1Pea ko eni ʻae ngaahi lea ʻoe fuakava, ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese ke fai mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he fonua ʻo Moape, ka ʻoku kehe ʻae fuakava ʻaia naʻa ne fai mo kinautolu ʻi Holepi.
1These are the words of the covenant which the Lord commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab: beside that covenant which he made with them in Horeb.
2¶ Pea naʻe ui ʻe Mōsese ki ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Kuo mou mamata ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe Sihova ʻi homou ʻao ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite kia Felo, pea ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē, pea ki hono fonua kotoa pē.
2And Moses called all Israel, and said to them: You have seen all the things that the Lord did before you in the land of Egypt to Pharao, and to all his servants, and to his whole land.
3Ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻahiʻahi ʻaia naʻe mamata ki ai ʻa ho mata, ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga, mo e ngaahi mana lahi ko ia:
3The great temptations, which thy eyes have seen, those mighty signs and wonders,
4Ka ʻoku teʻeki ai foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻe Sihova ʻae loto ke ʻilo, mo e mata ke mamata, mo e telinga ke ongo, ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ni.
4And the Lord hath not given you a heart to understand, and eyes to see, and ears that may hear, unto this present day.
5Pea kuo u tataki ʻakimoutolu ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu ʻi he toafa ʻoku teʻeki ai fakaʻaʻau ʻo motuʻa homou ngaahi kofu, pea ʻoku ʻikai hoko ʻo motuʻa ho topuvaʻe ʻi ho vaʻe.
5He hath brought you forty years through the desert: your garments are not worn out, neither are the shoes of your feet consumed with age.
6Kuo ʻikai te mou kai mā, pea kuo ʻikai te mou inu uaine pe ha inu mālohi: koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.
6You have not eaten bread, nor have you drunk wine or strong drink: that you might know that I am the Lord your God.
7Pea ʻi hoʻomou hoko ki he potu ni, naʻe haʻu ʻa Sihoni ko e tuʻi ʻo Hesiponi, mo Oki ko e tuʻi ʻo Pesani, ʻo tuʻu hake ko hotau tauʻi, pea naʻa tau teʻia ʻakinaua:
7And you came to this place: sand Sehon king of Hesebon, and Og king of Basan, came out against us to fight. And we slew them.
8Pea naʻa tau maʻu hona fonua, pea naʻe foaki ia ko e tofiʻa ki he faʻahinga ʻo Lupeni, mo e faʻahinga ʻo Kata, pea ki hono vaeuaʻanga ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase.
8And took their land, and delivered it for a possession to Ruben and Gad, and the half tribe of Manasses.
9Ko ia mou tauhi ʻae ngaahi lea ʻae fuakava ni, ʻo fai ki ai, koeʻuhi ke mou monūʻia ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku mou fai.
9Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and fulfill them: that you may understand all that you do.
10¶ “ʻOku mou tutuʻu kotoa pē he ʻaho ni ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko homou ʻOtua; ko e ngaahi ʻeiki ʻo homou ngaahi faʻahinga, mo homou kau mātuʻa, mo homou kau matāpule, pea mo e kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli,
10You all stand this day before the Lord your God, your princes, and tribes, and ancients, and doctors, all the people of Israel,
11Mo hoʻomou ngaahi fānau siʻi, mo homou ngaahi uaifi, mo e muli ʻoku ʻi ho ʻapitanga, ʻo fai mei he tangata ʻoku tā ʻa hoʻo fefie ʻo aʻu kiate ia ʻoku ʻutu ʻa hoʻo vai:
11Your children and your wives, and the stranger that abideth with thee in the camp, besides the hewers of wood, and them that bring water:
12Koeʻuhi ke ke fai ha fuakava mo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, pea ki heʻene folofola fakapapau, ʻaia ʻoku fai ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua mo koe he ʻaho ni:
12That thou mayst pass in the covenant of the Lord thy God, and in the oath which this day the Lord thy God maketh with thee.
13Koeʻuhi ke ne fokotuʻumaʻu koe he ʻaho ni ko e kakai moʻona, pea ke hoko ia kiate koe koe ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko ʻene folofola kiate koe, pea hangē ko ʻene fuakava ki hoʻo ngaahi tamai, kia ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, pea mo Sēkope.
13That he may raise thee up a people to himself, and he may be thy God as he hath spoken to thee, and as he swore to thy fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
14Pea ʻoku ʻikai ko ʻeku fai ʻae fuakava ko eni, mo e lea fakapapau ni kiate kimoutolu pe;
14Neither with you only do I make this covenant, and confirm these oaths,
15Ka kiate ia ʻoku tau tutuʻu mo ia he ʻaho ni ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, pea mo ia foki ʻoku ʻikai ʻi heni mo kitautolu he ʻaho ni:
15But with all that are present and that are absent.
16(He ʻoku mou ʻilo pe naʻe fēfē ʻetau nofo ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite; pea mo ʻetau laka mai ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga ʻaia naʻa mou haʻu ʻo ofi ki ai;
16For you know how we dwelt in the land of Egypt, and how we have passed through the midst of nations, and passing through them,
17Pea kuo mou mamata ki heʻenau ngaahi meʻa kovi, mo honau ngaahi ʻotua loi, ko e ʻakau, mo e maka, mo e siliva, mo e koula, ʻaia naʻe ʻiate kinautolu:)
17You have seen their abominations and filth, that is to say, their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which they worshipped.
