1 ‘ Do not make gods for yourselves. Do not set up for yourselves something to look like a god or a holy object. Do not set up something cut from stone in your land to bow down to. For I am the Lord your God.

Kei hanga koutou he whakapakoko ma koutou, kei whakaara ranei he whakapakoko, he mea whaowhao, he pou ranei, kaua ano hoki he kohatu ahua ki to koutou whenua hei koropikotanga atu: ko Ihowa hoki ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

2 K eep My Days of Rest and honor My holy place. I am the Lord.

Kia mau ki aku hapati, kia hopohopo ano ki toku wahi tapu: ko Ihowa ahau.

3 I f you live by My Laws and do what I say,

Ki te haere koutou i runga i aku tikanga, a ka pupuri i aku whakahua, ka mahi hoki;

4 I will give you rain at the right time. So the land will give its food and the trees will give their fruit.

Na ka hoatu e ahau he ua ki a koutou i tona po ano, a ka tukua ona hua e te whenua, a ka hua nga hua o nga rakau o te parae:

5 T he crushing of your grain will last until the grapes are gathered. The grape gathering will last until the seeds are planted. You will eat your food until you are full, and be safe living in your land.

A ka tutuki atu ta koutou patunga witi ki te whakiinga waina, me te whakiinga waina ki te wa ruinga; a ka kai koutou i ta koutou taro, ka makona, ka u ano te noho ki to koutou whenua.

6 I will give peace in the land. You will lie down and no one will make you afraid. I will make the land free from the danger of wild animals. And no sword will move through your land.

A ka tukua iho e ahau te ata noho ki te whenua, a ka takoto iho koutou, kahore ano hoki he tangata hei mea i a koutou kia wehi: ka whakakahoretia atu ano hoki e ahau nga kirehe kino i te whenua, e kore ano hoki te hoari e tika na waenga o to kout ou whenua.

7 Y ou will go after those who hate you, and they will fall in front of you by the sword.

A ka whaia e koutou o koutou hoariri, a ka hinga ratou i te hoari ki to koutou aroaro.

8 F ive of you will go after a hundred. A hundred of you will go after ten thousand. And those who hate you will fall in front of you by the sword.

Ka whaia hoki te rau kotahi e te tokorima o koutou, a ka whati nga mano kotahi tekau i te rau kotahi o koutou: na ka hinga o koutou hoariri i te hoari ki to koutou aroaro.

9 I will care for you and give you many children. I will keep My agreement with you.

Ka whai whakaaro hoki ahau ki a koutou, a ka meinga koutou kia hua, kia tini; a ka pumau taku kawenata ki a koutou.

10 Y ou will eat last year’s food, and use it all because you will have new.

A ka kai koutou i te kai kua roa e pakoko ana, a ka whakaputa i te pakoko ki waho mo te hua hou.

11 I will make My home among you. My soul will not turn away from you.

A ka whakaturia e ahau taku tapenakara ki waenganui i a koutou, e kore ano toku wairua e whakarihariha ki a koutou.

12 I will walk among you and be your God. And you will be My people.

Ka haereere ano hoki ahau i roto i a koutou, a hei Atua ahau mo koutou, ko koutou hoki hei iwi maku.

13 I am the Lord your God Who brought you out of the land of Egypt so you would not be their servants. I have broken loose the heavy load from your back and made you walk straight. Punishment to Those Who Do Not Obey

Ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua i kawe mai nei i a koutou i te whenua o Ihipa, kei waiho hei pononga ma ratou; motu pu hoki ahau nga here o to koutou ioka, a meinga ana koutou kia haere tu.

14 ‘ But if you do not obey Me and do not do all I say,

Tena ko tenei, ka kore koutou e whakarongo ki ahau, ka kore e mahi i enei whakahau katoa;

15 i f you turn away from My Laws and do not want to do what I tell you to do, and do not do it, and so break My agreement,

A ka whakahawea ki aku tikanga, ka whakarihariha ranei o koutou wairua ki aku whakaritenga, a kahore e mahia aku whakahau katoa, engari ka whakataka taku kawenata:

16 I will do this to you: I will bring upon you much fear, disease that destroys, and sickness that will waste away the eyes and make the body weak. You will plant your seeds for nothing, for those who hate you will eat it.

Na ka meinga ano hoki tenei e ahau ki a koutou; ka meinga e ahau hei rangatira mo koutou te pawera, te kohi, me te kirika, hei ngau i nga kanohi, hei whakapouri i te ngakau: a ka maumau ta koutou rui i a koutou purapura; no te mea ka kainga e o koutou hoariri.

17 I will turn against you so you will fall in front of those who fight you. Those who hate you will rule over you. You will run away when no one is coming after you.

