Numbers 4
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron se:
2 “Take a census of the sons of Kohath from the midst of the sons of Levi, by their families, by the house of their fathers;
“Kan Kohatfo no dodow a wɔwɔ Lewifo no abusua mu.
3 from a son of thirty years and upward, even until a son of fifty years, everyone going in to the host, to do work in the Tent of Meeting.
Saa nnipakan yi bɛyɛ mmarima nko ara a wɔadi fi mfe aduasa kosi aduonum a wobetumi ayɛ adwuma wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan mu.
4 This [is] the service of the sons of Kohath in the Tent of Meeting [for] the most holy things:
“Kohat mma no dwumadi ne sɛ wɔbɛhwɛ akronkronne no so wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu.
5 when Aaron and his sons have come in, in the journeying of the camp, and have taken down the veil of the hanging, and have covered the Ark of the Testimony with it,
Sɛ wɔretu afi atenae hɔ a, Aaron ne ne mma mmarima na wobedi kan akɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu akɔfa nkataanim no de akata adaka no ho.
6 then they have put a covering of tachash skin on it, and have spread a garment completely of blue above, and have placed its poles.
Afei, wɔde abirekyi nhoma bɛkata nkataanim no ho na wɔde ntama tuntum akata abirekyi nhoma no ho na wɔde nnua a wɔde soa adaka no ahyehyɛ ne nkaa no mu.
7 And they spread a garment of blue over the table of the presence, and have put the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and the cups of the drink-offering on it, and the bread of continuity is on it,
“Afei, wɔmfa ntama tuntum nsɛw ɔpon a Daa Daa Brodo no da so no so; na wɔmfa mprɛte, nsanka, ne adidi nkankyee ne ɔnom afɔre nkuruwa no; brodo no ngu ntama no so ara.
8 and they have spread a garment of scarlet over them, and have covered it with a covering of tachash skin, and have placed its poles,
Wɔde ntama kɔkɔɔ bɛkata so na wɔasan de abirekyi nhoma akata ntama kɔkɔɔ no so. Na afei, wɔde nnua a wɔde bɛsoa no ahyehyɛ ɔpon no mu.
9 and have taken a garment of blue, and have covered the lampstand of the lamp, and its lights, and its snuffers, and its snuff-dishes, and all its oil vessels with which they minister to it;
“Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ntama tuntum kata kaneadua no, akanea no, adabaw no, nkuku apampaa no ne ngo tumpan no ho.
10 and they have put it and all its vessels into a covering of tachash skin, and have put [it] on the bar.
Saa nneɛma yi nyinaa nso wɔde abirekyi nhoma a ɛyɛ den bɛkata ho na wɔde nea wɔakyekyere no nyinaa abegu ɔpon no so.
11 And they spread a garment of blue over the golden altar, and have covered it with a covering of tachash skin, and have placed its poles,
“Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ntama tuntum kata sikakɔkɔɔ afɔremuka no so na wɔsan de abirekyi nhoma kata so bio na wɔde nnua a wɔde soa no hyehyɛ afɔremuka no mu.
12 and have taken all the vessels of ministry with which they minister in the holy place, and have put [them] into a garment of blue, and have covered them with a covering of tachash skin, and have put [them] on the bar,
“Hyiadan no mu som no ho nneɛma a aka no nyinaa, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ntama bibiri kyekyere ho a wɔde abirekyi nhoma asan akyekyere ho na wɔde ato mpata a wɔde soa no so.
13 and have removed the ashes of the altar, and have spread a garment of purple over it,
“Ɛsɛ sɛ wotu nsõ no nyinaa fi afɔremuka no mu gu, na wɔde ntama kɔkɔɔ kyekyere ho.
14 and have put on it all its vessels with which they minister on it—the censers, the hooks, and the shovels, and the bowls, all the vessels of the altar—and have spread a covering of tachash skin on it, and have placed its poles.
Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde afɔremuka no ho ɔsom nneɛma nyinaa gu ntama no so. Saa nneɛma no ne nkankyee a wɔnoa mu, adinam, sofi, ne nkankyee a wɔde nsu a wɔde pete gu mu. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde abirekyi nhoma kata ne nyinaa so na wɔde nnua a wɔde soa no gu faako a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde gu.
15 And Aaron has finished—his sons also—covering the holy place, and all the vessels of the holy place, in the journeying of the camp, and afterward the sons of Kohath come in to carry [it], and they do not come to the holy thing, lest they have died; these [things are] the burden of the sons of Kohath in the Tent of Meeting.
