Levitiko 16

1 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova hili ʻae mate ʻae ongo foha ʻo ʻElone, ʻi heʻena fai ʻae feilaulau ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea na mate;

And the Lord spoke to Moses, after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they were destroyed for offering strange fire.

2 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Lea ki ho taʻokete ko ʻElone, ke ʻoua naʻa faʻa haʻu ia ki he potu māʻoniʻoni ʻi he loto puipui ʻi he ʻao ʻoe nofoʻanga ʻaloʻofa, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he funga puha; telia naʻa mate ia: he te u fakahāhā au ʻi he nofoʻanga ʻaloʻofa.

And he instructed him, saying: Speak to your brother Aaron, so that he may not, at any time, enter into the Sanctuary, which is within the veil, before the propitiatory by which the ark is covered, so that he may not die, (for I will appear in a cloud above the oracle)

3 ‌ʻE pehē ni ʻae haʻu ʻa ʻElone ki he potu māʻoniʻoni: ʻe ʻomi ʻe ia ʻae pulu mui ko e feilaulau maʻae angahala, mo e sipitangata ki he feilaulau tutu.”

unless he will have done these things beforehand. He shall offer a calf for sin, and a ram as a holocaust.

4 Pea ʻe ʻai ʻe ia ʻae kofu tupenu hinehina māʻoniʻoni, pea ke ʻai ki hono sino ʻae kofu vaʻe tupenu hinehina, pea ke nonoʻo ʻaki ʻae noʻo tupenu hinehina, pea tatā ʻaki ʻae tatā tupenu hinehina: ko e ngaahi kofu māʻoniʻoni ʻeni; ko ia te ne kaukau ai hono sino ʻaki ʻae vai, pea ʻai ia [kiate ia].

He shall be vested with a linen tunic. He shall conceal his nakedness with linen undergarments. He shall be wrapped with a linen belt, and he shall impose a linen headdress on his head. For these are holy vestments. All of these he shall put on, after he has been washed.

5 Pea te ne toʻo ʻe ia mei he fakataha ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻae ʻuhikiʻi kosi ʻe ua ko e feilaulau maʻae angahala, mo e sipitangata ʻe taha ko e feilaulau tutu.

And he shall receive, from the entire multitude of the sons of Israel, two he-goats for sin, and one ram as a holocaust.

6 Pea ʻe ʻatu ʻe ʻElone ʻae pulu ki he feilaulau maʻae angahala, ʻaia ʻoku maʻana, ʻo fai ʻaki ʻae fakalelei maʻana pea mo hono fale.

And when he has presented the calf, and has prayed for himself and for his own house,

7 Pea ʻe toʻo ʻe ia ʻae ongo kosi, ʻo ʻatu ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai.

he shall cause the two he-goats to stand in the sight of the Lord at the entrance to the tabernacle of the testimony.

8 Pea ʻe fai ʻae talotalo ʻe ʻElone ki he ongo kosi: ke vahe ʻae taha maʻa Sihova, pea ko e taha ko e kosi fetuku.

And casting lots over them both, one is to be offered to the Lord, and the other is to be the emissary goat.

9 Pea ʻe ʻomi ʻe ʻElone ʻae kosi naʻe talotalo ke vahe maʻa Sihova, ʻo ʻatu ia ko e feilaulau maʻae angahala.

The one whose lot fell out to be offered to the Lord, he shall offer for sin.

10 Ka ko e kosi, ʻaia naʻe talotalo ke vahe ke hoko ko e kosi fetuku, ʻe ʻatu moʻui pe ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ke fai ʻaki ia ʻae fakalelei, pea ke tukuange ia ke ʻalu ki he toafa ngaongao ko e kosi fetuku.

But the one who is to be the emissary goat shall stand before the Lord, so that he may pour the prayers upon him, and may send him away into the wilderness.

11 Pea ʻe ʻomi ʻe ʻElone ʻae pulu ki he feilaulau maʻae angahala, ʻaia ʻoku ʻatu maʻana, pea ne fai ʻaki ʻae fakalelei maʻana, pea mo hono fale, pea ʻe tāmateʻi ʻe ia ʻae pulu ʻoe feilaulau maʻae angahala, ʻaia ʻoku ʻatu maʻana.

After these things have been duly celebrated, he shall offer the calf, and praying for himself and for his own house, he shall immolate it.

12 Pea ʻe toʻo ʻe ia ʻae ipu ʻaingaafi ʻoku fonu ʻi he malalaʻi afi vela mei he funga feilaulauʻanga ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea mo e falukunga lahi ʻoe meʻa namu kakala kuo tuki ke iiki, pea te ne ʻomi ia ki loto ʻi he puipui:

And taking up the censer, which he has filled from the burning coals of the altar, and drawing up with his hands the aromatic compound for incense, he shall enter within the veil, into the holy place,

13 Pea ʻe ʻai ʻe ia ʻae meʻa namu kakala ki he afi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, koeʻuhi ke ʻufiʻufi ʻe he kohu ʻoe meʻa namu kakala ʻae nofoʻanga ʻaloʻofa, ʻaia ʻoku ne ʻufiʻufi ʻae fuakava, telia naʻa mate ai ia:

so that when the aromatics are placed upon the fire, its cloud and vapor may cover the oracle, which is above the testimony, and he may not die.

