Leviticus 14
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
2 This is the rite of a leper, when he is to be cleansed: he shall be brought to the priest:
“Da a wobedwira ɔkwatani ho no, ɛho mmara ni: Wɔde no bɛkɔ akɔma ɔsɔfo,
3 Who going out of the camp when he shall And that the leprosy is cleansed,
na ɔsɔfo no ahwɛ no wɔ nsraban no akyi. Na sɛ ɔsɔfo no hu sɛ kwata no agyae a,
4 Shall command him that is to be purified, to offer for himself two living sparrows, which it is lawful to eat, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop.
obebisa nnomaa abien bi a wɔwe, na afei wɔde sida dua, koogyan hama ne adwerɛ mman a wɔde bɛyɛ ahodwira ahyɛde ama ɔkwatani no abrɛ no.
5 And he shall command one of the sparrows to be immolated in an earthen vessel over living waters:
Ɔsɔfo no bɛka ama wɔakum nnomaa no mu baako wɔ asanka a nsu wɔ mu so.
6 But the other that is alive he shall dip, with the cedar wood, and the scarlet and the hyssop, in the blood of the sparrow that is immolated:
Na anomaa a wonnya nkum no no nso, wɔde ɔno ne sida dua no ne koogyan hama no ne adwerɛ mman no bɛhyɛ anomaa a wokum no no mogya no mu.
7 Wherewith he shall sprinkle him that is to be cleansed seven times, that he may be rightly purified: and he shall let go the living sparrow, that it may fly into the field.
Na ɔsɔfo no apete mogya no agu ɔkwatani a ne ho afi no so mpɛn ason, na wapae mu aka se ne ho atew na wagyaa anomaa a wonkum no no.
8 And when the man hath washed his clothes, he shall shave all the hair of his body, and shall be washed with water: and being purified, he shall enter into the camp, yet so that he tarry without his own tent seven days:
“Na ɔyarefo a ne ho atɔ no no bɛhoro ne ntama nyinaa. Obeyi ne ho nwi nyinaa nso. Obeguare na wasan abɛtena faako a kan no na ɔte hɔ no bio; nanso ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtena ne ntamadan akyi nnanson.
9 And on the seventh day he shall shave the hair of his head, and his beard and his eyebrows, and the hair of all his body. And having washed again his clothes, and his body,
Nnanson no so no, obeyi ne ho nwi nyinaa bio, obeyi nʼabogyesɛ ayi nʼanintɔn nwi na wayi ne ho nwi a aka nyinaa, na waguare, na afei wɔapae mu aka sɛ ne ho atew.
10 On the eighth day he shall take two lambs without blemish, and an ewe of a year old without blemish, and three tenths of flour tempered with oil for a sacrifice, and a sextary of oil apart.
“Da a edi so a ɛyɛ nnaawɔtwe so no, ɔbɛfa adwennini abien a wɔn ho nni dɛm ne oguamma bere baako a ɔno nso ho nni dɛm, asikresiam muhumuhu lita asia ne fa a wɔde ngo afra ne ngo a wɔmfa mfraa hwee lita fa.
11 And when the priest that purifieth the man, hath presented him, and all these things before the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony,
Afei ɔsɔfo a ɔbɛhwehwɛ ɔyarefo no ho ahwɛ sɛ ne ho atɔ no no de onipa no ne nʼafɔrebɔde bɛba Awurade anim wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no ano.
12 He shall take a. lamb, and offer it for a trespass offering with the sextary of oil: and having offered all before the Lord,
“Ɔsɔfo no bɛfa nguantenmma no baako ne ngotoa baako no na ɔde ama Awurade sɛ afɔdi afɔrebɔ a wohim no wɔ afɔremuka no anim.
13 He shall immolate the lamb, where the victim for sin is wont to be immolated, and the holocaust, that is, in the holy place: for as that which is for sin, so also the victim for a trespass offering pertaineth to the priest: it is holy of holies.
