Leviticus 1
1 Then the LORD called to Moses and spoke to him from the Tent of Meeting, saying,
Afei, Awurade kasa firii Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
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 Israelfoɔ no sɛ, ‘sɛ morebɔ Awurade afɔdeɛ a, momfa mo anantwie ne mo nnwan no bi na mommɔ saa afɔdeɛ 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 afɔrebɔdeɛ a mode rebɛbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no yɛ nantwie a ɔfiri mo nantwibuo mu a, momfa nantwie a ɔnnii dɛm na mommɔ saa afɔdeɛ no sɛdeɛ ɛbɛsɔ Awurade ani. Fa aboa no kɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ɛpono ano na ɛhɔ na asɔfoɔ no bɛgye wʼayɛyɛdeɛ 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 tiri so sɛ mpatadeɛ ma afɔrebɔni no. Onyankopɔn bɛpɛ aboa no wuo sene sɛ afɔrebɔni a ɔde saa aboa no bɛba no bɛwu 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 bɛkum aboa no wɔ hɔ wɔ Awurade anim. Na Aaron mmammarima asɔfoɔ no asɔ aboa no mogya de akyerɛ Awurade. Na wɔde mogya no apete afɔrebukyia a ɛsi Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no kwan no ano no ne ɛho nyinaa.
6 Next, he is to skin the burnt offering and cut it into pieces.
Afei, asɔfoɔ no bɛpa aboa no ho nhoma na wɔabobɔ.
7 The sons of Aaron the priest shall put a fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire.
Na ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron mmammarima no bɛsɔ ogya wɔ afɔrebukyia 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 afaafa bi ne ne ti ne ne sradeɛ agu nnyensin 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.
Wɔnhohoro nʼayamdeɛ ne ne nan ho na asɔfoɔ no nhye no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so na ayɛ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ 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 aboa a wɔde no rebɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no yɛ odwan anaa abirekyie 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 baeɛ no bɛkum no Awurade anim wɔ afɔrebukyia no atifi na Aaron mmammarima asɔfoɔ no apete mogya no agu afɔrebukyia 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 ɛnam no na asɔfoɔ no de nʼasinasini no ne botire no ne ne sradeɛ no agu nnyensin a ɛgu afɔrebukyia 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 nsuo bɛhohoro nʼayamdeɛ ne ne nan no ho ansa na asɔfoɔ no ahye no afɔrebukyia no so de ama Awurade; ɛfiri sɛ, ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ 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 ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ a, ɔmfa nturukuku anaa mmorɔnoma mma.
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.
Ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛfa anomaa no de no akɔ afɔrebukyia no so na wate ne ti ahye no, na ne mogya no, ɔbɛsɔne agu afɔrebukyia 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, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛyi ne mene ase, atutu ne ntakra no na wato agu nsõ no mu wɔ afɔrebukyia no apueeɛ 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 nʼatabu mu ama emu ntini no atete asensɛn hɔ. Na ɔsɔfoɔ no ahye no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so na Awurade de anigyeɛ bɛgye saa afɔrebɔ yi.
