Êxodo 20

Ngā Ture Tekau

1 Nā, ka kōrerotia e te Atua ēnei kupu katoa, ka mea:

2 "Ko Ihowā ahau, ko tōu Atua, nāku koe i whakaputa mai i te whenua o Īhipa, i te whare pononga; 3 aua ētahi atua kē atu mōu ki mua i ahau.

4 "Kei hanga koe i te whakapakoko mōu, i tētahi ritenga rānei o ngā mea o te rangi i runga, o te whenua rānei i raro, o te wai rānei i raro i te whenua. 5 Kei koropiko koe ki ēnā mea, kei mahi rānei ki ēnā mea; ko Ihowā hoki ahau, ko tōu Atua, he Atua hae, e mea ana i ngā hara o ngā mātua kia tau iho ki ngā tamariki ā te toru, te whā rā anō o ngā whakatupuranga o te hunga e kino ana ki ahau; 6 e whakaputa aroha ana hoki ki ngā mano, ki te hunga e aroha ana ki ahau, e whakarite ana i āku ture.

7 "Kei whakahuatia noatia e koe te ingoa o Ihowā, o tōu Atua; e kore hoki a Ihowā e mea, he harakore te tangata e whakahua noa ana i tōna ingoa.

8 "Kia mahara ki te rā hāpati, kia whakatapua. 9 E ono ngā rā e mahi ai koe, e mea ai hoki i āu mea katoa. 10 Tēnā ko te rā whitu, he hāpati nō Ihowā, nō tōu Atua; kaua e mahia tētahi mahi i reira – e koe, e tāu tama, e tāu tamāhine, e tāu pononga tāne, e tāu pononga wahine, e āu kararehe hoki, me tōu tangata kē i roto i ōu tatau. 11 E ono hoki ngā rā i hangā ai e Ihowā te rangi, me te whenua, te moana, me ngā mea katoa i roto, ā, okioki ana i te rā whitu. Nā reira i whakapaingia ai te rā hāpati e Ihowā, ā whakatapua ana.

12 "Whakahōnoretia tōu pāpā me tōu whaea; kia roa ai ōu rā ki te whenua e hōmai nei e Ihowā, e tōu Atua, ki a koe.

13 "Kaua e patu.

14 "Kaua e pūremu.

15 "Kaua e tāhae.

16 "Kaua e whakapae teka ki tōu hoa.

17 "Kaua e hiahia ki te whare o tōu hoa. Kaua e hiahia ki te wahine a tōu hoa, ki tāna pononga tāne rānei, ki tāna pononga wahine rānei, ki tāna kau rānei, ki tana kāihe rānei, ki tētahi mea rānei a tōu hoa."

18 Ā, i kite te iwi katoa i ngā whatitiri, i ngā uira, i te tangi o te tētere, i te maunga hoki e paowa ana; ā, i te kitenga o te iwi, ka wiri rātou, ā, tū rawa i tawhiti. 19 Ā, ka mea rātou ki a Mohi, "Māu e kōrero mai ki a mātou, ā, ka whakarongo atu mātou; engari kaua te Atua e kōrero ki a mātou, kei mate mātou."

20 Nā, ka mea a Mohi ki te iwi, "Kaua e wehi; he whakamātau hoki i a koutou i haere mai ai te Atua, kia mau ai hoki tōna wehi i ō koutou kanohi, kei hara koutou."

21 Ā, tū ana te iwi i tawhiti; ko Mohi ia, i whakatata ki te pōuri kerekere i noho ai te Atua.

Te Ture e Pā ana ki te Āta

22 Ā, ka mea a Ihowā ki a Mohi: "Kia pēnei tāu kupu ki ngā tama a Īharaira: ‘Ka kite koutou kua kōrero ahau i te rangi ki a koutou. 23 Kei hanga koutou he atua kē atu ki tōku taha; kei hanga koutou he atua hiriwa, he atua kōura rānei, mō koutou.

24 " ‘Hangā he āta oneone māku, ki runga patu ai koe i āu tahunga tinana, i āu whakahere mō te pai, i āu hipi, i āu kau. I ngā wāhi katoa e whakamaharatia ai e ahau tōku ingoa ka haere atu ahau ki a koe, ka manaaki i a koe. 25 Ā, ki te hanga koe i te āta kōhatu māku, kei hangā e koe ki te kōhatu hahau; ki te hāpai hoki koe i tāu toki ki taua mea, kua whakanoatia e koe. 26 Kaua anō e piki nā te arawhata ki tōku āta, kei kitea koe i reira e tū tahanga ana.’ "

1 And God spake all these words, saying,

2 I am Jehovah thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

4 Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, nor any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: 5 thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them; for I Jehovah thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me, 6 and showing lovingkindness unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.

7 Thou shalt not take the name of Jehovah thy God in vain; for Jehovah will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work; 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath unto Jehovah thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: 11 for in six days Jehovah made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Jehovah blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

12 Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.

13 Thou shalt not kill.

14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.

15 Thou shalt not steal.

16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.

17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbor’s.

18 And all the people perceived the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the voice of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it, they trembled, and stood afar off. 19 And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear; but let not God speak with us, lest we die. 20 And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before you, that ye sin not. 21 And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God was.

22 And Jehovah said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say unto the children of Israel, Ye yourselves have seen that I have talked with you from heaven. 23 Ye shall not make other gods with me; gods of silver, or gods of gold, ye shall not make unto you. 24 An altar of earth thou shalt make unto me, and shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt-offerings, and thy peace-offerings, thy sheep, and thine oxen: in every place where I record my name I will come unto thee and I will bless thee. 25 And if thou make me an altar of stone, thou shalt not build it of hewn stones; for if thou lift up thy tool upon it, thou hast polluted it. 26 Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto mine altar, that thy nakedness be not uncovered thereon.