Afei, wobekum oguamma no wɔ beae a wɔbɔ bɔne ne ɔhyew afɔre no wɔ kronkronbea hɔ. Wɔde saa afɔdi afɔrebɔde yi bɛma ɔsɔfo no sɛnea wɔyɛ no bɔne afɔrebɔ mu no ara pɛ. Ɛyɛ afɔrebɔ a ɛyɛ kronkron ankasa.
14 And the priest taking of the blood of the victim that was immolated for trespass, shall put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand and the great toe of his right foot:
Ɔsɔfo no bɛfa saa afɔdi afɔrebɔde mogya na ɔde akeka ɔyarefo a wɔretew ne ho no aso nifa ase ne ne nsa nifa kokurobeti ne ne nan nifa kokurobeti.
15 And he shall pour of the sextary of oil into his own left. hand,
Afei, ɔsɔfo no bɛfa ngo no bi ahwie agu ne nsa benkum mu
16 And shall dip his right finger in it, and sprinkle it before the Lord seven times.
na ɔde ne nsa nifa abɔ mu, na watu apete mpɛn ason wɔ Awurade anim.
17 And the rest of the oil in his left band, he shall pour upon the tip of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand and the great toe of his right foot, and upon the blood that was shed for trespass,
Ngo no a ɛbɛka ne nsa benkum mu no, ɔsɔfo no de bɛka onipa no aso nifa ase ne ne nsa nifa kokurobeti ne ne nan nifa kokurobeti sɛnea ɔde afɔdi mogya yɛe wɔ afɔdi afɔrebɔ no mu no ara pɛ.
18 And upon his head.
Ɔde ngo no nkae a ɛwɔ ne nsam no bɛfɔw ɔbarima no ti ho. Eyi bɛkyerɛ sɛ, ɔsɔfo no de ne ho ayɛ mpata ama onipa no wɔ Awurade anim.
19 And he shall pray for him before the Lord, and shall offer the sacrifice for sin: then shall he immolate the holocaust,
“Afei, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no bɔ bɔne afɔre na ɔsan yɛ mpata ho ade ma onipa a wɔrehohoro ne ho afi ne kwata mu no ho; ɛno akyi no, ɔsɔfo no bekum ɔhyew afɔrebɔde no
20 And put it on the altar with the libations thereof, and the man shall be rightly cleansed.
na ɔde abɔ ɛne atoko afɔre wɔ afɔremuka no so de ayɛ mpata ama ɔbarima no na afei, wapae mu aka sɛ ne ho afi no.
21 But if he be poor, and his hand cannot find the things aforesaid: he shall take a lamb for an offering for trespass, that the priest may pray for him, and a tenth part of hour tempered with oil for a sacrifice, and a sextary of oil,
“Sɛ ɔyɛ ohiani a ɔrentumi ntɔ nguamma abien no a, ɛno de, ɔde oguamma nini baako bɛbɔ afɔdi afɔre no de ama Awurade sɛ mpata a wohim wɔ afɔremuka no anim; na wɔde asikresiam fitaa muhumuhu lita abien ne fa a wɔde ngo afra de abɔ atoko afɔre no a ngo tumpan ka ho.
22 And two turtles or two young pigeons, of which one may be for sin, and the other for a holocaust:
Ɛno akyi no, ɔde mmorɔnoma abien anaa nturukuku mma abien mu biara a obenya no mu baako bɛbɔ bɔne afɔre na ɔde baako a ɛbɛka no nso abɔ ɔhyew afɔre.
23 And he shall offer them on the eighth day of his purification to the priest, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony before the Lord.
“Da a ɛto so awotwe no, ɔde ne nyinaa bɛkɔ akɔma ɔsɔfo no wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no ano na ɔsɔfo no de adwira no wɔ Awurade anim.
24 And the priest receiving the lamb for trespass, and the sextary of oil, shall elevate them together.
Ɔsɔfo no bɛfa oguamma no de abɔ afɔdi afɔre. Ɔde ngo tumpan ma bɛka ho na wahim wɔ afɔremuka no anim de akyerɛ sɛ, wɔde rema Awurade.
25 And the lamb being immolated, he shall put of the blood thereof upon the tip of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and the great toe of his right foot:
Afei, wobekum oguamma no de no abɔ afɔdi afɔre na ɔde ne mogya no bi akeka ɔbarima a wɔredwira no no aso nifa ase. Ɔde mogya no bi bɛka ne nsa nifa kokurobeti ne ne nan nifa kokurobeti.
