Rewitikuha 7

1 Na ko te ture tenei mo te whakahere mo te he: he tino tapu tena.

“These are the regulations concerning the offerings to be made by people who are guilty of not giving to me the things that are required to be given to me. Those are very sacred offerings.

2 Hei te wahi e patua ai te tahunga tinana patua ai e ratou te whakahere mo te he: me tauhiuhi ano e ia ona toto ki te aata a tawhio noa.

Each animal that is to be offered by such people must be slaughtered in the same place where the animals that will be completely burned [on the altar] are slaughtered, and their blood must be sprinkled against all sides of the altar.

3 Me whakahere ano e ia ona ngako katoa; ko te hiawero momona me te ngako e whiwhiwhiwhi ana ki nga whekau,

All their fat, the fat tails that are cut close to the backbone, and all the fat that covers the inner parts of the animals or which is attached to them, must be burned [on the altar].

4 Me nga whatukuhu e rua, me to reira ngako, tera i te hope, me te taupa i te ate, me nga whatukuhu, me tango tera e ia:

That includes the kidneys with their fat near the lower back muscle, and the protruding lobe that is attached to the liver.

5 A ma te tohunga e tahu ki runga ki te aata, hei whakahere ahi ki a Ihowa: he whakahere mo te he tena.

The priest must burn them on the altar to be offerings to me, Yahweh. They are an offering for the people to be forgiven for not doing what they were required to do.

6 Ma nga tane katoa i roto i nga tohunga e kai tena: me kai ki te wahi tapu: he mea tapu rawa tena.

All the males in the priest’s family are permitted to eat its meat, but it must be eaten in a sacred place, because it is very sacred.

7 Ko te whakahere hara, ko te whakahere mo te he, rite tonu raua: kotahi ano te ture mo ena; ka riro ma te tohunga nana tena i mea hei whakamarie.

“The regulation is the same for the offerings [to enable people to be forgiven for the sins they have committed] and the offerings for when they are guilty of not giving to me the things that are required to be given to me. The meat of those offerings belongs to the priest who offers them in order that the people will be forgiven.

8 A, ko te tohunga nana i whakahere te tahunga tinana a tetahi tangata, ma taua tohunga ano te hiako o te tahunga tinana i whakaherea e ia.

The priest who slaughters an animal that will be completely burned on the altar is permitted to keep the animal’s hide for himself.

9 Me te whakahere totokore katoa, nga mea e tunua ana ki te oumu, me nga mea katoa e paraipanatia ana, e meatia ana ranei ki te paraharaha, ma te tohunga ena nana i whakahere.

Offerings of things made from grain that are baked in an oven or cooked in a pan or (in a shallow pan/on a griddle) belong to the priest who makes those offerings [for another person].

10 Ko nga whakahere totokore katoa ia i konatunatua ki te hinu, nga mea maroke ranei, ma nga tama katoa a Arona; kia rite te wahi ma tetahi, ma tetahi.

And offerings of things made from grain, whether they were mixed with olive oil or not, also belong to the sons of Aaron.”

11 A ko te ture tenei mo te patunga mo te pai e tapaea ana ki a Ihowa.

These are the regulations concerning the offerings that people make to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh]:

12 Ki te whakaherea hei whakawhetai, na, me tapae tahi me te patunga whakawhetai nga keke rewenakore i konatunatua ki te hinu, me etahi mea angiangi ano hoki, hei nga mea rewenakore i pania ki te hinu, me etahi keke paraoa pai i konatunatua ki te h inu, a tunua iho.

“If you bring an offering to thank [Yahweh], along with [the animal that you slaughter] you must offer loaves of bread made with olive oil mixed [with the flour] but without yeast, and wafers that are made without yeast but with olive oil smeared on them, and loaves made from fine flour with olive oil well mixed with the flour.

13 Me tapae ano e ia, hei tapiri mo nga keke, etahi taro rewena hei whakahere mana, i runga ano i te patunga whakawhetai o ana whakahere mo te pai.

Along with that offering to thank Yahweh, you must bring an offering of loaves made with yeast.

