1 It shall happen, if you shall listen diligently to Yahweh your God’s voice, to observe to do all his commandments which I command you today, that Yahweh your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth. 2 All these blessings will come upon you, and overtake you, if you listen to Yahweh your God’s voice. 3 You shall be blessed in the city, and you shall be blessed in the field. 4 You shall be blessed in the fruit of your body, the fruit of your ground, the fruit of your animals, the increase of your livestock, and the young of your flock. 5 Your basket and your kneading trough shall be blessed. 6 You shall be blessed when you come in, and you shall be blessed when you go out. 7 Yahweh will cause your enemies who rise up against you to be struck before you. They will come out against you one way, and will flee before you seven ways. 8 Yahweh will command the blessing on you in your barns, and in all that you put your hand to. He will bless you in the land which Yahweh your God gives you. 9 Yahweh will establish you for a holy people to himself, as he has sworn to you, if you shall keep the commandments of Yahweh your God, and walk in his ways. 10 All the peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by Yahweh’s name, and they will be afraid of you. 11 Yahweh will grant you abundant prosperity in the fruit of your body, in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground, in the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers to give you. 12 Yahweh will open to you his good treasure in the sky, to give the rain of your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand. You will lend to many nations, and you will not borrow. 13 Yahweh will make you the head, and not the tail. You will be above only, and you will not be beneath, if you listen to the commandments of Yahweh your God which I command you today, to observe and to do, 14 and shall not turn away from any of the words which I command you today, to the right hand or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.
15 But it shall come to pass, if you will not listen to Yahweh your God’s voice, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command you today, that all these curses will come on you and overtake you. 16 You will be cursed in the city, and you will be cursed in the field. 17 Your basket and your kneading trough will be cursed. 18 The fruit of your body, the fruit of your ground, the increase of your livestock, and the young of your flock will be cursed. 19 You will be cursed when you come in, and you will be cursed when you go out. 20 Yahweh will send on you cursing, confusion, and rebuke in all that you put your hand to do, until you are destroyed and until you perish quickly, because of the evil of your doings, by which you have forsaken me. 21 Yahweh will make the pestilence cling to you, until he has consumed you from off the land where you go in to possess it. 22 Yahweh will strike you with consumption, with fever, with inflammation, with fiery heat, with the sword, with blight, and with mildew. They will pursue you until you perish. 23 Your sky that is over your head will be bronze, and the earth that is under you will be iron. 24 Yahweh will make the rain of your land powder and dust. It will come down on you from the sky, until you are destroyed. 25 Yahweh will cause you to be struck before your enemies. You will go out one way against them, and will flee seven ways before them. You will be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth. 26 Your dead bodies will be food to all birds of the sky, and to the animals of the earth; and there will be no one to frighten them away. 27 Yahweh will strike you with the boils of Egypt, with the tumors, with the scurvy, and with the itch, of which you can not be healed. 28 Yahweh will strike you with madness, with blindness, and with astonishment of heart. 29 You will grope at noonday, as the blind gropes in darkness, and you shall not prosper in your ways. You will only be oppressed and robbed always, and there will be no one to save you. 30 You will betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her. You will build a house, and you won’t dwell in it. You will plant a vineyard, and not use its fruit. 31 Your ox will be slain before your eyes, and you will not eat any of it. Your donkey will be violently taken away from before your face, and will not be restored to you. Your sheep will be given to your enemies, and you will have no one to save you. 32 Your sons and your daughters will be given to another people. Your eyes will look and fail with longing for them all day long. There will be no power in your hand. 33 A nation which you don’t know will eat the fruit of your ground and all of your work. You will only be oppressed and crushed always, 34 so that the sights that you see with your eyes will drive you mad. 35 Yahweh will strike you in the knees and in the legs with a sore boil, of which you cannot be healed, from the sole of your foot to the crown of your head. 36 Yahweh will bring you, and your king whom you will set over yourselves, to a nation that you have not known, you nor your fathers. There you will serve other gods of wood and stone. 37 You will become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword among all the peoples where Yahweh will lead you away. 38 You will carry much seed out into the field, and will gather little in, for the locust will consume it. 39 You will plant vineyards and dress them, but you will neither drink of the wine, nor harvest, because worms will eat them. 40 You will have olive trees throughout all your borders, but you won’t anoint yourself with the oil, for your olives will drop off. 41 You will father sons and daughters, but they will not be yours, for they will go into captivity. 42 Locusts will consume all of your trees and the fruit of your ground. 43 The foreigner who is among you will mount up above you higher and higher, and you will come down lower and lower. 44 He will lend to you, and you won’t lend to him. He will be the head, and you will be the tail.
