1The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
1Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
2“Tell Aaron and his sons to separate themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, which they make holy to me, and that they not profane my holy name. I am the LORD.
2Lea kia ʻElone pea ki hono ngaahi foha, koeʻuhi kenau fakamavae ʻakinautolu mei he ngaahi meʻa māʻoniʻoni ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea ke “ʻOua naʻa nau fakahalaʻi hoku huafa māʻoniʻoni ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ko ia ʻoku nau fakatapui kiate au: Ko au ko Sihova.
3“Tell them, ‘If anyone of all your offspring throughout your generations approaches the holy things which the children of Israel make holy to the LORD, having his uncleanness on him, that soul shall be cut off from before me. I am the LORD.
3Tala kiate kinautolu, Ko ia ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi homou hako kotoa pē ʻi homou ngaahi toʻutangata, ʻoku ʻalu ki he ngaahi meʻa māʻoniʻoni, ʻaia ʻoku fakatapui ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Sihova, ka ʻoku ne taʻemaʻa, ʻe motuhi ʻae laumālie ko ia mei hoku ʻao: Ko au ko Sihova.
4“‘Whoever of the offspring of Aaron is a leper or has a discharge shall not eat of the holy things until he is clean. Whoever touches anything that is unclean by the dead, or a man who has a seminal emission,
4“Ko e tangata ko ia ʻi he hako ʻo ʻElone ʻoku kilia, pe mahaki ko e ʻau; ʻoua naʻa kai ia ʻi he ngaahi meʻa māʻoniʻoni, kaeʻoua ke maʻa ia. Pea mo ia ʻoku ala ki ha meʻa taʻemaʻa ʻi he mate, pe ʻi ha tangata ʻoku ʻau noa hono mahaki;
5or whoever touches any creeping thing by which he may be made unclean, or a man from whom he may become unclean, whatever uncleanness he has—
5Pe ha taha ʻoku ala ki ha meʻa totolo, ʻaia ʻe hoko ʻo taʻemaʻa ai, pe ʻi ha tangata ʻaia ʻe hoko ʻo pihia ai, ʻi he mahaki ʻoku taʻemaʻa ai ia;
6the person that touches any such shall be unclean until the evening, and shall not eat of the holy things unless he bathes his body in water.
6Ko e tangata kuo ala ki ha meʻa pehē ʻe taʻemaʻa ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi, pea ʻe ʻikai kai ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa māʻoniʻoni, kaeʻoua ke kaukau hono sino ʻi he vai.
7When the sun is down, he shall be clean; and afterward he shall eat of the holy things, because it is his bread.
7Pea ka tō ʻae laʻā, ʻe toki maʻa ia, pea kai ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa māʻoniʻoni; he koeʻuhi ko ʻene meʻakai ia.
8He shall not eat that which dies of itself or is torn by animals, defiling himself by it. I am the LORD.
8Ko ia ʻoku mate mahaki pe, pe ko ia kuo haehae ʻe he manu, ʻoua naʻa ne kai ia ke fakahala ai ia: Ko au ko Sihova.
9“‘They shall therefore follow my commandment, lest they bear sin for it and die in it, if they profane it. I am the LORD who sanctifies them.
9“Ko ia kenau tauhi ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ni, telia naʻa nau halaia ai, pea mate ai, ʻo kapau ʻoku nau fakahalaʻi ia: Ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻakinautolu.
10“‘No stranger shall eat of the holy thing: a foreigner living with the priests, or a hired servant, shall not eat of the holy thing.
10“ʻE ʻikai kai ʻe ha muli ki he ngaahi meʻa māʻoniʻoni: ko e ʻāunofo ʻae taulaʻeiki, pe ko e tamaioʻeiki unga ngāue, ʻe ʻikai kai ia ʻi he meʻa māʻoniʻoni.
11But if a priest buys a slave, purchased by his money, he shall eat of it; and those who are born in his house shall eat of his bread.
