1Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Ke ke tā maʻau ʻae maka lafalafa ʻe ua ʻo hangē ko e ʻuluaki maka: pea te u tohi ki he ongo maka ni, ʻae ngaahi lea naʻe ʻi he ʻuluaki maka, ʻaia naʻa ke maumauʻi.
1And after this he said: Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the former, and I will write upon them the words which were in the tables, which thou brokest.
2Pea ke teu ki he ʻapongipongi, pea ke ʻalu hake ʻapongipongi ki he moʻunga ko Sainai, pea ke fakahā koe kiate au ʻi he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga.
2Be ready in the morning, that thou mayst forthwith go up into mount Sinai, and thou shalt stand with me upon the top of the mount.
3Pea ʻe ʻikai ʻalu hake mo koe ha tangata ʻe tokotaha, pea ʻoua naʻa hā mai ha tangata ʻi he moʻunga kotoa pē, pea ʻoua naʻa kai ʻae fanga sipi, pe ko e fanga manu lalahi ʻi he ʻao ʻoe moʻunga ko ia.”
3Let no man go up with thee: and let not any man be seen throughout all the mount: neither let the oxen nor the sheep feed over against it.
4¶ Pea naʻa ne tā ʻae ongo maka lafalafa ʻo hangē ko e ʻuluaki; pea naʻe tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻa Mōsese, ʻo ne ʻalu hake ki he moʻunga ko Sainai, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kiate ia, ʻo ne ʻave ʻi hono nima ʻae ongo maka lafalafa.
4Then he cut out two tables of stone, such as had been before: and rising very early he went up into the mount Sinai, as the Lord had commanded him, carrying with him the tables.
5Pea naʻe hāʻele hifo ʻa Sihova ʻi he ʻao, pea tutuʻu ʻi ai mo ia, ʻo ne fakahā ʻae huafa ʻo Sihova.
5And when the Lord was come down in a cloud, Moses stood with him, calling upon the name of the Lord.
6Pea naʻe hāʻele ange ʻa Sihova ʻi hono ʻao, ʻo ne folofola, “Ko Sihova, Ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻaloʻofa, mo ʻofa mataʻatā, ʻoku kātaki fuoloa, pea mohu ʻi he angalelei mo e moʻoni.
6And when he passed before him, he said: O the Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, patient and of much compassion, and true,
7ʻOku ne fakahā ʻae ʻaloʻofa ki he ngaahi toko afe, ʻi he fakamolemole ʻae hia, mo e talangataʻa, mo e angahala, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito fakatonuhiaʻi ʻae halaia; ʻoku ʻaʻahi ʻaki ki he fānau ʻae hia ʻae mātuʻa, pea ki he hako ʻo ʻenau fānau, ʻo aʻu ki hono tolu mo hono fā ʻoe toʻutangata.”
7Who keepest mercy unto thousands: who takest away iniquity, and wickedness, and sin, and no man of himself is innocent before thee. Who renderest the iniquity of the fathers to the children, and to the grandchildren, unto the third and fourth generation.
8Pea naʻe fakatoʻotoʻo ʻe Mōsese, ke punou hifo hono ʻulu ki he kelekele, pea hū.
8And Moses making haste, bowed down prostrate unto the earth, and adoring,
9Pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻE Sihova, kapau kuo u maʻu ni ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ʻalu ʻa hoku ʻEiki, mo kimautolu: he ko e kakai kia kekeva; pea fakamolemole ʻe mau hia mo e mau angahala, mo ke fili ʻakimautolu ko e tofiʻa ʻoʻou.”
9Said: If I have found grace in thy sight: O Lord, I beseech thee, that thou wilt go with us, (for it is a stiffnecked people,) and take away our iniquities and sin, and possess us.
10¶ Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Vakai, ʻoku ou fai ʻae fuakava: te u fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa mana ʻi he ʻao ʻo ho kakai kotoa pē, ʻae meʻa naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito hano tatau, ʻi ha potu ʻe taha ʻo māmani, pe ʻi ha puleʻanga: pea ko e kakai kotoa pē ʻaia ʻoku ke nofo ki ai te nau mamata ki he ngāue ʻa Sihova: he ko e meʻa fakamanavahē ia ʻaia te u fai kiate koe.
10The Lord answered: I will make a covenant in the sight of all. I will do signs such as were never seen upon the earth, nor in any nation: that this people, in the midst of whom thou art, may see the terrible work of the Lord which I will do.
