Maori Bible
42 Katahi ahau ka kawea e ia ki to waho marae, ki te ara ki te raki; kawea ana ahau e ia ki te ruma ki te ritenga atu o te wahi motuhake, ki tera i te aronga mai o te whare e anga ana ki te raki.
2 I te ritenga atu o nga whatianga kotahi rau ko te tatau ki te raki, e rima tekau whatianga te whanui.
3 I te ritenga atu o nga whatianga e rua tekau o to roto marae, i te ritenga atu ano o te papa kohatu i to waho marae, ko tetahi ara e anga mai ana ki tetahi ara, i te toru o nga whakapaparanga.
4 Na i mua i nga ruma ko tetahi wahi haereerenga kotahi tekau whatianga, he mea e anga ana whakaroto, kotahi te whatianga o te ara; i anga o raua tatau ki te raki.
5 Na i poto iho nga ruma o runga: na nga ara hoki i tango tetahi wahi o enei, nui atu i te tangohanga mai i o raro, i o waenganui, o te whare.
6 E toru hoki nga whakapaparanga, kahore ia he pou pera me nga pou o nga marae: na reira i huiti ai o runga rawa i o raro, i o waenganui, i te mea ka anga ake i te whenua.
7 Na, ko te taha i waho e anga ana ki nga ruma, ki to waho marae i te taha ki mua o nga ruma, ko tona roa e rima tekau whatianga.
8 E rima tekau whatianga hoki te roa o nga ruma i to waho marae: na i mua i te temepara kotahi rau whatianga.
9 I raro ano i enei ruma te tapokoranga atu i te rawhiti, i te mea ka tapoko atu i to waho marae.
10 He ruma ano i te wahi matotoru o te pakitara i te marae ki te rawhiti, i te ritenga atu o te wahi motuhake, i te ritenga ake ano o te whare.
11 Na, ko te ara i mua i era, rite tonu te ahua ki to nga ruma i anga ki te raki; rite tonu te roa, rite tonu te whanui: ko nga putanga atu rite tonu ki nga tikanga, rite tonu ki nga tatau.
12 Rite tonu ano ki nga tatau o nga ruma e anga ana ki te tonga te tatau i te ahunga mai o te ara, o te ara i mua tonu i te taiepa ki te rawhiti i te mea ka tomo tetahi ki roto.
13 Katahi ia ka mea ki ahau, Ko nga ruma ki te raki, ko nga ruma ki te tonga i mua i te wahi motuhake, he ruma tapu ena, ka kainga nga mea tapu rawa ki reira e nga tohunga e whakatata ana ki a Ihowa: me waiho i reira nga mea tapu rawa, me te whakah ere totokore, me te whakahere hara, me te whakahere mo te he: he tapu hoki taua wahi.
14 Ka tae nga tohunga ki roto, kaua e haere atu i roto i te wahi tapu ki to waho marae; engari me waiho i reira o ratou kakahu e minita ai, he tapu hoki; me kakahu ano etahi atu kakahu, ka whakatata ai ki nga mea ma te iwi.
15 Na ka mutu tana whanganga i to roto whare, ka kawea ahau e ia ki te kuwaha e anga ana ki te rawhiti, whanganga ana ia i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha.
16 I whanganga e ia ki te kakaho whanganga te taha ki te rawhiti, e rima rau kakaho, he mea whanganga ki te kakaho whanganga, i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha.
17 I whanganga ia ki te taha i te raki, e rima rau kakaho, he mea whanganga ki te kakaho whanganga, i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha.
18 I whanganga ia ki te taha ki te tonga e rima rau kakaho, he mea whanganga ki te kakaho whanganga.
19 I tahuri atu ia ki te taha ki te hauauru, whanganga ana e ia, e rima rau kakaho, ki te kakaho whanganga.
20 Whanganga ana a reira e ia i nga taha e wha: he taiepa tona a tawhio noa, e rima rau kakaho te roa, e rima rau te whanui, hei wehe i te wahi tapu i te wahi noa.
