| Chapter 21 |
1 | ¶ A ko nga whakariteritenga enei e whakatakotoria e koe ki to ratou aroaro. |
2 | Ki te hoki koe i tetahi pononga Hiperu, e ono nga tau e mahi i a ia: a i te whitu ka haere noa atu, kaua he utu. |
3 | Ki te mea he takakau ia i tona haerenga mai, me haere atu ano he takakau: ki te mea he wahine tana, ko raua ko tana wahine e haere. |
4 | Ki te mea na tona ariki te wahine i hoatu ki a ia, a ka whanau a raua tama, tamahine ranei; ma tona ariki te wahine ratou ko ana tamariki, ko ia anake e haere. |
5 | A ki te mea matanui te pononga, E aroha ana ahau ki toku ariki, ki taku wahine, ki aku tamariki; e kore ahau e haere noa atu: |
6 | Na, me kawe ia e tona ariki ki te Atua; me kawe hoki ia e ia ki te tatau, ki te pou ranei o te tatau: a ka pokaia tona taringa e tona ariki ki te oka; a ka oti iho ia hei kaimahi mana. |
7 | Ki te hokona atu hoki e tetahi tangata tana tamahine hei pononga, e kore e rite tona haerenga ki waho ki te haerenga o nga pononga tane. |
8 | Ki te kino ia ki te titiro a tona ariki, i taumau nei i a ia mana, na, me whakahoki ia mo tetahi utu: e kore e ahei te hoko i a ia ki tetahi iwi ke; mona hoki i tinihanga ki a ia. |
9 | A ki te taumautia ia e ia ma tana tama, kia rite ki te tikanga ki nga tamahine tupu tana e mea ai ki a ia. |
10 | Ki te tango ia i tetahi atu wahine mana kaua e whakaititia e ia te kai ma tera, te kakahu mona, me ta raua moe tahi. |
11 | A ki te kahore enei mea e toru e meatia e ia ki a ia, na, me haere noa atu ia, kaua he moni. |
12 | ¶ Ki te patu tetahi i te tangata kia mate, me tino whakamate ano ia. |
13 | A ki te kahore tetahi e whanga atu, a ka mea te Atua kia tupono ki tona ringa; na, maku e whakarite ki a koe te wahi e rere ai ia. |
14 | Tena ko tenei i poka noa te tangata ki tona hoa, ki te kohuru tinihanga i a ia; me tango ia e koe i taku aata, kia mate ai ia. |
15 | Me tino whakamate ano hoki te tangata e patu ana i tona papa, i tona whaea ranei. |
16 | Ko te tangata hoki e tahae ana i tetahi tangata, a hokona ana e ia, e kitea ana ranei ki tona ringa, me tino whakamate ano ia. |
17 | Me tino whakamate ano hoki te tangata e kanga ana i tona papa, i tona whaea ranei. |
18 | Ki te whawhai hoki etahi tangata ki a raua a ka akina tona hoa e tetahi ki te kohatu, ka motokia ranei, a kahore ia e mate, engari ka takoto i runga i te moenga; |
19 | Ki te ara ake ia, a ka haereere ki waho me te toko i tana tokotoko, katahi ka kore te hara o te tangata i patua ai ia; otiia me utu e ia tona whakamangeretanga ki te mahi, me mea hoki kia ata rongoatia kia ora ai. |
20 | Ki te patu hoki te tangata i tana pononga tane, i tana pononga wahine ranei, ki te rakau, a ka mate i raro iho i tona ringa; me ata takitaki tona matenga. |
21 | Otiia ki te ora ia, kotahi, e rua ranei, nga ra, e kore e takitakina: no te mea ko tana moni ia. |
22 | ¶ Ki te whawhai etahi tangata ki a ratou, a ka whara tetahi wahine e hapu ana, a ka materoto tana tamaiti, otiia kahore atu he he, me tango he utu i a ia, ara ta te tahu o te wahine e whakarite ai ki a ia; hei ta nga kaiwhakawa e mea ai tana e hom ai ai. |
23 | Engari ki te mate, na, me homai e koe he mate hei utu mo te mate, |
24 | He kanohi mo te kanohi, he niho mo te niho, he ringa mo te ringa, he waewae mo te waewae, |
25 | He wera mo te wera, he motu mo te motu, he karawarawa mo te karawarawa. |
26 | Ki te patua e te tangata te kanohi o tana pononga tane, te kanohi ranei o tana pononga wahine, a ka matapotia; me tuku kia haere noa atu, hei utu mo tona kanohi. |
27 | A ki te patua e ia kia marere te niho o tana pononga tane, te niho ranei o tana pononga wahine; me tuku kia haere noa atu, hei utu mo tona niho. |
28 | Ki te werohia tetahi tangata, tetahi wahine ranei, e te kau, a ka mate; me tino aki te kau ki te kohatu, kaua ano hoki ona kikokiko e kainga; a ka tukua noatia atu te rangatira o te kau. |
29 | Otiia ki te mea he kau wero ia no mua, a kua whakaaturia ki tona rangatira, a kahore ia e tiaki i a ia, a ka mate i a ia tetahi tangata, tetahi wahine ranei; me aki te kau ki te kohatu, me whakamate ano hoki tona rangatira. |
30 | Ki te whakaritea kia homai e ia he moni, me homai e ia hei utu mo tona ora te mea i whakaritea ki a ia. |
31 | Ki te mea he tama, he kotiro ranei i werohia e ia, kia rite ano ki tenei tikanga te meatanga ki a ia. |
32 | Ki te wero te kau i tetahi pononga tane, i tetahi pononga wahine ranei; kia toru tekau nga hekere hiriwa e homai ki to raua ariki, me aki hoki te kau ki te kohatu. |
33 | Ki te whakatuwhera hoki te tangata i tetahi poka, ki te keria ranei e te tangata tetahi poka, a e kore e hipokina e ia, a ka taka he kau, he kaihe ranei ki roto; |
34 | Me utu e te tangata nana te poka, me homai he moni e ia ki to raua ariki; a mana te mea mate. |
35 | Ki te tukia te kau a tetahi tangata e te kau e tetahi, a ka mate; na, me hoko e raua te kau ora, ka wehe ai i ona tutu; me wehe ano hoki e raua te mea kua mate. |
36 | Otiia ki te mea i mohiotia he kau wero ia no mua, a kahore i tiakina e tona ariki, me utu e ia te kau ki te kau; a mana te mea mate. |