“Sɛ Aaron ne ne mma mmarima no wie kronkronbea hɔ nneɛma no anoboa a, Kohat ne nʼabusuafo bɛba abɛsoa akɔ baabiara a wɔretu nneɛma akɔ. Nanso wonni ho kwan sɛ wɔde wɔn nsa ka nneɛma a ɛho tew no bi. Wɔyɛ saa a, wobewuwu. Ɛsɛ sɛ Kohat mmabarima no soa nneɛma a ɛwɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu no.
16 And the oversight of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, [is] the oil of the lamp, and the spice-incense, and the present of continuity, and the anointing oil, the oversight of all the Dwelling Place and of all that [is] in it, in the sanctuary and in its vessels.”
“Aaron babarima Eleasar a ɔyɛ ɔsɔfo no na ɔbɛhwɛ ngo a wɔde bɛsɔ kanea, nnuhuam, daa aduan a wɔde bɔ afɔre, ɔsra ngo ne Ahyiae Ntamadan no nyinaa so. Biribiara a ɛwɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu no nso, ɔbɛhwɛ so.”
17 And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron se,
18 “You do not cut off the tribe of the families of the Kohathite from the midst of the Levites;
“Monhwɛ sɛ wɔrentwa Kohatfo abusuakuw no mfi Lewifo mu.
19 but do this for them, and they have lived and do not die in their drawing near [to] the Holy of Holies: Aaron and his sons go in, and have set them, each man to his service, and to his burden,
Sɛ wɔresoa nneɛma a ɛho tew no a, nea ɛsɛ sɛ wɔyɛ a wɔrenwuwu ni: Ɛsɛ sɛ Aaron ne ne mma mmarima no ne wɔn kɔ hɔ kɔkyerɛ wɔn ade a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔn mu biara soa.
20 and they do not go in to see when the holy thing is swallowed, lest they have died.”
Ɛnsɛ sɛ Kohatfo no kɔ hɔ kɔhwɛ akronkronne no koraa, na wɔanwuwu.”
21 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
22 “Also take a census of the sons of Gershon by the house of their fathers, by their families;
“Kan Gerson asefo a wɔfra Lewifo abusua mu no,
23 from a son of thirty years and upward, until a son of fifty years, you number them—everyone who is going in to serve the host, to do the service in the Tent of Meeting.
fi mmarima a wɔadi mfe aduasa kosi aduonum a wobetumi ayɛ adwuma kronkron wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan mu hɔ no so.
24 This [is] the service of the families of the Gershonite, to serve and for burden:
“Gerson mmusua no dwuma a wobedi ni:
25 and they have carried the curtains of the Dwelling Place, and the Tent of Meeting, its covering, and the covering of the tachash [skin] which [is] on it above, and the veil at the opening of the Tent of Meeting,
Wɔbɛsoa ntama a etwa Ahyiae Ntamadan mu hɔ, Ahyiae Ntamadan no ankasa ne nea ɛkata ho, abirekyi nhoma nkuruso ne ntama a ɛsɛn Ahyiae Ntamadan no ano no.
26 and the hangings of the court, and the veil at the opening of the gate of the court which [is] by the Dwelling Place, and by the altar all around, and their cords, and all the vessels of their service, and all that is made for them—and they have served.
Afei, wɔbɛsoa nkataho a ɛkata adiwo hɔ fasu no ho no. Wɔbɛsoa ntama a etwa adiwo hɔ kwan no ano ne afɔremuka ne Ahyiae Ntamadan no ntam no. Wɔbɛsoa afɔremuka no, ntampehama ne nea ɛkeka ho nyinaa. Wɔn na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhwɛ twe eyinom nyinaa.
27 By the command of Aaron and his sons is all the service of the sons of the Gershonite, in all their burden and in all their service; and you have laid a charge on them concerning the charge of all their burden.
Aaron anaa ne mmabarima no bi tumi ma Gerson asefo no bi dwuma di.
28 This [is] the service of the families of the sons of the Gershonite in the Tent of Meeting; and their charge [is] under the hand of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.
Eyi ne Gersonfo no adwuma wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu. Ɛsɛ sɛ wodi Aaron ba Itamar a ɔyɛ ɔsɔfo no nan ase.
29 The sons of Merari, by their families, by the house of their fathers—you number them;
“Kan Merari asefo a wɔfra Lewifo abusua mu no.
30 from a son of thirty years and upward even to a son of fifty years, you number them—everyone who is going in to the host, to do the service of the Tent of Meeting.
Kan mmarima a wɔadi mfe aduasa kosi aduonum so a wobetumi ayɛ adwuma wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan mu hɔ.
