1 A nd Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer and put fire in it, and put incense on it, and offered strange and unholy fire before the Lord, as He had not commanded them.

Na ka mau a Natapa raua ko Apihu, nga tama a Arona, ki a raua tahu kakara, a maka ana he ahi ki roto, a whakatakotoria iho e raua he whakakakara ki runga, na whakaherea ana e raua he ahi ke ki te aroaro o Ihowa, he mea kihai i whakahaua e ia ki a raua.

2 A nd there came forth fire from before the Lord and killed them, and they died before the Lord.

Na ko te putanga mai o te ahi i te aroaro o Ihowa, a pau ake raua, a mate iho raua i te aroaro o Ihowa.

3 T hen Moses said to Aaron, This is what the Lord meant when He said, I will be acknowledged as hallowed by those who come near Me, and before all the people I will be honored. And Aaron said nothing.

Na ka mea a Mohi ki a Arona, Ko te mea tenei i korero ra a Ihowa, i mea ra, Me whakatapu ahau e te hunga katoa e whakatata mai ana ki ahau, me whakakororia ano hoki ahau ki te aroaro o te iwi katoa. A whakarongo puku ana a Arona.

4 M oses called Mishael and Elzaphan, sons of Uzziel uncle of Aaron, and said to them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp.

Na ka karanga a Mohi ki a Mihaera raua ko Eritapana, nga tama a Utiere matua keke o Arona, ka mea ki a raua, Haere mai, maua atu o korua tuakana i mua i te wahi tapu, ki waho o te puni.

5 S o they drew near and carried them in their undertunics out of the camp, as Moses had said.

Na ka haere raua, ka mau i a raua i roto i o raua koti ki waho o te puni; i pera ano raua me ta Mohi i ki ai.

6 A nd Moses said to Aaron and Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons, Do not uncover your heads or let your hair go loose or tear your clothes, lest you die and lest God’s wrath should come upon all the congregation; but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the Lord has kindled.

Na ka mea a Mohi ki a Arona, ratou ko ana tama ko Ereatara, ko Itamara, Kaua nga makawe o o koutou matenga e waiho kia mahora noa, kaua ano hoki e haea o koutou kakahu; kei mate koutou, kei riria hoki te iwi katoa: engari kia tangihia e o koutou teina, e te whare katoa o Iharaira, te tahunga i tahuna nei e Ihowa.

7 A nd you shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, lest you die, for the Lord’s anointing oil is upon you. And they did according to Moses’ word.

Kaua hoki koutou e puta i te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, kei mate koutou: kei runga hoki i a koutou te hinu whakawahi a Ihowa. Na ka meatia e ratou ta Mohi i korero ai.

8 A nd the Lord said to Aaron,

Na ka korero a Ihowa ki a Arona, ka mea,

9 D o not drink wine or strong drink, you or your sons, when you go into the Tent of Meeting, lest you die; it shall be a statute forever in all your generations.

Kaua e inumia he waina, tetahi wai whakahaurangi ranei, e koutou tahi ko au tama, ina haere ki te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, kei mate koutou: hei tikanga pumau tenei ki o koutou whakatupuranga:

10 Y ou shall make a distinction and recognize a difference between the holy and the common or unholy, and between the unclean and the clean;

Kia taea ai hoki te wehe, te tapu me te noa, te poke me to pokekore;

11 A nd you are to teach the Israelites all the statutes which the Lord has spoken to them by Moses.

Kia taea ai hoki te whakaako i nga tama a Iharaira ki nga tikanga katoa i korerotia e Ihowa ki a ratou, ara e Mohi.

12 A nd Moses said to Aaron and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons who were left, Take the cereal offering that remains of the offerings of the Lord made by fire and eat it without leaven beside the altar, for it is most holy.

I korero ano a Mohi ki a Arona, ki ana tama ano i ora, ki a Ereatara, ki a Itamara, Tikina te whakahere totokore e toe ana o nga whakahere ahi a Ihowa, ka kai rewenakore ai ki te taha o te aata: he tino tapu hoki:

13 Y ou shall eat it in a sacred place, because it is your due and your sons’ due, from the offerings made by fire to the Lord; for so I am commanded.

A me kai ki te wahi tapu, ko taua wahi hoki o nga whakahere ahi a Ihowa mau, ma au tama hoki: ko te mea tena i whakahaua ki ahau.

14 B ut the breast that is waved and the thigh that is offered you shall eat in a clean place, you and your sons and daughters with you; for they are your due and your sons’ due, given out of the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the Israelites.

Ko te uma poipoi me te huha hapahapai me kai ki te wahi pokekore, e koe, e koutou tahi ko au tama, ko au tamahine: i whakaritea hoki ena hei wahi mau, hei wahi hoki ma au tama, he mea homai no roto i nga patunga mo te pai a nga tama a Iharaira.

15 T he thigh that is offered and the breast that is waved they shall bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave for a wave offering before the Lord; and it shall be yours and your sons’ with you as a portion or due perpetually, as the Lord has commanded.

Me kawe tahi mai e ratou te huha hapahapai, te uma poipoi, me te ngako mo nga whakahere ahi, a ka poipoia hei whakahere poipoi ki te aroaro o Ihowa; a ka waiho ma koutou tahi ko au tama; hei tikanga pumau tenei; ko ta Ihowa hoki i whakahau ai.

16 A nd Moses diligently tried to find the goat for the sin offering, and behold, it was burned up! And he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left alive, and said,

Na ka ata rapu a Mohi i te koati o te whakahere hara, na kua tahuna: na ka riri ia ki a Ereatara raua ko Itamara, ki nga tama a Arona i ora, ka mea,

17 W hy have you not eaten the sin offering in the Holy Place? It is most holy; and God has given it to you to bear and take away the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the Lord.

He aha te kainga ai e koutou te whakahere hara ki te wahi tapu, he tino tapu nei hoki, a kua homai ano ma koutou, ma koutou hoki e waha te kino o te whakaminenga, e whakamarie hoki mo ratou ki te aroaro o Ihowa?

18 B ehold, the blood of it was not brought within the Holy Place; you should indeed have eaten in the Holy Place, as I commanded.

Titiro hoki, kahore ano ona toto i kawea ki roto ki te wahi tapu: ko te tikanga kia kainga tena e koutou ki te wahi tapu, ko taku hoki i whakahau ai.

19 B ut Aaron said to Moses, Behold, this very day in which they have offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before the Lord, such have befallen me! If I had eaten the most holy sin offering today, would it have been acceptable in the sight of the Lord?

Na ka mea atu a Arona ki a Mohi, Nana, nonaianei i whakaherea ai e ratou ta ratou whakahere hara, me ta ratou tahunga tinana, ki te aroaro o Ihowa; a kua pa mai enei mea ki ahau: a me i kainga te whakahere hara e ahau inaianei, tera ranei e mana kohia mai e Ihowa?

20 A nd when Moses heard that, he was pacified.

A ka rongo a Mohi, na ka whakaae.
