Deuteronomy 11

Na reira me aroha koe ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, kia mau ki tana ako, ki ana tikanga, ki tana i whakarite ai, me ana whakahau, i nga ra katoa.
Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, alway.
Kia mohio hoki koutou i tenei ra: kahore ano ia ahau e korero ana ki a koutou tamariki, kahore hoki ratou i mohio, kahore ano hoki i kite i te whakawhiu a Ihowa, a to koutou Atua, i tona nui, i tona ringa kaha, i tona takakau i maro ra,
And know ye this day: for I speak not with your children which have not known, and which have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his stretched out arm,
I ana merekara hoki, i ana mahi i meatia e ia i waenganui o Ihipa ki a Parao kingi o Ihipa, ki tona whenua katoa hoki;
And his miracles, and his acts, which he did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land;
I tana hoki i mea ai ki te ope o Ihipa, ki o ratou hoiho, ki a ratou hariata; i a ia i mea ra i nga wai o te Moana Whero kia huri ki runga ki a ratou i to ratou whainga mai i a koutou, a huna iho ratou e Ihowa a mohoa noa nei;
And what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how the LORD hath destroyed them unto this day;
I nga mea hoki i mea ai ia ki a koutou i te koraha, a tae noa mai koutou ki tenei wahi;
And what he did unto you in the wilderness, until ye came into this place;
I tana hoki i mea ai ki a Ratana raua ko Apirama, ki nga tama a Eriapa tama a Reupena; i te kowheratanga ake o te mangai o te whenua, a horomia ana ratou, me nga tangata o o ratou whare, me o ratou teneti hoki, me a ratou mea ora katoa, i waengan ui i a Iharaira katoa:
And what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben: how the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the substance that was in their possession, in the midst of all Israel:
Ko o koutou kanohi ia kua kite i nga mahi nunui katoa a Ihowa i mahi ai ia.
But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the LORD which he did.
Ae ra, kia mau ki nga whakahau katoa e whakahau atu nei ahau ki a koe i tenei ra, kia kaha ai koe, kia tae atu ai hoki, kia whiwhi ai ki te whenua e haere atu nei koutou ki reira ki te tango;
Therefore shall ye keep all the commandments which I command you this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the land, whither ye go to possess it;
Kia roa ai hoki o koutou ra ki te whenua i oati ai a Ihowa ki ou matua kia hoatu ki a ratou, ki o ratou uri, he whenua e rerengia ana e te waiu, e te honi.
And that ye may prolong your days in the land, which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land that floweth with milk and honey.
Ko te whenua hoki e haere atu nei koe ki reira ki te tango, ehara i te pera me te whenua o Ihipa, i mahue atu ra i a koe, e whakato ai koe i tau purapura, e whakamakuku ai hoki ki tou waewae, ano he kari otaota:
For the land, whither thou goest in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from whence ye came out, where thou sowedst thy seed, and wateredst it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs:
Engari he whenua pukepuke, he whenua raorao te whenua e haere atu nei koutou ki reira ki te tango, e inu ana hoki i te ua o te rangi hei wai;
But the land, whither ye go to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, and drinketh water of the rain of heaven:
He whenua e matapoporetia ana e Ihowa, e tou Atua: kei reira tonu nga kanohi o Ihowa, o tou Atua, no te timatanga o te tau taea noatia te mutunga o te tau.
A land which the LORD thy God careth for: the eyes of the LORD thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.
A ki te whakarongo marie koutou ki aku whakahau e whakahau atu nei ahau ki a koutou i tenei ra, kia aroha ki a Ihowa, ki to koutou Atua, kia whakapaua o koutou ngakau, o koutou wairua ki te mahi ki a ia,
And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
Na ka hoatu e ahau te ua mo to koutou whenua i tona po ano, te ua mataati me te ua o muri, a ka kohikohi koe i tau witi, i tau waina, i tau hinu.
That I will give you the rain of your land in his due season, the first rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest gather in thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil.
A ka hoatu e ahau te tarutaru ki ou parae, ma au kararehe, a ka kai koe, ka makona.
And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle, that thou mayest eat and be full.
