Numbers 5
1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Yei ne mmara a Awurade sane hyɛ maa Mose:
2 'Command the children of Israel, that they put out of the camp every leper, and every one that hath an issue, and whosoever is unclean by the dead;
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔpam akwatafoɔ nyinaa firi atenaeɛ hɔ. Wɔn a ekuro atutu wɔn ne wɔn a wɔde wɔn nsa akɔka efunu enti wɔn ho agu fi nyinaa no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔpam wɔn.
3 both male and female shall ye put out, without the camp shall ye put them; that they defile not their camp, in the midst whereof I dwell.'
Mmarima ne mmaa nyinaa ka ho. Yi wɔn nyinaa firi hɔ sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ na atenaeɛ hɔ a me ne mo bɛtena no ho rengu fi”.
4 And the children of Israel did so, and put them out without the camp; as the LORD spoke unto Moses, so did the children of Israel.
Wɔdii Awurade mmara no so.
5 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
6 Speak unto the children of Israel: When a man or woman shall commit any sin that men commit, to commit a trespass against the LORD, and that soul be guilty;
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, sɛ ɔbarima o, ɔbaa o, ɔdi Awurade hwammɔ a, ɛyɛ bɔne.
7 then they shall confess their sin which they have done; and he shall make restitution for his guilt in full, and add unto it the fifth part thereof, and give it unto him in respect of whom he hath been guilty.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔka ne bɔne na adeɛ a ɔwiaeɛ no, ɔtua ho ka nyinaa na ɔsane de ɛho ka no nkyɛmu ɔha mu aduonu ka ho de ma onipa ko a ɔbɔɔ no korɔno no.
8 But if the man have no kinsman to whom restitution may be made for the guilt, the restitution for guilt which is made shall be the LORD'S, even the priest's; besides the ram of the atonement, whereby atonement shall be made for him.
Na sɛ onipa ko a ɔyɛɛ no bɔne no awu na ɔnni obusuani biara a ɔbɛn no a wɔbɛtua ho ka ama no no a, ɛsɛ sɛ, sɛ ɔtua ka no ma ɔsɔfoɔ a, odwennini ka ho sɛ mpatadeɛ. Ɛyɛ Awurade dea.
9 And every heave-offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they present unto the priest, shall be his.
Akyɛdeɛ kronkron a Israelfoɔ de bɛkyɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no yɛ ne dea.
10 And every man's hallowed things shall be his: whatsoever any man giveth the priest, it shall be his.
Ɔsɔfoɔ biara bɛfa akyɛdeɛ kronkron biara a ne nsa bɛka.”
11 and the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
12 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: If any man's wife go aside, and act unfaithfully against him,
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, sɛ ɔbarima bi yere kɔbɔ adwaman
13 and a man lie with her carnally, and it be hid from the eyes of her husband, she being defiled secretly, and there be no witness against her, neither she be taken in the act;
nanso ɔnhunu asɛm no mu nokorɛ na ɔnnya ɔdanseni
14 and the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be defiled; or if the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be not defiled;
na ɔtwe ho ninkunu na ɔnte ne ho ase a,
15 then shall the man bring his wife unto the priest, and shall bring her offering for her, the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil upon it, nor put frankincense thereon; for it is a meal-offering of jealousy, a meal-offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to remembrance.
ɔbarima no de ne yere no bɛkɔ ɔsɔfoɔ anim a ɔbaa no ho afɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛyɛ atokosiam a wɔmfaa ohwam ngo mfraeɛ lita mmienu ka ho. Ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ ninkuntwe afɔrebɔ. Ɛno na ɛbɛma nokorɛ ada adie ama wɔahunu sɛ ɔbaa no di fɔ anaa ɔdi bem.
16 And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the LORD.
“Ɔsɔfoɔ no de ɔbaa no bɛba Awurade anim,
17 And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water.
na wasa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu mfuturo de afra nsuo kronkron a ɛgu asansuo kɛseɛ bi mu no.
18 And the priest shall set the woman before the LORD, and let the hair of the woman's head go loose, and put the meal-offering of memorial in her hands, which is the meal-offering of jealousy; and the priest shall have in his hand the water of bitterness that causeth the curse.
