Kanawailua 4
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1A NO hoi, e hoolohe, e ka Iseraela, i na kanawai a me na olelo kupaa a'u e ao aku nei ia oukou, e malama, i ola oukou, i komo hoi oukou, a noho ma ka aina a Iehova ke Akua o ko oukou poe kupuna e haawi mai ai no oukou.
1And now, O Israel, hearken unto the statutes and unto the ordinances, which I teach you, to do them; that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the LORD, the God of your fathers, giveth you.
2Mai hoopili mai oukou i kekahi olelo me ka mea a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oukou, aole hoi oukou e hooemi iho ia, i malama ai oukou i na kauoha a Iehova ko oukou Akua a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oukou.
2Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
3Ua ike ko oukou maka i ka mea a Iehova i hana mai ai no Baala-peora; no ka mea, o na kanaka a pau i hahai mamuli o Baala-peora, na Iehova kou Akua lakou i luku aku mai o oukou aku.
3Your eyes have seen what the LORD did in Baal-peor; for all the men that followed the Baal of Peor, the LORD thy God hath destroyed them from the midst of thee.
4Aka, o oukou, ka poe i pili aku ia Iehova ko oukou Akua, ke ola nei no oukou a pau i keia la.
4But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God are alive every one of you this day.
5Aia hoi, ua ao aku au ia oukou i na kanawai a me na olelo kupaa, e like me ka Iehova ko'u Akua i kauoha mai ai ia'u, e malama oukou pela ma ka aina a oukou e hele aku ai e noho.
5Behold, I have taught you statutes and ordinances, even as the LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the midst of the land whither ye go in to possess it.
6E malama hoi oukou, a e hana aku; no ka mea, o ko oukou naauao keia, a me ko oukou ike imua o na lahuikanaka, ka poe e lohe i keia mau kanawai a pau, a e i ae lakou, He oiaio, o keia lahuikanaka nui, he poe kanaka naauao a me ka ike.
6Observe therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples, that, when they hear all these statutes, shall say: 'Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.'
7No ka mea, owai la ka lahuikanaka nui, ia lakou ke Akua e hookokoke ana ia lakou, e like me Iehova ko kakou Akua, ma na mea a pau a kakou i kahea aku ai ia ia?
7For what great nation is there, that hath God so nigh unto them, as the LORD our God is whensoever we call upon Him?
8A owai hoi ka lahuikanaka nui, ia ia na kanawai, a me na olelo kupaa ma ka pono e like me keia kanawai a pau a'u e waiho nei imua o oukou i keia la.
8And what great nation is there, that hath statutes and ordinances so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?
9E makaala ia oe iho, a e malama nui hoi i kou naau, o hoopoina auanei oe i na mea a kou maka i ike ai, a o nalowale auanei ia mea i kou naau i na la a pau o kou ola ana; aka, e ao aku ia mau mea i kau mau keiki, a me kau mau moopuna;
9Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes saw, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life; but make them known unto thy children and thy children's children;
10I ka la au i ku ai imua o Iehova kou Akua ma Horeba, i ka Iehova olelo ana mai ia'u, E houluulu oe i na kanaka imua o'u, a e ao aku au ia lakou e hoolohe i ka'u mau olelo, i aoia'i lakou e makau ia'u i na la a pau o ko lakou noho ana ma ka honua, a i ao aku ai lakou i ka lakou poe keiki.
10the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me: 'Assemble Me the people, and I will make them hear My words that they may learn to fear Me all the days that they live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children.'
11Hele kokoke mai oukou, a ku ae la malalo o ka mauna; a ua wela ka mauna i ke alii, a iwaena o ka lani me ka poeleele, me ke ao, a me ka pouli nui.
11And ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire unto the heart of heaven, with darkness, cloud, and thick darkness.
12A olelo mai o Iehova ia oukou maiwaena mai o ke ahi: a lohe oukou i ka leo o na olelo, aole nae oukou i ike aku i ke ano, o ka leo wale no.
12And the LORD spoke unto you out of the midst of the fire; ye heard the voice of words, but ye saw no form; only a voice.
13Hai mai la no oia ia oukou i ka berita ana i kauoha mai ai ia oukou e malama, oia na kanawai he umi; a kakau iho la no oia ia mau mea ma na papapohaku elua,
13And He declared unto you His covenant, which He commanded you to perform, even the ten words; and He wrote them upon two tables of stone.
14A kauoha mai o Iehova ia'u i kela manawa e ao aku ia oukou i na kanawai a me na olelo kupaa, e malama oukou ia mau mea ma ka aina a oukou e hele ai a noho.
14And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and ordinances, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it.
