1 “Ko e fānau ʻakimoutolu ʻa Sihova ko homou ʻOtua: ʻoua naʻa mou tafaʻi ʻakimoutolu, pe fafai homou foʻi laʻē koeʻuhi ko e pekia.
Ye are the children of the Lord your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
2 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.
For a holy people art thou unto the Lord thy God, and the Lord hath made choice of thee to be unto himself a peculiar nation above all the nations that are upon the face of the earth.
3 “ʻOua naʻa ke kai ha meʻa fakalielia ʻe taha.
Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.
4 Ko eni ʻae fanga manu ke mou kai: ko e pulu, mo e sipi, pea mo e kosi.
These are the beasts which ye may eat: The ox, the sheep, and the goat,
5 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.
The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow-deer, and the chamois, and the gazelle, and the wild ox, and the antelope.
6 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.
And every beast that hath parted hoofs, and whose feet are cleft into two claws, and cheweth the cud among the beasts—that alone may ye eat.
7 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.
Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of those that chew the cud, and of those that possess the divided cloven hoof: The camel, and the hare, and the coney: for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; unclean are they unto you;
8 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.
And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not the cud, it is unclean unto you; of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their dead carcass shall ye not touch.
9 “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:
This may ye eat of all that is in the waters: all that hath fins and scales may ye eat;
10 Pea ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻikai kaponga mo ʻuno ʻoua naʻa mou kai: ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia kiate kimoutolu.
And whatsoever hath not fins and scales shall ye not eat; it is unclean unto you.
11 “ʻI he manu maʻa kotoa pē ʻoku kapakau te mou kai.
Every clean bird may ye eat.
12 Ka ko kinautolu ni ʻoua naʻa mou kai: ko e ʻikale mo e ʻosifalesi mo e ʻosipale,
But these are they which ye shall not eat of them: The eagle, and the ossifrage, and the osprey,
13 Mo e kaite, mo e volita ʻi hono faʻahinga,
And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind,
14 Mo e leveni kotoa pē ʻi hono faʻahinga,
And every raven after his kind,
15 Mo e lulu, mo e taiseni ʻoe poʻuli, mo e kuko, mo e taiseni ʻi hono faʻahinga.
And the ostrich, and the night-hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after his kind,
16 Ko e peka, mo e lulu lahi, mo e suani,
The little owl, and the great owl and the swan,
17 Mo e lofa, mo e sia ʻikale, mo e komolanite,
And the pelican, and the gier-eagle, and the cormorant,
18 Mo e sitoaki, mo e motuku ʻi hono ngaahi faʻahinga, mo e lapiuingi, mo e pekalu.
And the stork, and the heron after his kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
19 Mo e ngaahi meʻa totolo kotoa pē ʻoku puna, ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia kiate kimoutolu: ʻoua naʻa kai ia.
And every winged insect is unclean unto you: it shall not be eaten.
20 Ka ko e ngaahi manu kapakau kotoa pē ʻoku maʻa ke mou kai.
All clean fowls may ye eat.
21 “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.
Ye shall not eat any thing that dieth of itself: unto the stranger that is in thy gates canst thou give it, that he may eat it; or thou mayest sell it unto an alien; for thou art a holy people unto the Lord thy God; thou shalt not seethe a kid in its mother's milk.
22 Ke ke tukuhau moʻoni ʻaki hono tupu kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo tenga, ʻaia ʻoku tupu ʻi he ngoue ʻi he taʻu tuku fakaholo.
Thou shalt truly tithe all the produce of thy seed, which the field bringeth forth year by year.
23 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.
And thou shalt eat before the Lord thy God, in the place which he will choose to cause his name to dwell there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thy oil, and the first-born of thy herds and of thy flocks; in order that thou may learn to fear the Lord thy God all the days.
24 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:
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 will choose to set his name there, because the Lord thy God will bless thee:
25 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:
Then shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in thy hand, and thou shalt go unto the place which the Lord thy God will choose;
26 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,
And thou shalt lay out that money for whatsoever thy soul longeth after, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever thy soul asketh of thee; and thou shalt eat it there before the Lord thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou, and thy household.
27 Pea mo e Livai ʻoku ʻi ho lotoʻā ʻoua naʻa ke liʻaki ia; he ʻoku ʻikai hano vahe pe tofiʻa mo kimoutolu.
And the Levite, who is within thy gates, him shalt thou not forsake; for he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee.
28 “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:
At the end of three years shalt thou bring forth all the tithe of thy produce in the same year, and thou shalt lay it down within thy gates:
29 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.
And then shall come the Levite, because he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee, with the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates, and they shall eat and be satisfied; in order that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou doest.
