Numbers 17
Maori Bible
17 I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,
2 Korero ki nga tama a Iharaira, tangohia mai ano he tokotoko i tenei, i tenei, o ratou, i nga whare o o ratou matua, i nga ariki katoa o nga whare o o ratou matua, kia kotahi tekau ma rua nga tokotoko: me tuhituhi te ingoa o tenei, o tenei, ki tan a tokotoko.
3 Me tuhituhi ano hoki te ingoa o Arona ki te tokotoko a Riwai: a kia kotahi te tokotoko ma ia upoko o te whare o o ratou matua.
4 A me whakatakoto e koe ki roto ki te tapenakara o te whakaminenga ki mua o te whakaaturanga, ki te wahi e tutaki ai ahau ki a koutou.
5 Na, ko te tangata e whiriwhiri ai ahau, ka pihi tana tokotoko, a ka pehia atu e ahau te amuamu a nga tama a Iharaira, e amuamu nei ki a korua.
6 Na ka korero a Mohi ki nga tama a Iharaira, a homai ana e o ratou ariki katoa ki a ia, he tokotoko e tenei ariki, he tokotoko e tenei ariki, e nga whare o o ratou matua, kotahi tekau ma rua nga tokotoko: i roto ano i a ratou tokotoko te tokotoko a Arona.
7 A whakatakotoria ana nga tokotoko e Mohi ki te aroaro o Ihowa ki te tapenakara o te whakaaturanga.
8 A i te aonga ake, na, ka haere a Mohi ki te tapenakara o te whakaaturanga; e! kua pihi te tokotoko a Arona, ta te whare o Riwai, kua wana, kua rapupuku, kua kohera hoki he puawai, kua hua he aramona.
9 Na kawea ana e Mohi nga tokotoko katoa i te aroaro o Ihowa ki nga tama katoa a Iharaira: a tirohia iho ana e ratou, tangohia ana hoki e ratou tana tokotoko, tana tokotoko.
10 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Whakahokia mai te tokotoko a Arona ki mua i te whakaaturanga, kia tiakina, hei tohu ki te hunga tutu; a ka kore i koe a ratou amuamu e rongo nei ahau, kei mate ratou.
11 A peratia ana e Mohi, rite tonu ki ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a ia tana i mea ai.
12 Na ka mea nga tama a Iharaira ki a Mohi, Nana, ka mate matou, ka ngaro matou, ngaro katoa.
13 Ko te tangata e whakatata ana ki te tapenakara o Ihowa, ka mate: kia poto ranei matou katoa ki te mate?

The Budding of Aaron’s Staff
17 [a]The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Speak to the Israelites and get twelve staffs(A) from them, one from the leader of each of their ancestral tribes.(B) Write the name of each man on his staff. 3 On the staff of Levi write Aaron’s name,(C) for there must be one staff for the head of each ancestral tribe. 4 Place them in the tent of meeting(D) in front of the ark of the covenant law,(E) where I meet with you.(F) 5 The staff belonging to the man I choose(G) will sprout,(H) and I will rid myself of this constant grumbling(I) against you by the Israelites.”
6 So Moses spoke to the Israelites, and their leaders gave him twelve staffs, one for the leader of each of their ancestral tribes, and Aaron’s staff was among them. 7 Moses placed the staffs before the Lord in the tent of the covenant law.(J)
8 The next day Moses entered the tent(K) and saw that Aaron’s staff,(L) which represented the tribe of Levi, had not only sprouted but had budded, blossomed and produced almonds.(M) 9 Then Moses brought out all the staffs(N) from the Lord’s presence to all the Israelites. They looked at them, and each of the leaders took his own staff.
10 The Lord said to Moses, “Put back Aaron’s staff(O) in front of the ark of the covenant law, to be kept as a sign to the rebellious.(P) This will put an end to their grumbling against me, so that they will not die.” 11 Moses did just as the Lord commanded him.
12 The Israelites said to Moses, “We will die! We are lost, we are all lost!(Q) 13 Anyone who even comes near the tabernacle of the Lord will die.(R) Are we all going to die?”
