1 “ʻOua naʻa ke mamata ki he ʻalu hē ʻae pulu pe ko e sipi ʻa ho tokoua, pea fufū koe mei ai: ka te ke toe ʻomi moʻoni ia ki ho tokoua.
Thou shalt not see thy brother's ox or his lamb go astray, and withdraw thyself from them: thou shalt surely bring them back again unto thy brother.
2 Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai ofi ho tokoua kiate koe, pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai te ke ʻilo ia, te ke toki ʻomi ia ki ho fale ʻoʻou, pea ʻe ʻiate koe ia ka ʻi heʻene kumi ia ʻe ho tokoua, te ke toki ʻatu ia kiate ia.
But if thy brother be not nigh unto thee, or thou know him not: then shalt thou take it unto thy own house, and it shall remain with thee until thy brother inquire after it, and then shalt thou restore it to him.
3 Te ke fai pehē pe ki heʻene ʻasi pea ke fai pehē ki hono kofu: pea ki he ngaahi meʻa liʻaki kotoa pē, ʻaia kuo ne liʻaki, pea kuo ke ʻilo, ke ke fai pehē ni pe: ʻe tapu ʻa hoʻo fufū ʻe koe.
In like manner shalt thou do with his ass; and in like manner shalt thou do with his raiment; and in like manner shalt thou do with every lost thing of thy brother's, which may have been lost to him, and which thou hast found; thou art not at liberty to withdraw thyself.
4 “ʻOua naʻa ke mamata ki he ʻasi ʻa ho tokoua pe ko ʻene pulu ʻoku tō ʻi he hala, pea ke fufū koe mei ai: ka te ke tokoni moʻoni ia ke hiki hake.
Thou shalt not see thy brother's ass or his ox fallen down by the way, and withdraw thyself from them: thou shalt surely help him to lift them up again.
5 “Ke ʻoua naʻa kofuʻaki ʻe he fefine ʻaia ʻoku kau ki he tangata, pea ʻoua naʻa ʻai ʻe he tangata ʻae kofu fakafefine: he ko kinautolu ʻoku fai pehē ʻoku kovi lahi kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.
A woman shall not have upon her the apparel of a man, and a man shall not put on a woman's garment; for an abomination unto the Lord thy God are all who do this.
6 “Kapau ʻoku ke ʻilo fakafokifā pe ʻae pununga ʻoe manu, ʻi he hala pe ʻi he ʻakau, pe ʻi he kelekele, pe ko ha ʻuhiki pe ko e foʻi manu, mo e faʻē ʻoku mohe ki hono ʻuhiki, pe ki he foʻi manu, ʻoua naʻa ke puke fakataha ʻae faʻē mo hono ʻuhiki:
If a bird's nest chance to be before thee in the way, on any tree, or on the ground, with young ones, or with eggs, and the mother be sitting upon the young, or upon the eggs: thou shalt not take the mother with the young;
7 Ka ke tukuange ʻae faʻē ke ʻalu, pea ke toʻo hono ʻuhiki kiate koe; koeʻuhi ke hoko ai ʻae lelei kiate koe, pea ke fakatolonga ai ho ngaahi ʻaho.
But thou shalt surely let the mother go, and the young thou mayest take to thyself; in order that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest live many days.
8 “ʻOka ke ka langa ha fale foʻou, te ke ngaohi ki ai hono ʻā ke takatakai ʻi he tuʻafale, telia naʻa ke ʻomi ha toto ki ho fale, ʻokapau ʻe tō ha tangata mei ai.
When thou buildest a new house, thou shalt make a battlement for thy roof; that thou bring not blood upon thy house, if any one were to fall from there.
9 “ʻOua naʻa ke tō hoʻo ngoue vaine ʻaki ʻae ngaahi tenga kehekehe: telia naʻa fakahalaʻi ʻae fua ʻo hoʻo tenga ʻaia kuo ke tō, mo e fua ʻo hoʻo vaine.
Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds; that the ripe fruit of thy seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of the vineyard, be not defiled.
10 “ʻOua naʻa ke tauluaʻi fakataha ʻae pulu mo e ʻasi ki he huo toho.
Thou shalt not plough with an ox and an ass together.
11 “ʻOua naʻa ke ʻai ʻae kofu ʻoku anga kehekehe, ʻo hangē ko e fulufulu sipi mo e vavae kuo fakataha.
Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, of woolen and linen together.
12 “Ke ke ngaohi kiate koe ʻae ngaahi pao ki ho pulupulu ki hono potu ʻe fā, ʻaia ʻoku fakapulou ʻaki koe.
Thou shalt make thyself fringes upon the four corners of thy vesture, wherewith thou coverest thyself.
13 “Kapau ʻoku fili mai ha uaifi ʻe ha tangata pea ʻalu ia kiate ia, pea fehiʻa kiate ia,
If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate her,
14 Pea ʻoku ne fakatupu lau kiate ia ʻo langaʻi ʻae lauʻikovi kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, Ne u fili ʻae fefine ni, pea ʻi heʻeku haʻu kiate ia, naʻaku ʻilo naʻe ʻikai ko e taʻahine ia.
And he lay an accusation against her, and spread abroad an evil name upon her, and say, This woman I took [for wife], and when I came near to her, I found no tokens of virginity in her:
15 Pea ʻe toki toʻo mai ʻo ʻomi ʻe he tamai mo e faʻē ʻae taʻahine, hono fakaʻilonga ʻo ʻene taʻahine ki he kau mātuʻa ʻi he matapā ʻoe kolo:
Then shall the father of the damsel, and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel's virginity unto the elders of the city, to the gate.
16 Pea ʻe pehē ʻe he tamai ʻae taʻahine ki he kau mātuʻa, Ne u foaki ʻeku taʻahine ki he tangata ke na mali, pea ʻoku fehiʻa ia kiate ia.
And the father of the damsel shall say unto the elders, My daughter I gave unto this man for wife; but he hath conceived hatred toward her;
17 Pea vakai, kuo ne fakalanga lau kiate ia, ʻo pehē, ʻOku ʻikai ko e taʻahine ʻa ho ʻofefine: ka ko e moʻoni ko hono fakaʻilonga eni ʻo ʻene taʻahine. Pea tenau folahi atu ʻae holo ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau mātuʻa ʻoe kolo.
And, lo, he hath laid an accusation [against her], saying, I have found no tokens of virginity in thy daughter; and yet these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity; and they shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city.
18 Pea ʻe ʻave ʻe he kau mātuʻa ʻoe kolo ko ia ʻae tangata ko ia ʻo tautea ia:
And the elders of that city shall take that man and chastise him;
19 Pea kenau fakamaaua ia ke totongiʻaki ʻa e [sikeli ]siliva ʻe teau, ʻo ʻatu ia ki he tamai ʻae fefine, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene langaʻi ʻae lau kovi ki he taʻahine ʻi ʻIsileli: pea ʻe hoko ia ko hono uaifi; ʻe ʻikai ngofua ke ne tukuange ia ʻi hono ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē.
And they shall amerce him in a hundred shekels of silver, and give them unto the father of the damsel; because he hath spread abroad an evil name upon a virgin of Israel; and she shall remain his wife; he shall not be at liberty to put her away all his days.
20 Pea kapau ʻoku moʻoni ʻae meʻa ni, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga ʻoe taʻahine ki he fefine:
But if this thing was true, there have not been found tokens of virginity in the damsel:
21 Tenau toki ʻomi kituʻa ʻae fefine mei he matapā ʻoe fale ʻo ʻene tamai, pea ʻe tolongaki ia ʻe he kau tangata ʻo hono kolo ʻaki ʻae maka ke mate ia, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fai angakovi ʻi ʻIsileli, ʻo fai feʻauaki ʻi he fale ʻo ʻene tamai: ʻe pehē pe hoʻo tukuange ʻae kovi meiate kimoutolu.