A ka u atu toku mata ki a koutou, a ka patua koutou i te aroaro o o koutou hoariri, ka meinga hei kingi mo koutou te hunga e kino ana ki a koutou; a ka rere koutou, ahakoa kahore he kaiwhai.

18 I f after all of these things you still do not obey Me, I will punish you seven times more for your sins.

A ki te kahore tonu koutou e rongo ki ahau i enei meatanga, na, e whitu atu aku pakinga i a koutou mo o koutou hara.

19 I will break the pride you have of your power. I will make your sky like iron and your earth like brass.

Ka whati ano i ahau te whakapehapeha o to koutou kaha; a ka meinga to koutou rangi kia whakarino, to koutou whenua hoki kia whakaparahi:

20 Y ou will use your strength for nothing. For your land will not give food, and the trees of the land will not give fruit.

A ka poto kau o koutou uaua: no te mea e kore to koutou whenua e tuku ake i ona hua, e kore ano hoki e hua nga hua o nga rakau o te whenua.

21 ‘ If you act against Me and will not obey Me, I will bring you seven times more trouble than your sins.

A, ki te anga ke atu ta koutou haere i ahau, ki te kore e rongo ki ahau; na ka hoatu e ahau kia whitu atu ano nga whiu ki a koutou, kia rite ki o koutou hara.

22 I will let the wild animals loose among you. They will rob you of your children and destroy your cattle. They will make you few in number, so that your roads will be empty.

Ka tukua ano e ahau te kirehe koraha ki a koutou, hei kawhaki i a koutou tama, hei whakamoti i a koutou kararehe, hei mea i a koutou kia torutoru; a ka ururuatia o koutou huanui.

23 ‘ If after these things you do not turn to Me, but still go against Me,

A ki te kahore koutou e hoki ake ki te pai i enei meatanga aku, a ka anga ke atu koutou i ahau;

24 t hen I will go against you. I Myself will punish you seven times for your sins.

Heoi ka anga ke atu hoki ahau i a koutou; a ka whiua koutou e ahau, e ahau ano nei, kia whitu atu ano, mo o koutou hara.

25 I will bring a sword upon you that will punish you for breaking the agreement. I will send disease among you when you gather together in your cities. So you will be given into the hands of those who hate you.

A ka kawea e ahau he hoari ki a koutou, hei tohe i te utu mo taku kawenata: a ka huihui koutou ki roto ki o koutou pa; a ka tukua e ahau te mate uruta ki a koutou; a ka hoatu koutou ki te ringa o te hoariri.

26 W hen I take away your bread of life, ten women will make your bread in one stove. They will give out your bread by weight. And you will eat it and not be filled.

Ki te whati i ahau ta koutou tokotoko, ara te taro, ka tunua ta koutou taro e nga wahine kotahi tekau ki te oumu kotahi, a ka whakahokia e ratou ta koutou taro, he mea pauna: a ka kai koutou a e kore e makona.

27 ‘ If you still do not obey Me after all this, but go against Me,

A ki te kahore koutou e rongo ki ahau i enei meatanga katoa, a ka anga ke atu ano koutou i ahau;

28 t hen I will go against you with anger. I Myself will punish you seven times for your sins.

Katahi ahau ka tahuri kino atu i a koutou; a maku nei ano koutou e papaki, e whitu atu pakinga, mo o koutou hara.

29 Y ou will eat the flesh of your sons and daughters.

A e kai koutou i te kikokiko o a koutou tama, ka kainga hoki e koutou te kikokiko o a koutou tamahine.

30 I will destroy your high places and cut down your altars of special perfume. I will throw your dead bodies on what is left of your gods. My soul will hate you.

A ka ngaro i ahau a koutou wahi teitei, ka tapahia ano hoki a koutou, whakapakoko, ka maka o koutou tinana ki runga ki nga tinana o a koutou whakapakoko; a ka whakarihariha ano hoki toku wairua ki a koutou.

31 I will destroy your cities also, and your holy places. I will not smell your pleasing smells.

Ka ururua ano i ahau o koutou pa, ka tuheatia hoki o koutou wahi tapu, e kore ano hoki ahau e hongi ki a koutou kakara reka.

32 I will destroy the land, so those living in it who hate you will be filled with fear because of it.

A ka tuhea i ahau te whenua; e miharotia ai e o koutou hoariri e noho ana i reira.

33 I will divide you among the nations and send the sword after you. Your land will be destroyed and your cities a waste.

A ka whakamararatia koutou ki roto ki nga tauiwi, ka maunu hoki i ahau te hoari hei whai i a koutou: a ka tuheatia to koutou whenua, ka ururuatia hoki o koutou pa.

