< Numbers 19 >

1 And the Lord spake to Moses, and to Aaron, saying,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron sɛ,
2 This is the ordinance of the lawe, which the Lord hath commanded, saying, Speake vnto the children of Israel that they bring thee a red kow without blemish, wherein is no spot, vpon the which neuer came yoke.
“Me som ho mmara foforɔ nie: Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ sɛ wɔmfa nantwie ba bereɛ kɔkɔɔ a ɔnnii dɛm na ɔntwee nneɛma da mmrɛ me.
3 And ye shall giue her vnto Eleazar ye Priest, that hee may bring her without the hoste, and cause her to be slaine before his face.
Momfa no mma ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa na ɔde no bɛkɔ atenaeɛ no akyi baabi na obi akum no ɛberɛ a ɔno ara nso rehwɛ.
4 Then shall Eleazar the Priest take of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle it before the Tabernacle of the Congregation seuen times,
Eleasa de ne nsateaa bɛbɔ mogya no mu na ɔde apete Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no anim mprɛnson.
5 And cause the kow to be burnt in his sight: with her skinne, and her flesh, and her blood, and her doung shall he burne her.
Afei, ɔbɛhwɛ ama obi ahye nantwie ba no. Ɔbɛhye ne ho nwoma, ne nam, ne mogya ne nʼagyanan nyinaa.
6 Then shall the Priest take cedar wood, and hyssope and skarlet lace, and cast them in the mids of the fire where the kow burneth.
Na ɛgu so rehye no, Eleasa bɛfa odum dua ne hisope mman ne asaawa kɔkɔɔ na wato agu nneɛma a wɔrehye no mu.
7 Then shall the Priest wash his clothes, and he shall wash his flesh in water, and then come into the hoste, and the Priest shalbe vncleane vnto the euen.
Yei akyi, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsi ne ntadeɛ na ɔdware na afei ɔkɔ atenaeɛ hɔ a wɔfa no sɛ ne ho agu fi kɔsi anwummerɛ.
8 Also he that burneth her, shall wash his clothes in water, and wash his flesh in water, and be vncleane vntill euen.
Onipa a ɔhyee aboa no nso, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsi ne ntadeɛ, na ɔdware, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔno nso ho agu fi kɔsi anwummerɛ.
9 And a man, that is cleane, shall take vp the ashes of the kow, and put them without the hoste in a cleane place: and it shalbe kept for the Congregation of the children of Israel for a sprinkling water: it is a sinne offring.
“Afei, obi a ne ho nguu fi no bɛsesa aboa a wɔhyee no no nsõ de akɔ atenaeɛ no akyi baabi a ɛhɔ yɛ kronkron na wakɔkora no wɔ hɔ. Israelfoɔ no de bɛgu wɔn nsuo a wɔde dwira wɔn ho de pam wɔn bɔne no mu.
10 Therefore he that gathereth the ashes of the kow, shall wash his clothes, and remaine vncleane vntil euen: and it shalbe vnto the children of Israel, and vnto the stranger that dwelleth among them, a statute for euer.
Onipa a ɔbɛboaboa nantwie ba no nsõ no ano no nso, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsi ne ntadeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, ne ho gu fi kɔsi anwummerɛ; yei yɛ mmara a ɛwɔ hɔ daa a ɛho wɔ mfasoɔ ma Israelfoɔ no ne ahɔhoɔ a wɔte wɔn mu no nyinaa.
11 Hee that toucheth the dead body of any man, shalbe vncleane euen seuen dayes.
“Obiara a ɔbɛsɔ efunu mu no ho bɛgu fi nnanson.
12 Hee shall purifie himselfe therewith the third day, and the seuenth day he shall be cleane: but if he purifie not himselfe the thirde day, then the seuenth day he shall not be cleane.
Na ne nnansa ne ne nnanson so no, ɔde nsuo a wɔde dwira wɔn ho no adwira ne ho ama ne ho ate. Sɛ ne nnansa so wanyɛ yei a, ne nnanson akyi nyinaa na ne ho agu fi.
13 Whosoeuer toucheth ye corps of any man that is dead, and purgeth not himselfe, defileth the Tabernacle of the Lord, and that person shall be cut off from Israel, because the sprinkling water was not sprinkled vpon him: he shall be vncleane, and his vncleannesse shall remaine still vpon him.
