Tauanga 19
1 I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi raua ko Arona, i mea,
The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
2 Ko te tikanga tenei o te ture i whakahaua e Ihowa; i mea ia, Korero ki nga tama a Iharaira kia tikina he kuao kau uha, he mea whero mau, hei te mea kahore he nawe, kahore he koa, a kahore ano hoki i utaina ki te ioka:
“This is the statute of the law which the LORD has commanded. Tell the children of Israel to bring you a red heifer without spot, in which is no defect, and which was never yoked.
3 Me hoatu e koutou ki a Ereatara, tohunga, mana ia e kawe ki waho o te puni, me patu hoki e tetahi ki tona aroaro:
You shall give her to Eleazar the priest, and he shall bring her outside of the camp, and one shall kill her before his face.
4 Na ka tango a Ereatara, tohunga, i tetahi wahi o ona toto ki tona maihao, kia whitu ana tauhiuhinga i ona toto ki te roro tonu o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga:
Eleazar the priest shall take some of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle her blood towards the front of the Tent of Meeting seven times.
5 Na ma tetahi e tahu te kau i tana tirohanga atu: ko tona hiako, me ona kiko, me ona toto, me tahu tahi me tona paru:
One shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her meat, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn.
6 Na ka mau te tohunga ki te rakau hita, ki te hihopa, ki te mea ngangana, a ka maka e ia ki waenganui o te tahunga o te kau.
The priest shall take cedar wood, hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the middle of the burning of the heifer.
7 Katahi ka horoi te tohunga i ona kakahu, ka horoi ano hoki i tona kiri ki te wai, a muri iho ka haere ki te puni, ka poke hoki te tohunga a ahiahi noa.
Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean until the evening.
8 Me te kaitahu ano, me horoi ona kakahu ki te wai, me horoi ano tona kiri ki te wai, ka poke hoki ia a ahiahi noa.
He who burns her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the evening.
9 A me amene nga pungarehu o te kau e tetahi tangata pokekore, a ka waiho i waho o te puni, i te wahi pokekore, ka tiaki ai mo te whakaminenga o nga tama a Iharaira hei wai wehenga; hei horohoro tena mo te hara.
“A man who is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up outside of the camp in a clean place; and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for use in water for cleansing impurity. It is a sin offering.
10 Me horoi ano hoki ona kakahu e te kaiamene i nga pungarehu o te kau, ka poke hoki ia a ahiahi noa: me waiho ano tena hei tikanga tuturu ma nga tama a Iharaira, ma te manene hoki e noho manene ana i roto i a ratou.
He who gathers the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. It shall be to the children of Israel, and to the stranger who lives as a foreigner amongst them, for a statute forever.
11 Ki te pa tetahi ki te tinana mate o tetahi tangata, ka poke ia, e whitu nga ra.
“He who touches the dead body of any man shall be unclean seven days.
12 Me pure ia e ia ki taua wai i te toru o nga ra, a i te whitu o nga ra ka kore ona poke: otiia ki te kore ia e pure i a ia i te toru o nga ra, e kore ia e pokekore i te whitu o nga ra.
He shall purify himself with water on the third day, and on the seventh day he shall be clean; but if he doesn’t purify himself the third day, then the seventh day he shall not be clean.
13 Ki te pa tetahi ki te tinana mate o tetahi tangata kua mate, a kahore e pure i a ia, e whakapokea ana e ia te tapenakara o Ihowa; ka hatepea taua wairua i roto i a Iharaira; no te mea kihai i tauhiuhia ki a ia te wai wehenga, ka poke ano ia; e m au ana ano ki a ia tona poke.
Whoever touches a dead person, the body of a man who has died, and doesn’t purify himself, defiles the LORD’s tabernacle; and that soul shall be cut off from Israel; because the water for impurity was not sprinkled on him, he shall be unclean. His uncleanness is yet on him.
14 Ko te ture tenei ina mate te tangata i roto i te teneti: ko nga tangata katoa e tomo ana ki te teneti, me nga tangata katoa i roto i te teneti, ka poke kia whitu nga ra.
“This is the law when a man dies in a tent: everyone who comes into the tent, and everyone who is in the tent, shall be unclean seven days.
15 Ko nga oko katoa ano e puare kau ana, kahore nei i herea te taupoki, ka poke.
Every open vessel, which has no covering bound on it, is unclean.
16 Ki te pa hoki tetahi ki te tangata i patua ki te hoari ki waenga parae, ki te tupapaku ranei, ki te whenua tangata ranei, ki te urupa ranei, ka poke ia kia whitu nga ra.
“Whoever in the open field touches one who is slain with a sword, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days.
17 Na, mo te tangata poke, me tiki e ratou etahi o nga pungarehu o te kau i tahunga hei horohoronga mo nga hara, ka riringi ai ki te wai ora, ki roto ano ki te oko:
“For the unclean, they shall take of the ashes of the burning of the sin offering; and running water shall be poured on them in a vessel.
18 Na ka mau tetahi tangata pokekore ki te hihopa, ka tuku ki te wai, na ka tauhiuhi i te teneti me nga oko katoa, i nga tangata ano hoki o reira, me te tangata i pa atu nei ki te whenua, ki te tangata ranei i patua, ki te tupapaku ranei, ki te uru pa ranei:
A clean person shall take hyssop, dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent, on all the vessels, on the persons who were there, and on him who touched the bone, or the slain, or the dead, or the grave.
19 Me tauhuihui ano hoki e te tangata pokekore te tangata poke i te toru o nga ra, i te whitu hoki o nga ra; a me pure ia e ia ano i te whitu o nga ra, ka horoi ai i ona kakahu, ka horoi ano hoki i a ia ki te wai, a i te ahiahi ka kore te poke.
The clean person shall sprinkle on the unclean on the third day, and on the seventh day. On the seventh day, he shall purify him. He shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water, and shall be clean at evening.
20 A ki te poke tetahi tangata, a kahore e pure i a ia, ka hatepea atu taua wairua i roto i te huihui, mona i whakapoke i te wahi tapu o Ihowa: kihai te wai o te wehenga i tauhiuhia ki a ia; he poke.
But the man who shall be unclean, and shall not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from amongst the assembly, because he has defiled the sanctuary of the LORD. The water for impurity has not been sprinkled on him. He is unclean.
21 A hei tikanga tuturu tenei ma ratou, me horoi ona kakahu e te kaitauhiuhi o te wai wehenga; ka poke ano a ahiahi noa te tangata e pa ana ki te wai wehenga.
It shall be a perpetual statute to them. He who sprinkles the water for impurity shall wash his clothes, and he who touches the water for impurity shall be unclean until evening.
22 Ko poke ano nga mea katoa e pa ai te tangata poke; ka poke ano a ahiahi noa te wairua e pa ana.
“Whatever the unclean person touches shall be unclean; and the soul that touches it shall be unclean until evening.”