14 Pea ʻe toʻo ʻe ia mei he toto ʻoe pulu, ʻo luluku ʻaki hono tuhu ki he nofoʻanga ʻaloʻofa ki he potu hopoʻangalaʻā; pea te ne luluku ʻae toto ʻi he ʻao ʻoe nofoʻanga ʻaloʻofa ʻaki ʻa hono tuhu ke liunga fitu.

Likewise, he shall take some of the blood of the calf, and sprinkle it with his finger seven times opposite the propitiatory, toward the east.

15 Pea te ne toki tāmateʻi ʻe ia ʻae kosi ki he feilaulau maʻae angahala, ʻaia ʻoku maʻae kakai, pea ʻe ʻomi hono toto ki loto ʻi he puipui, pea ʻe fai ʻaki ʻae toto ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fai ʻaki ʻae toto ʻoe pulu, ʻo luluku ia ki he nofoʻanga ʻaloʻofa, pea ʻi he ʻao ʻoe nofoʻanga ʻaloʻofa:

And when he has slain the he-goat for the sin of the people, he shall carry its blood within the veil, just as he was instructed to do with the blood of the calf, so that he may sprinkle it away from the area of the oracle,

16 Pea te ne fai ha fakalelei koeʻuhi ko e potu māʻoniʻoni, ko e meʻa ʻi he taʻemaʻa ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau ngaahi talangataʻa mo ʻenau ngaahi angahala: pea ʻe fai pehē ʻe ia ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, ʻaia ʻoku tuʻu ʻiate kinautolu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ʻenau ngaahi meʻa taʻemaʻa.

and so that he may expiate the Sanctuary from the uncleanness of the sons of Israel, and from their prevarications and every one of their sins. According to this rite, he shall act toward the tabernacle of the testimony, which is fixed among them in the midst of the filth of their habitation.

17 Pea ʻe ʻikai ʻalu ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha ha tangata ʻe tokotaha, ʻoka hū ia ki ai ke fai ʻae fakalelei ʻoe potu māʻoniʻoni, kaeʻoua ke haʻu ia kituʻa, pea ʻosi ʻene fai ʻe ia ʻae fakalelei maʻana, pea mo hono fale, pea koeʻuhi ko e kakai kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli.

Let no man be in the tabernacle when the high priest enters the Sanctuary in order to pray for himself, and for his house, and for the entire assembly of Israel, until he exits.

18 Pea te ne ʻalu kituʻa ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea fai ʻae fakalelei koeʻuhi ko ia; pea ʻe toʻo ʻae toto ʻoe pulu, mo e toto ʻoe kosi, pea ʻe ʻai ia ki he ngaahi nifo ʻoe feilaulauʻanga ʻo takatakai.

And when he has exited to the altar which is before the Lord, let him pray for himself, and taking the blood of the calf, and of the he-goat, let him pour it upon its horns all around.

19 Pea te ne luluku ʻae toto ki ai ʻaki hono tuhu ke liunga fitu, ʻo fakamaʻa ia, ʻo fakatapui ia mei he ngaahi taʻemaʻa ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.

And sprinkling with his finger seven times, let him expiate and sanctify it from the uncleanness of the sons of Israel.

20 Pea ʻoka hili ʻene fakaʻosi hono fakalelei ʻoe potu māʻoniʻoni, mo e fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, mo e feilaulauʻanga, ʻe toki ʻomi ʻe ia ʻae kosi moʻui:

After he has cleansed the Sanctuary, and the tabernacle, and the altar, then let him offer the living goat.

21 Pea ʻe hilifaki ʻe ʻElone hono nima fakatouʻosi ki he ʻulu ʻoe kosi moʻui, ʻo vete ki ai ʻae ngaahi hia kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, mo ʻenau ngaahi talangataʻa kotoa pē, mo ʻenau ngaahi angahala, ʻo ne hilifaki ia ki he ʻulu ʻoe kosi, pea te ne fekau ke tataki atu ia ki he toafa ʻe ha tangata ʻoku ngalingali mo ia:

And placing both hands upon its head, let him confess all the iniquities of the sons of Israel, and all of their offenses and sins. And calling these down upon its head, he shall send it away, by means of a man prepared to do so, into the desert.

22 Pea ʻe fua ʻe he kosi ʻo ʻave ki he fonua lala, ʻenau ngaahi hia kotoa pē: pea te ne tukuange ʻe ia ʻae kosi ʻi he toafa.

