Levitiko 11

1 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinaua,

Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

2 Lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, Ko eni ʻae ngaahi manu ʻaia temou kai ʻi he ngaahi manu ʻoku ʻi he funga ʻo māmani.

“Speak to the people of Israel, saying, 'These are the living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth.

3 ‌ʻIlonga ʻaia ʻi he fanga manu ʻoku mavaeua hono pesipesi, pea vaʻe mafahi, pea ʻoku toe lamulamu ʻangaua ʻene kai, temou kai ia.

You may eat any animal that has a split hoof and that also chews the cud.

4 Ka ko e niʻihi ʻi ai ʻoku lamu ʻangaua ʻene kai, mo vaeua ʻae vaʻe ʻe ʻikai temou kai: ʻo hangē ko e kāmeli, koeʻuhi ʻoku ne toe lamu ʻene kai, ka ʻoku ʻikai mavahevahe ʻae vaʻe: ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia kiate kimoutolu.

However, some animals either chew the cud or have a split hoof, and you must not eat them, animals such as the camel, because it chews the cud but does not have a split hoof. So the camel is unclean to you.

5 Pea mo e koni, koeʻuhi ʻoku ne toe lamu ʻene maʻanga, ka ʻoku ʻikai mavaeua ʻae vaʻe; ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia kiate kimoutolu.

Also the rock badger, because it chews the cud but does not have a split hoof, it is also unclean to you.

6 Pea ko e hea, koeʻuhi ʻoku ne toe lamu ʻene kai, ka ʻoku ʻikai mavaeua hono pesipesi: ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia kiate kimoutolu.

The rabbit, because it chews the cud, but does not have a split hoof, is unclean to you.

7 Pea ko e puaka, ʻoku mavahevahe hono pesipesi, pea vaʻe mafahi, ka ʻoku ʻikai fakahake ʻene kai ʻo toe lamu ia; ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia kiate kimoutolu.

The pig, although it has a split hoof, does not chew the cud, is unclean to you.

8 ‌ʻOua naʻa mou kai honau sino, pe ala ki honau kakano; ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia kiate kimoutolu.

You must not eat any of their meat, nor touch their carcasses. They are unclean to you.

9 Ko eni ia temou kai ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi vai: ʻilonga ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he vai ʻoku ne maʻu ʻae kaponga, mo e ʻuno, ʻi he tahi mo e ngaahi vaitafe, ko ia te mou kai.

The animals living in the water that you may eat are all those that have fins and scales, whether in the ocean or in the rivers.

10 Pea ko e meʻa ʻi tahi, pea ʻi he ngaahi vaitafe, ʻoku ʻikai maʻu ʻae kaponga mo e ʻuno, ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ngaue ʻi he vai, pe ko ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku moʻui ʻi he ngaahi vai, ko e meʻa kovi ia kiate kimoutolu.

But all living creatures that do not have fins and scales in the ocean or rivers, including all that move in the water and all the living creatures that are in the water— they must be detested by you.

11 ‌ʻIo, ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ia ko e meʻa fakalielia: ʻoua naʻa mou kai honau sino, pea ko honau kakano ko e meʻa fakalielia ia kiate kimoutolu.

Since they must be detested, you must not eat of their meat; also, their carcasses must be detested.

12 ‌ʻIlonga ʻaia ʻi he ngaahi vai ʻoku ʻikai hano kaponga pe ʻuno, ke ʻiate kimoutolu ia ko e meʻa fakalielia.

Whatever has no fins or scales in the water must be detested by you.

13 Pea ko eni ia ʻi he ngaahi manu kapakau ʻe tapu kiate kimoutolu; ʻe ʻikai temou kai ia, he ko e meʻa fakalielia ia kiate kimoutolu: ko e ʻikale, mo e ʻosifalesi, mo e ʻosipale,

The birds you must detest and that you must not eat are these: the eagle, the vulture,

14 Mo e volita, mo e kaite ʻi hona faʻahinga.

the kite, any kind of falcon,

15 ‌ʻAe leveni kotoa pē ʻi honau faʻahinga,

every kind of raven,

16 Mo e ʻositalesi, mo e taiseni ʻoe poʻuli, mo e koku, mo e taiseni ʻi hono faʻahinga,

the horned owl and the screech owl, the seagull, and any kind of hawk.

17 Mo e lulu iiki, mo e komolaniti, mo e lulu lahi,

You must also detest the little owl and the great owl, the cormorant,

18 Mo e suani, mo e lofa, mo e Lahami,

the white owl and the barn owl, the osprey,

19 Mo e sitoaka, mo e motuku ʻi hono faʻahinga, mo e lapiuingi, mo e peka.

the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, and also the bat.

