Exodus 29
1 “Now this is what you are to do to consecrate Aaron and his sons to serve Me as priests: Take a young bull and two rams without blemish,
“Wɔ nu siawo hena Aron kple via ŋutsuwo ŋuti kɔkɔ kple wo ɖoɖo nunɔlawoe. Lé nyitsu fɛ̃ ɖeka kple agbo eve siwo ŋu naneke megblẽ le o,
2 along with unleavened bread, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil. Make them out of fine wheat flour,
eye nàtsɔ abolo si wowɔ kple amɔ maʋamaʋã, abolo vivi si woblu kple ami kple akpɔnɔ siwo dzi wokɔ ami ɖo. Woatsɔ wɔ memi awɔ aboloawo kple akpɔnɔawo.
3 put them in a basket, and present them in the basket, along with the bull and the two rams.
Tsɔ wo de kusi aɖe me, eye nàtsɔ kusi la, nyi la kple agbo aveawo vɛ.
4 Then present Aaron and his sons at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and wash them with water.
Le tsi na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo le agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
5 Take the garments and clothe Aaron with the tunic, the robe of the ephod, the ephod itself, and the breastplate. Fasten the ephod on him with its woven waistband.
Do Aron ƒe dziwui, kɔmewu ʋlaya, kɔmewu la ŋutɔ kple akɔtatsyɔnu la nɛ, tsɔ alidziblanu si wolɔ̃ aɖaŋutɔe la bla ali dzi nɛ,
6 Put the turban on his head and attach the holy diadem to the turban.
eye nàtsɔ tablanu la kple sikaŋgoblanu kɔkɔe la ɖo ta nɛ.
7 Then take the anointing oil and anoint him by pouring it on his head.
Tsɔ ami kɔkɔe la, eye nàsi ami ɖe ta nɛ.
8 Present his sons as well and clothe them with tunics.
Yɔ via ŋutsuwo vɛ, eye nàtsɔ woƒe dziwuiwo ado na wo.
9 Wrap the sashes around Aaron and his sons and tie headbands on them. The priesthood shall be theirs by a permanent statute. In this way you are to ordain Aaron and his sons.
Bla ta na wo kple woƒe tablanuwo, tsɔ alidziblanu tso gae ɖe woƒe akɔta, ahablae ɖe axame na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo, ale be nunɔladɔ nanye wo tɔ tegbee. Aleae nàɖo Aron kple viawo nunɔlawoe.
10 You are to present the bull at the front of the Tent of Meeting, and Aaron and his sons are to lay their hands on its head.
“Emegbe la, he nyitsu la va agbadɔ la ŋgɔ, eye nàna Aron kple via ŋutsuwo nada asi ɖe nyitsu la ƒe ta dzi.
11 And you shall slaughter the bull before the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
Wui le Yehowa ŋkume le agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
12 Take some of the blood of the bull and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger; then pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
Tsɔ wò asibidɛ de eƒe ʋu me, sisi ʋu la ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ƒe lãdzowo ŋu, eye nàkɔ ʋu mamlɛa katã ɖe vɔsamlekpui la te.
13 Take all the fat that covers the entrails and the lobe of the liver, and both kidneys with the fat on them, and burn them on the altar.
Emegbe nàɖe ami si le nyitsu la ƒe dɔmenuwo ŋu. Ɖe aklã kple ayiku eveawo kple ami si le wo ŋu, eye nàtɔ dzo wo le vɔsamlekpui la dzi.
14 But burn the flesh of the bull and its hide and dung outside the camp; it is a sin offering.
Esia megbe la, nàtɔ dzo lã blibo la kple eƒe ayi kple afɔdzi si le dɔ me nɛ la le asaɖa la godo abe nuvɔ̃ŋutivɔsa ene.
15 Take one of the rams, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on its head.
“Emegbe la, Aron kple via ŋutsuwo nada asi ɖe agboawo dometɔ ɖeka ƒe ta dzi,
16 You are to slaughter the ram, take its blood, and sprinkle it on all sides of the altar.
eye nàwui. Woaɖe eya hã ƒe ʋu ahlẽ ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu kpe ɖo.
17 Cut the ram into pieces, wash the entrails and legs, and place them with its head and other pieces.
Fli agbo la, kpala lã la, eƒe dɔmenuwo kple eƒe afɔwo, eye nàtsɔ wo da ɖe eƒe ta kple lãkɔ bubuawo dzi.
18 Then burn the entire ram on the altar; it is a burnt offering to the LORD, a pleasing aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD.
