1Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
1Then the LORD said to Moses,
2Lea kia ʻElone, pea ki hono ngaahi foha, pea ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, Ko eni ʻae meʻa ʻaia kuo fekau ʻe Sihova, ʻo pehē,
2“Speak to Aaron, his sons, and all the Israelites and tell them this is what the LORD has commanded:
3Ko e tangata kotoa pē ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ʻae pulu pē ko e lami, pe ko e kosi, ʻi he ʻapitanga, pe tāmateʻi ia ʻituʻa he ʻapitanga,
3‘Anyone from the house of Israel who slaughters an ox, a lamb, or a goat in the camp or outside of it
4Pea ʻikai ʻomi ia ki he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, ke ʻatu ha feilaulau kia Sihova ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻo Sihova; ʻe tuku ʻae toto ki he tangata ko ia: kuo lingi ʻe ia ʻae toto; pea ʻe motuhi ʻae tangata ko ia mei hono kakai:
4instead of bringing it to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting to present it as an offering to the LORD before His tabernacle—that man shall incur bloodguilt. He has shed blood and must be cut off from among his people.
5Koeʻuhi ke ʻomi ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻenau ngaahi feilaulau, ʻaia ʻoku nau ʻatu ʻi he ngoue ʻataʻatā, ʻio, kenau ʻomi ia kia Sihova, ki he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, ki he taulaʻeiki, pea ke ʻatu ia ko e ngaahi feilaulau fakalelei kia Sihova.
5For this reason the Israelites will bring to the LORD the sacrifices they have been offering in the open fields. They are to bring them to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and offer them as sacrifices of peace to the LORD.
6Pea ʻe luluku ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻae toto ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻo Sihova ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, pea tutu ʻae ngako ko e meʻa namu kakala kia Sihova.
6The priest will then sprinkle the blood on the altar of the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and burn the fat as a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
7Pea ʻe ʻikai tenau toe ʻatu ʻenau ngaahi feilaulau ki he ngaahi faʻahikehe, ʻaia naʻa nau holi kovi ki ai. Ko e fekau fai maʻu eni kiate kinautolu ʻo taʻengata ʻi honau ngaahi toʻutangata kotoa pē.
7They must no longer offer their sacrifices to the goat demons to which they have prostituted themselves. This will be a permanent statute for them for the generations to come.’
8¶ Pea te ke pehē kiate kinautolu, Ko e tangata ko ia ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, pe ʻi he muli ʻoku nofo ʻāunofo ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻoku ne ʻatu ha feilaulau tutu pe ha feilaulau,
8Tell them that if anyone from the house of Israel or any foreigner living among them offers a burnt offering or a sacrifice
9Pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻomi ia ki he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, ke ʻatu ia kia Sihova; ko e tangata ko ia ʻe motuhi mei hono kakai.
9but does not bring it to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting to sacrifice it to the LORD, that man must be cut off from his people.
10¶ Pea ko e tangata kotoa pē ko ia ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, pe ʻi he muli ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻoku kai ʻe ia ha toto: teu sio fakafulofula ki he tangata ko ia ʻoku kai toto, pea motuhi ia mei hono kakai.
10If anyone from the house of Israel or a foreigner living among them eats any blood, I will set My face against that person and cut him off from among his people.
11He ko e moʻui ʻae kakano ko e toto pea kuo u tuku ia kiate kimoutolu ki homou feilaulauʻanga ke fai ʻae fakalelei maʻa homou laumālie; he ko e toto ʻoku ne fai ʻae fakalelei maʻae laumālie.
11For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement for your souls upon the altar; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.
12Ko ia naʻaku pehē ai ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻoua naʻa kai toto ʻe ha tokotaha ʻiate kimoutolu, pea ʻoua naʻa kai toto ʻe ha muli ʻe tokotaha ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻiate kimoutolu.
12Therefore I say to the Israelites, ‘None of you may eat blood, nor may any foreigner living among you eat blood.’
13Pea ʻilonga ʻae tangata kotoa pē ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pe ʻi he muli ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻaia ʻoku tuli pe maʻu ha manu ha manu kapakau ʻoku ngofua ke kai: ko e moʻoni ʻe lingi ʻe ia hono toto, ʻo ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae efu.
13And if any Israelite or foreigner living among them hunts down a wild animal or bird that may be eaten, he must drain its blood and cover it with dirt.
14He ko e moʻui ia ʻae kakano kotoa pē; ko hono toto ko ʻene moʻui ia; ko ia ne u pehē ai ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻoua naʻa mou kai ʻae toto ʻo ha meʻa moʻui ʻe taha: he ko e toto ko e moʻui ia ʻae kakano kotoa pē; ko ia ʻoku ne kai ia ʻe motuhi ia.
14For the life of all flesh is its blood. Therefore I have told the Israelites, ‘You must not eat the blood of any living thing, because the life of all flesh is its blood; whoever eats it must be cut off.’
15Pea ko ia ʻoku ne kai ʻaia naʻe mate mahaki, pē ko ia kuo haehae ʻe he manu, pe ko ha tokotaha ia ʻo homou fonua pe ko ha muli, ʻe fō ʻe ia hono kofu mo kaukau ia ʻi he vai, pea ʻe taʻemaʻa ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi: pea ʻe toki maʻa ia.
15And any person, whether native or foreigner, who eats anything found dead or mauled by wild beasts must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening; then he will be clean.
16Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai fō ia, pe kaukau hono sino; pea ʻe ʻiate ia pe ʻene hia.
16But if he does not wash his clothes and bathe himself, then he shall bear his iniquity.”
