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

2 Whakahaua nga tama a Iharaira kia kawea e ratou ki a koe, he hinu oriwa, hei te mea parakore, hei te mea tuki, mo te whakamarama, kia ka tonu ai nga rama.

3 Me whakapai tonu tena e Arona ki waho o te arai o te whakaaturanga, i roto i te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, ki te aroaro o Ihowa, i te ahiahi a tae noa ki te ata: he tikanga pumau, ma o koutou whakatupuranga.

4 Me whakapai tonu e ia nga rama i runga i te turanga parakore o nga rama ki te aroaro o Ihowa.

5 Me tiki ano e koe he paraoa pai, ka tunu ai kia tekau ma rua nga keke: kia rua nga whakatekau o te epa ki te keke kotahi.

6 Ka whakatakoto ai e koe, kia rua nga rarangi, kia ono ki te rarangi kotahi, ki runga ki te tepu parakore i te aroaro o Ihowa.

7 Me maka ano hoki e koe he parakihe parakore ki runga i tetahi rarangi, i tetahi rarangi, kia ai taua mea i runga i te taro hei whakamahara, hei whakahere ahi ki a Ihowa.

8 Me whakararangi tonu e ia, i tenei hapati, i tenei hapati, ki te aroaro o Ihowa, he mea mo nga tama a Iharaira; hei kawenata pumau.

9 A ma Arona ratou ko ana tama tena; me kai e ratou ki te wahi tapu; he tino tapu hoki tena mana i roto i nga whakahere ahi a Ihowa; hei tikanga pumau.

10 A i haere atu i roto i nga tama a Iharaira tetahi tama a tetahi wahine o Iharaira, ko tona papa no Ihipa: na ka whawhai tenei tama a te wahine o Iharaira ki tetahi tangata o Iharaira i roto i te puni;

11 Na ka kohukohu te tama a te wahine o Iharaira i te ingoa o Ihowa, ka kanga hoki: a kawea ana ia e ratou ki a Mohi. A ko te ingoa o tona whaea ko Heromiti, he tamahine na Tipiri, no te iwi o Rana.

12 Na ka hoatu ia e ratou kia tiakina, ma te kupu hoki a Ihowa te tikanga ki a ratou.

13 Na ka korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi, ka mea,

14 Kawea te tangata i kanga ra ki waho o te puni; a, ko nga tangata katoa i rongo i a ia, me popoki o ratou ringa ki tona matenga, ka aki ai te whakaminenga katoa i a ia ki te kohatu.

15 Me korero ano e koe ki nga tama a Iharaira, me ki atu, Ki te kanga tetahi tangata i tona Atua, ka waha e ia tona hara.

16 A, ko te tangata e kohukohu i te ingoa o Ihowa, me tino whakamate ia; me tino aki ia e te whakaminenga ki te kohatu: ko te manene raua tahi ko te tangata whenua ka whakamatea, ina kohukohua e ia te ingoa o Ihowa.

17 Ki te whakamate hoki tetahi i tetahi tangata me tino whakamate ano ia;

18 Ki te whakamate hoki tetahi i te kararehe, me utu e ia; he kararehe mo te kararehe.

19 Ki te mate hoki i te tangata tetahi wahi o tona hoa; me mea ki a ia tana i mea ai:

20 He whati mo te whati, he kanohi mo te kanohi, he niho mo te niho: ko te mate i meatia e ia ki te tangata, me mea ano ki a ia.

21 Ki te whakamate hoki tetahi i te kararehe, me utu e ia: ki te whakamate hoki tetahi i te tangata, me whakamate ano ia.

22 Kia kotahi ano ta koutou whakawa mo te manene, mo te tangata whenua: ko Ihowa hoki ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

23 Na ka korero a Mohi ki nga tama a Iharaira, a kawea ana e ratou ki waho o te puni te tangata nana te kanga, a akina ana hoki ki te kamaka. A meatia ana e nga tama a Iharaira ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a Mohi.

1 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually. 3 Without the veil of the testimony, in the tent of meeting, shall Aaron keep it in order from evening to morning before Jehovah continually: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations. 4 He shall keep in order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before Jehovah continually.

5 And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof: two tenth parts of an ephah shall be in one cake. 6 And thou shalt set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table before Jehovah. 7 And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be to the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire unto Jehovah. 8 Every sabbath day he shall set it in order before Jehovah continually; it is on the behalf of the children of Israel, an everlasting covenant. 9 And it shall be for Aaron and his sons; and they shall eat it in a holy place: for it is most holy unto him of the offerings of Jehovah made by fire by a perpetual statute.

10 And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp: 11 and the son of the Israelitish woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed; and they brought him unto Moses. And his mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan. 12 And they put him in ward, that it might be declared unto them at the mouth of Jehovah.

13 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, 14 Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him. 15 And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin. 16 And he that blasphemeth the name of Jehovah, he shall surely be put to death; all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the sojourner, as the home-born, when he blasphemeth the name of Jehovah, shall be put to death. 17 And he that smiteth any man mortally shall surely be put to death. 18 And he that smiteth a beast mortally shall make it good, life for life. 19 And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbor; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him: 20 breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be rendered unto him. 21 And he that killeth a beast shall make it good: and he that killeth a man shall be put to death. 22 Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the sojourner, as for the home-born: for I am Jehovah your God. 23 And Moses spake to the children of Israel; and they brought forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. And the children of Israel did as Jehovah commanded Moses.
