Leviticus 16

1 Fvrthermore the Lord spake vnto Moses, after the death of the two sonnes of Aaron, whe they came to offer before the Lord, and dyed:

Yehowa ƒo nu na Mose le Aron ƒe viŋutsu eveawo ƒe ku megbe esime wote ɖe Yehowa ŋu.

2 And the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Speake vnto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at all times into the Holy place within the vayle, before the Merciseate, which is vpon the Arke, that he dye not: for I wil appeare in the cloude vpon the Merciseate.

Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Gblɔ na nɔviwò, Aron be megayi Kɔkɔeƒe la le xɔmetsovɔ la megbe le nutsyɔnu si le nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ ɣe sia ɣi si dze eŋu o, ne menye nenema o la, aku, elabena medzena le lilikpo me le nutsyɔnu la tame.

3 After this sort shall Aaron come into the Holy place: euen with a yong bullocke for a sinne offring, and a ramme for a burnt offring.

“Aron age ɖe Kɔkɔeƒe la me ale: atsɔ nyitsuvi ɖe asi hena nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa kple agbo hena numevɔsa.

4 He shall put on the holy linnen coate, and shall haue linnen breeches vpon his flesh, and shall be girded with a linnen girdle, and shall couer his head with a linnen miter: these are the holy garments: therefore shall hee wash his flesh in water, when he doeth put them on.

Ado kɔmewu kɔkɔe la, eye wòado aklalawutewuiawo ɖe ete. Emegbe la, atsɔ aklalalidziblanu la abla ɖe eɖokui ŋu, eye wòatsɔ aklalatablanu la abla tae. Nu siawo nye awu kɔkɔewo, eya ta ele nɛ be wòale tsi hafi ado wo.

5 And hee shall take of the Congregation of the children of Israel, two hee goates for a sinne offring, and a ramme for a burnt offring.

Israelviwo ana gbɔ̃tsu eve hena woƒe nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa kple agbo ɖeka hena woƒe numevɔsa.

6 Then Aaron shall offer the bullocke for his sinne offring, and make an atonement for himselfe, and for his house.

“Gbã la, ele be wòatsɔ nyitsuvi fɛ̃ la asa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa na Yehowa ɖe eɖokui ta, eye wòalé avu ɖe eya ŋutɔ kple eƒe ƒomea ta.

7 And he shall take the two hee goates, and present them before the Lord at the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.

Emegbe la, akplɔ gbɔ̃tsu eveawo ava Yehowa ŋkume le Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu,

8 Then Aaron shall cast lots ouer the two hee goates: one lot for the Lord, and the other for the Scape goate.

eye wòadzidze nu, anya gbɔ̃tsu si nye Yehowa tɔ kple esi nye Azazel tɔ, si ŋu wòaɖe asi le.

9 And Aaron shall offer the goat, vpon which the Lords lot shall fal, and make him a sinne offring.

Aron asa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa kple gbɔ̃tsu si nye Yehowa tɔ.

10 But the goate, on which the lot shall fall to be the Scape goate, shalbe presented aliue before the Lord, to make reconciliation by him, and to let him go (as a Scape goate) into the wildernes.

Woatsɔ gbɔ̃tsu evelia si nye Azazel tɔ la agbagbe ava Yehowa ŋkume. Woaɖe dukɔwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ada ɖe edzi, eye woanyae ɖo ɖe Azazel gbɔ le gbedzi.

11 Thus Aaron shall offer the bullocke for his sinne offring, and make a reconciliation for himselfe, and for his house, and shall kill the bullocke for his sinne offring.

“Ne Aron tsɔ nyitsu la sa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa ɖe eya ŋutɔ kple eƒe ƒometɔwo ta vɔ la,

12 And he shall take a censer full of burning coles from off the altar before the Lord, and his handfull of sweete incense beaten small, and bring it within the vayle,

atsɔ dzoɖesonu, aɖe aka xɔxɔwo tso Yehowa ƒe vɔsamlekpui dzi ade eme, eye wòalɔ dzudzɔdonu si wotu memie la ƒe asiʋlo eve ayi xɔmetsovɔ la godo.

13 And shall put the incense vpon the fire before the Lord, that the cloude of the incense may couer the Merciseat that is vpon the Testimonie: so he shall not dye.