43 Muri iho ka kawea ahau e ia ki te kuwaha, ara ki te kuwaha e anga ana ki te rawhiti.
2 Na, ko te kororia o te Atua o Iharaira e puta mai ana, i te ara ki te rawhiti; ko tona reo rite tonu ki te haruru o nga wai maha: marama tonu te whenua i tona kororia.
3 Ko tona rite kei te ahua o taku kite i kite ai, ki tera i kite ra ahau i ahau e haere ana ki te whakangaro i te pa; rite tonu hoki nga kite ki taku i kite ai ki te awa, ki Kepara: a takoto tapapa ana ahau.
4 Na kua tae te kororia o Ihowa ki roto ki te whare; i tika na te ara o te kuwaha e anga ana ki te rawhiti.
5 Na ka hapainga ake ahau e te wairua, kawea ana e ia ki to roto marae. Na, kua ki te whare i te kororia o Ihowa.
6 I rongo ano ahau i tetahi e korero ana ki ahau i roto i te whare: me te tu ano tetahi tangata ki toku taha.
7 Na ka mea ia ki ahau; E te tama a te tangata, Ko te wahi tenei i toku torona, ko te wahi ano i nga kapu o oku waewae, ko te wahi e noho nei ahau i waenganui i nga tama a Iharaira a ake ake; e kore ano toku ingoa tapu e whakapokea a muri nei e te whare o Iharaira, e ratou, e o ratou kingi, ki a ratou moepuku, ki nga tinana ranei o o ratou kingi i o ratou wahi tiketike;
8 I ta ratou whakanohoanga i to ratou paepae ki te taha o toku paepae, i to ratou pou tatau i te taha o toku pou tatau, a ko te taiepa anake hei wehe i ahau i a ratou; i whakapokea e ratou toku ingoa tapu ki a ratou mea whakarihariha i mahia nei e ratou; no reira pau ake ratou i ahau, i ahau e riri ana.
9 Na me wehe atu e ratou o ratou moepuku me nga tinana o o ratou kingi, kia matara atu i ahau, a ka noho ahau ki waenganui i a ratou a ake ake.
10 Ko koe, e te tama a te tangata whakakitea e koe te whare ki te whare o Iharaira, kia whakama ai ratou ki o ratou he; me whanganga hoki e ratou te tauira.
11 A, ki te whakama ratou ki nga mea katoa i mea ai ratou, whakakitea ki a ratou te ahua o te whare, tona whai hanga, ona putanga atu, ona tapokoranga ki roto, ona ahua katoa, ona ritenga katoa, me ona ahua katoa, me ona ture katoa, tuhituhia ano k i to ratou aroaro, kia mau ai i a ratou tona ahua katoa me ona ritenga katoa, kia mahia ai e ratou.
12 Ko te ture tenei o te whare; ko nga taha katoa i runga i te tihi o te maunga, tapu rawa a tawhio noa. Nana, ko te ture tenei o te whare.
13 Ko nga roroa enei o te aata, ara ko nga whatianga: he whatianga me te whanui ringa kei roto i te whatianga; a raro he whatianga, ko te whanui he whatianga, ko te taha i te niao he whanganga ringa a tawhio noa: ko te kaupapa tenei o te aata.
14 Na, ko te turanga i runga i te whenua, haere ake ki to raro papa, e rua whatianga; ko te whanui kia kotahi whatianga; ko to te papa i raro tae noa ki te papa nui, e wha whatianga; ko te whanui, kotahi whatianga.
15 Na, ko to runga aata, e wha whatianga; i te takuahi o te aata whakarunga kia wha nga haona.
16 Kia tekau ma rua whatianga te roa o te takuahi o te aata, kia tekau ma rua whatianga te whanui, he tapawha, e wha hoki nga taha.
