Deotoronomia 25
1 Raha misy olona manana ady ka mankeo amin’ ny fitsarana ary tsarain’ ny mpitsara, dia aoka hohamarininy izay marina ary hohelohiny kosa izay meloka.
“Kapau ʻe ai ha fakakikihi ʻi he kau tangata, pea nau omi ki he fakamaau, ke fakamaauʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau fakamaau: pea kenau fakatonuhia ʻae māʻoniʻoni, mo fakahalaia ʻae angahala.
2 Ary raha tokony hokapohina ny meloka, dia aoka hampandrin’ ny mpitsara izy ka hokapohina eo anatrehany, ary hatao araka ny helony no isan’ ny kapoka hatao aminy.
Pea ʻe pehē, kapau ʻoku totonu ke taaʻi ʻae angakovi, ʻe fekau ʻe he fakamaau ke fakatokoto ia ki lalo, pea ke taaʻi ia ʻi hono ʻao ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene kovi, mo e tā ʻoku lau.
3 Hatramin’ ny efa-polo no kapoka azo hatao aminy, fa tsy hatao mihoatra; fandrao raha mihoatra noho izany, dia ho toy ny tsinontsinona eo imasonao ny rahalahinao.
ʻE ngofua ke ʻai ke fāngofulu ʻae tā, ka ʻe ʻikai fakalahi ia: telia, ʻi heʻene fakalahi ia, ʻo taaʻi ʻaki ʻae tā lahi hake ʻi he ngaahi tā ni, ʻe hoko ai ho tokoua ko e kovi lahi ʻi ho ʻao.
4 Aza manakombona ny vavan’ ny omby mively vary.
“ʻOua naʻa ke nonoʻo ʻae ngutu ʻoe pulu ʻi heʻene malaki ʻae uite.
5 Raha misy mpirahalahy miara-monina, ary maty momba ny anankiray, dia aoka tsy hanambady vahiny any ivelany ny vadin’ ny maty; fa ny rahalahin’ ny vadiny ihany no aoka hanambady azy ka hitondra loloha azy.
“Kapau ʻoku nofo fakataha ʻae kāinga, pea pekia hanau tokotaha, pea ʻikai ha fānau, ʻoua naʻa fakamaʻu ʻae uaifi ʻo ia kuo pekia mo ha taha mamaʻo: kae ʻalu kiate ia ʻae tokoua ʻo hono husepāniti, ʻo ʻomi kiate ia ko hono uaifi, pea fai ai ʻae ngāue ʻoe tokoua ʻoe husepāniti kiate ia.
6 Ary ny lahimatoa izay haterany dia hitondra ny anaran’ ilay rahalahy izay efa maty, mba tsy ho faty maso eo amin’ ny Isiraely izy.
Pea ʻe pehē, ko e ʻuluaki tama ʻoku fanauʻi ʻe hoko ia ki he hingoa ʻo hono tokoua ʻaia kuo pekia, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa tāmateʻi hono hingoa mei ʻIsileli.
7 Ary raha tsy sitra-dralehilahy ny hitondra loloha ny vadin-drahalahiny, dia aoka hankeo amin’ ny vavahady ho eo amin’ ny loholona ravehivavy ka hanao hoe: Ny rahalahin’ ny vadiko tsy mety mamelo-maso ny rahalahiny, fa tsy mety mitondra loloha ahy.
Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai lelei ki he tangata ke ʻomi kiate ia ʻae uaifi ʻo hono tokoua, tuku ke ʻalu ʻae uaifi ʻo hono tokoua ki he kau mātuʻa, ʻo lea pehē, ‘ʻOku taʻeloto ʻae tokoua ʻo hoku husepāniti, ke fakatupu ʻae hingoa ki hono tokoua ʻi ʻIsileli, ʻoku ʻikai fie fai ʻe ia ʻae ngāue ʻae tokoua ʻo hoku husepāniti.’
8 Dia hantsoin’ ny loholona amin’ ny tanàna ralehilahy ka hadininy; ary raha mikiry izy ka manao hoe: Tsy sitrako ny hanambady azy,
Pea ʻe toki fekau kiate ia ʻe he kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻene kolo, ʻonau lea kiate ia: pea kapau ʻoku maʻu pe hono loto, ʻo ne pehē, ʻOku ʻikai lelei kiate au ke maʻu ia;
9 dia hanatona azy eo anatrehan’ ny loholona ny vadin-drahalahiny ka hanala ny kapa amin’ ny tongo-dralehilahy, dia handrora amin’ ny tavany ka hiteny hoe: Toy izany no hatao amin’ izay olona tsy mety mamelo-maso ny rahalahiny.
