Levitiko 27

1 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo tala kiate kinautolu, ʻOka fai ʻe ha tangata ha fuakava mamafa, ʻe ʻa Sihova ʻae tatau ʻoe meʻa ko ia te ke lau ʻe koe.

“Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘When a man consecrates a person to the LORD in a vow, according to your valuation,

3 Pea ko hoʻo fakatatau ʻae tangata mei he taʻu ʻe uofulu ʻo ʻene motuʻa ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻe onongofulu ʻo ʻene motuʻa, ʻio, ko hoʻo fakatatau ko e sikeli siliva ʻe fitungofulu, ʻo fakatatau ki he sikeli ʻoe faletapu.

your valuation of a male from twenty years old to sixty years old shall be fifty shekels of silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary.

4 Pea kapau ko e fefine ia, ko hoʻo fakatatau, ko e sikeli ʻe tolungofulu.

If she is a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels.

5 Pea kapau ko e taʻu ʻe nima ʻene motuʻa ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻe uofulu, pea ko hoʻo fakatatau ki he tangata ko e sikeli ʻe uofulu, pea ki he fefine ko e sikeli ʻe hongofulu.

If the person is from five years old to twenty years old, then your valuation shall be for a male twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels.

6 Pea kapau ko e māhina pe taha ʻene motuʻa ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻe nima ʻene motuʻa, pea ko hoʻo fakatatau ki he tangata ko e sikeli siliva ʻe nima, pea ko hoʻo fakatatau ki he fefine ko e sikeli siliva ʻe tolu.

If the person is from a month old to five years old, then your valuation shall be for a male five shekels of silver, and for a female your valuation shall be three shekels of silver.

7 Pea kapau ʻoku onongofulu taʻu mo e taʻu niʻihi ʻene motuʻa; kapau ko e tangata, ko hoʻo fakatatau ki ai ko e sikeli ʻe hongofulu ma nima, pea ki he fefine ko e sikeli ʻe hongofulu.

If the person is from sixty years old and upward; if he is a male, then your valuation shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels.

8 Pea kapau ʻoku masiva ʻaupito ia ʻi he meʻa kuo ke lau, pea te ne fakahā ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe taulaʻeiki, pea ʻe fakatatau ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki; pea ke fai ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻi heʻene fakatatau, ʻo taau mo hono mafai ʻo ia ʻaia naʻa ne fuakava.

But if he is poorer than your valuation, then he shall be set before the priest, and the priest shall assign a value to him. The priest shall assign a value according to his ability to pay.

9 Pea kapau ko e manu, ʻaia ʻoku ʻomi ʻe he kakai ʻo ʻatu kia Sihova, ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku foaki ʻe ha tangata ʻi he meʻa pehē kia Sihova ʻe tapu ia.

“‘If it is an animal of which men offer an offering to the LORD, all that any man gives of such to the LORD becomes holy.

10 ‌ʻE ʻikai te ne fakakehe ia, pe fetongi ia, ʻae lelei ki he kovi, pe ha kovi ki he lelei: pea kapau ʻoku ne fetongi ʻae manu ʻaki ʻae manu, pea ko ia mo ia naʻe fetongi ʻaki ia ʻe fakatou tapu ia.

He shall not alter it, nor exchange it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good. If he shall at all exchange animal for animal, then both it and that for which it is exchanged shall be holy.

11 Pea kapau ko e manu taʻemaʻa ia, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai tenau fai ʻaki ha feilaulau kia Sihova, te ne toki ʻatu ʻae manu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe taulaʻeiki:

If it is any unclean animal, of which they do not offer as an offering to the LORD, then he shall set the animal before the priest;

12 Pea ke fakatatau ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki, pe ʻoku lelei pe ʻoku kovi: pea hangē ko hoʻo fakatatau ʻe koe ʻoku taulaʻeiki ko ia pe ʻe fai.

and the priest shall evaluate it, whether it is good or bad. As the priest evaluates it, so it shall be.