26 But he shall pour part of the oil into his own left hand,
Ɔsɔfo no behwie ngo agu ɔno ara ne nsa benkum mu
27 And dipping the finger of his right hand in it, he shall sprinkle it seven times before the Lord:
na ɔde ne nsateaa nifa abɔ mu apete bi mpɛn ason wɔ Awurade anim.
28 And he shall touch the tip of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and the thumb of his right hand and the great toe of his right foot, in the place of the blood that was shed for trespass.
Na ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ngo a ɛwɔ ne nsam no bi ka ɔbarima no aso nifa ase ne ne nsa nifa kokurobeti ne ne nan nifa kokurobeti sɛnea ɔyɛɛ mogya no, bere a ɔrebɔ afɔdi afɔre no.
29 And the other part of the oil that is in his left hand, he shall pour upon the head of the purified person, that he may appease the Lord for him.
Ngo no a ɛbɛka wɔ ne nsam no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde fɔw ɔbarima a wɔredwira no no ti ho de yɛ mpata wɔ Awurade anim.
30 And he shall offer a turtle, or young pigeon,
Afei, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde nturukuku abien anaa mmorɔnoma abien no mu biara a otumi tɔe no ba.
31 One for trespass, and the other for a holocaust, with their libations.
Wɔde abien a onyae no mu baako bɛbɔ bɔne afɔre na baako a aka no, ɔde abɔ ɔhyew afɔre a saa bere no ara mu wɔbɛbɔ atoko afɔre nso, na ɔsɔfo no bɛyɛ mpata ama ɔbarima no wɔ Awurade anim.”
32 This is the sacrifice of a leper, that is not able to have all things that appertain to his cleansing.
Eyinom ne mmara a ɛfa wɔn a wɔtew wɔn ho ma wɔn ho fi kwata mu nanso wontumi mfa afɔrebɔde a ɛho hia no nyinaa mma no.
33 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron se,
34 When you shall be come into the land of Chanaan, which I will give you for a possession, if there be the plague of leprosy in a house,
“Sɛ mudu Kanaan asase a mede ama mo no so, na sɛ mede kwata kɔ afi bi mu a,
35 He whose house it is, shall go and tell the priest, saying: It seemeth to me, that there is the plague of leprosy in my house,
ɛno de, ofiwura no nyi ne ho adi nkyerɛ ɔsɔfo no na ɔnka se, ‘Ɛyɛ me sɛ kwata wɔ me fi ha!’
36 And he shall command, that they carry forth all things out of the house, before he go into it, and see whether it have the leprosy, lest all things become unclean that are in the house. And afterwards he shall go in to view the leprosy of the house.
Ɔsɔfo no bɛhyɛ ama wɔatu ofie hɔ nneɛma nyinaa ansa na wahwɛ hɔ sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, sɛ ɔka se kwata wɔ fie hɔ a, ɛrengu biribi foforo ho fi wɔ hɔ.
37 And if he see in the walls thereof as it were little dints, disfigured with paleness or redness, and lower than all the rest,
Sɛ ohu nsensansensan ahabammono anaa kɔkɔɔ wɔ ofie no afasu ho a anonom kɔ afasu no mu a,
38 He shall go out of the door of the house, and forthwith shut it up seven days,
ɔbɛto ofi no mu nnanson
39 And returning on the seventh day, he shall look upon it. If he find that the leprosy is spread,
na ne nnanson so no, wasan aba bio abɛhwɛ. Na sɛ nsensansensan awurawura afasu no mu a,
40 He shall command, that the stones wherein the leprosy is, be taken out, and cast without the city into an unclean place:
ɛno de, ɔsɔfo no bɛhyɛ ama wɔawerɛwerɛw nsisii no afi hɔ na wɔatow nwerɛwerɛwee no agu baabi a ɛhɔ ntew wɔ kurow no akyi baabi.