Then shall they lead out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die; because she hath wrought a disgraceful deed in Israel, to commit incest in her father's house; and thou shalt put away the evil from the midst of thee.
22 “Kapau ʻe ʻilo ha tangata ʻoku mohe ia mo e fefine kuo mali husepāniti, ʻe mate fakatouʻosi ai ʻakinaua, ʻae tangata naʻe mohe mo e fefine, pea mo e fefine: ʻe pehē pe hoʻo tukuange ʻae kovi mei ʻIsileli.
If a man be found lying with a woman married to a husband: then shall both of them die, the man that lieth with the woman, and the woman; and thou shalt put away the evil from Israel.
23 “Kapau ʻoku poloʻi ha taʻahine ko e tāupoʻou ki ha tangata, pea maʻu ia ʻe ha tangata ʻi he kolo, pea mohe mo ia;
If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed unto a man, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her:
24 Te mou toki ʻomi ʻakinaua kituʻa ki he matapā ʻoe kolo, pea te mou tolongaki ʻaki ʻakinaua ʻae maka ke na mate: ʻae fefine, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai kalanga ia, ka kuo ne ʻi he kolo; mo e tangata ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fakahalaʻi ʻae uaifi ʻo hono kaungāʻapi: ʻe pehē pe hoʻo tukuange ʻae kovi meiate kimoutolu.
Then shall ye lead them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not [for aid] in the city; and the man, because he hath done violence to his neighbor's wife; and thou shalt put away the evil from the midst of thee.
25 “Pea kapau ʻoku maʻu ʻi he ngoue ʻe ha tangata ʻae taʻahine poloʻi, pea tohotoho ia, pea mohe mo ia: ko e tangata pe naʻe mohe mo ia ʻe mate:
But if in the field the man should find the betrothed damsel, and the man take hold of her by force, and lie with her: then shall the man that lay with her die alone;
26 Ka ʻe ʻikai te ke fai ha meʻa ki he taʻahine; ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he taʻahine ha angahala ke mate ai ia: ka ʻoku hangē ko e tuʻu hake ha tangata ki hono kaungāʻapi, ʻo ne tāmateʻi ia, ʻoku pehē pe ʻae meʻa ni:
But unto the damsel shalt thou not do any thing; there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death; for as when a man riseth against his neighbor, and striketh him dead. even so is this matter;
27 He naʻa ne maʻu ia ʻi he ngoue, pea naʻe kalanga ʻae taʻahine poloʻi, ka naʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha ke fakamoʻui ia.
For in the field did he find her; had the betrothed damsel even cried, there would have been none to aid her.
28 “Kapau ʻoku maʻu ʻe ha tangata ha taʻahine ko e tāupoʻou, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai poloʻi, pea puke ia, pea mohe mo ia, pea kuo ʻilo ʻakinaua;
If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, who is not betrothed, and lay fast hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found:
29 Pehē ʻe ʻatu ʻe he tangata naʻe mohe mo ia ki he tamai ʻae taʻahine ʻa e [sikeli ]siliva ʻe nimangofulu; pea ʻe hoko [ʻae fefine ]ko ia ko hono uaifi: ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fakahalaʻi ia, ʻoku ʻikai lelei ʻene tukuange ia lolotonga ʻa ʻene moʻui kotoa pē.
Then shall the man who lieth with her give unto the father of the damsel fifty shekels of silver; and she shall become his wife, because he hath done violence to her, he shall not be at liberty to put her away all his days.
30 Ke ʻoua naʻa mali ha tangata mo e uaifi ʻo ʻene tamai pe fakatelefua ʻene tamai.
A man shall not take his lather's wife, and he shall not uncover his father's skirt.
