Te Rohe Tapu
1 “I ngā wā anō e wehea ai e koutou te whenua hei wāhi tupu, me whakahere he whakahere mā Ihowā, me whakatapu tētahi wāhi o te whenua. Ko tōna roa ko te roa o ngā kākaho e rua tekau mā rima mano; ko te whānui kotahi tekau mano. Ka tapu tēnei, ōna taha katoa ā tawhio noa. 2 Waiho tētahi wāhi o tēnei kia rima rau te roa mō te wāhi tapu, kia rima rau te whānui, he tapawhā ā tawhio noa, kia rima tekau anō ngā whatīanga mō waho ake ā tawhio noa. 3 Me whanganga anō e koe tētahi wāhi o tēnei ka oti nei te whanganga kia rua tekau mā rima mano te roa, kia tekau mano te whānui; ā, hei reira te wāhi tapu, te Wāhi Tapu Rawa. 4 He wāhi tapu ia nō te whenua; mō ngā tohunga tērā, mō ngā minita o te wāhi tapu e whakatata ana ki te minita ki a Ihowā. Hei wāhi anō tērā mō ō rātou whare, hei wāhi tapu anō mō te wāhi tapu. 5 Ko te rua tekau mā rima mano nei te roa, tekau mano te whānui, mō ngā Rīwaiti, mō ngā minita o te whare, hei wāhi mō rātou, mō ngā rūma e rua tekau.
6 “Me whakarite anō e koutou te wāhi mō te pā, e rima mano te whānui, e rua tekau mā rima mano te roa, ki te taha o te wāhi tapu ka whakaherea nei; mō te whare katoa o Īharaira tērā.
7 “Ā, he aha he wāhi mō te rangatira, hei tētahi taha, hei tētahi taha o te wāhi tapu ka whakaherea nei, o te wāhi anō i te pā, ki mua o te wāhi tapu ka whakaherea nei, o te wāhi hoki i te pā, i te taha ki te hauāuru whaka te hauāuru, i te taha hoki ki te rāwhiti, whaka te rāwhiti, kia rite anō te roa ki tētahi o aua wāhi, me tīmata i te rohe ki te hauāuru ā tae noa ki te rohe ki te rāwhiti. 8 Kei te whenua te wāhi mōna i roto i a Īharaira! E kore anō āku rangatira e whakatupu kino i tāku iwi ā muri ake nei; engari me hoatu e rātou te whenua ki te whare o Īharaira, ki tēnei hapū, ki tēnei hapū.
9 “Ko te kupu tēnei a te Ariki, a Ihowā: Kāti tā koutou, e ngā rangatira o Īharaira; whakarērea atu te tūkino, te pāhua, mahia te whakawā, me te tika, whakamutua ā koutou peinga i tāku iwi, e ai tā te Ariki, tā Ihowā.”
He Pāuna me he Whātau
10 “Kia tika ā koutou pāuna, kia tika te epa, kia tika te pāti. 11 Kia kotahi te mēhua mō te epa, mō te pāti. Ko te pāti he whakatekau nō te homa, ko te epa hoki he whakatekau nō te homa. Ko te mēhua mō taua mea ko te homa. 12 Ā, ko te hekere kia rua tekau ngā kera; ko tā koutou mane kia rua tekau hekere, kia rua tekau mā rima hekere, kia kotahi tekau mā rima hekere.”
He Whakahere
13 “Ko te whakahere tēnei e whakaherea e koutou; he wīti, ko te wāhi tuaono o te epa o te homa; ā, me hōmai e koutou he pārei, hei te wāhi tuaono o te epa o te homa. 14 Nā, ko te tikanga mō te hinu, mō te pāti hinu, hei te whakatekau o te pāti i roto i te koro, he homa nei tāna, arā tekau ngā pāti; kotahi tekau hoki ngā pāti o te homa. 15 Kia kotahi anō reme i roto i te kāhui, i roto i ngā rau e rua, he mea nō ngā hāereerenga mākūkū o Īharaira; hei whakahere totokore, hei tahunga tinana, hei whakahere mō te pai, hei mea whakamārie mō rātou, e ai tā te Ariki, tā Ihowā. 16 Me hoatu tēnei whakahere e te iwi katoa o te whenua ki te rangatira i roto i a Īharaira. 17 Nā, ko tēnei tā te rangatira, he hōmai i ngā tahunga tinana, i ngā whakahere totokore, i ngā ringihanga, mō ngā hākari, mō ngā kōwhititanga marama, mō ngā hāpati, mō ngā huihuinga nui katoa o te whare o Īharaira. Kia rite mai anō i a ia te whakahere hara, te whakahere totokore, te tahunga tinana, ngā whakahere mō te pai, hei whakamārie mō te whare o Īharaira.”
He Hākari
(Ekoruhe 12.1-20; Rewitikuha 23.33-43)
18 “Ko te kupu tēnei a Ihowā, a te Atua: I te marama tuatahi, i te tuatahi o ngā rā o te marama, me tiki e koe he pūru kūao, hei te mea kohakore, ka pure i te wāhi tapu. 19 Me tango anō e te tohunga tētahi wāhi o te toto o te whakahere hara, ka pani ki ngā pou o te whare, ki ngā koki e whā anō o te papa o te āta, ki ngā pou anō o te kūwaha o tō roto marae. 20 Ko tāu anō tērā e mea ai i te whitu o ngā rā o te marama hei mea mō te tangata i te hē, mō te kūware; ā, ka oti te whakamārie mō te whare.
21 “Hei te marama tuatahi, hei te tekau mā whā o ngā rā o te marama, tā koutou Kapenga, he hākari, e whitu ngā rā; ko te taro hei kai, he mea rēwenakore. 22 Kia rite mai anō hoki i te rangatira i taua rā, he pūru hei whakahere hara mōna, mō te iwi katoa o te whenua. 23 Kia rite mai anō i a ia i ngā rā e whitu o te hākari te tahunga tinana mā Ihowā, e whitu ngā pūru, e whitu ngā hipi toa, he mea kohakore i tēnei rā, i tēnei rā, i ngā rā e whitu; me tētahi kūao koati i tēnei rā, i tēnei rā, hei whakahere hara. 24 Kia rite mai anō i a ia he whakahere totokore, kotahi te pūru kia kotahi anō te epa, kotahi te hipi toa kia kotahi anō te epa, kotahi te epa kia kotahi hine hinu.
25 “I te whitu o ngā marama, i te tekau mā rima o ngā rā o te marama, i te hākari, ka mahia mai e ia ēnei mea, kia whitu ngā rā; kia rite ki te whakahere hara, ki te tahunga tinana, ki te whakahere totokore, ki te hinu hoki.”