Kia mahara ki a koutou, kei mamingatia o koutou ngakau, kei peka ke koutou, kei mahi ki nga atua ke, kei koropiko ki a ratou;
Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
A ka mura te riri o Ihowa ki a koutou, a ka tutakina e ia te rangi, e kore ake ai te ua, e kore ai hoki e tukua mai e te whenua ona hua; na ka hohoro koutou te mate atu i te whenua pai ka homai nei e Ihowa ki a koutou.
And then the LORD'S wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest ye perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD giveth you.
Engari rongoatia enei kupu aku ki roto ki o koutou ngakau, ki o koutou wairua; herea hoki hei tohu ki o koutou ringa, hei pare ano ki waenganui i o koutou kanohi.
Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.
Whakaakona atu hoki ki a koutou tamariki, korerotia ina noho i tou whare, ina haere koe i te huarahi, ina takoto, ina whakatika ranei.
And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
Tuhituhia ano hoki ki nga pou tatau o tou whare, ki ou tatau hoki;
And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates:
Kia tini ai ou ra, me nga ra o a koutou tamariki ki te whenua i oati ai a Ihowa ki ou matua kia hoatu ki a ratou, kia rite ai ki nga ra o te rangi i runga i te whenua.
That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.
Ki te ata pupuri hoki koutou i enei whakahau katoa e whakahau atu nei ahau ki a koutou kia mahia; ki te aroha ki a Ihowa, ki to koutou Atua, ki te haere hoki i ana huarahi, ki te awhi ki a ia;
For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;
Na ka peia atu e Ihowa enei iwi katoa i to koutou aroaro, a ka riro i a koutou nga iwi he nui ake, he kaha ake i a koutou.
Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.
Mo koutou nga wahi katoa e takahia e te kapu o o koutou waewae: kei te koraha, ke Repanona hoki, kei te awa, kei Uparati, a tae noa ki te moana ki te hauauru, nga rohe ki a koutou.
Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost sea shall your coast be.
E kore e tu te tangata ki to koutou aroaro: ka whakapangia hoki e Ihowa, e to koutou Atua, to koutou wehi, me to koutou tuiri ki te mata katoa o te whenua e takahia e koutou, ka rite ki tana i korero ai ki a koutou.
There shall no man be able to stand before you: for the LORD your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath said unto you.
Nana, ka hoatu e ahau ki to koutou aroaro i tenei ra te manaaki me te kanga:
Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse;
Te manaaki, ki te rongo koutou ki nga whakahau a Ihowa, a to koutou Atua, e whakahau atu nei ahau ki a koutou i tenei ra;
A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day:
Te kanga hoki, ki te kahore koutou e rongo ki nga whakahau a Ihowa, a to koutou Atua, a ka peka ke i te huarahi e kiia atu nei e ahau ki a koutou i tenei ra, ki te whai ki nga atua ke, kihai nei i mohiotia e koutou.
And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.
A tenei ake, a te wa e kawea ai koe e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki te whenua, ka haere atu nei koe ki reira ki te tango, na me hoatu e koe te manaaki ki runga ki Maunga Keritimi me te kanga ki runga ki Maunga Epara.
And it shall come to pass, when the LORD thy God hath brought thee in unto the land whither thou goest to possess it, that thou shalt put the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal.
Kahore ianei ena i tawahi o Horano, i te taha o te huarahi e to ai te ra, i te whenua o nga Kanaani e noho ana i te Arapaha i te ritenga atu o Kirikara, i te taha o nga oki i More?
Are they not on the other side Jordan, by the way where the sun goeth down, in the land of the Canaanites, which dwell in the champaign over against Gilgal, beside the plains of Moreh?
Ka whiti atu hoki koutou i Horano, ka haere ki te tango i te whenua e homai ana e Ihowa, e to koutou Atua, ki a koutou, a ka riro a reira i a koutou, a ka noho koutou ki reira.
For ye shall pass over Jordan to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God giveth you, and ye shall possess it, and dwell therein.
Na kia mahara ki te mahi i nga tikanga katoa, i nga whakaritenga e hoatu nei e ahau ki to koutou aroaro i tenei ra.
And ye shall observe to do all the statutes and judgments which I set before you this day.
