Levitiko 21:5-17

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.

¹⁰“Pea ko ia ʻoku taulaʻeiki lahi ʻi hono ngaahi kāinga, ʻaia naʻe lingi ki hono ʻulu ʻae lolo ʻoe fakanofo, pea kuo fakatapui ke ʻai ʻae ngaahi kofu, ʻe ʻikai toʻo ʻe ia hono tatā, pe hae hono kofu;

¹¹Pea ʻe ʻikai te ne ʻalu ia ki ha sino ʻoku mate, pe fakahalaʻi ʻe ia ia koeʻuhi ko ʻene tamai, pe ko ʻene faʻē;

¹²Pea ʻe ʻikai ʻalu ia kituaʻā ʻi he faletapu, pe fakahalaʻi ʻae faletapu ʻo hono ʻOtua; he ko e tatā ʻoe lolo tākai ʻo hono ʻOtua ʻoku ʻiate ia: Ko au ko Sihova.

¹³Pea te ne fili ʻe ia hono uaifi ko e tāupoʻou.

¹⁴Ko e fefine paea, pe ko e fefine fakamāvae, pe ko e taʻelotu, pe ko e feʻauaki, ko kinautolu ni ʻe ʻikai te ne fili: kae maʻu ʻe ia ha taʻahine mei hono kakai ko hono uaifi.

¹⁵Pea ʻe ʻikai te ne fakahalaʻi ʻe ia hono hako ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo hono kakai: he ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ia.”

¹⁶Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,

¹⁷Lea kia ʻElone, ʻo pehē, “Ko ia ʻi ho hako ʻi honau toʻutangata kotoa pē, ʻoku ʻiate ia hano mele, ʻoua naʻa ʻunuʻunu mai ia ke ʻatu ʻae mā ʻa hono ʻOtua.
