Teutalonome 13

1 “Kapau ʻoku tupu hake meiate kimoutolu ha taha ʻoku kikite, pe ko e tokotaha ʻoku misi ʻae ngaahi misi, pea tuku kiate koe ha fakaʻilonga pe ha meʻa fakaofo,

If there arise among you a prophet, or one that dreameth dreams, and he give thee a sign or a wonder,

2 Pea ʻe hoko ʻae fakaʻilonga pe ko e meʻa fakaofo ʻaia naʻa ne lea ki ai, pea pehē ʻe ia, Ketau ʻalu ʻo muimui ʻi he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai te ke ʻilo, pea ketau tauhi ʻakinautolu;

and the sign or the wonder come to pass that he told unto thee, when he said, Let us go after other gods, whom thou hast not known, and let us serve them,

3 ‌ʻOua naʻa ke tokanga ki he lea ʻae kikite ko ia, pe ko e tokotaha ko ia ʻoku misi ʻae ngaahi misi: he ʻoku ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ke ʻilo pe te mou ʻofa kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua ʻaki homou loto kotoa mo homou laumālie kotoa:

— thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams; for Jehovah your God proveth you, to know whether ye love Jehovah your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

4 Ke mou muimui ʻia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, pea manavahē kiate ia, pea tauhi ʻene ngaahi fekau, pea fai talangofua ki hono leʻo, pea ke mou tauhi ia, pea pikitai kiate ia.

Ye shall walk after Jehovah your God, and ye shall fear him, and his commandments shall ye keep, and his voice shall ye hear; and ye shall serve him, and unto him shall ye cleave.

5 Pea ko e kikite ko ia, pe ko e tokotaha ʻoku misi ʻae ngaahi misi ko ia, ʻe tāmateʻi ia; ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene lea ke fakatafoki ʻakimoutolu meia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne ʻomi ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻo ne huhuʻi ʻakimoutolu mei he fale fakapōpula, ke fakahēʻi koe mei he hala ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ke ke ʻalu ai. Pea ʻe pehē pe hoʻo tukuange ʻae kovi meiate koe.

And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; for he hath spoken revolt against Jehovah your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, — to draw thee out of the way that Jehovah thy God commanded thee to walk in; and thou shalt put evil away from thy midst.

6 “Kapau ʻoku fakahekeheke fakafufū kiate koe ʻe ho tokoua, ko e tama ʻa hoʻo faʻē, pē ko ho foha, pē ko ho ʻofefine, pē ko e uaifi ʻo ho fatafata, pe ko ho kaumeʻa ʻaia ʻoku tatau mo ho laumālie ʻoʻou, ʻo pehē, ‘Ke ta ō ʻo tauhi ʻotua kehe,’ ʻaia naʻe ʻikai te ke ʻiloʻi, ʻe koe, pe ʻe hoʻo ngaahi tamai;

If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, who is to thee as thy soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods (whom thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;

7 ‌ʻI he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kakai ʻaia ʻoku nofo takatakai ʻiate kimoutolu pe ʻoku [nau ]ofi kiate koe, pe ʻoku mamaʻo atu ʻiate koe, mei he ngataʻanga ʻe taha ʻo māmani ʻo aʻu atu ki he ngataʻanga ʻe taha;

of the gods of the peoples which are round about you, near unto thee, or far from thee, from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth),

8 ‌ʻOua naʻa ke tui kiate ia, pe fie tokanga ki ai; pea ke ʻoua naʻa ʻofa ho mata kiate ia, pea ʻoua naʻa ke mamae ki ai, pea ʻoua naʻa ke fufū ia:

thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye spare him, neither shalt thou pity him, neither shalt thou screen him,

9 Ka ke tāmateʻi moʻoni ia; ʻe tomuʻa hoko ho nima kiate ia ke tāmateʻi ia, pea toki hoko ki ai ʻae nima ʻoe kakai kotoa pē.

but thou shalt in any case kill him: thy hand shall be the first against him to put him to death, and afterwards the hands of all the people;

10 Pea te ke tolongaki ʻaki ia ʻae maka, ke ne mate; ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene ʻahiʻahi ke fakahēʻi koe meia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne ʻomi koe mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, mei he fale ʻoe pōpula.

and thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; for he hath sought to draw thee away from Jehovah thy God who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;

11 Pea ʻe fanongo ki ai ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē, pea manavahē, pea ʻe ʻikai toe fai ha angakovi pehē ʻiate kimoutolu.

and all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any such wicked thing as this in thy midst.

12 “Kapau te ke fanongo ki he talanoa ʻi ha kolo ʻe taha, ʻaia kuo foaki ʻe Sihova kiate koe ke ke nofo ai, ʻo pehē,

If in one of thy cities, which Jehovah thy God hath given thee to dwell there, thou hearest, saying,

13 Ko e kau tangata niʻihi, ko e fānau ʻae kovi, kuo ʻalu ʻiate kimoutolu, pea kuo nau fakahēʻi ʻae kakai ʻo ʻenau kolo, ʻo pehē, ‘Ke tau ō ʻo tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe,’ ʻaia naʻe ʻikai te mou ʻilo;

There are men, children of Belial, gone out from among you, and they have drawn away the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, whom ye have not known;

14 Te ke toki fehuʻi koe, ʻo faʻa ʻeke, fehuʻi fakapapau; pea vakai, kapau ʻoku moʻoni, pea kuo pau ʻaupito ʻae meʻa ko ia pea kuo fai ʻae meʻa kovi lahi ko ia ʻiate kimoutolu;

then shalt thou inquire, and make search, and ask diligently; and if it be truth, [and] the thing be certain, that this abomination hath happened in the midst of thee,

15 Ko e moʻoni te ke teʻia ʻae kakai ʻoe kolo ko ia ʻaki ʻae mata ʻoe heletā, ʻo fakaʻauha ʻaupito ia, mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai, mo e ngaahi fanga manu ʻoku ʻi ai, ʻaki ʻae mata ʻoe heletā.

thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, devoting it to destruction, and all that is therein, and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword.

16 Pea te ke tānaki hono vete kotoa pē ki he loto hala motuʻa, pea ke tutu ʻaki ʻae afi ʻae kolo ko ia, pea mo e vete kotoa pē ʻo ia, koeʻuhi ko Sihova ko ho ʻOtua: ka ʻe hoko ia ko e tafungofunga pe ʻo taʻengata; ʻe ʻikai toe langa ia.

And all the spoil of it shalt thou gather into the midst of the open place thereof, and shalt burn the city with fire, and all the spoil thereof, wholly to Jehovah thy God; and it shall be a heap for ever; it shall not be built again.

17 “Pea ke ʻoua naʻa hiki ki homou nima ha meʻa siʻi ʻi he ngaahi meʻa fakamalaʻia, koeʻuhi ke tafoki ʻa Sihova mei hono lahi fau ʻo hono houhau, pea fakahā ʻae ʻaloʻofa kiate koe, pea manavaʻofa kiate koe, pea fakatokolahi koe, ʻo hangē ko ʻene fuakava ki hoʻo ngaahi tamai;

And thou shalt not let anything cleave to thy hand of the devoted thing; that Jehovah may turn from the fierceness of his anger, and shew thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and multiply thee, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers;

18 ‌ʻOka ke ka tokanga ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ke tauhi ʻene ngaahi fekau kotoa pē ʻaia ʻoku ou fekau kiate koe he ʻaho ni, ke fai ʻaia ʻoku totonu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.

when thou hearkenest to the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, that thou mayest do what is right in the eyes of Jehovah thy God.
