Levitiko 21:1-9

¹Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, Lea ki he kau taulaʻeiki ko e ngaahi foha ʻo ʻElone, ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOua naʻa fakaʻuliʻi ha tokotaha koeʻuhi ko e pekia ʻoku ʻi hono kakai:

²Ka koeʻuhi ko hono kāinga moʻoni, ʻoku ofi kiate ia, koeʻuhi ko ʻene faʻē, pea mo ʻene tamai, pea mo hono foha, pea mo hono ʻofefine, pea mo hono tokoua,

³Pea koeʻuhi ko hono tuofefine ko e tāupoʻou, ʻaia ʻoku ofi kiate ia, pea kuo teʻeki ai hano husepāniti; ʻoku ngofua ʻene taʻemaʻa koeʻuhi ko ia.

⁴Kaeʻoua naʻa ne fakaʻuliʻi ia koeʻuhi ko ha taha ʻeiki ʻi hono kakai, ke ne taʻemaʻa ai.

⁵“ʻE ʻikai tenau tekefua honau ʻulu, pe tele hono potu tuliki ʻoe kava, pe fai ha tafatafaʻi ʻi honau sino.

⁶Tenau māʻoniʻoni ki honau ʻOtua, kaeʻoua naʻa fakaongokoviʻi ʻae huafa ʻo honau ʻOtua: he ko e ngaahi feilaulau kia Sihova ʻoku ngaohi ʻi he afi, pea ʻoku nau ʻatu ʻae mā ʻa honau ʻOtua; ko ia ʻe māʻoniʻoni ai ʻakinautolu.

⁷‌ʻE ʻikai tenau fakamaʻu mali mo ha fefine faʻa feʻauaki, pe ha taʻelotu; pea ʻoua naʻa nau maʻu ʻae fefine kuo tukuange mei hono mali: he ʻoku māʻoniʻoni ia ki hono ʻOtua.

⁸Ko ia ke ke fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ia; he ʻoku ne ʻatu ʻae mā ʻa ho ʻOtua; ʻe māʻoniʻoni ia kiate koe: he ko au Sihova, ʻoku ou fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻakimoutolu, ʻoku ou māʻoniʻoni.

⁹Pea ko e ʻofefine ʻo ha taulaʻeiki, kapau ʻoku ne fakahalaʻi ʻe ia ia ʻi he fai feʻauaki, ʻoku ne fakahalaʻi ʻene tamai: ʻe tutu ʻaki ia ʻae afi.
