Leviticus 23

1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,

2 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, The feastes of ye Lord which yee shall call ye holie assemblies, euen these are my feasts.

“Ma Israelfoɔ nte sɛ, ‘Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔdi Awurade afahyɛ ahodoɔ no mmerɛ a Israelfoɔ nyinaa bɛhyia asom me no.

3 Six daies shall worke be done, but in the seuenth day shalbe the Sabbath of rest, an holie conuocation: ye shall do no worke therein, it is the Sabbath of the Lord, in all your dwellings.

“‘Mowɔ nna nsia a mode yɛ adwuma, na ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no yɛ Homeda a mode home, ɛda a moyɛ nhyiamu kronkron. Ɛnsɛ sɛ moyɛ adwuma biara wɔ baabi a moteɛ. Ɛyɛ Homeda ma Awurade.

4 These are the feastes of the Lord, and holie conuocations, which yee shall proclaime in their seasons.

“‘Yeinom ne Awurade apontoɔ, nhyiamu kronkron a ɛsɛ sɛ mobɔ ho dawuro wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔahyɛ:

5 In the first moneth, and in the fourteenth day of the moneth at euening shalbe ye Passeouer of the Lord.

Wɔfiri Awurade Twam Afahyɛ no ase wɔ ɔbosome a ɛdi ɛkan no ɛda ɛtɔ so dunan no anwummerɛ.

6 And on the fifteenth day of this moneth shalbe the feast of vnleauened bread vnto the Lord: seuen dayes ye shall eate vnleauened bread.

Awurade Apiti Afahyɛ nso, wɔfiri aseɛ saa ɔbosome no ɛda a ɛtɔ so dunum; na mobɛdi apiti nnanson.

7 In the first day yee shall haue an holy conuocation: ye shall do no seruile worke therein.

Ɛda a ɛdi saa afahyɛ yi ɛkan no, mobɛyɛ nhyiamu kronkron, na monnyɛ adwuma biara.

8 Also ye shall offer sacrifice made by fire vnto the Lord seuen daies, and in the seuenth day shalbe an holie conuocation: ye shall do no seruile worke therein.

Nnanson no mu no, mommɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ mma Awurade ɛda biara. Na ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no, mobɛyɛ nhyiamu kronkron a obiara renyɛ adwuma.’”

9 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,

10 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, When ye be come into ye land which I giue vnto you, and reape the haruest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheafe of the first fruites of your haruest vnto the Priest,

“Kasa kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, ‘Sɛ moduru asase a mede bɛma mo no so na motwa mo nnɔbaeɛ a, momfa nnɔbaeɛ afiafi no mu baako nkɔma ɔsɔfoɔ.

11 And hee shall shake the sheafe before the Lord, that it may be acceptable for you: the morowe after the Sabbath, the Priest shall shake it.

Ɔbɛhim no wɔ Awurade anim de akyerɛ sɛ ɔde rema no na Awurade bɛgye sɛ mo akyɛdeɛ.

12 And that day when yee shake the sheafe, shall yee prepare a lambe without blemish of a yeere olde, for a burnt offring vnto the Lord:

Ɛda no ara, mode odwennini a wadi afe a ɔnnii dɛm bɛbɔ Awurade ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ,

13 And the meate offring thereof shalbe two tenth deales of fine floure mingled with oyle, for a sacrifice made by fire vnto ye Lord of sweete sauour. and the drinke offring thereof the fourth part of an Hin of wine.

ne nʼaduane afɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛyɛ esiam kilogram mmiɛnsa a wɔde ngo afra. Ɛbɛyɛ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ a ɛyi hwa dɛɛdɛ ma Awurade. Wɔde nsã lita ɛnan ne fa afɔrebɔdeɛ bɛka ho.

14 And ye shall eat neither bread nor parched corne, nor greene eares vntill the selfe same day that ye haue brought an offring vnto your God: this shalbe a lawe for euer in your generations and in all your dwellings.

Ɛnsɛ sɛ modi burodo biara, sɛ ɛyɛ aduane a wɔato anaa ɛyɛ foforɔ, kɔsi ɛda a mode saa afɔrebɔdeɛ yi bɛbrɛ mo Onyankopɔn. Yei bɛyɛ ahyɛdeɛ a ɛbɛtena hɔ daa ama awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ a ɛbɛba no wɔ baabiara a mobɛtena.

15 Ye shall count also to you from the morowe after the Sabbath, euen from the day that yee shall bring the sheafe of the shake offring, seuen Sabbaths, they shalbe complete.

“‘Homeda no akyi ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan a wɔmaa atokoɔ afiafi mu baako so him no Awurade anim sɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ no, mobɛfiti aseɛ abubu nnawɔtwe nson.

16 Vnto ye morow after the seuenth Sabbath shall ye nomber fiftie dayes: then yee shall bring a newe meate offring vnto the Lord.

Monkan adaduonum a ɛkɔsi homeda a ɛtɔ so nson no akyi ɛda koro na momfa atokoɔ foforɔ mmɛbɔ afɔdeɛ mma Awurade.