And when the goat has carried all their iniquities into a solitary land, and has been released into the desert,

23 Pea ʻe haʻu ʻa ʻElone ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, pea toʻo hono ngaahi kofu tupenu hinehina, ʻaia naʻa ne ʻai ʻi heʻene ʻalu ki he potu māʻoniʻoni, pea te ne tuku ia ʻi ai:

Aaron shall return into the tabernacle of the testimony. And placing aside the vestments, which he had worn before when he entered into the Sanctuary, and leaving them there,

24 Pea te ne kaukau ʻe ia hono sino ʻaki ʻae vai ʻi he potu māʻoniʻoni, pea ʻai hono kofu, pea ʻalu atu, pea te ne ʻatu ʻae feilaulau tutu ʻaʻana, mo e feilaulau tutu ʻae kakai, ʻo ne fai ʻae fakalelei maʻana, pea mo e kakai.

he shall wash his flesh in the holy place, and he shall be clothed in his own garments. And departing afterwards, he shall present his own holocaust and that of the people: he shall pray as much for himself as for the people.

25 Pea ko e ngako ʻoe feilaulau maʻae angahala ʻe tutu ʻe ia ia ki he feilaulauʻanga.

And the fat which is offered for sins, he shall burn upon the altar.

26 Pea ko ia naʻa ne tukuange ʻae kosi ko e kosi fetuku ʻe fō ʻe ia hono kofu, pea kaukau hono sino ʻi he vai pea hili ia, ʻe haʻu ia ki he ʻapitanga.

Yet truly, he who has sent away the emissary goat shall wash his clothes and his body with water, and so he shall enter into the camp.

27 Pea ko e pulu ki he feilaulau maʻae angahala, mo e kosi ki he feilaulau maʻae angahala, ʻaia naʻe ʻomi hono toto ke fai ʻaki ʻae fakalelei ʻi he potu māʻoniʻoni, ʻe fetuku ia kituaʻā ʻi he ʻapitanga: pea ʻe tutu ʻi he afi hona kili, mo hona sino, pea mo hona kinohaʻa.

But the calf and the he-goat, which were immolated for sin, and whose blood was brought into the Sanctuary to complete the expiation, these shall be carried outside the camp and be burned with fire: as with their skins, so also with their flesh and dung.

28 Pea ko ia ʻoku fai ʻa hono tutu ʻe fō ʻe ia hono kofu, pea kaukau hono sino ʻi he vai, pea toki haʻu ia ki he ʻapitanga.

And whoever will have burned them shall wash his clothes and flesh with water, and so he shall enter into the camp.

29 Pea ko e fekau tuʻumaʻu ʻeni kiate kimoutolu ʻo taʻengata: koeʻuhi ʻi hono fitu ʻoe māhina, ʻi hono hongofulu [ʻoe ʻaho ]ʻoe māhina ke mou fakavaivai ʻakimoutolu, pea ʻoua naʻa fai ha momoʻi ngāue, pe ko ha tokotaha ʻo homou fonua pe ko ha tokotaha ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻiate kimoutolu.

And this shall be to you an everlasting ordinance. In the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict your souls, and you shall do no work, neither someone native born, nor the newcomer who sojourns among you.

30 Koeʻuhi ʻe fai ʻe he taulaʻeiki ke fakalelei maʻamoutolu, ke fakamaʻa ʻakimoutolu, koeʻuhi ke mou maʻa mei hoʻomou ngaahi angahala ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.

On this day, there shall be atonement for you, and also a cleansing from all your sins. You shall be cleansed in the sight of the Lord.

31 ‌ʻE ʻiate kimoutolu ia ko e Sāpate mālōlō, pea te mou fakavaivai ʻakimoutolu, ko e fekau ia fai maʻu ʻo taʻengata.

For it is a Sabbath of rest, and you shall afflict your souls as a perpetual observance.

32 Pea ko e taulaʻeiki ko ia ʻaia kuo ne fakanofo, mo ne fakatapui ʻe ia ke ngāue ʻi he ngāue fakataulaʻeiki ʻo fetongi ʻene tamai, ʻe fai ʻe ia ʻae fakalelei, pea ʻe ʻai ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi kofu tupenu hinehina, ʻio, ʻae ngaahi kofu māʻoniʻoni:

And the priest who has been anointed, and whose hands have been consecrated to exercise the priesthood in the place of his father, shall make atonement. And he shall be clothed with the linen robe and the holy vestments.

33 Pea ʻe fai ʻe ia ʻae fakalelei koeʻuhi ko e potu tapu lahi, pea fai ʻe ia ʻae fakalelei koeʻuhi ko e fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, pea koeʻuhi ko e feilaulauʻanga, pea ʻe fai ʻe ia ʻae fakalelei maʻae ngaahi taulaʻeiki, pea koeʻuhi ko e kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fakataha.

And he shall expiate the Sanctuary and the tabernacle of the testimony and the altar, likewise the priest and all the people.

34 Pea ko e fekau fai maʻu eni ʻo taʻengata kiate kimoutolu, ke fai ʻae fakalelei maʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo tuʻo taha ʻi he taʻu koeʻuhi ko ʻenau ngaahi angahala. Pea naʻa ne fai ia ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.

And this shall be to you a perpetual law, that you pray for the sons of Israel, and for all their sins once a year. Therefore, he did just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