Tɔ dzo lã blibo la ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi. Numevɔsae wònye na Yehowa, eye wòdzea eŋu ŋutɔ.
19 Take the second ram, and Aaron and his sons are to lay their hands on its head.
“Azɔ la, he agbo evelia vɛ. Na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo nada asi ɖe eya hã ƒe ta dzi.
20 Slaughter the ram, take some of its blood, and put it on the right earlobes of Aaron and his sons, on the thumbs of their right hands, and on the big toes of their right feet. Sprinkle the remaining blood on all sides of the altar.
Wui eye nàɖe ʋu la asi ɖe Aron kple via ŋutsuwo ƒe nuɖusitowo, woƒe degblefetsu ɖusitɔwo kple woƒe nuɖusi ƒe afɔbidɛ gãtɔwo ŋu. Hlẽ ʋu mamlɛa ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu kpe ɖo.
21 And take some of the blood on the altar and some of the anointing oil and sprinkle it on Aaron and his garments, as well as on his sons and their garments. Then he and his garments will be consecrated, as well as his sons and their garments.
Emegbe la, nàha ʋu la ƒe ɖe le vɔsamlekpui la ŋu, nàtsakae kple amisisi la, eye nàhlẽe ɖe Aron kple via ŋutsuawo ƒe awuwo ŋu. Ekema woawo ŋutɔwo kple woƒe awuwo ŋu akɔ na Yehowa.
22 Take the fat from the ram, the fat tail, the fat covering the entrails, the lobe of the liver, both kidneys with the fat on them, and the right thigh (since this is a ram for ordination),
“Azɔ ɖe agbo la ƒe ami kpe ɖe asike dami la, ami si le eƒe dɔmenuwo ŋu, nàɖe eƒe aklã kple ayiku eveawo kple ami si le wo ŋu kpe ɖe agbo la ƒe ɖusimeta ŋu. (Esiae nye agbo na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo ɖoɖo nunɔlawoe.)
23 along with one loaf of bread, one cake of bread made with oil, and one wafer from the basket of unleavened bread that is before the LORD.
Tsɔ nu siawo kpe ɖe abolo bɔbɔe ɖeka kple abolo vivi ɖeka kple akpɔnɔ ɖeka ŋu tso kusi si me abolo si wowɔ kple amɔ maʋamaʋã si woda ɖe Yehowa ŋkume la me.
24 Put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons and wave them before the LORD as a wave offering.
Tsɔ nu siawo de asi na Aron kple viawo. Na woanye wo le yame abe vɔsa na Yehowa ƒe dzesi ene.
25 Then take them from their hands and burn them on the altar atop the burnt offering as a pleasing aroma before the LORD; it is an offering made by fire to the LORD.
Le esia yome la, xɔ nu siawo le wo si, eye nàtɔ dzo wo ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi abe numeme si ʋẽna lĩlĩlĩ ɖe Yehowa ene.
26 Take the breast of the ram of Aaron’s ordination and wave it before the LORD as a wave offering, and it will be your portion.
Ɖe agbo si wòwu hena Aron ɖoɖo nunɔlae la ƒe akɔ. Nyee le yame le Yehowa ŋkume abe vɔsa ƒe dzesi ene. Akɔ sia nazu tɔwò.
27 Consecrate for Aaron and his sons the breast of the wave offering that is waved and the thigh of the heave offering that is lifted up from the ram of ordination.
“Tsɔ agbo si wowu hena Aron kple via ŋutsuwo ŋuti kɔkɔ la ƒe akɔta kple atawo na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo.
28 This will belong to Aaron and his sons as a regular portion from the Israelites, for it is the heave offering the Israelites will make to the LORD from their peace offerings.
Ele be Israelviwo nadzɔ woƒe vɔsalãwo ƒe akpa siawo ɣe sia ɣi, nenye ŋutifafavɔsa loo alo akpedavɔsa abe woƒe vɔsa na Yehowa ene.
29 The holy garments that belong to Aaron will belong to his sons after him, so they can be anointed and ordained in them.
“Ele be woadzra eƒe awu kɔkɔeawo ɖo hena Via ŋutsu si ava xɔ ɖe eteƒe la ŋuti kɔkɔ ne wole eŋuti kɔm tso dzidzime yi dzidzime.
30 The son who succeeds him as priest and enters the Tent of Meeting to minister in the Holy Place must wear them for seven days.
Ame sia ame si ava nye nunɔlagã le Aron megbe la ado awu siawo ŋkeke adre hafi ade asi subɔsubɔdɔwo wɔwɔ me le agbadɔ la me kple Kɔkɔeƒe la siaa.
