Levítico 18

Whakakore te Taitōkai

1 I kōrero anō a Ihowā ki a Mohi, i mea, 2 "Kōrero ki ngā tama a Īharaira, mea atu ki a rātou: Ko Ihowā ahau, ko tō koutou Atua. 3 Kei rite ā koutou mahi ki ngā mahi a te whenua o Īhipa, i noho nā koutou. Kei rite hoki ā koutou mahi ki ngā mahi a te whenua o Kanaana, e kawea nei koutou e ahau ki reira. Kei haere i runga i ā rātou tikanga. 4 Me mahi āku whakaritenga, kia mau ki āku tikanga, me haere hoki i reira; ko Ihowā ahau, ko tō koutou Atua. 5 Inā, kia mau ki āku tikanga, ki āku whakaritenga; ki te mahia hoki ēnā e te tangata, mā reira e ora ai. Ko Ihowā ahau.

6 "Kaua tētahi o koutou e whakatata ki tētahi o ōna whanaunga tupu, hura ai i tō rātou kiri tahanga: Ko Ihowā ahau.

7 "Kei hurahia e koe tōu pāpā, tōu whaea rānei, kia takoto tahanga; ko tōu whaea ia; kei hurahia e koe kia takoto tahanga.

8 "Kei hurahia e koe kia takoto tahanga te wahine a tōu pāpā; ko te wāhi takoto tahanga ia o tōu pāpā.

9 "Kei hurahia e koe kia takoto tahanga tōu tuahine, te tamāhine a tōu pāpā, te tamāhine rānei a tōu whaea, ahakoa i whānau ki te kāinga, i whānau rānei ki tētahi atu wāhi; kei hurahia rāua e koe kia takoto tahanga.

10 "Kei hurahia e koe kia takoto tahanga te tamāhine a tāu tama, te tamāhine rānei a tāu tamāhine, kei hurahia rāua e koe kia takoto tahanga; nōu hoki te wāhi o rāua i takoto tahanga nā.

11 "Kei takoto tahanga i a koe te tamāhine a te wahine a tōu pāpā, te whānau a tōu pāpā, he tuahine ia nōu, kei hurahia ia e koe kia takoto tahanga.

12 "Kei hurahia te tuahine o tōu pāpā kia takoto tahanga; he whanaunga tupu ia nō tōu pāpā.

13 "Kei hurahia e koe te tuakana, teina rānei, o tōu whaea kia takoto tahanga; he whanaunga tupu hoki ia nō tōu whaea.

14 "Kei hurahia e koe kia takoto tahanga te teina, tuakana rānei, o tōu pāpā, kei whakatata koe ki tāna wahine; ko tōu whaea kēkē ia.

15 "Kei hurahia e koe tāu hunaonga kia takoto tahanga; ko te wahine ia a tāu tama, kei hurahia ia e koe kia takoto tahanga.

16 "Kei hurahia e koe kia takoto tahanga te wahine a tōu tuakana, teina rānei; nō tōu tuakana, teina rānei, taua wāhi i takoto tahanga nā.

17 "Kei hurahia e koe kia takoto tahanga te wahine rāua ko tāna tamāhine, kaua anō e tangohia te tamāhine a tāna tama, te tamāhine rānei a tāna tamāhine, hura ai i a ia kia takoto tahanga; he whanaunga pū hoki rātou ki a ia; he mea kino tēnā.

18 "Kaua anō hoki e tangohia he wahine ki te taha o tōna tuakana, teina rānei, hei whakatetetete ki a ia; kaua ia e hurahia kia takoto tahanga, me te ora anō hoki tērā.

19 "Kaua anō hoki e whakatata ki te wahine ki te hura i a ia kia takoto tahanga, i a ia e poke ana i te paheketanga.

20 "Kaua anō hoki e takoto pūremu ki te wahine a tōu hoa, whakapoke ai i a koe ki a ia.

