< Leviticus 20 >

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
2 Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel: If any man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers, that dwell in Israel, give of his seed to the idol Moloch, dying let him die: the people of the land shall stone him.
“Ko eni foki, ke ke lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, Ko ia fulipē ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pe ʻi he kau muli ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻi ʻIsileli, ʻoku ne foaki hono hako kia Moleki; ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia: ʻe tolongaki ia ʻaki ʻae maka ʻe he kakai ʻoe fonua.
3 And I will set my face against him: and I will cut him off from the midst of his people, because he hath given of his seed to Moloch, and hath defiled my sanctuary, and profaned my holy name.
Pea te u fakahangatonu hoku fofonga ki he tangata ko ia, ke motuhi ia mei hono kakai: ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene foaki ʻa hono hako kia Moleki, ke ʻuliʻi hoku faletapu, mo fakaongokoviʻi hoku huafa māʻoniʻoni.
4 And if the people of the land neglecting, and as it were little regarding my commandment, let alone the man that hath given of his seed to Moloch, and will not kill him:
Pea kapau ʻoku fufū honau mata ʻe he kakai ʻoe fonua mei he tangata, ʻi heʻene foaki hono hako kia Moleki, pea ʻikai tāmateʻi ia;
5 I will set my face against that man, and his kindred, and will cut off both him and all that consented with him, to commit fornication with Moloch, out of the midst of their people.
Pea te u fakahanga hoku fofonga ki he tangata ko ia, pea ki hono fale, pea ko ia, mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku fai hala ʻo muimui ʻiate ia, ke fai angahala mo Moleki, teu motuhi mei honau kakai.
6 The soul that shall go aside after magicians, and soothsayers, and shall commit fornication with them, I will set my face against that soul, and destroy it out of the midst of its people.
“Pea ko ia ʻoku tafoki kiate kinautolu ʻoku vaka ai ʻae ngaahi laumālie ʻuli, mo e kau taulafakafaʻahikehe, ke ʻalu holi kovi kiate kinautolu, te u fakahanga moʻoni hoku fofonga ki he tangata ko ia, pea teu motuhi ia mei hono kakai.
7 Sanctify yourselves, and be ye holy because I am the Lord your God.
“Ko ia mou fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻakimoutolu, pea ke mou māʻoniʻoni: he ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.
8 Keep my precepts, and do them. I am the Lord that sanctify you.
Pea ke mou tauhi ʻeku ngaahi fekau ʻo fai ki ai: Ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻakimoutolu.”
9 He that curseth his father, or mother, dying let him die: he hath cursed his father, and mother, let his blood be upon him.
He ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku kapeʻi ʻene tamai pe ko ʻene faʻē, ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia kuo ne kapeʻi ʻene tamai pe ko ʻene faʻē pea ʻe ʻiate ia pe hono toto.
10 If any man commit adultery with the wife of another, and defile his neighbour’s wife, let them be put to death, both the adulterer and the adulteress.
Pea ko e tangata ʻoku tonoʻi ʻae uafi ʻoe tangata ʻe tokotaha, ʻio, ko ia ʻoku tonoʻi ʻae uafi ʻo hono kaungāʻapi, ko e tangata tono fefine mo e fefine tono tangata, ʻe tāmateʻi moʻoni ʻakinaua.
11 If a man lie with his stepmother, and discover the nakedness of his father, let them both be put to death: their blood be upon them.
Ko e tangata ʻoku mohe mo e mali ʻo ʻene tamai kuo fakatelefua ʻe ia ʻa ʻene tamai: ʻe tāmateʻi ʻakinaua fakatouʻosi pe; ʻe ʻiate kinaua hona toto.
12 If any man lie with his daughter in law, let both die, because they have done a heinous crime: their blood be upon them.
Pea kapau ʻe mohe ʻae tangata mo hono ʻofefine ʻi he fono, ʻe tāmateʻi ʻakinaua fakatouʻosi pe: kuo na fai fakamaveuveu; ʻe ʻiate kinaua hona toto.
13 If any one lie with a man as with a woman, both have committed an abomination, let them be put to death: their blood be upon them.
Pea kapau ʻe mohe ha tangata mo e tangata, ʻo hangē ko ʻene mohe mo e fefine, kuo na fai fakalielia fakatouʻosi pe; ke tāmateʻi moʻoni ʻakinaua; ʻe ʻiate kinaua hona toto.
14 If any man after marrying the daughter, marry her mother, he hath done a heinous crime: he shall be burnt alive with them: neither shall so great an abomination remain in the midst of you.
Pea kapau ʻoku ʻomi ʻe ha tangata mo hono mali ʻae faʻē ʻa hono mali kena mali, ko e meʻa kovi ia: ʻe tutu ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae afi, ʻaia mo kinaua; koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha kovi ʻiate kimoutolu.
15 He that shall copulate with any beast or cattle, dying let him die, the beast also ye shall kill.
Pea kapau ʻe mohe ha tangata mo e manu, ʻe tāmateʻi moʻoni ia: pea ke mou tāmateʻi ʻae manu.