45 All these curses will come on you, and will pursue you and overtake you, until you are destroyed, because you didn’t listen to Yahweh your God’s voice, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded you. 46 They will be for a sign and for a wonder to you and to your offspring forever. 47 Because you didn’t serve Yahweh your God with joyfulness and with gladness of heart, by reason of the abundance of all things; 48 therefore you will serve your enemies whom Yahweh sends against you, in hunger, in thirst, in nakedness, and in lack of all things. He will put an iron yoke on your neck until he has destroyed you. 49 Yahweh will bring a nation against you from far away, from the end of the earth, as the eagle flies: a nation whose language you will not understand, 50 a nation of fierce facial expressions, that doesn’t respect the elderly, nor show favor to the young. 51 They will eat the fruit of your livestock and the fruit of your ground, until you are destroyed. They also won’t leave you grain, new wine, oil, the increase of your livestock, or the young of your flock, until they have caused you to perish. 52 They will besiege you in all your gates until your high and fortified walls in which you trusted come down throughout all your land. They will besiege you in all your gates throughout all your land which Yahweh your God has given you. 53 You will eat the fruit of your own body, the flesh of your sons and of your daughters, whom Yahweh your God has given you, in the siege and in the distress with which your enemies will distress you. 54 The man who is tender among you, and very delicate, his eye will be evil toward his brother, toward the wife whom he loves, and toward the remnant of his children whom he has remaining, 55 so that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he will eat, because he has nothing left to him, in the siege and in the distress with which your enemy will distress you in all your gates. 56 The tender and delicate woman among you, who would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye will be evil toward the husband that she loves, toward her son, toward her daughter, 57 toward her young one who comes out from between her feet, and toward her children whom she bears; for she will eat them secretly for lack of all things in the siege and in the distress with which your enemy will distress you in your gates. 58 If you will not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and fearful name, YAHWEH your God, 59 then Yahweh will make your plagues and the plagues of your offspring fearful, even great plagues, and of long duration, and severe sicknesses, and of long duration. 60 He will bring on you again all the diseases of Egypt, which you were afraid of; and they will cling to you. 61 Also every sickness and every plague which is not written in the book of this law, Yahweh will bring them on you until you are destroyed. 62 You will be left few in number, even though you were as the stars of the sky for multitude, because you didn’t listen to Yahweh your God’s voice. 63 It will happen that as Yahweh rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you, so Yahweh will rejoice over you to cause you to perish and to destroy you. You will be plucked from the land that you are going in to possess. 64 Yahweh will scatter you among all peoples, from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth. There you will serve other gods which you have not known, you nor your fathers, even wood and stone. 65 Among these nations you will find no ease, and there will be no rest for the sole of your foot; but Yahweh will give you there a trembling heart, failing of eyes, and pining of soul. 66 Your life will hang in doubt before you. You will be afraid night and day, and will have no assurance of your life. 67 In the morning you will say, "I wish it were evening!" and at evening you will say, "I wish it were morning!" for the fear of your heart which you will fear, and for the sights which your eyes will see. 68 Yahweh will bring you into Egypt again with ships, by the way of which I told you that you would never see it again. There you will offer yourselves to your enemies for male and female slaves, and nobody will buy you.

