Deuteronomy 23
1 “No one wounded, bruised, or cut in the genitals enters into the assembly of YHWH;
“Ko ia kuo lavea ʻi hono tenga, pe kuo tutuʻu hono potu fufū, ke ʻoua naʻa hoko ia ki he fakataha ʻoe kakai ʻa Sihova.
2 a bastard does not enter into the assembly of YHWH; even a tenth generation of him does not enter into the assembly of YHWH.
ʻOua naʻa hoko ʻae foʻi angahala ki he fakataha ʻoe kakai ʻa Sihova; ʻio ʻo aʻu atu ki hono hongofulu ʻo ʻene toʻutangata ʻe ʻikai hoko ia ki he fakataha ʻoe kakai ʻa Sihova.
3 An Ammonite and a Moabite do not enter into the assembly of YHWH; even a tenth generation of them do not enter into the assembly of YHWH—for all time,
Ke ʻoua naʻa hoko ʻae kau ʻAmoni, pe ko e kau Moape ki he fakataha ʻoe kakai ʻa Sihova; ʻio, ʻo aʻu atu ki hono hongofulu ʻo ʻenau toʻutangata ʻe ʻikai tenau hoko ki he fakataha ʻoe kakai ʻa Sihova ʻo taʻengata:
4 because that they have not come before you with bread and with water in the way, in your coming out from Egypt, and because he has hired against you Balaam son of Beor, of Pethor of Aram-Naharaim, to revile you;
Koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai tenau fakafetaulaki kiate kimoutolu ʻi he hala ʻaki ʻae mā mo e vai, ʻi hoʻomou haʻu kituaʻā mei ʻIsipite; pea koeʻuhi naʻa nau totongi kia Pelami ko e foha ʻo Peoli mei Pitoli ʻi Mesopōtemia, ke ne fakamalaʻiaʻi koe:
5 and your God YHWH has not been willing to listen to Balaam, and your God YHWH turns the reviling to a blessing for you, because your God YHWH has loved you;
Ka ko e moʻoni naʻe ʻikai tokanga ʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua kia Pelami; ka naʻe liliu ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻae fakamalaʻia ko e meʻa monūʻia ia kiate koe, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻofa kiate koe ʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.
6 you do not seek their peace and their good all your days—for all time.
ʻOua naʻa ke kumi ki heʻenau melino pe ko ʻenau lelei ʻi ho ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo taʻengata.
7 You do not detest an Edomite, for he [is] your brother; you do not detest an Egyptian, for you have been a sojourner in his land;
“Ka ʻe ʻikai te ke fehiʻa ki he tangata ʻItomi; he ko ho tokoua ia: ʻoua naʻa ke fehiʻa ki ke tangata ʻIsipite; he naʻa ke nofo ko e muli ʻi hono fonua.
8 sons who are begotten of them, a third generation of them, enter into the assembly of YHWH.
Ko e ngaahi fānau ʻoku tupu ʻiate kinautolu tenau hoko ki he fakataha ʻoe kakai ʻa Sihova ʻi hono tolu ʻo honau toʻutangata.
9 When a camp goes out against your enemies, then you have kept from every evil thing.
“ʻOka ʻalu atu ʻa hoʻo kautau ki ho ngaahi fili, te ke taʻofi koe mei he meʻa angahala kotoa pē.
10 When there is a man who is not clean in you, from an accident at night, then he has gone out to the outside of the camp; he does not come into the midst of the camp;
“Kapau ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu ha tangata, ʻoku ʻikai maʻa ko e meʻa ʻi he meʻa taʻemaʻa kuo hoko fakafokifā kiate ia ʻi he poʻuli, ʻe ʻalu ia kituaʻā ʻi he ʻapitanga, ke ʻoua naʻa haʻu ia ki loto ʻi he ʻapitanga:
11 and it has been, at the turning of the evening, he bathes with water, and at the going in of the sun he comes into the midst of the camp.
Pea ka efiafi, pea ʻe pehē, te ne kaukau ia ʻaki ʻae vai: pea ka tō ʻae laʻā, ʻe toe haʻu ia ki he ʻapitanga.
12 And you have a station at the outside of the camp, and you have gone out there outside;
“Te ke vahe ha potu kiate koe ʻi tuaʻā ʻi ho ʻapitanga, ʻaia ke ke ʻalu ki ai ʻi he mamaʻo:
13 and you have a peg on your staff, and it has been, in your sitting outside, that you have dug with it, and turned back, and covered your filth.
Pea te ke ʻai ha huo ʻi ho tokotoko, pea ʻe pehē, ʻoka ke ka ʻalu kituaʻā, ke ke keli ʻaki ia, pea ke tafoki koe ʻo tanu ʻaia ʻoku haʻu meiate koe:
14 For your God YHWH is walking up and down in the midst of your camp, to deliver you and to give your enemies before you, and your camp has been holy, and He does not see the nakedness of anything in you, and has turned back from after you.
