Leviticus 27
1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
2 Speak unto the sons of Israel and thou shall say unto them—When any man would consecrate and pay a vow by thine estimate of lives unto Yahweh,
“Ƒo nu na Israelviwo, eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Ne ame aɖe ɖe adzɔgbe tɔxɛ aɖe be yeatsɔ ame aɖewo ana Yehowa to ga home si dze be woaxe ɖe wo ta me la,
3 then shall, thine estimate be for the male from twenty years of age even to sixty years of age, yea thine estimate shall be—fifty shekels of silver by the shekel of the sanctuary;
ekema ɖe ŋutsu si xɔ tso ƒe blaeve yi blaade nu la ana klosalo kpekpeme kilogram afã ɖe Kɔkɔeƒe la ƒe nudanu nu.
4 but if it be, a female, then shall thine estimate be thirty shekels.
Nenye be nyɔnue la, ana klosalo kpekpeme kilogram ƒe mama etɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka.
5 And, if it be from five years of age even unto twenty years of age, then shall thine estimate be for the male, twenty shekels, —and, for the female, ten shekels.
Ɖe ŋutsuvi si xɔ tso ƒe atɔ̃ va se ɖe blaeve nu la, ana klosalo kilogram ƒe mama atɔ̃ ƒe ɖeka, eye ɖe nyɔnuvi si xɔ tso ƒe atɔ̃ va se ɖe blaeve nu la, ana klosalo gram alafa ɖeka kple ewo.
6 And, if it be from a month old even unto five years old, then shall thine estimate be—for the male, five shekels of silver, —and, for the female, thine estimate [shall be] three shekels of silver.
Woaxe gram blaatɔ̃ vɔ atɔ̃ ɖe ŋutsuvi si xɔ tso ɣleti ɖeka va se ɖe ƒe atɔ̃ la nu, eye woaxe klosalo gram blaetɔ̃ vɔ atɔ̃ ɖe nyɔnuvi si xɔ tso ɣleti ɖeka va se ɖe ƒe atɔ̃ la nu.
7 And if it be from sixty years of age and upwards, if a male, then shall thine estimate be fifteen shekels, —and, for the female, ten shekels.
Ŋutsu si xɔ wu ƒe blaade la axe klosalo gram blaatɔ̃ vɔ atɔ̃, eye nyɔnu si xɔ wu ƒe blaade la axe klosalo gram blaetɔ̃ vɔ atɔ̃.
8 But if he be, too poor, for thine estimate, then shall he present himself before the priest, and the priest shall estimate him, —according to that which the hand of him who would vow can attain to, shall the priest estimate him.
Ke ne ame si le adzɔgbe la ɖem da ahe ale gbegbe be mate ŋu axe fe si wòle be wòaxe o la, woakplɔe va nunɔla la gbɔ, eya kple nunɔla la naɖo aɖaŋu, eye wòaxe nu si nunɔla la aɖo nɛ la.
9 And if it be a beast whereof men may bring near an oblation unto Yahweh, all that whereof aught is given to Yahweh, shall be holy.
“‘Ke ne nu si amea tsɔ ɖe adzɔgbee la nye lã si dzi woda asi ɖo be woatsɔ asa vɔe na Yehowa la, ne wotsɔ lã sia ɖe adzɔgbee la, ele kɔkɔe na Yehowa.
10 He shall not alter it, nor change it—good for bad or bad for good, —but if he, do, change beast for beast, then shall, both it and what was given in exchange for it be holy.
Mele be adzɔgbeɖela la natrɔ eƒe ta me o; matrɔ ta me le etsɔtsɔ na Yehowa ŋu loo alo atsɔ nu nyui aɖo gbegblẽa teƒe alo atsɔ gbegblẽa aɖo nyuia teƒe o. Ne etrɔ ta me la, ekema lã si wòɖɔli kple esi wòtsɔ ɖɔlii siaa le kɔkɔe.
11 And, if it be any unclean beast whereof men may not bring near an oblation to Yahweh, then shall he present the beast before the priest:
Ke ne lã si wòɖe adzɔgbe be yeatsɔ asa vɔe nye lã makɔmakɔ, lã si womaxɔ abe vɔsa na Yehowa ene o la, ele be wòatsɔ lã la ayi na nunɔla,
12 and the priest shall estimate it, whether it is good or bad, —according to thine estimate, O priest, so, shall it be.
ame si akpɔe ne lã la nyo alo menyo o. Ga home si ƒe asi nunɔla la ado ɖe lã la ŋu la, nenema ko wòanɔ.