Ngā Manaakitanga mō te Whakarongo
1 Ā tēnei ake, ki te āta whakarongo koe ki te reo o Ihowā, o tōu Atua ki te mau ki te mahi i āna whakahau katoa e whakahau atu nei ahau i tēnei rā ki a koe, nā, ka whakanui a Ihowā, tōu Atua, i a koe ki runga ake i ngā iwi katoa o te whenua. 2 Ā, ka tae mai ēnei manaaki katoa ki a koe, ka hopu i a koe, ki te whakarongo koe ki te reo o Ihowā, o tōu Atua:
3 Ka manaakitia koe i roto i te pā, ka manaakitia hoki koe i te māra.
4 Ka manaakitia ngā hua o tōu kōpū, me ngā hua o tōu oneone, me ngā hua o āu kararehe, ngā uri o āu kau, me ngā kūao o āu hipi.
5 Ka manaakitia tāu kete me tāu pokepokenga parāoa.
6 Ka manaakitia koe ina haere mai, ka manaakitia hoki ina haere atu.
7 Ka meinga e Ihowā ōu hoariri e whakatika ana ki a koe kia tukitukia i tōu aroaro. Kotahi anō te ara e puta mai ai rātou ki a koe, ā, e whitu ngā ara e rere atu ai rātou i tōu aroaro.
8 Ka whakahau a Ihowā i te manaaki mōu, mō ōu whare taonga, mō ngā mea katoa hoki e toro atu ai tōu ringa; ā, ka manaaki ia i a koe ki te whenua ka hōmai nei e Ihowā, e tōu Atua, ki a koe.
9 Ka whakatūturutia koe e Ihowā hei iwi tapu māna, ka pērātia me tāna i oati ai ki a koe; ki te mau koe ki ngā whakahau a Ihowā, a tōu Atua, ki te haere i āna huarahi. 10 Ā, ka kite ngā iwi katoa o te whenua kua huaina iho te ingoa o Ihowā ki a koe; ā, ka wehi i a koe. 11 Ā, ka whakanui rawa a Ihowā i te pai mōu, ka whai hua hoki tōu kōpū, ka whai hua āu kararehe, ka whai hua tōu oneone, i te whenua i oati ai a Ihowā ki ōu mātua kia hoatu ki a koe.
12 Ka whakatuwheratia e Ihowā ki a koe tāna taonga pai, te rangi hei hōmai i te ua ki tōu whenua i tōna pō anō, hei manaaki hoki i ngā mahi katoa a tōu ringa; ā, ka tuku moni atu koe ki ngā iwi maha, e kore anō koe e tango i te moni tārewa. 13 Ā, ka meinga koe e Ihowā hei upoko, e kore hoki e waiho hei hiku; ki runga anake koe, ā, kāhore ki raro; ki te whakarongo koe ki ngā whakahau a Ihowā, a tōu Atua, e whakahau atu nei ahau i tēnei rā ki a koe, ā, ka puritia e koe, ka mahia. 14 Ki te kore e peka atu i tētahi o ngā kupu e whakahau nei ahau i tēnei rā ki a koe, ki matau rānei, ki mauī rānei, whai ai ki ngā atua kē, mahi ai ki a rātou.
He Whiu mō te Mahi Tutū
15 Engari, ki te kore koe e whakarongo ki te reo o Ihowā, o tōu Atua, e mau hoki ki te mahi i āna whakahau katoa, i āna tikanga, e whakahau atu nei ahau i tēnei rā ki a koe; nā, ka tae mai ki a koe, ka hopu i a koe, ēnei kanga katoa:
16 Ka kangā koe i te pā, ka kangā koe i te māra.
17 Ka kangā tāu kete me tāu pokepokenga parāoa.
18 Ka kangā te hua o tōu kōpū, me te hua o tōu oneone, te uri o āu kau, me ngā kūao o āu hipi.
19 Ka kangā koe i tōu haerenga mai, ka kangā hoki koe i tōu haerenga atu.
20 Ka tukua e Ihowā ki a koe te kanga, te tuatea me te whakatūpehupehu, ki ngā mea katoa e toro atu ai tōu ringa ki te mahi, kia ngaro rā anō koe, kia hohoro rā anō te mate atu; mō te kino o āu mahi, i whakarere nei koe i ahau. 21 Ka meinga e Ihowā te mate urutā kia piri tonu ki a koe, kia whakapotoa atu rā anō koe e ia i runga i te whenua e haere atu nā koe ki reira ki te tango. 22 Ka whiua koe e Ihowā ki te kohi, ki te kirikā, ki te mumura, ki te toronga nui, ki te hoari, ki te tauraki, te hōpurupuru; ā, ka whai ēnā i a koe ā ngaro noa koe. 23 Ā, ka whakaparāhi tōu rangi i runga i tōu māhunga, ka whakarino hoki te whenua i raro i a koe. 24 Ka hōmai e Ihowā hei ua mō tōu whenua te puehu me te nehu; ka rere iho taua mea i te rangi ki runga ki a koe, kia ngaro rā anō koe.
25 Ka mea a Ihowā kia patua koe ki te aroaro, o ōu hoariri. Kotahi anō te ara e haere atu ai koe ki a ia, ā, e whitu ngā ara e rere ai koe i tōna aroaro; ā, ka makamakaia haeretia koe i waenganui o ngā rangatiratanga katoa o te whenua. 26 Ā, ka ai tōu tinana mate hei kai mā ngā manu katoa o te rangi, mā ngā kararehe hoki o te whenua, ā, kāhore he tangata hei whakawehi atu i a rātou. 27 Ka patu a Ihowā i a koe ki te tūwhenua o Īhipa, ki ngā pukupuku, ki te pāpaka, ki te waihakihaki hoki, e kore nei koe e taea te rongoā. 28 Ka patu a Ihowā i a koe ki te pōrangi, ki te matapō, ki te ngākau pōhēhē; 29 ā, ka whāwhā koe i te tino awatea, ka pērā me te tangata matapō e whāwhā nei i roto i te pōuri, ā, e kore e whiwhi i ōu huarahi; ā, ka waiho koe hei tūkinotanga kautanga, hei murunga i ngā rā katoa, ā, kāhore he kaiwhakaora mōu.
30 Ka taumau koe i te wahine, ā, he tangata kē māna ia e moe; ka mahi koe i te whare, ā, e kore koe e noho ki roto; ka whakatō koe i te māra wāina, ā, e kore koe e kai i ōna hua. 31 Ka patua tāu kau i mua i ōu kanohi, ā, e kore koe e kai i tētahi wāhi ōna; ko tāu kāihe ka pāhuatia atu i tōu aroaro, e kore e whakahokia ki a koe. Ko āu hipi ka hoatu mā ōu hoariri, ā, kāhore ōu tāngata hei whakaora i a koe. 32 Ko āu tama me āu tamāhine ka hoatu ki te iwi kē, ā, ka matawaia ōu kanohi i te tirohanga ki a rātou, ā pau noa te rā; kāhore hoki he kaha i tōu ringa. 33 Ko ngā hua o tōu oneone me tōu uauatanga katoa, ka kainga e tētahi iwi kīhai nei i mōhiotia e koe; ā, hei tūkinotanga kautanga koe, hei kurunga i ngā rā katoa; 34 ā, ka haurangi koe i te kitenga a ōu kanohi e kite ai koe. 35 Ka patu a Ihowā i a koe, i ngā turi, i ngā waewae, ki te tūwhenua kino e kore e taea te rongoā, i te kapu o tōu waewae, ā tae noa ki tōu tumuaki.
