Kanawailua 25
1 I NA he mea e hakaka ai iwaena o na kanaka, a hele mai lakou ma kahi hookolokolo, i hooponopono ai na lunakanawai ia lakou; alaila e hoapono aku lakou i ka mea i pono, a e hoahewa aku i ka mea i hewa.
If there shall be a controversy between men, and they come to judgment, that [the judges] may judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.
2 Ina he pono e lilo ka mea i hewa i ka hahauia, e hoomoe ka lunakanawai ia ia malalo, a e hahauia oia imua o kona maka, e like me ke ano o kona hewa, ma ka helu ana.
And it shall be, if the wicked man [be] worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his fault, by a certain number.
3 Hookahi kanaha ia e hahau ai ia ia, aole keu aku: ina e hahau hou ia ia, a nai ka hahau ana, e lilo auanei kou hoahanau i mea hoowahawahaia i kou maka.
Forty stripes he may give him, [and] not exceed: lest [if] he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then thy brother should seem vile to thee.
4 Mai hoopaa aku oe i ka waha o ka bipi e hehi ana i ka palaoa.
Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out [the corn].
5 Ina e noho pu na hoahanau kane, a make kekahi o lakou, aohe ana keiki, mai mare ka wahine a ka mea i make i ka malihini mawaho: na ka hoahanau o kana kane e hele iloko io na la, a e lawe ia ia i wahine nana, a e malama aka i ka oihana o ka hoahanau o kana kane.
If brethren shall dwell together, and one of them shall die and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without to a stranger: her husband's brother shall go in to her, and take her to him for a wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother to her.
6 A o ka hanau mua ana e hanau ai, e lawe no ia i ka inoa o kona hoahanau i make, i nalowale ole ai kona inoa mai ka Iseraela aku.
And it shall be, [that] the first-born which she beareth, shall succeed in the name of his brother [who is] dead, that his name may not become extinct in Israel.
7 Ina makemake ole ke kanaka e lawe i ka wahine a kona hoahanau, alaila e pii ka wahine a kona hoahanau ma ka ipaka i na lunakahiko, a e i aku, Ua hoole ka hoahanau o kuu kane e hooku i ka inoa no kona hoahanau iloko o ka Iseraela, aole ia i haliu mai e malama i ka oihana o ka hoahanau o kuu kane.
And if the man shall not like to take his brother's wife, then let his brother's wife go up to the gate to the elders, and say, My husband's brother refuseth to raise up to his brother a name in Israel, he will not perform the duty of my husband's brother.
8 Alaila e kahea aku na lunakahiko o kona kulanakauhale ia ia, a e olelo aku ia ia; a i kupaa ia, a e i mai, Aole o'u makemake e lawe ia ia;
Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak to him: and [if] he shall stand [to it], and say, I like not to take her,
9 Alaila e hele mai ka wahine a kona hoahanau ia ia imua o na lunakahiko, a e kala ae i kona kamaa mai kona wawae, a e kuha aku i kona maka, me ka olelo aku, Pela e hanaia'ku ai i ke kanaka, i ka mea kukulu ole i ka hale o kona hoahanau.
Then shall his brother's wife come to him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done to that man that will not build up his brother's house.
10 A e kapaia kona inoa iloko o ka Iseraela, O ka hale o ka mea i kalaia kona kamaa.
And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that hath his shoe loosed.
11 A i hakaka pu na kanaka, kekahi kanaka a me kona hoahanau, a hookokoke mai ka wahine a kekahi e hoopakele i kana kane i ka lima o ka mea i pepehi mai ia ia, a hoopaa aku ia ia ma kona wahi hilahila:
When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near to deliver her husband from the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets:
12 E oki ae i kona lima, mai minamina koa maka.
Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thy eye shall not pity [her].
13 Mai waiho iloko o kou aa i na mea kaupouna ano lua, i ka mea nui a me ka mea uuku.
Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small:
14 Aole hoi ma kou hale na ana elua, o ka mea nui, a me ka mea uuku.
Thou shalt not have in thy house divers measures, a great and a small:
15 E malama oe i ka pouna pono, a me ka pololei, a me ke ana pono a me ka pololei; i loihi ai koa mau la ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua i haawi mai ai ia oe.
[But] thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure shalt thou have; that thy days may be lengthened in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
16 No ka mea, ua hoowahawahaia e Iehova na mea a pau e hana ana i keia mau mea, a me ka poe a pau e hana ana i ka mea pono ole.
For all that do such things, [and] all that do unrighteously, [are] an abomination to the LORD thy God.
17 E hoomanao i ka mea a ka Amaleka i hana mai ai ia oe ma ke ala i ko oakoa hele ana, mai Aigupita mai.
Remember what Amalek did to thee by the way, when ye had come forth from Egypt;
18 I ko lakou halawai ana me oe ma ke ala, a pepehi mai ma kou hope i na mea nawaliwali a pau mahope ou ia oe i nawaliwali ai, a i maloeloe ai; aole lakou i makau i ke Akua.
How he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, [even] all [that were] feeble behind thee, when thou [wast] faint and weary; and he feared not God.
19 No ia mea, aia hoomaha mai o Iehova kou Akua ia oe mai kou poe enemi a puni, ma ka aina a Ienova kou Akua i hoolilo mai ai nou, e hokai loa aku oe i ka Amaleka malalo ae o ka lani; mai hoopoina oe.
Therefore it shall be, when the LORD thy God hath given thee rest from all thy enemies on all sides, in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance to possess it, [that] thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; thou shalt not forget [it].