13 But if he should please to redeem, it, then shall he add the fifth part thereof unto thine estimate.
Ne lã la nye lã si woate ŋu atsɔ asa vɔe, gake amea di be yeaxe fe ɖe eteƒe la, ekema axe ga home si nunɔla la agblɔ nɛ kple ga home la ƒe mama atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka akpe ɖe eŋu.
14 And, when, any man, would hallow his house to be holy unto Yahweh, then shall the priest estimate it, whether it is good or bad, —as the priest shall estimate it, so, shall it stand.
“‘Ne ame aɖe tsɔ eƒe aƒe abe nu si ŋuti kɔ ene na Yehowa la, nunɔla la akpɔ aƒea ƒe nyonyo alo manyomanyo dzi ɖa. Ga home si ƒe asi nunɔla la ado ɖe aƒea ŋu la, nenema ko wòanɔ.
15 But, if he that halloweth it, would redeem his house, then shall he add the fifth part of the silver of thine estimate thereunto and it shall be his.
Ne ame si tsɔ eƒe aƒe na agaxɔe la, ele nɛ be wòatsɔ ga home la ƒe atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka akpe ɖe ga home la ŋu, eye aƒea agazu etɔ.
16 And if of the field of his possession any man would hallow unto Yahweh, then shall thine estimate be according to the seed thereof, —the seed of a homer of barley, at fifty shekels of silver.
“‘Ne ame aɖe tsɔ eƒe anyigba ƒe akpa aɖe na Yehowa la, do asi ɖe eŋu ɖe eƒe lolome kple nuku agbɔsɔsɔ si woate ŋu aƒã ɖe edzi la nu. Anyigba si dzi woate ŋu aƒã lu kilogram blaeve ɖo la naxɔ klosaloga ewo.
17 If, from the year of jubilee, he would hallow his field, according to thine estimate, shall it stand.
Ne ame aɖe tsɔ eƒe anyigba na Yehowa le Aseyetsoƒe la me la, ekema nutɔ la naxe ga home la katã.
18 But if after the jubilee he would hallow his field, then shall the priest reckon to him the silver, according to the years that remain, until the year of the jubilee, —and it shall be abated from thine estimate.
Ke ne etsɔe na le Aseyetsoƒe la megbe la, ekema ga home si wòaxe la aku ɖe ƒe siwo susɔ hafi Aseyetsoƒe bubu nagaɖo la ŋu.
19 But, if he that hath hallowed it should be pleased to redeem, the field, then shall he add the fifth part of the silver of thine estimate thereunto and it shall be assured to him.
Ne amea di be yeagaxɔ anyigba la la, ekema ele nɛ be wòaxe ga home si nunɔla la ɖo nɛ kple ga home la ƒe mama atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka. Ekema anyigba la agazu etɔ.
20 But if he will not redeem the field, but have sold the field to another man, it shall be redeemable no longer;
“‘Ke ne eɖo be yemagbugbɔ anyigba la axɔ o, alo wòdzrae na ame bubu aɖe, eye wòna anyigba la zu Yehowa tɔ le Aseyetsoƒe la me la, ekema magate ŋu axɔe o.
21 so shall the field, when it goeth out in the jubilee, be holy unto Yahweh as a devoted, field, —to the priest, shall belong the possession thereof.
Ne woɖe asi le anyigba la ŋu le Aseyetsoƒe la me la, ekema anyigba la azu Yehowa tɔ abe anyigba si wotsɔ nɛ ene. Woatsɔe na nunɔla la.
22 If, however, a field that he hath bought, which is not of the fields of his possession, he would hallow unto Yahweh,
“‘Ne ame aɖe tsɔ anyigba si eya ŋutɔ ƒle, eye menye eƒe ƒome ƒe anyigba ƒe akpa aɖeke o na Yehowa la,
23 then shall the priest reckon to him the amount of thine estimate until the year of the jubilee, —and he shall give thine estimate, in that day, as holy unto Yahweh.
ekema nunɔla la agblɔ ga home si anyigba la axɔ va se ɖe Aseyetsoƒe si gbɔna la nɛ. Amea axe ga home ma enumake na Yehowa.