Wɔn a wɔsɔ efunu mu na wɔnnwira wɔn ho sɛdeɛ makyerɛ yi no, wɔgu Awurade Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan ho fi, na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔyi saa nnipa no firi Israelfoɔ mu. Esiane sɛ wɔamfa ahodwira nsuo no bi ampete wɔn ho no enti, wɔn ho agu fi ara.
14 This is the law, Whe a man dieth in a tent, all that come into the tent, and all that is in the tent, shalbe vncleane seuen dayes,
“Sɛ obi wu wɔ ntomadan mu a, ɛho mmara nie: Obiara a ɔbɛwura saa ntomadan no mu ne wɔn a wɔwɔ mu dada ansa na onipa no rewuo no nyinaa ho gu fi nnanson.
15 And all the vessels that bee open, which haue no couering fastened vpon them, shall be vncleane.
Adeɛ biara a wɔde biribi gu mu a ɛnni mmuasoɔ no nso ho gu fi.
16 Also whosoeuer toucheth one that is slaine with a sworde in the fielde, or a dead person, or a bone of a dead man, or a graue, shall be vncleane seuen dayes.
“Sɛ obi a ɔwɔ abɔntene de ne nsa ka obi a ɔtɔɔ wɔ akofena ano funu anaa sɛ obi a ɔnyɛ ɔtɔfoɔ funu, anaasɛ obi de ne nsa ka onipa dompe anaa damena a, ne ho bɛgu fi nnanson.
17 Therfore for an vncleane person they shall take of the burnt ashes of the sinne offring, and pure water shalbe put thereto in a vessel.
“Ansa na ne ho bɛte bio no, gye sɛ wɔde nantwie ba kɔkɔɔ no nsõ a wɔde bɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ no fra nsuo a wɔde agu asuhina mu.
18 And a cleane person shall take hyssope and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it vpon the tent, and vpon all the vessels, and on the persons that were therein, and vpon him that touched ye bone, or the slayne, or the dead, or the graue.
Na obi a ne ho te afa hisope mman na ɔde abɔ nsuo no mu de apete ntomadan no so ne nkuku ne nkaka a ɛwɔ ntomadan no mu no nso so ne obiara a na ɔwɔ ntomadan no mu a ne ho agu fi no so. Saa ara nso na obi a ɔsɔɔ dompe mu anaa ɔsɔɔ obi a wɔakum no anaa deɛ ɔde ne ho aka damena no nso, wɔdwira ne ho.
19 And the cleane person shall sprinkle vpon the vncleane the third day, and the seuenth day, and hee shall purifie him selfe the seuenth day, and wash his clothes, and wash himself in water, and shalbe cleane at euen.
Wɔyɛ yei ne nnansa ne ne nnanson so. Na deɛ ne ho agu fi no nso, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsi ne ntadeɛ na ɔdware, na ɛduru anwummerɛ a, afei ne ho ate.
20 But the man that is vncleane and purifieth not himselfe, that person shalbe cut off from among the Congregation, because hee hath defiled the Sanctuarie of the Lord: and the sprinkling water hath not bene sprinkled vpon him: therefore shall he be vncleane.
Nanso, obiara a ne ho agu fi na wannwira ne ho no, wɔbɛtwa no asuo, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔagu Awurade kronkronbea hɔ ho fi. Ɛfiri sɛ wɔmfaa nsuo a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde pete ne so no mpetee ne so no enti, ne ho agu fi.
21 And it shalbe a perpetual lawe vnto them, that he that sprinkleth the sprinkling water, shall wash his clothes: also hee that toucheth the sprinkling water, shalbe vncleane vntill euen.
Yei yɛ mmara a ɛwɔ hɔ afebɔɔ. “Onipa a ɔbɛtu nsuo no apete no nso, ɛsɛ sɛ akyire no, ɔsi ne ntadeɛ, na obiara a ɔde ne nsa bɛka nsuo no nso ho gu fi kɔsi anwummerɛ.
22 And whatsoeuer the vncleane person toucheth, shall be vncleane: and the person that toucheth him, shalbe vncleane vntill the euen.
Na biribiara a obi a ne ho agu fi no bɛsɔ mu no nso ho gu fi kɔsi anwummerɛ.”