13 Pea kapau ʻoku loto ia ke huhuʻi ia, pea ʻe fakalahi ʻaki ia hono nima ʻoe vahe ki hoʻo fakatatau.

But if he will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of it to its valuation.

14 Pea kapau ʻoku fakatapui ʻe ha tangata hono fale ke māʻoniʻoni ia kia Sihova, pea ke fakatatau ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki, he ʻoku lelei ia pe kovi: pea hangē ko ia ʻoku fakatatau ia ki ai, ʻe maʻu pe ia.

“‘When a man dedicates his house to be holy to the LORD, then the priest shall evaluate it, whether it is good or bad. As the priest evaluates it, so it shall stand.

15 Pea kapau ʻoku loto ʻaia naʻa ne fakatapui ia ke huhuʻi hono fale, pea ʻe fakalahi ʻaki ia hono nima ʻoe vahe ʻoe koloa ʻo hoʻo fakatatau, pea ʻe ʻoʻona ia.

If he who dedicates it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall be his.

16 Pea kapau ʻoku fakatapui ʻe ha tangata kia Sihova ha potu ngoue ʻi hono potu fonua, pea ko hoʻo fakatatau, ʻe fakatatau ki he tenga ʻo ia: ko e oma ʻe taha ʻoe tengaʻi paʻale ʻe fakatatau ia ki he sikeli siliva ʻe nimangofulu.

“‘If a man dedicates to the LORD part of the field of his possession, then your valuation shall be according to the seed for it. The sowing of a homer of barley shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.

17 Kapau ʻoku ne fakatapu ʻene ngoue mei he taʻu ʻoe siupeli, ʻe tuʻumaʻu ia ʻo tatau mo hoʻo fakatatau.

If he dedicates his field from the Year of Jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand.

18 Pea kapau ʻoku ne fakatapui ʻene ngoue ka kuo hili ʻae siupeli, pea ʻe lau ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻae paʻanga kiate ia ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi taʻu ʻoku toe, ʻio, ʻo aʻu atu ki he taʻu ʻoe siupeli, pea ʻe fakasiʻisiʻi ia mei hoʻo fakatatau.

But if he dedicates his field after the Jubilee, then the priest shall reckon to him the money according to the years that remain to the Year of Jubilee; and an abatement shall be made from your valuation.

19 Pea ko ia naʻa ne fakatapui ʻae ngoue, kapau ʻoku tokanga ia ke huhuʻi ia, pea ke fakalahi ʻaki ʻe ia ia hono vahe nima ʻoe koloa ʻo hoʻo fakatatau, pea ʻe hoko ia kiate ia.

If he who dedicated the field will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall remain his.

20 Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai loto ia ke huhuʻi ʻae ngoue, pea kapau kuo ne fakatau ia ki he tangata ʻe taha, ʻe ʻikai toe huhuʻi ia.

If he will not redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more;

21 Ka ko e ngoue ʻi hono tukuange ʻi he siupeli, ʻe tapu ia kia Sihova, ʻo hangē ha ngoue kuo fakatapui: ʻe hoko ia ke ʻoe taulaʻeiki.

but the field, when it goes out in the Jubilee, shall be holy to the LORD, as a devoted field. It shall be owned by the priests.

22 Pea kapau ʻoku ai ha tangata ʻoku ne fakatapui kia Sihova ʻae ngoue naʻa ne fakatau, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he ngaahi ngoue ʻo hono tofiʻa;

“‘If he dedicates a field to the LORD which he has bought, which is not of the field of his possession,

23 Pea ʻe toki lau kiate ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki hono fakatatau, ʻio, ʻo hoko ki he taʻu ʻoe siupeli: pea te ne ʻatu ʻe ia ʻi he ʻaho ko ia hoʻo fakatatau, ko e meʻa tapu kia Sihova.

then the priest shall reckon to him the worth of your valuation up to the Year of Jubilee; and he shall give your valuation on that day, as a holy thing to the LORD.

24 Pea ʻi he taʻu ʻoe siupeli ʻe toe hoko ʻae ngoue kiate ia naʻe fakatau ia mei ai, ʻio, kiate ia naʻe ʻoʻona ʻae potu fonua ko ia.

