Leviticus 1
1 Then the LORD called to Moses and spoke to him from the Tent of Meeting, saying,
Afei, Awurade kasa fii Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu kyerɛɛ Mose se,
2 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When any of you brings an offering to the LORD, you may bring as your offering an animal from the herd or the flock.
“Kyerɛ Israelfo no se, ‘sɛ morebɔ Awurade afɔre a, momfa mo anantwi ne mo nguan no bi na mommɔ saa afɔre no.
3 If one’s offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he is to present an unblemished male. He must bring it to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting for its acceptance before the LORD.
“‘Sɛ mo ɔhyew afɔrebɔde no yɛ nantwi a ofi mo nantwibuw mu a, momfa nantwi a onnii dɛm na ɛmmɔ saa afɔre no sɛnea ɛbɛsɔ Awurade ani. Fa aboa no kɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no pon ano na ɛhɔ na asɔfo no begye wʼayɛyɛde a wode rebrɛ Awurade no.
4 He is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, so it can be accepted on his behalf to make atonement for him.
Ɛsɛ sɛ onipa a ɔde aboa no reba no de ne nsa gu aboa no ti so sɛ mpata ma afɔrebɔni no. Onyankopɔn bɛpɛ aboa no wu sen sɛ afɔrebɔni a ɔde saa aboa no bɛba no bewu sɛ ne bɔne so akatua.
5 And he shall slaughter the young bull before the LORD, and Aaron’s sons the priests are to present the blood and sprinkle it on all sides of the altar at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
Afɔrebɔni no bekum aboa no wɔ hɔ wɔ Awurade anim. Na Aaron mmabarima asɔfo no asɔw aboa no mogya de akyerɛ Awurade. Na wɔde mogya no apete afɔremuka a esi Ahyiae Ntamadan no kwan no ano no ne ho nyinaa.
6 Next, he is to skin the burnt offering and cut it into pieces.
Afei, asɔfo no bɛpa aboa no ho nwoma na wɔabobɔw.
7 The sons of Aaron the priest shall put a fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire.
Na ɔsɔfo Aaron mmabarima no bɛsɔ gya wɔ afɔremuka no so.
8 Then Aaron’s sons the priests are to arrange the pieces, including the head and the fat, atop the burning wood on the altar.
Na wɔde aboa no akwaa bi ne ne ti ne ne srade ka ho agu nnyansin no so.
9 The entrails and legs must be washed with water, and the priest shall burn all of it on the altar as a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
Momfa nsu nhohoro nʼayamde ne ne nan ho na asɔfo no nhyew no wɔ afɔremuka no so. Ɛyɛ ɔhyew afɔre, aduan afɔrebɔ, ehua a ɛsɔ Awurade ani.
10 If, however, one’s offering is a burnt offering from the flock—from the sheep or goats—he is to present an unblemished male.
“‘Sɛ afɔrebɔ no yɛ ɔhyew afɔre na aboa no yɛ oguan anaa abirekyi a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔyɛ onini a ne ho nni dɛm biara.
11 He shall slaughter it on the north side of the altar before the LORD, and Aaron’s sons the priests are to sprinkle its blood against the altar on all sides.
Onipa a ɔde no bae no bekum no Awurade anim wɔ afɔremuka no atifi na Aaron mmabarima asɔfo no apete mogya no agu afɔremuka no so ne ɛho nyinaa.
12 He is to cut the animal into pieces, and the priest shall arrange them, including the head and fat, atop the burning wood that is on the altar.
Ɔbɛhyehyɛ nam no na asɔfo no de nʼasinasin no ne ti no ne ne srade no agu nnyansin a egu afɔremuka no so no so.
13 The entrails and legs must be washed with water, and the priest shall bring all of it and burn it on the altar; it is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
Wɔde nsu bɛhohoro nʼayamde ne ne nan no ho ansa na asɔfo no ahyew wɔ afɔremuka no so de ama Awurade; efisɛ ɔhyew afɔre sɔ Awurade ani.
14 If, instead, one’s offering to the LORD is a burnt offering of birds, he is to present a turtledove or a young pigeon.
“‘Sɛ obi pɛ sɛ ɔde anomaa bɔ ɔhyew afɔre a, ɔmfa nturukuku anaa mmorɔnomamma.
15 Then the priest shall bring it to the altar, twist off its head, and burn it on the altar; its blood should be drained out on the side of the altar.
Ɔsɔfo no bɛfa anomaa no de no akɔ afɔremuka no so na watew ne ti ahyew no, na wasɔn ne mogya no agu afɔremuka no nkyɛn.
16 And he is to remove the crop with its contents and throw it to the east side of the altar, in the place for ashes.
Afei, ɔsɔfo no beyi ne mene ase, atutu ne ntakra no na watow agu nsõ no mu wɔ afɔremuka no apuei fam.
17 He shall tear it open by its wings, without dividing the bird completely. And the priest is to burn it on the altar atop the burning wood. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
Afei, ɔbɛtwe ne ntaban mu ama emu ntin no atetew asensɛn hɔ, na ɔsɔfo no ahyew no wɔ afɔremuka no so. Ɛyɛ ɔhyew afɔre, aduan afɔrebɔ, ehua a ɛsɔ Awurade ani.