11Ke ke tokanga koe ki he meʻa ʻoku ou fekau kiate koe he ʻaho ni: vakai, ʻoku ou kapusi mei ho ʻao ʻae kau ʻAmoli, mo e kau Kēnani, mo e kau Heti, mo e kau Pelesi, mo e kau Hevi, mo e kau Sepusi.
11Observe all things which this day I command thee: I myself will drive out before thy face the Amorrhite, and the Chanaanite, and the Hethite, and the Pherezite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite.
12Ke ke vakai kiate koe, telia naʻa mou fai ha fuakava mo e kakai ʻoe fonua ʻaia ʻoku ke ʻalu ki ai, telia naʻa hoko ia ko e tauhele ʻi loto ʻiate koe.
12Beware thou never join in friendship with the inhabitants of that land, which may be thy ruin:
13Ka te mou maumauʻi honau ngaahi feilaulauʻanga, pea laiki ʻenau ngaahi meʻa fakatātā, pea tā ke hinga ʻenau ngaahi ʻakau tapu:
13But destroy their altars, break their statues, and cut down their groves:
14ʻE ʻikai te ke lotu koe ki ha ʻotua kehe: he ko Sihova, ʻaia ko hono huafa ko Fuaʻa, ko e ʻOtua fuaʻa ia.
14Adore not any strange god. The Lord his name is Jealous, he is a jealous God.
15Telia naʻa mou fai ʻae fuakava mo e kakai ʻoe fonua, pea nau ʻalu ʻo tango ki honau ngaahi ʻotua, pea fai ʻae feilaulau ki honau ngaahi ʻotua, pea ui koe ʻe ha tokotaha , pea ke kai ʻi heʻene feilaulau;
15Make no covenant with the men of those countries lest, when they have committed fornication with their gods, and have adored their idols, some one call thee to eat of the things sacrificed.
16pe ke fili ʻe koe ʻa honau ngaahi ʻofefine ki ho ngaahi foha; pea ʻalu ʻa honau ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo tango ki honau ngaahi ʻotua, ʻonau fakakau ho ngaahi foha ke nau ʻalu ʻo tango ki honau ngaahi ʻotua.
16Neither shalt thou take of their daughters a wife for thy son, lest after they themselves have committed fornication, they make thy sons also to commit fornication with their gods.
17ʻOua naʻa ke ngaohi moʻou ha ʻotua ukamea kuo haka.
17Thou shalt not make to thyself any molten gods.
18¶ “Pea te ke tauhi ʻae kātoanga ʻoe mā taʻefakalēvani. Ke ke kai ʻae mā taʻefakalēvani ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku fekau kiate koe, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe māhina ko ʻApipi: he naʻa ke haʻu mei ʻIsipite ʻi he māhina ko ʻApipi.
18Thou shalt keep the feast of the unleavened bread. Seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee in the time of the month of the new corn: for in the month of the springtime thou camest out from Egypt.
19Ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku fakaava ʻae manāva ʻoku ʻaʻaku ia; mo e ʻuluaki manu tangata ʻi hoʻo fanga manu, pe ko ha pulu ia, pe ko ha sipi.
19All of the male kind, that openeth the womb, shall be mine. Of all beasts, both of oxen and of sheep, it shall be mine.
20Ka ko e ʻuluaki ʻuhiki ʻoe ʻasi ke ke huhuʻi ʻaki ia ʻae lami; pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke huhuʻi ia, pea ke fesiʻi hono kia. Ko e ʻuluaki fānau kotoa pē ʻi ho ngaahi foha te ke huhuʻi. Pea ʻoua naʻa fakahā mola pe ha tokotaha ʻi hoku ʻao.
20The firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a sheep: but if thou wilt not give a price for it, it shall be slain. The firstborn of thy sons thou shalt redeem: neither shalt thou appear before me empty.
21¶ “Te ke ngāue ʻi he ʻaho ʻe ono, ka ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho te ke mālōlō: ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe tō taʻu, mo e ututaʻu ke ke mālōlō.
21Six days shalt thou work, the seventh day thou shalt cease to plough, and to reap.
22¶ “Pea te ke tokanga ki he kātoanga ʻoe ngaahi uike, mo e ʻuluaki fua ʻoe tuʻusi ʻoe uite, mo e kātoanga ʻoe ututaʻu ʻi he fakaʻosi taʻu.
22Thou shalt keep the feast of weeks with the firstfruits of the corn of thy wheat harvest, and the feast when the time of the year returneth that all things are laid in.
23¶ “ʻE liunga tolu ʻi he taʻu ʻae fakahā ʻa hoʻomou fānau tangata kotoa pē ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
23Three times in a year all thy males shall appear in the sight of the Almighty Lord the God of Israel.