36 Ka whakaheke atu a Ihowā i a koe, i tōu kīngi hoki e meatia e koe hei kīngi mōu, ki te iwi kīhai nei koe i mōhio, koutou ko ōu mātua; ā, ka mahi koe i reira ki ngā atua kē, ki te rākau, ki te kōhatu. 37 Ā, ka waiho koe hei mīharotanga, hei whakatauki, hei taunu i roto i ngā iwi katoa e kawea atu ai koe e Ihowā ki reira.
38 He nui te purapura e kawea atu e koe ki te māra, ā, he iti tāu e kohikohi mai ai; ka pau hoki i te māwhitiwhiti. 39 Ka whakatōkia e koe, ka mahia ngā māra wāina, ko te wāina ia e kore e inumia e koe, e kore anō e whakia ngā hua; ka kainga hoki e te huhu. 40 Ka whai ōriwa koe puta noa i ōu rohe katoa, ko te hinu ia e kore e whakawahia e koe; nō te mea ka horo ngā hua o āu ōriwa. 41 Ka whānau he tama māu, he tamāhine, otiia e kore e waiho māu; ka riro hoki rātou ki te herehere. 42 Ko āu rākau katoa me ngā hua o tōu oneone ka pau i te māwhitiwhiti.
43 Ko te manene i roto i a koe ka kake ake ki runga i a koe, ki runga noa atu; ko koe ia ka heke iho ki raro, ā, ki raro noa iho. 44 Ko ia hei hōmai i te moni tārewa ki a koe, ko koe ia e kore e hoatu i te mea tārewa ki a ia; ko ia hei pane, ko koe hei hiku.
45 Ā, ka tae ēnei kanga ki a koe, ka whai i a koe, ka hopu anō i a koe, kia hunā rā anō koe; mōu kīhai i whakarongo ki te reo o Ihowā, o tōu Atua, kīhai i mau ki āna whakahau, ki āna tikanga i whakahaua e ia ki a koe. 46 Ā, ka piri ēnā ki a koe hei tohu, hei mīharotanga, ki ōu uri anō hoki ā ake ake. 47 Mōu kīhai i mahi ki a Ihowā, ki tōu Atua, i runga i te koa, me te ngākau hari mō te huanga o ngā mea katoa. 48 Koia ka mahi koe ki ōu hoariri, e tukua mai e Ihowā ki a koe, i runga i te matekai, i te matewai me te kākahukore, me te kore hoki o ngā mea katoa; ā, ka hoatu e ia he ioka rino ki tōu kakī ā ngaro noa koe i a ia.
49 Ka hāpainga mai e Ihowā ki a koe he iwi nō tawhiti, nō te pito o te whenua, ānō he ēkara e rere ana; he iwi e kore e mōhiotia e koe tōna reo; 50 he iwi mata hīnana, e kore e whakapai ki te kanohi o te koroheke, e kore hoki e tohu i te taitamariki. 51 Ā, ka kainga e ia ngā hua o āu kararehe, te hua hoki o tōu oneone, ā, hunā noatia koe; ā, e kore e toe i a ia he wīti māu, he wāina, he hinu rānei, ngā uri rānei o āu kau, me ngā kuao o āu hipi, ā, meinga rā anō koe e ia kia ngaro. 52 Ā, ka whakapaea koe e ia i roto i ōu kūwaha katoa, ā, whenuku noa ōu taiepa teitei, kaha hoki, i whakamanamana ai koe, ā puta noa i tōu whenua; ā, ka whakapae ia i a koe i roto i ōu kūwaha katoa, puta noa i tōu whenua, i hōmai nei e Ihowā, e tōu Atua, ki a koe.