34 ‘ Then the land will be like new because of its Days of Rest while it lies waste and you are in the land of those who hate you. Then the land will rest and have new life because of the Days of Rest.

Ko reira koa ai te whenua i ona hapati, i nga ra katoa ona e takoto tuhea ana, i a koutou hoki i te whenua o o koutou hoariri; ko reira hoki te whenua okioki ai, koa ai hoki i ona hapati.

35 A s long as it lies waste it will have the rest it did not have on your Days of Rest, while you were living in it.

Ka okioki i nga ra katoa o tona tuheatanga; ko te okioki kihai i a ia i o koutou hapati, i a koutou e noho ana i reira.

36 O f those of you who are left in the lands of those who hate you, I will make their hearts weak. The sound of a leaf blown by the wind will make them run away even when no one is going after them. They will run away as if it were a sword, and they will fall.

Tena ko nga morehu o koutou ka unga e ahau he whakangohe ki o ratou ngakau i nga whenua o o ratou hoariri; a ka whati ratou i te ngaehe rau rakau e aia ana; a ka rere ratou, ano e rere ana i te hoari; a ka hinga ahakoa kahore he kaiwhai.

37 T hey will fall over each other as if running from the sword, when no one is going after them. You will have no strength to stand up in front of those who hate you.

A ka tutetute ratou tetahi ki tetahi, ano e whaia ana e te hoari, i te mea kahore he kaiwhai: a ka kore he turanga ake mo koutou ki te aroaro o o koutou hoariri.

38 Y ou will die among the nations. The land of those who hate you will eat you up.

A ka ngaro koutou i nga tauiwi, ka pau ano i te whenua o o koutou hoariri.

39 S o those of you who are left will waste away in the lands of those who hate you, because of their sins. Also because of the sins of their fathers, they will waste away with them.

A, ko nga toenga o koutou, ka memeha haere i roto i to ratou kino i nga whenua o o koutou hoariri; ka memeha haere ratou i roto i nga kino o ratou ko o ratou matua.

40 ‘ If they tell their sins and the sins of their fathers which they did when they were not faithful to Me and were against Me with anger,

A ka whakina e ratou to ratou kino, me te kino o o ratou matua, i to ratou haranga i hara ai ki ahau, me to ratou haerenga ketanga atu i taku,

41 ( I also was angry with them and brought them into the land of those who hate them) if their sinful heart loses its pride and they are willing to turn away from their sin,

I anga ke atu ai ahau i a ratou, i kawea ai ratou ki te whenua o o ratou hoariri; ki te iro i reira o ratou ngakau kokotikore, a ka whakaae ki te pakinga mo to ratou kino:

42 I will remember My agreement with Jacob, My agreement with Isaac, and My agreement with Abraham. And I will remember the land.

Katahi ahau ka mahara ki taku kawenata ki a Hakopa; ki taku kawenata hoki ki a Ihaka; ka mahara tonu ki taku kawenata ki a Aperahama; ka mahara ki te whenua.

43 B ut the land will be left behind them and become better with its Days of Rest while it lies empty without them. During this time they will turn away from their sin because they had not done what I told them to do and their soul hated My Laws.

Ka mahue ano te whenua i a ratou, a ka koa ki ona hapati, i a ia e takoto tuhea ana, i te mea kahore nei ratou: me ratou hoki, ka whakaae ki te whiu mo to ratou kino: mo tenei hoki, ae ra mo tenei, i whakahawea ratou ki aku whakaritenga, a i wha karihariha to ratou wairua ki aku tikanga.

44 Y et even when they are in the land of those who hate them, I will not turn away from them. I will not hate them enough to destroy them and break My agreement with them. For I am the Lord their God.

Na ahakoa he pena, e kore ahau e whakakahore ki a ratou, i a ratou i te whenua o o ratou hoariri, e kore ano e whakarihariha ki a ratou, e huna rawa i a ratou, e whakataka ranei i taku kawenata ki a ratou: ko Ihowa hoki ahau, ko to ratou Atua:

45 B ut because of them I will remember the agreement with their fathers, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the eyes of the nations, to be their God. I am the Lord.’”

Engari, he mea mo ratou, ka mahara ahau ki te kawenata o o ratou tupuna, i kawea mai nei e ahau i te whenua o Ihipa i te tirohanga a nga tauiwi, ki ahau hei Atua mo ratou: ko ahau a Ihowa.

46 T hese are the Laws which the Lord made between Himself and the people of Israel through Moses at Mount Sinai.

Ko nga tikanga enei, me nga whakaritenga, me nga ture i whakatakotoria e Ihowa ki waenganui ona, o nga tama a Iharaira, ki Maunga Hinai, he mea na te ringa o Mohi.
