Leviticus 10

1 Now Aaron’s sons Nadab and Abihu took their censers, put fire in them and added incense, and offered unauthorized fire before the LORD, contrary to His command.

Ke Aron ƒe viŋutsu eve, Nadab kple Abihu, ɖe dzo makɔmakɔ ɖe woƒe dzudzɔdosonuwo me, ɖe dzudzɔdonu kɔ ɖe dzo la dzi, eye wodo dzudzɔ na Yehowa. Nu sia mesɔ ɖe se si Yehowa de na wo la dzi o,

2 So fire came out from the presence of the LORD and consumed them, and they died in the presence of the LORD.

eya ta dzo tso Yehowa gbɔ, eye wòtsrɔ̃ wo; ale woku le Yehowa ŋkume.

3 Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the LORD meant when He said: ‘To those who come near Me I will show My holiness, and in the sight of all the people I will reveal My glory.’” But Aaron remained silent.

Tete Mose gblɔ na Aron be, “Esiae Yehowa gblɔ esi wògblɔ be, ‘Maɖe ɖokuinye afia ame siwo tena ɖe ŋutinye la kɔkɔe eye woade bubu ŋunye le amewo katã ŋkume.’” Eye Aron zi ɖoɖoe kpoo.

4 Moses summoned Mishael and Elzaphan, sons of Aaron’s uncle Uzziel, and said to them, “Come here; carry the bodies of your cousins outside the camp, away from the front of the sanctuary.”

Mose yɔ Misael kple Elzafan, wo tɔɖia Uziel ƒe viŋutsuwo eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Miyi miakɔ mia nɔviwo ƒe ŋutilã fiafiawo tso Agbadɔ la ŋkume yi ɖada ɖe asaɖa la godo.”

5 So they came forward and carried them, still in their tunics, outside the camp, as Moses had directed.

Woyi ɖakɔ wo; wole woƒe awutewui ʋlayawo me abe ale si Mose gblɔ na wo la ene.

6 Then Moses said to Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, “Do not let your hair become disheveled and do not tear your garments, or else you will die, and the LORD will be angry with the whole congregation. But your brothers, the whole house of Israel, may mourn on account of the fire that the LORD has ignited.

Mose gblɔ na Aron kple Via ŋutsu eve, Eleaza kple Itamar be, “Migafa ame kukuawo o, eye migagblẽ miaƒe ɖa ɖi mavumavui abe konyifafa ƒe dzesi ene o; migadze miaƒe awuwo hã o. Ne miewɔ nu siawo la, eƒe dziku abi ɖe Israel dukɔ blibo la ŋu. Ke Israelvi bubuawo ya ate ŋu afa avi na Nadab kple Abihu le dzo dziŋɔ si Yehowa ɖo ɖa la ta.

7 You shall not go outside the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, or you will die, for the LORD’s anointing oil is on you.” So they did as Moses instructed.

Ke miawo ya la, mele be miadzo le Agbadɔ la nu o. Ne miedzo la, miaku elabena Yehowa ƒe ami si wosi na mi la gale mia dzi.” Eye wowɔ se si Mose de na wo la dzi.

8 Then the LORD said to Aaron,

Yehowa gblɔ na Aron bena,

9 “You and your sons are not to drink wine or strong drink when you enter the Tent of Meeting, or else you will die; this is a permanent statute for the generations to come.

“Wò kple viwò ŋutsuwo, migano wain alo aha muame aɖeke ne miele Mawu ƒe Agbadɔ me yi ge o. Ne mienoe la, miaku. Esia nye ɖoɖo mavɔ hena dzidzime siwo gbɔna.

10 You must distinguish between the holy and the common, between the clean and the unclean,

Wò dɔdeasiwo anye be mialé avu ɖe amewo nu, miafia vovototo siwo le nu kɔkɔewo kple nu makɔmakɔwo, nu siwo dza kple nu siwo medza o la dome,

11 so that you may teach the Israelites all the statutes that the LORD has given them through Moses.”

eye miafia Israelviwo se siwo katã Yehowa de na mi to Mose dzi la ameawo.”

