ʻEkisotosi 22

1 “Kapau ʻe kaihaʻa ʻe ha tangata ha pulu pe ha sipi, mo tāmateʻi ia, pe fakatau ia; te ne totongi ʻae pulu ʻaki ʻae pulu ʻe nima, mo e sipi ʻe taha ʻaki ʻae sipi ʻe fā.

If a man steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it, he shall pay five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.

2 Kapau ʻe maʻu[poʻuli ]ha kaihaʻa lolotonga ʻene fai, pea taaʻi ia pea mate, ʻe ʻikai lilingi ha toto koeʻuhi ko ia.

If a thief be found breaking in, and be smitten so that he dieth, there shall be no bloodguiltiness for him.

3 Kapau kuo ʻalu hake ʻae laʻā kiate ia, ʻe ʻikai teʻia ia: ka te ne ʻatu hono totongi kotoa: kapau ʻoku ʻikai haʻa ne meʻa, pehē ʻe fakatau ia koeʻuhi ko ʻene kaihaʻa.

If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be bloodguiltiness for him — he shall make restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.

4 Kapau ʻoku ʻilo pau ʻene kaihaʻa ʻi hono nima ʻoku kei moʻui, pe ko ha pulu, pe ha ʻasi, pe ha sipi; ʻe totongi ʻaki ia ʻae ua.

If the theft be found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or sheep, he shall pay double.

5 “Kapau ʻe fai ʻe ha tangata ke keina ha ngoue, pe ha ngoue vaine, ʻo ne tuku ki ai ʻene manu, ke kai ʻi he ngoue ʻae tangata kehe: ʻe totongi ki ai ia ʻaki hono fua lelei ʻo ʻene ngoue, mo e lelei ʻo ʻene ngoue vaine.

If a man cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall let his beast loose, and it feed in another man's field; of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.

6 “Kapau ʻe tupu ha afi, pea hoko ki he ʻakau talatala, pea vela ai ʻae ngaahi fokotuʻunga uite, pe ko e ngoue, ʻo ʻauha ai; ko ia naʻa ne tutu ʻae afi te ne totongi moʻoni.

If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that the shocks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field are consumed; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.

7 “Kapau ʻe tuku ʻe ha tangata ʻae ngaahi paʻanga, pe ha meʻa ki hono kaungāʻapi, ke ne vakai ki ai, pea kapau ʻe kaihaʻasia ia mei he fale ʻoe tangata: kapau ʻe ʻilo ʻae kaihaʻa, tuku ke ne totongi ʻaki ʻae ua.

If a man deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief be found, he shall pay double.

8 Kapau ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ʻae kaihaʻa, pea ʻe toki ʻomi ʻae ʻeiki ʻoe fale ki he kau fakamaau, ke ʻilo, pe kuo ne ai hono nima ki he meʻa ʻa hono kaungāʻapi.

If the thief be not found, then the master of the house shall come near unto God, to see whether he have not put his hand unto his neighbour's goods.

9 “ʻI he ngaahi anga fakakaihaʻa kotoa pē, ʻoku kau ki he pulu, pe ki he ʻasi, pe ko e sipi, pe ki he kofu, pe ki he meʻa kuo mole, ʻaia ʻoku lea fakapapau ki ai ha tokotaha ʻo pehē ko ʻene meʻa, ʻe fakahā fakatouʻosi pe ʻena meʻa ki he kau fakamaau; pea ko ia ʻe tuku ko e halaia ʻe he kau fakamaau, te ne totongi ke tuʻo ua ki hono kaungāʻapi.

For every matter of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, whereof one saith: 'This is it,' the cause of both parties shall come before God; he whom God shall condemn shall pay double unto his neighbour.

10 “Kapau ʻe tuku ʻe ha tangata ki hono kaungāʻapi, ha ʻasi, pe ha pulu, pe ha sipi, pe ha manu ʻe taha ke ne tauhi; pea mate ia, pe lavea, pe fakahēʻi ke mamaʻo, kae ʻikai ha tangata kuo mamata ki ai;

If a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep, and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it;

11 Pea ʻe fuakava ʻakinaua ki he ʻEiki, ʻo pehē naʻe ʻikai te ne mafao atu hono nima ki he meʻa ʻa hono kaungāʻapi; pea ko ia ʻoku ʻaʻana ʻae meʻa te ne tui ki ai, pea ʻe ʻikai totongi ia.

the oath of the LORD shall be between them both, to see whether he have not put his hand unto his neighbour's goods; and the owner thereof shall accept it, and he shall not make restitution.

12 Pea kapau kuo kaihaʻasi meiate ia, pea te ne ʻatu ʻae totongi kiate ia ʻoku ʻaʻana ia.

But if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner thereof.

13 Kapau kuo mahaehae, ʻoku lelei ʻene ʻomi ia ke fakamoʻoni, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne totongi ʻaia kuo mahaehae.

