:19:06
This day new laws are made
for us of Maui.

:19:11
Because these laws
are made for two people,

:19:14
I speak them in our two tongues,
:19:18
English first and then Hawaiian.
:19:23
First law: In this place,
everyone will serve God.

:19:29
Everyone will love Jesus.
:19:32
Next law:
There will be no killing of people.

:19:36
No grown people, not children,
no sick babies will be killed.

:19:45
Next law:
No more will girls go to the ships.

:19:53
Next law: When the sun
goes down beneath the water,

:19:57
the sailors will go back to the ships.
:20:01
Next law: No more will the grog shops
sell the rum to my people.

:20:10
Next law: There will be no more
sleeping together in mischief

:20:16
without getting married.
:20:23
Next law: Here, Kelolo
will be chief of the policemen.

:20:28
He will beat with sticks
the breakers of these laws.

:20:32
He will put them in the jailhouse
here in the fort.

:20:37
Let us now obey these laws.
:20:40
Then no more will people laugh at us
how we live in Lahaina.

:20:46
The four of us speak for every ship
in Lahaina harbor, ma'am.

:20:50
For over two years my men
have been at sea,

:20:52
and they will not be bound
by a curfew.

:20:54
We bring lots of custom to this place.
:20:57
It used to be
the best port in the Pacific.
