< Leviticus 6 >
1 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
2 The soul who will have sinned, and, despising the Lord, will have denied to his neighbor the deposit which he had entrusted to his safekeeping, or who will have extorted anything by force, or who will have made a false accusation,
“Sɛ obi yɛ bɔne tia me, sɛ ebia, ɔmpɛ sɛ ɔsane de biribi a wɔde ama no asie kɔto baabi a ɛda anaasɛ ɔbɔ korɔno, anaa ɔsisi ne yɔnko,
3 or who will have found a lost thing and then also withheld it by swearing falsely, or who will have done any other of the many things by which men usually sin:
anaa ɔtu ahunu na ɔka ntam sane wɔ ho sɛ dekodeɛ no nni ne nkyɛn a,
4 being convicted of the offense, he shall restore
sɛ obi yɛ bɔne na ɔdi ho fɔ a, ɔbɛsane de ne korɔnodeɛ no anaa ne tintinnyɛdeɛ anaa deɛ wɔde maa no sieeɛ anaa agyapadeɛ a wɔde ahyɛ ne nsa, anaa adeɛ a ayera no aba.
5 all that he wanted to obtain by fraud, the whole plus an additional fifth part, to the owner against whom he brought the damage.
Biribiara a waka ho ntanhunu no nso, ɔbɛsane de ne nyinaa aba na ɔde ho mfɛntom ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka ho abrɛ onipa ko a ne dea no, ɛda a ɔrebɔ afɔdie ho afɔdeɛ no.
6 Then, on behalf of his sin, he shall offer an immaculate ram from the flock, and he shall give it to the priest, according to the estimation and measure of the offense.
Nʼafɔdie ho afɔrebɔdeɛ no bɛyɛ odwennini a ɔnni dɛm. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔdi ɛboɔ biara a wɔbɛbɔ no no. Ɔde no bɛma ɔsɔfoɔ
7 And he shall pray for him in the sight of the Lord, and he shall be released from any one of those things that he did when he sinned.
na ɔsɔfoɔ no de no ayɛ mpatadeɛ ama no wɔ Awurade anim na wɔde ne bɔne akyɛ no.”
8 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
9 Instruct Aaron and his sons: This is the law of a holocaust. It shall be burned upon the altar, all night until morning. The fire shall be from the same altar.
“Fa saa mmara a ɛfa ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ho yi ma Aaron ne ne mmammarima. ‘Wɔbɛgya ɔhyeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ no wɔ ogya no so anadwo mu no nyinaa a afɔrebukyia ogya no gu so rehye.
10 The priest shall be vested with the tunic and the linen undergarments. And he shall take up the ashes of that which the devouring fire has consumed, and, placing them next to the altar,
Adeɛ kye a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhyɛ nʼasɔfotadeɛ nahanaha wɔ aseɛ na wahyɛ atadetam korɔ no ara bi ngugusoɔ na wakɔpra ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ nsõ no de agu afɔrebukyia no nkyɛn.
11 he shall strip off his former vestments, and being clothed with others, he shall carry them beyond the camp, and he shall cause them to be consumed, even to glowing embers, in a very clean place.
Afei, ɔbɛsesa ne ntadeɛ no na wasoa nsõ no afiri beaeɛ hɔ de akɔgu beaeɛ foforɔ a wɔate hɔ no.
12 But the fire on the altar shall burn always, for the priest shall nourish it by placing wood under it each day in the morning. And, laying down the holocaust, he shall burn the fat of the peace offerings upon it.
Saa ɛberɛ yi nyinaa ɛsɛ sɛ ogya a ɛwɔ afɔrebukyia no so no dɛre. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɛdum. Anɔpa biara ɔsɔfoɔ no de ogya foforɔ bɛhyɛ mu na ɔde ɛda biara ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ agu so, na wahye sradeɛ a wɔde bɔ ɛda biara asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ no.
13 This is the perpetual fire which shall never fail upon the altar.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɛberɛ biara ogya no kɔ so dɛre. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɛdum.
14 This is the law of the sacrifice and the libations, which the sons of Aaron shall offer in the sight of the Lord, and before the altar.
“‘Atokoɔ afɔdeɛ ho mmara nso nie: Aaron mmammarima bɛgyina afɔrebukyia no anim na wɔde atokoɔ afɔrebɔ no ama Awurade.
15 The priest shall take a handful of fine wheat flour, which has been sprinkled with oil, and all the frankincense, which has been placed upon the flour, and he shall burn it upon the altar as a memorial of most sweet odor to the Lord.
Ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛsa asikyiresiam a wɔayam no muhumuhu no ne nsabuo ma na ɔde ngo ne aduhwam afra ahye no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so sɛ ananmusideɛ ama Awurade; na Awurade ani bɛsɔ.
16 And the remaining portion of the flour, Aaron shall eat with his sons, without leaven. And he shall eat it in the holy place, in the atrium of the tabernacle.
