< Numbers 5 >

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Yei ne mmara a Awurade sane hyɛ maa Mose:
2 "Command the children of Israel that they put out of the camp every leper, and everyone who has an issue, and whoever is unclean by the dead.
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔpam akwatafoɔ nyinaa firi atenaeɛ hɔ. Wɔn a ekuro atutu wɔn ne wɔn a wɔde wɔn nsa akɔka efunu enti wɔn ho agu fi nyinaa no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔpam wɔn.
3 Both you shall put male and female outside of the camp; that they not defile their camp, in the midst of which I dwell."
Mmarima ne mmaa nyinaa ka ho. Yi wɔn nyinaa firi hɔ sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ na atenaeɛ hɔ a me ne mo bɛtena no ho rengu fi”.
4 The children of Israel did so, and put them out outside of the camp; as Jehovah spoke to Moses, so did the children of Israel.
Wɔdii Awurade mmara no so.
5 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
6 "Speak to the children of Israel: When a man or woman commits any sin that men commit, so as to trespass against Jehovah, and that soul is guilty;
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, sɛ ɔbarima o, ɔbaa o, ɔdi Awurade hwammɔ a, ɛyɛ bɔne.
7 then he shall confess his sin which he has done, and he shall make restitution for his guilt in full, and add to it the fifth part of it, and give it to him in respect of whom he has been guilty.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔka ne bɔne na adeɛ a ɔwiaeɛ no, ɔtua ho ka nyinaa na ɔsane de ɛho ka no nkyɛmu ɔha mu aduonu ka ho de ma onipa ko a ɔbɔɔ no korɔno no.
8 But if the man has no kinsman to whom restitution may be made for the guilt, the restitution for guilt which is made to Jehovah shall be the priest's; besides the ram of the atonement, by which atonement shall be made for him.
Na sɛ onipa ko a ɔyɛɛ no bɔne no awu na ɔnni obusuani biara a ɔbɛn no a wɔbɛtua ho ka ama no no a, ɛsɛ sɛ, sɛ ɔtua ka no ma ɔsɔfoɔ a, odwennini ka ho sɛ mpatadeɛ. Ɛyɛ Awurade dea.
9 Every heave offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they present to the priest, shall be his.
Akyɛdeɛ kronkron a Israelfoɔ de bɛkyɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no yɛ ne dea.
10 Every man's holy things shall be his: whatever any man gives the priest, it shall be his."
Ɔsɔfoɔ biara bɛfa akyɛdeɛ kronkron biara a ne nsa bɛka.”
11 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
12 "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them: If any man's wife goes astray, and is unfaithful to him,
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, sɛ ɔbarima bi yere kɔbɔ adwaman
13 and a man lies with her carnally, and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband, and is kept close, and she is defiled, and there is no witness against her, and she isn't taken in the act;
nanso ɔnhunu asɛm no mu nokorɛ na ɔnnya ɔdanseni
14 and the spirit of jealousy comes on him, and he is jealous of his wife, and she is defiled: or if the spirit of jealousy comes on him, and he is jealous of his wife, and she isn't defiled:
na ɔtwe ho ninkunu na ɔnte ne ho ase a,
15 then the man shall bring his wife to the priest, and shall bring her offering for her: the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal. He shall pour no oil on it, nor put frankincense on it, for it is a meal offering of jealousy, a meal offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to memory.
ɔbarima no de ne yere no bɛkɔ ɔsɔfoɔ anim a ɔbaa no ho afɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛyɛ atokosiam a wɔmfaa ohwam ngo mfraeɛ lita mmienu ka ho. Ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ ninkuntwe afɔrebɔ. Ɛno na ɛbɛma nokorɛ ada adie ama wɔahunu sɛ ɔbaa no di fɔ anaa ɔdi bem.
16 The priest shall bring her near, and set her before Jehovah;
“Ɔsɔfoɔ no de ɔbaa no bɛba Awurade anim,
17 and the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water.
na wasa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu mfuturo de afra nsuo kronkron a ɛgu asansuo kɛseɛ bi mu no.
18 The priest shall set the woman before Jehovah, and let the hair of the woman's head go loose, and put the meal offering of memorial in her hands, which is the meal offering of jealousy. The priest shall have in his hand the water of bitterness that brings a curse.
