1I mea anō a Ihowā ki a Ārona, “Māu, mā āu tama, mā koutou ko te whare o tōu pāpā e waha te kino o te wāhi tapu; ā, mā koutou ko āu tama e waha te kino o tā koutou mahi tohunga.

2Ā, ko ōu tēina hoki, o te iwi o Rīwai, o te iwi o tōu pāpā, me whakatata tahi me koe, kia tāpiritia ai rātou ki a koe, hei minita ki a koe; ko koutou tahi ia ko āu tama hei te tapenākara o te whakaaturanga.

3Ā, mā rātou tāu mahi e tiaki, me te mahi tiaki o te tapenākara katoa. Otiia, kaua e whakatata ki ngā oko o te wāhi tapu, ki te āta rānei, kei mate ko rātou, ko koutou rānei.

4Ā, ka tāpiritia rātou ki a koe, hei tiaki i ngā mea o te tapenākara o te whakaminenga, mō ngā mahi katoa o te tapenākara; kaua hoki te tangata kē e tata ki a koutou.

5“Mā koutou hoki e tiaki ngā mea o te wāhi tapu, me ngā mea o te āta; kei puta he riri ki ngā tama a Īharaira ā muri ake nei.

6Me ahau hoki, nanā, kua tango ahau i ō koutou tēina, i ngā Rīwaiti i roto i ngā tama a Īharaira; he mea hoatu ki a koutou mā Ihowā, hei mahi i ngā mahi o te tapenākara o te whakaminenga.

7Ko koutou ia ko āu tama, kia mau ki tā koutou mahi tohunga ki ngā mea katoa o te āta, o roto atu anō hoki i te ārai, hei mahi mā koutou. He mea hoatu noa atu tā koutou mahi tohunga e hoatu nei e ahau; ā, ka whakamatea te tangata kē e whakatata mai ana.”

8I kōrero anō a Ihowā ki a Ārona: “Nā, kua tukua atu nei e ahau ki a koe te tiaki o āku whakahere hapahapai, o ngā mea tapu katoa a ngā tama a Īharaira; he mea hoatu nāku ki a koutou ko āu tama, he whakaaro hoki ki te whakawahinga, he tikanga pūmau.

9Ko ngā mea tēnei māu o ngā mea tino tapu e kore nei e tukua ki te ahi; ko ā rātou whakahere katoa, ko ā rātou whakahere totokore katoa, me ā rātou whakahere hara katoa, me ā rātou whakahere katoa mō te hē, e tāpaea ki ahau; ka tino tapu mā koutou ko āu tama.

10Hei te wāhi tino tapu kai ai, mā ngā tāne katoa e kai; he tapu tēnā māu.

11“Māu anō tēnei: ko ngā whakahere hapahapai e hōmai ana e rātou me ngā whakahere poipoi katoa a ngā tama a Īharaira; kua hoatu aua mea e ahau ki a koe, ki a koutou ko āu tama, ko āu tamāhine, he tikanga pūmau; e kainga tēnā e ngā mea pokekore katoa o tōu whare.

12“Ko ngā wāhi papai katoa o te hinu, me ngā wāhi papai katoa o te wāina, o te wīti hoki, ko ngā tūāpora o aua mea e hōmai ana ki a Ihowā, kua hoatu ēnā e ahau ki a koe.

13Māu ngā hua mataati o ngā mea katoa o te whenua, e kawea mai ana ki a Ihowā; me kai e ngā mea pokekore katoa o tōu whare.

14“Māu ngā mea katoa i oti rawa i roto i a Īharaira.

15Ko ngā mea katoa e oroko puta mai ana i te kōpū o ngā kikokiko katoa, ko ngā mea hoki e whakaherea ana mā Ihowā, o te tangata, o te kararehe, māu ēnā. Otiia, me tino whakahoki atu e koe ki te utu ngā mātāmua a te tangata, me tango utu anō mō ngā mātāmua a te kararehe poke.

16Ā, ko ngā mea e utua ana e whakahokia ana, ka kotahi marama o tōna whānautanga, me tango ōna utu; kia rite ki tāu e whakarite ai, kia rima hekere ngā moni; hei ngā hekere wāhi tapu, (e rua tekau nei ngā kera).

