Leviticus 8
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
2 Take Aaron, with his sons, their vestments, and the oil of anointing, a calf for sin, two rams, and a basket with unleavened bread,
“Kplɔ Aron kple via ŋutsuwo vɛ, nàtsɔ woƒe awuwo, ami sisi la, nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsanyitsu la, agbo eveawo kple kusi si me abolo maʋamaʋã le,
3 and gather together all the assembly at the door of the tabernacle.
eye nàna ameha blibo la naƒo ƒu ɖe Mawu ƒe Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.”
4 And Moses did as the Lord had commanded. And when all the crowd was gathered together before the entrance of the tabernacle,
Mose wɔ abe ale si Yehowa de se nɛ be ene eye ameawo katã ƒo ƒu ɖe agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
5 he said: “This is the word that the Lord has ordered to be done.”
Ale Mose gblɔ na ƒuƒoƒe la be, “Ale Yehowa ɖo nam be mawɔe nye esi.”
6 And immediately, he brought forward Aaron and his sons. And when he had washed them,
Mose na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo te va eye wòle tsi na wo,
7 he vested the high priest with the linen undergarment, wrapped him with the wide belt, and clothed him with the hyacinth tunic, and over it he imposed the ephod.
eye wòdo awutewui tɔxɛ la, alidziblanu la, dziwui kple kɔmewu la na Aron.
8 And tying it to the belt, he fitted it to the breastplate, on which was Doctrine and Truth.
Edo akɔtatsyɔnu la hã nɛ, eye wòtsɔ nu si wotsɔna bia gbe Mawui, “Urim” kple “Tumim,” de akɔtatsyɔnu la ƒe kotoku me.
9 Also, he wrapped the headdress on his head, and over it, opposite the forehead, he placed the plate of gold, consecrated with sanctification, just as the Lord had instructed him.
Emegbe la, etsɔ tablanu la bla ta nɛ, eye wòtsi sikaŋgoblanu kɔkɔe la ɖe tablanu la ŋu le ŋgɔgbe abe ale si Yehowa de se nɛ ene.
10 He also took up the oil of anointing, with which he anointed the tabernacle, along with all of its articles.
Emegbe la, Mose tsɔ ami sisi la, eye wòwui ɖe Agbadɔ la kple nu sia nu si le eme la ŋu, eye wòkɔ wo ŋuti.
11 And when he had sprinkled the altar seven times to sanctify it, he anointed it and all its vessels. And the washtub with its base he sanctified with the oil.
Esi wòɖo vɔsamlekpui la gbɔ la, ewu ami sisi la ɖe eŋu zi adre, eye wògawui ɖe nu siwo le vɔsamlekpui la dzi kple tsileze la kple eƒe zɔ ŋu hekɔ wo ŋu.
12 And pouring the oil over Aaron’s head, he anointed and consecrated him.
Emegbe la, eɖo Aron nunɔlae to amikɔkɔ ɖe ta me nɛ me, eye to esia hã me wòkɔ eŋu.
13 Likewise, after he had offered his sons, he vested them with linen tunics, and wrapped them with wide belts, and placed headdresses on them, just as the Lord had ordered.
Le esia yome la, Mose do awu na Aron ƒe viŋutsuwo, bla alidziblanuawo na wo, eye wòɖɔ kuku la na wo abe ale si Yehowa gblɔ nɛ ene.
14 He also offered the calf for sin. And when Aaron and his sons had placed their hands upon its head,
Mose lé nyitsu la hena nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa la. Aron kple via ŋutsuwo da asi ɖe nyitsu la ƒe ta dzi.
15 he immolated it. And drawing the blood, and dipping his finger in it, he touched the horns of the altar all around. And when it was expiated and sanctified, he poured out the remainder of the blood at its base.
Mose wu nyitsu la, tsɔ eƒe ʋu ƒe ɖe, eye wòtsɔ eƒe asibidɛ sisi ʋua ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzowo katã ŋu be yeakɔ vɔsamlekpui la ŋuti. Ekɔ ʋua mamlɛa ɖe vɔsamlekpui la te. Ale wòkɔ eŋuti, eye wòwɔe wòanye avuléle nɛ.
16 Yet truly, the fat which was on the vital organs, and the mesh of the liver, and the two little kidneys with their fat, he burned upon the altar.
Mose ɖe ami siwo katã le dɔmenuawo, aklã kple ayiku eveawo ŋu, eye wòtɔ dzo wo le vɔsamlekpui la dzi.
17 And the calf with the skin, and the flesh, and the dung, he burned beyond the camp, just as the Lord had instructed.
Etɔ dzo nyitsu la ƒe lã mamlɛa, eƒe agbalẽ kple dɔmenuwo le asaɖa la godo abe ale si Yehowa gblɔ nɛ ene.
18 He also offered a ram as a holocaust. And when Aaron and his sons had imposed their hands upon its head,
Emegbe la, etsɔ agbo la hena numevɔsasa na Yehowa. Aron kple via ŋutsuwo da woƒe asiwo ɖe agbo la ƒe ta dzi.
19 he immolated it, and he poured out its blood around the altar.
Mose wui, eye wòhlẽ ʋu la ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋuti godoo.
20 And cutting the ram into pieces, he burned its head, and the limbs, and the fat in the fire,
Efli agbo la, eye wòtɔ dzo lãkɔ la, eƒe ta kple eƒe ami.
21 having first washed the intestines and the feet. And then he burned the whole of the ram upon the altar, because it was a holocaust of most sweet odor to the Lord, just as he had instructed him.
