< Deuteronomy 14 >

1 You are the children of the LORD your God: you shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
“Ko e fānau ʻakimoutolu ʻa Sihova ko homou ʻOtua: ʻoua naʻa mou tafaʻi ʻakimoutolu, pe fafai homou foʻi laʻē koeʻuhi ko e pekia.
2 For you are an holy people to the LORD your God, and the LORD has chosen you to be a peculiar people to himself, above all the nations that are on the earth.
He ko e kakai māʻoniʻoni koe kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, pea kuo fili koe ʻe Sihova ke hoko ko e kakai ʻofeina kiate ia, ʻo lahi hake ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he funga ʻo māmani.
3 You shall not eat any abominable thing.
“ʻOua naʻa ke kai ha meʻa fakalielia ʻe taha.
4 These are the beasts which you shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,
Ko eni ʻae fanga manu ke mou kai: ko e pulu, mo e sipi, pea mo e kosi.
5 The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the chamois.
Ko e haʻate, mo e ʻanitelope, mo e tia mo e kosi kai vao, mo e tisone, mo e pulu ʻoe vao, mo e semela.
6 And every beast that parts the hoof, and separates the cleft into two claws, and chews the cud among the beasts, that you shall eat.
Pea mo e manu kotoa pē ʻoku mavaeua ʻae ʻaofivaʻe, mo vahevahe ke ua hono pesipesi, mo lamu ʻangaua ʻene kai ʻi he fanga manu, ko ia ke mou kai.
7 Nevertheless these you shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the cloven hoof; as the camel, and the hare, and the coney: for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; therefore they are unclean to you.
Ka ko ia ʻi ai ʻoku lamu ʻangaua ʻene kai, pea mo ia ʻoku mavaeua ʻae vaʻe; ʻo hangē ko e kāmeli, mo e hea, mo e lāpisi: he ʻoku nau lamu ʻangaua ʻenau kai, ka ʻoku ʻikai mavaeua honau ʻaofivaʻe: ko ia ia ʻoku taʻemaʻa kiate kimoutolu.
8 And the swine, because it divides the hoof, yet chews not the cud, it is unclean to you: you shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcass.
Pea ko e puaka, ʻoku vahevahe hono pesipesi, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ne lamu ʻangaua ʻene kai, ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia kiate kimoutolu: ʻoua naʻa mou kai honau kakano, pe ala ki honau sino mate.
9 These you shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall you eat:
“Ko eni ia ʻi he meʻa moʻui kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi he vai te mou kai: ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku kaponga mo ʻuno te mou kai:
10 And whatever has not fins and scales you may not eat; it is unclean to you.
Pea ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻikai kaponga mo ʻuno ʻoua naʻa mou kai: ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia kiate kimoutolu.
11 Of all clean birds you shall eat.
“ʻI he manu maʻa kotoa pē ʻoku kapakau te mou kai.
12 But these are they of which you shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
Ka ko kinautolu ni ʻoua naʻa mou kai: ko e ʻikale mo e ʻosifalesi mo e ʻosipale,
13 And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind,
Mo e kaite, mo e volita ʻi hono faʻahinga,
14 And every raven after his kind,
Mo e leveni kotoa pē ʻi hono faʻahinga,
15 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
Mo e lulu, mo e taiseni ʻoe poʻuli, mo e kuko, mo e taiseni ʻi hono faʻahinga.
16 The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan,
Ko e peka, mo e lulu lahi, mo e suani,
17 And the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the cormorant,
Mo e lofa, mo e sia ʻikale, mo e komolanite,
18 And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
Mo e sitoaki, mo e motuku ʻi hono ngaahi faʻahinga, mo e lapiuingi, mo e pekalu.
19 And every creeping thing that flies is unclean to you: they shall not be eaten.
Mo e ngaahi meʻa totolo kotoa pē ʻoku puna, ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia kiate kimoutolu: ʻoua naʻa kai ia.
20 But of all clean fowls you may eat.
Ka ko e ngaahi manu kapakau kotoa pē ʻoku maʻa ke mou kai.
