Deuteronomy 14

1 Ye are the children of the LORD your God: ye 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 thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the LORD hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all peoples that are upon the face of 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 Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.

“ʻOua naʻa ke kai ha meʻa fakalielia ʻe taha.

4 These are the beasts which ye 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 gazelle, and the roebuck, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the antelope, 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 parteth the hoof, and hath the hoof cloven in two, [and] cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that ye 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 ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that have the hoof cloven: the camel, and the hare, and the coney, because they chew the cud but part not the hoof, they are unclean unto 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 he parteth the hoof but cheweth not the cud, he is unclean unto you: of their flesh ye shall not eat, and their carcases ye shall not touch.

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 ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales shall ye 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 whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye shall not eat; it is unclean unto 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 ye may eat.

“ʻI he manu maʻa kotoa pē ʻoku kapakau te mou kai.

12 But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the gier eagle, 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 falcon, and the kite after its kind;

Mo e kaite, mo e volita ʻi hono faʻahinga,

14 and every raven after its kind;

Mo e leveni kotoa pē ʻi hono faʻahinga,

15 and the ostrich, and the night hawk, and the seamew, and the hawk after its 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 horned owl;

Ko e peka, mo e lulu lahi, mo e suani,

17 and the pelican, and the vulture, and the cormorant;

Mo e lofa, mo e sia ʻikale, mo e komolanite,

18 and the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.

Mo e sitoaki, mo e motuku ʻi hono ngaahi faʻahinga, mo e lapiuingi, mo e pekalu.

19 And all winged creeping things are unclean unto 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 Of all clean fowls ye may eat.

Ka ko e ngaahi manu kapakau kotoa pē ʻoku maʻa ke mou kai.

21 Ye shall not eat of any thing that dieth of itself: thou mayest give it unto the stranger that is within thy gates, that he may eat it; or thou mayest sell it unto a foreigner: for thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in its 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 Thou shalt surely tithe all the increase of thy seed, that which cometh forth of the field 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 thou shalt eat before the LORD thy God, in the place which he shall choose to cause his name to dwell there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herd and of thy flock; that thou mayest learn to fear the LORD thy 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 thee, so that thou art not able to carry it, because the place is too far from thee, which the LORD thy God shall choose to set his name there, when the LORD thy God shall bless thee:

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 shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in thine hand, and shalt go unto the place which the LORD thy 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 thou shalt bestow the money for whatsoever thy soul desireth, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever thy soul asketh of thee: and thou shalt eat there before the LORD thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou and thine 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 thy gates, thou shalt not forsake him; for he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee.

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 every three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine increase in the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy 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 hath no portion nor inheritance with thee, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doest.

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.