Ɔbɛsane ne ti a wakyekyere no na ɔde ninkunu afɔrebɔdeɛ no agu ne nsam de ahwɛ sɛ ɔbarima no nsusuiɛ no yɛ nokorɛ ampa ara anaasɛ ɛnyɛ nokorɛ. Ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛgyina nʼanim a ɔkura nsuo nwononwono a ɛde mmusuo ba no.
19 The priest shall cause her to swear, and shall tell the woman, 'If no man has lain with you, and if you haven't gone aside to uncleanness, being under your husband, be free from this water of bitterness that brings a curse.
Ɔbɛma no aka ntam sɛ ɔnnim asɛm no ho hwee na waka akyerɛ no sɛ, sɛ wo ne ɔbarima biara nnaeɛ ka wo kunu nko ara ho deɛ a, ɛnneɛ, wo ho nte mfiri nsuo nwononwono a ɛde mmusuo ba yi ho. Na sɛ woabɔ adwaman a, ɛnneɛ, Awurade bɛdome wo wɔ wo nkurɔfoɔ mu. Ɔbɛma wo srɛ aporɔ na wo yafunu ahono. Na ɔbaa no bɛka sɛ, ‘Aane, saa na ɛsɛ sɛ ɛba.’
20 But if you have gone astray, being under your husband, and if you are defiled, and some man has lain with you besides your husband:'
21 then the priest shall cause the woman to swear with the oath of cursing, and the priest shall tell the woman, 'Jehovah make you a curse and an oath among your people, when Jehovah allows your thigh to fall away, and your body to swell;
22 and this water that brings a curse will go into your bowels, and make your body swell, and your thigh fall away.' The woman shall say, 'Amen, Amen.'
23 "The priest shall write these curses on a scroll, and he shall blot them out into the water of bitterness.
“Ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛtwerɛ nnome yi nyinaa agu nwoma bi mu na wahohoro agu nsuo nwononwono no mu.
24 He shall make the woman drink the water of bitterness that causes the curse; and the water that causes the curse shall enter into her and become bitter.
Sɛ ɛsɛ sɛ ɔbaa no nom nsuo no na sɛ ɔnom wɔ ɛberɛ a wayɛ bɔne a, ɛyɛ nwononwononwono wɔ ne mu.
25 The priest shall take the meal offering of jealousy out of the woman's hand, and shall wave the meal offering before Jehovah, and bring it to the altar.
Afei, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛgye ninkunu afɔrebɔdeɛ no afiri ɔbaa no nsam na wahinhim no Awurade anim na ɔde akɔ afɔrebukyia no so.
26 The priest shall take a handful of the meal offering, as its memorial, and burn it on the altar, and afterward shall make the woman drink the water.
Ɔbɛsa ne nsabuo ma de asi ne nyinaa anan na wahye no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so na wama ɔbaa no anom nsuo no.
27 When he has made her drink the water, then it shall happen, if she is defiled, and has committed a trespass against her husband, that the water that causes the curse will enter into her and become bitter, and her body will swell, and her thigh will fall away: and the woman will be a curse among her people.
Sɛ ne ho agu fi na wabɔ adwaman no atia ne kunu a, nsuo a wanom no bɛyɛ nwononwononwono wɔ ne mu na ne yafunu ahono na ne srɛ aporɔ na wayɛ nnome wɔ ne nkurɔfoɔ mu.
28 If the woman isn't defiled, but is clean; then she shall be free and will conceive children.
Sɛ ɔyɛ kronn a ɔmmɔɔ adwaman a, wɔrenha no, na ɛrenkyɛre, ɔbɛnyinsɛn.
29 "This is the law of jealousy, when a wife, being under her husband, goes astray, and is defiled;
“Yei ne mmara a ɛfa ɔbaa a ne bra nyɛ na ne kunu twe ne ho ninkunu
30 or when the spirit of jealousy comes on a man, and he is jealous of his wife; then he shall set the woman before Jehovah, and the priest shall execute on her all this law.
de hwehwɛ mu hunu sɛ ɔdi ne kunu nokorɛ anaa ɔnni no nokorɛ no ho. Ɔde no bɛba Awurade anim na ɔsɔfoɔ no adi dwuma a wɔabobɔ so no nyinaa.
31 The man shall be free from iniquity, and that woman shall bear her iniquity."
Wɔrenni ne kunu no asɛm wɔ baabiara sɛ wama yare bɔne bi aba ne yere so, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ ɔno ara na ɔma ɛbaa saa.”
