1 Pea ko eni foki ʻae ngaahi toʻutangata ʻo ʻElone mo Mōsese ʻi he ʻaho naʻe folofola ai ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese ʻi he moʻunga ko Sainai.

Now these are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that YHWH spoke with Moses in Mount Sinai.

2 Pea ko e hingoa eni ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo ʻElone; ko Natapi ko e ʻuluaki ia, mo ʻApiu, mo ʻEliesa, mo ʻItama.

These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

3 Pea ko e hingoa ia ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo ʻElone naʻe fakanofo ko e kau taulaʻeiki, ʻakinautolu naʻa ne fakatapui ke ngāue ʻi he ngāue fakataulaʻeiki.

These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests who were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest's office.

4 Pea naʻe mate ʻa Natapi mo ʻApiu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻi heʻena ʻomi ʻae afi kehe ki he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi he toafa ʻo Sainai, pea naʻe ʻikai haʻana fānau: pea ko ʻEliesa mo ʻItama naʻa na ngāue ʻi he ngāue fakataulaʻeiki ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻElone ko ʻena tamai.

Nadab and Abihu died before YHWH, when they offered strange fire before YHWH, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children. Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest's office in the presence of Aaron their father.

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

YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,

6 “Ke ke fakaofi mai ʻae faʻahinga ʻo Livai, pea fakahā ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻElone ko e taulaʻeiki koeʻuhi kenau ngāue kiate ia.

"Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister to him.

7 Pea tenau tokanga ki heʻene ngāue, mo e ngāue ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ke fai ki he ngāue ʻoe fale fehikitaki.

They shall keep his requirements, and the requirements of the whole congregation before the Tent of Meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle.

They shall keep all the furnishings of the Tent of Meeting, and the obligations of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.

9 Pea te ke foaki ʻae kau Livai kia ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha: kuo foaki ʻakinautolu kotoa pē kiate ia mei he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.

You shall give the Levites to Aaron and to his sons. They are wholly given to him on the behalf of the children of Israel.

10 Pea te ke fakanofo ʻa ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha, pea tenau fai ʻenau ngāue fakataulaʻeiki: pea ko e muli ʻe haʻu ʻo ofi ʻe tāmateʻi ia.”

And you shall appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall attend to their priesthood; but the unauthorized person who comes near shall be put to death."

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

YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,

12 “Pea ko au, vakai, Ko au kuo ʻomi ʻae kau Livai mei he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ke fetongi ʻaki ʻae ʻuluaki tama kotoa pē kuo ne toʻo ʻae manāva ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli; ko ia ai, ʻe ʻoʻoku ʻae kau Livai;

"Look, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of all the firstborn who open the womb among the children of Israel; and the Levites shall be mine:

13 Koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻoʻoku ʻae ʻuluaki tama kotoa pē; he ko e ʻaho ne u taaʻi ai ʻae ʻuluaki fānau ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ne u fakatapui ai kiate au ʻae ʻuluaki tama ʻi ʻIsileli, ʻae tangata mo e manu; Ko au ko Sihova ʻe ʻoʻoku ʻakinautolu.”

for all the firstborn are mine. On the day that I struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I made holy to me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and animal. They shall be mine. I am YHWH."

14 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese ʻi he toafa ʻo Sainai, ʻo pehē,

YHWH spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,

15 Ke ke lau ʻae fānau ʻa Livai ʻi he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, mo honau ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻae kakai tangata kotoa pē mei hono taha māhina, ke ke lau fakaʻaufuli ʻakinautolu.

"Count the descendants of Levi by their fathers' houses, by their families. You shall count every male from a month old and upward."
