28 Pea ko hono toe ʻoe kakai, ko e kau taulaʻeiki, mo e kau Livai, mo e kau leʻo matapā, mo e kau hiva, mo e kau Netenimi, mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻa nau fakamavae ʻakinautolu mei he kakai ʻoe ngaahi fonua ki he fono ʻae ʻOtua, mo honau ngaahi uaifi, mo honau ngaahi foha, mo honau ngaahi ʻofefine, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe maʻu ʻae ʻilo, mo e loto poto;

And the rest of the people, the priests, the Levites, the gate-keepers, the singers, the temple-servants, and all those that had separated themselves from the nations of the lands unto the law of God, their wives, their sons, and their daughters, every one having knowledge, and having understanding,

29 Naʻa nau kau mo honau ngaahi kāinga, ko honau houʻeiki, ʻonau fai ʻae tuki moʻoni, pea mo e fuakava, ke ʻalu ʻi he fono ʻae ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻe foaki ʻia Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻae ʻOtua, ke tokanga mo fai ʻae ngaahi fekau kotoa pē ʻa Sihova ko hotau ʻEiki, mo ʻene ngaahi fakamaau mo ʻene ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni;

Held firmly with their brethren, their nobles, and entered into a curse, and into an oath, to walk in the law of God, which was given through means of Moses the servant of God, and to observe and to do all the commandments of the Eternal One, our Lord, and his ordinances and his statutes;

30 Pea ke ʻoua naʻa tau foaki hotau ngaahi ʻofefine ki he kakai ʻoe fonua; pea ʻoua naʻa tau ʻomi honau ngaahi ʻofefine moʻo hotau ngaahi foha:

And that we would not give our daughters unto the people of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons;

31 Pea kapau ʻe ʻomi ʻe he kakai ʻoe fonua ha meʻa fakatau pē ha meʻakai ʻi he ʻaho tapu ke fakatau, pea ʻoua naʻa tau fakatau ia ʻi he ʻaho tapu, he ko e ʻaho māʻoniʻoni: pea ke tau tuku hono fitu ʻoe taʻu, mo e ʻeke totongi kotoa pē [ʻi ai].

And that if the people of the land should bring wares or any provisions on the sabbath day to sell, we would not buy of them on the sabbath, or on [another] holy day; and that we would leave [the fields without reaping in] the seventh year, and [give up] every loan of hand.

32 Pea naʻa tau fai haʻamau fono, ke fakamoʻua ʻakimautolu ʻi he taʻu kotoa pē ʻaki hono tolu ʻoe vahe ʻoe sikeli maʻae tauhi ʻoe fale ʻo homau ʻOtua;

And we established for us as one of the commandments to impose on ourselves [to give] the third part of a shekel in every year for the service of the house of our God;

33 Koeʻuhi ko e mā ʻoe ʻao, pea ki he feilaulau meʻakai fai maʻu pe, pea mo e feilaulau tutu fai maʻu pe, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho tapu, ʻi he ngaahi tuʻu efiafi, pea ki he ngaahi kātoanga kuo kotofa pea mo e ngaahi meʻa māʻoniʻoni, pea maʻae ngaahi feilaulau koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi angahala ke fai ʻaki ʻae fakalelei maʻa ʻIsileli, pea ki he ngāue kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻoe ʻOtua.

For the shew-bread, and for the continual meat-offering, and for the continual burnt-offering, [for those of] the sabbaths, of the new-moons, for the appointed feasts, and for the holy things, and for the sin-offerings to make an atonement for Israel, and [for] all the work of the house of our God.

34 Pea naʻa tau fai ʻae talotalo ki he kau taulaʻeiki, mo e kau Livai, mo e kakai, ki he feilaulau ʻoe fefie, ke fetuku ia ki he fale ʻo hotau ʻOtua, ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi fale ʻo ʻemau ngaahi tamai, ʻi he ngaahi kuonga kuo kotofa ʻi he taʻu tukufakaholo, ke tutu ʻi he funga ʻoe feilaulauʻanga ʻo Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tohi ʻi he fono:

And we, the priests, the Levites, and the people, cast lots concerning the procuring of the wood, to bring it into the house of our God, unto the house of our fathers, at fixed times, year by year, to burn upon the altar of the Lord our God, as it is written in the law;

35 Pea ke ʻomi ʻae ngaahi ʻuluaki fua ʻoe ngoue, mo e ʻuluaki fua ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau kotoa pē, ʻi he taʻu hokohoko pe, ki he fale ʻo Sihova:

And to bring the first-fruits of our ground, and the first-fruits of all fruit of all trees, year by year, unto the house of the Lord;

36 Pea mo e ʻuluaki tupu ʻo hotau ngaahi foha, pea mo ʻetau fanga manu lalahi, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tohi ʻi he fono, mo e ʻuluaki tupu ʻo ʻetau ngaahi fanga manu siʻi mo e fanga [sipi], ke ʻomi ki he fale ʻo hotau ʻOtua, ki he kau taulaʻeiki ʻaia ʻoku tauhi ʻi he fale ʻo hotau ʻOtua:

And also the first-born of our sons, and for our [unclean] cattle, as it is written in the law, and to bring the first-born of our herds and of our flocks to the house of our God, unto the priests that minister in the house of our God;

37 Pea ke tau ʻomi hono ʻuluaki fua ʻo ʻetau mā [kuo natu], mo ʻetau ngaahi meʻa ʻatu, mo e fua ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau kehekehe kotoa pē, ʻoe uaine mo e lolo, ki he kau taulaʻeiki, ki he ngaahi potuʻi fale ʻi he fale ʻo hotau ʻOtua: mo e ngaahi tāuvao ʻo ʻetau ngoue ki he kau Livai, ke maʻu ai ʻe he kau Livai ko ia ʻae ngaahi tāuvao ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻo hotau potu kakai.

And that we would bring the first portion of our dough, and our heave-offerings, and this of the fruit of all manner of trees, of wine and of oil, to the priests, unto the chambers of the house of our God, and the tithes of our ground unto the Levites; and that these same Levites should be the receivers of the tithes in all the cities of our land-tillage;

38 Pea ko e taulaʻeiki ko e foha ʻo ʻElone ʻe kau ia mo e kau Livai ʻi he maʻu ʻe he kau Livai ʻae ngaahi tāuvao: pea ʻe fetuku hake ʻe he kau Livai hono hongofulu ʻoe vahe ʻoe tāuvao ki he fale ʻo hotau ʻOtua, ki he ngaahi potu fale ki loto ʻi he fale koloa.

And that the priest the son of Aaron should be with the Levites, when the Levites receive the tithes; and that the Levites should bring up the tithe of the tithes unto the house of our God, to the chambers, into the treasure-house.

39 He ko e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mo e fānau ʻa Livai te nau ʻomi ʻae feilaulau ʻoe uite, mo e uaine foʻou, mo e lolo, ki he ngaahi fale ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi ipu ʻoe faletapu, mo e kau taulaʻeiki ʻoku tauhi, mo e kau leʻo matapā, mo e kau hiva: pea ʻe ʻikai te tau liʻaki ʻae fale ʻo hotau ʻOtua.

For into the chambers shall the children of Israel and the children of Levi bring the heave-offering of the corn, of the new wine, and the oil, and there shall be the vessels of the sanctuary, and the priests that minister, and the gatekeepers, and the singers: and that we will not forsake the house of our God.