17“Ko te mātāmua ia a te kau, me te mātāmua a te hipi, me te mātāmua a te koati, kaua e whakahokia atu e koe; he tapu ēnā. Me tāuhi e koe ō rātou toto ki te āta, me tahu anō ō rātou ngako hei whakahere ahi, hei kakara reka ki a Ihowā.

18Ā, māu ō rātou kikokiko, ka pērā me te uma poipoi, me te hūhā matau, nāu hoki ēnā.

19Ko ngā whakahere hapahapai katoa o roto o ngā mea tapu e tāpaea ana e ngā tama a Īharaira ki a Ihowā, kua hoatu e ahau ki a koutou ko āu tama, ko āu tamāhine; hei tikanga pūmau. Hei kawenata tote i te aroaro o Ihowā ake ake, ki a koutou tahi ko ōu uri.”

20Ā, i kōrero a Ihowā ki a Ārona, “Kāhore he kāinga tupu mōu i tō rātou whenua, kāhore anō hoki he wāhi mōu i roto i a rātou; ko ahau te wāhi mōu, tōu kāinga tupu i roto i ngā tama a Īharaira.

21“Kua hoatu nei hoki e ahau ki ngā tama a Rīwai ngā whakatekau katoa i roto i a Īharaira hei taonga tupu, hei utu mō tā rātou mahi e mahi ai rātou, mō te mahinga i te tapenākara o te whakaminenga.

22Kaua anō hoki ngā tama a Īharaira e whakatata ā muri ake nei ki te tapenākara o te whakaminenga, kei whai hara, kei mate.

23Mā ngā Rīwaiti ia e mahi ngā mahi o te tapenākara o te whakaminenga, me waha anō hoki e rātou tō rātou kino; hei tikanga pūmau ia mā ō koutou whakatupuranga, kia kāhore he kāinga tupu mō rātou i roto i ngā tama a Īharaira.

24Ko ngā whakatekau hoki a ngā tama a Īharaira, e tāpaea nei hei whakahere hapahapai ki a Ihowā, kua hoatu e ahau hei wāhi tupu ki ngā Rīwaiti. Koia ahau i mea ai ki a rātou, e kore rātou e whai kāinga tupu i roto i ngā tama a Īharaira.”

25I kōrero anō a Ihowā ki a Mohi, i mea,

26“Kōrero anō ki ngā Rīwaiti, mea atu ki a rātou: ‘Ka tangohia e koutou ngā whakatekau a ngā tama a Īharaira e hoatu nei e ahau ki a koutou i roto i ā rātou mea hei wāhi tupu mō koutou, me tāpae he whakahere hapahapai ki a Ihowā i roto i taua mea, he wāhi whakatekau o aua whakatekau.

27Ā, ka kīia tēnei whakahere hapahapai he mea nā koutou, he pērā me te wīti o te patunga wīti, me te pūrenatanga hoki o te poka wāina.

28Nā, me tāpae anō hoki e koutou he whakahere hapahapai ki a Ihowā i roto i ā koutou whakatekau katoa e tangohia ana e koutou i ngā tama a Īharaira; me hōmai te whakahere hapahapai a Ihowā i roto i taua mea ki te tohunga, ki a Ārona.

29Me tāpae ngā whakahere hapahapai katoa mā Ihowā i roto i ngā mea katoa e hōmai ana ki a koutou, i roto i ngā mea papai katoa o ēnā, arā te wāhi tapu o roto.’

30“Me kī atu ki a rātou: ‘Ka hapahapai koutou i te wāhi tino pai o taua mea, me kī tēnā he mea nā ngā Rīwaiti, he pērā me te hua o te patunga wīti, me te pūrenatanga hoki o te poka wāina.

31Ā, me kai tēnā e koutou ko ō koutou whare ki ngā wāhi katoa; ko tō koutou utu hoki ia mō tā koutou mahi i te tapenākara o te whakaminenga.

32Ā, e kore e waha e koutou he hara i reira, ina hapahapainga tōna wāhi pai; kaua anō e whakapokea ngā mea tapu a ngā tama a Īharaira, kei mate koutou.’ ”
