< Leviticus 27 >
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, Whosoever shall vow a vow as the valuation of his soul for the Lord,
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, ‘Sɛ onipa bi hyɛ bɔ sɛ ɔde obi bɛma Awurade a, na sɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɔtua sika mmom a,
3 the valuation of a male from twenty years old to sixty years old shall be his valuation shall be fifty didrachmas of silver by the standard of the sanctuary.
ɔbɛtua dwetɛ gram ahanum ne aduɔson ama ɔbarima a wadi mfeɛ aduonu kɔsi mfeɛ aduosia,
4 And the valuation of a female shall be thirty didrachmas.
sɛ ɔyɛ ɔbaa a wadi mfeɛ aduonu kɔsi aduosia a, wɔbɛtua dwetɛ gram ahasa ne aduanan,
5 And if it be from five years old to twenty, the valuation of a male shall be twenty didrachmas, and of a female ten didrachmas.
abarimaa a wadi mfeɛ enum kɔsi aduonu no nso wɔbɛtua dwetɛ gram ahanu ne aduasa. Sɛ ɔyɛ ɔbaa a, wɔbɛtua dwetɛ gram ɔha ne dunum.
6 And from a month old to five years old, the valuation of a male shall be five didrachmas, and of a female, three didrachmas of silver.
Abarimaa a wadi bosome kɔsi mfeɛ enum no wɔbɛtua dwetɛ gram 60; na abaayewa nso wɔatua dwetɛ gram 35.
7 And if from sixty year [old] and upward, if it be a male, his valuation shall be fifteen didrachmas of silver, and if a female, ten didrachmas.
Ɔbarima a wadi boro mfeɛ aduosia no wɔbɛtua dwetɛ gram ɔha aduɔson; na ɔbaa nso wɔatua dwetɛ gram ɔha ne dunum.
8 And if the man be too poor for the valuation, he shall stand before the priest; and the priest shall value him: according to what the man who has vowed can afford, the priest shall value him.
Na sɛ obi yɛ ohiani a ɔrentumi ntua saa sika yi a, ɔde saa onipa no bɛba ɔsɔfoɔ anim, na ɔsɔfoɔ no akyerɛ no sika a ɔbɛtumi atua.
9 And if it be from the cattle that are offered as a gift to the Lord, whoever shall offer one of these to the Lord, it shall be holy.
“‘Sɛ ɔde aboa hyɛ bɔ sɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛfata ma Awurade a, saa aboa no a ɔde ama Awurade no bɛyɛ kronkron.
10 He shall not change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; and if he do at all change it, a beast for a beast, it and the substitute shall be holy.
Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔsesa saa aboa no. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔde deɛ ɛyɛ sesa deɛ ɛnyɛ anaa sɛ ɔde deɛ ɛnyɛ sesa deɛ ɛyɛ. Sɛ ɛba sɛ wɔyɛ saa nsesayɛ yi a, wɔbɛfa no sɛ mmoa mmienu no nyinaa ho te.
11 And if it be any unclean beast, of which none are offered as a gift to the Lord, he shall set the beast before the priest.
Sɛ aboa a ɔde rema Awurade no ho nte na ɛmfata sɛ wɔde yɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ ma Awurade a, ɛsɛ sɛ ne wura no de brɛ ɔsɔfoɔ.
12 And the priest shall make a valuation between the good and the bad, and accordingly as the priest shall value it, so shall it stand.
Ɔno na ɔbɛhwɛ sɛ aboa no di mu anaa sɛ ɔnte saa, na wakyerɛ sika dodoɔ a ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtua de si aboa no anan.
13 And if [the worshipper] will at all redeem it, he shall add the fifth part to its value.
Sɛ aboa no yɛ deɛ ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde no bɔ afɔdeɛ nanso onipa a ɔde no reba no pɛ sɛ ɔsane gye nʼadeɛ a, ɔbɛtua sika ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka ɛboɔ a ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛtwa ama no sɛ ɔntua no ho.
14 And whatever man shall consecrate his house as holy to the Lord, the priest shall make a valuation of it between the good and the bad: as the priest shall value it, so shall it stand.
“‘Sɛ obi de ne fie ma Awurade na sɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɔsane gye a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛsese ne boɔ a ɔnte so,
15 And if he that has sanctified it should redeem his house, he shall add to it the fifth part of the money of the valuation, and it shall be his.
na saa onipa no atua, asane atua ɛbo korɔ no ara ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka ho ansa na efie no abɛyɛ ne dea bio.
16 And if a man should hallow to the Lord a part of the field of his possession, then the valuation shall be according to its seed, fifty didrachmas of silver for a homer of barley.
“‘Sɛ ɔbarima bi pɛ sɛ ɔde nʼabusua asase fa bi bɔ afɔdeɛ ma Awurade a, wɔbɛgyina aba kɛntɛnma dodoɔ a ɛbɛhia sɛ wɔbɛdua wɔ so no so atwa asase no boɔ; aba kɛntɛnma biara boɔ yɛ dwetɛ gram ahanum ne aduɔson.
17 And if he should sanctify his field from the year of release, it shall stand according to his valuation.
Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ mu no, sɛ obi de nʼafuo kyɛ a, ne boɔ no rensesa.
18 And if he should sanctify his field in the latter time after the release, the priest shall reckon to him the money for the remaining years, until the [next] year of release, and it shall be deducted as an equivalent from his full valuation.
