28 The rest of the people, the priests, the Levites, the gatekeepers, the singers, the Nethinim, and all those who had separated themselves from the peoples of the lands to the law of God, their wives, their sons, and their daughters, everyone who had knowledge, and understanding?
Ame siawoe de asi nubabla la te ɖe dukɔ blibo la nu, elabena dukɔmeviwo, nunɔlawo, Levitɔwo, agbonudzɔlawo, hadzilawo, gbedoxɔmedɔwɔlawo kple ame bubuawo katã, ame siwo srɔ̃wo, viŋutsuwo, vinyɔnuwo, ame siwo tsi ate ŋu ase nu gɔme la, ɖe wo ɖokuiwo ɖe aga tso trɔ̃subɔla siwo le anyigba la dzi gbɔ ale be woasubɔ Mawu.
29 they joined with their brothers, their nobles, and entered into a curse, and into an oath, to walk in God's law, which was given by Moses the servant of God, and to observe and do all the commandments of Jehovah, and his ordinances and his statutes;
Ame siawo katã wɔ ɖeka kple Israelvi bubumewo, eye woɖe adzɔgbe be Mawu ƒe fiƒode nava wo dzi ne womewɔ Yehowa ƒe Se siwo wòde na wo to Mose, Mawu ƒe dɔla la dzi o, eye woɖe adzɔgbe be woalé Yehowa, woƒe Aƒetɔ la ƒe Sewo kple ɖoɖowo katã me ɖe asi.
30 and that we would not give our daughters to the peoples of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons;
“Míelɔ̃ ɖe edzi hã be míaɖe mɔ na mía vinyɔnuwo woaɖe amedzrowo o, eye nenema ke míaɖe mɔ mía viŋutsuwo hã naɖe wo vinyɔnuwo o.
31 and if the peoples of the land bring wares or any grain on the Sabbath day to sell, that we would not buy of them on the Sabbath, or on a holy day; and that we would forego the seventh year, and the exaction of every debt.
“Míelɔ̃ ɖe edzi be ne trɔ̃subɔla siwo le anyigba la dzi anɔ adzɔnu kple agblemenuku alo nu bubu aɖe dzram le Dzudzɔgbe alo ŋkeke kɔkɔe bubu aɖe dzi la, míagbe eƒeƒle.

32 Also we made ordinances for ourselves, to charge ourselves yearly with the third part of a shekel for the service of the house of our God;
“Míelɔ̃ ɖe edzi be míadzɔ nu ƒe sia ƒe na gbedoxɔ la, ale be ga nasɔ gbɔ ɣe sia ɣi hena mía Mawu la ƒe gbedoxɔ la dzikpɔkpɔ,
33 for the show bread, and for the continual meal offering, and for the continual burnt offering, for the Sabbaths, for the new moons, for the set feasts, and for the holy things, and for the sin offerings to make atonement for Israel, and for all the work of the house of our God.
elabena míehiã nu tɔxɛwo na Ŋkumeɖobolo, nuɖuvɔsawo kple numevɔsawo na Dzudzɔgbewo, Ɣleti yeye ƒe ŋkekenyuiwo kple Ŋkekenyui siwo míeɖuna ƒe sia ƒe, na vɔsa kɔkɔewo, na avuléle ɖe Israel nu kple dɔwɔwɔ le gbedoxɔ la me.
34 We cast lots, the priests, the Levites, and the people, for the wood offering, to bring it into the house of our God, according to our fathers' houses, at times appointed, year by year, to burn on the altar of Jehovah our God, as it is written in the law;
“Míada akɔ be míanya ƒe sia ƒe ƒe ɣeyiɣi si dzi nunɔlawo, Levitɔwo kple kplɔlawo ƒe ƒometɔwo ana nake si ŋu dɔ woawɔ le Yehowa, mía Mawu la ƒe vɔsamlekpui dzi abe ale si woŋlɔe ɖe Se la me ene.
35 and to bring the first fruits of our ground, and the first fruits of all fruit of all kinds of trees, year by year, to the house of Jehovah;
“Míelɔ̃ ɖe edzi hã be míatsɔ míaƒe agblemenuku ɖe sia ɖe ƒe gbãtɔ, eɖanye nu si ɖona le to me alo tsena ɖe kutsetsetiwo kple amitiwo dzi o, ayi Yehowa ƒe aƒe me.
36 also the firstborn of our sons, and of our livestock, as it is written in the law, and the firstborn of our herds and of our flocks, to bring to the house of our God, to the priests who minister in the house of our God;
“Abe ale si woŋlɔe ɖe Se la me ene la, míelɔ̃ ɖe edzi be míatsɔ míaƒe viŋutsu tsitsitɔwo kple míaƒe nyiwo, alẽwo kple gbɔ̃wo ƒe ŋgɔgbeviwo ana Yehowa. Míatsɔ wo na nunɔla siwo le subɔsubɔdɔ wɔm le gbedoxɔ la me.
37 and that we should bring the first fruits of our coarse meal, our contributions, the fruit of every tree, the new wine and the oil to the priests to the storerooms of the house of our God; and the tithes of our land to the Levites, for the Levites take the tithes in all the cities where we work.
“Kpe ɖe esiawo ŋu la, woatsɔ nuawo adzra ɖo ɖe míaƒe Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la me. Nu siawoe nye míaƒe bli kple agblemenuku siwo ɖi bli la ƒe nyuitɔwo, míaƒe nudzɔdzɔwo, míaƒe kutsetse gbãtɔwo kple míaƒe wain yeye kple ami ƒe gbãtɔwo.

38 The priest the son of Aaron shall be with the Levites, when the Levites take tithes: and the Levites shall bring up the tithe of the tithes to the house of our God, to the rooms, into the treasure house.
Nunɔla Aron ƒe dzidzimevi ɖeka anɔ Levitɔwo gbɔ ne wole nuwo ƒe ewoliawo xɔm, eye Levitɔwo atsɔ nu ewolia si woxɔ la ƒe ewolia ayi gbedoxɔ me, adzra ɖo ɖe nudzraɖoƒe la.
39 For the children of Israel and the descendants of Levi shall bring the wave offering of the grain, of the new wine, and of the oil, to the rooms, where are the vessels of the sanctuary, and the priests who minister, and the gatekeepers, and the singers. We will not forsake the house of our God.
Le Se la nu la, ele be Israelviwo kple Levitɔwo natsɔ woƒe nunana siwo nye bli kple bubuawo, wain yeye kple ami la, ayi gbedoxɔ la me, eye woatsɔ wo ade kɔkɔeƒe ƒe nuwo me hena nunɔla siwo le subɔsubɔ wɔm kple agbonudzɔlawo kple hadzilawo ƒe ŋu dɔ wɔwɔ. “Ale mí katã míelɔ̃ ɖe edzi be míagblẽ míaƒe Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la ɖi o.”
