< Numbers 9 >
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying,
Yehowa de se siawo na Mose esime Mose kple Israelvi mamlɛawo nɔ Sinai gbedzi le ɣleti gbãtɔ me, le ƒe evelia me, esi wodo go tso Egipte. Yehowa gblɔ nɛ be,
2 Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed season.
“Na Israelviwo naɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la le eƒe ɣeyiɣi la dzi.
3 In the fourteenth day of this month, at even, ye shall keep it in his appointed season: according to all the rites of it, and according to all the ceremonies thereof, shall ye keep it.
Miɖui le eƒe ɣeyiɣi la dzi, le fiẽ, le ɣleti sia ƒe ŋkeke wuienelia gbe le eƒe sewo kple ɖoɖowo katã nu.”
4 And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover.
Ale Mose gblɔ na Israelviwo be woaɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la,
5 And they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month at even in the wilderness of Sinai: according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.
eye woɖui le Sinai gbegbe la le fiẽ, le ɣleti gbãtɔ ƒe ŋkeke wuienelia gbe. Israelviwo wɔ nu sia nu abe ale si Yehowa ɖo na Mose ene.
6 And there were certain men, who were defiled by the dead body of a man, that they could not keep the passover on that day: and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day:
Ke wo dometɔ aɖewo mete ŋu ɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la gbe ma gbe o, elabena wo dometɔ aɖewo gblẽ kɔ ɖo na wo ɖokuiwo le ame kuku aɖe ta. Ale wova Mose kple Aron gbɔ gbe ma gbe,
7 And those men said unto him, We [are] defiled by the dead body of a man: wherefore are we kept back, that we may not offer an offering of the LORD in his appointed season among the children of Israel?
eye wogblɔ na Mose be, “Míegblẽ kɔ ɖo ɖe ame kuku aɖe ta, ke nu ka ta woaxe mɔ na mí be míatsɔ Yehowa ƒe vɔsa vɛ kpe ɖe Israelvi bubuawo ŋu le ɣeyiɣi ɖoɖo la dzi o?”
8 And Moses said unto them, Stand still, and I will hear what the LORD will command concerning you.
Mose gblɔ na wo be yeabia nya Yehowa tso woƒe xaxa la ŋuti.
9 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Yehowa ƒe nyametsotsoe nye:
10 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any man of you or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or [be] in a journey afar off, yet he shall keep the passover unto the LORD.
“Ne Israelviwo dometɔ siwo li fifia alo siwo anɔ dzidzime siwo ava va me la gblẽ kɔ ɖo na wo ɖokuiwo le Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ƒe ɣeyiɣi me, to asikaka ame kuku aɖe ŋu me, alo ne wozɔ mɔ, eye womate ŋu anɔ wo nɔviwo dome o la, ele be woaɖu Yehowa ƒe Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la kokoko. Woawo aɖui le ɣleti ɖeka megbe,
11 The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, [and] eat it with unleavened bread and bitter [herbs].
le ɣleti evelia ƒe ŋkeke wuienelia gbe. Woadze ŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu gɔme tso gbe ma gbe ƒe fiẽ. Woaɖu alẽvi la ɣe ma ɣi kple abolo maʋamaʋã kple amagbe veve.
12 They shall leave none of it unto the morning, nor break any bone of it: according to all the ordinances of the passover they shall keep it.
Mele be woagblẽ nuɖuɖu la ƒe ɖeke ɖi ŋu nake ɖe edzi o, eye womagbã alẽvi la ƒe ƒu aɖeke o. Woazɔ ɖe Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu ƒe sewo nu pɛpɛpɛ.
13 But the man that [is] clean, and is not in a journey, and forbeareth to keep the passover, even the same soul shall be cut off from among his people: because he brought not the offering of the LORD in his appointed season, that man shall bear his sin.
“Ke ame sia ame, si megblẽ kɔ ɖo na eɖokui o, eye mezɔ mɔ hã o, gake wògbe meɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la le ɣeyiɣi ɖoɖo la dzi o la, woaɖee le Israelviwo ƒe ha me le ale si wògbe be yemasa vɔ na Yehowa le ɣeyiɣi ɖoɖo la dzi o ta. Eƒe nu vɔ̃ anɔ edzi.
