Leviticus 4
1 And YHWH spake unto Moses, saying,
Afei Awurade hyɛɛ mmara foforɔ maa Mose sɛ:
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin through ignorance against any of the commandments of YHWH concerning things which ought not to be done, and shall do against any of them:
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ sɛ, ‘saa mmara yi na ɛwɔ hɔ ma obiara a wanhyɛ da na ɔbɛbu Awurade mmara no bi so.
3 If the priest that is anointed do sin according to the sin of the people; then let him bring for his sin, which he hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish unto YHWH for a sin offering.
“‘Sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ bi anhyɛ da na ɔfom mmara bi na ɛnam so de afɔbuo ba nnipa no so a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde nantwinini ba a ɔnnii dɛm bɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ de ma Awurade.
4 And he shall bring the bullock unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before YHWH; and shall lay his hand upon the bullock's head, and kill the bullock before YHWH.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde aboa no ba Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ɛpono ano na ɔde ne nsa gu nʼapampam na ɔkum no wɔ hɔ wɔ Awurade anim.
5 And the priest that is anointed shall take of the bullock's blood, and bring it to the tabernacle of the congregation:
Ɔsɔfoɔ no de aboa no mogya bɛkɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu.
6 And the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle of the blood seven times before YHWH, before the vail of the sanctuary.
Ɔde ne nsateaa baako bɛbɔ mogya no mu apete no mprɛnson wɔ Awurade anim wɔ ntoma a ɛsɛn kronkron mu kronkron no anim.
7 And the priest shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the altar of sweet incense before YHWH, which is in the tabernacle of the congregation: and shall pour all the blood of the bullock at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Afei, ɔsɔfoɔ no de mogya no bi bɛgu aduhwam no toa a ɛsi afɔrebukyia no so no wɔ Awurade anim wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu; mogya no a ɛbɛka no, wɔbɛhwie agu afɔrebukyia no ase de abɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no kwan ano.
8 And he shall take off from it all the fat of the bullock for the sin offering; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,
Afei ɔbɛtete sradeɛ a ɛwɔ ne nsono no ho nyinaa,
9 And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away,
ne sawa mmienu no ne sisia sradeɛ ne ne berɛboɔ kotokuo,
10 As it was taken off from the bullock of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest shall burn them upon the altar of the burnt offering.
na wahye no wɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔrebukyia no so te sɛ nantwinini anaa nantwibereɛ a wɔde no bɔ asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ no pɛ.
11 And the skin of the bullock, and all his flesh, with his head, and with his legs, and his inwards, and his dung,
Nanso nantwie ba no ho nneɛma a ɛbɛka a ɛyɛ ne nhoma, ne nam, ne ti, ne nan, nʼayamdeɛ, ne ne nsono no deɛ,
12 Even the whole bullock shall he carry forth without the camp unto a clean place, where the ashes are poured out, and burn him on the wood with fire: where the ashes are poured out shall he be burnt.
wɔmfa nkɔ afahyɛbea bi a ɛhɔ te wɔ akyiri baabi a wɔde nsõ firi afɔrebukyia no so kɔ hɔ kɔhye no nnyensin so no.
13 And if the whole congregation of Israel sin through ignorance, and the thing be hid from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done somewhat against any of the commandments of YHWH concerning things which should not be done, and are guilty
“‘Sɛ Israelfoɔ nyinaa yɛ bɔne a ɛtia Awurade, na sɛ ɛnyɛ boapa yɛ a, nnipa no nyinaa bɛdi ho fɔ.
14 When the sin, which they have sinned against it, is known, then the congregation shall offer a young bullock for the sin, and bring him before the tabernacle of the congregation.
Na sɛ wɔhunu wɔn bɔne a, wɔde nantwie ba bɛba abɛbɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu.
15 And the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands upon the head of the bullock before YHWH: and the bullock shall be killed before YHWH.
Sɛ wɔrebɔ saa afɔdeɛ no a, ɔman no mu mpanimfoɔ de wɔn nsa bɛgu aboa no apampam na wɔakum no wɔ Awurade anim.
16 And the priest that is anointed shall bring of the bullock's blood to the tabernacle of the congregation:
Na ɔsɔfoɔ no de ne mogya aba Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu,
17 And the priest shall dip his finger in some of the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before YHWH, even before the vail.
na ɔde ne nsateaa baako abɔ mogya no mu apete no mprɛnson wɔ Awurade ne ntoma a ɛtwa ɛdan no mu no anim.
18 And he shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the altar which is before YHWH, that is in the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall pour out all the blood at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Ɔde mogya bɛgu mmɛn a ɛtuatua afɔrebukyia no ho no so wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu wɔ Awurade anim. Afei ɔbɛhwie mogya a aka wɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no afɔrebukyia no ase no agu wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no kwan ano.
19 And he shall take all his fat from him, and burn it upon the altar.
Sradeɛ a ɛwɔ aboa no mu nyinaa, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔyi na wɔhye no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so.
20 And he shall do with the bullock as he did with the bullock for a sin offering, so shall he do with this: and the priest shall make an atonement for them, and it shall be forgiven them.
Ɔbɛfa ɛkwan a wɔfa so bɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ no so pɛpɛɛpɛ. Yei bɛma ɔsɔfoɔ no abɛyɛ mpatadeɛ ama ɔman no na wɔde obiara bɔne bɛkyɛ no.
