Leviticus 10
1 And the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, picking up their censers, placed fire in them and incense upon them, offering in the sight of the Lord a strange fire, such as was not instructed of them.
Na Aaron mma Nadab ne Abihu de ogya guu wɔn aduhwamhyeɛ adeɛ mu. Wɔde aduhwam no petee ogya no so ma wɔnam saa ɛkwan yi so buu Awurade mmara so, ɛfiri sɛ wɔde ogya a ɛnyɛ deɛ Awurade ahyɛ baa nʼanim.
2 And fire coming out from the Lord destroyed them, and they died in the sight of the Lord.
Enti ogya dɛreɛ firi Awurade nkyɛn bɛhyee wɔn.
3 And Moses said to Aaron: “This is what the Lord has spoken: ‘I will be sanctified in those who approach me, and I will be glorified in the sight of all the people.’” And upon hearing this, Aaron was silent.
Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron sɛ, “Awurade kaa sɛ, “‘Mede me ho kronkron bɛkyerɛ wɔn a wɔbɛn me na nnipa nyinaa ahyɛ me animuonyam no, aseɛ ne no.’” Na asɛm no tɔree Aaron mumu.
4 Then Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel, the paternal uncle of Aaron, and he said to them, “Go and take your brothers from the sight of the Sanctuary, and carry them beyond the camp.”
Afei, Mose soma ma wɔkɔfrɛɛ Misael ne Elsafan a wɔyɛ Aaron agya nuabarima mma brɛɛ no. Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monkɔtwe nnipa a wɔahye no nyinaa mfiri Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no anim mfa wɔn nkɔ sraban no akyi.”
5 And moving quickly, they took them as they lay, vested with linen tunics, and cast them outside, just as had been commanded them.
Na wɔkɔsoaa wɔn wɔ wɔn ntadeɛ mu sɛdeɛ Mose aka akyerɛ wɔn no.
6 And Moses said to Aaron, and to his sons, Eleazar and Ithamar: “Do not uncover your heads, and do not rend your garments, lest perhaps you may die, and indignation may rise up over the entire assembly. Let your brothers, and all the house of Israel, bewail the burning that the Lord has kindled.
Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima Eleasa ne Itamar sɛ, “Monnsu. Mommma mo tirinwi nsensɛn hɔ yuu mmfa nkyerɛ sɛ moretwa agyaadwoɔ. Monnsunsuane mo ntadeɛ mu nso. Sɛ moyɛ saa a, Onyankopɔn bɛkum mo nso na nʼabufuo bɛba Israelfoɔ nyinaa so. Nanso Israelfoɔ a wɔaka no deɛ, ɛsiane ogya a Awurade de baeɛ no enti, wɔtumi di Nadab ne Abihu wuo no ho awerɛhoɔ tumi su wɔn nso.
7 But you shall not depart from the door of the tabernacle; otherwise, you shall perish. For certainly the oil of holy anointing is upon you.” And they did all things according to the precept of Moses.
Na mommfiri Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ano, anyɛ saa a mobɛwuwu, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade ngosra wɔ mo so.” Na wɔdii asɛm a Mose kaeɛ no so.
8 The Lord also said to Aaron:
Afei, Awurade hyɛɛ Aaron sɛ,
9 “You shall not drink wine, nor anything that is able to inebriate you or your sons, when you enter into the tabernacle of the testimony, lest you die. For it is an everlasting precept in your generations.
“Sɛ wokɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu a, nnom bobesa anaa nsã a ano yɛ den. Woyɛ saa a, wobɛwu. Saa mmara yi ka wo mmammarima ne wʼasefoɔ nyinaa firi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so kɔsi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so.
10 And so may you have the knowledge to discern between holy and profane, between polluted and clean.
Wo nnwuma ne sɛ, wobɛdi wo nkurɔfoɔ ntam nsɛm akyerɛ wɔn nsonsonoeɛ a ɛda deɛ ɛho te ne deɛ ɛyɛ teta ntam ne deɛ ɛyɛ kronkron ne deɛ ɛnyɛ kronkron ntam,
11 And so may you teach the sons of Israel all my ordinances, which the Lord has spoken to them by the hand of Moses.”
na kyerɛ wɔn mmara a Awurade nam Mose so de ama no nyinaa.”
