< Leviticus 5 >
1 And if any one sin, in that he heareth the voice of adjuration, he being a witness, whether he hath seen or known, if he do not utter it, then he shall bear his iniquity;
“‘Obiara a ɔnka bɔne bi a ɔnim ho biribi ho hwee no di ho fɔ.
2 or if any one touch any unclean thing, whether it be the carcass of an unclean beast, or the carcass of unclean cattle, or the carcass of unclean swarming things, and be guilty, it being hidden from him that he is unclean;
“‘Obiara a ɔde ne nsa ka adeɛ bi a amanneɛ kwan so, ɛho nte, te sɛ aboa bi a ne ho nteɛ no funu, sɛ ɔyɛ wiram aboa, sɛ ɔyɛ afieboa anaa aboa a ɔwea fam no, mpo sɛ wɔnnim sɛ wɔn ho agu fi a, wɔbɛfa no sɛ wɔn ho nte na wɔdi fɔ.
3 or if he touch the uncleanness of man, whatsoever his uncleanness be wherewith he is unclean, and it be hid from him; and, when he knoweth of it, be guilty;
Sɛ obi anhyɛ da na ɔde ne nsa ka biribi a ɛfiri onipa mu a ɛho nte na ɔte ne ho ase sɛ wayɛ saa adeɛ no a, ɔdi ho fɔ.
4 or if any one swear clearly with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatsoever it be that a man shall utter clearly with an oath, and it be hid from him; and, when he knoweth of it, be guilty in one of these things;
Sɛ obi ka ntam a, sɛ ntam no yɛ anaa ɛyɛ ntanhunu no, sɛ ɔhunu sɛ ɛyɛ ntanhunu a, ɔdi ho fɔ.
5 and it shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these things, that he shall confess that wherein he hath sinned;
Sɛ obi di yeinom bi ho fɔ a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔka ne bɔne no mu nokorɛ
6 and he shall bring his forfeit unto the LORD for his sin which he hath sinned, a female from the flock, a lamb or a goat, for a sin-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him as concerning his sin.
na ɔde odwanbereɛ anaa abirekyibereɛ bɔ afɔdeɛ ma Awurade. Ɔsɔfoɔ na ɔbɛbɔ onipa ko no bɔne no ho afɔdeɛ ama no. Ɔsɔfoɔ no nam saa afɔrebɔ yi so bɛpata ama no.
7 And if his means suffice not for a lamb, then he shall bring his forfeit for that wherein he hath sinned, two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, unto the LORD: one for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering.
“‘Sɛ ɔyɛ ohiani a ɔrennya odwammaa mfa mma Awurade a, ɔmfa nturukuku mmienu anaa mmorɔnoma mma mmienu mmra sɛ ne bɔne ho afɔrebɔdeɛ. Nnomaa no mu baako bɛyɛ ne bɔne no afɔrebɔdeɛ na ɔbaako ayɛ ne hyeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ.
8 And he shall bring them unto the priest, who shall offer that which is for the sin-offering first, and pinch off its head close by its neck, but shall not divide it asunder.
Ɔde bɛma ɔsɔfoɔ no na ɔde anomaa a ɔdi ɛkan no abɔ bɔne afɔdeɛ no. Ɔbɛkyinsa aboa no kɔn nanso ɔrente ne ti mfiri so,
9 And he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin-offering upon the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the altar; it is a sin-offering.
na wapete ne mogya no bi agu afɔrebukyia no ho. Mogya no nkaeɛ no, ɔbɛhwie agu afɔrebukyia no ase. Yei ne afɔrebɔ kwan a ɛpepa bɔne.
10 And he shall prepare the second for a burnt-offering, according to the ordinance; and the priest shall make atonement for him as concerning his sin which he hath sinned, and he shall be forgiven.
