< Leviticus 10 >
1 Aaron's sons, Nadab and Abihu, set light to their incense burners using ordinary fire and put in incense, and in this way offered forbidden fire in the Lord's presence, something he had not authorized.
Na Aaron mma Nadab ne Abihu de ogya guu wɔn aduhuamyɛfo ade mu. Wɔde aduhuam no petee ogya no so ma wɔnam saa kwan yi so buu Awurade mmara so, efisɛ wɔde ogya a ɛnyɛ nea Awurade ahyɛ baa nʼanim.
2 Fire came out from the Lord's presence and burned them up. They died in the Lord's presence.
Enti ogya dɛw fii Awurade nkyɛn bɛhyew wɔn.
3 Moses explained to Aaron, “This is what the Lord was talking about when he said: ‘I will show my holiness to those who approach me; I will reveal my glory so everyone can see.” But Aaron didn't reply.
Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron se, Awurade kae se, “‘Mɛda me ho kronkronyɛ adi akyerɛ wɔn a wɔba me nkyɛn; wɔbɛhyɛ me anuonyam wɔ nnipa nyinaa anim no, na nea ɔrekyerɛ nen.’” Na asɛm no tɔɔ Aaron mum.
4 Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, sons of Aaron's uncle Uzziel, and told them, “Come and carry away the bodies of your cousins and take them outside the camp, away from the front of the sanctuary.”
Mose soma ma wɔkɔfrɛɛ Misael ne Elsafan a wɔyɛ Aaron agya nuabarima mma brɛɛ no. Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Monkɔtwe nnipa a wɔahyew no nyinaa mfi Ahyiae Ntamadan no anim mfa wɔn nkɔ nsraban no akyi.”
5 They came and picked them up by their clothes, and took them outside the camp, as Moses had ordered.
Na wɔkɔsoaa wɔn wɔ wɔn ntade mu sɛnea Mose aka akyerɛ wɔn no.
6 Then Moses told Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, “Don't leave your hair uncombed, and don't tear your clothes in mourning, otherwise you will die, and the Lord will be angry with everyone. But your relatives and all the other Israelites may mourn for those the Lord killed by fire.
Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron ne ne mmabarima Eleasar ne Itamar se, “Munnsu. Mommma mo tinwi nsensɛn hɔ yuu mmfa nkyerɛ sɛ moretwa agyaadwo. Munnsunsuane mo ntade mu nso. Sɛ moyɛ saa a, Onyankopɔn bekum mo nso na nʼabufuw bɛba Israelfo nyinaa so. Nanso Israelfo a wɔaka no de, esiane ogya a Awurade de bae no nti, wotumi di Nadab ne Abihu wu no ho awerɛhow, tumi su wɔn nso.
7 Don't go outside the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, or you will die, because you have been anointed by the Lord.” They did what Moses said.
Na mummfi Ahyiae Ntamadan no ano, anyɛ saa a mubewuwu, efisɛ Awurade ngosra wɔ mo so.” Na wodii asɛm a Mose kae no so.
Afei, Awurade hyɛɛ Aaron se,
9 “You and your descendants must not to drink wine or any other alcohol when you go in to the Tent of Meeting, otherwise you will die. This regulation is for all time and for all future generations.
“Sɛ wokɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu a, nnom bobesa anaa nsa a ano yɛ den. Woyɛ saa a, wubewu. Saa mmara yi bɛtena hɔ afebɔɔ ama awo ntoatoaso a ɛbɛba no nyinaa,
10 You must realize the difference between the holy and the ordinary, between clean and unclean,
na ama moatumi ahu nsonoe a ɛda kronkron ne nea ɛyɛ teta, nea ɛho tew ne nea ɛho ntew no tam,
11 so you can teach the Israelites all the regulations that the Lord has given to them through Moses.”
na woatumi akyerɛkyerɛ Israelfo mmara a Awurade nam Mose so de ama mo no nyinaa.”
12 Moses told Aaron and his two sons who were left, Eleazar and Ithamar, “Take the grain offering that is left over from the food offerings given to the Lord and eat it without yeast beside the altar, because it is most holy.
Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron ne ne mmabarima Eleasar ne Itamar se, “Momfa atoko afɔrebɔde nkae wɔ aduan afɔrebɔ a mmɔkaw nni mu a wɔde brɛɛ Awurade no na munni wɔ afɔremuka no ho, efisɛ ɛyɛ kronkron koraa.
13 You must eat it in a holy place, because it is the share for you and your descendants from the food offerings given to the Lord. This is what I have been ordered.
Munni wɔ kronkronbea hɔ. Ɛyɛ wo ne wo mmabarima no dea, na ɛyɛ wo ne wo mmabarima no kyɛfa a efi aduan afɔrebɔ a wɔde brɛɛ Awurade no mu; efisɛ saa na wɔahyɛ sɛ menyɛ.
14 You and your male and female descendants can eat the breast of the wave offering and the thigh contribution anywhere that is ceremonially clean, because you and your descendants have been given these as your share from the peace offerings of the Israelites.
Nanso ne yan ne ne srɛ a muhim no Awurade anim no, mutumi we no beae biara a amanne kwan so no ɛhɔ tew. Ɛyɛ wo, wo mmabarima ne wo mmabea kyɛfa wɔ Israelfo Asomdwoe afɔrebɔde no mu.
15 The thigh contribution and the breast of the wave offering, as well as the fat portions of the food offerings made, they are to bring and wave as a wave offering before the Lord. They belong to you and your children forever as the Lord has ordered.”
Ne srɛ ne ne yan a wohim no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ka srade afɔrebɔde a wɔhyew de ma Awurade no ho. Eyi bɛyɛ wo ne wʼasefo kyɛfa daa, sɛnea Awurade ahyɛ no.”
16 Moses checked what had happened to the goat of the sin offering, and found out that it had been burned. He got angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons Aaron had left, and asked them,
Bere a Mose bisaa nea ayɛ abirekyi a wɔde no bɛbɔ bɔne afɔre no ho asɛm no, ohuu sɛ wɔahyew no. Ɛno nti, ne bo fuw Eleasar ne Itamar a na wɔyɛ Aaron mmabarima no, bisae se,
17 “Why didn't you take the sin offering and eat it in the holy place, because it is most holy and it was given to you to take away the people's guilt by making them right before the Lord.
“Adɛn nti na moanwe bɔne afɔrebɔde no wɔ kronkronbea hɔ? Ɛyɛ afɔrebɔde kronkron! Wɔde maa mo sɛ momfa nyi nnipa no afɔdi na ɛnyɛ mpata mma wɔn wɔ Awurade anim.
18 As its blood was not taken into the holy place, you should have eaten it in the sanctuary area, as I ordered.”
Esiane sɛ wɔamfa ne mogya ankɔ kronkronbea hɔ no nti, anka mubetumi awe wɔ hɔ ara sɛnea mehyɛe no.”
19 So Aaron explained to Moses, “Look, it was today that they presented their sin offering and their burnt offering before the Lord. After all that's just happened to me, would the Lord have been pleased if I'd eaten the sin offering today?”
Aaron buaa Mose se, “Nnɛ wɔbɔɔ wɔn bɔne afɔre ne ɔhyew afɔre maa Awurade. Nanso hwɛ asɛm yi a ato me. Sɛ mewee bɔne afɔre nam yi bi nnɛ a, anka Awurade ani bɛsɔ ana?”
20 When Moses heard what Aaron had to say, he accepted the explanation.
Na Mose tee saa no, ne bo dwoe.