Atsɔ dzudzɔdonu la akɔ ɖe dzoka xɔxɔawo dzi le afi ma, le Yehowa ŋkume, ale be dzudzɔdonu la ƒe dzudzɔ naxɔ amenuvevezikpui la dzi le nubablaɖaka la tame, ale be magakpɔ nubablaɖaka la tame ne wòaku o.

14 And hee shall take of the blood of the bullocke, and sprinkle it with his finger vpon the Merciseat Eastward: and before the Merciseate shall he sprinkle of the blood with his finger seuen times.

Atsɔ nyitsu la ƒe ʋu ƒe ɖe ade asibidɛ eme, eye wòahlẽ ʋu la ɖe amenuvevezikpui la ƒe ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo, eye wòagahlẽe zi adre ɖe eŋgɔ.

15 Then shall he kill the goate that is the peoples sinne offring, and bring his blood within the vaile, and doe with that blood, as he did with the blood of the bullocke, and sprinckle it vpon the Merciseate, and before the Merciseate.

“Ekema ado go, eye wòasa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa kple ameawo ƒe gbɔ̃tsu la, eye wòahlẽ eƒe ʋu ɖe xɔmetsovɔ la me, ahlẽe ɖe amenuvevezikpui la dzi kple eŋgɔ abe ale si wòwɔ kple nyitsu la ƒe ʋu ene.

16 So he shall purge the Holy place from the vncleannes of the children of Israel, and from their trespasses of all their sinnes: so shall he do also for the Tabernacle of the Cogregation placed with them, in the middes of their vncleannesse.

Ekema aɖe nu vɔ̃ ɖa le teƒe kɔkɔe la ŋu, elabena Israelviwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo na wòzu nu makɔmakɔ, eye wòagaɖe nu vɔ̃ ɖa le Agbadɔ si le ameawo dome, eye woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ƒo xlãe la hã ŋu.

17 And there shalbe no man in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, when he goeth in to make an atonement in the Holy place, vntill hee come out, and haue made an atonement for himselfe, and for his housholde, and for all the Congregation of Israel.

Ame bubu aɖeke mekpɔ mɔ anɔ Agbadɔ la me ne Aron ge ɖe eme be yeaɖe nu vɔ̃ ɖa le Teƒe Kɔkɔe la ŋu o va se ɖe esime wòalé avu le eya ŋutɔ ɖokui, eƒe aƒemetɔwo kple Israelviwo katã ta, eye wòagado go.

18 After, he shall goe out vnto the altar that is before the Lord and make a reconciliation vpon it, and shall take of the blood of the bullocke, and of the blood of the goate, and put it vpon the hornes of the Altar round about:

“Azɔ la, ado go ayi vɔsamlekpui la gbɔ le Yehowa ŋkume, eye wòaɖe nu vɔ̃ ɖa le eŋu. Ele be wòasisi nyitsu la kple gbɔ̃tsu la ƒe ʋu ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ƒe lãdzowo ŋu,

19 So shall hee sprinkle of the blood vpon it with his finger seuen times, and clense it, and halowe it from the vncleannes of the children of Israel.

eye wòahlẽ ʋu la ƒe ɖe ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi zi adre kple eƒe asibidɛ. Ale wòakɔ eŋuti tso Israelviwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo me, eye wòawɔe kɔkɔe.

20 When he hath made an ende of purging the Holy place, and the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and the altar, then he shall bring the liue goate:

“Ne ewu nu vɔ̃wo ɖeɖe ɖa le Teƒe Kɔkɔe la, Agbadɔ blibo la kple vɔsamlekpui la ŋu ƒe wɔnawo nu la, ahe gbɔ̃ gbagbe si wotia na Azazel la vɛ.

21 And Aaron shall put both his handes vpon the head of the liue goate, and confesse ouer him al the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their trespasses, in all their sinnes, putting them vpon the head of the goate, and shall sende him away (by the hand of a man appointed) into the wildernes.

Ada eƒe asi eveawo ɖe gbɔ̃tsu la ƒe ta dzi, eye wòaʋu Israelviwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã me ɖe edzi. Adro woƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã ɖe gbɔ̃ la ƒe ta dzi, eye wòana ame aɖe si wotia da ɖi la nakplɔ gbɔ̃ la ayi ɖe gbedzi.

22 So the goate shall beare vpon him all their iniquities into the land that is not inhabited, and he shall let the goate go into the wildernesse.

Ale gbɔ̃ la atsɔ ameawo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã ayi gbedadaƒo, eye ame la aɖe asi le gbɔ̃ la ŋu ɖe gbedadaƒo afi ma.

