Rewitikuha 19

1 I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,

The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 Korero ki te whakaminenga katoa o nga tama a Iharaira, mea atu ki a ratou, Kia tapu koutou: he tapu hoki ahau, a Ihowa, to koutou Atua.

Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: Be ye holy, because I the Lord your God am holy.

3 Me wehi tera, tera, ki tona whaea, ki tona papa, kia mau hoki ki aku hapati: ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

Let every one fear his father, and his mother. Keep my sabbaths. I am the Lord your God.

4 Kei tahuri ki te whakapakoko, kei whakarewaina he atua ma koutou: ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

Turn ye not to idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods. I am the Lord your God.

5 Ki te whakaherea ano he patunga mo te pai ki a Ihowa, hei te patunga e manakohia ai koutou.

If ye offer in sacrifice a peace offering to the Lord, that he may be favourable,

6 Me kai i te rangi ano i whakaherea ai, i te aonga ake ano hoki: a ki te toe tetahi wahi ki te toru o nga ra, me tahu ki te ahi.

You shall eat it on the same day it was offered, and the next day: and whatsoever shall be left until the third day, you shall burn with fire.

7 Ki te kainga hoki tetahi wahi i te toru o nga ra, ka whakariharihangia; e kore e manakohia:

If after two days ally man eat thereof, he shall be profane and guilty of impiety:

8 A ka waha o ratou hara e nga tangata katoa i kainga ai, no te mea kua whakanoatia te mea tapu a Ihowa; a ka hatepea atu tauta tangata i roto i tona iwi.

And shall bear his iniquity, because he hath defiled the holy thing of the Lord, and that soul shall perish from among his people.

9 Ina kotia e koutou nga hua o to koutou whenua, kaua e kotia rawatia nga kokonga o tau mara, kaua ano hoki e hamua nga toenga o au hua.

When thou reapest the corn of thy land, thou shalt not cut down all that is on the face of the earth to the very ground: nor shalt thou gather the ears that remain.

10 Kaua hoki e hamua tau mara waina, kaua ano e kohia nga karepe taka o tau mara waina; me waiho ma te rawakore, ma te tangata iwi ke: ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

Neither shalt thou gather the bunches and grapes that fall down in thy vineyard, but shalt leave them to the poor and the strangers to take. I am the Lord your God.

11 Kaua e tahae; kaua hoki e teka, kaua ano e tinihanga tetahi ki tetahi.

You shall not steal. You shall not lie, neither shall any man deceive his neighbour.

12 Kei oatitia tekatia hoki toku ingoa, kaua ano hoki e whakanoatia te ingoa o tou Atua: ko Ihowa ahau.

Thou shalt not swear falsely by my name, nor profane the name of thy God. I am the Lord.

13 Kaua e tukinotia tou hoa, kaua hoki e pahuatia: kaua nga utu o te kaimahi e takoto tonu ki a koe i te po, a tae noa ki te ata.

Thou shalt not calumniate thy neighbour, nor oppress him by violence. The wages of him that hath been hired by thee shall not abide with thee until the morning.

14 Kaua e kanga te turi, kaua ano e maka he whakatutuki ki te aroaro o te matapo; engari me wehi ki tou Atua: ko Ihowa ahau.

Thou shalt not speak evil of the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind: but thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, because I am the Lord.

15 Kei whakahaere he ina whakawa; kaua e whakaaro ki te kanohi o te rawakore, kaua hoki e whakahonoretia te kanohi o te nui: me whakawa koe mo tou hoa i runga i te tika.

Thou shalt not do that which is unjust, nor judge unjustly. Respect not the person of the poor, nor honour the countenance of the mighty. But judge thy neighbour according to justice.

16 Kaua e kopikopiko i roto i tou iwi kawekawe korero ai: kaua ano hoki e tu kia whakahekea te toto o tou hoa: ko Ihowa ahau.

Thou shalt not be a detractor nor a whisperer among the people. Thou shalt not stand against the blood of thy neighbour. I am the Lord.

17 Kei kino koe ki tou teina i roto i tou ngakau: riria marietia tou hoa, kaua e waiho he hara i runga i a ia.

Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart, but reprove him openly, lest thou incur sin through him.

18 Kaua e rapu utu, kaua hoki e mauahara ki nga tamariki a tou iwi; engari arohaina tou hoa ano ko koe: ko Ihowa ahau.

Seek not revenge, nor be mindful of the injury of thy citizens. Thou shalt love thy friend as thyself. I am the Lord.

19 Kia mau ki aku tikanga. Kaua e whakatupuria he uri mo au kararehe ki tera atu tu karerehe: kaua e whakauruurua nga purapura e whakatongia e koe ki tau mara: kaua ano hoki e meatia ki a koe he kakahu ko tetahi wahi he rinena, ko tetahi he huruhur u.

