1 “ Do not tell a lie about someone else. Do not join with the sinful to say something that will hurt someone.

Kei puaki i a koe te korero tito noa: kei totoro tahi tou ringa me te tangata kino, kei meinga hei kaiwhakaatu teka.

2 D o not follow many people in doing wrong. When telling what you know in a trial, do not agree with many people by saying what is not true.

Kei whai tahi me te tokomaha ki te kino; kaua ano hoki e hamumu i te totohenga, hei mea kia riro ai i ta te tokomaha, hei whakapeau ke i te tika:

3 A nd do not show favor to a poor man when he has a problem.

Kaua ano e whakanuia te rawakore, ina tohe ia.

4 “ If you meet a bull or donkey that belongs to a man who hates you, be sure to return the animal to him.

Ki te tutaki koe ki te kau a tou hoariri, ki tana kaihe ranei, e atiti noa ana, me ata whakahoki e koe ki a ia.

5 I f you see the donkey of one who hates you falling under its load, do not leave the problem to him. Help him to free the animal.

Ki te kite koe i te kaihe a tou hoariri e takoto ana i raro i tana pikaunga, a ka ngakaukore koe ki te whakaara, me ata whakaara tahi e korua.

6 D o not keep from doing what is right and fair in trying to help a poor brother when he has a problem.

Kei whakapeaua ketia e koe te whakawa mo tou tangata rawakore, ina tohe ia.

7 D o not lie against someone. And do not kill those who are right and good or those who are not guilty. For I will not free the guilty.

Kia matara koe i te teka; kaua ano e whakamatea te tangata harakore raua ko te tangata tika: e kore hoki ahau e whakatika i ta te tangata hara.

8 D o not take pay in secret for wrong-doing. For such pay blinds the one who sees well and destroys the words of a good man.

Kaua ano e tango i te utu whakapati: he mea whakamatapo hoki te utu whakapati i te kanohi kite, he mea whakaparori ke hoki i nga kupu a te hunga tika.

9 D o not make it hard for a stranger because you know how a stranger feels. You were strangers in the land of Egypt. Seventh Year and Seventh Day

Kaua ano e tukinotia te manene; e mohio ana hoki koutou ki te ngakau o te manene; he manene hoki koutou i mua, i te whenua o Ihipa.

10 “ You will plant seeds in your land for six years, and gather the grain.

Kia ono hoki nga tau e rui ai koe i tou oneone, e kohikohi ai hoki i ona hua:

11 B ut in the seventh year you will let the land rest without planting. So your people who are in need may eat. Whatever they leave, the animals may eat. You are to do the same with your grape-fields and olive trees.

I te whitu ia me waiho kia takoto kau ana, kia pariri, a ka kai nga tangata rawakore o tou iwi; a ma nga kirehe o te parae a ratou toenga e kai. Kia pena ano koe ki tau mara waina, ki tau mara oriwa.

12 Y ou will work six days and rest on the seventh day. So your bull and your donkey may rest. And the son of your female servant, and the stranger, may get their strength again.

E ono nga ra e mahi ai koe i au mahi, a i te whitu ka okioki: kia okioki ai tau kau, me tau kaihe, kia whai taanga manawa ai hoki te tama a tau pononga wahine me te manene.

13 B e careful to do all I have said to you. Never speak the name of other gods. Do not let them be heard from your mouth. Three Great Suppers

Kia tupato ano ki nga mea katoa kua korerotia nei e ahau ki a koutou: kaua hoki e whakahuatia te ingoa o nga atua ke, kei rangona hoki ki tou mangai.

14 “ Three times a year you will have a special supper to honor Me.

E toru nga wa o te tau e tuku hakari ai koe ki ahau.

15 Y ou will have the special supper of bread without yeast. For seven days you are to eat bread without yeast at the time I tell you in the month of Abib. For you came out of Egypt during this month. And no one will come before Me with nothing in his hands.

Kia mau ki te hakari o te taro rewenakore: e whitu nga ra e kai ai koe i te taro rewenakore, e pera ai me taku i whakahau ai ki a koe, i te wa ano i whakaritea o te marama, o Apipi; no reira hoki koe i haere mai ai i Ihipa: kaua ano hoki tetahi e puta kau mai ki toku aroaro;

16 Y ou will have the special supper of the gathering time of the first-fruits of your work, of all you plant in the field. And you will have the special supper of gathering at the end of the year when you gather in the fruit of your work from the field.

Ki te hakari o te kotinga, o te matamua o au mahi, i ruia e koe ki te mara: ki te hakari o te kohikohinga i te mutunga o te tau, ina oti te kohikohi mai e koe au mahi i te mara.

17 T hree times a year all your males will come before the Lord God.

E toru nga wa o te tau e kitea ai ou tane katoa ki te aroaro o te Ariki, o Ihowa.

