< Deuteronomy 23 >
1 No one whose testicles are crushed or whose male organ is cut off may enter the assembly of the LORD.
“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 No one of illegitimate birth shall enter into the assembly of the LORD; even to the tenth generation shall none of his enter into the assembly of the LORD.
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 or a Moabite shall not enter into the assembly of the LORD; even to the tenth generation shall none belonging to them enter into the assembly of the LORD forever:
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 they did not meet you with bread and with water in the way, when you came forth out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Aram Naharaim, to curse 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 Nevertheless the LORD your God wouldn't listen to Balaam; but the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing to you, because the LORD your God 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 shall not seek their peace nor their prosperity all your days forever.
ʻOua naʻa ke kumi ki heʻenau melino pe ko ʻenau lelei ʻi ho ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo taʻengata.
7 You shall not abhor an Edomite; for he is your brother: you shall not abhor an Egyptian, because you lived as a foreigner 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 The children of the third generation who are born to them shall enter into the assembly of the LORD.
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 you go forth in camp against your enemies, then you shall keep yourselves 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 If there is among you any man who is not clean by reason of that which happens him by night, then shall he go outside of the camp. He shall not come within 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 but it shall be, when evening comes on, he shall bathe himself in water; and when the sun is down, he shall come within 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 You shall have a place also outside of the camp, where you shall go outside there;
“Te ke vahe ha potu kiate koe ʻi tuaʻā ʻi ho ʻapitanga, ʻaia ke ke ʻalu ki ai ʻi he mamaʻo:
13 and you shall have a spade among your tools; and it shall be, when you sit down outside, you shall dig therewith, and shall turn and cover that which comes from you:
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 the LORD your God walks in the midst of your camp, to deliver you, and to give up your enemies before you; therefore your camp shall be holy, that he may not see an unclean thing in you, and turn away from 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 shall not deliver to his master a servant who is escaped from his master to you:
“ʻOua naʻa ke toe ʻatu ki hono ʻeiki ʻae tamaioʻeiki kuo hao kiate koe mei hono ʻeiki:
16 he shall dwell with you, in the midst of you, in the place which he shall choose within one of your gates, where it pleases him best: you shall 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 shall be no prostitute of the daughters of Israel, neither shall there be a sacred male prostitute of the children 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 shall not bring the hire of a prostitute, or the wages of a dog, into the house of the LORD your God for any vow: for even both these are an abomination to the LORD your God.
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 shall not lend on interest to your brother; interest of money, interest of food, interest of anything that is lent on interest:
“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 to a foreigner you may lend on interest; but to your brother you shall not lend on interest, that the LORD your God may bless you in all that you put your hand to, in the land 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 shall vow a vow to the LORD your God, you shall not be slack to pay it: for the LORD your God will surely require it of you; and it would be 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 But if you shall forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in you.
Pea kapau ʻoku ke taʻofi koe ʻo ʻikai fuakava, ʻe ʻikai angahala ia kiate koe.
23 That which is gone out of your lips you shall observe and do; according as you have vowed to the LORD your God, a freewill offering, which you have promised 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 your neighbor's vineyard, then you may eat of grapes your fill at your own pleasure; but you shall not put any in 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 into your neighbor's standing grain, then you may pluck the ears with your hand; but you shall not move a sickle to your neighbor's standing grain.
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.