17 Ye shall bring out of your habitations bread for the shake offring: they shalbe two loaues of two tenth deales of fine floure, which shalbe baken with leauen for first fruites vnto the Lord.

Yei bɛyɛ burodo mmienu a mode bɛfiri mo afie mu bɛba. Na wɔbɛhim no wɔ Awurade anim sɛ afɔrebɔ no. Momfa asikyiresiam lita ɛnan a wɔde mmɔreka afra nto saa burodo yi. Ɛyɛ mo aduane a ɛdi ɛkan afɔrebɔdeɛ a mode rema Awurade.

18 Also yee shall offer with the bread seuen lambes without blemish of one yeere olde, and a yong bullocke and two rams: they shalbe for a burnt offring vnto the Lord, with their meate offrings and their drinke offrings, for a sacrifice made by fire of a sweete sauour vnto the Lord.

Mode burodo ne nsã bɛka nnwan mma nson a wɔadi afe a ɛdɛm biara nni wɔn ho ne nantwie ba baako ne nnwennini mmienu ho abɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ama Awurade. Yeinom nyinaa yɛ ogya afɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛsɔ Awurade ani yie.

19 Then ye shall prepare an hee goate for a sinne offring, and two lambes of one yeere olde for peace offrings.

Mode ɔpapo baako bɛbɔ bɔne afɔdeɛ. Na mode nnwammaa mmienu a wɔn mu biara adi afe no abɔ asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ.

20 And the Priest shall shake them to and from with the bread of the first fruits before the Lord, and with the two lambes: they shalbe holy to the Lord, for the Priest.

Asɔfoɔ no bɛhim saa afɔrebɔdeɛ yi ne burodo mmienu a ɛsi mo mfudeɛ a ɛdi akyire no ananmu no wɔ Awurade anim. Ɛyɛ kronkron ma Awurade na wɔde bɛma asɔfoɔ no sɛ wɔn aduane.

21 So ye shall proclayme the same day, that it may be an holie conuocation vnto you: ye shall doe no seruile worke therein: it shalbe an ordinance for euer in al your dwellinges, throughout your generations.

Ɛda no, ɛsɛ sɛ mobɔ nhyiamu kronkron ho dawuro, na monnyɛ adwuma biara. Yei bɛyɛ ahyɛdeɛ a ɛbɛtena hɔ daa ama awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ a ɛbɛba no wɔ baabiara a mobɛtena.

22 And when you reape the haruest of your land, thou shalt not rid cleane the corners of thy field when thou reapest, neither shalt thou make any aftergathering of thy haruest, but shalt leaue them vnto the poore and to the stranger: I am the Lord your God.

“‘Sɛ motwa mo mfuo mu nnɔbaeɛ a, monntwa ntu aseɛ nnɔbaeɛ no, na deɛ aporo agu fam no nso, monntase. Monnya mma ahiafoɔ ne ahɔhoɔ a wɔte mo mu a wɔnni asase bi a wɔdidi so no. Mene Awurade mo Onyankopɔn!’”

23 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,

24 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say, In the seuenth moneth, and in the first day of the moneth shall ye haue a Sabbath, for the remembrance of blowing the trumpets, an holy conuocation.

“Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ sɛ: ‘Ɔbosome a ɛtɔ so nson no ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan no, ɛsɛ sɛ mohome ɛda no, na moyɛ nhyiamu kronkron na mohyɛn totorobɛnto dendeenden de kae.

25 Ye shall do no seruile worke therein, but offer sacrifice made by fire vnto the Lord.

Saa ɛda no, obiara nni ho ɛkwan sɛ ɔyɛ adwuma, na mmom, mommɔ ogya so afɔdeɛ mma Awurade.’”

26 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,

27 The tenth also of this seuenth moneth shalbe a day of reconciliation: it shalbe an holie conuocation vnto you, and yee shall humble your soules, and offer sacrifice made by fire vnto the Lord.

“Saa bosome a ɛtɔ so nson yi ɛda a ɛtɔ so edu ne Mpata Ɛda no. Monyɛ nhyiamu kronkron, monni abuada na mommɔ ogya so afɔdeɛ mma Awurade

28 And ye shall doe no worke that same day: for it is a day of reconciliation, to make an atonement for you before the Lord your God.

Monnyɛ adwuma biara saa ɛda no, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ Mpata Ɛda, ɛberɛ a wɔpata ma mo wɔ Awurade mo Onyankopɔn anim.

29 For euery person that humbleth not himselfe that same day, shall euen be cut off from his people.

Obiara a wanni ɛda no ahonu ne awerɛhoɔ so wɔ ne bɔne ho no, wɔbɛyi no afiri ne nkurɔfoɔ mu.

30 And euery person that shall doe any work that same day, the same person also will I destroy from among his people.

Obiara a ɔbɛyɛ adwuma saa ɛda no, mɛsɛe no.

31 Ye shall do no maner worke therefore: this shalbe a law for euer in your generations, throughout all your dwellings.

Monnyɛ adwuma biara koraa. Yei bɛyɛ ahyɛdeɛ a ɛbɛtena hɔ daa ama awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ a ɛbɛba no, wɔ baabiara a mobɛtena.