18 “ Do not give the blood of My gift of worship with bread made with yeast. And the fat of My special supper is not to be kept all night until morning.

Kaua e whakaherea tahitia me te taro rewena te toto o taku patunga tapu; kei toe ano hoki ki te ata te ngako o taku hakari.

19 B ring the best first-fruits of your land to the house of the Lord your God. Do not boil the meat of a young goat in its mother’s milk. The Angel and the Promises

Me kawe e koe ki te whare o Ihowa, o tou Atua nga mea mataati o nga matamua o tou oneone. Kaua e kohuatia te kuao koati ki te waiu o tona whaea.

20 “ See, I am sending an angel before you to keep you safe on the way. He will bring you to the place I have made ready.

Nana, ka tonoa nei e ahau he anahera ki mua i a koe, hei tiaki i a koe i te ara, hei kawe hoki i a koe ki te wahi i whakaritea e ahau.

21 L isten to him and obey his voice. Do not turn against him, for he will not forgive your sins, because My name is in him.

Kia tupato ki a ia, whakarongo hoki ki tona reo, kaua e whakapataritari ki a ia; no te mea e kore ia e whakarere noa iho i to koutou hara: kei a ia nei hoki toku ingoa.

22 B ut if you obey his voice and do all that I say, then I will hate those who hate you and fight against those who fight against you.

Ki te ata whakarongo i a koe ki tona reo, ki te mea hoki i nga mea katoa e korero ai ahau; na, ko ahau hei hoariri mo ou hoariri, hei hoa whawhai hoki ki ou hoa whawhai.

23 F or My angel will go before you and bring you into the land of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Canaanites, the Hivites and the Jebusites. And I will destroy them.

Ka haere hoki taku anahera ki mua i a koe, hei kawe i a koe ki nga Amori, ki nga Hiti, ki nga Perihi, ki nga Kanaani, ki nga Hiwi, ki nga Iepuhi: a ka huna ratou e ahau.

24 D o not worship their gods, or serve them, or act like them. But you are to destroy them and break their pillars of worship to pieces.

Kei koropiko koe ki o ratou atua, kei mahi hoki ki a ratou, kei rite hoki au mahi ki a ratou mahi: engari me turaki rawa e koe, me wawahi rawa ano hoki a ratou whakapakoko.

25 S erve the Lord your God and He will give you bread and water. And I will take sickness from among you.

A me mahi koutou ki a Ihowa, ki to koutou Atua, a ka manaakitia e ia tau taro, me tou wai; ka whakakorea atu ano hoki e ahau te mate i roto i a koe.

26 W omen in your land will not lose their babies before they are born, and will be able to give birth. I will give you a full life.

E kore tetahi mea e whanau whakatahe, e pakoko ranei, i tou whenua: ka ata tutuki ano i ahau te maha o ou ra.

27 I will send My fear before you. The people you meet will be afraid. And I will make all those who hate you run away from you.

Ka tukua atu e ahau taku wehi ki mua i a koe, a ka whakamatea nga iwi katoa e haere atu nei koe ki a ratou, ka meinga ano hoki e ahau kia tahuri nga tuara o ou hoariri katoa ki a koe.

28 I will send hornets before you. They will drive out the Hivites, the Canaanites and the Hittites before you come.

Ka unga ano e ahau te horonete ki mua i a koe, mana e pei nga Hiwi, nga Kanaani, me nga Hiti i tou aroaro.

29 I will not move them out of your way in one year. So the land will not become a waste, and the animals of the field become too many for you.

E kore ratou e peia e ahau i tou aroaro i te tau kotahi; kei ururuatia te whenua, a ka nui rawa i a koe te kirehe o te parae.

30 I will drive them out a few at a time, until you become many and take the land for your own.

Ka peia rikirikitia atu ratou e ahau i tou aroaro, kia hua ra ano koe, kia riro ra ano hoki te whenua i a koe.

31 I will give you the land from the Red Sea to the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the Euphrates River. For I will give you power over the people of the land. And you will drive them away from you.

A ka whakatakotoria e ahau tou rohe ki te Moana Whero a tae noa ki te Moana o nga Pirihitini, ki te koraha hoki a tae noa ki te awa: ka tukua atu nei hoki e ahau ki o koutou ringa nga tangata o te whenua, a ka peia ratou e koe i tou aroaro.

32 M ake no agreement with them or their gods.

Kaua e whakarite kawenata ki a ratou, ki o ratou atua ranei.

33 T hey are not to live in your land, or they will make you sin against Me. If you worship their gods, for sure it will be a trap to you.”

Kaua ratou e noho ki tou whenua, kei mea ratou i a koe kia hara ki ahau: ta te mea, ki te mahi koe ki o ratou atua, ka ai tena hei rore mou.