20 Ko e ngaahi manu kapakau ʻoku totolo, ʻo ʻalu ʻi honau vaʻe, ko e meʻa fakalielia ia kiate kimoutolu.

All winged insects that walk on four legs are detestable to you.

21 Ka ko e ngaahi meʻa ni temou kai ʻi he ngaahi meʻa puna ʻoku totolo, ʻo ʻalu ʻi hono vaʻe, ʻaia ʻoku maʻu ʻae vaʻe ʻi ʻolunga ʻi honau vaʻe, ke hopo ʻaki ʻi he kelekele;

Yet you may eat any of the flying insects that also walk on four legs if they have jointed legs for hopping on the ground.

22 ‌ʻIo, ko eni ia ʻi ai temou kai; ko e heʻe lalahi ʻi honau faʻahinga, ko e solami ʻi honau faʻahinga, mo e kakoli ʻi honau faʻahinga, mo e kakapi ʻi honau faʻahinga:

You may also eat any kind of locust, katydid, cricket, or grasshopper.

23 Ka ko e ngaahi manupuna kotoa pē ʻoku totolo, ʻaia ʻoku veʻe fā: ko e meʻa fakalielia ia kiate kimoutolu.

But all the flying insects that have four feet must be detested by you.

24 Pea temou taʻemaʻa koeʻuhi ko ia he ko ia ʻe ala ki honau ʻangaʻanga ʻe taʻemaʻa ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi.

You will become unclean until evening by these animals if you touch a carcass of one of them.

25 Pea ko ia ʻe toʻo ha potu ʻo honau sino ʻe fō ʻe ia hono ngaahi kofu, pea ʻe taʻemaʻa ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi.

Whoever picks up one of their carcasses must wash his clothes and remain unclean until evening.

26 Ko e sino ʻoe manu kotoa pē ʻoku vahe ua hono pesipesi ka ʻoku ʻikai vaʻe mafahifahi, pe toe lamu ʻene kai, ʻoku nau taʻemaʻa kiate kimoutolu: ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ala ki ai ʻe taʻemaʻa ia.

Every animal which has a split hoof that is not completely divided or which does not chew the cud is unclean to you. Everyone who touches them will be unclean.

27 Pea ʻilonga ʻaia ʻi he ngaahi manu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ʻi hono ʻaofivaʻe ʻo fakaveʻe fā; ʻoku nau taʻemaʻa kiate kimoutolu: ko ia ʻoku ala ki honau sino ʻe taʻemaʻa ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi.

Whatever walks on its paws among all the animals that walk on all four legs, they are unclean to you. Whoever touches such a carcass will be unclean until the evening.

28 Pea ko ia ʻoku ne fua honau sino ʻe fō ʻe ia hono ngaahi kofu, pea taʻemaʻa ia ke ʻoua ke efiafi: ʻoku nau taʻemaʻa kiate kimoutolu.

Whoever picks up such a carcass must wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening. These animals will be unclean to you.

29 Ko e ngaahi meʻa ni ʻoku totolo ʻi he kelekele ʻoku taʻemaʻa kiate kimoutolu; ko e uiseli, mo e kumā, mo e fonu papālangi ʻi hono faʻahinga.

Of the animals that creep on the ground, these are the animals that will be unclean to you: the weasel, the rat, every kind of large lizard,

30 Mo e felite, mo e fokai, mo e moko, mo e sineli, mo e mole.

the gecko, the monitor lizard, the lizard, the skink, and the chameleon.

31 Ko eni ia ʻoku taʻemaʻa kiate kimoutolu ʻi he meʻa ʻoku totolo; ko ia ʻe ala ki ai ka kuo mate, ʻe taʻemaʻa ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi.

Of all the animals that creep, these are the animals which will be unclean to you. Whoever touches them when they are dead will be unclean until evening.

32 Pea ʻilonga ha meʻa ʻe tō ki ai ha taha ʻiate kinautolu ka kuo mate, ʻe taʻemaʻa ia; pe ko e ipu ʻakau ia, pe ko e kofu, pe ko e kili, pe ko e kato, ha ipu, pe ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku fai ʻaki ha ngāue, ʻoku tonu ke tuku ia ki he vai, pea tuku ke taʻemaʻa ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi; pea ʻe fakamaʻa ai ia.

If any of them dies and falls on anything, that thing will be unclean, whether it is made of wood, cloth, leather, or sackcloth. Whatever it is and whatever it is used for, it must be put into water; it will be unclean until evening. Then it will be clean.

33 Pea ʻilonga ha ipu ʻumea ʻaia ʻe tō hanau taha ki ai, ko ia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻe taʻemaʻa ia; pea temou foaʻi ia.

For every clay pot into or onto which any unclean animal falls, whatever is in the pot will become unclean, and you must destroy that pot.