31 And this [is] the charge of their burden, of all their service in the Tent of Meeting: the boards of the Dwelling Place, and its bars, and its pillars, and its sockets,
Sɛ wɔpagyaw Ahyiae Ntamadan no a, wɔn na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsoa ne nnyinaso, nnua a esisi mu, ne nsisiso,
32 and the pillars of the court all around, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords, of all their vessels, and of all their service; and you number the vessels of the charge of their burden by name.
mpuran a wɔde yɛɛ adiwo hɔ afasu no ne ne nsisiso, nnyinaso, ntampehama ne biribiara a wɔde di ho dwuma. Fa dwumadi ahorow no hyɛ nnipa a wobɛbobɔ wɔn din no nsa.
33 This [is] the service of the families of the sons of Merari, for all their service, in the Tent of Meeting, by the hand of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.”
Merari asefo no, Aaron babarima Itamar na ɔbɛhwɛ wɔn so.”
34 And Moses numbers—Aaron also, and the princes of the congregation—the sons of the Kohathite, by their families, and by the house of their fathers,
Enti Mose ne Aaron ne mpanyimfo no bi kɔkan Kohatfo
35 from a son of thirty years and upward even to a son of fifty years, everyone who is going in to the host, for service in the Tent of Meeting,
a mmarima a wɔadi mfe aduasa kosi aduonum nyinaa a wobetumi ayɛ Ahyiae Ntamadan mu adwuma ka ho,
36 and their numbered ones, by their families, are two thousand seven hundred and fifty.
na wohuu sɛ wɔn nyinaa dodow yɛ mpem abien ne ahanson aduonum.
37 These [are] those numbered of the families of the Kohathite, everyone who is serving in the Tent of Meeting, whom Moses and Aaron numbered by the command of YHWH, by the hand of Moses.
Eyinom ne Kohat asefo dodow a na wɔsom wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu Wɔyɛɛ eyinom nyinaa de dii Awurade ahyɛde a ɔmaa Mose no so.
38 And those numbered of the sons of Gershon, by their families, and by the house of their fathers,
Wɔkan Gersonfo no mmusua ne wɔn mmusuakuw.
39 from a son of thirty years and upward even to a son of fifty years, everyone who is going in to the host, for service in the Tent of Meeting,
Wɔkan mmarima a wɔadi mfe aduasa kosi aduonum a wobetumi ayɛ adwuma wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu.
40 even their numbered ones, by their families, by the house of their fathers, are two thousand and six hundred and thirty.
Wɔn nyinaa dodow yɛɛ mpem abien ahansia ne aduasa.
41 These [are] those numbered of the families of the sons of Gershon, everyone who is serving in the Tent of Meeting, whom Moses and Aaron numbered by the command of YHWH.
Enti na Gersonfo a wɔfata sɛ wɔsom wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu no nyinaa dodow ne no. Mose ne Aaron na wɔkan wɔn sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ wɔn no.
42 And those numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, by their families, by the house of their fathers,
Merarifo no nso, wɔkan wɔn mmusua ne wɔn mmusuakuw.
43 from a son of thirty years and upward even to a son of fifty years, everyone who is going in to the host, for service in the Tent of Meeting,
Wɔkan wɔn mmarima a wɔadi mfe aduasa kosi aduonum a wɔfata sɛ wɔyɛ adwuma wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu.
44 even their numbered ones, by their families, are three thousand and two hundred.
Wɔn nyinaa dodow yɛɛ mpem abiɛsa ne ahannu.
45 These [are] those numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron numbered by the command of YHWH, by the hand of Moses.
Enti Merarifo a wɔfata sɛ wɔsom wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu no nyinaa dodow ne no. Mose ne Aaron na wɔkan wɔn sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
46 All those numbered, whom Moses numbered—Aaron also, and the princes of Israel—of the Levites, by their families, and by the house of their fathers,
Enti Mose ne Aaron ne Israel mpanyimfo nam Lewifo no mmusua ne wɔn afi so kan wɔn nyinaa.
47 from a son of thirty years and upward even to a son of fifty years, everyone who is going in to do the work of the service, even the service of burden in the Tent of Meeting,
Mmarima a na wɔadi fi mfe aduasa kosi mfe aduonum no nyinaa a na wɔfata sɛ wɔyɛ adwuma wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu hɔ no ne wɔn a wɔbɛsoa akɔ no
48 even their numbered ones are eight thousand and five hundred and eighty;
dodow yɛ mpem ahanwɔtwe ahannum ne aduɔwɔtwe.
49 he has numbered them by the command of YHWH, by the hand of Moses, each man by his service, and by his burden, with his numbered ones, as YHWH has commanded Moses.
Awurade hyɛ a ɔhyɛɛ Mose no nti na wɔnam so kan nnipa no.