15E malama nui oukou ia oukou iho; no ka mea, aole oukou i ike i kekahi ano kii i ka la a Iehova i olelo mai ai ia oukou ma Horeba mailoko mai o ke ahi;
15Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves — for ye saw no manner of form on the day that the LORD spoke unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire —
16O hana hewa auanei, a hana aku oukou i kii kalaiia no oukou, ma ka like ana me kekahi mea, o ke kane, a o ka wahine paha,
16lest ye deal corruptly, and make you a graven image, even the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
17Ma ka like ana me kekahi holoholona ma ka honua, ma ka like ana me kekahi manu e lele ana i ke ao;
17the likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the heaven,
18Ma ka like ana me kekahi mea e kolo ana ma ka honua, ma ka like ana me kekahi ia maloko o ka wai malalo ae o ka honua:
18the likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water under the earth;
19A o leha ae auanei kou maka ma ka lani, a ike aku oe i ka la, a me ka mahina, a me na hoku, i na mea a pau o ka lani, a e koiia oe e hoomana aku ia mau mea, a e malama ia lakou, i na mea a Iehova kou Akua i hana'i no na lahuikanaka a pau malalo ae o ka lani.
19and lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun and the moon and the stars, even all the host of heaven, thou be drawn away and worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God hath allotted unto all the peoples under the whole heaven.
20Aka, ua lawe mai o Iehova ia oukou, a ua alakai hoi ia oukou mailoko mai o ke kapuahihao, mai Aigupita mai, e lilo oukou i poe kanaka hooilina nona, e like me oukou i keia la.
20But you hath the LORD taken and brought forth out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be unto Him a people of inheritance, as ye are this day.
21A huhu mai o Iehova ia'u no oukou, a hoohiki iho, aole au e hele ma kela kapa o Ioredane, aole hoi au e komo iloko o kela aina maikai a Iehova kou Akua i hooili mai ai no oukou:
21Now the LORD was angered with me for your sakes, and swore that I should not go over the Jordan, and that I should not go in unto that good land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance;
22No ka mea, e make no wau ma keia aina, aole au e hele ma kela kapa o Ioredane: aka, e hele no oukou ma kela aoao, a e lilo kela aina maikai no oukou.
22but I must die in this land, I must not go over the Jordan; but ye are to go over, and possess that good land.
23E malama pono ia oukou iho, o poina ia oukou ka berita a Iehova i hana mai ai me oukou, a hana oukou i kii kalaiia no oukou, ma ka like ana me kekahi mea a Iehova kou Akua i papa mai ai ia oe.
23Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the LORD your God, which He made with you, and make you a graven image, even the likeness of any thing which the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee.
24No ka mea, o Iehova kou Akua, he ahi ia e hoopau ana, he Akua lili.
24For the LORD thy God is a devouring fire, a jealous God.
25A loaa ia oukou na keiki a me na mamo, a loihi ko oukou noho ana ma ka aina, a e hana hewa oukou, a e hana oukou i kii kalaiia, ma ke ano o kekahi mea, a hana ino hoi imua o na maka o Iehova, e hoonaukiuki ia ia;
25When thou shalt beget children, and children's children, and ye shall have been long in the land, and shall deal corruptly, and make a graven image, even the form of any thing, and shall do that which is evil in the sight of the LORD thy God, to provoke Him;
26Ke hai aku nei au i keia la, he ike maka ka lani a me ka honua ia oukou, e make koke ana oukou, mai ka aina aku a oukou e hele aku ma kela kapa o Ioredane e noho ai; aole e noho loihi oukou malaila, aka, e luku loa ia aku oukou.
26I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over the Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed.
27A na Iehova oukou e hoopuehu aku iwaena o na lahuikanaka, a e waihoia oukou, he poe uuku iwaena o ko na aina e, kahi a Iehova e kai aku ai ia oukou.
27And the LORD shall scatter you among the peoples, and ye shall be left few in number among the nations, whither the LORD shall lead you away.
28A malaila oukou e malama ai i na akua i hanaia e na lima o kanaka, he laau, he pohaku, ka mea ike ole aole hoi e lohe, aole hoi e ai, aole hoi e honi.
28And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
29Aka, ina ma ia wahi oe e imi ai ia Iehova kou Akua, e loaa ia oe, ke imi oe ia ia me kou naau a pau, a me kou uhane a pau.
29But from thence ye will seek the LORD thy God; and thou shalt find Him, if thou search after Him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
30A loaa ia oe ka popilikia, a hiki mai keia mau mea a pau maluna ou i na la mahope, a i huli mai oe ia Iehova kou Akua, a hoolohe i kona leo,
30In thy distress, when all these things are come upon thee, in the end of days, thou wilt return to the LORD thy God, and hearken unto His voice;
31(No ka mea, o Iehova kou Akua, he Akua aloha,) aole ia e haalele mai ia oe, aole e luku mai ia oe, aole hoi ia e hoopoina i ka berita o kou mau kupuna ana i hoohiki ai ia lakou.
31for the LORD thy God is a merciful God; He will not fail thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which He swore unto them.
32Ano e ninau aku oe i na la i hala mahope, i ka wa mamua ou, a mai ka manawa mai a ke Akua i hana'i ke kanaka ma ka honua, a mai kela aoao o ka lani a hiki i keia aoao o ka lani, auhea ae nei ka mea like me keia mea nui, auhea ka mea i loheia e like ai me ia?
32For ask now of the days past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and from the one end of heaven unto the other, whether there hath been any such thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it?
