Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1You shall not see your brother’s ox or his sheep go astray and hide yourself from them. You shall surely bring them again to your brother.
1“ʻOua naʻa ke mamata ki he ʻalu hē ʻae pulu pe ko e sipi ʻa ho tokoua, pea fufū koe mei ai: ka te ke toe ʻomi moʻoni ia ki ho tokoua.
2If your brother isn’t near to you, or if you don’t know him, then you shall bring it home to your house, and it shall be with you until your brother comes looking for it, and you shall restore it to him.
2Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai ofi ho tokoua kiate koe, pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai te ke ʻilo ia, te ke toki ʻomi ia ki ho fale ʻoʻou, pea ʻe ʻiate koe ia ka ʻi heʻene kumi ia ʻe ho tokoua, te ke toki ʻatu ia kiate ia.
3So you shall do with his donkey. So you shall do with his garment. So you shall do with every lost thing of your brother’s, which he has lost and you have found. You may not hide yourself.
3Te ke fai pehē pe ki heʻene ʻasi pea ke fai pehē ki hono kofu: pea ki he ngaahi meʻa liʻaki kotoa pē, ʻaia kuo ne liʻaki, pea kuo ke ʻilo, ke ke fai pehē ni pe: ʻe tapu ʻa hoʻo fufū ʻe koe.
4You shall not see your brother’s donkey or his ox fallen down by the way, and hide yourself from them. You shall surely help him to lift them up again.
4¶ “ʻOua naʻa ke mamata ki he ʻasi ʻa ho tokoua pe ko ʻene pulu ʻoku tō ʻi he hala, pea ke fufū koe mei ai: ka te ke tokoni moʻoni ia ke hiki hake.
5A woman shall not wear men’s clothing, neither shall a man put on women’s clothing; for whoever does these things is an abomination to the LORD your God.
5¶ “Ke ʻoua naʻa kofuʻaki ʻe he fefine ʻaia ʻoku kau ki he tangata, pea ʻoua naʻa ʻai ʻe he tangata ʻae kofu fakafefine: he ko kinautolu ʻoku fai pehē ʻoku kovi lahi kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.
6If you come across a bird’s nest on the way, in any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs, and the hen sitting on the young, or on the eggs, you shall not take the hen with the young.
6¶ “Kapau ʻoku ke ʻilo fakafokifā pe ʻae pununga ʻoe manu, ʻi he hala pe ʻi he ʻakau, pe ʻi he kelekele, pe ko ha ʻuhiki pe ko e foʻi manu, mo e faʻē ʻoku mohe ki hono ʻuhiki, pe ki he foʻi manu, ʻoua naʻa ke puke fakataha ʻae faʻē mo hono ʻuhiki:
7You shall surely let the hen go, but the young you may take for yourself, that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days.
7Ka ke tukuange ʻae faʻē ke ʻalu, pea ke toʻo hono ʻuhiki kiate koe; koeʻuhi ke hoko ai ʻae lelei kiate koe, pea ke fakatolonga ai ho ngaahi ʻaho.
8When you build a new house, then you shall make a railing around your roof, so that you don’t bring blood on your house if anyone falls from there.
8¶ “ʻOka ke ka langa ha fale foʻou, te ke ngaohi ki ai hono ʻā ke takatakai ʻi he tuʻafale, telia naʻa ke ʻomi ha toto ki ho fale, ʻokapau ʻe tō ha tangata mei ai.
9You shall not sow your vineyard with two kinds of seed, lest all the fruit be defiled, the seed which you have sown, and the increase of the vineyard.
9¶ “ʻOua naʻa ke tō hoʻo ngoue vaine ʻaki ʻae ngaahi tenga kehekehe: telia naʻa fakahalaʻi ʻae fua ʻo hoʻo tenga ʻaia kuo ke tō, mo e fua ʻo hoʻo vaine.
10You shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together.
10¶ “ʻOua naʻa ke tauluaʻi fakataha ʻae pulu mo e ʻasi ki he huo toho.
11You shall not wear clothes of wool and linen woven together.
11¶ “ʻOua naʻa ke ʻai ʻae kofu ʻoku anga kehekehe, ʻo hangē ko e fulufulu sipi mo e vavae kuo fakataha.
12You shall make yourselves fringes on the four corners of your cloak with which you cover yourself.
12¶ “Ke ke ngaohi kiate koe ʻae ngaahi pao ki ho pulupulu ki hono potu ʻe fā, ʻaia ʻoku fakapulou ʻaki koe.
13If any man takes a wife, and goes in to her, hates her,
13¶ “Kapau ʻoku fili mai ha uaifi ʻe ha tangata pea ʻalu ia kiate ia, pea fehiʻa kiate ia,
14accuses her of shameful things, gives her a bad name, and says, “I took this woman, and when I came near to her, I didn’t find in her the tokens of virginity;”
14Pea ʻoku ne fakatupu lau kiate ia ʻo langaʻi ʻae lauʻikovi kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, Ne u fili ʻae fefine ni, pea ʻi heʻeku haʻu kiate ia, naʻaku ʻilo naʻe ʻikai ko e taʻahine ia.
15then the young lady’s father and mother shall take and bring the tokens of the young lady’s virginity to the elders of the city in the gate.
15Pea ʻe toki toʻo mai ʻo ʻomi ʻe he tamai mo e faʻē ʻae taʻahine, hono fakaʻilonga ʻo ʻene taʻahine ki he kau mātuʻa ʻi he matapā ʻoe kolo:
16The young lady’s father shall tell the elders, “I gave my daughter to this man as his wife, and he hates her.
16Pea ʻe pehē ʻe he tamai ʻae taʻahine ki he kau mātuʻa, Ne u foaki ʻeku taʻahine ki he tangata ke na mali, pea ʻoku fehiʻa ia kiate ia.