He ʻoku hāʻele ʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ho ʻapitanga, ke fakahaofi koe, pea ke tukuange ho ngaahi fili ʻi ho ʻao: ko ia ke māʻoniʻoni ai ho ʻapitanga: ke ʻoua naʻa ne ʻafioʻi ha meʻa taʻemaʻa ʻe taha ʻiate koe, ke ne tafoki ai meiate koe.
15 You do not shut up a servant to his lord, who escapes to you from his lord;
“ʻOua naʻa ke toe ʻatu ki hono ʻeiki ʻae tamaioʻeiki kuo hao kiate koe mei hono ʻeiki:
16 he dwells with you in your midst, in the place which he chooses within one of your gates, where it is pleasing to him; you do not oppress him.
ʻE nofo ia mo koe, ʻio, fakataha mo kimoutolu, ʻi he potu ko ia ʻe fili ʻe ia ʻi he kolo ʻe taha, ʻaia ʻe manako ki ai ia: ʻoua naʻa ke fakamālohi kiate ia.
17 There is not a whore among the daughters of Israel, nor is there a whoremonger among the sons of Israel;
ʻOua naʻa ai ha fefine feʻauaki ʻi he ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo ʻIsileli, pea ʻoua naʻa ai ha tangata angahala fakalielia ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo ʻIsileli.
18 you do not bring the wage of a whore or the price of a dog into the house of your God YHWH for any vow; for even both of them [are] an abomination [to] your God YHWH.
ʻOua naʻa ke ʻomi ʻae totongi ʻoe feʻauaki pe ko e totongi ʻoe kulī ki he fale ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻi ha fuakava ʻe taha: he ko e meʻa kovi fakatouʻosi pe ia kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.
19 You do not lend in usury to your brother—usury of money, usury of food, usury of anything which is lent on usury.
“ʻOua naʻa ke nō atu ke maʻu totongi lahi mei ho tokoua; ʻae totongi ʻoe paʻanga, pe ko e totongi meʻakai, pe ko e totongi ʻo ha meʻa ʻe taha kuo nō atu ke maʻu totongi:
20 You may lend in usury to a stranger, but you do not lend in usury to your brother, so that your God YHWH blesses you in every putting forth of your hand on the land to where you go in to possess it.
ʻE ngofua ʻa hoʻo nō atu ki he muli ke maʻu totongi; kaeʻoua naʻa ke nō atu ki ho tokoua ke maʻu totongi: koeʻuhi ke tāpuakiʻi koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ke ʻai ho nima ki ai, ʻi he fonua ko ia ʻoku ke ʻalu ki ai ke ke maʻu ia.
21 When you vow a vow to your God YHWH, you do not delay to complete it; for your God YHWH certainly requires it from you, lest it has been sin in you.
“ʻOka ke ka fuakava ʻaki ʻae fuakava kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa ke fakatuai ʻa hono fai: he ko e moʻoni ko Sihova ko ho ʻOtua te ne ʻeke ia kiate koe; pea ʻe hoko ia ko e angahala kiate koe.
22 And when you refrain to vow, it is not sin in you.
Pea kapau ʻoku ke taʻofi koe ʻo ʻikai fuakava, ʻe ʻikai angahala ia kiate koe.
23 You keep and have done the utterance of your lips, as you have vowed to your God YHWH, a free-will offering which you have spoken with your mouth.
“Ka ko ia kuo ʻalu atu ʻi ho loungutu ke ke fakapapau mo fai: ko e meʻa ʻatu loto lelei pe, ʻo hangē ko hoʻo fuakava kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻaia kuo ke fakaʻilo ʻaki ho ngutu.
24 When you come into the vineyard of your neighbor, then you have eaten grapes according to your desire, your sufficiency, but you do not put [any] into your vessel.
“ʻOka ke ka hoko ki he ngoue vaine ʻa ho kaungāʻapi, ʻe ngofua ʻa hoʻo kai ʻae kālepi ko hoʻo faʻiteliha ke ke mākona ai; kaeʻoua naʻa ke faʻo ha niʻihi ʻi hoʻo ipu.
25 When you come in among the standing grain of your neighbor, then you have plucked the ears with your hand, but you do not wave a sickle over the standing grain of your neighbor.”
ʻOka ke ka hoko ki he ngoue uite ʻa ho kaungāʻapi, ʻe ngofua ʻa hoʻo toli hono ngaahi fua ʻaki ho nima: kaeʻoua naʻa ke momoʻi ʻai ʻae helepiko ki he uite tuʻu ʻa ho kaungāʻapi.