11Pea kapau ʻe fakatau ha tokotaha ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻaki ʻene paʻanga, ʻe ngofua ʻene kai ʻaʻana, pea mo ia kuo fānau ʻi hono fale: te na kai ʻi heʻene meʻakai.
12If a priest’s daughter is married to an outsider, she shall not eat of the heave offering of the holy things.
12Pea kapau ʻoku mali ʻae ʻofefine ʻoe taulaʻeiki mo e tangata kehe, ʻe ʻikai ngofua ʻa ʻene kai ʻaʻana ʻi he meʻa ʻatu ʻoe ngaahi meʻa māʻoniʻoni.
13But if a priest’s daughter is a widow, or divorced, and has no child, and has returned to her father’s house as in her youth, she may eat of her father’s bread; but no stranger shall eat any of it.
13Pea kapau ko e fefine paea ʻae ʻofefine ʻoe taulaʻeiki, pe kuo fakamāvaeʻi pea ʻikai haʻane tamasiʻi, pea kuo toe ʻomi ia ki he fale ʻo ʻene tamai, ʻo hangē ko ʻene kei siʻi, ʻe kai ia ʻi he meʻakai ʻa ʻene tamai: kaeʻoua naʻa kai ia ʻe ha muli.
14“‘If a man eats something holy unwittingly, then he shall add the fifth part of its value to it, and shall give the holy thing to the priest.
14¶ “Pea kapau ʻe kai faainoa pe ʻe ha tangata ʻae meʻa māʻoniʻoni, te ne fakalahi ʻaki ia hono nima ʻoe vahe ʻo ia, pea ʻatu ia ki he taulaʻeiki fakataha mo e meʻa māʻoniʻoni.
15The priests shall not profane the holy things of the children of Israel, which they offer to the LORD,
15Pea ʻe ʻikai tenau fakahalaʻi ʻae ngaahi meʻa māʻoniʻoni ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻaia ʻoku nau ʻatu kia Sihova:
16and so cause them to bear the iniquity that brings guilt when they eat their holy things; for I am the LORD who sanctifies them.’”
16Pe tuku ʻakinautolu ke fua ʻae hia ʻae fai hala, ʻi heʻenau kai ʻenau ngaahi meʻa māʻoniʻoni: he ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻakinautolu.”
17The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
17¶ Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
18“Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘Whoever is of the house of Israel, or of the foreigners in Israel, who offers his offering, whether it is any of their vows or any of their free will offerings, which they offer to the LORD for a burnt offering:
18Lea kia ʻElone, pea ki hono ngaahi foha, pea ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli, pea ke pehē kiate kinautolu, ʻilonga ʻae tangata ʻi he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, pe ʻi he ngaahi muli ʻi ʻIsileli, ʻoku loto ke ʻatu ʻene meʻaʻofa ʻi heʻene ngaahi fuakava, pea ki heʻene ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ʻatu loto ʻataʻatā pe, ʻaia ʻoku nau ʻatu kia Sihova ko e feilaulau tutu:
19that you may be accepted, you shall offer a male without defect, of the bulls, of the sheep, or of the goats.
19Ke mou ʻatu ʻo fai loto lelei pe, ʻae manu tangata taʻehanomele mei he fanga pulu pe ko e fanga sipi, pe ko e fanga kosi.
20But you shall not offer whatever has a defect, for it shall not be acceptable for you.
20Ka ko ia ʻoku ai hano mele, ʻoua naʻa mou ʻatu ia; koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai leleiʻia ai ʻakimoutolu.
21Whoever offers a sacrifice of peace offerings to the LORD to accomplish a vow, or for a free will offering of the herd or of the flock, it shall be perfect to be accepted. It shall have no defect.
21Pea ko ia ʻoku ne ʻatu kia Sihova ʻae feilaulau ʻoe ngaahi meʻa fakamelino ke fakahoko ʻaki ʻene fuakava, pea ko e meʻa ʻatu loto lelei ʻi he fanga pulu, pe ʻi he fanga sipi, ke haohaoa ia koeʻuhi ke maʻu lelei ia; ʻoua naʻa ʻi ai hano mele.
