< Deuteronomy 21 >

1 If one be found slain in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee to possess it, lying in the field, and it be not known who hath smitten him;
I NA ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua i haawi mai ai ia oe, a lilo ia nou, i loaa ka mea i pepehiia e waiho ana ma ke kula, aole i ikeia ka mea nana i pepehi:
2 then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth, and they shall measure unto the cities which are round about him that is slain:
Alaila e hele mai kou poe lunakahiko a me kou poe lunakanawai, a e ana aku lakou a hiki i na kulanakauhale e puni ana i ka mea i pepehiia.
3 and it shall be, that the city which is nearest unto the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take a heifer of the herd, which hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the yoke;
A o ke kulanakauhale kokoke i ka mea i pepehiia, o na lunakahiko o ia kulanakauhale e lawe lakou i ka bipiwahine hou i hoohana ole ia, aole hoi i kauo iloko o ka auamo;
4 and the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer unto a valley with running water, which is neither plowed nor sown, and shall break the heifer’s neck there in the valley.
A o na lunakahiko o ia kulanakauhale e alakai aku i ka bipiwahine hou ma ke kahawai e kahe mau ana, ma kahi mahi ole ia, aole hoi i luluia, a malaila lakou e oki ai i ke poo o ua bipiwahine la ma ke kahawai:
5 And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near; for them Jehovah thy God hath chosen to minister unto him, and to bless in the name of Jehovah; and according to their word shall every controversy and every stroke be.
A o na kahuna, na mamo a Levi e hookokoke mai; no ka mea, ua wae mai o Iehova kou Akua ia lakou e lawelawe nana, a e hoomaikai aku ma ka inoa o Iehova, aia no ia lakou ka olelo no na hakaka a me na hahau ana a pau.
6 And all the elders of that city, who are nearest unto the slain man, shall wash their hands over the heifer whose neck was broken in the valley;
A o na lunakahiko a pau o ke kulanakauhale e kokoke ana i ka mea i pepehiia, e holoi i ko lakou lima maluna o ka bipiwahine i okiia o kona poo ma ke kahawai:
7 and they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it.
A e olelo mai lakou, e i mai, Aole ko makou lima i hookahe i keia koko, aole hoi i ike ko makou maka.
8 Forgive, O Jehovah, thy people Israel, whom thou hast redeemed, and suffer not innocent blood [to remain] in the midst of thy people Israel. And the blood shall be forgiven them.
E Iehova, e kala mai i kou poe kanaka, i ka Iseraela au i hoola ai, a mai hoopai i ke koko hala ole maluna o kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela: a e kalaia ke koko no lakou.
9 So shalt thou put away the innocent blood from the midst of thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah.
A pela e huikala aku ai oe i ke koko hala ole mai ou aku la, no ka mea, ua hana oe i ka pono imua o Iehova.
10 When thou goest forth to battle against thine enemies, and Jehovah thy God delivereth them into thy hands, and thou carriest them away captive,
Aia hele aku oe e kaua aku i kou poe enemi, a e hoolilo mai o Iehova kou Akua ia lakou iloko o kou lima, a e lawe pio aku oe ia lakou,
11 and seest among the captives a beautiful woman, and thou hast a desire unto her, and wouldest take her to thee to wife;
A ike aku oe i wahine maikai iwaena o ka poe pio, a makemake oe e lawe ia ia i wahine nau;
12 then thou shalt bring her home to thy house; and she shall shave her head, and pare her nails;
Alaila e lawe oe ia ia ma kou hale; a e ako iho oia i kona poo, a e oki hoi i kona maiuu;
13 and she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, and shall remain in thy house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month: and after that thou shalt go in unto her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife.
A e waiho aku ia i ka aahu pio mai ona aku la, a e noho ia ma kou hale, a e uwe iho ia i kona makuakane, a me kona makuwahine i hookahi malama; a mahope aku e komo aku oe iloko io na la e lilo i kane nana, a e lilo ia i wahine nau.
14 And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then thou shalt let her go whither she will; but thou shalt not sell her at all for money, thou shalt not deal with her as a slave, because thou hast humbled her.
A ina aole oe e makemake ia ia, e kuu aku oe ia ia e hele i kona wahi e makemake ai; mai kuai aku oe ia ia no ke kala, aole hoi oe e hoolilo ia ia i waiwai nau, no ka mea, ua hoohaahaa oe ia ia.
15 If a man have two wives, the one beloved, and the other hated, and they have borne him children, both the beloved and the hated; and if the first-born son be hers that was hated;
Ina elua wahine a kekahi kanaka, ua alohaia kekahi, na aloha ole ia kekahi, a o ka mea alohaia, a me ka mea aloha ole ia i hanau keiki nana: a ina na ka wahine aloha ole ia ka makahiapo;
16 then it shall be, in the day that he causeth his sons to inherit that which he hath, that he may not make the son of the beloved the first-born before the son of the hated, who is the first-born:
Alaila, i ka manawa e hooili ai oia i kona waiwai i kana mau keikikane, aole ia e haawi i ka ka hanau mua na ke keiki a ka mea alohaia mamua o ke keiki a ka mea aloha ole ia, oia ka hiapo maoli:
17 but he shall acknowledge the first-born, the son of the hated, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath; for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the first-born is his.
Aka, e hoolilo ia i ke keikikane a ka mea aloha ole ia i hiapo, a e haawi papalua ia ia o kona loaa a pau; no ka mea, oia ka mua o kona ikaika, a nona ka pono o ka hanau mua.
18 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, that will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and, though they chasten him, will not hearken unto them;
A o ke kanaka ia ia ke keiki hewa, paakiki, aole e hoolohe i ka leo o kona makuakane, a me ka leo o kona makuwahine, a ia laua i ao aku ai ia ia, aole ia i maliu mai ia laua;
19 then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;
Alaila e lalau aku kona makuakane a me kona makuwahine ia ia, a e lawe aku ia ia i na lunakahiko o kona kulanakauhale, a i ka ipuka o kona wahi:
20 and they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.
A e olelo aku i na lunakahiko o kona kulanakauhale, Ua hewa, a ua paakiki keia keiki a maua, aole ia i hoolohe i ko maua leo, ua pakela ai, a ua ona.
21 And all the men of his city shall stone him to death with stones: so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
A o na kanaka a pau o kona kulanakauhale e hailuku ia ia i ka pohaku e make ia; a e lawe aku oe i ka hewa mai ou aku la; a e hoolohe ka Iseraela a pau a e makau hoi.
22 And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree;
Ina e hana hewa kekahi kanaka e pono ai ke make, a e pepehiia oia, a e kau aku oe ia ia maluna o ka laau;
23 his body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt surely bury him the same day; for he that is hanged is accursed of God; that thou defile not thy land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
Aole e waiho i kona kino a ao ka po maluna o ka laau, aka, e kanu no ia ia ia la, (no ka mea, ua hoinoia e ke Akua ka mea i kaulia, ) i haumia ole ai kou aina a Iehova kou Akua i haawi lilo mai ai i wahi e noho ai nou.
