< Leviticus 12 >
1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying: If a woman be delivered, and bear a man-child, then she shall be unclean seven days; as in the days of the impurity of her sickness shall she be unclean.
‘Sɛ ɔbea bi wo ɔbabarima a, ne ho ntew nnanson, te sɛ nea ɔkɔ afikyiri a ne ho ntew no ara.
3 And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
Ne nnaawɔtwe so no, ɛsɛ sɛ wotwa abarimaa no twetia.
4 And she shall continue in the blood of purification three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purification be fulfilled.
Na nnafua aduasa abiɛsa a ɛda nʼanim a ɔde retew ne ho no, ɛnsɛ sɛ oso biribiara a ɛyɛ kronkron mu na onni ho kwan sɛ ɔkɔ hyiadan mu nso.
5 But if she bear a maid-child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her impurity; and she shall continue in the blood of purification threescore and six days.
Sɛ ɔbea bi wo ɔbabea a, ne ho ntew nnaawɔtwe abien, te sɛ nea ɔkɔ afikyiri a ne ho ntew no ara. Afei ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtwɛn nnafua aduosia asia ma ne ho twa.
6 And when the days of her purification are fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first year for a burnt-offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtle-dove, for a sin-offering, unto the door of the tent of meeting, unto the priest.
“‘Sɛ saa ahotew nna yi twa mu a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde oguamma a wadi afe bɛbɔ ɔhyew afɔre na ɔde aborɔnoma anaa aturukuku ba bɛbɔ bɔne ho afɔre. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde wɔn kɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no ano kɔma ɔsɔfo no.
7 And he shall offer it before the LORD, and make atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the fountain of her blood. This is the law for her that beareth, whether a male or a female.
Na ɔsɔfo no de wɔn bɛma Awurade de ayɛ mpata ama ɛna no; ɛba saa a, ne ho tew bio wɔ nʼawo mu mogyagugu ho. “‘Eyinom ne awo akyi ahyɛde.
8 And if her means suffice not for a lamb, then she shall take two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons: the one for a burnt-offering, and the other for a sin-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
Na sɛ ɔyɛ ohiani a ɔrennya oguamma no a, ɛno de, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde mmorɔnoma abien anaa nturukuku mma abien ba. Wɔde ɔbaako bɛbɔ ɔhyew afɔre na wɔde ɔbaako abɔ bɔne ho afɔre. Ɔsɔfo no bɛfa saa kwan yi so ayɛ mpata ama no, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a ne ho bɛtew bio.’”
