< Exodus 29 >
1 And this is the thing which thou shalt do to them to hallow them, that they may serve me as priests: take one young bullock, and two rams without blemish,
“Wɔ nu siawo hena Aron kple via ŋutsuwo ŋuti kɔkɔ kple wo ɖoɖo nunɔlawoe. Lé nyitsu fɛ̃ ɖeka kple agbo eve siwo ŋu naneke megblẽ le o,
2 and unleavened bread, and unleavened cakes mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil — of wheaten flour shalt thou make them.
eye nàtsɔ abolo si wowɔ kple amɔ maʋamaʋã, abolo vivi si woblu kple ami kple akpɔnɔ siwo dzi wokɔ ami ɖo. Woatsɔ wɔ memi awɔ aboloawo kple akpɔnɔawo.
3 And thou shalt put them into one basket, and present them in the basket, with the bullock and the two rams.
Tsɔ wo de kusi aɖe me, eye nàtsɔ kusi la, nyi la kple agbo aveawo vɛ.
4 And Aaron and his sons thou shalt bring near the entrance of the tent of meeting, and shalt bathe them with water.
Le tsi na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo le agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
5 And thou shalt take the garments, and clothe Aaron with the vest, and the cloak of the ephod, and the ephod, and the breastplate, and shalt gird him with the girdle of the ephod.
Do Aron ƒe dziwui, kɔmewu ʋlaya, kɔmewu la ŋutɔ kple akɔtatsyɔnu la nɛ, tsɔ alidziblanu si wolɔ̃ aɖaŋutɔe la bla ali dzi nɛ,
6 And thou shalt put the turban upon his head, and fasten the holy diadem to the turban,
eye nàtsɔ tablanu la kple sikaŋgoblanu kɔkɔe la ɖo ta nɛ.
7 and shalt take the anointing oil, and pour [it] on his head, and anoint him.
Tsɔ ami kɔkɔe la, eye nàsi ami ɖe ta nɛ.
8 And thou shalt bring his sons near, and clothe them with the vests.
Yɔ via ŋutsuwo vɛ, eye nàtsɔ woƒe dziwuiwo ado na wo.
9 And thou shalt gird them with the girdle — Aaron and his sons, and bind the high caps on them; and the priesthood shall be theirs for an everlasting statute; and thou shalt consecrate Aaron and his sons.
Bla ta na wo kple woƒe tablanuwo, tsɔ alidziblanu tso gae ɖe woƒe akɔta, ahablae ɖe axame na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo, ale be nunɔladɔ nanye wo tɔ tegbee. Aleae nàɖo Aron kple viawo nunɔlawoe.
10 And thou shalt present the bullock before the tent of meeting; and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands upon the head of the bullock;
“Emegbe la, he nyitsu la va agbadɔ la ŋgɔ, eye nàna Aron kple via ŋutsuwo nada asi ɖe nyitsu la ƒe ta dzi.
11 and thou shalt slaughter the bullock before Jehovah, at the entrance of the tent of meeting;
Wui le Yehowa ŋkume le agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
12 and thou shalt take of the blood of the bullock, and put it on the horns of the altar with thy finger, and shalt pour all the blood at the bottom of the altar.
Tsɔ wò asibidɛ de eƒe ʋu me, sisi ʋu la ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ƒe lãdzowo ŋu, eye nàkɔ ʋu mamlɛa katã ɖe vɔsamlekpui la te.
13 And thou shalt take all the fat that covereth the inwards, and the net of the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and burn them upon the altar.
Emegbe nàɖe ami si le nyitsu la ƒe dɔmenuwo ŋu. Ɖe aklã kple ayiku eveawo kple ami si le wo ŋu, eye nàtɔ dzo wo le vɔsamlekpui la dzi.
14 And the flesh of the bullock, and its skin, and its dung, shalt thou burn with fire outside the camp: it is a sin-offering.
Esia megbe la, nàtɔ dzo lã blibo la kple eƒe ayi kple afɔdzi si le dɔ me nɛ la le asaɖa la godo abe nuvɔ̃ŋutivɔsa ene.
15 And thou shalt take one of the rams, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram;
“Emegbe la, Aron kple via ŋutsuwo nada asi ɖe agboawo dometɔ ɖeka ƒe ta dzi,
16 and thou shalt slaughter the ram, and shalt take its blood, and sprinkle [it] on the altar round about.
eye nàwui. Woaɖe eya hã ƒe ʋu ahlẽ ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu kpe ɖo.
17 And thou shalt cut up the ram into its pieces, and wash its inwards, and its legs, and put [them] upon its pieces, and upon its head;
Fli agbo la, kpala lã la, eƒe dɔmenuwo kple eƒe afɔwo, eye nàtsɔ wo da ɖe eƒe ta kple lãkɔ bubuawo dzi.