18Telia naʻa ʻiate kimoutolu ha tangata, pe ha fefine, pe ha fale, pe ha faʻahinga, ʻoku tafoki hono loto he ʻaho ni meia Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, ke ʻalu ʻo tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga ni; telia naʻa ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae aka ʻoku fua ʻaki ʻae ʻahu mo e kona;
18Lest perhaps there should be among you a man or a woman, a family or a tribe, whose heart is turned away this day from the Lord our God, to go and serve the gods of those nations: and there should be among you a root bringing forth gall and bitterness.
19Pea ʻe hoko ai ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene ongoʻi ʻae ngaahi lea ʻoe fakamalaʻia ni, te ne mahalo lelei kiate ia ʻi hono loto, ʻo pehē, Te u maʻu pe ʻae fiemālie, neongo ʻeku ʻeveʻeva pe ʻi he filioʻi ʻa hoku loto, ke fakalahi ʻaki ʻae kona ki he fieinu:
19And when he shall hear the words of this oath, he should bless himself in his heart saying: I shall have peace, and will walk on in the naughtiness of my heart: and the drunken may consume the thirsty,
20ʻE ʻikai mamae kiate ia ʻa Sihova, ka ʻe vela ʻae houhau mo e fuaʻa ʻo Sihova ki he tangata ko ia, pea ko e ngaahi malaʻia kotoa pē ʻaia kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ni, ʻe tuku tonu kiate ia, pea ʻe tāmateʻi ʻe Sihova hono hingoa mei he lalo langi.
20And the Lord should not forgive him: but his wrath and jealousy against that man should be exceedingly enkindled at that time, and all the curses that are written in this volume should light upon him: and the Lord should blot out his name from under heaven,
21Pea ʻe vaheʻi ia ʻe Sihova ki he kovi mei he ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi malaʻia ʻoe fuakava ʻaia kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ni ʻoe fono:
21And utterly destroy him out of all the tribes of Israel, according to the curses that are contained in the book of this law and covenant:
22Ko ia, ko e toʻutangata ʻamui ʻi hoʻomou fānau ʻaia ʻe tupu hake kimui ʻiate kimoutolu, pea mo e muli ʻaia ʻe haʻu mei he fonua mamaʻo, tenau pehē, ʻi heʻenau mamata ki he ngaahi tautea ʻoe fonua ko ia, mo e ngaahi mahaki ʻaia kuo tuku ki ai ʻe Sihova;
22And the following generation shall say, and the children that shall be born hereafter, and the strangers that shall come from afar, seeing the plagues of that land and the evils wherewith the Lord hath afflicted it,
23Pea kuo hoko ʻae fonua kotoa pē ko e sulifa, mo e māsima, mo e vela, ʻoku ʻikai tūtuuʻi ia pe fua, pe tupu ha mohuku ʻi ai, ka ʻoku hangē ko e fulihi ʻo Sotoma, mo Komola, ko ʻAtima, mo Sipoimi, ʻaia naʻe fulihi ʻe Sihova ʻi heʻene tuputāmaki, pea ʻi hono houhau lahi:
23Burning it with brimstone, and the heat of salt, so that it cannot be sown any more, nor any green thing grow therein, after the example of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrha, Adama and Seboim, which the Lord destroyed in his wrath and indignation:
24ʻIo, ʻe lea ʻae puleʻanga kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e hā kuo fai pehē ai ʻa Sihova ki he fonua ni? Ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻoe kakaha ʻo hono houhau lahi ni?’
24And all the nations shall say: Why hath the Lord done thus to this land? what meaneth this exceeding great heat of his wrath?
25Pea ʻe pehē ʻe he kakai, ‘Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau liʻaki ʻae fuakava ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻaia naʻe fai mo kinautolu ʻi heʻene ʻomi ʻakinautolu kituaʻā mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite:
25And they shall answer: Because they forsook the covenant of the Lord, which he made with their fathers, when he brought them out of the land of Egypt:
26He naʻa nau ʻalu ʻo tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe, pea lotu ki ai, ʻae ngaahi ʻotua naʻe ʻikai tenau ʻilo, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne foaki kiate kinautolu:
26And they have served strange gods, and adored them, whom they knew not, and for whom they had not been assigned:
27Pea naʻe tupu ai ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova ki he fonua ni, ke fakahoko ki ai ʻae ngaahi malaʻia kotoa pē kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ni:
27Therefore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against this land, to bring upon it all the curses that are written in this volume:
28Pea naʻe taʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova mei honau fonua ʻi he houhau, pea ʻi he houhau lahi, pea ʻi he tuputāmaki lahi, pea ne lī ʻakinautolu ki he fonua kehe, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku fai he ʻaho ni.’
28And he hath cast them out of their land, in anger and in wrath, and in very great indignation, and hath thrown them into a strange land, as it is seen this day.
29Ko e ngaahi meʻa lilo ʻoku ʻa Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua: ka ko e ngaahi meʻa kuo fakahā ʻoku ʻatautolu ia mo ʻetau fānau ʻo taʻengata, koeʻuhi ketau fai ʻae lea kotoa pē ʻoe fono ni.
29Secret things to the Lord our God: things that are manifest, to us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.