ʻE toki haʻu kiate ia ʻae uaifi ʻo hono tokoua ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau mātuʻa, ʻo ne vete hono topuvaʻe mei hono vaʻe, pea ʻaʻanu ki hono mata, pea ne lea ʻo pehē, ‘ʻE pehē pe hono fai ki he tangata ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai loto ke langa hake ʻae fale ʻo hono tokoua.’
10 Ary ny anaran-dralehilahy dia hatao eo amin’ ny Isiraely hoe: Fianakavian’ ilay nalan-kapa.
Pea ʻe ui hono hingoa ʻi ʻIsileli, ‘Ko e fale ʻo ia kuo vete hono topuvaʻe.’
11 Raha misy olona miady, ary ny vadin’ ny anankiray manatona hamonjy ny vadiny amin’ ny tànan’ izay mamely azy, ary maninjitra ny tànany ka mandray azy an-kasarotana,
“Kapau ʻe kē ha ongo tangata ʻo fefaʻuhi ʻo fai, pea haʻu ʻae uaifi ʻoe tokotaha ke fakamoʻui hono husepāniti mei he nima ʻo ia ʻoku ne taaʻi ia, pea mafao atu hono nima, ke puke ia ʻi he potu fufū:
12 dia hotapahinao ny tànany; tsy hiantra azy ny masonao.
Te ke tutuʻu hono nima, ʻoua naʻa ʻofa ho mata kiate ia.
13 Aoka tsy hisy vato mahery sy reraka ao an-kitaponao.
“ʻOua naʻa ke ʻai ʻi hoʻo kato ʻae ngaahi maka fakamamafa kehekehe, ʻae lahi mo e siʻi.
14 Aoka tsy hisy famarana mihoatra sy latsaka ao an-tranonao.
ʻOua naʻa ke maʻu ʻi ho fale ʻae puha fua kehekehe, ʻae lahi mo e siʻi.
15 Vato feno lanja sady marina ary famarana tonga ohatra sady marina no aoka hotananao, mba ho maro andro ianao any amin’ ny tany izay omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao.
Ka ke maʻu ʻe koe ʻae maka haohaoa mo totonu, mo e puha fua haohaoa mo totonu ko ia te ke maʻu: koeʻuhi ke fakalōloa ai ho ngaahi ʻaho ʻi he fonua ʻaia ʻoku foaki ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua kiate koe.
16 Fa fahavetavetana eo imason’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao izay rehetra manao izany zavatra izany, dia izay rehetra manao ny tsy marina.
He ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku fai meʻa pehē, mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku fai taʻemāʻoniʻoni, ko e meʻa kovi lahi ia kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.
17 Tsarovy izay nataon’ ny Amalekita taminao teny an-dalana tamin’ ny nandehananareo avy tany Egypta,
“Manatu ki he meʻa naʻe fai ʻe ʻAmaleki kiate koe ʻi he hala, hili hoʻomou haʻu mei ʻIsipite;
18 dia ny nitsenany anao teny an-dalana sy ny namelezany ny vodi-lalanao, dia izay rehetra tsy afaka teo aorianao, raha reraka sy sasatra ianao; fa tsy natahotra an’ Andriamanitra izy.
ʻA ʻene fakafetaulaki kiate koe ʻi he hala, ʻo ne teʻia ʻa homou mui fononga, ʻio ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe muimui vaivai ʻiate koe, ʻi hoʻo vaivai mo hoʻo ongosia pea naʻe ʻikai manavahē ia ki he ʻOtua.
19 Ary rehefa omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao fitsaharana amin’ ny fahavalonao rehetra manodidina ianao any amin’ ny tany izay omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao ho lovanao, dia hovonoinao ny fahatsiarovana ny Amalekita tsy ho eo ambanin’ ny lanitra intsony: aza hadinoinao izany.
Ko ia ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka tuku kiate koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻae mālōlō mei ho ngaahi fili kotoa pē ʻoku tuʻu takatakai, ʻi he fonua ʻaia ʻoku foaki ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua kiate koe ko ho tofiʻa, te ke tāmateʻi ʻae manatu ki ʻAmaleki mei he lalo langi; ʻoua naʻa ke fakangaloʻi eni.