If it be torn in pieces, let him bring it for witness; he shall not make good that which was torn.

14 “Pea kapau ʻe nō ʻe ha tangata ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻi hono kaungāʻapi, pea hoko ʻo lavea ia, pe mate, kae ʻikai ʻi ai ʻaia ʻoku ʻaʻana, ko e moʻoni te ne totongi ia.

And if a man borrow aught of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof not being with it, he shall surely make restitution.

15 Pea kapau naʻe ʻi ai ia ʻaia ʻoku ʻaʻana, pea ʻe ʻikai totongi ia; kapau ko e ngāue totongi, naʻe haʻu ia ko e totongi.

If the owner thereof be with it, he shall not make it good; if it be a hireling, he loseth his hire.

16 “Pea kapau ʻe fakatauveleʻi ʻe ha tangata ha taʻahine ʻoku teʻeki poloʻi pea na mohe, ko e moʻoni te ne vahe koloa maʻana, pea hoko ko hono mali.

And if a man entice a virgin that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely pay a dowry for her to be his wife.

17 Pea kapau ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito tuku ia ʻe heʻene tamai kiate ia, pea ke totongi paʻanga ia ʻo fakatatau ki he koloa fakatau ʻae kau taʻahine.

If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.

18 “ʻOua naʻa ke tuku ke moʻui ʻae fefine taulafaʻahikehe.

Thou shalt not suffer a sorceress to live.

19 “Ko ia ʻe mohe mo e manu ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia.

Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.

20 “Ko ia ʻoku feilaulau ki ha ʻotua kehe, ka ʻoku ʻikai kia Sihova pe, ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia.

He that sacrificeth unto the gods, save unto the LORD only, shall be utterly destroyed.

21 “ʻE ʻikai te ke fakamamahiʻi ha muli, pe taʻomia ia, he naʻa mou nofo ʻi ʻIsipite ko e kau muli.

And a stranger shalt thou not wrong, neither shalt thou oppress him; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

22 “ʻE ʻikai te mou fakamamahi ha fefine kuo pekia hono mali, pe ko e tamasiʻi tuēnoa.

Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.

23 Kapau te ke tautea ʻakinautolu ʻi ha meʻa, pea nau tangi mai kiate au, ko e moʻoni te u ongoʻi ʻenau tangi;

If thou afflict them in any wise — for if they cry at all unto Me, I will surely hear their cry —

24 Pea ʻe tupu ʻo lahi ai ʻeku houhau, pea te u tāmateʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae heletā; pea ʻe hoko homou ngaahi mali ko e kau paea, mo hoʻomou fānau ko e tamai mate.

My wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.

25 “Kapau ʻoku tuku atu hoʻo koloa ki ha niʻihi ʻi hoku kakai masiva ʻoku ofi kiate koe, ʻoua naʻa ke fai kiate ia hangē ha tangi koloa totongi, pea ʻoua naʻa ke tala kiate ia ʻae totongi.

If thou lend money to any of My people, even to the poor with thee, thou shalt not be to him as a creditor; neither shall ye lay upon him interest.

26 Kapau ʻoku ke toʻo ʻae kofu ʻo ho kaungāʻapi ko e fakamoʻoni, ke ke toe ʻatu ia kiate ia ʻo feʻunga mo e tō ʻae laʻā.

If thou at all take thy neighbour's garment to pledge, thou shalt restore it unto him by that the sun goeth down;

27 He ko hono kofu pe ia, ko e kofu ʻo hono kili: pea ko e hā ʻe mohe ai ia? Pea ka tangi ia kiate au, pea ʻe pehē, Te u ongoʻi, he ʻoku ou angaʻofa.

for that is his only covering, it is his garment for his skin; wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto Me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.

28 “ʻOua naʻa ke lauʻikovi ʻae kau fakamaau, pe kapeʻi ʻae pule ʻa hoʻo kakai.

Thou shalt not revile God, nor curse a ruler of thy people.

29 “ʻOua naʻa ke fakatuai ʻi he ʻatu hoʻo ngaahi ʻuluaki fua kuo motuʻa, mo e meʻainu; ko e ʻuluaki ʻi ho ngaahi foha te ke foaki kia Sihova.

Thou shalt not delay to offer of the fulness of thy harvest, and of the outflow of thy presses. The first-born of thy sons shalt thou give unto Me.

30 Pea ke fai pehē pe foki ki hoʻo fanga pulu pea mo hoʻo fanga sipi: ʻe nofo ʻae ʻuhiki mo ʻene faʻē ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu: ʻi hono ʻaho valu te ke foaki mai ia kiate au.

Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep; seven days it shall be with its dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it Me.

31 “Pea te mou ʻiate au ko e kau tangata māʻoniʻoni: pea ʻe ʻikai te mou kai ha kakano kuo haehae ʻe he fanga manu ʻi he vao; ka te mou lī ia ki he fanga kulī.

And ye shall be holy men unto Me; therefore ye shall not eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
