Teutalonome 26

1“When you come into the land that the LORD your God is giving you for an inheritance and have taken possession of it and live in it,

1PEA ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, “ʻOka ke ka hoko ki he fonua ʻaia ʻoku foaki kiate koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ko ho tofiʻa, pea kuo ke maʻu ia, mo ke nofo ki ai;

2you shall take some of the first of all the fruit of the ground, which you harvest from your land that the LORD your God is giving you, and you shall put it in a basket, and you shall go to the place that the LORD your God will choose, to make his name to dwell there.

2Te ke toʻo ai mei he ngaahi ʻuluaki fua kotoa pē ʻoe fonua ʻaia te ke ʻomi mei ho fonua ʻaia ʻoku foaki kiate koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻe faʻo ia ki he kato, pea te ke ʻalu ki he potu ʻaia ʻe fili ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ke ʻai ki ai hono huafa.

3And you shall go to the priest who is in office at that time and say to him, ‘I declare today to the LORD your God that I have come into the land that the LORD swore to our fathers to give us.’

3Pea te ke ʻalu ki he taulaʻeiki ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, pea ke pehē kiate ia, ‘ʻOku ou fakahā he ʻaho ni kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, kuo u haʻu mei he fonua ʻaia naʻe fuakava ai ʻa Sihova ki heʻetau ngaahi tamai ke foaki kiate kitautolu.’

4Then the priest shall take the basket from your hand and set it down before the altar of the LORD your God.

4Pea ʻe toʻo ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻae kato mei ho nima, pea ʻe tuku ia ʻi he haʻohaʻonga ʻoe feilaulauʻanga kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.

5“And you shall make response before the LORD your God, ‘A wandering Aramean was my father. And he went down into Egypt and sojourned there, few in number, and there he became a nation, great, mighty, and populous.

5Pea te ke lea ʻo pehē, ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ‘Ko ʻeku tamai ko e Silia tei mate, pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ia mo e tokosiʻi ki ʻIsipite, pea ʻāunofo ai, pea naʻe tupu ai ia ko e puleʻanga lahi, mo mālohi, mo tokolahi:

6And the Egyptians treated us harshly and humiliated us and laid on us hard labor.

6Pea naʻe fai kovi kiate kimautolu ʻae kakai ʻIsipite, ʻo tautea ʻakimautolu, ʻo hilifaki kiate kimautolu ʻae ngāue fakapōpula lahi:

7Then we cried to the LORD, the God of our fathers, and the LORD heard our voice and saw our affliction, our toil, and our oppression.

7Pea ʻi heʻemau tangi kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻemau ngaahi tamai, naʻe tokanga ʻa Sihova ki homau leʻo, pea naʻe ʻafio ia ki heʻemau ngaahi mamahi, mo ʻemau ngāue, mo homau fakafiuʻi:

8And the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, with great deeds of terror, with signs and wonders.

8Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Sihova ʻakimautolu mei ʻIsipite ʻaki ʻae nima māfimafi, mo e nima kuo mafao atu, pea ʻi he ngaahi meʻa fakamanavahē lahi, mo e ngaahi fakaʻilonga, mo e ngaahi meʻa fakaofo:

9And he brought us into this place and gave us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.

9Pea kuo ne ʻomi ʻakimautolu ki he potu ni, pea kuo ne foaki kiate kimautolu ʻae fonua ni, ko e fonua ʻoku mahu tāfea ʻi he huʻahuhū mo e honi.

10And behold, now I bring the first of the fruit of the ground, which you, O LORD, have given me.’And you shall set it down before the LORD your God and worship before the LORD your God.

10Pea ko eni, vakai, kuo u ʻomi ʻae ʻuluaki fua ʻoe fonua ʻaia kuo ke foaki ʻe koe, ʻE Sihova, kiate au.’ “Pea te ke fokotuʻu ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, pea te ke lotu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua:

11And you shall rejoice in all the good that the LORD your God has given to you and to your house, you, and the Levite, and the sojourner who is among you.

11Pea te ke fiefia ʻi he lelei kotoa pē ʻaia ʻoku foaki ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua kiate koe, pea ki ho fale, ʻa koe, mo e Livai, mo e muli ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu.