14 A me tapae tetahi o tena, ara o te whakahere katoa, hei whakahere hapahapai ki a Ihowa, a ma te tohunga tena, ma te kaitauhiuhi o te toto o nga whakahere mo te pai.

You must bring one of each kind for an offering to Yahweh, but they belong to the priest who sprinkles against the altar the blood of the animal that is [slaughtered as an offering] to maintain fellowship with Yahweh.

15 Na ko te kikokiko o ana whakahere mo te pai, ara whakawhetai, me kai i te ra ano i tapaea ai; kei whakatoea tetahi wahi mo te ata.

The meat of that offering must be eaten on the day that it is offered; none of it should be left to [be eaten on] the next day.

16 Ki te mea ia he kupu taurangi te patunga o tana whakahere, he whakahere noa ake ranei, me kai i te ra ano i whakaherea ai e ia tana patunga: a i te aonga ake me kai te toenga:

“However, if your offering is the result of a solemn promise that you made to Yahweh, or if it is an offering that you make (voluntarily/without being required to), you are permitted to eat some of the meat on the day it is offered, but anything that is left may be eaten on the next day.

17 Ko te wahi ia o te kokokiko o te patunga i toe ki te ra tuatoru, me tahu ki te ahi.

But any meat that is left until the third day must be completely burned.

18 Na, ki te kainga he kikokiko o te patunga o ana whakahere mo te pai i te toru o nga ra, e kore e manakohia, e kore ano e kiia na te kaiwhakahere: ka waiho hei me whakarihariha, a ka waha tona kino e te tangata nana i kai.

If any meat from the offering to maintain fellowship with Yahweh is eaten on the third day, Yahweh will not accept that offering; it will be useless to offer it, because Yahweh will consider that it is worthless. Anyone who eats some of it will have to pay a penalty [to Yahweh].

19 E kore ano hoki e kainga te kikokiko i pa ki te mea poke; me tahu ki te ahi: ko te kokokiko ia me kai e nga tangata pokekore katoa:

“Meat that touches something [that God considers to be] impure must not be eaten; it must be completely burned. Anyone who has performed the rituals to become acceptable to God is allowed to eat other meat [which has been offered as a sacrifice].

20 Ki te kainga ia e tetahi te kikokiko o te patunga mo te pai a Ihowa, me te mau ano tona poke, ka hatepea atu tena wairua i roto i tona iwi.

But if anyone who has not performed those rituals eats some of the meat of the offering to maintain fellowship with Yahweh, meat that belongs to Yahweh, he must no longer be allowed to associate with God’s people.

21 Me te tangata ano i pa ki te mea poke, ki te poke tangata, ki te kararehe poke ranei, ki tetahi poke whakarihariha ranei, a ka kai i te kiko o te patunga mo te pai a Ihowa, ka hatepea atu taua wairua i roto i tona iwi.

If anyone touches something that God considers to be impure and very displeasing to him, whether it is from a human or from an animal, and then he eats any of the meat of the offering to maintain fellowship with Yahweh, meat that belongs to Yahweh, he must no longer be allowed to associate with God’s people.”

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

Yahweh also said to Moses/me:

23 Korero ki nga tama a Iharaira, mea atu, Kei kainga tetahi ngako, o te kau, o te hipi, o te koati.

“Say this to the Israeli people: ‘Do not eat any of the fat of cattle or sheep or goats.

24 Me te ngako o te mea mate maori, me te ngako o te mea i haea e te kirehe, ka waiho mo nga tini meatanga ke atu: e kore rawa ia e kainga.

The fat of an animal that is found dead or that has been killed by a wild animal may be used for other purposes, but you must not eat it.

25 A ko te tangata e kai ana i te ngako o nga kararehe, e meinga nei hei whakahere ahi ma Ihowa, ina, ka hatepea atu i roto i tona iwi taua wairua nana nei i kai.

Anyone who eats the fat of an animal from which an offering has been made to Yahweh must no longer be allowed to associate with God’s people.

