Exodus 22
1 “If a man steals an ox or a sheep and slaughters or sells it, he must repay five oxen for an ox and four sheep for a sheep.
“Kapau ʻe kaihaʻa ʻe ha tangata ha pulu pe ha sipi, mo tāmateʻi ia, pe fakatau ia; te ne totongi ʻae pulu ʻaki ʻae pulu ʻe nima, mo e sipi ʻe taha ʻaki ʻae sipi ʻe fā.
2 If a thief is caught breaking in and is beaten to death, no one shall be guilty of bloodshed.
Kapau ʻe maʻu[poʻuli ]ha kaihaʻa lolotonga ʻene fai, pea taaʻi ia pea mate, ʻe ʻikai lilingi ha toto koeʻuhi ko ia.
3 But if it happens after sunrise, there is guilt for his bloodshed. A thief must make full restitution; if he has nothing, he himself shall be sold for his theft.
Kapau kuo ʻalu hake ʻae laʻā kiate ia, ʻe ʻikai teʻia ia: ka te ne ʻatu hono totongi kotoa: kapau ʻoku ʻikai haʻa ne meʻa, pehē ʻe fakatau ia koeʻuhi ko ʻene kaihaʻa.
4 If what was stolen is actually found alive in his possession—whether ox or donkey or sheep—he must pay back double.
Kapau ʻoku ʻilo pau ʻene kaihaʻa ʻi hono nima ʻoku kei moʻui, pe ko ha pulu, pe ha ʻasi, pe ha sipi; ʻe totongi ʻaki ia ʻae ua.
5 If a man grazes his livestock in a field or vineyard and allows them to stray so that they graze in someone else’s field, he must make restitution from the best of his own field or vineyard.
“Kapau ʻe fai ʻe ha tangata ke keina ha ngoue, pe ha ngoue vaine, ʻo ne tuku ki ai ʻene manu, ke kai ʻi he ngoue ʻae tangata kehe: ʻe totongi ki ai ia ʻaki hono fua lelei ʻo ʻene ngoue, mo e lelei ʻo ʻene ngoue vaine.
6 If a fire breaks out and spreads to thornbushes so that it consumes stacked or standing grain, or the whole field, the one who started the fire must make full restitution.
“Kapau ʻe tupu ha afi, pea hoko ki he ʻakau talatala, pea vela ai ʻae ngaahi fokotuʻunga uite, pe ko e ngoue, ʻo ʻauha ai; ko ia naʻa ne tutu ʻae afi te ne totongi moʻoni.
7 If a man gives his neighbor money or goods for safekeeping and they are stolen from the neighbor’s house, the thief, if caught, must pay back double.
“Kapau ʻe tuku ʻe ha tangata ʻae ngaahi paʻanga, pe ha meʻa ki hono kaungāʻapi, ke ne vakai ki ai, pea kapau ʻe kaihaʻasia ia mei he fale ʻoe tangata: kapau ʻe ʻilo ʻae kaihaʻa, tuku ke ne totongi ʻaki ʻae ua.
8 If the thief is not found, the owner of the house must appear before the judges to determine whether he has taken his neighbor’s property.
Kapau ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ʻae kaihaʻa, pea ʻe toki ʻomi ʻae ʻeiki ʻoe fale ki he kau fakamaau, ke ʻilo, pe kuo ne ai hono nima ki he meʻa ʻa hono kaungāʻapi.
9 In all cases of illegal possession of an ox, a donkey, a sheep, a garment, or any lost item that someone claims, ‘This is mine,’ both parties shall bring their cases before the judges. The one whom the judges find guilty must pay back double to his neighbor.
“ʻI he ngaahi anga fakakaihaʻa kotoa pē, ʻoku kau ki he pulu, pe ki he ʻasi, pe ko e sipi, pe ki he kofu, pe ki he meʻa kuo mole, ʻaia ʻoku lea fakapapau ki ai ha tokotaha ʻo pehē ko ʻene meʻa, ʻe fakahā fakatouʻosi pe ʻena meʻa ki he kau fakamaau; pea ko ia ʻe tuku ko e halaia ʻe he kau fakamaau, te ne totongi ke tuʻo ua ki hono kaungāʻapi.
10 If a man gives a donkey, an ox, a sheep, or any other animal to be cared for by his neighbor, but it dies or is injured or stolen while no one is watching,
“Kapau ʻe tuku ʻe ha tangata ki hono kaungāʻapi, ha ʻasi, pe ha pulu, pe ha sipi, pe ha manu ʻe taha ke ne tauhi; pea mate ia, pe lavea, pe fakahēʻi ke mamaʻo, kae ʻikai ha tangata kuo mamata ki ai;
11 an oath before the LORD shall be made between the parties to determine whether or not the man has taken his neighbor’s property. The owner must accept the oath and require no restitution.
Pea ʻe fuakava ʻakinaua ki he ʻEiki, ʻo pehē naʻe ʻikai te ne mafao atu hono nima ki he meʻa ʻa hono kaungāʻapi; pea ko ia ʻoku ʻaʻana ʻae meʻa te ne tui ki ai, pea ʻe ʻikai totongi ia.
12 But if the animal was actually stolen from the neighbor, he must make restitution to the owner.
Pea kapau kuo kaihaʻasi meiate ia, pea te ne ʻatu ʻae totongi kiate ia ʻoku ʻaʻana ia.
