¹If there be a controversy between men, and they come unto judgment, and [the judges] judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked;

¹¶ Ki te mea he tautohe ta etahi, a ka haere mai kia whakawakia, a ka whakawakia e nga kaiwhakariterite; me whakatika e ratou ta te tika, me whakahe ta te he;

²and it shall be, if the wicked man be worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his wickedness, by number.

²A, ki te meinga te tangata kino kia whiua, na me mea ia e te kaiwhakariterite kia takoto, kia whiua ki mua i tona aroaro, kia rite ki tona kino te maha o nga whiu.

³Forty stripes he may give him, he shall not exceed; lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then thy brother should seem vile unto thee.

³Kia wha tekau ana whakapanga ki a ia, kaua e maha ake: he mea hoki, ki te tuhene, a ka maha atu i enei nga whakapanga, na ka iti tou teina ki tau titiro.

⁴Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out [the grain].

⁴Kaua e whakamokatia te kau ina takahia e ia te witi.

⁵If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no son, the wife of the dead shall not be married without unto a stranger: her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother unto her.

⁵¶ Ki te noho tahi te taina me te tuakana, a ka mate tetahi o raua, a kahore ana tama, kaua te wahine a te tangata i mate e marenatia ki waho, ki te tangata ke; me haere tona autane ki a ia, ka tango ai i a ia hei wahine mana, me mea ki a ia nga mea e tika ana ma te autane.

⁶And it shall be, that the first-born that she beareth shall succeed in the name of his brother that is dead, that his name be not blotted out of Israel.

⁶A, ka whanau tana matamua, ko ia hei whakarerenga iho mo te ingoa o tona tuakana, teina ranei, i mate nei, a ka kore tona ingoa e horoia atu i roto i a Iharaira.

⁷And if the man like not to take his brother's wife, then his brother's wife shall go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel; he will not perform the duty of a husband's brother unto me.

⁷Ki te kahore taua tangata e pai ki te tango i tona auwahine, katahi ka haere tona auwahine ki te kuwaha, ki nga kaumatua, a ka mea, E kore toku autane e pai ki te whakatupu ingoa mo tona tuakana, teina ranei, i roto i a Iharaira, e kore e meatia e ia nga mea e tika ana ma toku autane.

⁸Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto him: and if he stand, and say, I like not to take her;

⁸Katahi ka karangatia ia e nga kaumatua o tona pa, a ka korero ratou ki a ia; a, ki te u tonu tana, a ka mea ia, E kore ahau e pai ki te tango i a ia;

⁹then shall his brother's wife come unto him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face; and she shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto the man that doth not build up his brother's house.

⁹Katahi ka whakatata tona auwahine ki a ia i te tirohanga a nga kaumatua, a ka unu i tona hu i tona waewae, ka tuwha hoki ki tona mata, a ka korero ake, ka mea, Kia peneitia te tangata e kore e hanga i te whare o tona tuakana, teina ranei.

¹⁰And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that hath his shoe loosed.

¹⁰A ka huaina tona ingoa i roto i a Iharaira, Ko te whare o te tangata i unuhia nei tona hu.

¹¹When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets;

¹¹Ki te whawhai etahi tangata ki a raua, a ka whakatata te wahine a tetahi ki te whakaora i tana tahu i te tangata e patu ana i a ia, a ka totoro tona ringa, ka mau hoki ki ona wahi ngaro;

¹²then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall have no pity.

¹²Me tapahi atu e koe tona ringa, kaua e tohu tou kanohi.

¹³Thou shalt not have in thy bag diverse weights, a great and a small.

¹³¶ Kaua e waiho i roto i tau kete nga kohatu pauna e kore e taurite, te mea nui, te mea iti.

¹⁴Thou shalt not have in thy house diverse measures, a great and a small.

¹⁴Kaua e waiho i roto i tou whare nga mehua e kore e taurite, te mea nui, te mea iti.

¹⁵A perfect and just weight shalt thou have; a perfect and just measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be long in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.

¹⁵Hei te mea rite tonu, hei te mea tika, tau kohatu pauna; hei te mea rite tonu, hei te mea tika, tau mehua: kia roa ai ou ra ki te whenua e homai nei e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe.

¹⁶For all that do such things, [even] all that do unrighteously, are an abomination unto Jehovah thy God.

¹⁶He mea whakarihariha hoki ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, te hunga katoa e pena ana, te hunga katoa e he ana te mahi.

¹⁷Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way as ye came forth out of Egypt;

¹⁷Kia mahara ki ta Amareke i mea ai ki a koe i te ara, i to koutou putanga mai i Ihipa;

¹⁸how he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God.

¹⁸Ki tona tutakitanga ki a koe ki te ara, a patua iho tou hiku e ia, nga mea ngoikore katoa i muri i a koe, i a koe e hemo ana, e ngenge ana; a kihai ia i wehi ki te Atua.

¹⁹Therefore it shall be, when Jehovah thy God hath given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; thou shalt not forget.

¹⁹Mo reira e meinga koe e Ihowa, e tou Atua, kia okioki i ou hoariri katoa a tawhio noa, ki te whenua e homai nei e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe kia nohoia hei kainga tupu, me ukui rawa atu te maharatanga ki a Amareke i raro i te rangi; kei warewar e rawa koe.
