Rewitikuha 8

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

Yahweh also said to Moses/me,

2 Tikina atu a Arona ratou tahi ko ana tama, me nga kakahu, me te hinu whakawahi, me te puru mo te whakahere hara, me nga hipi toa e rua, me te kete taro rewenakore;

“Bring Aaron and his sons, and bring their (special clothes/clothes [that they will wear while they do the work of priests)], the oil for anointing them, the bull to be offered to cause them to become forgiven for the sins they have committed, the two rams [to be slaughtered], and the basket containing bread made without yeast.

3 Huihuia ano hoki e koe te whakaminenga katoa ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga.

Then gather all the people at the entrance to the Sacred Tent.”

4 A rite tahi ki ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ta Mohi i mea ia; a huihuia ana te whakaminenga ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga.

Moses/I did what Yahweh told him/me to do, and all the people gathered there.

5 Na ka mea a Mohi ki te whakaminenga, Ko te mea tenei i whakahaua e Ihowa kia meatia.

Then Moses/I said to the people, “This is what Yahweh has commanded us to do.”

6 Na ka kawea mai a Arona ratou ko ana tama e Mohi, a horoia ana ratou e ia ki te wai.

Then he/I brought Aaron and his sons forward and washed them.

7 A i whakakakahuria e ia te koti ki a ia, i whitikiria hoki te whitiki, i whakakakahuria atu hoki te koroka, i meatia atu ano hoki te epora ki a ia, a whitikiria ana ki a ia te whitiki whakairo o te epora, kia mau ai te epora ki a ia.

He/I put the special tunic/shirt on Aaron, tied the sash/waistband around him, put on him the special robe, and put on him the sacred vest/apron. He/I fastened the sacred vest/apron around him, using the skillfully woven sash.

8 I whakamaua ano te kouma ki a ia: a whakanohoia ana e ia nga Urimi me nga Tumime ki te kouma.

He/I put the sacred pouch on his chest and put into it the two stones for him to use to find out what God wants.

9 A i potaea e ia te potae tohunga ki tona patenga; i maka iho ano te paraharaha koura, te karauna tapu, ki te potae tohunga, ki te wahi ki mau; ko ta Ihowa hoki i whakahau ai ki a Mohi.

Then he/I wrapped the turban around Aaron’s head, and fastened on the front of it the gold ornament, the object that showed that he was dedicated to God, like Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.

10 Na ka mau a Mohi ki te hinu whakawahi, a whakawahia ana e ia te tapenakara, me nga mea katoa i roto, hei whakatapu.

Then Moses/I took the olive oil and anointed the sacred tent and everything in it, and dedicated them [to Yahweh].

11 A e whitu ana tauhiuhinga atu i te hinu ki te aata, na whakawahia ana e ia te aata me ona oko katoa, te takotoranga wai ano me tona turanga, kia tapu ai.

He/I sprinkled some of the oil on the altar seven times. He/I anointed the altar and all the things used with it, and its huge washbasin and its stand, to dedicate them to Yahweh.

12 I ringihia ano e ia tetahi wahi o te hinu whakawahi ki runga ki te matenga a Arona, a whakawahia ana ia kia tapu.

He/I poured some of the oil on Aaron’s head and anointed him to dedicate him to Yahweh.

13 A i arahina mai e Mohi nga tama a Arona, a whakakakahuria ana nga koti ki a ratou, whitikiria ana hoki nga whitiki ki a ratou, potaea ana hoki nga potae ki a ratou; ko ta Ihowa hoki i whakahau ai ki a Mohi.

Then he/I brought forward Aaron’s sons. He/I put tunics/shirts on them, tied sashes/waistbands around them, and wrapped turbans around their heads, like Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.

14 A i kawea ano e ia te puru mo te whakahere hara: na ka popoki nga ringa a Arona ratou ko ana tama ki te matenga o te puru mo te whakaherehara.

Then he/I brought the bull for the offering to cause people to be forgiven for the sins that have committed. Then Aaron and his sons put their hands on the bull’s head.