13 If the animal was torn to pieces, he shall bring it as evidence; he need not make restitution for the torn carcass.
Kapau kuo mahaehae, ʻoku lelei ʻene ʻomi ia ke fakamoʻoni, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne totongi ʻaia kuo mahaehae.
14 If a man borrows an animal from his neighbor and it is injured or dies while its owner is not present, he must make full restitution.
“Pea kapau ʻe nō ʻe ha tangata ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻi hono kaungāʻapi, pea hoko ʻo lavea ia, pe mate, kae ʻikai ʻi ai ʻaia ʻoku ʻaʻana, ko e moʻoni te ne totongi ia.
15 If the owner was present, no restitution is required. If the animal was rented, the fee covers the loss.
Pea kapau naʻe ʻi ai ia ʻaia ʻoku ʻaʻana, pea ʻe ʻikai totongi ia; kapau ko e ngāue totongi, naʻe haʻu ia ko e totongi.
16 If a man seduces a virgin who is not pledged in marriage and sleeps with her, he must pay the full dowry for her to be his wife.
“Pea kapau ʻe fakatauveleʻi ʻe ha tangata ha taʻahine ʻoku teʻeki poloʻi pea na mohe, ko e moʻoni te ne vahe koloa maʻana, pea hoko ko hono mali.
17 If her father absolutely refuses to give her to him, the man still must pay an amount comparable to the bridal price of a virgin.
Pea kapau ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito tuku ia ʻe heʻene tamai kiate ia, pea ke totongi paʻanga ia ʻo fakatatau ki he koloa fakatau ʻae kau taʻahine.
18 You must not allow a sorceress to live.
“ʻOua naʻa ke tuku ke moʻui ʻae fefine taulafaʻahikehe.
19 Whoever lies with an animal must surely be put to death.
“Ko ia ʻe mohe mo e manu ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia.
20 If anyone sacrifices to any god other than the LORD alone, he must be set apart for destruction.
“Ko ia ʻoku feilaulau ki ha ʻotua kehe, ka ʻoku ʻikai kia Sihova pe, ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia.
21 You must not exploit or oppress a foreign resident, for you yourselves were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
“ʻE ʻikai te ke fakamamahiʻi ha muli, pe taʻomia ia, he naʻa mou nofo ʻi ʻIsipite ko e kau muli.
22 You must not mistreat any widow or orphan.
“ʻE ʻikai te mou fakamamahi ha fefine kuo pekia hono mali, pe ko e tamasiʻi tuēnoa.
23 If you do mistreat them, and they cry out to Me in distress, I will surely hear their cry.
Kapau te ke tautea ʻakinautolu ʻi ha meʻa, pea nau tangi mai kiate au, ko e moʻoni te u ongoʻi ʻenau tangi;
24 My anger will be kindled, and I will kill you with the sword; then your wives will become widows and your children will be fatherless.
Pea ʻe tupu ʻo lahi ai ʻeku houhau, pea te u tāmateʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae heletā; pea ʻe hoko homou ngaahi mali ko e kau paea, mo hoʻomou fānau ko e tamai mate.
25 If you lend money to one of My people among you who is poor, you must not act as a creditor to him; you are not to charge him interest.
“Kapau ʻoku tuku atu hoʻo koloa ki ha niʻihi ʻi hoku kakai masiva ʻoku ofi kiate koe, ʻoua naʻa ke fai kiate ia hangē ha tangi koloa totongi, pea ʻoua naʻa ke tala kiate ia ʻae totongi.
26 If you take your neighbor’s cloak as collateral, return it to him by sunset,
Kapau ʻoku ke toʻo ʻae kofu ʻo ho kaungāʻapi ko e fakamoʻoni, ke ke toe ʻatu ia kiate ia ʻo feʻunga mo e tō ʻae laʻā.
27 because his cloak is the only covering he has for his body. What else will he sleep in? And if he cries out to Me, I will hear, for I am compassionate.
He ko hono kofu pe ia, ko e kofu ʻo hono kili: pea ko e hā ʻe mohe ai ia? Pea ka tangi ia kiate au, pea ʻe pehē, Te u ongoʻi, he ʻoku ou angaʻofa.
28 You must not blaspheme God or curse the ruler of your people.
“ʻOua naʻa ke lauʻikovi ʻae kau fakamaau, pe kapeʻi ʻae pule ʻa hoʻo kakai.
29 You must not hold back offerings from your granaries or vats. You are to give Me the firstborn of your sons.
“ʻOua naʻa ke fakatuai ʻi he ʻatu hoʻo ngaahi ʻuluaki fua kuo motuʻa, mo e meʻainu; ko e ʻuluaki ʻi ho ngaahi foha te ke foaki kia Sihova.
30 You shall do likewise with your cattle and your sheep. Let them stay with their mothers for seven days, but on the eighth day you are to give them to Me.
Pea ke fai pehē pe foki ki hoʻo fanga pulu pea mo hoʻo fanga sipi: ʻe nofo ʻae ʻuhiki mo ʻene faʻē ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu: ʻi hono ʻaho valu te ke foaki mai ia kiate au.
31 You are to be My holy people. You must not eat the meat of a mauled animal found in the field; you are to throw it to the dogs.
“Pea te mou ʻiate au ko e kau tangata māʻoniʻoni: pea ʻe ʻikai te mou kai ha kakano kuo haehae ʻe he fanga manu ʻi he vao; ka te mou lī ia ki he fanga kulī.