17 Na, ko te papa, kia tekau ma wha whatianga te roa, kia tekau ma wha ano te whanui o nga taha e wha: ko te niao i te taha hei te hawhe whatianga; ko te turanga, kia kotahi te whatianga a tawhio noa; kia anga ano te pikitanga ki te rawhiti.
18 I ki mai ano ia ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Ko nga tikanga tenei o te aata i te ra e hanga ai hei whakaekenga mo te tahunga tinana, hei tauhiuhi mo te toto.
19 Me hoatu e koe he puru, he kuao, hei whakahere hara ki nga tohunga, ki nga Riwaiti, ki nga uri o Haroko, e whakatata ana ki ahau minita ai, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
20 Me tango ano e koe tetahi wahi o ona toto, ka pani ki ona haona e wha, ki nga koki e wha o te papa, ki te taha a tawhio noa: na ka purea taua aata e koe, ka meinga kia ma.
21 Me tiki ano te puru, te whakahere hara, a mana e tahu ki te wahi o te whare i whakaritea i waho o te wahi tapu.
22 Na i te rua o nga ra me whakahere he koati toa, he mea kohakore, hei whakahere hara, a ka purea te aata, ka peratia me ta ratou purenga ki te kau.
23 Ka oti te pure e koe, me whakahere he kuao puru, he mea kohakore, me tetahi hipi toa o te kahui, hei te mea kohakore.
24 Me whakahere e koe ki te aroaro o Ihowa, mea maka ano e nga tohunga he tote ki runga, ka whakaeke ai hei tahunga tinana ki a Ihowa.
25 E whitu nga ra e mahia ai e koe he hipi hei whakahere hara i tenei ra, i tenei ra; me mahi ano e ratou he kuao puru me tetahi hipi toa o te kahui, he mea kohakore.
26 E whitu nga ra e tahia ai e ratou te poke o te aata, e purea ai; ka pena ta ratou whakatapu i te aata.
27 A ka poto enei ra, na i te waru o nga ra, i o muri iho ano, ka mahia e nga tohunga a koutou tahunga tinana ki runga ki te aata, me a koutou whakahere mo te pai: a ka manako ahau ki a koutou, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
44 Katahi ahau ka whakahokia e ia na te ara o te kuwaha o waho o te wahi tapu e anga ana ki te rawhiti; na kua oti te tutaki.
2 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki ahau, Ko tenei kuwaha me tutaki tonu, e kore e whakatuwheratia, e kore ano tetahi tangata e tomo ma konei: no te mea i na konei atu a Ihowa, te Atua o Iharaira; na reira i tutakina ai.
3 Tena ko te rangatira, me noho ia ki konei, he rangatira, ki te kai taro i te aroaro o Ihowa, ko tona ara ki roto kei te whakamahau o taua kuwaha; ko tona ara ano tena ki waho.
4 Katahi ahau ka kawea e ia na te ara o te kuwaha ki te raki, ki te aronga o te whare: na, i taku tirohanga atu, nana, kua ki te whare o Ihowa i te kororia o Ihowa, a tapapa ana ahau.
5 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata anga mai tou ngakau, titiro hoki ou kanohi, whakarongo ano ou taringa ki nga mea katoa e korero ai ahau ki a koe mo nga tikanga katoa o te whare o Ihowa, mo nga ture katoa ano o reira; ata mahara ano ki te tomokanga atu ki te whare, ki nga putanga katoa hoki i te wahi tapu.
6 Me ki atu ano e koe ki te hunga whakakeke, ki te whare o Iharaira, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Kati ra a koutou mea whakarihariha, e te whare o Iharaira.
7 Kua kawea mai na hoki e koutou he tautangata, he hunga kihai i kotia te ngakau, kihai i kotia te kikokiko, ki toku wahi tapu noho ai, hei whakapoke mo reira, ara mo toku whare, i te mea e whakaherea ana e koutou taku taro, te ngako, me te toto, a he iho taku kawenata i a ratou, hei apiti ki a koutou mea whakarihariha katoa.