15 A patua iho e ia; a ka tango a Mohi i te toto a pania atu ana ki tona maihao ki nga haona o te aata a tawhio noa, a horohoroa ana e ia te aata, ringihia ana hoki e ia te toto ki te turanga o te aata, a whakatapua ana, hei whakamarie mona.

Then Moses/I slaughtered the bull, [caught some of its blood in a bowl], and with his/my finger put some of that blood on the projections at the corners of the altar, to purify the altar. He/I poured the rest of the blood at the base of the altar. By doing that, he/I caused it to be a suitable place for burning sacrifices for sin.

16 Na ka tango ia i nga ngako katoa o nga whekau, me te taupa o te ate, me nga whatukuhu e rua, me to reira ngako, a tahuna ana e Mohi ki te aata.

Moses/I took all the fat that covers the inner parts of the animal, including the liver and kidneys, and burned them on the altar.

17 Ko te puru ia me tona hiako, ona kikokiko, me tona paru, i tahuna e ia ki te ahi i waho o te puni; i peratia ano me ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a Mohi.

He/I took the rest of the bull, including the hide and intestines, and burned them outside the camp, like Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.

18 I kawea ano e ia te hipi toa mo te tahunga tinana, a ka popoki nga ringa a Arona ratou ko ana tama ki te matenga o te hipi.

Then he/I brought the ram for the offering that would be completely burned [on the altar], and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.

19 A patua iho e ia; a tauhiuhia atu ana te toto e Mohi ki te aata a tawhio noa.

Then Moses/I slaughtered the ram and sprinkled its blood on all sides of the altar.

20 Na ka tapatapahia te hipi; a tahunga ana te pane e Mohi, me nga tapahanga, me te ngako.

He/I cut the ram into pieces and washed the inner parts and hind legs. Then he/I put the head, the fat, and the other parts of the ram on the altar. As it burned, the aroma of the smoke was pleasing to Yahweh. It was an offering to Yahweh that was burned, as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.

21 Na ka horoia e ia nga whekau, me nga waewae ki te wai; a tahuna katoatia ana e Mohi te hipi ki runga ki te aata: he tahunga tinana tera, he kakara reka, he whakahere ahi ki a Ihowa; ko ta Ihowa hoki i whakahau ai ki a Mohi.

22 Na ka kawea e ia te rua o nga hipi toa, te hipi mo te whakatohungatanga: a ka popoki nga ringa a Arona ratou ko ana tama ki te matenga o te hipi.

Then he/I brought the other ram, the one for consecrating the priests, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.

23 A patua iho e ia: na ka tangohia e Mohi tetahi wahi o ona toto, a pania ana e ia ki te matamata o te taringa matau o Arona, ki te koromatua ano o tona ringa matau, ki te koromatua ano hoki o tona waewae matau.

Moses/I slaughtered that ram, [drained some of its blood in a bowl], and put some of that blood on the lobes of the right ears, the thumbs of the right hands, and the big toes of the right feet of Aaron and his sons [to indicate that what they listened to and what they did and where they went should be directed by Yahweh].

24 Na ka arahina e ia nga tama a Arona, a pania ana e Mohi tetahi wahi o nga toto ki te matamata o o ratou taringa matau, ki nga koromatua hoki o o ratou ringa matau, ki nga koromatua ano hoki o o ratou waewae matau: a ka tauhiuhia e Mohi te toto k i te aata a tawhio noa.

25 Na ka tangohia e ia te ngako me te hiawero, me nga ngako katoa o nga whekau, me te taupa o te ate, me nga whatukuhu e rua, me to reira ngako, me te huha matau:

He/I picked up all the fat of the ram, its fat tail, the fat that covered the inner parts, including the fat that covered the liver and kidneys, and the right thigh of the ram.