33Owai la ka poe kanaka i lohe i ka leo o ke Akua e olelo ana, mailoko mai o ke ahi, e like me kou lohe ana, a ola?
33Did ever a people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?
34Ua hoao anei ke Akua e hele a e lawe i lahuikanaka nona maiwaena mai o kekahi lahuikanaka, ma na hoao ana, a ma na hoailona, a ma na mea kupanaha, a ma ke kaua, a ma ka lima ikaika, a ma ka lima kakauha, a ma na mea weliweli nui, e like me na mea a pau a Iehova ko oukou Akua i hana mai ai no oukou ma Aigupita imua o kou maka?
34Or hath God assayed to go and take Him a nation from the midst of another nation, by trials, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by an outstretched arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before thine eyes?
35Ua hoikeia ia mea ia oe, i ike ai oe, o Iehova, oia ke Akua, aohe mea e ae, oia wale no.
35Unto thee it was shown, that thou mightiest know that the LORD, He is God; there is none else beside Him.
36Oia no ka mea i lohe ai oe i kona leo mai ka lani mai, i ao ai oia ia oe; a ma ka honua, i hoike mai ia ia oe i kona ahi nui; a ua lohe oe i kana mau huaolelo mailoko mai o ke ahi.
36Out of heaven He made thee to hear His voice, that He might instruct thee; and upon earth He made thee to see His great fire; and thou didst hear His words out of the midst of the fire.
37A no kona aloha i na kupuna ou, oia ka mea i wae mai ai ia i ka lakou poe mamo mahope o lakou, a lawe mai oia ia oe imua ona me kona mana nui mai Aigupita mai;
37And because He loved thy fathers, and chose their seed after them, and brought thee out with His presence, with His great power, out of Egypt,
38E hookuke aku i na lahuikanaka mai kou alo aku, i ka poe ua oi aku ko lakou nui, a me ko lakou ikaika i kou, e hookomo ia oe, a e hoolilo i ko lakou aina nou, e like me ia i keia la.
38to drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier than thou, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an inheritance, as it is this day;
39E ike hoi oe i keia la, a e noonoo maloko o kou naau, o Iehova, oia ke Akua ma ka lani iluna, a ma ka honua ilalo, aole e ae.
39know this day, and lay it to thy heart, that the LORD, He is God in heaven above and upon the earth beneath; there is none else.
40E malama hoi oe i kona mau kanawai a me kana mau kauoha a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oe i keia la, i pomaikai ai oe, a me kau mau keiki mahope ou, a i hooloihi ai oe i na la ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua i haawi mai ai nou i na la a pau loa.
40And thou shalt keep His statutes, and His commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days upon the land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee, for ever.
41Alaila hookaawale ae la o Mose i na kulanakauhale ekolu ma keia aoao o Ioredane ma ka hiki ana o ka la;
41Then Moses separated three cities beyond the Jordan toward the sunrising;
42I holo ai ka pepehi kanaka malaila, ka mea i pepehi i kona hoalauna me ka ike ole, aole i inaina aku ia ia mamua; a i kona holo ana i kekahi o keia mau kulanakauhale, e ola ia:
42that the manslayer might flee thither, that slayeth his neighbour unawares, and hated him not in time past; and that fleeing unto one of these cities he might live:
43O Bezera ma ka waonahele i ka aina papu o ka Reubena; a o Ramota ma Gileada o ka Gada; a o Golana ma Basana o ka Manase.
43Bezer in the wilderness, in the table-land, for the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, for the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan, for the Manassites.
44A o keia ke kanawai a Mose i waiho ai imua o na mamo a Iseraela:
44And this is the law which Moses set before the children of Israel;
45Oia na kauoha a me na kanawai, a me na olelo kupaa a Mose i olelo mai ai i na mamo a Iseraela, mahope o ka lakou hele ana mai Aigupita mai;
45these are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which Moses spoke unto the children of Israel, when they came forth out of Egypt;
46Ma keia aoao o Ioredane, ma ke awawa e ku pono ana i Betepeora, i ka aina o Sihona, ke alii o ka Amora ka mea i noho ma Hesebona, ka mea a Mose a me na mamo a Iseraela i pepehi ai, mahope o ka puka ana, mai Aigupita mai:
46beyond the Jordan, in the valley over against Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, when they came forth out of Egypt;
47A lilo kona aina ia lakou, a me ka aina o Oga, ke alii o Basana, na'lii elua o ka Amora, ma keia aoao o Ioredane ma ka hiki ana o ka la:
47and they took his land in possession, and the land of Og king of Bashan, the two kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan toward the sunrising;
48Mai Aroera, ma ke kae o ke kahawai o Arenona, a i ka mauna o Ziona, oia hoi o Heremona,
48from Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of Arnon, even unto mount Sion — the same is Hermon —
49A o ka papu a pau ma keia aoao o Ioredane ma ka hikina, a hiki i ke kai o ka papu, o kahi haahaa ma ke kumu o Pisega,
49and all the Arabah beyond the Jordan eastward, even unto the sea of the Arabah, under the slopes of Pisgah.
