< Teutalonome 10 >
1 “Pea naʻe pehē mai ʻe Sihova kiate au ʻi he kuonga ko ia, ‘Ke ke tā mai ʻae ongo maka lafalafa ʻo hangē ko e ʻuluaki, pea ke ʻalu hake kiate au ki he moʻunga, pea ke ngaohi kiate koe ha puha ʻakau.’
At that time the Lord said to me: Hew thee two tables of stone like the former, and come up to me into the mount: and thou shalt make an ark of mood,
2 Pea te u tohi ki he ongo maka lafalafa ʻae ngaahi lea naʻe ʻi he ʻuluaki maka ʻaia naʻa ke maumauʻi, pea te ke ʻai ia ki he puha.
And I will write on the tables the words that were in them, which thou brokest before, and thou shalt put them in the ark.
3 Pea ne u ngaohi ʻae puha ʻoe ʻakau ko e sitimi, peau tātā ʻae ongo maka lafalafa ʻo hangē ko e ʻuluaki, pea u ʻalu hake ki he moʻunga, naʻe ʻi hoku nima ʻae ongo maka lafalafa.
And I made an ark of setim wood And when I had hewn two tables of stone like the former, I went up into the mount, having them in my hands.
4 Pea naʻe tohi ʻe ia ki he ongo maka lafalafa ʻo fakatatau ki he ʻuluaki tohi, ko e fekau ʻe hongofulu, ʻaia naʻe folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu ʻi he moʻunga mei he lotolotonga ʻoe afi ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe fakataha: pea naʻe tuku mai ia ʻe Sihova kiate au.
And he wrote in the tables, according as he had written before, the ten words, which the Lord spoke to you in the mount from the midst of the fire, when the people were assembled: and he gave them to me.
5 Pea naʻaku tafoki au ʻo ʻalu hifo mei he moʻunga, peau ʻai ʻae ongo maka lafalafa ki he puha naʻaku ngaohi; pea ʻoku ʻi ai ia, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kiate au.
And returning from the mount, I came down, and put the tables into the ark, that I had made, and they are there till this present, as the Lord commanded me.
6 “Pea naʻe hiki ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻa honau fononga mei Piheloti ʻoe fānau ʻa Sekani ki Mosela: pea naʻe pekia ai ʻa ʻElone, pea naʻe tanu ia ʻi ai; pea naʻe tongia ia ʻe ʻEliesa ko hono foha ʻi he ngāue fakataulaʻeiki.
And the children of Israel removed their camp from Beroth of the children of Jacan into Mosera, where Aaron died and was buried, and Eleazar his son succeeded him in the priestly office.
7 Pea naʻa nau fononga mei ai ki Kotikota; pea mei Kotikota ki Sotipati, ko e fonua ʻoe ngaahi vaitafe.
From thence they came to Gadgad, from which place they departed, and camped in Jetebatha, in a land of waters and torrents.
8 “Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe vaheʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae faʻahinga ʻo Livai, ke haʻamo ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻo Sihova, ke tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ke tauhi kiate ia, mo tāpuakiʻi ʻi hono huafa, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
At that time he separated the tribe of Levi, to carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and to stand before him in the ministry, and to bless in his name until this present day.
9 Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai maʻu ai ha tufakanga, pe ha tofiʻa ʻe Livai fakataha mo hono kāinga; ko hono tofiʻa ʻoʻona ʻa Sihova, ʻo hangē ko e talaʻofa kiate ia ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.
Wherefore Levi hath no part nor possession with his brethren: because the Lord himself is his possession, as the Lord thy God promised him.
10 Pea ne u tatali ʻi he moʻunga, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu mo e pō ʻe fāngofulu, ʻo hangē ko e fuofua fai; pea naʻe tokanga kiate au ʻa Sihova ʻi he kuonga foki ko ia, pea naʻe ʻikai fie fakaʻauha ʻakimoutolu ʻe Sihova.