8 Kihai ano i mau i a koutou te tiaki i aku mea tapu: heoi whakaritea ana e koutou a koutou ake kaitiaki mo aku mea i roto i toku wahi tapu.
9 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Kaua tetahi tautangata kihai i kotia te ngakau, kihai i kotia te kikokiko, e tomo ki toku wahi tapu, o nga tautangata katoa i roto i nga tama a Iharaira.
10 Engari, ko nga Riwaiti i mawehe atu ra i ahau, i te kotititanga ketanga o Iharaira, i a ratou i kotiti atu ai i ahau, i whai ai i a ratou whakapakoko: ka mau ki a ratou to ratou kino.
11 Otiia hei minita ano ratou i roto i toku wahi tapu, hei tiaki i nga kuwaha o te whare, hei minita ki te whare: ma ratou e patu te tahunga tinana me te patunga tapu a te iwi, me tu ano ratou ki to ratou aroaro minita ai ki a ratou.
12 No te mea i minita ratou ki a ratou i te aroaro o a ratou whakapakoko, a meinga ana e ratou te whare o Iharaira kia taka ki te kino; na reira i ara ai toku ringa ki a ratou, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa; ka mau ki a ratou to ratou kino.
13 E kore ano ratou e whakatata ki ahau, hei tohunga maku, e kore ano e whakatata ki tetahi o aku mea tapu i te wahi tapu rawa: engari, ka mau to ratou whakama ki a ratou, me a ratou mea whakarihariha i mahia e ratou.
14 Otira ka meinga ratou e ahau hei kaitiaki mo nga mea o te whare, mo nga mahi katoa o reira, mo nga mea katoa ano e meatia ki reira.
15 Engari era tohunga, nga Riwaiti, nga tama a Haroko, i tiaki nei i nga mea o toku wahi tapu, i nga tama a Iharaira i kotiti ke atu ra i ahau, ko ratou e whakatata ki ahau ki te minita ki ahau, ka tu ano ratou i toku aroaro hei whakahere i te ngak o, i te toto, ki ahau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa:
16 Ko ratou e tomo ki roto ki toku wahi tapu, ko ratou ano e whakatata ki taku tepu hei minita ki ahau, ma ratou ano aku mea e tiaki.
17 A ka tomo ratou ki roto ki nga kuwaha o to roto marae, hei te kakahu rinena he kakahu mo ratou; kaua hoki tetahi mea huruhuru e mau ki a ratou, i a ratou e minita ana i roto i nga kuwaha o to roto marae, i roto ano i te whare.
18 He potae rinena mo o ratou mahunga, he tarautete rinena ano hoki mo o ratou hope; kaua e whitikiria e ratou he mea e heke ai te werawera.
19 Na ka haere atu ratou ki to waho marae, ara ki te marae i waho, ki te iwi, me unu o ratou kakahu i minita ai ratou, ka waiho ki nga ruma tapu, a me kakahu etahi atu kakahu; kei tapu te iwi i o ratou kakahu.
20 Kaua ano ratou e heu i o ratou mahunga, kaua nga makawe e whakatupuria kia roa; ko te kutikuti anake mo o ratou mahunga.
21 Kaua ano tetahi tohunga e inu waina, ina haere ratou ki to roto marae.
22 Kaua ano ratou e tango i te pouaru, i te mea ranei i whakarerea, hei wahine ma ratou; engari, ko ta ratou e tango ai hei nga wahine o nga uri o te whare o Iharaira, hei te pouaru ranei a tetahi tohunga.
23 A me whakaako e ratou toku iwi ki te wehe i te tapu, i te noa; me mea kia mohio ki te poke, ki te ma.
24 I te tautohetohenga hoki me tu ratou hei whakawa; kia rite ano a ratou whakawa ki aku whakawa; me pupuri e ratou aku ture, me aku tikanga i roto i aku hakari whakarite katoa; me whakatapu ano e ratou aku hapati.