Le esia megbe la, etsɔ tsi klɔ agbo la ƒe dɔmenuwo kple afɔwo, eye wòtɔ dzo wo le vɔsamlekpui la dzi. Ale agbo blibo la fia le Yehowa ŋkume. Esia nye numevɔsa si dze Yehowa ŋu ŋutɔ, elabena Mose zɔ ɖe nu siwo katã Yehowa ɖo nɛ be wòawɔ la dzi pɛpɛpɛ.
22 He also offered the second ram, as a consecration of priests. And Aaron and his sons placed their hands upon its head.
Mose trɔ ɖe agbo evelia si nye ameŋukɔkɔ ƒe agbo la ŋu. Aron kple via ŋutsuwo da woƒe asiwo ɖe agbo la ƒe ta dzi.
23 And when Moses had immolated it, taking up some of its blood, he touched the tip of Aaron’s right ear, and the thumb of his right hand, and similarly also his foot.
Mose wui, eye wòsisi ʋua ɖe Aron ƒe nuɖusito, eƒe asi ƒe adegblefetsu ɖusitɔ kple eƒe ɖusifɔ ƒe adegblefetsu ŋu.
24 He also offered the sons of Aaron. And when, from the blood of the ram which was immolated, he had touched the tip of the right ear of each one, and the thumbs of their right hands, as well as their feet, he poured out the remainder upon the altar all around.
Le esia yome la, esisi ʋua ɖe Aron ƒe viŋutsuwo ƒe ɖusitowo, woƒe asi adegblefetsu ɖusitɔwo kple woƒe ɖusifɔwo ƒe adegblefetsu ŋu, eye wòhlẽ ʋua mamlɛa ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu godoo.
25 Yet truly, the fat, and the rump, and all the fat that covers the intestines, and the mesh of the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat, and the right shoulder, he separated.
Mose tsɔ agbo la ƒe ami, asike la, ami si le dɔmenuwo ŋu, aklã kple ayiku eveawo kple wo ŋu miwo kpe ɖe eƒe ɖusita ŋu.
26 Then, taking bread without leaven from the basket of unleavened bread, which was before the Lord, and a cake sprinkled with oil, and a wafer, he placed them upon the fat and the right shoulder,
Nu siwo wòtsɔ da ɖe agbo la ƒe lã ƒe akpa siawo dzi la woe nye abolo maʋamaʋã ɖeka si tso kusi si wotsɔ ɖo Yehowa ŋkume la me, abolo si wode amii kple akpɔnɔ ɖeka.
27 delivering all these to Aaron and his sons. And when they had lifted them up in the sight of the Lord,
Mose tsɔ nu siawo katã de asi na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo, eye wonye wo le yame abe vɔsa tɔxɛ na Yehowa ene.
28 he received them again from their hands, and he burned them upon the altar of holocaust, because it was an oblation of consecration, as a sweet odor of sacrifice to the Lord.
Mose gaxɔ nu siawo le wo si, eye wòtɔ dzo wo kpe ɖe numevɔsa la ŋuti na Yehowa le vɔsamlekpui la dzi. Vɔsa sia dze Yehowa ŋu.
29 And he took his portion from the ram of consecration, and he lifted up its breast in the sight of the Lord, just as the Lord had instructed him.
Azɔ la, Mose tsɔ agbo la ƒe akɔ, eye wòtsɔe na Yehowa to enyenye le yame le vɔsamlekpui la ŋgɔ me. Ameŋukɔkɔ ƒe agbo la ƒe akpa siae nye Mose tɔ abe ale si Yehowa ɖoe ene.
30 And taking up the ointment, and the blood that was on the altar, he sprinkled it over Aaron and his vestments, and over his sons and their vestments.
Mose tsɔ ami sisi la azɔ kple ʋu si wòhlẽ ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu la ƒe ɖe, eye wòhlẽe ɖe Aron kple via ŋutsuwo kple woƒe awuwo ŋu. Ale wòkɔ Aron kple via ŋutsuwo kple woƒe awuwo ŋu, be Yehowa nawɔ wo ŋu dɔ.
31 And when he had sanctified them with their vestments, he instructed them, saying: “Cook the flesh before the entrance of the tabernacle, and eat it there. Likewise, eat the loaves of consecration, which have been placed in the basket, just as the Lord instructed me, saying: ‘Aaron and his sons shall eat them.’
Le esia megbe la, Mose gblɔ na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo be, “Miɖa lã la le Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu, eye miaɖui kple abolo si le ameŋukɔkɔ ƒe kusi la me abe ale si Yehowa de se na mi ene.
32 Then whatever will remain of the flesh and the loaves shall be consumed with fire.
Mitɔ dzo lã la kple aboloawo ƒe mamlɛawo.
33 Also, you shall not exit from the door of the tabernacle for seven days, until the day on which the time of your consecration shall be completed. For in seven days the consecration is finished,
“Minɔ Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu ŋkeke adre, eye le ŋkeke adreawo megbe la, miawu miaƒe ŋutikɔkɔ nu, elabena ŋkeke adree wòaxɔ.
34 even as it has begun at this present time, so that the rite of the sacrifice might be accomplished.
Nu siwo katã wowɔ egbe la, Yehowae de se be woawɔ wo hena miaƒe ŋutikɔkɔ.
35 Day and night you shall remain in the tabernacle, observing the watches of the Lord, otherwise you shall die. For so it has been commanded to me.”
Ele be mianɔ Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu zã kple keli ŋkeke adre, eye miawɔ nu siwo Yehowa de se na mi be miawɔ. Ne miewɔe o la, miaku. Esiawoe nye se siwo Yehowa de nam.”
36 And Aaron and his sons did everything that the Lord spoke by the hand of Moses.
Ale Aron kple via ŋutsuwo wɔ nu siwo katã Yehowa ɖo na Mose.