16 The woman that shall lie under any beast, shall be killed together with the same: their blood be upon them.
Pea kapau ʻe ʻunuʻunu atu ha fefine ki ha manu, pea tokoto ki ai ia, ʻe tāmateʻi ʻae fefine, mo e manu: ʻe tāmateʻi moʻoni ʻakinaua; ʻe ʻiate kinaua hona toto.
17 If any man take his sister, the daughter of his father, or the daughter of his mother, and see her nakedness, and she behold her brother’s shame: they have committed a crime: they shall be slain, in the sight of their people, because they have discovered one another’s nakedness, and they shall bear their iniquity.
Pea kapau ʻe ʻave ʻe ha tangata hono tuofefine, ko e ʻofefine ʻo ʻene tamai, pe ko e tama ʻa ʻene faʻē, ʻo mamata ki heʻene telefua, pea mamata ia ki heʻene telefua ʻaʻana; ko e meʻa kovi ia: pea ʻe motuhi ʻakinaua ʻi he ʻao ʻo hona kakai: kuo tatala ʻo fakatelefua ʻa hono tuofefine; ʻe fua ʻe ia ʻene hia.
18 If any man lie with a woman in her flowers, and uncover her nakedness, and she open the fountain of her blood, both shall be destroyed out of the midst of their people.
Pea kapau ʻe mohe ha tangata mo e fefine ʻoku ʻiate ia hono mahaki, pea tatala hono mahaki; kuo ne fakatelefua hono mahaki, pea kuo tatala ʻe ia ʻae mata ʻo hono toto: pea ʻe motuhi ʻakinaua fakatouʻosi mei hona kakai.
19 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy aunt by thy mother, and of thy aunt by thy father: he that doth this, hath uncovered the shame of his own flesh, both shall bear their iniquity.
Pea ʻoua naʻa ke fakatelefua ʻae tokoua ʻo hoʻo faʻē, pe ko e tuofefine ʻo hoʻo tamai: he ko ia ʻoku ne [fai pehē ]ʻoku fakatelefua hono kāinga ofi: te na fua ʻena hia.
20 If any mall lie with the wife of his uncle by the father, or of his uncle by the mother, and uncover the shame of his near akin, both shall bear their sin: they shall die without children.
Pea kapau ʻe mohe ha tangata mo e uaifi ʻoe tokoua ʻo ʻene tamai, kuo fakatelefua ʻe ia ʻa hono tuʻasina: te na fua ʻena angahala: te na mate taʻehafānau.
21 He that marrieth his brother’s wife, doth an unlawful thing, he hath uncovered his brother’s nakedness: they shall be without children.
Pea kapau ʻe maʻu ʻe ha tangata ʻae uaifi ʻa hono tokoua, ko e meʻa taʻemaʻa ia: kuo fakatelefua ʻa hono tokoua; te na mate taʻehafānau.
22 Keep my laws and my judgments, and do them: lest the land into which you are to enter to dwell therein, vomit you also out.
“Ko ia ke mou tauhi ai ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ni, mo ʻeku ngaahi fekau, ʻo fai ki ai: telia naʻa lua ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻe he fonua ʻoku ou ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ki ai.
23 Walk not after the laws of the nations, which I will cast out before you. For they have done all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
Pea ʻe ʻikai te mou fai ki he ngaahi anga ʻoe puleʻanga, ʻaia ʻoku ou kapusi mei homou ʻao: he kuo nau fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, pea ko ia kuo u fehiʻa ai kiate kinautolu.
24 But to you I say: Possess their land which I will give you for an inheritance, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am the Lord your God, who have separated you from other people.
Ka kuo u lea kiate kimoutolu, Te mou maʻu honau fonua, pea te u ʻatu ia kiate kimoutolu ke mou maʻu ia, ko e fonua ʻoku mahu tāfea ʻi he huʻahuhu mo e honi: Ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ʻaia kuo u vaheʻi ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai kehe.
25 Therefore do you also separate the clean beast from the unclean, and the clean fowl from the unclean: defile not your souls with beasts, or birds, or any things that move on the earth, and which I have shewn you to be unclean.
Ko ia ke mou vaheʻi ʻae fanga manu maʻa mo e taʻemaʻa, pea lau kehe ʻae fanga manu taʻemaʻa ʻoku kapakau mo e maʻa: pea ʻoua naʻa mou fakalieliaʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he manu, pe ha manu kapakau, pe ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku totolo ʻi he kelekele, ʻaia kuo vaheʻi ia ʻiate kimoutolu ko e taʻemaʻa.
26 You shall be holy unto me, because I the Lord am holy, and I have separated you from other people, that you should be mine.
Pea te mou māʻoniʻoni kiate au: he ko au Sihova ʻoku ou māʻoniʻoni, pea kuo u fakamavahe ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai kehe, koeʻuhi ke ʻoʻoku ʻakimoutolu.
27 A man, or woman, in whom there is a pythonical or divining spirit, dying let them die: they shall stone them: their blood be upon them.
“Ko e tangata foki, pe ko e fefine ʻoku vaka ai ʻae laumālie ʻuli, pea ko e taulafakafaʻahikehe, ʻe tāmateʻi moʻoni ia: ʻe tolongaki ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae maka: ʻe ʻiate kinautolu honau toto.