25 Kaua ano ratou e tae ki te tupapaku, whakapoke ai i a ratou; e whakapoke ano ia ratou i a ratou ano mo te papa, mo te whaea, mo te tama, mo te tamahine, mo te tuakana, teina ranei, mo te tuahine kahore nei ana tahu.
26 A, ka oti ia te pure, me tatau kia whitu nga ra mona.
27 Na, a te ra e tomo ai ia ki te wahi tapu, ki to roto marae, ki te minita i roto i te wahi tapu, me whakahere e ia tana whakahere hara, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
28 A ka whai kainga tupu ratou; ko ahau hei kainga tupu mo ratou: kaua hoki tetahi kainga e hoatu ki a ratou i roto i a Iharaira: ko ahau hei kainga mo ratou.
29 Ko te whakahere totokore, ko te whakahere hara, ko te whakahere mo te he, hei kai ma ratou; ma ratou ano nga mea katoa i oti rawa mai i roto i a Iharaira.
30 Na, ko te tuatahi o nga matamua katoa o nga mea katoa, me nga whakahere katoa o a koutou tini whakahere katoa, ma nga tohunga; me te tuatahi ano o ta koutou paraoa pokepoke, me hoatu e koutou ki te tohunga, kia tau ai he manaaki ki tou whare.
31 Kaua te tohunga e kai i te mea mate maori, i te mea ranei i haea, ahakoa manu, ahakoa kararehe.

New International Version
The Rooms for the Priests
42 Then the man led me northward into the outer court and brought me to the rooms(A) opposite the temple courtyard(B) and opposite the outer wall on the north side.(C) 2 The building whose door faced north was a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide.[a] 3 Both in the section twenty cubits[b] from the inner court and in the section opposite the pavement of the outer court, gallery(D) faced gallery at the three levels.(E) 4 In front of the rooms was an inner passageway ten cubits wide and a hundred cubits[c] long.[d] Their doors were on the north.(F) 5 Now the upper rooms were narrower, for the galleries took more space from them than from the rooms on the lower and middle floors of the building. 6 The rooms on the top floor had no pillars, as the courts had; so they were smaller in floor space than those on the lower and middle floors. 7 There was an outer wall parallel to the rooms and the outer court; it extended in front of the rooms for fifty cubits. 8 While the row of rooms on the side next to the outer court was fifty cubits long, the row on the side nearest the sanctuary was a hundred cubits long. 9 The lower rooms had an entrance(G) on the east side as one enters them from the outer court.
10 On the south side[e] along the length of the wall of the outer court, adjoining the temple courtyard(H) and opposite the outer wall, were rooms(I) 11 with a passageway in front of them. These were like the rooms on the north; they had the same length and width, with similar exits and dimensions. Similar to the doorways on the north 12 were the doorways of the rooms on the south. There was a doorway at the beginning of the passageway that was parallel to the corresponding wall extending eastward, by which one enters the rooms.