24He te u kapusi ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga mei ho ʻao, pea te u fakalahi atu ʻae ngataʻanga ʻo ho fonua: pea ʻe ʻikai ha tangata te ne holi ki ho fonua, ʻoka ke ka ʻalu hake, ʻo liunga tolu ʻi he taʻu ke fakahā koe ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.
24For when I shall have taken away the nations from thy face, and shall have enlarged thy borders, no man shall lie in wait against thy land when thou shalt go up, and appear in the sight of the Lord thy God thrice in a year.
25“ʻOua naʻa ke ʻatu ʻae toto ʻo ʻeku feilaulau mo e lēvani: pea ʻoua naʻa ke tuku ki he ʻapongipongi ʻae feilaulau ʻoe kātoanga ʻoe Lakaatu.
25Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice upon leaven: neither shall there remain in the morning any thing of the victim of the solemnity of the Lord.
26“Ko e polopolo ʻoe ngaahi ʻuluaki fua ʻo ho fonua ke ke ʻomi ki he fale ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua. “ʻOua naʻa ke haka ʻae ʻuhiki sipi pe kosi ʻi he huʻahuhu ʻo ʻene faʻē.”
26The first of the fruits of thy ground thou shalt offer in the house of the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in the milk of his dam.
27Pea pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “Ke ke tohi ʻae ngaahi lea ni: he kuo u fai ʻae fuakava kiate koe mo ʻIsileli, ʻo fakatatau ki hono ʻuhinga ʻoe ngaahi lea ni.
27And the Lord said to Moses: Write these words by which I have made a covenant both with thee and with Israel.
28Pea naʻe ʻi ai ia mo Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu mo e pō ʻe fāngofulu; pea naʻe ʻikai te ne kai mā, pe inu ha vai. Pea naʻa ne tohi ki he ongo maka lafalafa ʻae ngaahi lea ʻoe fuakava, ko e fekau ʻe hongofulu.
28And he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights: he neither ate bread nor drank water, and he wrote upon the tables the ten words of the covenant.
29¶ Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi he ʻalu hifo ʻa Mōsese mei he moʻunga ko Sainai, mo e maka lafalafa ʻe ua ʻoe fuakava ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese, ʻi heʻene ʻalu hifo mei he moʻunga, naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe Mōsese ʻoku ulo ʻae kili ʻo hono mata lolotonga ʻene talanoa mo ia.
29And when Moses came down from the mount Sinai, he held the two tables of the testimony, and he knew not that his face was horned from the conversation of the Lord.
30Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa ʻElone, pea mo e fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli kia Mōsese, vakai, naʻe ulo ʻae kili ʻo hono mata: pea naʻa nau manavahē ke haʻu ʻo ofi kiate ia.
30And Aaron and the children of Israel seeing the face of Moses horned, were afraid to come near.
31Pea naʻe ui ʻe Mōsese kiate kinautolu; pea ko ʻElone mo e kau pule kotoa pē ʻoe kakai naʻa nau foki mai kiate ia: pea naʻe talanoa ʻa Mōsese mo kinautolu.
31And being called by him, they returned, both Aaron and the rulers of the congregation. And after that he spoke to them.
32Pea hili ia, naʻe ʻunuʻunu mai ʻo ofi ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻa ne tala ʻo fekau kiate kinautolu ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova kiate ia ʻi he moʻunga ko Sainai.
32And all the children of Israel came to him: and he gave them in commandment all that he had heard of the Lord in mount Sinai.
33Pea naʻe ʻai ʻe Mōsese ʻae pūlou ki hono mata, kaeʻoua ke hili ʻene talanoa mo kinautolu.
33And having done speaking, he put a veil upon his face.
34Ka ʻi he ʻalu ʻa Mōsese ki he ʻao ʻo Sihova ke lea kiate ia, naʻa ne toʻo ʻae pūlou, kaeʻoua ke hū kituʻa. Pea naʻe haʻu kituʻa ia, ʻo ne tala ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻe fekau kiate ia ke fai.
34But when he went in to the Lord, and spoke with him, he took it away until he came forth, and then he spoke to the children of Israel all things that had been commanded him.
35Pea naʻe mamata ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ki he mata ʻo Mōsese, ʻoku ulo ʻae kili ʻoe mata ʻo Mōsese: pea naʻe toe ʻai ʻe Mōsese ʻae pūlou ki hono mata kaeʻoua ke toe hū ia ke alea mo ia.
35And they saw that the face of Moses when he came out was horned, but he covered his face again, if at any time he spoke to them.
