Levitiko 24
1 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
Then the LORD said to Moses,
2 Fekau ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi kenau ʻomi kiate koe ʻae lolo ʻolive lelei kuo tuki ki he maama, koeʻuhi ke ulo lelei maʻuaipē ʻae maama.
“Command the Israelites to bring you pure oil of pressed olives for the light, to keep the lamps burning continually.
3 ʻE teuteu ia ʻe ʻElone ʻituʻa ʻi he puipui ʻoe fuakava ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, mei he efiafi ki he pongipongi ʻe fai maʻuaipē ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova; ko e fekau fai maʻu pe ia ʻi homou toʻutangata kotoa pē.
Outside the veil of the Testimony in the Tent of Meeting, Aaron is to tend the lamps continually before the LORD from evening until morning. This is to be a permanent statute for the generations to come.
4 Ke te u maʻuaipē ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi foʻi maama ki he tuʻunga maama tapu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
He shall tend the lamps on the pure gold lampstand before the LORD continually.
5 Pea ke toʻo ʻae mahoaʻa lelei, ʻo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae foʻi mā ʻe hongofulu ma ua: ʻe ʻai ʻae oma ʻe ua ʻi he foʻi mā pe taha.
You are also to take fine flour and bake twelve loaves, using two-tenths of an ephah for each loaf,
6 Pea te ke fokotuʻu ia ʻi he ʻotu ʻe ua, ke taki ono ʻi he ʻotu pe taha, ki he palepale māʻoniʻoni ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
and set them in two rows—six per row—on the table of pure gold before the LORD.
7 Pea te ke ʻai ki he ʻotu fakatouʻosi pe ʻae laipeno moʻonia, koeʻuhi ke ʻi he mā ia ko e meʻa fakamanatu, ʻio, ko e feilaulau kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae afi kia Sihova.
And you are to place pure frankincense near each row, so that it may serve as a memorial portion for the bread, an offering made by fire to the LORD.
8 ʻE ʻai ia ʻo teuteu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻo fai maʻu pe ʻi he Sāpate kotoa pē, kuo toʻo ia mei he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he fuakava ʻoku taʻengata.
Every Sabbath day the bread is to be set out before the LORD on behalf of the Israelites as a permanent covenant.
9 Pea ʻe ʻia ʻElone ia mo hono ngaahi foha; pea kenau kai ia ʻi he potu māʻoniʻoni: he ko e meʻa māʻoniʻoni lahi kiate ia ʻi he ngaahi feilaulau kia Sihova kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae afi ʻi he fekau tuʻumaʻu.
It belongs to Aaron and his sons, who are to eat it in a holy place; for it is to him a most holy part of the offerings made by fire to the LORD—his portion forever.”
10 Pea naʻe ʻalu kituaʻā mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻae tama ʻae fefine ʻIsileli, ka ko ʻene tamai ko e tangata ʻIsipite; pea ko e tama ʻae fefine ʻIsileli, mo e tangata ʻIsileli, naʻa na fekuki fakataha ʻi he ʻapitanga:
Now the son of an Israelite mother and an Egyptian father went out among the Israelites, and a fight broke out in the camp between him and an Israelite.
11 Pea naʻe kape ʻae tama ʻae fefine ʻIsileli ki he huafa ʻo Sihova ʻo lea kovi. Pea naʻa nau ʻomi ia kia Mōsese, (pea ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē, ko Selomiti, ko e ʻofefine ʻo Tipili ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo Tani: )
The son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name with a curse. So they brought him to Moses. (His mother’s name was Shelomith daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.)
12 Pea naʻa nau tuku haʻisia ia, ke ʻoua ke nau ʻilo ʻae finangalo ʻo Sihova ki ai.
They placed him in custody until the will of the LORD should be made clear to them.
13 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
Then the LORD said to Moses,
14 “Ko ia kuo kape, ʻomi ia kituaʻā mei he ʻapitanga; pea ko kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe fanongo ki ai ke hilifaki honau nima ki hono ʻulu, pea ke tolongaki ia ʻe he fakataha kotoa pē ʻaki ʻae maka.
“Take the blasphemer outside the camp, and have all who heard him lay their hands on his head; then have the whole assembly stone him.
15 Pea ke lea koe ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, Ko ia ʻoku kapeʻi hono ʻOtua ʻe fua ʻe ia ʻene angahala.
And you are to tell the Israelites, ‘If anyone curses his God, he shall bear the consequences of his sin.
16 Pea ko ia ʻoku ne kapeʻi ʻae huafa ʻo Sihova, ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia, ʻe tolongaki ia ʻaki ʻae maka ʻe he kakai kotoa pē: ko e muli ia pe ko ia kuo tupu ʻi he fonua, ʻoka kapeʻi ʻe ia ʻae huafa ʻo Sihova ʻe tāmateʻi ia.
Whoever blasphemes the name of the LORD must surely be put to death; the whole assembly must surely stone him, whether he is a foreign resident or native; if he blasphemes the Name, he must be put to death.
17 “Pea ko ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ha tangata ʻe tāmateʻi moʻoni ia.
And if a man takes the life of anyone else, he must surely be put to death.
18 Pea ko ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ha manu ʻe totongi ke tatau ia; ko e manu ki he manu.
Whoever kills an animal must make restitution—life for life.
19 “Pea kapau ʻe fakameleʻi ʻe ha tangata hono kaungāʻapi ʻe fai kiate ia ʻo hangē ko ia kuo ne fai
If anyone injures his neighbor, whatever he has done must be done to him:
20 Ko e lavea ki he lavea, ko e mata ki he mata, ko e nifo ki he nifo: ʻo hangē ko ʻene fakameleʻi ha tangata, ʻe pehē pe hono fai kiate ia.
fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. Just as he injured the other person, the same must be inflicted on him.
21 Pea ko ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ha manu, ʻe ʻatu ke tatau ia: pea ko ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ha tangata, ʻe tāmateʻi ia.
Whoever kills an animal must make restitution, but whoever kills a man must be put to death.
22 Ke mou maʻu ʻae fono pe taha, ki he muli, mo ia ʻoku ʻi homou fonua: he ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.”
You are to have the same standard of law for the foreign resident and the native; for I am the LORD your God.’”
23 Pea naʻe lea ʻa Mōsese ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi kenau ʻomi ʻaia naʻe kape kituaʻā mei he ʻapitanga, ʻo tolongaki ʻaki ia ʻae maka. Pea naʻe fai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.
Then Moses spoke to the Israelites, and they took the blasphemer outside the camp and stoned him. So the Israelites did as the LORD had commanded Moses.