21 And he shall carry forth the bullock without the camp, and burn him as he burned the first bullock: it is a sin offering for the congregation.
Afei asɔfoɔ no bɛtwe nantwinini ba no de no akɔ beaeɛ foforɔ bi so akɔhye no wɔ hɔ te sɛ deɛ ɔrebɔ ɔbaakofoɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ no. Nanso yei deɛ, ɛyɛ ɔman mu no nyinaa afɔrebɔdeɛ.
22 When a ruler hath sinned, and done somewhat through ignorance against any of the commandments of YHWH his Elohim concerning things which should not be done, and is guilty;
“‘Sɛ mpanimfoɔ no bi yɛ bɔne a ɔnnim sɛ wafom Awurade Onyankopɔn mmara no baako
23 Or if his sin, wherein he hath sinned, come to his knowledge; he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a male without blemish:
na wɔma no te ne ho ase a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ɔpapo a ne ho nni dɛm ba sɛ nʼafɔrebɔdeɛ.
24 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the goat, and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt offering before YHWH: it is a sin offering.
Ɔde ne nsa bɛgu aboa no apampam na wakum no wɔ beaeɛ a wɔkum ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ mmoa no de ama Awurade no. Yei yɛ ne bɔne ho afɔrebɔdeɛ.
25 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out his blood at the bottom of the altar of burnt offering.
Afei, ɔsɔfoɔ no de ne nsateaa baako bɛbɔ afɔrebɔdeɛ mogya no mu na ɔde afɔre afɔrebukyia a wɔbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ wɔ so no mmɛn no ho; na afei wɔahwie mogya no nkaeɛ agu afɔrebukyia no ase.
26 And he shall burn all his fat upon the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest shall make an atonement for him as concerning his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.
Wɔbɛhye sradeɛ no nyinaa wɔ afɔrebukyia no so te sɛ deɛ wɔhye asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ sradeɛ no ara pɛ; ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ɔsɔfoɔ no nam saa afɔrebɔ yi so bɛpata ama ɔpanin ko no wɔ ne bɔne no ho na wɔde ne bɔne no bɛkyɛ no.
27 And if any one of the common people sin through ignorance, while he doeth somewhat against any of the commandments of YHWH concerning things which ought not to be done, and be guilty;
“‘Sɛ ɔpapahwekwaa bi yɛ bɔne a ɔnnim sɛ wafom a, ɔdi ho fɔ.
28 Or if his sin, which he hath sinned, come to his knowledge: then he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a female without blemish, for his sin which he hath sinned.
Nanso ɔnya te ne ho ase ara pɛ a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde abirekyibereɛ a ne ho nni dɛm ba ma wɔde pata ne bɔne no.
29 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and slay the sin offering in the place of the burnt offering.
Ɔde no bɛba beaeɛ a wɔde mmoa a wɔde wɔn ba ma wɔkum wɔn de wɔn bɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ hɔ no, na ɔde ne nsa ato bɔne ho afɔrebɔdeɛ no apampam na wakum no.
30 And the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar.
Na ɔsɔfoɔ no de mogya no bi afɔre ne nsateaa baako ho na ɔde afɔre ɔhyeɛ afɔrebukyia mmɛn no ho. Afei, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhwie mogya no nkaeɛ no agu afɔrebukyia no ase.
31 And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat is taken away from off the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall burn it upon the altar for a sweet savour unto YHWH; and the priest shall make an atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him.
Wɔbɛyi sradeɛ no nyinaa afiri mu te sɛ deɛ wɔfa bɔ asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ no ara. Na ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhye no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so. Na Awurade ani bɛsɔ. Ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ɔsɔfoɔ no nam saa afɔrebɔ yi so bɛpata ama saa onipa no na wɔde ne bɔne bɛkyɛ no.
32 And if he bring a lamb for a sin offering, he shall bring it a female without blemish.
“‘Na sɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɔde odwammaa bɛbɔ ne bɔne ho afɔdeɛ nso a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔyɛ ɔbereɛ a ɛdɛm biara nni ne ho.
33 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and slay it for a sin offering in the place where they kill the burnt offering
Ɔde no bɛba beaeɛ a wɔde mmoa a wɔde wɔn ba ma wɔkum wɔn de wɔn bɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ hɔ no, na ɔde ne nsa ato bɔne no afɔrebɔdeɛ no apampam na wakum no sɛ bɔne ho afɔrebɔdeɛ.
34 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar:
Na ɔsɔfoɔ no de mogya no bi afɔre ne nsateaa baako ho na ɔde afɔre ɔhyeɛ afɔrebukyia mmɛn no ho. Na wahwie mogya no nkaeɛ no agu afɔrebukyia no ase.
35 And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat of the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of the peace offerings; and the priest shall burn them upon the altar, according to the offerings made by fire unto YHWH: and the priest shall make an atonement for his sin that he hath committed, and it shall be forgiven him.
Wɔbɛyɛ sradeɛ no sɛdeɛ wɔyɛ asomdwoeɛ odwammaa sradeɛ no. Ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhye sradeɛ no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so te sɛ afɔdeɛ ahodoɔ a wɔde ogya bɔ ma Awurade no ara pɛ. Ɔsɔfoɔ no nam saa afɔrebɔ yi so bɛpata ama onipa ko no, na wɔde ne bɔne bɛkyɛ no.