26 Kaua ano te toto e kainga, o te manu, o te kararehe ranei, i o koutou nohoanga katoa.

And wherever you live, you must not eat the blood of any bird or animal.

27 Ki te kai tetahi i te toto, ka hatepea atu taua wairua i roto i tona iwi.

If anyone eats blood, he must no longer be allowed to associate with God’s people.’”

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

Yahweh also said to Moses/me,

29 Ki atu ki nga tama a Iharaira, mea, atu, Ki te tapae tetahi i tana patunga mo te pai ki a Ihowa, me kawe tana whakahere ki a Ihowa, he wahi no tana patunga mo te pai:

“Tell the Israeli people this: ‘Anyone who brings an offering to maintain fellowship with Yahweh must bring part of it to be a sacrifice to Yahweh.

30 Ma ona ringa ake e kawe nga whakahere ahi ma Ihowa; ko te ngako me te uma, me kawe tena e ia kia poipoia ai te uma hei whakahere poipoi ki te aroaro o Ihowa.

He himself must bring the offering that will be burned in the fire. He must bring the fat along with the breast of the animal and lift it up in front of Yahweh to indicate that it is an offering to him.

31 A me tahu te ngako e te tohunga ki runga ki te aata; ko te uma ia ma Arona ratou ko ana tama.

The Supreme Priest must burn the fat on the altar, but the breast belongs to Aaron and all his sons.

32 Ko te huha matau o a koutou patunga mo te pai me hoatu ki te tohunga, hei whakahere hapahapai.

You must give to the Supreme Priest the right thigh of the animal that is sacrificed to maintain fellowship with Yahweh.

33 Me waiho te huha matau hei wahi ma te tama a Arona, mana nei e tapae te toto me te ngako o nga whakahere mo te pai.

The son of Aaron who offers the blood and the fat of that sacrifice must be given the right thigh of the animal as his share.

34 Kua tongohia nei hoki e ahau i nga tama a Iharaira te uma poipoi me te peke hapahapai, i roto i a ratou patunga mo te pai, a kua hoatu ki te tohunga ki a Arona ratou ko ana tama, i roto i te wahi a nga tama a Iharaira; he tikanga tuturu tenei.

From the offerings that the Israeli people give to maintain fellowship with Yahweh, he has declared that he has given to Aaron and his sons the breast that is lifted up and the right thigh that is offered; those portions must always be their regular share from the Israeli people.’”

35 No te whakawahinga tenei o Arona, no te whakawahinga hoki o ana tama, no nga whakahere ahi a Ihowa, o te ra i meinga ai ratou e ia kia whakatata ki a Ihowa, ki te mahi tohunga;

Those are the portions of the offerings brought/given to Yahweh and burned in fire that are allotted to Aaron and his sons on the day that they are set apart to serve Yahweh as priests.

36 Ko nga mea i whakahaua mai e Ihowa kia homai ki a ratou e nga tama a Iharaira i te ra i whakawahia ai ratou e ia. Hei tikanga mau tonu tenei i o ratou whakatupuranga.

Yahweh commands that on the day that the priests are appointed [MTY], the Israeli people must always give those portions to the priests.

37 Ko te ture tenei mo te tahunga tinana, mo te whakahere totokore, mo te whakahere hara, mo te whakahere mo te he, mo nga whakatohungatanga, mo nga patunga mo te pai;

Those are the regulations for the offerings that are to be completely burned on the altar, the offerings made from grain, the offerings to enable people to become acceptable to God again, the offerings for when people are guilty of not giving to Yahweh the things that are required to be given to him, the offerings given when the priests are appointed, and the offerings to maintain fellowship with Yahweh.

38 Ko ta Ihowa hoki i whakahau nei i Maunga Hinai ki a Mohi, i te ra i whakahaua ai e ia nga tama a Iharaira kia tapaea a ratou whakahere ki a Ihowa, i te koraha o Hinai.

They are regulations that Yahweh gave to Moses/me on Sinai Mountain in the Sinai Desert, on the day that he commanded the Israeli people to start bringing their offerings to him.