17Behold, he has accused her of shameful things, saying, ‘I didn’t find in your daughter the tokens of virginity;’ and yet these are the tokens of my daughter’s virginity.” They shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city.
17Pea vakai, kuo ne fakalanga lau kiate ia, ʻo pehē, ʻOku ʻikai ko e taʻahine ʻa ho ʻofefine: ka ko e moʻoni ko hono fakaʻilonga eni ʻo ʻene taʻahine. Pea tenau folahi atu ʻae holo ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau mātuʻa ʻoe kolo.
18The elders of that city shall take the man and chastise him.
18Pea ʻe ʻave ʻe he kau mātuʻa ʻoe kolo ko ia ʻae tangata ko ia ʻo tautea ia:
19They shall fine him one hundred shekels of silver, and give them to the father of the young lady, because he has given a bad name to a virgin of Israel. She shall be his wife. He may not put her away all his days.
19Pea kenau fakamaaua ia ke totongiʻaki ʻa e sikeli siliva ʻe teau, ʻo ʻatu ia ki he tamai ʻae fefine, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene langaʻi ʻae lau kovi ki he taʻahine ʻi ʻIsileli: pea ʻe hoko ia ko hono uaifi; ʻe ʻikai ngofua ke ne tukuange ia ʻi hono ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē.
20But if this thing is true, that the tokens of virginity were not found in the young lady,
20Pea kapau ʻoku moʻoni ʻae meʻa ni, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga ʻoe taʻahine ki he fefine:
21then they shall bring out the young lady to the door of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death with stones, because she has done folly in Israel, to play the prostitute in her father’s house. So you shall remove the evil from among you.
21Tenau toki ʻomi kituʻa ʻae fefine mei he matapā ʻoe fale ʻo ʻene tamai, pea ʻe tolongaki ia ʻe he kau tangata ʻo hono kolo ʻaki ʻae maka ke mate ia, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fai angakovi ʻi ʻIsileli, ʻo fai feʻauaki ʻi he fale ʻo ʻene tamai: ʻe pehē pe hoʻo tukuange ʻae kovi meiate kimoutolu.
22If a man is found lying with a woman married to a husband, then they shall both die, the man who lay with the woman and the woman. So you shall remove the evil from Israel.
22¶ “Kapau ʻe ʻilo ha tangata ʻoku mohe ia mo e fefine kuo mali husepāniti, ʻe mate fakatouʻosi ai ʻakinaua, ʻae tangata naʻe mohe mo e fefine, pea mo e fefine: ʻe pehē pe hoʻo tukuange ʻae kovi mei ʻIsileli.
23If there is a young lady who is a virgin pledged to be married to a husband, and a man finds her in the city, and lies with her,
23¶ “Kapau ʻoku poloʻi ha taʻahine ko e tāupoʻou ki ha tangata, pea maʻu ia ʻe ha tangata ʻi he kolo, pea mohe mo ia;
24then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you shall stone them to death with stones; the lady, because she didn’t cry, being in the city; and the man, because he has humbled his neighbor’s wife. So you shall remove the evil from among you.
24Te mou toki ʻomi ʻakinaua kituʻa ki he matapā ʻoe kolo, pea te mou tolongaki ʻaki ʻakinaua ʻae maka ke na mate: ʻae fefine, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai kalanga ia, ka kuo ne ʻi he kolo; mo e tangata ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fakahalaʻi ʻae uaifi ʻo hono kaungāʻapi: ʻe pehē pe hoʻo tukuange ʻae kovi meiate kimoutolu.
25But if the man finds the lady who is pledged to be married in the field, and the man forces her and lies with her, then only the man who lay with her shall die;
25¶ “Pea kapau ʻoku maʻu ʻi he ngoue ʻe ha tangata ʻae taʻahine poloʻi, pea tohotoho ia, pea mohe mo ia: ko e tangata pe naʻe mohe mo ia ʻe mate:
26but to the lady you shall do nothing. There is in the lady no sin worthy of death; for as when a man rises against his neighbor and kills him, even so is this matter;
26Ka ʻe ʻikai te ke fai ha meʻa ki he taʻahine; ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he taʻahine ha angahala ke mate ai ia: ka ʻoku hangē ko e tuʻu hake ha tangata ki hono kaungāʻapi, ʻo ne tāmateʻi ia, ʻoku pehē pe ʻae meʻa ni:
27for he found her in the field, the pledged to be married lady cried, and there was no one to save her.
27He naʻa ne maʻu ia ʻi he ngoue, pea naʻe kalanga ʻae taʻahine poloʻi, ka naʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha ke fakamoʻui ia.
28If a man finds a lady who is a virgin, who is not pledged to be married, grabs her and lies with her, and they are found,
28¶ “Kapau ʻoku maʻu ʻe ha tangata ha taʻahine ko e tāupoʻou, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai poloʻi, pea puke ia, pea mohe mo ia, pea kuo ʻilo ʻakinaua;
29then the man who lay with her shall give to the lady’s father fifty shekels of silver. She shall be his wife, because he has humbled her. He may not put her away all his days.
29Pehē ʻe ʻatu ʻe he tangata naʻe mohe mo ia ki he tamai ʻae taʻahine ʻa e sikeli siliva ʻe nimangofulu; pea ʻe hoko ʻae fefine ko ia ko hono uaifi: ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fakahalaʻi ia, ʻoku ʻikai lelei ʻene tukuange ia lolotonga ʻa ʻene moʻui kotoa pē.
30A man shall not take his father’s wife, and shall not uncover his father’s skirt.
30¶ Ke ʻoua naʻa mali ha tangata mo e uaifi ʻo ʻene tamai pe fakatelefua ʻene tamai.