26 I tangohia ano e ia i roto i te kete taro rewenakore i te aroaro o Ihowa, kotahi keke rewenakore, kotahi keke taro hinu me tetahi o nga mea angiangi, a maka iho e ia ki runga ki te ngako, ki runga hoki ki te huha matau:

Then from the basket containing the bread that was made without yeast, the bread which had been dedicated to Yahweh, he/I picked up one loaf of bread [made without olive oil], and one loaf that was [made by mixing the flour] with olive oil, and one wafer. He/I put those on top of the portions of fat, and put them into the hands of Aaron and his sons. Then they lifted them up in the presence of Yahweh [to indicate that it was an offering that belonged to him].

27 A hoatutia katoatia ana e ia ki nga ringa a Arona, ki nga ringa ano o ana tama, a poipoia ana hei whakahere poipoi ki te aroaro o Ihowa.

28 Na ka tangohia e Mohi i o ratou ringa, a tahuna ana ki runga ki te aata, ki runga ki te tahunga tinana: hei whakatohunga; hei kakara reka, hei whakahere ahi ki a Ihowa.

Then Moses/I took those things from their hands and burned them on the altar. That was the offering that was burned to appoint Aaron and his sons as priests. And the aroma while it burned was pleasing to Yahweh.

29 Na ka tangohia e Mohi te uma, a poipoia ana e ia hei whakahere poipoi ki te aroaro o Ihowa: i a Mohi tena wahi o te hipi toa o te whakatohungatanga; ko ta Ihowa hoki i whakakahau ai ki a Mohi.

Moses/I also took the breast of the second ram and lifted it up, as Yahweh had commanded. The breast was Moses’/my share of the ram that was sacrificed to dedicate the priests.

30 Na ka tango a Mohi i tetahi wahi o te hinu whakawahi, o te toto ano i runga i te aata, a tauhiuhia ana e ia ki a Arona, ki ona kakahu, ki a ratou tahi ano ko ana tama, ki nga kakahu ano o ana tama; a whakatapua ana e ia a Arona, ona kakahu, ana tama, me nga kakahu o ana tama.

Then Moses/I took some of the olive oil for anointing [Aaron and his sons], and some of the blood that was on the altar and sprinkled it on Aaron and his sons and on their clothes. By doing that, he/I consecrated Aaron and his sons and their clothes.

31 Na ka mea a Mohi ki a Arona ratou ko ana tama, Kohuatia te kikokiko ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga; kainga hoki ki reira me te taro i te kete o te whakatohungatanga; kia rite ki taku i whakahau ai, i mea ai, Me kai e Arona rat ou ko ana tama.

Then Moses/I said to Aaron and his sons, “Boil the meat [of the second ram] at the entrance of the Sacred Tent, and eat it there with the bread that is in the basket, like I told you to do.

32 A, ko te toenga o te kikokiko, o te taro, me tahu ki te ahi.

Burn up any of the meat and bread that remains.

33 Na kaua koutou e puta i te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga kia whitu ra ano nga ra, kia taka ra ano nga ra o to koutou whakatohungatanga: e whitu hoki nga ra e whakatohunga ai ia i a koutou.

The time for you to be set apart as priests will be seven days, so do not leave the entrance of the Sacred Tent for seven days.

34 Ko nga mea i meatia inaianei, he mea whakahau mai na Ihowa kia meatia, hei whakamarie mo koutou.

What we have done today is what Yahweh commanded to cause that you will be forgiven for your sins.

35 A me noho koutou ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga i te ao, i te po, kia whitu ra ano nga ra, ki te tiaki i nga mea a Ihowa, kei mate koutou: ko te mea hoki tenei i whakahaua ki ahau.

You must stay at the entrance of the Sacred Tent for seven days and seven nights and do what Yahweh requires, in order that you will not die [because of disobeying him. I am telling you that] because that is what Yahweh has commanded me to tell you.”

36 Na ka meatia e Arona, ratou ko ana tama, nga whakahau katoa a Ihowa, i korerotia e Mohi.

So Aaron and his sons did everything that Yahweh told Moses/me to tell them.
