¹It shall be, when you have come in to the land which Yahweh your God gives you for an inheritance, and possess it, and dwell therein,

¹¶ A tenei ake, a te wa e tae ai koe ki te whenua e homai e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe hei kainga tuturu, a ka riro a reira i a koe, a ka noho koe ki reira;

²that you shall take of the first of all the fruit of the ground, which you shall bring in from your land that Yahweh your God gives you; and you shall put it in a basket, and shall go to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.

²Na ka tango koe i etahi o nga mea matamua o nga hua katoa o te whenua, e mauria mai e koe i tou oneone, ka homai nei e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koe; a me whawhao e koe ki te kete, ka haere ai ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa, tou Atua, kia waiho tona ingoa ki reira.

³You shall come to the priest who shall be in those days, and tell him, “I profess this day to Yahweh your God, that I am come to the land which Yahweh swore to our fathers to give us.”

³Na ka haere koe ki te tohunga e minita ana i aua ra, ka mea ki a ia, Tenei ahau te korero nui nei i tenei ra ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, kua tae mai ahau ki te whenua i oati ai a Ihowa ki o tatou matua kia homai ki a tatou.

⁴The priest shall take the basket out of your hand, and set it down before the altar of Yahweh your God.

⁴Na ka tango te tohunga i te kete i tou ringa, ka whakatakoto hoki ki mau o te aata a Ihowa, a tou Atua.

⁵You shall answer and say before Yahweh your God, “A Syrian ready to perish was my father; and he went down into Egypt, and lived there, few in number; and he became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous.

⁵Ko reira koe oho atu ai, mea ai ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua, Ko toku matua he Hiriani, i ora noa i te mate; a haere ana ia ki raro, ki Ihipa, a noho ana i reira, he hunga torutoru; na meinga ana ia hei iwi nui i reira, he kaha, he tini:

⁶The Egyptians dealt ill with us, and afflicted us, and laid on us hard bondage:

⁶Na tukinotia ana matou e nga Ihipiana, whakawhiua ana matou, a he kino ta ratou whakamahinga i a matou:

⁷and we cried to Yahweh, the God of our fathers, and Yahweh heard our voice, and saw our affliction, and our toil, and our oppression;

⁷A ka tangi matou ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua o o matou matua, na whakarongo mai ana a Ihowa ki to matou reo, titiro mai ana ki to matou whakawhiunga, ki to matou whakamahinga, ki to matou tukinotanga:

⁸and Yahweh brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terror, and with signs, and with wonders;

⁸Na whakaputaina mai ana matou e Ihowa i Ihipa ki te ringa kaha, ki te takakau maro tonu, me te whakamataku nui, me nga tohu, me nga merekara:

⁹and he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.

⁹A kawea mai ana matou e ia ki tenei wahi, a homai ana ki a matou tenei whenua, he whenua e rerengia ana e te waiu, e te honi.

¹⁰Now, behold, I have brought the first of the fruit of the ground, which you, Yahweh, have given me.” You shall set it down before Yahweh your God, and worship before Yahweh your God.

¹⁰Na, titiro, kau kawea mai nei e ahau nga hua matamua o te whenua i homai nei e koe, e Ihowa, ki ahau. Katahi koe ka whakatakoto atu ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua, me te koropiko ano ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua:

¹¹You shall rejoice in all the good which Yahweh your God has given to you, and to your house, you, and the Levite, and the foreigner who is in the midst of you.

¹¹Ka koa hoki ki nga mea pai katoa i homai e Ihowa, e tou Atua, ki a koutou ko tou whare, a koe, me te Riwaiti me te manene i roto i a koe.

¹²When you have made an end of tithing all the tithe of your increase in the third year, which is the year of tithing, then you shall give it to the Levite, to the foreigner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, that they may eat within your gates, and be filled.

¹²¶ Ka pae nga whakatekau katoa o au hua i te toru o nga tau, i te tau whakatekau, me hoatu e koe ki te Riwaiti, ki te manene, ki te pani, ki te pouaru, kia kainga i roto i ou kuwaha, a ka makona;

¹³You shall say before Yahweh your God, “I have put away the holy things out of my house, and also have given them to the Levite, and to the foreigner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all your commandment which you have commanded me: I have not transgressed any of your commandments, neither have I forgotten them:

¹³A ka mea koe ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua Kua poto mai i ahau i roto i toku whare nga mea tapu, kua hoatu ano e ahau ki te Riwaiti, ki te manene, ki te pani, ki te pouaru, kua rite i ahau au whakahau katoa i whakahau ai koe ki ahau; kahore a hau i whakapaheke i tetahi o au whakahau, kahore ano i wareware:

¹⁴I have not eaten of it in my mourning, neither have I put away of it, being unclean, nor given of it for the dead: I have listened to the voice of Yahweh my God; I have done according to all that you have commanded me.

¹⁴Kihai i kainga e ahau tetahi wahi i ahau e noho taua ana; kihai i tangohia e ahau tetahi wahi mo te poke, kihai ano hoki i hoatu hei mea tupapaku: i whakarongo ahau ki te reo o Ihowa, o toku Atua, rite tonu aku mahi ki nga mea katoa i whakahaua e koe ki ahau.

¹⁵Look down from your holy habitation, from heaven, and bless your people Israel, and the ground which you have given us, as you swore to our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.”

¹⁵Titiro iho i tou nohoanga tapu, i te rangi, manaakitia hoki tau iwi, a Iharaira, me te oneone i homai nei e koe ki a matou, pera me tau i oati ai ki o matou matua, he whenua e rerengia ana e te waiu e te honi.

¹⁶This day Yahweh your God commands you to do these statutes and ordinances: you shall therefore keep and do them with all your heart, and with all your soul.

¹⁶¶ No tenei ra a Ihowa, tou Atua, i whakahau ai i a koe, kia mahia enei tikanga, me enei whakaritenga: na puritia e koe, mahia, e tou ngakau katoa, e tou wairua katoa.

¹⁷You have declared Yahweh this day to be your God, and that you would walk in his ways, and keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his ordinances, and listen to his voice:

¹⁷Kua whakaae koe i tenei ra ki a Ihowa hei Atua mou, kia haere i ana huarahi, kia whakaritea hoki ana tikanga, me ana whakahau, me ana whakaritenga, kia rongo ano hoki ki tona reo:

¹⁸and Yahweh has declared you this day to be a people for his own possession, as he has promised you, and that you should keep all his commandments;

¹⁸A kua whakaae hoki a Ihowa ki a koe i tenei ra hei iwi mana, motuhake rawa, hei pera me tana i korero ai ki a koe, hei pupuri hoki i ana whakahau katoa;

¹⁹and to make you high above all nations that he has made, in praise, and in name, and in honor; and that you may be a holy people to Yahweh your God, as he has spoken.

¹⁹Hei mea kia teitei ake koe i nga iwi katoa i hanga e ia, te whakamoemiti, te ingoa, te kororia; kia waiho hoki koe hei iwi tapu ma Ihowa, ma tou Atua, hei pera me tana i korero ai.