12 And Moses said to Aaron and his remaining sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, “Take the grain offering that remains from the offerings made by fire to the LORD and eat it without leaven beside the altar, because it is most holy.

Mose gblɔ na Aron kple Via ŋutsu eve siwo susɔ, Eleaza kple Itamar be, “Mitsɔ nuɖuvɔsa si susɔ esi woɖe wɔ asiʋlo ɖeka le eŋu na Yehowa le vɔsamlekpui la dzi; miakpɔ egbɔ be amɔʋãtike mele eme o, eye miaɖui le vɔsamlekpui la gbɔ. Vɔsa sia nye nu kɔkɔe,

13 You shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your share and your sons’ share of the offerings made by fire to the LORD; for this is what I have been commanded.

eya ta miaɖui le Kɔkɔeƒe la. Miawo kple mia viwo tɔe wònye tso vɔsa si wome na Yehowa la me, elabena eyae nye se si wode nam.

14 And you and your sons and daughters may eat the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the contribution in a ceremonially clean place, because these portions have been assigned to you and your children from the peace offerings of the sons of Israel.

Ke miate ŋu aɖu lã la ƒe akɔ kple ata si wonye le yame le Yehowa ŋkume abe nu si wotsɔ nɛ ƒe dzesi ene la, le teƒe kɔkɔe ɖe sia ɖe. Wò kple viwò ŋutsuwo kple viwò nyɔnuwo ƒe nuɖuɖue. Eyae nye mia tɔ le Israelviwo ƒe akpedavɔsawo me.

15 They are to bring the thigh of the contribution and the breast of the wave offering, together with the fat portions of the offerings made by fire, to wave as a wave offering before the LORD. It will belong permanently to you and your children, as the LORD has commanded.”

“Ele be ameawo natsɔ ata si woɖe ɖe aga kple akɔ si wona esi wotɔ dzo amiawo la vɛ. Woatsɔ wo ana Yehowa to wo nyenye le yame me. Ekema woazu wò kple viwòwo tɔ, elabena esiae nye Yehowa ƒe ɖoɖo.”

16 Later, Moses searched carefully for the goat of the sin offering, and behold, it had been burned up. He was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s remaining sons, and asked,

Mose di gbɔ̃tsu si wotsɔ vɛ na nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa la le afi sia afi. Eva dze sii be wotɔ dzoe xoxo! Nu sia na wòdo dɔmedzoe vevie ɖe Eleaza kple Itamar, Aron ƒe viŋutsu eve siwo susɔ la ŋu.

17 “Why didn’t you eat the sin offering in the holy place? For it is most holy; it was given to you to take away the guilt of the congregation by making atonement for them before the LORD.

Ebia wo be, “Nu ka ta mieɖu nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa la, si nye nu kɔkɔe ƒe nu kɔkɔe la le teƒe kɔkɔe la o, le esime wotsɔe na mi be miatsɔ aɖe ameawo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo kple dzidadawo ɖa, eye mialé avu le woawo kple Yehowa dome?

18 Since its blood was not brought inside the holy place, you should have eaten it in the sanctuary area, as I commanded.”

Zi ale si wometsɔ eƒe ʋu yi kɔkɔeƒe la o la, ɖe wòle be miaɖui le afi ma abe ale si meɖo na mi ene hafi.”

19 But Aaron replied to Moses, “Behold, this very day they presented their sin offering and their burnt offering before the LORD. Since these things have happened to me, if I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been acceptable in the sight of the LORD?”

Ke Aron xɔ nya ɖe wo nu le Mose gbɔ hegblɔ be, “Wosa woƒe nu vɔ̃ vɔsa kple numevɔ le Yehowa ŋkume; ke nenye ɖe meɖu nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa la egbe la, ɖe wòadze Yehowa ŋua?”

20 And when Moses heard this explanation, he was satisfied.

Esi Mose se nya siawo la, eƒe dzi dze eme.