12“When you have finished paying all the tithe of your produce in the third year, which is the year of tithing, giving it to the Levite, the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, so that they may eat within your towns and be filled,

12“He hili hao tukuhau ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe vahe ʻo hoʻo meʻa kotoa pē ʻi hono tolu ʻoe taʻu, ʻaia ko e taʻu ʻoe tukuhau, pea kuo ke ʻatu ia ki he kau Livai, mo e muli, mo e tamai mate, mo e uitou, koeʻuhi kenau kai ʻi hoʻo ngaahi kolo, pea mākona;

13then you shall say before the LORD your God, ‘I have removed the sacred portion out of my house, and moreover, I have given it to the Levite, the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, according to all your commandment that you have commanded me. I have not transgressed any of your commandments, nor have I forgotten them.

13Pea te ke toki lea koe ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, Kuo u ʻomi ʻae ngaahi meʻa tapu mei hoku fale, pea kuo u foaki foki ia ki he kau Livai, pea ki he muli, mo e tamai mate, mo e uitou, ʻo hangē ko hoʻo ngaahi fekau kotoa pē ʻaia naʻa ke fekau kiate au: naʻe ʻikai teu talangataʻa ki hoʻo fekau, pea naʻe ʻikai te u fakangalongaloʻi ia:

14I have not eaten of the tithe while I was mourning, or removed any of it while I was unclean, or offered any of it to the dead. I have obeyed the voice of the LORD my God. I have done according to all that you have commanded me.

14Naʻe ʻikai te u kai mei ai ʻi heʻeku mamahi, pea naʻe ʻikai siʻi te u toʻo ha meʻa mei ai ʻi he ngāue taʻemaʻa, pe ʻatu ha meʻa mei ai maʻae kakai mate: ka kuo u tokanga ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua, pea kuo u fai ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi meʻa kuo ke fekau kiate au.

15Look down from your holy habitation, from heaven, and bless your people Israel and the ground that you have given us, as you swore to our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.’

15‌ʻAfio hifo mei ho ʻafioʻanga māʻoniʻoni mei he langi, pea tāpuaki ho kakai ko ʻIsileli, mo e fonua kuo ke foaki mai kiate kimautolu, ʻo hangē ko hoʻo fuakava ki heʻemau ngaahi tamai, ko e fonua ʻoku mahutāfea ʻi he huʻahuhu mo e honi.

16“This day the LORD your God commands you to do these statutes and rules. You shall therefore be careful to do them with all your heart and with all your soul.

16“Kuo fekau kiate koe he ʻaho ni ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ke ke fai ʻae ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni mo e ngaahi fakamaau: ko ia ke ke tauhi mo ke fai ki ai ʻaki ho loto kotoa, mo ho laumālie kotoa.

17You have declared today that the LORD is your God, and that you will walk in his ways, and keep his statutes and his commandments and his rules, and will obey his voice.

17Kuo ke fakahā he ʻaho ni ko Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, pea te ke ʻalu ʻi hono ngaahi hala, mo ke tauhi ʻene ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, mo ʻene ngaahi fekau, mo ʻene ngaahi fakamaau, pea te ke tokanga ki hono leʻo:

18And the LORD has declared today that you are a people for his treasured possession, as he has promised you, and that you are to keep all his commandments,

18Pea kuo fakahā ʻe Sihova he ʻaho ni ko ʻene kakai mahuʻinga ʻakimoutolu, ʻo hangē ko ʻene talaʻofa kiate koe, pea koeʻuhi ke ke tauhi ʻene ngaahi fekau kotoa pē;

19and that he will set you in praise and in fame and in honor high above all nations that he has made, and that you shall be a people holy to the LORD your God, as he promised.”

19Pea ke ne ngaohi koe ke ke māʻolunga lahi ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē kuo ne ngaohi, ʻi he ongoongolelei, pea ʻi he hingoa, pea ʻi he fakaʻapaʻapa; pea koeʻuhi ke ke hoko ko e kakai māʻoniʻoni kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko ʻene folofola.