Na sɛ ɔde asase no ma wɔ Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no akyi a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛgyina mfeɛ a aka ansa na Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ a ɛdi so no so asese ne boɔ, na wɔbɛtumi ate so.
19 And if he that sanctified the field would redeem it, he shall add to its value the fifth part of the money, and it shall be his.
Na sɛ ɔbarima no pɛ sɛ ɔgye nʼasase a, ɔsɔfoɔ no boɔ a ɔbɛbɔ no, ɔbɛtua ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka ho ansa na asase no abɛyɛ ne dea bio.
20 And if he do not redeem the field, but should sell the field to another man, he shall not after redeem it.
Na sɛ nso ɔyɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔmpɛ sɛ ɔgye asase no bio, anaasɛ sɛ watɔn asase no ama obi foforɔ a, ɛnneɛ wɔrentumi nnye bio.
21 But the field shall be holy to the Lord after the release, as separated land; the priest shall have possession of it.
Sɛ wɔdane asase no ma wɔ Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no mu a, ɛbɛyɛ asase kronkron. Wɔde ato hɔ ama Awurade. Ɛbɛyɛ asɔfoɔ no agyapadeɛ.
22 And if he should consecrate to the Lord of a field which he has bought, which is not of the field of his possession,
“‘Sɛ obi bi de asase a watɔ ma Awurade, na sɛ asase no nyɛ nʼabusua asase a,
23 the priest shall reckon to him the full valuation from the year of release, and he shall pay the valuation in that day [as] holy to the Lord.
ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛgyina mfeɛ a aka ama wɔadi Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no so asese ne boɔ. Ɛsɛ sɛ onipa ko no tua ɛboɔ no ɛda no ara, na ɛyɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ kronkron ma Awurade.
24 And in the year of release the land shall be restored to the man of whom the other bought it, whose the possession of the land was.
Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no duru so a, asase no bɛsane akɔ deɛ ɔtɔneɛ no nkyɛn anaasɛ deɛ na ɔyɛ asase no wura no.
25 And every valuation shall be by holy weights: the didrachm shall be twenty oboli.
Wɔbɛsese ɛho ka no nyinaa wɔ nnwetɛbena a wɔgye wɔ hyiadan mu, a ɛyɛ gram dubaako.
26 And every firstborn which shall be produced among your cattle shall be the Lord's, and no man shall sanctify it: whether calf or sheep, it is the Lord's.
“‘Ɛnsɛ sɛ obiara de aboa bi abakan ma Awurade, ɛfiri sɛ abakan biara, sɛ ɔyɛ nantwie anaa odwan no, yɛ Awurade dea dada.
27 But if he should redeem an unclean beast, according to its valuation, then he shall add the fifth part to it, and it shall be his; and if he redeem it not, it shall be sold according to its valuation.
Sɛ ɔyɛ mmoa a wɔn ho nteɛ no bi a, onipa no bɛtumi atua ne boɔ no, na ɔde ɛboɔ no mu nkyɛmu enum mu baako aka ho. Sɛ onipa no antɔ bio deɛ a, wɔbɛtɔn aboa no sɛdeɛ ne boɔ teɛ.
28 And every dedicated thing which a man shall dedicate to the Lord of all that he has, whether man or beast, or of the field of his possession, he shall not sell it, nor redeem it: every devoted thing shall be most holy to the Lord.
“‘Adeɛ biara a wɔde ama Awurade no, sɛ ɛyɛ nnipa, mmoa anaa abusuasase no, ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔtɔn anaa wɔsane gye, ɛfiri sɛ, biribiara a ɛte saa no yɛ kronkron ma Awurade.
29 And whatever shall be dedicated of men, shall not be ransomed, but shall be surely put to death.
“‘Onipa biara a Awurade ayi no asi nkyɛn ama ɔsɛeɛ no, wɔmmfa biribi ntua ne tiri ka. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no.
30 Every tithe of the land, both of the seed of the land, and of the fruit of trees, is the Lord's, holy to the Lord.
“‘Asase no so nnɔbaeɛ nkyɛmu edu mu baako, sɛ ɛyɛ aburoo anaa aduaba no yɛ Awurade dea. Ɛyɛ kronkron.
31 And if a man should at all redeem his tithe, he shall add the fifth part to it, and it shall be his.
Sɛ obi pɛ sɛ ɔsane tɔ saa aduaba anaa aburoo no a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ne boɔ nkyɛmu enum mu baako ka ho.
32 And every tithe of oxen, and of sheep, and whatever may come in numbering under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to the Lord.
Anantwie ne nnwan no ntotosoɔ dudu nyinaa, aboa biara a ɔtɔ so edu a ɔfa odwanhwɛfoɔ nsam no yɛ kronkron ma Awurade.
33 You shall not change a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; and if you should at all change it, its equivalent also shall be holy, it shall not be redeemed.
Aboa a ɔtɔ so edu a wɔde bɛma Awurade no, wɔnhwɛ sɛ ɔyɛ anaa ɔnyɛ, na wɔmmfa biribiara nsi nʼananmu, ɛfiri sɛ, sɛ wɔde biribiara si ananmu a, ne nyinaa bɛyɛ kronkron, a obiara rentumi nnye bio.’”
34 These are the commandments which the Lord commanded Moses for the sons of Israel in mount Sina.
Yeinom ne mmara a Awurade de maa Mose wɔ Sinai Bepɔ so sɛ ɔnka nkyerɛ Israelfoɔ no.
