, today you [are] as the stars of the heavens 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!

YHWH, God of your fathers, is adding to you, as you [are], one thousand times, and blesses you as He has spoken to you.

12 Me pehea e taea ai e ahau anake ta koutou whakararu, to koutou whakataimaha, me ta koutou ngangau?

How do I bear your pressure, and your burden, and your strife by myself?

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.

Provide wise and understanding men for yourselves that are known to your tribes, and I set them for your heads;

14 Na ka utu koutou ki ahau, ka mea, He mea pai tau e ki mai na kia meatia.

and you answer me and say, The thing which you have 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 take the heads of your tribes, wise men that are known, and I appoint them [as] heads over you, princes of thousands, and princes of hundreds, and princes of fifties, and princes of tens, and authorities 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 command your judges at that time, saying, Listen between your brothers—then you have judged [in] righteousness between a man, and his brother, and his sojourner;

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.

you do not discern faces in judgment; you hear the little as well as the great; you are not afraid of the face of any, for the judgment is God’s, and the thing which is too hard for you, you bring near to me, and I have heard it.

18 A whakahaua ana e ahau i reira nga mea katoa e mahi ai koutou.

And I command you at that time all the things which you 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 journey from Horeb, and go [through] all that great and fearful wilderness which you have seen, the way of the hill-country of the Amorite, as our God YHWH has commanded us, and we come to 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 say to you, You have come to the hill-country of the Amorite, which our God YHWH is giving to 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.

see, your God YHWH has set the land before you; go up, possess, as YHWH, God of your fathers, has spoken to you; do not fear, nor be frightened.

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 you come near to me, all of you, and say, Let us send men before us, and they search the land for us, and they bring us back word [concerning] the way in which we go up into it, and the cities to which we come in;

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 is good in my eyes, and I take twelve men from you, one man for the 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 turn and go up to the hill-country, and come to the Valley of Eshcol, and spy 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 take in their hand from the fruit of the land, and bring [it] down to us, and bring us back word, and say, The land is good which our God YHWH is giving to us.

26 Heoi kihai koutou i pai ki te haere ki runga; na ka tutu ki te kupu a Ihowa, a to koutou Atua:

And you have not been willing to go up, and you provoke the mouth of your God YHWH,

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 murmur in your tents, and say, In YHWH’s hating us He has brought us out of the land of Egypt, to give us into the hand of the Amorite—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.

to where are we going up? Our brothers have melted our heart, saying, [The] people [are] greater and taller than we; [the] cities [are] great and fortified up to the heavens, and we have also seen sons of Anakim there.

29 Na ka mea ahau ki a koutou, Kei pawera, kei wehi i a ratou.

And I say to you, Do not be terrified, nor be 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;

your God YHWH, who is going before you—He fights for you, according to all that He has done with 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 where you have seen that your God YHWH has carried you, as a man carries his son, in all the way which you have gone until your coming to this place.

32 I tenei mea ano, kihai koutou i whakapono ki a Ihowa, ki to koutou Atua,

And in this thing you are not steadfast in your God YHWH,

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 is going before you in the way to search out for you a place for your encamping, in fire by night, to show you in the way in which you 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 YHWH hears the voice of your words, and is angry, and swears, 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,

Not one of these men of this evil generation sees the good land which I have sworn to give to 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.

except Caleb son of Jephunneh—he sees it, and to him I give the land on which he has trodden, and to his sons, because that he has been fully after YHWH.

37 A i riri ano a Ihowa ki ahau, mo koutou hoki, i mea mai, E kore ano kore e tae ki reira.

Moreover, YHWH has been angry with me for your sake, saying, Indeed, you do not go in there;

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 son of Nun, who is standing before you, he goes in there; strengthen him, for he causes 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 infants, of whom you have said, They are for a prey, and your sons who today have not known good and evil, they go in there, and I give it to them, and they possess it;

40 Ko koutou ia, tahuri atu, haere ki te koraha, na te huarahi ki te Moana Whero.

but you, turn and journey for yourselves toward the wilderness, 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 you answer and say to me, We have sinned against YHWH; we go up and we have fought, according to all that which our God YHWH has commanded us; and you each gird on his weapons of war, and you are ready to go up into the hill-country;

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 YHWH says to me, Say to them, You do not go up, nor fight, for I am not in your midst, and you are not struck 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 speak to you, and you have not listened, and provoke the mouth of YHWH, and act proudly, and go up into the hill-country;

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 Amorite who is dwelling in that hill-country comes out to meet you, and they pursue you as the bees do, and strike you in Seir, even to Hormah.

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 you return and weep before YHWH, and YHWH has not listened to your voice, nor has He given ear to you;

46 Na ka noho koutou ki Karehe, a maha noa nga ra, nga ra hoki i noho ai koutou.

and you dwell in Kadesh [for] many days, according to the days which you had dwelt.”
