< Deuteronomy 7 >

1 When the LORD your God brings you into the land where you go to possess it, and casts out many nations before you—the Hittite, the Girgashite, the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite—seven nations greater and mightier than you;
A IA kai aku o Iehova kou Akua ia oe i ka aina au e hele aku nei e noho ilaila, a hookuke aku ia i na lahuikanaka, he nui mamua ou, i ka Heta, i ka Giregasa, me ka Amora, me ka Kanaana, me ka Periza, me ka Heva, a me ka Iebusa, i ehiku lahuikanaka, ua oi aku ko lakou nui a me ko lakou ikaika i kou;
2 and when the LORD your God delivers them up before you, and you strike them, then you shall utterly destroy them. You shall make no covenant with them, nor show mercy to them.
A hoolilo mai o Iehova kou Akua ia lakou imua ou; alaila e pepehi aku oe ia lakou, a pau lakou i ka make; mai hookuikahi oe me lakou; a mai aloha aku ia lakou:
3 You shall not make marriages with them. You shall not give your daughter to his son, nor shall you take his daughter for your son.
Mai hoopalau hoi me lakou; mai haawi i kau kaikamahine na kana keikikane; mai lawe oe i kana kaikamahine na kau keikikane.
4 For that would turn away your sons from following me, that they may serve other gods. So the LORD’s anger would be kindled against you, and he would destroy you quickly.
No ka mea, e hoohuli ae lakou i kau keiki, i ole ia e hahai mai ia'u, i malama aku lakou i na akua e: pela e hoaaia mai ai ka inaina o Iehova ia oukou, a e luku koke mai ia oe.
5 But you shall deal with them like this: you shall break down their altars, dash their pillars in pieces, cut down their Asherah poles, and burn their engraved images with fire.
Penei oukou hana aku ai ia lakou; e hoohiolo oukou i ko lakou mau kuahu, e wawahi iho i ko lakou poe kii, e kua ilalo i ko lakou mau kii o Asetarota, a e puhi aku i ko lakou mau kiikalaiia i ke ahi.
6 For you are a holy people to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.
No ka mea, he poe kanaka laa oukou no Iehova kou Akua: na Iehova na kou Akua i wae mai ia oukou, i poe kanaka ponoi nona, mamua o na kanaka a pau maluna o ka honua.
7 The LORD did not set his love on you nor choose you, because you were more in number than any people; for you were the fewest of all peoples;
Aole o Iehova i aloha mai ia oukou, a i wae mai ia oukou, no ka oi o ko oukou nui i ko na kanaka e ae a pau; no ka mea, he poe uuku oukou i na kanaka a pau:
8 but because the LORD loves you, and because he desires to keep the oath which he swore to your fathers, the LORD has brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
Aka, no ke aloha o Iehova ia oukou, a no kona malama i ka hoohiki ana i hoohiki ai i ko oukou poe kupuna; nolaila i kai mai nei o Iehova ia oukou me ka lima ikaika, a e hoopakele ia oukou mai ka hale hooluhi mai, mailoko mai o ka lima o Parao, ke alii o Aigupita.
9 Know therefore that the LORD your God himself is God, the faithful God, who keeps covenant and loving kindness to a thousand generations with those who love him and keep his commandments,
E ike hoi oe, o Iehova kou Akua, oia no ke Akua, he Akua oiaio, e malama ana i ka berita, a i ke aloha no ka poe i aloha aku ia ia, a malama hoi i kana mau kauoha, a hiki i ke tausani o na hanauna:
10 and repays those who hate him to their face, to destroy them. He will not be slack to him who hates him. He will repay him to his face.
A e hoopai koke ana hoi i ka poe inaina ia ia, e luku ia lakou, aole ia e lohi i ka mea inaina ia ia, e hoopai koke ana no ia ia.
11 You shall therefore keep the commandments, the statutes, and the ordinances which I command you today, to do them.
Nolaila, e malama oe i na kauoha a me na kanawai, a me na olelo kupaa a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oe i keia la, a e hana hoi ia mea.
12 It shall happen, because you listen to these ordinances and keep and do them, that the LORD your God will keep with you the covenant and the loving kindness which he swore to your fathers.
No ia hoi, ina e hoolohe oukou i keia mau olelo kupaa, a e malama, a e hana hoi ia mau mea, alaila e malama mai o Iehova kou Akua i ka berita a me ke aloha nou, ana i hoohiki ai i kou poe kupuna.
13 He will love you, bless you, and multiply you. He will also bless the fruit of your body and the fruit of your ground, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your livestock and the young of your flock, in the land which he swore to your fathers to give you.