18 and thou shalt burn the whole ram upon the altar: it is a burnt-offering to Jehovah — a sweet odour; it is an offering by fire to Jehovah.
Tɔ dzo lã blibo la ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi. Numevɔsae wònye na Yehowa, eye wòdzea eŋu ŋutɔ.
19 And thou shalt take the second ram, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands upon the head of the ram;
“Azɔ la, he agbo evelia vɛ. Na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo nada asi ɖe eya hã ƒe ta dzi.
20 and thou shalt slaughter the ram, and take of its blood, and put [it] on the tip of the [right] ear of Aaron, and on the tip of the right ear of his sons, and on the thumb of their right hand, and on the great toe of their right foot; and thou shalt sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about.
Wui eye nàɖe ʋu la asi ɖe Aron kple via ŋutsuwo ƒe nuɖusitowo, woƒe degblefetsu ɖusitɔwo kple woƒe nuɖusi ƒe afɔbidɛ gãtɔwo ŋu. Hlẽ ʋu mamlɛa ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu kpe ɖo.
21 And thou shalt take of the blood that is upon the altar, and of the anointing oil, and sprinkle [it] on Aaron, and on his garments, and on his sons, and on the garments of his sons with him; and he shall be hallowed, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.
Emegbe la, nàha ʋu la ƒe ɖe le vɔsamlekpui la ŋu, nàtsakae kple amisisi la, eye nàhlẽe ɖe Aron kple via ŋutsuawo ƒe awuwo ŋu. Ekema woawo ŋutɔwo kple woƒe awuwo ŋu akɔ na Yehowa.
22 Also of the ram shalt thou take the fat, and the fat-tail, and the fat that covereth the inwards, and the net of the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and the right shoulder — for it is a ram of consecration —
“Azɔ ɖe agbo la ƒe ami kpe ɖe asike dami la, ami si le eƒe dɔmenuwo ŋu, nàɖe eƒe aklã kple ayiku eveawo kple ami si le wo ŋu kpe ɖe agbo la ƒe ɖusimeta ŋu. (Esiae nye agbo na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo ɖoɖo nunɔlawoe.)
23 and one loaf of bread, and one cake of oiled bread, and one wafer out of the basket of the unleavened [bread] that is before Jehovah;
Tsɔ nu siawo kpe ɖe abolo bɔbɔe ɖeka kple abolo vivi ɖeka kple akpɔnɔ ɖeka ŋu tso kusi si me abolo si wowɔ kple amɔ maʋamaʋã si woda ɖe Yehowa ŋkume la me.
24 and thou shalt put all this in the hands of Aaron, and in the hands of his sons, and shalt wave them as a wave-offering before Jehovah.
Tsɔ nu siawo de asi na Aron kple viawo. Na woanye wo le yame abe vɔsa na Yehowa ƒe dzesi ene.
25 And thou shalt receive them of their hand and burn [them] upon the altar over the burnt-offering, for a sweet odour before Jehovah: it is an offering by fire to Jehovah.
Le esia yome la, xɔ nu siawo le wo si, eye nàtɔ dzo wo ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi abe numeme si ʋẽna lĩlĩlĩ ɖe Yehowa ene.
26 And thou shalt take the breast of the ram of consecration which is for Aaron, and wave it as a wave-offering before Jehovah; and it shall be thy part.
Ɖe agbo si wòwu hena Aron ɖoɖo nunɔlae la ƒe akɔ. Nyee le yame le Yehowa ŋkume abe vɔsa ƒe dzesi ene. Akɔ sia nazu tɔwò.
27 And thou shalt hallow the breast of the wave-offering, and the shoulder of the heave-offering, that hath been waved and heaved up, of the ram of the consecration, of that which is for Aaron, and of [that] which is for his sons.
“Tsɔ agbo si wowu hena Aron kple via ŋutsuwo ŋuti kɔkɔ la ƒe akɔta kple atawo na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo.
28 And they shall be for Aaron and his sons, as an everlasting statute, on the part of the children of Israel; for it is a heave-offering; and it shall be a heave-offering on the part of the children of Israel of the sacrifices of their peace-offerings, [as] their heave-offering to Jehovah.
Ele be Israelviwo nadzɔ woƒe vɔsalãwo ƒe akpa siawo ɣe sia ɣi, nenye ŋutifafavɔsa loo alo akpedavɔsa abe woƒe vɔsa na Yehowa ene.
29 And the holy garments of Aaron shall be his sons' after him, to be anointed therein, and to be consecrated in them.
“Ele be woadzra eƒe awu kɔkɔeawo ɖo hena Via ŋutsu si ava xɔ ɖe eteƒe la ŋuti kɔkɔ ne wole eŋuti kɔm tso dzidzime yi dzidzime.
30 The son that is priest in his stead shall put them on seven days, when he cometh into the tent of meeting to serve in the sanctuary.
