< Deuteronomy 18 >

1 The priests the Levites, and all the tribe of Levi, shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel: they shall eat the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and his inheritance.
O NA kahuna, na Levi, o na ohana a pau a Levi, aohe o lakou kuleana, aohe aina hooili me ka Iseraela: e ai no lakou i na mohai no Iehova i puhi i ke ahi, a me ka mea e ili mai ana nona.
2 Therefore shall they have no inheritance among their brethren: the LORD is their inheritance, as he has said unto them.
No ia mea, aole o lakou aina hooili iwaena o ko lakou poe hoahanau; o Iehova oia ko lakou hooilina e like me kana i olelo mai ai ia lakou.
3 And this shall be the priest's due from the people, from them that offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep; and they shall give unto the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the maw.
Eia ka ke kahuna wahi na na kanaka mai, na ka poe e kaumaha aku i ka mohai, i ka bipikane paha, i ka hipa paha: a e haawi aku lakou i ka uha mua a me na papalina elua, a me ka opu na ke kahuna.
4 The first-fruit also of your corn, of your wine, and of your oil, and the first of the fleece of your sheep, shall you give him.
O ka hua mua o kau palaoa, o kou waina, a me kou aila, a o ka hulu ako mua o kau poe hipa, o kau ia e haawi aku ai nana.
5 For the LORD your God has chosen him out of all your tribes, to stand to minister in the name of the LORD, him and his sons for ever.
No ka mea, ua wae mai o Iehova ia ia mailoko mai o kou mau ohana a pau, e ku e lawelawe ma ka inoa o Iehova, oia a me kana mau keiki i na la a pau loa.
6 And if a Levite come from any of your gates out of all Israel, where he sojourned, and come with all the desire of his mind unto the place which the LORD shall choose;
Ina paha e hele mai kekahi o ka Levi mailoko mai o kekahi o kou mau ipuka o ka Iseraela a pau ana i noho malihini ai; a e hele mai ia me ka makemake a pau o kona naau ma kahi a Iehova e wae ai;
7 Then he shall minister in the name of the LORD his God, as all his brethren the Levites do, which stand there before the LORD.
Alaila e lawelawe no ia ma ka inoa o Iehova kona Akua, e like me kona poe hoahanau a pau, o ka Levi e ku ana malaila imua o Iehova.
8 They shall have like portions to eat, beside that which comes of the sale of his patrimony.
E hoohalikeia ka lakou mea e ai ai, a o kona waiwai hoi i kuaiia na na makua mai.
9 When you are come into the land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.
A hiki aku oe ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi mai ai ia oe, mai ao iho oe e hana e like me na mea haumia o ua mau lahuikanaka la.
10 There shall not be found among you any one that makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that uses divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.
Aole e ikeia iwaena o oukou ka mea nana e kuu aku i kana keikikane a i kana kaikamahine paha e hele mawaena o ke ahi; aole hoi he kahuna anaana, aole he mea nana i ke ao, aole hoi he mea nana moo, aole ka mea kilo;
11 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
Aole hoi he mea hoowalewale i na nahesa, aole hoi he mea ninau i na uhane ino, aole hoi he kupua, aole he mea ninau i ka poe make.
12 For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD your God does drive them out from before you.
No ka mea, o ka poe a pau e hana ana ia mea, ua haumia lakou imua o Iehova: no keia mau mea hoohaumia, na Iehova kou Akua e kipaku aku ana ia lakou mai kou alo aku.
13 You shall be perfect with the LORD your God.
E hemolele oe imua o Iehova kou Akua.
14 For these nations, which you shall possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for you, the LORD your God has not suffered you so to do.
No ka mea, o keia mau lahuikanaka e lilo ana nou, ua hoolohe lakou i na mea nana i ke ao, a me na kahuna anaana: aka o oe, aole o Iehova kou Akua i ae mai ia oe e hana pela.
15 The LORD your God will raise up unto you a Prophet from the midst of you, of your brethren, like unto me; unto him all of you shall hearken;
E hooku mai auanei o Iehova kou Akua mai waena mai ou i Kaula nou, i kekahi hoahanau on e like me au, e hoolohe oukou ia ia;
16 According to all that you desired of the LORD your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not.
E like me ka mea a pau na i noi aku ai ia Iehova kou Akua ma Horeba, i ka la i houluulu ai, i ka i ana'ku, Aole au e lohe hou i ka leo o Iehova ko'u Akua, aole hoi au e ike hou i keia ahi nui, o make au.
17 And the LORD said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken.
I mai la o Iehova ia'u, He pono ka lakou i olelo mai ai.
18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto you, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
E hooku auanei au i Kaula no lakou no waena mai o ko lakou poe hoahanau, e like me oe, a e waiho ana au i ka'u mau olelo maloko o kona waha; a nana e olelo aku ia lakou ka mea a pau a'u e kauoha aku ai ia ia.
19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.
A o ke kanaka hoolohe ole i ka'u mau olelo, ana e olelo aku ai ma ko'u inoa, na'u no ia e hoopai aku.
20 But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
A o ke kaula e aa ana e olelo aku i kekahi olelo ma ko'u inoa i ka mea a'u i kauoha ole aku ai ia ia e olelo, a e olelo aku paha ia ma ka inoa o na akua e, e make ua kaula la.
21 And if you say in your heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?
Ina e i iho oe iloko o kou naau, Pehea la makou e ike ai i ka olelo a Iehova i olelo ole mai ai?
22 When a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken, but the prophet has spoken it presumptuously: you shall not be afraid of him.
A i olelo aku kekahi kaula ma ka inoa o Iehova, a hiki ole mai ia mea, aole hoi ia e ko, oia ka mea a Iehova i olelo ole mai ai; ua olelo aku ua kaula la me ka hookiekie; mai makau aku oe ia ia.
