Tiuteronomi 27

Ngā Ture o te Atua i Tuhituhi i ngā Kōhatu

1 Nā, ka whakahau a Mohi rātou ko ngā kaumātua o Īharaira i te iwi, ka mea: "Puritia ngā whakahau katoa e whakahau nei ahau ki a koutou i tēnei rā. 2 Ā tēnei ake, ā te rā e whiti atu ai koutou i Horano ki te whenua e hōmai ana e Ihowā, e tōu Atua, ki a koe, nā, ka whakaara ake koe i ētahi kōhatu nunui māu, ka pani hoki ki te raima. 3 Ka tuhituhi hoki i ngā kupu katoa o tēnei ture ki reira, ua whiti atu koe; kia haere atu koe ki te whenua e hōmai ana e Ihowā, e tōu Atua, ki a koe, ki te whenua e rerengia ana e te waiū, e te honi, kia pērā me tā Ihowā, me tā te Atua o ōu mātua, i kōrero ai ki a koe. 4 Mō reira, e whiti koutou i Horano, me whakaara ēnei kōhatu e whakahaua nei e ahau i tēnei rā ki a koutou, ki runga ki Maunga Ēpara ka pani hoki ki te raima. 5 Ā, me hanga e koe ki reira tētahi āta mā Ihowā, mā tōu Atua, hei te āta kōhatu; kaua e ākina iho e koe ki te rino. 6 Me hanga e koe te āta mā Ihowā, mā tōu Atua, ki ngā kōhatu toitū; ka whakaeke ai i ngā tahunga tinana mā Ihowā, mā tōu Atua, ki runga; 7 patua hoki ngā whakahere mō te pai, ā, kainga ki reira; me te koa anō ki te aroaro o Ihowā, o tōu Atua. 8 Ka tuhituhi hoki i ngā kupu o tēnei ture ki ngā kōhatu, kia mārama tonu."

9 I kōrero anō a Mohi rātou ko ngā tohunga, ko ngā Rīwaiti, ki a Īharaira, i mea, "Noho puku mai, ā, whakarongo, e Īharaira; nō tēnei rā i meinga ai koe hei iwi mō Ihowā, mō tōu Atua. 10 Nā, me whakarongo koe ki te reo o Ihowā, o tōu Atua, me mahi hoki i āna whakahau, me āna tikanga e whakahaua atu nei e ahau ki a koe i tēnei rā."

He Kanga ki te Mahi Tutū

11 I whakahau hoki a Mohi i te iwi i taua rangi anō, i mea: 12 Ko ēnei e tū ki runga ki Maunga Keritimi hei manaaki i te iwi, ua whiti atu koutou i Horano; ko Himiona, ko Rīwai, ko Hūrā, ko Ihākara, rātou ko Hōhepa, ko Pineamine. 13 Ko ēnei e tū ki runga ki Maunga Ēpara hei kanga; ko Reupena, ko Kara, ko Āhera, ko Hepurona, ko Rāna, ko Napatari. 14 Nā, ka kōrero ngā Rīwaiti, ka mea, kia nui hoki te reo, ki ngā tāngata katoa o Īharaira:

15 "Kia kangā te tangata e hanga ana i te whakapakoko, i te mea whakairo, whakarewa rānei, e whakariharihangia nei e Ihowā, he mea mahi nā te ringa o te kaimahi, e whakanoho ana hoki i taua mea ki te wāhi ngaro."

Mā te iwi katoa e whakahoki, e mea, "Āmine."

16 "Kia kangā te tangata e whakahāwea ana ki tōna pāpā, ki tōna whaea rānei."

Mā te iwi katoa e whakahoki, e mea, "Āmine."

17 "Kia kangā te tangata e neke atu ana i te rohe o tōna hoa."