Ame sia ame si ava nye nunɔlagã le Aron megbe la ado awu siawo ŋkeke adre hafi ade asi subɔsubɔdɔwo wɔwɔ me le agbadɔ la me kple Kɔkɔeƒe la siaa.
31 And thou shalt take the ram of the consecration, and boil its flesh in a holy place.
“Tsɔ agbo si ŋu dɔ wowɔ le nunɔlawo ɖoɖo me, eye nàɖa eƒe lã le teƒe kɔkɔe aɖe.
32 And Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram, and the bread that is in the basket, at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
Na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo naɖu lã la kple abolo si le kusi la me le agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
33 They shall eat the things with which the atonement was made, to consecrate [and] to hallow them; but a stranger shall not eat [of them], for they are holy.
Ale woaɖu nu si wotsɔ ɖe woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ɖae hafi ɖo wo nunɔlawoe hekɔ wo ŋuti. Ame bubu aɖeke mekpɔ mɔ aɖu wo o, elabena nu kɔkɔewo wonye.
34 And if [any] of the flesh of the consecration, and of the bread, remain until the morning, then thou shalt burn the remainder with fire: it shall not be eaten, for it is holy.
Nenye be agbo si wotsɔ ɖo wo nunɔlawoe la ƒe lã aɖe susɔ alo abolo la ƒe ɖe susɔ ŋu ke ɖe edzi la, tɔ dzoe. Mele be woaɖui o, elabena ele kɔkɔe.
35 And thus shalt thou do to Aaron, and to his sons, according to all that I have commanded thee: seven days shalt thou consecrate them.
“Ale nàɖo Aron kple via ŋutsuwo nunɔlawo le mɔ sia nu. Wo ɖoɖo nanɔ edzi ŋkeke adre.
36 And thou shalt offer every day a bullock as a sin-offering for atonement; and the altar shalt thou cleanse from sin, by making atonement for it, and shalt anoint it, to hallow it.
Ele be nàtsɔ nyitsu ɖeka awɔ nuvɔ̃ŋutivɔsa gbe sia gbe. Emegbe la, nàkɔ vɔsa la ŋu to nu vɔ̃ ɖeɖe ɖa le eŋu me. Kɔ ami ɖe edzi be eŋu nakɔ.
37 Seven days shalt thou make atonement for the altar and hallow it; and the altar shall be most holy: whatever toucheth the altar shall be holy.
Me avulénuwo le vɔsamlekpui la dzi gbe sia gbe ŋkeke adre be nàkɔ vɔsamlekpui la ŋu na Mawu. Le esia megbe la, vɔsamlekpui la azu kɔkɔe, nu sia nu si aka eŋu la hã azu kɔkɔe, eye ame siwo le kɔkɔe la koe aka asi eŋu.”
38 And this is what thou shalt offer upon the altar — two lambs of the first year, day by day continually.
“Tsɔ alẽ eve sa vɔe ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi gbe sia gbe,
39 The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning; and the other lamb thou shalt offer between the two evenings.
ɖeka le ŋdi me, eye evelia le fiẽ me.
40 And with the one lamb a tenth part of wheaten flour mingled with beaten oil, a fourth part of a hin; and a drink-offering, a fourth part of a hin of wine.
Tsɔ wɔ memi kilogram ɖeka, ami lita ɖeka kple wain lita ɖeka kpe ɖe alẽ ɖeka ŋu.
41 And the second lamb shalt thou offer between the two evenings; as the oblation in the morning, and as its drink-offering shalt thou offer with this, for a sweet odour, an offering by fire to Jehovah.
Tsɔ alẽ evelia kple wɔ memi la kple wain sa vɔe le fiẽ me abe ale si nèwɔ le ŋdi me ene, wòanye vɔsa si ʋẽna lĩlĩlĩ na Yehowa.
42 It shall be a continual burnt-offering throughout your generations at the entrance of the tent of meeting before Jehovah, where I will meet with you, to speak there with thee.
“Esiae nye numevɔsa si miawo kple miaƒe dzidzimeviwo miawɔ gbe sia gbe na Yehowa le agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu. Mado go wò le afi ma, eye maƒo nu kpli wò.
43 And there will I meet with the children of Israel; and it shall be hallowed by my glory.
Mado go Israelviwo le afi ma, eye nye ŋutikɔkɔe akɔ agbadɔ la ŋu.
44 And I will hallow the tent of meeting, and the altar; and I will hallow Aaron and his sons, that they may serve me as priests.
Ɛ̃, makɔ agbadɔ la, vɔsamlekpui la, Aron kple via ŋutsuwo, ame siwo nye subɔlawo kple nunɔlawo la ŋu.
45 And I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel, and will be their God.

46 And they shall know that I am Jehovah their God, who have brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, to dwell in their midst: I am Jehovah their God.