12 And Moses spoke to Aaron, and to his sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, who were remaining: “Take the sacrifice which remains from the oblation of the Lord, and eat it without leaven next to the altar, because it is the Holy of holies.
Afei, Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima Eleasa ne Itamar sɛ, “Sɛ mohye Awurade afɔrebɔdeɛ no nsabuo ma Awurade a, monni deɛ ɛbɛka no wɔ afɔrebukyia no ho. Monhwɛ sɛ mmɔka nni mu ɛfiri sɛ ɛyɛ kronkron.
13 For you shall eat it in a holy place, which is given to you and to your sons, from the oblations of the Lord, just as has been instructed me.
Enti monni no kronkronbea hɔ. Ɛyɛ wo ne wo mmammarima dea, na ɛyɛ wo ne wo mmammarima no kyɛfa a ɛfiri afɔdeɛ a wɔde ogya bɔ maa Awurade no mu. Yei na wɔahyɛ sɛ menyɛ.
14 Likewise, the breast which is offered, and the shoulder which is separated, you shall eat in a most clean place, you and your sons, and your daughters with you. For these have been set aside for you and your children from the victims which benefit the sons of Israel.
Nanso, ne yan ne ne srɛ a mohim no Awurade anim no, motumi we no beaeɛ biara a amanneɛ kwan so no ɛhɔ teɛ. Ɛyɛ wo, wo mmammarima ne wo mmammaa kyɛfa wɔ Israelfoɔ Asomdwoeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ no mu.
15 Since they have lifted up in the sight of the Lord, the shoulder, and the breast, and the fat that is burned on the altar, these also belong to you and to your sons as a perpetual law, just as the Lord has instructed.”
Ne srɛ ne ne yan a wohim no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ka sradeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔhye de ma Awurade no ho. Afei ɛbɛyɛ wo ne wʼasefoɔ dea daa sɛdeɛ Awurade ahyɛ no.”
16 Meanwhile, when Moses was searching for the he-goat, which had been offered for sin, he discovered it burned up. And being angry against Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were remaining, he said:
Ɛberɛ a Mose bisaa deɛ ayɛ abirekyie a wɔde no bɛbɔ bɔne afɔdeɛ no ho asɛm no, ɔhunuu sɛ wɔahye no. Ɛno enti, ne bo fuu Eleasa ne Itamar a na wɔyɛ Aaron mmammarima no.
17 “Why did you not eat the sacrifice for sin in the holy place, which is the Holy of holies, and which was given to you, so that you might carry the iniquity of the people, and might pray for them in the sight of the Lord,
“Ɔbisaa wɔn sɛ, ‘Adɛn enti na moanwe bɔne afɔrebɔdeɛ no wɔ kronkronbea hɔ? Ɛyɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ kronkron! Wɔde maa mo sɛ momfa nyi nnipa no afɔdie na ɛnyɛ mpatadeɛ mma wɔn wɔ Awurade anim.
18 especially since none of its blood has been brought into the holy places, and since you should have eaten it in the Sanctuary, as was instructed me?”
Esiane sɛ wɔamfa ne mogya ankɔ kronkronbea hɔ no enti, anka mobɛtumi awe no hɔ ara sɛdeɛ mehyɛeɛ no.’”
19 Aaron responded: “This day, the victim for sin has been offered, and the holocaust in the sight of the Lord. But you see what has happened to me. How could I eat it, or please the Lord in the ceremonies, having a sorrowful mind?”
Aaron srɛɛ Mose maa ne mma no sɛ, “Ɛnnɛ me mma no bɔɔ wɔn bɔne afɔdeɛ ne ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ maa Awurade. Nanso hwɛ asɛm yi a ato me. Sɛ mewee bɔne afɔdeɛ ɛnam yi bi ɛnnɛ a, anka Awurade ani bɛsɔ anaa?”
20 But when Moses had heard this, he was satisfied.
Na Mose tee saa no, ɔgye too mu.
