Leviticus 17

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,

Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and say unto them; This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, saying,

Korero ki a Arona, ki ana tama, ki nga tama katoa a Iharaira, mea atu ki a ratou, Ko te mea tenei i whakahau ai a Ihowa, i mea ai,

What man soever there be of the house of Israel, that killeth an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or that killeth it out of the camp,

Ki te patua e tetahi tangata o te whare o Iharaira he kau, he reme, he koati ranei, i roto i te puni, ki te patua ranei e ia ki waho o te puni,

And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer an offering unto the LORD before the tabernacle of the LORD; blood shall be imputed unto that man; he hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people:

A e kore e kawea ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, kia whakaherea he whakahere ki a Ihowa ki mua i te tapenakara o Ihowa; ka whakairia he toto ki taua tangata; kua whakaheke toto ia; a ka hatepea atu taua tangata i roto i tona iw i:

To the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they offer in the open field, even that they may bring them unto the LORD, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest, and offer them for peace offerings unto the LORD.

He mea kia kawea ai e nga tama a Iharaira a ratou patunga e whakaherea ana e ratou i te mata o te parae, kia kawea ai hoki ki a Ihowa, ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakatoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, ki te tohunga, ka patu ai hei whakahere mo te pai ki a Ihowa.

And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and burn the fat for a sweet savour unto the LORD.

A ka tauhiuhia te toto e te tohunga ki te aata a Ihowa i te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, me tahu ano e ia te ngako hei kakara reka ki a Ihowa.

And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations.

A ka mutu a ratou patunga tapu ki nga rewera i whaia nei e ratou, puremu atu ai. Hei tikanga pumau tenei ki a ratou i o ratou whakatupuranga.

And thou shalt say unto them, Whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers which sojourn among you, that offereth a burnt offering or sacrifice,

Me ki atu ano ki a ratou, Ki te whakaherea e tetahi tangata o te whare o Iharaira, o nga manene ranei i roto i a koutou, tetahi tahunga tinana, patunga tapu ranei,

And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer it unto the LORD; even that man shall be cut off from among his people.

A e kore e kawea ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, whakahere ai ki a Ihowa; ina, ka hatepea atu taua tangata i roto i tona iwi.

And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people.

Ki te kainga hoki tetahi toto e tetahi tangata o te whare o Iharaira, o nga manene ranei i roto i a koutou; ka u atu toku mata ki taua wairua i kainga ai te toto, a ka hatepea atu e ahau i roto i tona iwi.

For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.

Kei roto hoki i te toto te oranga o te kikokiko; kua hoatu ano e ahau ki a koutou mo runga i te aata, hei whakamarie mo o koutou wairua: ko te toto hoki, na tona ora, te mea hei whakamarie.

Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood.

Koia ahau i mea ai ki nga tama a Iharaira, Kaua tetahi o koutou e kai toto, kaua ano hoki te manene i roto i a koutou e kai toto.

And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust.

Ki te whai hoki tetahi o nga tama a Iharaira, o nga manene ranei i roto i a koutou, a ka mau tetahi kirehe, tetahi manu ranei e tika ana kia kainga: me riringi ona toto, ka tanu ai ki te puehu.

For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.

No te mea ko te toto o te kikokiko e kotahi katoa ana me te ora o te kikokiko: koia ahau i mea ai ki nga tama a Iharaira, Kaua rawa e kainga te toto o tetahi kikokiko: ko te toto hoki te ora o nga kikokiko katoa: ki te kainga e tetahi, ka hatepe a atu.

And every soul that eateth that which died of itself, or that which was torn with beasts, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even: then shall he be clean.

Ki te kainga hoki e tetahi te mea i mate maori, te mea ranei i haea e te kirehe, ahakoa tangata whenua, iwi ke ranei, me horoi ona kakahu, me ia ano me horoi ki te wai, ka poke hoki a ahiahi noa: katahi ka kore te poke.

But if he wash them not, nor bathe his flesh; then he shall bear his iniquity.

A ki te kahore e horoia e ia, ki te kahore hoki e horoia tona tinana, na ka waha e ia tona kino.