14 And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the passover unto the LORD; according to the ordinance of the passover, and according to the manner thereof, so shall he do: ye shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the land.
Ne amedzro aɖe le mia dome, eye wòdi be yeaɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la na Yehowa la, ele nɛ be wòawɔ Ŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu ƒe sewo dzi pɛpɛpɛ. Se ɖeka koe li na ame sia ame.”
15 And on the day that the tabernacle was reared up the cloud covered the tabernacle, [namely], the tent of the testimony: and at even there was upon the tabernacle as it were the appearance of fire, until the morning.
Le gbe si gbe wotu agbadɔ la la, lilikpo la tsyɔ edzi. Le gbe ma gbe ƒe fiẽ la, lilikpo la trɔ hedze abe dzo bibi ene. Enɔ nenema le zã blibo la me.
16 So it was alway: the cloud covered it [by day], and the appearance of fire by night.
Aleae wònɔna azɔ: enyea lilikpo le ŋkeke me eye wòdzena abe dzo bibi ene le zã me.
17 And when the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle, then after that the children of Israel journeyed: and in the place where the cloud abode, there the children of Israel pitched their tents.
Ne lilikpo la ho la, Israelviwo dzea mɔ, ɖea zɔ va se ɖe afi si lilikpo la natɔ ɖo, eye woƒua asaɖa anyi ɖe afi ma.
18 At the commandment of the LORD the children of Israel journeyed, and at the commandment of the LORD they pitched: as long as the cloud abode upon the tabernacle they rested in their tents.
Wozɔ mɔ alea le Yehowa ƒe kpɔkplɔ te. Wotɔna ɖe afi si Yehowa ɖo na wo be woatɔ ɖo. Wonɔa afi ma ɣeyiɣi si lilikpo la tɔ ɖe afi ma.
19 And when the cloud tarried long upon the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the charge of the LORD, and journeyed not.
Ne enɔ anyi wòdidi la, woawo hã wonɔa anyi ɣeyiɣi didi ma ke. Ke ne enɔ anyi ŋkeke ʋɛ aɖewo ko la, ekema Israelviwo hã wonɔa anyi ŋkeke ʋɛ aɖewo ko, elabena nenemae Yehowa ɖo na wo.
20 And [so] it was, when the cloud was a few days upon the tabernacle; according to the commandment of the LORD they abode in their tents, and according to the commandment of the LORD they journeyed.
Ɣe aɖewo ɣi la, lilikpo la nɔa asaɖa la tame ŋkeke ʋɛ aɖewo ko; le Yehowa ƒe gbeɖeɖe nu la, woatsi asaɖa la me, eye le eƒe gbeɖeɖe nu la, woadze mɔ.
21 And [so] it was, when the cloud abode from even unto the morning, and [that] the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed: whether [it was] by day or by night that the cloud was taken up, they journeyed.
Ɣe aɖewo ɣi la, lilikpo la nɔa anyi tso fiẽ va se ɖe ŋdi ko, eye ne eho le ŋdi la, wodzea mɔ. Nenye le ŋkeke me alo zã me, ɣe sia ɣi si lilikpo la ho ko la, wodzea mɔ.
22 Or [whether it were] two days, or a month, or a year, that the cloud tarried upon the tabernacle, remaining thereon, the children of Israel abode in their tents, and journeyed not: but when it was taken up, they journeyed.
Ne lilikpo la nɔ agbadɔ la tame ŋkeke eve alo ɣleti ɖeka alo ƒe ɖeka la, Israelviwo nɔa asaɖa la me, eye womedzea mɔ o. Ke ne eho la, wodzea mɔ.
23 At the commandment of the LORD they rested in the tents, and at the commandment of the LORD they journeyed: they kept the charge of the LORD, at the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
Le Yehowa ƒe gbeɖeɖe nu la, woƒua asaɖa anyi, eye le Yehowa ƒe gbeɖeɖe nu la, wodzea mɔ. Wowɔa Yehowa ƒe gbe dzi le se si wòde to Mose dzi la nu.