24 In the year of the jubilee, shall the field return unto him from whom he bought it to him whose it was as a possession in the land.
Ekema le Aseyetsoƒe la me la, anyigba la agazu nutɔ gbãtɔ si si wòƒlee le la tɔ.
25 And, every estimate of thine, shall be by the holy shekel, —twenty gerahs, make the shekel.
Ga homeawo katã nanɔ Kɔkɔeƒe la ƒe ga me: ga siwo katã woaxe la nanye esi dzi nunɔlawo ɖo kpee da ɖi.
26 Only the firstling which is born a firstling to Yahweh, among beasts, no man shall hallow it, —whether ox or sheep, unto Yahweh, it belongeth.
“‘Ame aɖeke matsɔ nyitsu alo agbo si ʋu dɔnu na dadaa la ana Yehowa o, elabena Yehowa tɔe wònye xoxo.
27 But, if it be among the beasts that are unclean, then shall he ransom it by thine estimate, and add the fifth part of it thereunto, —but, if it is not redeemed, then shall it be sold by thine estimate.
Ke ne enye ŋgɔgbevi na lã si ŋu se meɖe mɔ le be woatsɔ asa vɔe na Yehowa o la, ekema amea axe ga home si nunɔla ayɔ nɛ la kple ga home la ƒe mama atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka. Ke ne amea medi be yeagbugbɔe axɔ o la, nunɔla la nadzrae na ame bubu ɖe sia ɖe.
28 Only no devoted thing which any man shall devote unto Yahweh, of all that belongeth to him, —of man or beast, or of the field of his possession, shall be either sold or redeemed, —as to every devoted thing, most holy, it is unto Yahweh.
Ke nu sia nu si woatsɔ ana Yehowa, eɖanye amegbetɔ o, lã o alo anyigba si ƒe dome ame aɖe menyi o la, womadzra wo o, eye womagbugbɔ wo axɔ hã o, elabena nu kɔkɔewo ƒe nu kɔkɔewo wonye na Yehowa.
29 As touching any one devoted, who may be devoted from among men he shall not be ransomed, —he must be, surely put to death.
“‘Ne wodo busu ame aɖe la, womaxɔe kple ga o, ke boŋ woawui.
30 And, as for all the tithe of the land whether of the seed of the land, [or] of the fruit of the trees, unto Yahweh, it belongeth, —as something holy unto Yahweh.
“‘Nu siwo katã anyigba wɔ, agblemenukuwo loo alo kutsetsewo ƒe mama ewolia ƒe ɖeka nye Yehowa tɔ, eye wonye nu kɔkɔe.
31 But, if any man should be pleased, to redeem, aught of his tithes, the fifth part thereof, shall he add thereunto.
Ne ame aɖe di be yeaxɔ yeƒe kutsetse la alo agblemenuku la aƒle la, ele be wòaxe ga home la kple eƒe mama atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka.
32 And, as for all the tithe of herd and flock, all that passeth under the rod, the tenth, shall be holy unto Yahweh.
Ne lãkplɔla aɖe le eƒe lãwo xlẽm ɖekeɖekae la, lã ewolia ɖe sia ɖe nye Yehowa tɔ, eɖanye nyi, alẽ alo aƒemelã bubu ɖe sia ɖe o.
33 He shall not examine whether it be good or bad neither shall he change it, —or, if he do in anywise change, it, then shall both, it and what is given in exchange for it, be holy, it shall not be redeemed.
Womatia lã ewolia si woatsɔ ana Yehowa la ɖe eƒe nyonyo alo manyomanyo ta o. Womatsɔ ɖeke aɖɔli bubu hã o. Ne woaɖɔli lã aɖe kokoko la, ekema esi woaɖɔli kple esi woatsɔ aɖɔlii la siaa nye Yehowa tɔ, eye womaxe fe ɖe wo ta o!’”
34 These are the commandments which Yahweh commanded Moses for the sons of Israel, —in Mount Sinai.
Esiawoe nye se siwo Yehowa de na Mose le Sinai to la dzi na Israelviwo.
