Kei kainga te mea i mate maori noa: me hoatu ki te manene i roto i ou tatau, a mana e kai; me hoki atu ranei ki te tangata iwi ke: he iwi tapu hoki koe ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua. Kaua e kohuatia he kuao koati ki te waiu o tona whaea.

22 “ Be sure to give a tenth part to the Lord of all you plant that comes from your field every year.

Whakatekautia nga hua katoa o au purapura, e tupu ake ana i te mara i tenei tau, i tenei tau.

23 B efore the Lord your God, at the place He chooses to put His name, you may eat the tenth part of your grain, your new wine, your oil, and the first-born of your cattle and your flock. Then you may learn to fear the Lord your God always.

Me kai hoki ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua, ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai ia kia waiho tona ingoa ki reira, nga whakatekau o tau witi, o tau waina, o tau hinu hoki, me nga matamua ano o au kau, o au hipi hoki; kia ako ai koe ki te wehi i a Ihowa, i tou Atua, i nga ra katoa.

24 I f the place where the Lord your God chooses to put His name is too far away for you to bring the tenth part of all the good things you have received,

A ki te roa rawa tou huarahi, e kore ai e taea e koe tena mea te kawe, no te mea he mamao atu i a koe te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa, tou Atua, kia waiho tona ingoa ki reira, ina manaakitia koe e Ihowa, e tou Atua:

25 y ou should trade it for money. Then tie the money in your hand and go to the place which the Lord your God chooses.

Na me hoko e koe ki te moni, me takai hoki te moni ki roto ki tou ringa, ka haere ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa, tou Atua:

26 Y ou may spend the money for whatever your heart may desire, for bulls, sheep, wine, strong drink, or whatever you desire. And there you and those of your house may eat before the Lord and be full of joy.

Na ka hoko atu koe i te moni ki nga mea katoa e hiahia ai tou ngakau, ki te kau, ki te hipi ranei, ki te waina ranei, ki te wai kaha ranei, ki nga mea katoa ranei e matea nuitia ana e tou ngakau: ka kai ai ki reira ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou At ua, ka hari hoki koe, koutou ko tou whare:

27 D o not stop caring for the Levite who is in your town for he has no share of what is given to you.

A ko te Riwaiti i roto i ou tatau, kaua ia e whakarerea e koe: he mea hoki kahore ona wahi, kainga tupu ranei i roto i a koe.

28 “ At the end of every third year you should bring the tenth part of that year’s grain into your towns.

Hei te mutunga o nga tau e toru ka mau koe ki waho i nga whakatekau katoa o au hua o tena tau, ka whakatakoto ai ki ou kuwaha:

29 A nd the Levite who has no share of what is given to you, and the stranger, and the child without parents, and the woman whose husband has died, who are in your towns, may come and eat and be filled. Then the Lord your God will bring good to you in all the work done by your hands.

Na ka haere te Riwaiti, no te mea kahore ona wahi, kainga tupu ranei i roto i a koe, me te manene, me te pani, me te pouaru, kei roto nei i ou tatau, a ka kai ratou, ka makona: kia manaaki ai a Ihowa, tou Atua, i a koe i nga mahi katoa a tou rin ga e mahi ai koe.
