Tiuteronomi 14

1 Ko koutou nga tamariki a Ihowa, a to koutou Atua: kaua koutou e haehae i a koutou, kaua hoki e tiwhaina a waenganui o o koutou kanohi mo te tupapaku.

You are sons of the LORD your God; do not cut yourselves or shave your foreheads on behalf of the dead,

2 He iwi tapu hoki koe ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, a kua whiriwhiri a Ihowa i a koe hei iwi mana, motuhake rawa i nga iwi katoa i te mata o te whenua.

for you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD has chosen you to be a people for His prized possession out of all the peoples on the face of the earth.

3 Kaua e kainga tetahi mea whakarihariha.

You must not eat any detestable thing.

4 Ko nga kararehe enei e kai ai koutou: ko te kau, ko te hipi, ko te koati,

These are the animals that you may eat: The ox, the sheep, the goat,

5 Ko te hata, ko te kahera, ko te ropaka, ko te koati mohoao, ko te pikareka, ko te anaterope, ko te temera.

the deer, the gazelle, the roe deer, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the mountain sheep.

6 Ko nga kararehe katoa hoki e tararua ana te matimati, e weherua ana te titorehanga, e rua nei nga matimati, a e whakahoki ake ana i te kai, i roto i nga kararehe, ko ena me kai.

You may eat any animal that has a split hoof divided in two and that chews the cud.

7 Otiia kaua e kainga enei o nga mea e whakahoki ake ana i te kai, o nga mea hoki e tararua ana nga matimati, e titore pu ana; ko te kamera, ko te hea, ko te koni, no te mea e whakahoki ake ana ratou i te kai, otiia kihai i tararua te matimati; hei mea poke ena ki a koutou:

But of those that chew the cud or have a completely divided hoof, you are not to eat the following: the camel, the rabbit, or the rock badger. Although they chew the cud, they do not have a divided hoof. They are unclean for you,

8 Me te poaka hoki, no te mea e titore ana nga matimati, otiia kahore e whakahoki ake ana i te kai; hei mea poke tena ki a koutou: kaua e kainga o ratou kikokiko, kaua hoki e pa atu ki o ratou tinana mate.

as well as the pig; though it has a divided hoof, it does not chew the cud. It is unclean for you. You must not eat its meat or touch its carcass.

9 Ko enei a koutou e kai ai o nga mea katoa o roto i te wai: ko nga mea katoa e whai tara ana, e whai unahi ana, ko ena ta koutou e kai:

Of all the creatures that live in the water, you may eat anything with fins and scales,

10 A ko nga mea kahore he tara, kahore hoki he unahi i a ratou, kaua e kainga; hei mea poke ena ki a koutou.

but you may not eat anything that does not have fins and scales; it is unclean for you.

11 Ko nga manu pokekore katoa me kai e koutou.

You may eat any clean bird,

12 Engari tenei ano nga mea kaua e kainga e koutou: ko te ekara, ko te wawahi iwi, me te ahipare,

but these you may not eat: the eagle, the bearded vulture, the black vulture,

13 Ko te kireti, ko te kaiaia, ko te whatura, me nga mea pera,

the red kite, the falcon, any kind of kite,

14 Ko nga raweni katoa, me nga mea pera,

any kind of raven,

15 Ko te otereti, ko te kahu po, ko te koekoea, ko te kahu, me nga mea pera,

the ostrich, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk,

16 Ko te ruru nohinohi, ko te ruru nui, ko te wani,

the little owl, the great owl, the white owl,

17 Ko te perikana, ko te kia ekara, ko te kawau,

the desert owl, the osprey, the cormorant,

18 Ko te taaka, ko te heroni, ko nga pera, ko te hupou, ko te pekapeka.

the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, or the bat.

19 A ko nga mea ngoki katoa e rere a manu ana, he mea poke ena ki a koutou: kaua e kainga.

All flying insects are unclean for you; they may not be eaten.

20 Ko nga manu pokekore katoa me kai.

But you may eat any clean bird.

21 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.

You are not to eat any carcass; you may give it to the foreigner residing within your gates, and he may eat it, or you may sell it to a foreigner. For you are a holy people belonging to the LORD your God. You must not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.

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

You must be sure to set aside a tenth of all the produce brought forth each year from your fields.

23 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.

And you are to eat a tenth of your grain, new wine, and oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks, in the presence of the LORD your God at the place He will choose as a dwelling for His Name, so that you may learn to fear the LORD your God always.

24 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:

But if the distance is too great for you to carry that with which the LORD your God has blessed you, because the place where the LORD your God will choose to put His Name is too far away,

25 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:

then exchange it for money, take the money in your hand, and go to the place the LORD your God will choose.

26 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:

Then you may spend the money on anything you desire: cattle, sheep, wine, strong drink, or anything you wish. You are to feast there in the presence of the LORD your God and rejoice with your household.

27 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.

And do not neglect the Levite within your gates, since he has no portion or inheritance among you.

28 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:

At the end of every three years, bring a tenth of all your produce for that year and lay it up within your gates.

29 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.

Then the Levite (because he has no portion or inheritance among you), the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow within your gates may come and eat and be satisfied. And the LORD your God will bless you in all the work of your hands.
