1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
2 « Yebisa bana ya Isalaele ete bapesa yo mangenda zomi na mibale, lingenda moko mpo na mokambi ya libota moko na moko kati ya bikolo na bango. Koma kombo ya moto moko na moko na lingenda na ye.
“Ke ke lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea ke maʻu mei ai taki taha ʻae tokotoko ʻo fakatatau ki he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻi he houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻo fakatatau ki he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai ʻae tokotoko ʻe hongofulu ma ua: ke ke tohi ʻae hingoa ʻoe tangata taki taha ki hono tokotoko.
3 Koma kombo ya Aron mpo na lingenda ya libota ya Levi, mpo ete mokambi moko na moko ya libota akozala na lingenda moko.
Pea ke tohi ʻae hingoa ʻo ʻElone ki he tokotoko ʻo Livai: ʻe tuku ʻae tokotoko taki taha ki he ʻeiki ʻoe fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.
4 Tia mangenda yango na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, liboso ya Sanduku ya Litatoli, epai wapi nakutanaka na bino.
Pea ʻe tuku ia ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fakamoʻoni, ʻaia te u fetaulaki ai mo kimoutolu.
5 Lingenda ya moto oyo nakopona ekobimisa moto ya etape. Ezali na nzela wana nde nakosukisa Ngai moko koyimayima ya tango nyonso kati na bana ya Isalaele na tina na bino. »
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ko e tokotoko ʻoe tangata te u fili ki ai, ʻe moto ia: pea te u fai ke fakangata ʻae lāunga kiate au ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻaia ʻoku nau lāunga ʻaki kiate kimoua.”
6 Moyize ayebisaki bana ya Isalaele, mpe bakambi na bango bapesaki ye mangenda zomi na mibale, lokola lingenda moko mpo na mokambi ya libota moko na moko, lingenda ya Aron mpe ezalaki kati na mangenda wana.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Mōsese ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea naʻe taki taha ʻange ʻe honau houʻeiki ʻa hono tokotoko ʻo fakatatau ki he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ko e tokotoko ʻe hongofulu ma ua: pea ko e tokotoko ʻo ʻElone naʻe ʻai fakataha mo ʻenau ngaahi tokotoko.
7 Moyize atiaki mangenda nyonso liboso ya Yawe, kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Litatoli.
Pea naʻe tuku ʻe Mōsese ʻae ngaahi tokotoko ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakamoʻoni ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
8 Mokolo oyo elandaki, Moyize akotaki na Ndako ya kapo ya Litatoli, bongo amonaki ete lingenda ya Aron, oyo ezalaki kolakisa ndako ya Levi, ebimisaki mito ya etape, ebotaki bafololo mpe ezalaki na bambuma ya amande ya kotela.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene pongipongi hake naʻe hū ʻa Mōsese ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakamoʻoni; pea vakai, ko e tokotoko ʻo ʻElone mei he fale ʻo Livai, kuo matala pea kuo tupu ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi moto, mo e fisiʻi ʻakau, pea mo e ngaahi telie.
9 Moyize abimisaki mangenda nyonso longwa na liboso ya Yawe mpe amemaki yango na miso ya bato nyonso ya Isalaele. Bamonaki yango mpe moto na moto azwaki lingenda na ye.
Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Mōsese mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻae ngaahi tokotoko kotoa pē ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻa nau mamata, pea naʻe taki taha ʻave ʻe he tangata ʻa hono tokotoko.
10 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Zongisa lingenda ya Aron liboso ya Sanduku ya Litatoli mpo ete ebombama lokola elembo ya kotomboka na bango. Boye, okosukisa koyimayima na bango mpo na Ngai mpo ete bakufa te. »
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “Toe ʻomi ʻae tokotoko, ʻo ʻElone ki he ʻao ʻoe fakamoʻoni, ke tuku ia ko e fakaʻilonga ki he kau angatuʻu; pea te ke fakaʻosi ʻaupito ʻenau lāunga kiate au, telia naʻa nau mate.”
11 Moyize asalaki ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye.
Pea naʻe fai pehē ʻe Mōsese: ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kiate ia, naʻe pehē ʻene fai.
12 Bana ya Isalaele balobaki na Moyize: « Tokufi na biso, tobebi na biso, biso nyonso, tobebi na biso!
Pea naʻe lea ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, ʻoku mau mate, ʻoku mau malaʻia, ʻoku mau malaʻia kotoa pē.
13 Moto nyonso oyo akopusana pembeni ya Mongombo na Yawe akokufa. Boni, biso nyonso tokufa? »
Ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku haʻu ke ofi siʻi ki he fale fehikitaki ʻo Sihova ʻe mate ia: te mau fakaʻau aipe ke ʻauha ʻi he mate?”