13 Then he said to me, “The north(J) and south rooms(K) facing the temple courtyard(L) are the priests’ rooms, where the priests who approach the Lord will eat the most holy offerings. There they will put the most holy offerings—the grain offerings,(M) the sin offerings[f](N) and the guilt offerings(O)—for the place is holy.(P) 14 Once the priests enter the holy precincts, they are not to go into the outer court until they leave behind the garments(Q) in which they minister, for these are holy. They are to put on other clothes before they go near the places that are for the people.(R)”
15 When he had finished measuring what was inside the temple area, he led me out by the east gate(S) and measured the area all around: 16 He measured the east side with the measuring rod; it was five hundred cubits.[g][h] 17 He measured the north side; it was five hundred cubits[i] by the measuring rod. 18 He measured the south side; it was five hundred cubits by the measuring rod. 19 Then he turned to the west side and measured; it was five hundred cubits by the measuring rod. 20 So he measured(T) the area(U) on all four sides. It had a wall around it,(V) five hundred cubits long and five hundred cubits wide,(W) to separate the holy from the common.(X)
God’s Glory Returns to the Temple
43 Then the man brought me to the gate facing east,(Y) 2 and I saw the glory of the God of Israel coming from the east. His voice was like the roar of rushing waters,(Z) and the land was radiant with his glory.(AA) 3 The vision I saw was like the vision I had seen when he[j] came to destroy the city and like the visions I had seen by the Kebar River, and I fell facedown. 4 The glory(AB) of the Lord entered the temple through the gate facing east.(AC) 5 Then the Spirit(AD) lifted me up(AE) and brought me into the inner court, and the glory(AF) of the Lord filled the temple.(AG)
6 While the man was standing beside me, I heard someone speaking to me from inside the temple. 7 He said: “Son of man, this is the place of my throne(AH) and the place for the soles of my feet. This is where I will live among the Israelites forever. The people of Israel will never again defile(AI) my holy name—neither they nor their kings—by their prostitution and the funeral offerings[k] for their kings at their death.[l](AJ) 8 When they placed their threshold next to my threshold and their doorposts beside my doorposts, with only a wall between me and them, they defiled my holy name by their detestable practices. So I destroyed them in my anger. 9 Now let them put away from me their prostitution and the funeral offerings for their kings, and I will live among them forever.(AK)
10 “Son of man, describe the temple to the people of Israel, that they may be ashamed(AL) of their sins. Let them consider its perfection, 11 and if they are ashamed of all they have done, make known to them the design of the temple—its arrangement, its exits and entrances—its whole design and all its regulations[m] and laws. Write these down before them so that they may be faithful to its design and follow all its regulations.(AM)
12 “This is the law of the temple: All the surrounding area(AN) on top of the mountain will be most holy.(AO) Such is the law of the temple.
The Great Altar Restored
13 “These are the measurements of the altar(AP) in long cubits,[n] that cubit being a cubit and a handbreadth: Its gutter is a cubit deep and a cubit wide, with a rim of one span[o] around the edge. And this is the height of the altar: 14 From the gutter on the ground up to the lower ledge that goes around the altar it is two cubits high, and the ledge is a cubit wide.[p] From this lower ledge to the upper ledge that goes around the altar it is four cubits high, and that ledge is also a cubit wide.[q] 15 Above that, the altar hearth(AQ) is four cubits high, and four horns(AR) project upward from the hearth. 16 The altar hearth is square, twelve cubits[r] long and twelve cubits wide.(AS) 17 The upper ledge(AT) also is square, fourteen cubits[s] long and fourteen cubits wide. All around the altar is a gutter of one cubit with a rim of half a cubit.[t] The steps(AU) of the altar face east.(AV)”
18 Then he said to me, “Son of man, this is what the Sovereign Lord says: These will be the regulations for sacrificing burnt offerings(AW) and splashing blood(AX) against the altar when it is built: 19 You are to give a young bull(AY) as a sin offering[u] to the Levitical priests of the family of Zadok,(AZ) who come near(BA) to minister before me, declares the Sovereign Lord. 20 You are to take some of its blood and put it on the four horns of the altar(BB) and on the four corners of the upper ledge(BC) and all around the rim, and so purify the altar(BD) and make atonement for it. 21 You are to take the bull for the sin offering and burn it in the designated part of the temple area outside the sanctuary.(BE)
22 “On the second day you are to offer a male goat without defect for a sin offering, and the altar is to be purified as it was purified with the bull. 23 When you have finished purifying it, you are to offer a young bull and a ram from the flock, both without defect.(BF) 24 You are to offer them before the Lord, and the priests are to sprinkle salt(BG) on them and sacrifice them as a burnt offering to the Lord.