23 After, Aaron shall come into the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and put off the linnen clothes, which he put on when he went into the Holy place, and leaue them there.

“Azɔ la, Aron agayi Agbadɔ la me, eye wòaɖe aklalawu siwo wòdo esi wòyi xɔmetsovɔ la godo, eye wòagblẽ wo ɖe afi ma le Agbadɔ la me.

24 Hee shall wash also his flesh with water in the Holy place, and put on his owne rayment, and come out, and make his burnt offring, and the burnt offring of the people, and make an atonement for himselfe, and for the people.

Esia megbe la, ale tsi le teƒe kɔkɔe aɖe, agado awuawo, ayi aɖasa eya ŋutɔ ƒe numevɔ kple ameawo ƒe numevɔ, eye wòalé avu ɖe eya ŋutɔ kple ameawo ta.

25 Also the fatte of the sinne offring shall he burne vpon the altar.

Ekema atɔ dzo nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsalãwo ƒe ami ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi.

26 And he that caried forth the goat, called the Scape goat, shall wash his clothes, and wash his flesh in water, and after that shall come into the hoste.

“Ame si kplɔ gbɔ̃tsu la yi na Azazel le gbedzi la, agbɔ ava nya eƒe awuwo, ale tsi, eye wòayi asaɖa la me.

27 Also the bullocke for the sinne offring, and the goate for the sinne offring (whose blood was brought to make a reconciliation in the Holy place) shall one carie out without the hoste to be burnt in the fire, with their skinnes, and with their flesh, and with their doung.

Woatsɔ nyitsu kple gbɔ̃tsu si Aron tsɔ sa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa, eye wòtsɔ woƒe ʋu yi Teƒe Kɔkɔe la hena avuléle la ayi asaɖa la godo, eye woatɔ dzo wo kpe ɖe woƒe agbalẽ kple dɔmenuwo ŋu.

28 And hee that burneth them shall wash his clothes, and wash his flesh in water, and afterward come into the hoste.

Emegbe la, ame si tɔ dzo lãawo la, anya eƒe awuwo, ale tsi, eye wòatrɔ ayi asaɖa la me.

29 So this shalbe an ordinance for euer vnto you: the tenth day of the seuenth moneth, yee shall humble your soules, and do no worke at all, whether it be one of the same countrey or a strager that soiourneth among you.

“Esia nanye ɖoɖo mavɔ na mi: le ɣleti adrelia ƒe ŋkeke ewolia dzi la, ele be miagbe nu le mia ɖokuiwo gbɔ, eye miawɔ dɔ aɖeke o, eɖanye dzɔleaƒea loo alo amedzro si le mia dome o,

30 For that day shall ye Priest make an atonement for you to clense you: ye shalbe cleane from all your sinnes before the Lord.

elabena le ŋkeke sia dzi woalé avu na mi, akɔ mia ŋuti. Ekema le Yehowa ŋkume la, mia ŋuti akɔ tso miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã me.

31 This shall be a Sabbath of rest vnto you, and ye shall humble your soules, by an ordinance for euer.

Enye dzudzɔgbe na mi, miawɔ ŋkeke la ŋu dɔ na nutsitsidɔ. Esia nye se mavɔ na mi.

32 And the Priest whom he shall anoynt, and whom he shall cosecrate (to minister in his fathers steade) shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linnen clothes and Holy vestments,

Le dzidzime bubuwo ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo me la, nunɔlagã si wosi ami na, eye wokɔ eŋuti ɖe Tɔgbuia Aron teƒe lae awɔ ŋutikɔkɔ kɔnu sia. Eyae nye ame si ado aklalawu kɔkɔeawo,

33 And shall purge the Holy Sanctuarie and the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and shall clense the altar, and make an atonement for the Priests and for all the people of the Congregation.

eye wòakɔ Teƒe Kɔkɔe la, Agbadɔ la, vɔsamlekpui la, nunɔlawo kple ameawo ŋu.

34 And this shalbe an euerlasting ordinance vnto you, to make an atonement for the children of Israel for all their sinnes once a yeere: and as the Lord commanded Moses, he did.

“Esia anye se mavɔ na mi; woalé avu ɖe Israelviwo ta ƒe sia ƒe le woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta.” Eye wowɔ abe ale si Yehowa de se na Mose ene. Eye miawɔ abe ale si Yehowa de se na Mose ene.