Keep ye my laws. Thou shalt not make thy cattle to gender with beasts of any other kind. Thou shalt not sow thy field with different seeds. Thou shalt not wear a garment that is woven of two sorts.

20 Ki te takoto puremu hoki tetahi ki te wahine pononga kua oti te taumau ma te tane, ki te mea kihai i utua, i whakahokia, kihai ano hoki i tukua kia haere noa atu; ka whiua raua; e kore raua e whakamatea, no te mea kihai ia i tukua kia haere noa atu.

If a man carnally lie with a woman that is a bondservant and marriageable, and yet not redeemed with a price, nor made free: they both shall be scourged, and they shall not be put to death, because she was not a free woman.

21 A me kawe e te tane tana whakahere mo te he ki a Ihowa, ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, he hipi toa hei whakahere mo te he.

And for his trespass he shall offer a ram to the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony:

22 A ka whakamarie te tohunga mona ki te hipi toa, ki te whakahere mo te he ki te aroaro o Ihowa, mo tona hara i hara ai; a ku murua tona hara i hara ai.

And the priest shall pray for him and for his sin before the Lord, and he shall have mercy on him, and the sin shall be forgiven.

23 E tae hoki koutou ki te whenua, a ka whakatongia e koutou nga rakau kai katoa; me waiho nga hua hei mea kokotikore, kia toru nga tau e waiho ai e koutou hei mea kokotikore: e kore e kainga.

When you shall be come into the land, and shall have planted in it fruit trees, you shall take away the firstfruits of them: the fruit that comes forth shall be unclean to you, neither shall you eat of them.

24 I te wha ia o nga tau ka tapu nga hua katoa o reira, hei whakamoemiti ki a Ihowa.

But in the fourth year, all their fruit shall be sanctified, to the praise of the Lord.

25 Engari i te rima o nga tau me kai e koutou nga hua o reira, a ka maha ake ona hua ma koutou: ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

And in the fifth year you shall eat the fruits thereof, gathering the increase thereof. I am the Lord your God.

26 Kaua e kainga tototia tetahi mea: kaua ano hoki e rapu tikanga i nga tohu, i nga kapua.

You shall not eat with blood. You shall not divine nor observe dreams.

27 Kaua e whakaporotakatia nga taha o o koutou mahunga, kaua ano hoki e whakaahuatia kinotia nga taha o tou pahau.

Nor shall you cut your hair roundwise: nor shave your beard.

28 Kaua e haea o koutou kikokiko mo te tapapaku, kaua ano hoki e taia he tohu ki a koutou: ko Ihowa ahau.

You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh, for the dead, neither shall you make in yourselves any figures or marks: I am the Lord.

29 Kaua e whakanoatia tau tamahine, e meinga hei wahine kairau; kei riro te whenua i te kairau, a ka ki te whenua i te kino.

Make not thy daughter a common strumpet, lest the land be defiled, and filled with wickedness.

30 Kia mau ki aku hapati, kia hopohopo hoki ki toku wahi tapu: ko Ihowa ahau.

Keep ye my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary. I am the Lord.

31 Kaua e whakaaro atu ki nga waka atua, kaua ano hoki e whai atu ki nga mata maori, whakapokea ai e ratou: ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

Go not aside after wizards, neither ask any thing of soothsayers, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God.

32 Me whakatika ake koe i te aroaro o te matenga hina, me whakahonore hoki te mata o te koroheke, me wehi ano hoki ki tou Atua: ko Ihowa ahau.

Rise up before the hoary head, and honour the person of the aged man: and fear the Lord thy God. I am the Lord.

33 Ki te noho hoki te tangata iwi ki ki a koe, ki tou whenua, kaua koutou e mahi i te kino ki a ia.

If a stranger dwell in your land, and abide among you, do not upbraid him:

34 Ki ta koutou kia rite ki tetahi o o koutou tangata whenua te manene e noho ana i a koutou, arohaina ia ano ko koe; he manene hoki koutou i mua, i te whenua o Ihipa: ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

But let him be among you as one of the same country: and you shall love him as yourselves: for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.

35 Kei he ta koutou whakahaere ina whakawa, i te ruri ranei, i te pauna taimaha ranei, i te mehua ranei.

Do not any unjust thing in judgment, in rule, in weight, or in measure.

36 Kia tika a koutou pauna, kia tika nga whakataimaha, kia tika te epa, kia tika hoki te hine: ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua, i kawe mai nei i a koutou i te whenua o Ihipa.

Let the balance be just and the weights equal, the bushel just, and the sextary equal. I am the Lord your God, that brought you out of the land of Egypt.

37 Mo reira kia mau ki aku tikanga katoa, me aku whakaritenga katoa, mahia ano hoki: ko Ihowa ahau.

Keep all my precepts, and all my judgments, and do them. I am the Lord.