Ɔbɛsane ne ti a wakyekyere no na ɔde ninkunu afɔrebɔdeɛ no agu ne nsam de ahwɛ sɛ ɔbarima no nsusuiɛ no yɛ nokorɛ ampa ara anaasɛ ɛnyɛ nokorɛ. Ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛgyina nʼanim a ɔkura nsuo nwononwono a ɛde mmusuo ba no.
19 And the priest shall cause her to swear, and shall say unto the woman: 'If no man have lain with thee, and if thou hast not gone aside to uncleanness, being under thy husband, be thou free from this water of bitterness that causeth the curse;
Ɔbɛma no aka ntam sɛ ɔnnim asɛm no ho hwee na waka akyerɛ no sɛ, sɛ wo ne ɔbarima biara nnaeɛ ka wo kunu nko ara ho deɛ a, ɛnneɛ, wo ho nte mfiri nsuo nwononwono a ɛde mmusuo ba yi ho. Na sɛ woabɔ adwaman a, ɛnneɛ, Awurade bɛdome wo wɔ wo nkurɔfoɔ mu. Ɔbɛma wo srɛ aporɔ na wo yafunu ahono. Na ɔbaa no bɛka sɛ, ‘Aane, saa na ɛsɛ sɛ ɛba.’
20 but if thou hast gone aside, being under thy husband, and if thou be defiled, and some man have lain with thee besides thy husband —
21 then the priest shall cause the woman to swear with the oath of cursing, and the priest shall say unto the woman — the LORD make thee a curse and an oath among thy people, when the LORD doth make thy thigh to fall away, and thy belly to swell;
22 and this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy bowels, and make thy belly to swell, and thy thigh to fall away'; and the woman shall say: 'Amen, Amen.'
23 And the priest shall write these curses in a scroll, and he shall blot them out into the water of bitterness.
“Ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛtwerɛ nnome yi nyinaa agu nwoma bi mu na wahohoro agu nsuo nwononwono no mu.
24 And he shall make the woman drink the water of bitterness that causeth the curse; and the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her and become bitter.
Sɛ ɛsɛ sɛ ɔbaa no nom nsuo no na sɛ ɔnom wɔ ɛberɛ a wayɛ bɔne a, ɛyɛ nwononwononwono wɔ ne mu.
25 And the priest shall take the meal-offering of jealousy out of the woman's hand, and shall wave the meal-offering before the LORD, and bring it unto the altar.
Afei, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛgye ninkunu afɔrebɔdeɛ no afiri ɔbaa no nsam na wahinhim no Awurade anim na ɔde akɔ afɔrebukyia no so.
26 And the priest shall take a handful of the meal-offering, as the memorial-part thereof, and make it smoke upon the altar, and afterward shall make the woman drink the water.
Ɔbɛsa ne nsabuo ma de asi ne nyinaa anan na wahye no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so na wama ɔbaa no anom nsuo no.
27 And when he hath made her drink the water, then it shall come to pass, if she be defiled, and have acted unfaithfully against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall fall away; and the woman shall be a curse among her people.
Sɛ ne ho agu fi na wabɔ adwaman no atia ne kunu a, nsuo a wanom no bɛyɛ nwononwononwono wɔ ne mu na ne yafunu ahono na ne srɛ aporɔ na wayɛ nnome wɔ ne nkurɔfoɔ mu.
28 And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be cleared, and shall conceive seed.
Sɛ ɔyɛ kronn a ɔmmɔɔ adwaman a, wɔrenha no, na ɛrenkyɛre, ɔbɛnyinsɛn.
29 This is the law of jealousy, when a wife, being under her husband, goeth aside, and is defiled;
“Yei ne mmara a ɛfa ɔbaa a ne bra nyɛ na ne kunu twe ne ho ninkunu
30 or when the spirit of jealousy cometh upon a man, and he be jealous over his wife; then shall he set the woman before the LORD, and the priest shall execute upon her all this law.
de hwehwɛ mu hunu sɛ ɔdi ne kunu nokorɛ anaa ɔnni no nokorɛ no ho. Ɔde no bɛba Awurade anim na ɔsɔfoɔ no adi dwuma a wɔabobɔ so no nyinaa.
31 And the man shall be clear from iniquity, and that woman shall bear her iniquity.
Wɔrenni ne kunu no asɛm wɔ baabiara sɛ wama yare bɔne bi aba ne yere so, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ ɔno ara na ɔma ɛbaa saa.”
