< Exodus 20 >

1 And God spoke all these words, saying,
Pea naʻe folofolaʻaki ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi folofola ni kotoa pē, ʻo pehē,
2 I am the Lord thy God, who have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
“Ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, kuo u ʻomi koe mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, mei he fale ʻoe pōpula.
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
“ʻOua naʻa ke maʻu mo au ha ʻotua kehe ʻi hoku ʻao.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thyself any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
“ʻOua naʻa ke ngaohi kiate koe ha fakatātā, pe ha meʻa fakatatau ʻe taha ʻi ha meʻa ʻi he langi ʻi ʻolunga, pe ha meʻa ʻoku ʻi he fonua ʻi lalo ni, pe ki ha meʻa ʻoku ʻi he vai ʻi he lalo fonua:
5 Thou shalt not bow thyself down to them, nor serve them; for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
“ʻOua naʻa ke punou hifo koe kiate kinautolu, pe tauhi ki ai: he ko au Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ko e ʻOtua fuaʻa au, ʻoku ou totongi ʻae hia ʻae ngaahi tamai ki he fānau, ʻo aʻu ki hono tolu mo hono fā ʻoe toʻutangata ʻokinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate au;
6 And showing mercy unto the thousandth generation of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
Pea u fakahā ʻae ʻaloʻofa ki he ngaahi toko afe ʻokinautolu ʻoku ʻofa kiate au mo tauhi ʻeku ngaahi fekau.
7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
“ʻOua naʻa ke takuanoa ʻae huafa ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua; koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai lau ʻe Sihova ko e taʻehalaia ia, ʻaia ʻoku ne takuanoa hono huafa.
8 Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy.
“Manatu ki he ʻaho Sāpate, ke tauhi ia ke māʻoniʻoni.
9 Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work.
Ko e ʻaho ʻe ono ke ke ngāue ai, ʻo fai ai hoʻo ngāue kotoa pē:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath in honor of the Lord thy God; on it thou shalt not do any work, neither thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates;
Ka ko hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho ko e Sāpate ia ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua: ʻoua naʻa ke fai ʻi ai ha ngāue ʻe taha, ʻa koe, pe ko ho foha, pe ko ho ʻofefine, ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, pe ko hoʻo kaunanga, pe ko hoʻo fanga manu, pe ko e muli ʻoku nofo ʻi ho lotoʻā;
11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
He naʻe ngaohi ʻe Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ʻe ono, ʻae langi, mo e fonua, mo e tahi, mo e ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai, pea ne mālōlō ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho: ko ia naʻe tāpuakiʻi ai ʻe Sihova ʻae ʻaho Sāpate ʻo ne fakatapui ia.
12 Honor thy father and thy mother; in order that thy days may be prolonged upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
“Fakaʻapaʻapa ki hoʻo tamai mo hoʻo faʻē: koeʻuhi ke fuoloa ho ngaahi ʻaho ʻi he fonua ʻoku foaki ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua kiate koe.
13 Thou shalt not kill.
“ʻOua naʻa ke fakapō.
14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
“ʻOua naʻa ke tono fefine.
15 Thou shalt not steal.
“ʻOua naʻa ke kaihaʻa.
16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.
‌ʻOua naʻa ke tukuakiʻi ʻa ho kaungāʻapi.
17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor's.
“ʻOua naʻa ke manumanu ki he fale ʻo ho kaungāʻapi, ʻoua naʻa ke manumanu ki he mali ʻo ho kaungāʻapi, pe ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki, pe ki heʻene kaunanga, pe ki heʻene fanga pulu, pe ki heʻene asi, pe ki ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku ʻa ho kaungāʻapi.
18 And all the people perceived the thunders, and the lightnings, and the sound of the cornet, and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it, they removed trembling, and stood afar off.
Pea naʻe mamata ʻae kakai kotoa pē ki he ngaahi mana, mo e ngaahi ʻuhila, mo e longoaʻa lahi ʻoe meʻa lea, mo e kohu ʻoe moʻunga: pea ʻi heʻenau mamata ki ai, naʻa nau holomui, ʻo tuʻu mai mei he mamaʻo.
19 And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear; but let not God speak with us, lest we die.
Pea naʻa nau lea kia Mōsese, “Ke ke lea koe kiate kimautolu, pea te mau tokanga ki ai: kaeʻoua naʻa folofola ʻae ʻOtua kiate kimautolu, telia naʻa mau mate.
20 And Moses said unto the people, Fear not; for in order to prove you, did God come, and in order that his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not.
Pea talaange ʻe Mōsese ki he kakai, “ʻOua ʻe manavahē; he kuo hāʻele mai ʻae ʻOtua, ko homou ʻahiʻahiʻi, pea ke ʻi homou ʻao ʻene manavahē, ke ʻoua naʻa mou fai angahala.”
21 And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God was.
Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae kakai mei he mamaʻo, pea ʻunuʻunu atu ʻa Mōsese ki he poʻuli matolu, ʻaia naʻe ʻafio ai ʻae ʻOtua.
22 And the Lord said unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, Ye have seen that from heaven I have spoken with you.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Ke ke lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, Kuo mou mamata ki heʻeku lea kiate kimoutolu mei langi.
23 Ye shall not make any thing with me; gods of silver, and gods of gold ye shall not make unto yourselves.
‌ʻOua naʻa mou ngaohi ke fakalahi ʻaki au ha ngaahi ʻotua siliva, pea ʻoua naʻa mou ngaohi kiate kimoutolu ʻae ngaahi ʻotua koula.
24 An altar of earth shalt thou make unto me, and shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt-offerings, and thy peace-offerings, thy sheep, and thy oxen; in every place where I shall permit my name to be mentioned, I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee.
Ke ke ngaohi ʻae feilaulauʻanga kelekele kiate au, pea ke fai ai hoʻo ngaahi feilaulau tutu, mo hoʻo ngaahi feilaulau fakalelei, ʻa hoʻo fanga sipi, mo e fanga pulu: pea ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻoku ou fakahā ai hoku huafa, te u haʻu ai kiate koe, pea te u tāpuakiʻi koe.
25 And if thou wilt make me an altar of stone, thou shalt not build it of hewn stone; for if thou lift up thy tool upon it, thou hast polluted it.
Pea kapau ʻoku ke fie ngaohi kiate au ʻae feilaulauʻanga maka, ʻoua naʻa ke ngaohi ʻaki ia ʻae maka kuo tā: he kapau te ke hiki ki ai ha toki, kuo ke ʻuliʻi ia.
26 Neither shalt thou go up by steps upon my altar, that thy nakedness be not laid open thereon.
Pea ʻoua naʻa ke ʻalu hake ʻi ha tuʻunga ki hoku feilaulauʻanga, telia naʻa ʻiloʻi ai hoʻo telefua.
