Ekoruhe 20
1 Na ka korerotia e te Atua enei kupu katoa, ka mea,
And the Lord spoke all these words:
2 Ko Ihowa ahau, ko tou Atua, naku koe i whakaputa mai i te whenua o Ihipa, i te whare pononga.
I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3 Aua etahi atua ke atu mou ki mua i ahau.
Thou shalt not have strange gods before me.
4 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:
Thou shalt not make to thyself a graven thing, nor the likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or in the earth beneath, nor of those things that are in the waters under the earth.
5 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;
Thou shalt not adore them, nor serve them: I am the Lord thy God, mighty, jealous, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me:
6 E whakaputa aroha ana hoki ki nga mano, ki te hunga e aroha ana ki ahau, e whakarite ana i aku ture.
And shewing mercy unto thousands to them that love me, and keep my commandments.
7 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.
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain: for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that shall take the name of the Lord his God in vain.
8 Kia mahara ki te ra hapati, kia whakatapua.
Remember that thou keep holy the sabbath day.
9 E ono nga ra e mahi ai koe, e mea ai hoki i au mea katoa;
Six days shalt thou labour, and shalt do all thy works.
10 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 au kararehe hoki, me tou tangata ke i roto i ou tatau;
But on the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: thou shalt do no work on it, thou nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy beast, nor the stranger that is within thy gates.
11 E ono hoki nga ra i hanga ai e Ihowa te rangi, me te whenua, te moana, me nga mea katoa i roto, a okioki ana i te ra whitu: na reira i whakapaingia ai te ra hapati e Ihowa, a whakatapua ana.
For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and the sea, and all things that are in them, and rested on the seventh day: therefore the Lord blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it.
12 Whakahonoretia tou papa me tou whaea; kia roa ai ou ra ki te whenua e homai nei e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe.
Honour thy father and thy mother, that thou mayest be longlived upon the land which the Lord thy God will give thee.
13 Kaua e patu.
Thou shalt not kill.
14 Kaua e puremu.
Thou shalt not commit adultery.
15 Kaua e tahae.
Thou shalt not steal.
16 Kaua e whakapae teka ki tou hoa.
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
17 Kaua e hiahia ki te whare o tou hoa, kaua e hiahia ki te wahine a tou hoa, ki tana pononga tane ranei, ki tana pononga wahine ranei, ki tana kau ranei, ki tana kaihe ranei, ki tetahi mea ranei a tou hoa.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house: neither shalt thou desire his wife, nor his servant, nor his handmaid, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is his.
18 A i kite te iwi katoa i nga whatitiri, i nga uira, i te tangi o te tetere, i te maunga hoki e paowa ana: a, i te kitenga o te iwi, ka wiri ratou, a tu rawa i tawhiti.
And all the people saw the voices and the flames, and the sound of the trumpet, and the mount smoking: and being terrified and struck with fear, they stood afar off,
19 A ka mea ratou ki a Mohi, Mau e korero mai ki a matou, a ka whakarongo atu matou; engari kaua te Atua e korero ki a matou, kei mate matou.
Saying to Moses: Speak thou to us, and we will hear: let not the Lord speak to us, lest we die.
20 Na ka mea a Mohi ki te iwi, Kaua e wehi: he whakamatau hoki i a koutou i haere mai ai te Atua, kia mau ai hoki tona wehi i o koutou kanohi, kei hara koutou.
And Moses said to the people: Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that the dread of him might be in you, and you should not sin.
21 A tu ana te iwi i tawhiti; ko Mohi ia, i whakatata ki te pouri kerekere i noho ai te Atua.
And the people stood afar off. But Moses went to the dark cloud wherein God was.
22 A ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Kia penei tau kupu ki nga tama a Iharaira, Ka kite koutou kua korero ahau i te rangi ki a koutou.
And the Lord said to Moses: Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel: You have seen that I have spoken to you from heaven.
23 Kei hanga koutou he atua ke atu ki toku taha; kei hanga koutou he atua hiriwa, he atua koura ranei, mo koutou.
You shall not make gods of silver, nor shall you make to yourselves gods of gold.
24 Hanga he aata oneone maku, ki runga patu ai koe i au tahunga tinana, i au whakahere mo te pai, i au hipi, i au kau: i nga wahi katoa e whakamaharatia ai e ahau toku ingoa ka haere atu ahau ki a koe, ka manaaki i a koe.
You shall make an altar of earth unto me, and you shall offer upon it your holocausts and peace offerings, your sheep and oxen, in every place where the memory of my name shall be: I will come to thee, and will bless thee.
25 A ki te hanga koe i te aata kohatu maku, kei hanga e koe ki te kohatu hahau; ki te hapai hoki koe i tau toki ki taua mea, kua whakanoatia e koe.
And if thou make an altar of stone unto me, thou shalt not build it of hewn stones: for if thou lift up a tool upon it, it shall be defiled.
26 Kaua ano e piki na te arawhata ki toku aata, kei kitea koe i reira e tu tahanga ana.
Thou shalt not go up by steps unto my altar, lest thy nakedness be discovered.