Ɔsa ne nsabuo ma wie a, deɛ ɛbɛka no yɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima dea a wɔbɛdie. Wɔbɛdi a wɔremfa mmɔreka mfra wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no adihɔ hɔ.
17 Yet for this reason, it shall not be leavened, because part of it is offered as an incense of the Lord. The Holy of holies shall it be, just as what is offered on behalf of sin and of transgression.
Si so dua sɛ, sɛ wɔto a, wɔmmfa mmɔreka mfra mu. Mede saa ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ a wɔbɔ maa me no bi ama asɔfoɔ no. Esiane sɛ ne nyinaa yɛ bɔne ne afɔdie ho afɔrebɔ enti, ɛyɛ kronkron.
18 Only the males of the stock of Aaron shall eat it. This shall be an everlasting ordinance in your generations concerning the sacrifices of the Lord. All who will touch these shall be sanctified.
Aaron asefoɔ mmarima ne asɔfoɔ na wɔnni mfiri awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so nkɔsi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so. Nanso asɔfoɔ no nko ara na wɔnni afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔabɔ no ogya so ama Awurade no.’”
19 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
20 This is the oblation of Aaron and of his sons, which they must offer to the Lord in the day of their anointing. They shall offer a tenth part of an ephah of fine wheat flour as a perpetual sacrifice, half of it in the morning, and half of it in the evening.
“Ɛda a wɔbɛsra Aaron ne ne mmammarima ngo no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde asikyiresiam lita mmienu ne fa brɛ Awurade. Wɔde fa bɛba anɔpa na wɔde fa aba anwummerɛ.
21 It shall be sprinkled with oil and fried in a frying pan. Then it shall be offered hot, as a most sweet odor to the Lord,
Wɔde ngo bɛfra ato wɔ dadeɛ apaawa so. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔto no yie na wɔde brɛ Awurade sɛ nʼafɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛsɔ nʼani yie.
22 by the priest who by law succeeds his father. And it shall be entirely burned on the altar.
Ɔsɔfoɔ a ɔfiri Aaron mmammarima mu a wɔrehyɛ no ɔsɔfoɔ ma wasi nʼagya anan no de bɛma Awurade sɛdeɛ wɔahyɛ ho mmara afebɔɔ sɛ wɔnhye ne nyinaa no.
23 For every sacrifice of the priest shall be consumed by fire; neither shall anyone eat from it.
Ɔsɔfoɔ biara atokoɔ afɔdeɛ a ɔbɛbɔ no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhye ne nyinaa. Ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔdi.”
24 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Afei Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
25 Say to Aaron and his sons: This is the law of the victim for sin. In the place where the holocaust is offered, it shall be immolated in the sight of the Lord. It is the Holy of holies.
“Ka kyerɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima sɛ bɔne afɔrebɔ ho mmara nie: Saa afɔrebɔdeɛ yi ho yɛ kronkron yie enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no Awurade anim wɔ beaeɛ a wɔkum ɔhyeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ wɔ hɔ no.
26 The priest who offers it shall eat it in the holy place, in the atrium of the tabernacle.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ a ɔyɛ afɔrebɔ no ho adwuma no we afɔrebɔdeɛ no wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no adihɔ hɔ.
27 Whatever will touch its flesh shall be sanctified. If a garment will be sprinkled with its blood, it shall be washed in a holy place.
Wɔn a wɔate wɔn ho a wɔyɛ asɔfoɔ nko ara na wɔwɔ ho kwan sɛ wɔde wɔn nsa ka ɛnam no bi; na sɛ ɛba sɛ aboa no mogya bi pete wɔn ntadeɛ mu a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsi ntadeɛ no wɔ beaeɛ a wɔate ho hɔ.
28 Then the earthen vessel, in which it was soaked, shall be broken. But if the vessel will be of brass, it shall be scoured and washed with water.
Kukuo a wɔnoaa ɛnam no wɔ mu no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔbɔ no; na sɛ ɛyɛ kɔbere nso a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔtwi mu, na wɔde nsuo hohoro mu nyinaa yie.
29 Every male of priestly descent shall feed on its flesh, because it is the Holy of holies.
Ɔbarima biara a ɔfra asɔfoɔ no mu no bɛdi afɔrebɔdeɛ no bi—wɔn nko ara—ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ kronkron yie.
30 For the victim that is slain for sin, whose blood is carried into the tabernacle of the testimony, for expiation in the Sanctuary, shall not be eaten, but it shall be consumed by fire.
Sɛ wɔde bɔne ho afɔrebɔdeɛ no mogya no bi kɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan mu hɔ de kɔyɛ mpatadeɛ wɔ kronkronbea hɔ a, ɔsɔfoɔ biara renwe bi. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ogya hye aboa no nyinaa wɔ Awurade anim.