32 This shalbe vnto you a Sabbath of rest, and ye shall humble your soules: in the ninth day of the moneth at euen, from euen to euen shall ye celebrate your Sabbath.

Ɛyɛ Homeda a wɔde home ma mo. Ɛsɛ sɛ mobrɛ mo kra ase. Ɛfiri ɛda a ɛtɔ so nkron kɔsi ɛda edu no anwummerɛ no, ɛsɛ sɛ modi mo Homeda.”

33 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,

34 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say, In the fifteenth day of this seueth moneth shalbe for seuen dayes the feast of Tabernacles vnto the Lord.

“Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ sɛ, ‘Bosome a ɛtɔ so nson no ɛda a ɛtɔ so dunum no, wɔnhyɛ Awurade Asese Afahyɛ no ase, na mode nnanson na ɛbɛdi.

35 In the first day shalbe an holie conuocation: ye shall do no seruile worke therein.

Ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan no yɛ nhyiamu kronkron ɛda; monnyɛ adwuma biara.

36 Seuen daies ye shall offer sacrifice made by fire vnto the Lord, and in the eight day shalbe an holy conuocation vnto you, and ye shall offer sacrifices made by fire vnto the Lord: it is the solemne assemblie, yee shall doe no seruile worke therein.

Ɛda biara wɔ nnanson no mu, ɛsɛ sɛ mobɔ ogya so afɔdeɛ ma Awurade. Ɛda a ɛtɔ so nwɔtwe no, mobɛyɛ nhyiamu kronkron na moabɔ ogya so afɔdeɛ ama Awurade. Ɛyɛ nhyiamu a ɛtwa toɔ. Monnyɛ adwuma biara.

37 These are the feastes of the Lord (which ye shall call holie conuocations) to offer sacrifice made by fire vnto the Lord, as burnt offring, and meate offring, sacrifice, and drinke offrings, euery one vpon his day,

“‘Yeinom ne afahyɛ ahodoɔ a Awurade ahyehyɛ sɛ mommɔ ho dawuro sɛ ɛyɛ nhyiamu kronkron a wɔde afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔhye no ogya so ma Awurade no ba: ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne aduane afɔdeɛ, afɔrebɔdeɛ ahodoɔ ne nsã afɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛho hia ɛda biara.

38 Beside the Sabbaths of the Lord, and beside your giftes, and beside al your vowes, and beside all your free offrings, which ye shall giue vnto the Lord.

Monni saa afahyɛ yi nka Awurade Homeda no ho. Na mode saa afɔrebɔdeɛ nso bɛka mo ankasa ayɛyɛdeɛ, ɛbɔ a moahyɛ ne deɛ mofiri mo pɛ mu de ma Awurade ho.

39 But in the fifteenth day of the seueth moneth, when ye haue gathered in the fruite of the land, ye shall keepe an holie feast vnto the Lord seuen daies: in the first day shalbe a Sabbath: likewise in the eight day shalbe a Sabbath.

“‘Enti ɛfiri bosome a ɛtɔ so nson no ɛda a ɔtɔ so dunum no a moatwa asase no so nnɔbaeɛ no, momfa nnanson nni afahyɛ mma Awurade. Ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan ne deɛ ɛtɔ so nnwɔtwe yɛ ahomegyeɛ nna.

40 And yee shall take you in the first day the fruite of goodly trees, branches of palme trees, and the boughes of thicke trees, and willowes of the brooke, and shall reioyce before the Lord your God seuen daies.

Ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan no, montwitwa nnuaba mman a aba wɔ so, ne mmerɛnkɛnsono ne mman a nhahan wɔ so na momfa mmɔ asese na momma mo ani nnye wɔ mo Awurade Onyankopɔn anim nnanson.

41 So ye shall keepe this feast vnto the Lord seuen daies in the yere, by a perpetuall ordinance through your generations: in the seuenth moneth shall you keepe it.

Ɛsɛ sɛ saa afe biara mu nnanson adidie mmara yi tena hɔ daa firi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so kɔsi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so.

42 Ye shall dwell in boothes seuen daies: all that are Israelites borne, shall dwel in boothes,

Saa nnanson no mu, mo a moyɛ Israelfoɔ mma no, ɛsɛ sɛ motena asese no ase.

43 That your posterity may know that I haue made the children of Israel to dwell in boothes, when I brought them out of the lande of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

Nkyerɛaseɛ a ɛwɔ mu ara ne sɛ, ɛkae Israelfoɔ no firi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so kɔsi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so sɛ, me na megyee mo firii Misraim ma mobɛtenaa asese ase. Mene Awurade mo Onyankopɔn.’”

44 So Moses declared vnto the children of Israel the feastes of the Lord.

Yeinom ne Awurade afahyɛ ahodoɔ a wahyehyɛ a Mose ka kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ no. Enti, Mose kyerɛɛ afahyɛ ahodoɔ a Israelfoɔ no bɛbɔ ama Awurade.