22You shall not offer what is blind, is injured, is maimed, has a wart, is festering, or has a running sore to the LORD, nor make an offering by fire of them on the altar to the LORD.
22Ko e kui, pe ko e fasi, pe ko e mutu, pe ko e meʻa fufula, pe ko e kamaa, pe ko e mongumangu, ʻoua naʻa mou ʻatu mei ai kia Sihova, pe fai ʻaki ia ha feilaulau tutu ʻaki ʻae afi ki he funga feilaulauʻanga ʻo Sihova.
23Either a bull or a lamb that has any deformity or lacking in his parts, that you may offer for a free will offering; but for a vow it shall not be accepted.
23Ko e pulu pe ko e lami ʻoku ʻi ai ha meʻa kovi, pe ʻoku taʻehaohaoa ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha, ʻe ngofua ke ʻatu ia ko e feilaulau loto ʻataʻatā ia: ka ʻe ʻikai maʻu lelei ia ʻi he fuakava.
24You must not offer to the LORD that which has its testicles bruised, crushed, broken, or cut. You must not do this in your land.
24ʻOua naʻa mou ʻatu kia Sihova ʻaia kuo fakavolu, pe kuo taʻomia, pe kuo mafesi, pe kuo mahifi; pea ʻoua naʻa mou fai ha feilaulau ʻaki ia ʻi homou fonua.
25You must not offer any of these as the bread of your God from the hand of a foreigner, because their corruption is in them. There is a defect in them. They shall not be accepted for you.’”
25Pea ʻoua naʻa ke ʻatu ʻi he nima ʻo ha muli ʻae meʻakai ʻa homou ʻOtua ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni; koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻi ai ʻenau kovi, pea ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi mele: ʻe ʻikai ʻaonga ia maʻamoutolu.
26The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
26¶ Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
27“When a bull, a sheep, or a goat is born, it shall remain seven days with its mother. From the eighth day on it shall be accepted for the offering of an offering made by fire to the LORD.
27ʻOka fanauʻi ha pulu, pe ha sipi, pe ha kosi, tuku ia ke ʻaho fitu mo ʻene faʻē: pea mei he ʻaho valu ʻo fai ai pe ʻe maʻu lelei pe ia ko e feilaulau kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae afi kia Sihova.
28Whether it is a cow or ewe, you shall not kill it and its young both in one day.
28Pea kapau ko ha pulu fefine ia pe ha sipi fefine, ʻoua naʻa mou tāmateʻi ia mo hono ʻuhiki ʻi he ʻaho pe taha.
29“When you sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving to the LORD, you shall sacrifice it so that you may be accepted.
29Pea ka mou ka loto ke ʻatu ha feilaulau fakafetaʻi kia Sihova, ʻatu ia ʻi he loto ʻataʻatā lelei pe.
30It shall be eaten on the same day; you shall leave none of it until the morning. I am the LORD.
30ʻI he ʻaho pe ko ia ʻe kai ia ke ʻosi ʻoua naʻa mou tuku hono toe ki he ʻapongipongi; Ko au ko Sihova.
31“Therefore you shall keep my commandments, and do them. I am the LORD.
31“Ko ia ke mou tauhi ai ʻeku ngaahi fekau, mo fai ki ai; Ko au ko Sihova.
32You shall not profane my holy name, but I will be made holy among the children of Israel. I am the LORD who makes you holy,
32Pea ʻoua naʻa mou fakahalaʻi hoku huafa māʻoniʻoni; kae ʻapasia kiate au ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: Ko au ko Sihova ʻaia ʻoku ou fakatapui ʻakimoutolu;
33who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. I am the LORD.”
33Naʻaku ʻomi ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ke hoko ko homou ʻOtua: Ko au ko Sihova.”