25 “For seven days(BH) you are to provide a male goat daily for a sin offering; you are also to provide a young bull and a ram from the flock, both without defect.(BI) 26 For seven days they are to make atonement for the altar and cleanse it; thus they will dedicate it. 27 At the end of these days, from the eighth day(BJ) on, the priests are to present your burnt offerings(BK) and fellowship offerings(BL) on the altar. Then I will accept you, declares the Sovereign Lord.”
The Priesthood Restored
44 Then the man brought me back to the outer gate of the sanctuary, the one facing east,(BM) and it was shut. 2 The Lord said to me, “This gate is to remain shut. It must not be opened; no one may enter through it.(BN) It is to remain shut because the Lord, the God of Israel, has entered through it. 3 The prince himself is the only one who may sit inside the gateway to eat in the presence(BO) of the Lord. He is to enter by way of the portico of the gateway and go out the same way.(BP)”
4 Then the man brought me by way of the north gate(BQ) to the front of the temple. I looked and saw the glory of the Lord filling the temple(BR) of the Lord, and I fell facedown.(BS)
5 The Lord said to me, “Son of man, look carefully, listen closely and give attention to everything I tell you concerning all the regulations and instructions regarding the temple of the Lord. Give attention to the entrance(BT) to the temple and all the exits of the sanctuary.(BU) 6 Say to rebellious Israel,(BV) ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Enough of your detestable practices, people of Israel! 7 In addition to all your other detestable practices, you brought foreigners uncircumcised in heart(BW) and flesh into my sanctuary, desecrating my temple while you offered me food, fat and blood, and you broke my covenant.(BX) 8 Instead of carrying out your duty in regard to my holy things, you put others in charge of my sanctuary.(BY) 9 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: No foreigner uncircumcised in heart and flesh is to enter my sanctuary, not even the foreigners who live among the Israelites.(BZ)
10 “‘The Levites who went far from me when Israel went astray(CA) and who wandered from me after their idols must bear the consequences of their sin.(CB) 11 They may serve in my sanctuary, having charge of the gates of the temple and serving in it; they may slaughter the burnt offerings(CC) and sacrifices for the people and stand before the people and serve them.(CD) 12 But because they served them in the presence of their idols and made the people of Israel fall(CE) into sin, therefore I have sworn with uplifted hand(CF) that they must bear the consequences of their sin, declares the Sovereign Lord.(CG) 13 They are not to come near to serve me as priests or come near any of my holy things or my most holy offerings; they must bear the shame(CH) of their detestable practices.(CI) 14 And I will appoint them to guard the temple for all the work that is to be done in it.(CJ)
15 “‘But the Levitical priests, who are descendants of Zadok(CK) and who guarded my sanctuary when the Israelites went astray from me, are to come near to minister before me; they are to stand before me to offer sacrifices of fat(CL) and blood, declares the Sovereign Lord.(CM) 16 They alone are to enter my sanctuary; they alone are to come near my table(CN) to minister before me and serve me as guards.(CO)
17 “‘When they enter the gates of the inner court, they are to wear linen clothes;(CP) they must not wear any woolen garment while ministering at the gates of the inner court or inside the temple. 18 They are to wear linen turbans(CQ) on their heads and linen undergarments(CR) around their waists. They must not wear anything that makes them perspire.(CS) 19 When they go out into the outer court where the people are, they are to take off the clothes they have been ministering in and are to leave them in the sacred rooms, and put on other clothes, so that the people are not consecrated(CT) through contact with their garments.(CU)
20 “‘They must not shave(CV) their heads or let their hair grow long, but they are to keep the hair of their heads trimmed.(CW) 21 No priest is to drink wine when he enters the inner court.(CX) 22 They must not marry widows or divorced women; they may marry only virgins of Israelite descent or widows of priests.(CY) 23 They are to teach my people the difference between the holy and the common(CZ) and show them how to distinguish between the unclean and the clean.(DA)
24 “‘In any dispute, the priests are to serve as judges(DB) and decide it according to my ordinances. They are to keep my laws and my decrees for all my appointed festivals,(DC) and they are to keep my Sabbaths holy.(DD)
25 “‘A priest must not defile himself by going near a dead person; however, if the dead person was his father or mother, son or daughter, brother or unmarried sister, then he may defile himself.(DE) 26 After he is cleansed, he must wait seven days.(DF) 27 On the day he goes into the inner court of the sanctuary(DG) to minister in the sanctuary, he is to offer a sin offering[v](DH) for himself, declares the Sovereign Lord.
