Rewitikuha 17
1 I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Korero ki a Arona, ki ana tama, ki nga tama katoa a Iharaira, mea atu ki a ratou, Ko te mea tenei i whakahau ai a Ihowa, i mea ai,
Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and say unto them, This is the thing which Jehovah hath commanded, saying,
3 Ki te patua e tetahi tangata o te whare o Iharaira he kau, he reme, he koati ranei, i roto i te puni, ki te patua ranei e ia ki waho o te puni,
Every one of the house of Israel that slaughtereth an ox, or sheep, or goat, in the camp, or that slaughtereth it out of the camp,
4 A e kore e kawea ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, kia whakaherea he whakahere ki a Ihowa ki mua i te tapenakara o Ihowa; ka whakairia he toto ki taua tangata; kua whakaheke toto ia; a ka hatepea atu taua tangata i roto i tona iw i:
and doth not bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting to present it as an offering to Jehovah, before the tabernacle of Jehovah, blood shall be reckoned unto that man: he hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people,
5 He mea kia kawea ai e nga tama a Iharaira a ratou patunga e whakaherea ana e ratou i te mata o te parae, kia kawea ai hoki ki a Ihowa, ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakatoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, ki te tohunga, ka patu ai hei whakahere mo te pai ki a Ihowa.
to the end that the children of Israel bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, that they bring them to Jehovah, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting, unto the priest, and sacrifice them as sacrifices of peace-offerings to Jehovah.
6 A ka tauhiuhia te toto e te tohunga ki te aata a Ihowa i te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, me tahu ano e ia te ngako hei kakara reka ki a Ihowa.
And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of Jehovah, at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and burn the fat for a sweet odour to Jehovah.
7 A ka mutu a ratou patunga tapu ki nga rewera i whaia nei e ratou, puremu atu ai. Hei tikanga pumau tenei ki a ratou i o ratou whakatupuranga.
And they shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices unto demons, after whom they go a whoring. This shall be an everlasting statute unto them for their generations.
8 Me ki atu ano ki a ratou, Ki te whakaherea e tetahi tangata o te whare o Iharaira, o nga manene ranei i roto i a koutou, tetahi tahunga tinana, patunga tapu ranei,
And thou shalt say unto them, Every one of the house of Israel, and of the strangers who sojourn among them, that offereth up a burnt-offering or sacrifice,
9 A e kore e kawea ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, whakahere ai ki a Ihowa; ina, ka hatepea atu taua tangata i roto i tona iwi.
and bringeth it not to the entrance of the tent of meeting, to offer it up to Jehovah — that man shall be cut off from his peoples.
10 Ki te kainga hoki tetahi toto e tetahi tangata o te whare o Iharaira, o nga manene ranei i roto i a koutou; ka u atu toku mata ki taua wairua i kainga ai te toto, a ka hatepea atu e ahau i roto i tona iwi.
And every one of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who sojourn among them, that eateth any manner of blood, — I will set my face against the soul that hath eaten blood, and will cut him off from among his people;
11 Kei roto hoki i te toto te oranga o te kikokiko; kua hoatu ano e ahau ki a koutou mo runga i te aata, hei whakamarie mo o koutou wairua: ko te toto hoki, na tona ora, te mea hei whakamarie.
for the soul of the flesh is in the blood; and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls, for it is the blood that maketh atonement for the soul.
12 Koia ahau i mea ai ki nga tama a Iharaira, Kaua tetahi o koutou e kai toto, kaua ano hoki te manene i roto i a koutou e kai toto.
Therefore have I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall the stranger who sojourneth among you eat blood.
13 Ki te whai hoki tetahi o nga tama a Iharaira, o nga manene ranei i roto i a koutou, a ka mau tetahi kirehe, tetahi manu ranei e tika ana kia kainga: me riringi ona toto, ka tanu ai ki te puehu.
And every one of the children of Israel, and of the strangers who sojourn among them, that catcheth in the hunt a beast or fowl that may be eaten, he shall pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with earth;
14 No te mea ko te toto o te kikokiko e kotahi katoa ana me te ora o te kikokiko: koia ahau i mea ai ki nga tama a Iharaira, Kaua rawa e kainga te toto o tetahi kikokiko: ko te toto hoki te ora o nga kikokiko katoa: ki te kainga e tetahi, ka hatepe a atu.
for as to the life of all flesh, its blood is the life in it; and I have said unto the children of Israel, Of the blood of no manner of flesh shall ye eat, for the life of all flesh is its blood: whoever eateth it shall be cut off.
15 Ki te kainga hoki e tetahi te mea i mate maori, te mea ranei i haea e te kirehe, ahakoa tangata whenua, iwi ke ranei, me horoi ona kakahu, me ia ano me horoi ki te wai, ka poke hoki a ahiahi noa: katahi ka kore te poke.
And every soul that eateth of a dead carcase, or of that which was torn, be it one home-born, or a stranger, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even: then he shall be clean.
16 A ki te kahore e horoia e ia, ki te kahore hoki e horoia tona tinana, na ka waha e ia tona kino.
And if he wash them not nor bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his iniquity.