A e aloha mai ia ia oe a e hoopomaikai mai ia oe, a e hoomahuahua mai ia oe: e hoopomaikai mai hoi ia i ka hua o kou opu, a me ka hua o kou aina, i kau palaoa a me kou waina, a me kou aila, a me ka hanau ana o kou poe bipi, a me kau poe hipa, ma ka aina ana i hoohiki ai i kou mau kupuna e haawi mai ia oe.
14 You will be blessed above all peoples. There will not be male or female barren among you, or among your livestock.
E oi aku kou hoopomaikaiia mamua o ko ua kanaka a pau: aole he kane keiki ole, aole he wahine pa iwaena o oukou, aole hoi iwaena o na holoholona a oukou.
15 The LORD will take away from you all sickness; and he will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which you know, on you, but will lay them on all those who hate you.
A e lawe aku o Iehova i na mai a pau mai ou aku nei, aole hoi ia e kau i kekahi mai ahulau o Aigupita maluna iho ou, au i ike ai; aka, e kau aku kela ia mea maluna iho o ka poe a pau e inaina mai ia oe.
16 You shall consume all the peoples whom the LORD your God shall deliver to you. Your eye shall not pity them. You shall not serve their gods; for that would be a snare to you.
A e hoopau aku oe i na kanaka a pau a Iehova kou Akua e hoolilo mai nou; mai minamina aku kou maka ia lakou, mai malama hoi oe i ko lakou mau akua; no ka mea, e lilo ia i mea hihia nou.
17 If you shall say in your heart, “These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them?”
Ina paha e i iho oe maloko o kou naau, Ua oi aku ka nui o keia mau lahuikanaka i ko'u; pehea la e hiki ia'u ke kipaku aku ia lakou?
18 you shall not be afraid of them. You shall remember well what the LORD your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt:
Mai makau oe ia lakou; e hoomanao pono oe i ka mea a Iehova kou Akua i hana'i ia Parao, a me ko Aigupita a pau:
19 the great trials which your eyes saw, the signs, the wonders, the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which the LORD your God brought you out. So shall the LORD your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid.
I na hoao nui a kou maka i ike ai, a me na hoailona, a me na mea kupanaha, a me ka lima ikaika, a me ka lima kakauha a Iehova kou Akua i lawe mai nei ia oe; pela no o Iehova kou Akua e hana aku ai i na kanaka a pau au e makau nei.
20 Moreover the LORD your God will send the hornet among them, until those who are left, and hide themselves, perish from before you.
A e hoouna aku hoi o Iehova kou Akua i ka nalohopeeha iwaena o lakou, a pau lakou i ka lukuia, ka poe i waihoia, a me ka poe i pee mai ou aku la.
21 You shall not be scared of them; for the LORD your God is among you, a great and awesome God.
Mai makau oe ia lakou; no ka mea, iwaena ou o Iehova kou Akua, he Akua nui, hooweliweli.
22 The LORD your God will cast out those nations before you little by little. You may not consume them at once, lest the animals of the field increase on you.
A e kipaku liilii aku o Iehova kou Akua i kela mau luhuikanaka mamua ou: mai luku koke aku ia lakou a pau, o nui mai auanei na holoholona e alo mai ia oe.
23 But the LORD your God will deliver them up before you, and will confuse them with a great confusion, until they are destroyed.
A o Iehova kou Akua e hoolilo mai ia lakou imua ou, a e luku aku ia lakou me ka luku nui, a pau lakou i ka make.
24 He will deliver their kings into your hand, and you shall make their name perish from under the sky. No one will be able to stand before you until you have destroyed them.
A e hoolilo mai ia i ko lakou mau alii iloko o kou lima, a e hokai oe i ko lakou inoa malalo iho o ka lani; aole e hiki i kekahi kanaka ke ku imua ou, a pau lakou i ka lukuia e oe.
25 You shall burn the engraved images of their gods with fire. You shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it for yourself, lest you be snared in it; for it is an abomination to the LORD your God.
O na kii o ko lakou mau akua e puhi oukou i ke ahi; mai kuko aku oe i ke kala a i ke gula maluna o ia mea, aole hoi e lawe ia mea nau, o hihia auanei oe ilaila; no ka mea, he mea hoowahawahaia e Iehova kou Akua.
26 You shall not bring an abomination into your house and become a devoted thing like it. You shall utterly detest it. You shall utterly abhor it; for it is a devoted thing.
Aole hoi e lawe oe maloko o kou hale i ka mea hoowahawahaia, o lilo auanei oe i mea laa e like me ia; e hoowahawaha loa aku oe ia mea, a e hoopailua loa aku oe ia mea; no ka mea, he mea laa ia.