And I stood in the mount, as before, forty days and nights: and the Lord heard me this time also, and would not destroy thee.
11 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, Tuʻu hake, ʻo fononga atu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai, koeʻuhi kenau ʻalu atu ʻo maʻu ʻae fonua, ʻaia naʻaku fuakava ai ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai ke foaki kiate kinautolu.
And he said to me: Go, and walk before the people, that they may enter, and possess the land, which I swore to their fathers that I would give them.
12 “Pea ko eni, ʻE ʻIsileli, ko e hā ia ʻoku fekau ai ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua kiate koe, ka ke manavahē kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ke ʻalu ʻi hono ngaahi hala kotoa pē, pea ke ʻofa kiate ia, pea ke tauhi ʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻaki ho loto kotoa pea mo ho laumālie kotoa.
And now, Israel, what doth the Lord thy God require of thee, but that thou fear the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways, and love him, and serve the Lord thy God, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul:
13 Ke tauhi ʻae ngaahi fekau ʻa Sihova, mo ʻene ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, ʻaia ʻoku ou fekau kiate koe he ʻaho ni ke ke lelei ai?
And keep the commandments of the Lord, and his ceremonies, which I command thee this day, that it may be well with thee?
14 Vakai, ko e langi mo e langi ʻoe ngaahi langi ʻoku ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ko māmani foki, mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai.
Behold heaven is the Lord’s thy God, and the heaven of heaven, the earth and all things that are therein.
15 Ka naʻe finangalo lelei ʻa Sihova ki hoʻo ngaahi tamai ke ʻofa kiate kinautolu, pea naʻa ne fili honau hako kimui ʻiate kinautolu, ʻio, ko kimoutolu ʻi he kakai kotoa pē, ʻo hangē ko ia he ʻaho ni.
And yet the Lord hath been closely joined to thy fathers, and loved them and chose their seed after them, that is to say, you, out of all nations, as this day it is proved.
16 Ko ia ke mou kamuʻi ʻae kili ʻo homou loto, pea ʻoua te mou kei kia kekeva.
Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and stiffen your neck no more.
17 He ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua ko e ʻOtua ia ʻoe ngaahi ʻotua, mo e ʻEiki ia ʻoe ngaahi ʻeiki, ko e ʻOtua lāngilangi, ko e māfimafi, mo fakailifia, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai filifilimānako ki he kakai, pe maʻu ha totongi:
Because the Lord your God he is the God of gods, and the Lord of lords, a great God and mighty and terrible, a who accepteth no person nor taketh bribes.
18 ʻOku ne fakamaau ʻe ia maʻae tamai mate mo e fefine paea, ʻoku ʻofa ia ki he muli, ʻo ne foaki ki ai ʻae meʻakai mo e kofu.
He doth judgment to the fatherless and the widow, loveth the stranger, and giveth him food and raiment.
19 Ko ia mou ʻofa foki ki he muli: he naʻa mou nofo ko e kau muli ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
And do you therefore love strangers, because you also were strangers in the land of Egypt.
20 Ke ke manavahē kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua; ko ia pe ke ke tauhi, pea ke pikitai kiate ia pe, pea fuakava ki hono huafa.
Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, and serve him only: to him thou shalt adhere, and shalt swear by his name.
21 Ko ho vikivikiʻanga ia, pea ko ho ʻOtua ia, ʻaia kuo ne fai maʻau ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi mo fakamanavahē, ʻaia kuo mamata ki ai ʻa ho mata.
He is thy praise, and thy God, that hath done for thee these great and terrible things, which thy eyes have seen.
22 Naʻe ʻalu hifo ʻa hoʻo ngaahi tamai ki ʻIsipite ko e kakai ʻe toko fitungofulu; pea ko eni kuo ngaohi koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ke tatau mo e ngaahi fetuʻu ʻoe langi homou tokolahi.
In seventy souls thy fathers went down into Egypt: and behold now the Lord thy God hath multiplied thee as the stars of heaven.
