< Numbers 26 >
1 After the plague, Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out] and to Eleazar [Help of God] the son of Aaron [Light-bringer] the priest, saying,

2 “Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails], from twenty years old and upward, by their fathers’ houses, all who are able to go out to war in Israel [God prevails].”
“Monkan Israelfoɔ mmarima a wɔadi mfeɛ aduonu ne deɛ ɛboro saa nyinaa na monhwɛ dodoɔ a wɔbɛtumi akɔ ɔsa wɔ abusua biara mu.”
3 Moses [Drawn out] and Eleazar [Help of God] the priest spoke with them in the plains of Moab [From father] by the Jordan [Descender] at Jericho [Fragrant, Moon], saying,

4 “Take a census, from twenty years old and upward; as Adonai enjoined Moses [Drawn out] and the children of Israel [God prevails].” These are those that came out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
“Monkan mmarima a wɔwɔ Israel a wɔadi mfeɛ aduonu ne deɛ ɛboro saa sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.” Sɛdeɛ nnipakan no a ɛfa Israel mma a wɔfiri Misraim baeɛ no ano kɔsiiɛ nie.

“Kyekyɛ asase no ma mmusua no sɛdeɛ wɔn dodoɔ teɛ.