21 "Kaua anō e tukua tētahi o ōu uri kia haere nā waenga ahi hei mea ki a Moreke, kaua anō e whakanoatia te ingoa o tōu Atua. Ko Ihowā ahau.

22 "Kei takotoria wahinetia te tāne; he mea whakarihariha tēnā.

23 "Kaua anō hoki e takoto ki tētahi kararehe, whakapoke ai i a koe ki taua mea. Kaua hoki tētahi wahine e tū ki te aroaro o tētahi kararehe, takoto tahi ai rāua; he mea anuanu tēnā.

24 "Kei poke koutou i tētahi o ēnei mea; e poke ana hoki i ēnei mea katoa ngā iwi ka peia nei e ahau i tō koutou aroaro. 25 Kua poke anō hoki te whenua; koia ahau i mea ai kia tau iho tōna kino ki runga ki a ia; ā, e whakaruaki ana te whenua i ōna tāngata. 26 Mō reira kia mau ki āku tikanga ki āku whakaritenga whakawā; kaua anō e mahia tētahi o ēnei mea whakarihariha e te tangata whenua, e te manene rānei i roto i a koutou 27 (nō te mea kua mahia ēnei mea whakarihariha katoa e ngā tāngata whenua ō mua i a koutou, ā, poke iho te whenua); 28 kei whakaruakina anō hoki koutou e te whenua, ina poke i a koutou, pērā me ngā iwi e whakaruakina nei i tō koutou aroaro.

29 "Ki te mahia hoki tētahi o ēnei mea whakarihariha e tētahi tangata, inā, ka hātepea atu ngā wairua e pēnā i roto i tō rātou iwi. 30 Nō reira kia mau ki āku i whakahau atu ai, kei mahia e koutou tētahi o ēnei ritenga whakarihariha i mahia nei i mua i a koutou, kei poke hoki koutou i aua mea. Ko Ihowā ahau, ko tō koutou Atua."

1 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am Jehovah your God. 3 After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do; neither shall ye walk in their statutes. 4 Mine ordinances shall ye do, and my statutes shall ye keep, to walk therein: I am Jehovah your God. 5 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and mine ordinances; which if a man do, he shall live in them: I am Jehovah.

6 None of you shall approach to any that are near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness: I am Jehovah. 7 The nakedness of thy father, even the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness. 8 The nakedness of thy father’s wife shalt thou not uncover; it is thy father’s nakedness. 9 The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or the daughter of thy mother, whether born at home, or born abroad, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover. 10 The nakedness of thy son’s daughter, or of thy daughter’s daughter, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs is thine own nakedness. 11 The nakedness of thy father’s wife’s daughter, begotten of thy father, she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness. 12 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s sister: she is thy father’s near kinswoman. 13 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister: for she is thy mother’s near kinswoman. 14 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s brother, thou shalt not approach to his wife: she is thine aunt. 15 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter-in-law: she is thy son’s wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness. 16 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother’s wife: it is thy brother’s nakedness. 17 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter; thou shalt not take her son’s daughter, or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness; they are near kinswomen: it is wickedness. 18 And thou shalt not take a wife to her sister, to be a rival to her, to uncover her nakedness, besides the other in her life-time.

19 And thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is impure by her uncleanness. 20 And thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbor’s wife, to defile thyself with her. 21 And thou shalt not give any of thy seed to make them pass through the fire to Molech; neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am Jehovah. 22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. 23 And thou shalt not lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith; neither shall any woman stand before a beast, to lie down thereto: it is confusion.

24 Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out from before you; 25 and the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land vomiteth out her inhabitants. 26 Ye therefore shall keep my statutes and mine ordinances, and shall not do any of these abominations; neither the home-born, nor the stranger that sojourneth among you 27 (for all these abominations have the men of the land done, that were before you, and the land is defiled); 28 that the land vomit not you out also, when ye defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you. 29 For whosoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people. 30 Therefore shall ye keep my charge, that ye practise not any of these abominable customs, which were practised before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am Jehovah your God.