In the Year of Jubilee the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land belongs.

25 Pea ʻe fai ʻo taau mo e sikeli ʻoe faletapu ʻa hoʻo ngaahi fakatatau kotoa pē: ʻi he sikeli ʻe taha ʻae kela ʻe uofulu.

All your valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs to the shekel.

26 Ka ko e ngaahi ʻuluaki fānau ʻae fanga manu, ʻaia ʻoku totonu ke ʻa Sihova ʻae ʻuluaki tupu, ke ʻoua naʻa fakatapui ia ʻe ha tangata ʻe tokotaha; pe ko e pulu ia, pe ko ha sipi; ʻoku ʻa Sihova ia.

“‘However the firstborn among animals, which belongs to the LORD as a firstborn, no man may dedicate, whether an ox or a sheep. It is the LORD’s.

27 Pea kapau ʻoku ʻi he manu taʻemaʻa ia, pea ʻe huhuʻi ia ʻo fakatatau ki hoʻo fakatatau, pea te ne fakalahi ʻaki ia hono nima ʻo hono vahe ʻo ia: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai huhuʻi ia, pea ʻe fakatau ia ʻo hangē ko hoʻo fakatatau.

If it is an unclean animal, then he shall buy it back according to your valuation, and shall add to it the fifth part of it; or if it isn’t redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your valuation.

28 Ka ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻikai fakatau pe huhuʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha, ʻaia kuo fakatapui ʻe ha tangata kia Sihova ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ne maʻu, ʻi he tangata, pe ʻi he manu, pe ʻi he ngoue ʻo hono potu fonua: ko e meʻa fakatapui kotoa pē ʻoku māʻoniʻoni lahi ia kia Sihova.

“‘Notwithstanding, no devoted thing that a man devotes to the LORD of all that he has, whether of man or animal, or of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed. Everything that is permanently devoted is most holy to the LORD.

29 ‌ʻE ʻikai huhuʻi ha meʻa kuo fakatapui ʻaia kuo fakatapu ʻe he tangata ka ʻe tāmateʻi moʻoni ia.

“‘No one devoted to destruction, who shall be devoted from among men, shall be ransomed. He shall surely be put to death.

30 Pea ko hono hongofulu ʻoe vahe kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, pe ko e meʻa ʻi he tenga ʻoe fonua, pe ʻi he ngaahi fua ʻoe ʻakau ʻoku ʻa Sihova ia: ʻoku māʻoniʻoni ia kia Sihova.

“‘All the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the trees, is the LORD’s. It is holy to the LORD.

31 Pea kapau ʻoku tokanga ʻe ha tangata ke huhuʻi ʻae meʻa niʻihi ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe vahe, ʻe fakalahi ʻaki ʻe ia ia hono nima ʻoe vahe ʻo ia.

If a man redeems anything of his tithe, he shall add a fifth part to it.

32 Pea ko e meʻa ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe vahe ʻi he fanga manu lalahi, pe ʻi he fanga manu siʻi, ʻio, ʻi he manu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ʻi lalo ʻi he vaʻakau, ʻe māʻoniʻoni hono hongofulu kia Sihova.

All the tithe of the herds or the flocks, whatever passes under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to the LORD.

33 ‌ʻE ʻikai te ne kumi ke ʻilo pe ʻoku lelei pe ʻoku kovi ia, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne fetongi ia: pea kapau ʻoku ne fetongi ia, pea ko ia mo ia naʻe fetongi ʻaki ʻe fakatou māʻoniʻoni ia; ʻe ʻikai huhuʻi ia.

He shall not examine whether it is good or bad, neither shall he exchange it. If he exchanges it at all, then both it and that for which it is exchanged shall be holy. It shall not be redeemed.’”

34 Ko eni ʻae ngaahi fekau, ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he moʻunga ko Sainai.

These are the commandments which the LORD commanded Moses for the children of Israel on Mount Sinai.