21 You shall not eat of anything that dies of itself: you shall give it to the stranger that is in your gates, that he may eat it; or you may sell it to an alien: for you are an holy people to the LORD your God. You shall not seethe a kid in his mother’s milk.
“ʻOua naʻa mou kai ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku mate mahaki pe; ke ke ʻatu ia ki he muli ʻoku ʻi ho lotoʻā, koeʻuhi ke ne kai ia; pea ke fakatau ia ki he muli: he ko e kakai māʻoniʻoni koe kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua. ʻOua naʻa ke haka ʻae ʻuhikiʻi manu ʻi he huhuʻa ʻo ʻene faʻē.
22 You shall truly tithe all the increase of your seed, that the field brings forth year by year.
Ke ke tukuhau moʻoni ʻaki hono tupu kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo tenga, ʻaia ʻoku tupu ʻi he ngoue ʻi he taʻu tuku fakaholo.
23 And you shall eat before the LORD your God, in the place which he shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of your corn, of your wine, and of your oil, and the firstborn of your herds and of your flocks; that you may learn to fear the LORD your God always.
Pea ke kai ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻi he potu ʻaia ʻe fili ʻe ia ke tuku ki ai hono huafa, hono vahe hongofulu ʻo hoʻo uite, mo hoʻo uaine, pea mo hoʻo lolo, mo e ngaahi ʻuluaki fānau ʻo hoʻo fanga manu lalahi, pea ʻi hoʻo fanga manu siʻi; koeʻuhi ke ke ʻilo ke manavahē maʻuaipē kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.
24 And if the way be too long for you, so that you are not able to carry it; or if the place be too far from you, which the LORD your God shall choose to set his name there, when the LORD your God has blessed you:
Pea kapau ʻoku lōloa fau ʻae hala kiate koe, ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ai te ke faʻa fua ia ki ai; pe ʻoku mamaʻo ʻaupito meiate koe ʻae potu ʻaia ʻe fili ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ke tuku ki ai hono huafa, ʻi he hili hono tāpuakiʻi koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua:
25 Then shall you turn it into money, and bind up the money in your hand, and shall go to the place which the LORD your God shall choose:
Te ke toki maʻu ʻaki ia ʻae paʻanga, pea ke nonoʻo ʻae paʻanga ʻi ho nima, pea ke ʻalu ki he potu ʻaia ʻe fili ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua:
26 And you shall bestow that money for whatever your soul lusts after, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever your soul desires: and you shall eat there before the LORD your God, and you shall rejoice, you, and your household,
Pea ke ʻatu ʻae ngaahi paʻanga ko ia ki he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ke holi ki ai, ʻae fanga pulu, pe ko e sipi, pe ko e uaine, pe ko e inu mālohi, pe ko e meʻa ʻoku ke holi ki ai; pea te ke kai ai ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, pea te ke fiefia, ʻa koe, pea mo ho kaungā nofoʻanga,
27 And the Levite that is within your gates; you shall not forsake him; for he has no part nor inheritance with you.
Pea mo e Livai ʻoku ʻi ho lotoʻā ʻoua naʻa ke liʻaki ia; he ʻoku ʻikai hano vahe pe tofiʻa mo kimoutolu.
28 At the end of three years you shall bring forth all the tithe of your increase the same year, and shall lay it up within your gates:
“ʻI he ngataʻanga ʻo hono tolu taʻu, te ke ʻomi ʻae vahe hongofulu kotoa pē kuo tupu kiate koe ʻi he taʻu ko ia, pea te ke fokotuʻu ia ʻi ho lotoʻā:
29 And the Levite, (because he has no part nor inheritance with you, ) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within your gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the LORD your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.
Pea ko e Livai, (koe meʻa ʻi he ʻikai hano vāhenga pe tofiʻa fakataha mo koe, ) mo e muli, mo e tamai mate, mo e uitou, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ho ngaahi lotoʻā, ʻe haʻu ia, ʻo kai pea fiemālie; koeʻuhi ke tāpuakiʻi koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻi he ngaahi ngāue kotoa pē ʻa ho nima ʻaia ʻoku ke fai.