Ɔde anomaa a ɔtɔ so mmienu no bɛbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ sɛdeɛ ɔbɔɔ afɔdeɛ a ɛdi ɛkan no ara pɛ. Ɔsɔfoɔ no nam saa afɔrebɔ yi so bɛpata ama deɛ wayɛ bɔne no, na ɛnam so ma wɔde ne bɔne akyɛ no.
11 But if his means suffice not for two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, then he shall bring his offering for that wherein he hath sinned, the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a sin-offering; he shall put no oil upon it, neither shall he put any frankincense thereon; for it is a sin-offering.
“‘Sɛ ɔyɛ ohiani buruburo a ɔrentumi mfa nturukuku anaa mmorɔnoma mma mmɛbɔ ne bɔne ho afɔdeɛ a, ɔde asikyiresiam papa lita mmienu ne fa bɛba sɛ ne bɔne ho afɔrebɔdeɛ. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔde ɔsra ngo fra. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔde aduhwam nso gu so, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ bɔne afɔdeɛ.
12 And he shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it as the memorial-part thereof, and make it smoke on the altar, upon the offerings of the LORD made by fire; it is a sin-offering.
Ɔde bɛma ɔsɔfoɔ no. Na ɔsɔfoɔ no asa ne nsabuo ma de asi ne nyinaa anan na wahye no afɔrebukyia no so ama Awurade sɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ biara. Yei bɛyɛ ne bɔne ho afɔrebɔ.
13 And the priest shall make atonement for him as touching his sin that he hath sinned in any of these things, and he shall be forgiven; and the remnant shall be the priest's, as the meal-offering.
Sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔsɔfoɔ no nam saa afɔrebɔ yi so bɛpata ama onipa no na wɔde ne bɔne no bɛkyɛ no. Asikyiresiam a aka no, wɔde bɛma ɔsɔfoɔ no te sɛ afudeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ no ara pɛ.’”
14 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Awurade hyɛɛ mmara maa Mose sɛ,
15 If any one commit a trespass, and sin through error, in the holy things of the LORD, then he shall bring his forfeit unto the LORD, a ram without blemish out of the flock, according to thy valuation in silver by shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for a guilt-offering.
“Sɛ obi anhyɛ da na ɔgu ade kronkron ho fi a, ɔde odwennini a ne ho nni dɛm a ɔfata sɛ mpatadeɛ wɔ ne fɔ no ho bɛba abɛbɔ Awurade afɔdeɛ.
16 And he shall make restitution for that which he hath done amiss in the holy thing, and shall add the fifth part thereto, and give it unto the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt-offering, and he shall be forgiven.
Ade kronkron a onipa no guu ho fi no nso, ɔde foforɔ bɛsi anan na watua dekodeɛ no boɔ ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka ho sɛ asotwe. Ɔde ne nyinaa bɛma ɔsɔfoɔ na ɔde odwennini no abɔ bɔne afɔdeɛ no na wɔde ne bɔne akyɛ no.
17 And if any one sin, and do any of the things which the LORD hath commanded not to be done, though he know it not, yet is he guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.
“Sɛ obi anhyɛ da na ɔbu Awurade mmara no bi so a, ɔdi fɔ enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtua afɔbudeɛ a Mose bɛhyɛ no.
18 And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the flock, according to thy valuation, for a guilt-offering, unto the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning the error which he committed, though he knew it not, and he shall be forgiven.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde odwennini anaa ɔpapo a ɔnni dɛm brɛ ɔsɔfoɔ sɛ ne bɔne no ho afɔrebɔdeɛ. Na ɔsɔfoɔ no de ayɛ mpatadeɛ ama no sɛdeɛ bɔne biara a ɔyɛeɛ a wanhyɛ da no, na wɔde ne bɔne bɛkyɛ no.
19 It is a guilt-offering — he is certainly guilty before the LORD.
Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔbɔ saa afɔdeɛ no sɛ afɔdie afɔrebɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔdi fɔ pefee wɔ Awurade anim.”