41 And that the house be scraped on the inside round about, and the dust of the scraping be scattered without the city into an unclean place:
Afei, ɔbɛhyɛ ama afasu a ɛwɔ ofi no mu no, wɔawerɛwerɛw no yiye na wɔatow nwerɛwerɛwee no agu baabi a ɛhɔ ntew wɔ kurow no akyi baabi.
42 And that other stones be laid in the place of them that were taken away, and the house be plastered with other mortar.
Na wɔde abo foforo bi abɛhyɛ nea wɔwerɛwerɛw no anan na wɔde dɔte foforo asra ofi no ho.
43 But if, after the stones be taken out, and the dust scraped off, and it be plastered with other earth,
“Na sɛ nsisii no ba bio a,
44 The priest going in perceive that the leprosy is returned, and the walls full of spots, it is a lasting leprosy, and the house is unclean:
ɔsɔfo no bɛba bio abɛhwɛ na sɛ ohu sɛ nsisii no atrɛtrɛw a, na ɛyɛ kwata na ɛkyerɛ sɛ ofi no ho ntew.
45 And they shall destroy it forthwith, and shall cast the stones and timber thereof, and all the dust without the town into an unclean place.
Sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔbɛhyɛ ama wɔabubu ofi no agu. Wɔbɛtwe mmubui no mu abo, nnua ne dɔte no nyinaa afi kurow no mu de akogu kurow no akyi baabi a ɛhɔ ntew.
46 He that entereth into the house when it is shut, shall be unclean until evening,
“Obiara a obewura ofi a wɔato mu no mu no ho ntew kosi anwummere.
47 And he that sleepeth in it, and eateth any thing, shall wash his clothes.
Na obiara a ɔbɛda hɔ anaa obedidi wɔ fie hɔ no bɛhoro ne nneɛma nyinaa.
48 But if the priest going in perceive that the leprosy is not spread in the house, after it was plastered again, he shall purify it, it being cured,
“Na sɛ wɔsra ofi no ho bio na ɔsɔfo no bɛhwɛ na nsisii no mmaa bio a, ɔbɛpae mu aka se wɔatew ofi no ho na kwata no nso kɔ.
49 And for the purification thereof he shall take two sparrows, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:
Obedi ofi no ahodwira ho dwuma. Ɔde nnomaa abien, sida dua, asaawa kɔkɔɔ ne adwerɛ mman na ebedi saa dwuma no.
50 And having immolated one sparrow In an earthen vessel over living waters,
Obekum nnomaa no baako wɔ nsu pa a ɛwɔ asanka mu so,
51 He shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living sparrow, and shall dip all in the blood of the sparrow that is immolated, and in the living water, and he shall sprinkle the house seven times:
na ɔde sida dua no ne adwerɛ mman ne hama kɔkɔɔ ne anomaa a wonkum no no anu anomaa a wɔakum no nsu pa no so no mogya mu na wɔde apete ofi no mpɛn ason.
52 And shall purify it as well with the blood of the sparrow, as with the living water, and with the living sparrow, and with the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet.
Wɔyɛ eyi de tew ofi no ho.
53 And when he hath let go the sparrow to fly freely away into the field, he shall pray for the house, and it shall be rightly cleansed.
Afei, obegyaa anomaa a onwui no ama watu akɔ kurow no akyi baabi. Eyi ne ɔkwan a wɔfa so de yɛ mpata de ma ofi san de dwira ho no.”
54 This is the law of every kind of leprosy and stroke.
Eyinom ne mmara a ɛfa mmeaemmeae a kwata ba hɔ no ho.
55 Of the leprosy of garments and houses,
Sɛ ɛyɛ atade mu anaa ofi mu,
56 Of a scar and of blisters breaking out, of a shining spot, and when the colours are diversely changed:
anaa ɔhonam ani ahonhon, anaa ɔhyehyew mu mpumpunnya anaa ɔhonam ani baabi a ɛhɔ ayɛ hyerɛnn.
57 That it may be known when a thing is clean or unclean.
Saa ɔkwan yi so na wɔbɛfa ahu sɛ ɛyɛ kwata anaa ɛnyɛ kwata. Eyi nti na wɔhyɛɛ saa mmara yi.