28 “‘I am to be the only inheritance(DI) the priests have. You are to give them no possession in Israel; I will be their possession. 29 They will eat(DJ) the grain offerings, the sin offerings and the guilt offerings; and everything in Israel devoted[w] to the Lord(DK) will belong to them.(DL) 30 The best of all the firstfruits(DM) and of all your special gifts will belong to the priests. You are to give them the first portion of your ground meal(DN) so that a blessing(DO) may rest on your household.(DP) 31 The priests must not eat anything, whether bird or animal, found dead(DQ) or torn by wild animals.(DR)

1 Ko te mea o te timatanga, ko ta matou i rongo ai, ko ta o matou kanohi i kite ai, ko ta matou i titiro atu ai, ko ta o matou ringaringa i whawha atu ai, ko nga mea o te Kupu o te ora;
2 I whakakitea mai hoki te ora, a kite ana matou, na ka whakaatu nei, ka kauwhau nei ki a koutou i te ora tonu, i tera i te Matua i mua, a kua whakakitea mai nei ki a matou;
3 Ko ta matou ra i kite ai, i rongo ai, e kauwhautia atu nei e matou ki a koutou, kia whakahoatia ai koutou ki a matou: na, ko to tatou whakahoanga kei te Matua, kei tana Tama hoki, kei a Ihu Karaiti.
4 Na ka tuhituhia atu nei enei mea e matou ki a koutou, kia tino nui ai to koutou hari.
5 Ko te korero ano tenei i rongo ai matou ki a ia, a ka korerotia atu nei e matou ki a koutou, na, he marama te Atua, kahore rawa hoki he pouri i a ia.
6 Ki te mea tatou e whakahoa ana tatou ki a ia, me te haere ano tatou i te pouri, e korero teka ana tatou, ehara hoki i te pono ta tatou e mahi nei;
7 Ki te haere ia tatou i te marama, me ia hoki e noho nei i te marama, na ka whakahoa tatou tetahi ki tetahi, e horoia ana ano o tatou hara katoa e nga toto o tana Tama, o Ihu Karaiti.
8 Ki te mea tatou kahore o tatou hara, e whakapohehe ana tatou i a tatou ano, a kahore te pono i roto i a tatou.
9 Ki te whaki tatou i o tatou hara, e pono ana ia, e tika ana, a ka murua e ia o tatou hara, ka horoia atu hoki o tatou he katoa.
10 Ki te mea tatou kahore tatou i hara, ka meinga ia he kaikorero teka, kahore hoki tana kupu i roto i a tatou.

The Incarnation of the Word of Life
1 That which was from the beginning,(A) which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes,(B) which we have looked at and our hands have touched(C)—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. 2 The life appeared;(D) we have seen it and testify to it,(E) and we proclaim to you the eternal life,(F) which was with the Father and has appeared to us. 3 We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard,(G) so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.(H) 4 We write this(I) to make our[a] joy complete.(J)
Light and Darkness, Sin and Forgiveness
5 This is the message we have heard(K) from him and declare to you: God is light;(L) in him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness,(M) we lie and do not live out the truth.(N) 7 But if we walk in the light,(O) as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all[b] sin.(P)
8 If we claim to be without sin,(Q) we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.(R) 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins(S) and purify us from all unrighteousness.(T) 10 If we claim we have not sinned,(U) we make him out to be a liar(V) and his word is not in us.(W)