53 Ā, ka kai koe i te hua o tōu kōpū, i te kikokiko o āu tama, o āu tamāhine, e hōmai e Ihowā, e tōu Atua, ki a koe; i te whakapaenga, i te kōpaninga hoki, e kōpania ai koe e ōu hoariri. 54 Ko te tangata whakatarapī i roto i a koutou, whakaahu noa iho, ka hē tōna kanohi ki tōna teina, ki te wahine hoki o tōna uma, ā, ki te mōrehu o āna tamariki e toe ana ki a ia; 55 e kore ai e hoatu e ia ki tētahi o rātou tētahi wāhi o te kikokiko o āna tamariki, e kainga e ia, nō te mea kāhore he mea e toe ana ki a ia; i te whakapaenga, i te kōpaninga, e kōpania ai koe e ōu hoariri i roto i ōu kūwaha katoa. 56 Ko te wahine whakatarapī i roto i a koutou, whakaahu noa iho, e kore nei e whakamātau atu ki te whakatū i te kapu o tōna waewae ki te whenua, i te whakatarapī hoki, i te whakaahu, ka kino tōna kanohi ki te tāne o tōna uma, ki tāna tama, ki tāna tamāhine hoki; 57 ki tāna pōtiki hoki e puta mai i waenganui o ōna waewae, ki āna tamariki hoki e whānau i roto i a ia. Ka kainga pukutia hoki e ia i te kore o ngā mea katoa; i te whakapaenga, i te kōpaninga, e kōpania ai koe e ōu hoariri i roto i ōu kūwaha.
58 Ki te kāhore koe e mahara kia mahia ngā kupu katoa o tēnei ture e tuhituhia nei ki tēnei pukapuka, kia wehi koe i tēnei ingoa whai korōria, ingoa whakamataku, i a IHOWĀ, I TŌU ATUA. 59 Nā, ka meinga e Ihowā ōu whiunga kia mīharotia, me ngā whiunga o ōu uri, he whiunga nunui, kawenga roa hoki, me ngā mate ngau kino, kawenga roa hoki. 60 Ā, ka whakapāngia anō e ia ki a koe ngā mate katoa o Īhipa, i wehi rā koe; ā, ka piri ki a koe. 61 Me ngā mate katoa me ngā whiu katoa, kāhore nei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o tēnei ture, ka whakapāngia e Ihowā ki a koe, ā, hunā noatia koe. 62 Ā, ka mahue iho koutou he hunga torutoru, koutou i rite nei ki ngā whetū o te rangi te tini; nō te mea kīhai koe i whakarongo ki te reo o Ihowā, o tōu Atua.
63 Nā, ka rite ki te koa o Ihowā i tāna whakawhiwhinga i a koutou ki te pai, i tāna whakanuinga hoki i a koutou; ka pēnā anō hoki te koa o Ihowā ki te mea i a koutou kia ngaro, ki te huna rawa atu i a koutou; ā, ka hūtia atu koutou i te whenua e haere atu nei koutou ki reira ki te tango. 64 Ā, ka whakamararatia koe e Ihowā ki waenga i ngā iwi katoa, i tētahi pito o te whenua tae noa atu ki tētahi pito o te whenua; ā, ka mahi koe i reira ki ngā atua kē, kāhore nei koe i mōhio, koutou tahi ko ōu mātua, ki te rākau, ki te kōhatu. 65 Ā, e kore e tā tōu manawa i roto i ēnā iwi, kāhore hoki he okiokinga mō te kapu o tōu waewae. Engari, ka hōmai e Ihowā ki a koe i reira he manawa hēhē, he kanohi haumaruru, me te ngākau tuatea. 66 Ā, ka tārewa noa tōu ora i tōu aroaro; ka wehi koe i te pō, i te ao, ā, kāhore he tūturutanga mō tōu ora. 67 I te ata ka mea koe, "Auē, te ahiahi noa!" – ā, i te ahiahi ka mea koe, "Auē, te awatea noa!" I te pāwera hoki o tōu ngākau e pāwera ai koe, i te kitenga hoki a ōu kanohi e kite ai koe. 68 Ā, ka whakahoki a Ihowā i a koe ki Īhipa i runga kaipuke, nā te huarahi i kōrero rā ahau ki a koe, E kore koe e kite i reira ā muri ake nei; ā, ka hoko koutou i a koutou i reira ki ō koutou hoariri hei pononga tāne, hei pononga wāhine, ā, kāhore he tangata hei hoko.