31 You are to take the ram of ordination and boil its flesh in a holy place.
“Tsɔ agbo si ŋu dɔ wowɔ le nunɔlawo ɖoɖo me, eye nàɖa eƒe lã le teƒe kɔkɔe aɖe.
32 At the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, Aaron and his sons are to eat the meat of the ram and the bread that is in the basket.
Na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo naɖu lã la kple abolo si le kusi la me le agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
33 They must eat those things by which atonement was made for their ordination and consecration. But no outsider may eat them, because these things are sacred.
Ale woaɖu nu si wotsɔ ɖe woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ɖae hafi ɖo wo nunɔlawoe hekɔ wo ŋuti. Ame bubu aɖeke mekpɔ mɔ aɖu wo o, elabena nu kɔkɔewo wonye.
34 And if any of the meat of ordination or any bread is left until the morning, you are to burn up the remainder. It must not be eaten, because it is sacred.
Nenye be agbo si wotsɔ ɖo wo nunɔlawoe la ƒe lã aɖe susɔ alo abolo la ƒe ɖe susɔ ŋu ke ɖe edzi la, tɔ dzoe. Mele be woaɖui o, elabena ele kɔkɔe.
35 This is what you are to do for Aaron and his sons based on all that I have commanded you, taking seven days to ordain them.
“Ale nàɖo Aron kple via ŋutsuwo nunɔlawo le mɔ sia nu. Wo ɖoɖo nanɔ edzi ŋkeke adre.
36 Sacrifice a bull as a sin offering each day for atonement. Purify the altar by making atonement for it, and anoint it to consecrate it.
Ele be nàtsɔ nyitsu ɖeka awɔ nuvɔ̃ŋutivɔsa gbe sia gbe. Emegbe la, nàkɔ vɔsa la ŋu to nu vɔ̃ ɖeɖe ɖa le eŋu me. Kɔ ami ɖe edzi be eŋu nakɔ.
37 For seven days you shall make atonement for the altar and consecrate it. Then the altar will become most holy; whatever touches the altar will be holy.
Me avulénuwo le vɔsamlekpui la dzi gbe sia gbe ŋkeke adre be nàkɔ vɔsamlekpui la ŋu na Mawu. Le esia megbe la, vɔsamlekpui la azu kɔkɔe, nu sia nu si aka eŋu la hã azu kɔkɔe, eye ame siwo le kɔkɔe la koe aka asi eŋu.”
38 This is what you are to offer regularly on the altar, each day: two lambs that are a year old.
“Tsɔ alẽ eve sa vɔe ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi gbe sia gbe,
39 Offer one lamb in the morning and the other at twilight.
ɖeka le ŋdi me, eye evelia le fiẽ me.
40 With the first lamb offer a tenth of an ephah of fine flour, mixed with a quarter hin of oil from pressed olives, and a drink offering of a quarter hin of wine.
Tsɔ wɔ memi kilogram ɖeka, ami lita ɖeka kple wain lita ɖeka kpe ɖe alẽ ɖeka ŋu.
41 And offer the second lamb at twilight with the same grain offering and drink offering as in the morning, as a pleasing aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD.
Tsɔ alẽ evelia kple wɔ memi la kple wain sa vɔe le fiẽ me abe ale si nèwɔ le ŋdi me ene, wòanye vɔsa si ʋẽna lĩlĩlĩ na Yehowa.
42 For the generations to come, this burnt offering shall be made regularly at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the LORD, where I will meet you to speak with you.
“Esiae nye numevɔsa si miawo kple miaƒe dzidzimeviwo miawɔ gbe sia gbe na Yehowa le agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu. Mado go wò le afi ma, eye maƒo nu kpli wò.
43 I will also meet with the Israelites there, and that place will be consecrated by My glory.
Mado go Israelviwo le afi ma, eye nye ŋutikɔkɔe akɔ agbadɔ la ŋu.
44 So I will consecrate the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and I will consecrate Aaron and his sons to serve Me as priests.
Ɛ̃, makɔ agbadɔ la, vɔsamlekpui la, Aron kple via ŋutsuwo, ame siwo nye subɔlawo kple nunɔlawo la ŋu.
45 Then I will dwell among the Israelites and be their God.
Manɔ Israelviwo dome, manye woƒe Mawu,
46 And they will know that I am the LORD their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt so that I might dwell among them. I am the LORD their God.
eye woanya be, nyee nye Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la. Mekplɔ wo tso Egipte ale be mate ŋu anɔ wo dome. Nyee nye Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la.”
