< Leviticus 24 >

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
2 Instruct the sons of Israel, so that they may bring to you clear oil from the purest olives, in order to supply the lamps continuously
Fekau ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi kenau ʻomi kiate koe ʻae lolo ʻolive lelei kuo tuki ki he maama, koeʻuhi ke ulo lelei maʻuaipē ʻae maama.
3 outside the veil of the testimony in the tabernacle of the covenant. And Aaron shall place these, from evening until morning, before the Lord, as a perpetual worship and ritual in your generations.
‌ʻE teuteu ia ʻe ʻElone ʻituʻa ʻi he puipui ʻoe fuakava ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, mei he efiafi ki he pongipongi ʻe fai maʻuaipē ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova; ko e fekau fai maʻu pe ia ʻi homou toʻutangata kotoa pē.
4 They shall be placed upon the most pure candlestick in the sight of the Lord always.
Ke te u maʻuaipē ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi foʻi maama ki he tuʻunga maama tapu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
5 You shall also receive fine wheat flour, and you shall bake twelve loaves from it, each loaf of which shall have two-tenths.
Pea ke toʻo ʻae mahoaʻa lelei, ʻo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae foʻi mā ʻe hongofulu ma ua: ʻe ʻai ʻae oma ʻe ua ʻi he foʻi mā pe taha.
6 And you shall arrange them, six on each side, upon the most pure table before the Lord.
Pea te ke fokotuʻu ia ʻi he ʻotu ʻe ua, ke taki ono ʻi he ʻotu pe taha, ki he palepale māʻoniʻoni ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
7 And you shall place upon them the clearest frankincense, so that the bread may be a memorial of oblation for the Lord.
Pea te ke ʻai ki he ʻotu fakatouʻosi pe ʻae laipeno moʻonia, koeʻuhi ke ʻi he mā ia ko e meʻa fakamanatu, ʻio, ko e feilaulau kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae afi kia Sihova.
8 On each Sabbath, they shall be changed before the Lord, having been received from the sons of Israel as an everlasting covenant.
‌ʻE ʻai ia ʻo teuteu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻo fai maʻu pe ʻi he Sāpate kotoa pē, kuo toʻo ia mei he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he fuakava ʻoku taʻengata.
9 And they shall be for Aaron and his sons, so that they may eat these in the holy place; for it is the Holy of holies from the sacrifices of the Lord, as a perpetual right.
Pea ʻe ʻia ʻElone ia mo hono ngaahi foha; pea kenau kai ia ʻi he potu māʻoniʻoni: he ko e meʻa māʻoniʻoni lahi kiate ia ʻi he ngaahi feilaulau kia Sihova kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae afi ʻi he fekau tuʻumaʻu.
10 Then, behold, the son of an Israelite woman, whom she had born of an Egyptian man among the sons of Israel, going out, was quarreling in the camp with a man of Israel.
Pea naʻe ʻalu kituaʻā mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻae tama ʻae fefine ʻIsileli, ka ko ʻene tamai ko e tangata ʻIsipite; pea ko e tama ʻae fefine ʻIsileli, mo e tangata ʻIsileli, naʻa na fekuki fakataha ʻi he ʻapitanga:
11 And when he had blasphemed the name, and had cursed it, he was led to Moses. (Now his mother was called Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri from the tribe of Dan.)
Pea naʻe kape ʻae tama ʻae fefine ʻIsileli ki he huafa ʻo Sihova ʻo lea kovi. Pea naʻa nau ʻomi ia kia Mōsese, (pea ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē, ko Selomiti, ko e ʻofefine ʻo Tipili ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo Tani: )
12 And they sent him to prison, until they might know what the Lord would command,
Pea naʻa nau tuku haʻisia ia, ke ʻoua ke nau ʻilo ʻae finangalo ʻo Sihova ki ai.
13 who spoke to Moses,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
14 saying: Lead away the blasphemer beyond the camp, and let all who heard him place their hands upon his head, and let the entire people stone him.
“Ko ia kuo kape, ʻomi ia kituaʻā mei he ʻapitanga; pea ko kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe fanongo ki ai ke hilifaki honau nima ki hono ʻulu, pea ke tolongaki ia ʻe he fakataha kotoa pē ʻaki ʻae maka.
15 And you shall say to the sons of Israel: The man who curses his God shall bear his sin,
Pea ke lea koe ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, Ko ia ʻoku kapeʻi hono ʻOtua ʻe fua ʻe ia ʻene angahala.
16 and whoever will have blasphemed the name of the Lord shall be put to death. The entire multitude shall overwhelm him with stones, whether he be a citizen or a sojourner. Whoever blasphemes the name of the Lord shall be put to death.
Pea ko ia ʻoku ne kapeʻi ʻae huafa ʻo Sihova, ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia, ʻe tolongaki ia ʻaki ʻae maka ʻe he kakai kotoa pē: ko e muli ia pe ko ia kuo tupu ʻi he fonua, ʻoka kapeʻi ʻe ia ʻae huafa ʻo Sihova ʻe tāmateʻi ia.
17 Whoever will have struck and killed a man shall be put to death.
“Pea ko ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ha tangata ʻe tāmateʻi moʻoni ia.
18 Whoever will have struck down an animal shall repay its equivalent, that is, a life for a life.
Pea ko ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ha manu ʻe totongi ke tatau ia; ko e manu ki he manu.
19 Whoever will have inflicted a blemish on any of his citizens, just as he has done, so shall it be done to him:
“Pea kapau ʻe fakameleʻi ʻe ha tangata hono kaungāʻapi ʻe fai kiate ia ʻo hangē ko ia kuo ne fai
20 fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, shall he repay. Whatever degree of blemish he has inflicted, so shall he be compelled to suffer.
Ko e lavea ki he lavea, ko e mata ki he mata, ko e nifo ki he nifo: ʻo hangē ko ʻene fakameleʻi ha tangata, ʻe pehē pe hono fai kiate ia.
21 Whoever strikes down a beast, shall repay another. Whoever strikes a man shall be punished.
Pea ko ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ha manu, ʻe ʻatu ke tatau ia: pea ko ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ha tangata, ʻe tāmateʻi ia.
22 Let there be equal judgment among you, whether it is a sojourner or a citizen who will have sinned. For I am the Lord your God.
Ke mou maʻu ʻae fono pe taha, ki he muli, mo ia ʻoku ʻi homou fonua: he ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.”
23 And Moses spoke to the sons of Israel. And they led away him who had blasphemed, beyond the camp, and they overwhelmed him with stones. And the sons of Israel did just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Mōsese ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi kenau ʻomi ʻaia naʻe kape kituaʻā mei he ʻapitanga, ʻo tolongaki ʻaki ia ʻae maka. Pea naʻe fai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.
