Teutalōnome 21:1-23
21 “Kapau ʻoku maʻu ha taha kuo tāmateʻi ʻi ha kelekele ʻo e fonua ʻoku foaki atu ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtuá ke ke maʻú pea ʻoku ʻikai ke ʻiloʻi pe ko hai naʻá ne tāmateʻi iá,
2 ko hoʻo kau mātuʻá mo e kau fakamāú+ te nau ʻalu atu ʻo fua ʻa e mamaʻo mei he sino kuo maté ki he ngaahi kolo ʻoku takatakai aí.
3 Ko e kau mātuʻa leva ʻo e kolo ʻoku ofi taha ki he sinó te nau toʻo mei he tākangá ha pulu mui ʻa ia kuo teʻeki ai ke fakangāueʻi, ʻa ia kuo teʻeki ai ke toho ʻi ha ʻioke,
4 pea ko e kau mātuʻa ʻo e kolo ko iá te nau taki hifo ʻa e pulu muí ki ha teleʻa* ʻoku tafe ai ʻa e vaí ʻa ia kuo teʻeki fai ai ha ngoue pe ko hono tūtuuʻi ʻo ha tenga, pea te nau motuhi ai ʻa e kia ʻo e pulu muí ʻi he teleʻá.+
5 “Pea ko e kau taulaʻeikí, ʻa e kau Līvaí, te nau fakaofiofi mai koeʻuhí ko Sihova ko ho ʻOtuá kuó ne fili kinautolu ke nau fakahoko fatongia kiate ia,+ ke nau fanongonongo ʻa e ngaahi tāpuaki ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihová.+ Te nau talaki ʻa e founga ʻe fakaleleiʻiʻaki ʻa e fakakikihi kotoa pē ʻoku kau ki ai ʻa e fakamālohí.+
6 Ko e kau mātuʻa kotoa leva ʻo e kolo ʻoku ofi taha ki he sino kuo maté te nau fanofano honau nimá+ ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he pulu mui ʻa ia naʻe motuhi hono kiá ʻi he teleʻá,
7 pea te nau talaki, ‘Ko homau nimá naʻe ʻikai te ne lilingi ʻa e toto ko ení, pea naʻe ʻikai foki ke sio homau matá ki hono lilingi iá.
8 ʻOua naʻa lau mai ʻa e meʻá ni ki ho kakai ko ʻIsilelí, ʻa ia naʻá ke huhuʻí,+ ʻe Sihova, pea ʻoua naʻa tuku ʻa e halaia ʻi he toto taʻehalaiá ke nofo ʻi he lotolotonga ho kakai ko ʻIsilelí.’+ Pea ʻe ʻikai leva ke lau ʻa e halaia ʻi he totó kiate kinautolu.
9 ʻI he meʻá ni te ke toʻo ai ʻa e halaia ʻi he toto taʻehalaiá mei ho lotolotongá ʻaki hono fai ʻa e meʻa ʻoku totonú ʻi he vakai mai ʻa Sihová.
10 “Kapau te ke ʻalu atu ke tau mo ho ngaahi filí pea ikunaʻi kinautolu ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtuá maʻau peá ke taki pōpula kinautolu,+
11 peá ke sio ai ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo e kau pōpulá ki ha fefine hoihoifua peá ke manako ʻiate ia ʻo ke loto ke ʻave ia ke ne hoko ko hao uaifi,
12 te ke ʻomi ia ki ho falé. Pea te ne tele leva hono ʻulú, ngaahi hono ngeʻesi-nimá,
13 pea huʻi hono teunga pōpulá, peá ne nofo ʻi ho falé. Te ne tengihia ʻa ʻene tamaí mo ʻene faʻeé ʻi ha māhina kakato,+ pea ʻi he hili iá te ke toki mohe* leva mo ia; te ke hoko ai ko hono husepāniti pea te ne hoko ko ho uaifi.
14 Ka ʻo kapau ʻoku ʻikai te ke leleiʻia ʻiate ia, te ke tuku atu leva ia ke ne ʻalu+ ki ha feituʻu pē ʻokú ne loto ki ai. Ka heʻikai te ke fakatau atu ia ki ha paʻanga pe tōʻongafai anga-fefeka kiate ia, koeʻuhí kuó ke fakamaaʻi ia.
15 “Kapau ʻoku maʻu ʻe ha tangata ha uaifi ʻe toko ua peá ne ʻofa he toko taha ʻo lahi hake ia he tokotaha ʻe tahá* peá na fakatou fanauʻi kiate ia ha ngaahi foha pea ko e ʻuluaki foha naʻe fāʻeleʻí ʻoku ʻa e tokotaha ia ʻoku ʻikai ʻofaʻí,+
16 ʻi he ʻaho ko ia te ne foaki ai hono tofiʻá ki hono ngaahi fohá, ʻe ʻikai ngofua ke ne tōʻongafai ki he foha ʻo e tokotaha ʻoku ʻofaʻí ko hono ʻuluaki fohá ia kae ʻikai ko e foha ʻo e tokotaha ʻoku ʻikai ʻofaʻí, ʻa e ʻuluaki fohá.
17 ʻOku totonu ke ne fakahaaʻi ko e ʻuluaki fohá ʻa e foha ʻo e tokotaha ʻoku ʻikai ʻofaʻí ʻaki hono ʻoange kiate ia ʻa e ʻinasi ʻoku liunga ua ʻo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻokú ne maʻú, he ko e tokotaha ko iá ʻa e kamataʻanga ʻo hono ivi fakafanaú. Ko e totonu ki he tuʻunga ʻo e ʻuluaki fohá ʻoku ʻaʻana ia.+
18 “Kapau ʻoku ʻi ai ha tangata ʻa ia ko hono fohá ʻoku anga-fefeka mo angatuʻu pea ʻoku ʻikai te ne talangofua ki heʻene tamaí pe ko ʻene faʻeé,+ pea kuó na feinga ke fakatonutonu ia ka ʻokú ne fakafisi ke fanongo kiate kinaua,+
19 ʻe puke ia ʻe heʻene tamaí mo ʻene faʻeé pea ʻave ia ki he kau mātuʻá ʻi he matapā ʻo hono koló
20 pea te na pehē ki he kau mātuʻa ʻo hono koló, ‘Ko homa foha ko ení ʻoku anga-fefeka mo angatuʻu, pea ʻokú ne fakafisi ke talangofua kiate kimaua. Ko ha tokotaha kai fakaputa*+ ia mo faʻa konā.’+
21 Ko e kau tangata kotoa leva ʻo hono koló kuo pau ke nau tolomakaʻi ia ke ne mate. Ko ia kuo pau ke ke toʻo ʻa e koví mei ho lotolotongá, pea ʻe fanongo ai ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pea nau hoko ʻo ilifia.+
22 “Kapau ʻe fai ʻe ha tangata ha angahala ʻoku tuha mo e tautea maté pea kuo tāmateʻi+ ia pea kuó ke tautau ia ʻi ha ʻakau,+
23 ko hono sino kuo maté ʻe ʻikai ke kei ʻi he ʻakaú+ ia he pō kotoa ko iá. ʻI hono kehé, te ke fakapapauʻi ke tanu ia ʻi he ʻaho pē ko iá, koeʻuhí ko e tokotaha ʻoku tautaú ko ha meʻa ia kuo fakamalaʻiaʻi ʻe he ʻOtuá,+ pea ʻoku ʻikai totonu ke ke ʻuliʻi ho fonua ʻa ia ʻoku foaki atu ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtuá ko ho tofiʻá.+