34 ‌ʻIlonga ʻae meʻakai ʻoku ngofua ke kai, pea kuo tō ki ai ʻae vai ko ia ʻe taʻemaʻa ia; pea ko e meʻainu kotoa pē ʻaia ʻoku ngofua ke inu ʻi he ngaahi ipu pehē, ʻe taʻemaʻa ia.

Any food that could be eaten but has water on it from such a pot is unclean. Any liquid that is for drinking from such a pot is unclean.

35 Pea ʻilonga ha meʻa ʻe tō ki ai ha konga ʻo honau sino, ʻe taʻemaʻa ia; pe ko e ngotoʻumu, pe ko e hiliʻanga kulo, ʻe maumauʻi ia; he ʻoku nau taʻemaʻa, pea tenau taʻemaʻa kiate kimoutolu.

Anything that one of their carcasses falls on becomes unclean; if it is an oven or small stove, it must be broken to pieces. They are unclean and they must remain unclean to you.

36 Ka koeʻuhi ko e vai moʻui, pe ha luo ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae vai lahi, ʻe maʻa ia: ka ko ia ʻoku ala ki honau sino ʻe taʻemaʻa ia.

A spring or cistern for collecting water remains clean; but anyone who touches their carcass is unclean.

37 Pea kapau ʻe tō ha potu ʻo honau sino ki he tengaʻi ʻakau ʻaia ʻoku tuku ki he tō taʻu, ʻe maʻa ia.

If any part of their carcass falls upon any seeds for planting, those seeds will still be clean.

38 Pea kapau kuo lingi ha vai ki he ngaahi tenga, pea tō ki ai ha potu ʻo honau sino ki ai, ʻe taʻemaʻa ia kiate kimoutolu.

But if water is put on the seeds, and if any part of their carcass falls on them, then they will be unclean to you.

39 Pea kapau ʻoku mate mahaki ha manu, ʻaia ʻoku ngofua ke kai: ko ia ʻoku ala ki hono sino, ʻe taʻemaʻa ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi.

If any animal that you may eat dies, then he who touches the carcass will be unclean until evening.

40 Pea ko ia ʻoku ne kai mei hono sino, ʻe fō hono kofu, pea ʻe taʻemaʻa ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi; mo ia foki ʻoku ne fua hono sino ʻo ia, ʻe fō ʻe ia hono kofu, pea ʻe taʻemaʻa ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi.

Whoever eats any of that carcass must wash his clothes and be unclean until evening. Anyone who picks up such a carcass will wash his clothes and be unclean until evening.

41 Pea ko e meʻa totolo kotoa pē ʻoku totolo ki he kelekele ko e meʻa taʻemaʻa ia; ʻe ʻikai kai ia.

Every animal that creeps on the ground is to be detested; it must not be eaten.

42 ‌ʻIlonga ʻaia ʻoku ngaolo ki hono kete, mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu veʻe fā, mo ia ʻi he ngaahi meʻa totolo ʻi he kelekele ʻoku lahi hono vaʻe, ʻe ʻikai temou kai ia he ʻoku nau taʻemaʻa.

Whatever crawls on its belly, and whatever walks on all four legs, or whatever has many feet—all the animals that creep on the ground, these you must not eat, for they are to be detested.

43 ‌ʻOua naʻa mou fakalieliaʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku totolo; pea ʻoua naʻa fakaʻuliʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi ai, koeʻuhi ke mou taʻemaʻa ai.

You must not make yourselves unclean with any living creatures that creep; you must not make yourselves unclean with them, that you should be made impure by them.

44 He ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua: ko ia temou fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻakimoutolu, pea temou māʻoniʻoni; he ʻoku ou māʻoniʻoni: pea ʻoua naʻa mou ʻuliʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ha meʻa totolo ʻe taha ʻoku totolo ʻi he funga kelekele.

For I am Yahweh your God. You are to keep yourselves holy, therefore, and be holy, because I am holy. You must not defile yourselves with any kind of animal that moves about on the ground.

45 He ko au Sihova ʻoku ou ʻomi ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ke hoko ko homou ʻOtua: ko ia temou māʻoniʻoni ai, he ʻoku ou māʻoniʻoni.

For I am Yahweh, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. You must therefore be holy, for I am holy.

46 Ko eni ʻae fono ki he ngaahi manu lahi, pea ki he fanga manu kapakau, pea ki he meʻa moʻui kotoa pē ʻoku ngaue ʻi he ngaahi vai, mo e ngaahi meʻa totolo kotoa pē ʻi he funga kelekele.

This is the law regarding the animals, the birds, every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps on the ground,

47 Ke fai kehekehe ki he meʻa taʻemaʻa mo e meʻa maʻa, pea ki he manu ʻoku ngofua ke kai mo e manu ʻoku ʻikai ngofua ke kai.

for which a distinction is to be made between the unclean and the clean, and between the living things that may be eaten and the living things that may not be eaten.'”
