< Numbers 15 >
1 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
2 Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou shall say unto them, —When ye shall enter into the land of your dwelling-places, which, I, am giving unto you;
“Ƒo nu na Israelviwo, eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Ne miege ɖe anyigba si mele mia nam abe mia de ene dzi,
3 and ye would offer, as an altar-flame unto Yahweh an ascending-offering or a sacrifice, for celebrating a vow or as a freewill-offering, or in your appointed seasons, —by way of offering a satisfying odour unto Yahweh, from the herd or from the flock,
eye miesa dzovɔ na Yehowa tso miaƒe lãhawo me, abe ʋeʋẽ lĩlĩlĩ si dzea Yehowa ŋu la ene, nenye numevɔsa alo vɔsa siwo ku ɖe adzɔgbeɖeɖe tɔxɛwo ŋu, lɔlɔ̃nununana alo Ŋkekenyuiwo ƒe vɔsawo ŋu la,
4 then shall he that bringeth near his oblation bring near unto Yahweh a meal-offering, of fine meal a tenth part [of an ephah] overflowed with the fourth part of a hin of oil;
ekema ame si le vɔ la sam la atsɔ nuɖuvɔsa si nye wɔ memee kilogram ɖeka, si wobaka kple ami lita ɖeka na Yehowa,
5 wine also for a drink-offering, the fourth part of a hin, shalt thou offer with the ascending-offering or with the sacrifice, —for each he-lamb.
eye nunovɔsa si nye wain lita ɖeka la akpe ɖe eŋu. Wain hin ɖeka ƒe akpa enelia akpe ɖe alẽvi ɖeka ŋu.
6 Or, with a ram, thou shalt offer a meal-offering, of fine meal, two tenths, —overflowed with oil, the third of a hin;
“‘Nenye agboe wotsɔ le vɔ la sam la, woatsɔ wɔ memee kilogram eve si woblu kple ami lita ɖeka kple afã
7 wine also, for a drink-offering, the third of a hin, shalt thou bring near as a satisfying odour unto Yahweh.
kple wain lita ɖeka kple afã la akpe ɖe eŋu abe nunovɔsa ene. Esia anye vɔsa si ʋẽna lĩlĩlĩ, eye wòdzea Yehowa ŋu.
8 And when thou wouldest offer a choice young bullock as an ascending-offering or sacrifice, —for celebrating a vow or as a peace-offering unto Yahweh,
“‘Ne ètsɔ nyitsuvi aɖe be yeasa numevɔ, adzɔgbeɖevɔ alo akpedavɔe na Yehowa la,
9 then shall he bring near with his choice young bullock, a meal-offering, of fine meal three tenths, —overflowed with half a hin of oil;
ekema nàtsɔ nuɖuvɔsa, wɔ memee lita ade kple afã kple ami lita eve akpe ɖe nyitsuvi la ŋu.
10 wine also, shalt thou bring near for a drink-offering, half a hin, —for an altar-flame of satisfying odour unto Yahweh.
Nunovɔsa si akpe ɖe eŋu la anye wain lita eve. Woatsɔ dzo asa vɔ sia, eye wòadze Yehowa ŋu.
11 Thus and thus, shall it be done, for each ox, and for each ram, —and for each young one among the sheep, or among the goats:
Woawɔ nyitsu alo agbo, alẽvi alo gbɔ̃ ɖe sia ɖe ŋu dɔ nenema.
12 according to the number which ye shall offer, thus and thus, shall ye do for each one according to their number.
Wɔ nu sia na wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe, ɖe woƒe agbɔsɔsɔ nu.
13 Every one born in the land, thus and thus, shall offer these things, —when bringing near an altar-flame of a satisfying odour unto Yahweh.
“‘Dzɔleaƒea ɖe sia ɖe awɔ nu siawo ale, ne etsɔ numevɔsanu aɖe vɛ be wòanye ʋeʋẽ lĩlĩlĩ si adze Yehowa ŋu.
14 And when there shall sojourn with you a sojourner, or one who is in your midst to your generations, and he would offer an altar-flame of a satisfying odour unto Yahweh, as ye offer, so, shall he offer,
Hena dzidzime siwo gbɔna la, ɣe sia ɣi si amedzro aɖe alo ame bubu aɖe, si le mia dome ana dzovɔsanu aɖe be wòanye ʋeʋẽ lĩlĩlĩ na Yehowa la, ele be wòawɔe tututu abe ale si miewɔnɛ ene.
15 In the convocation, one statute, shall there be for you and for the sojourner who sojourneth, —an age-abiding statute unto your generations, as ye are, so, the sojourner, shall be before Yahweh:
Se ɖeka mawo ke nanɔ ameha la si na mi kple amedzro siwo le mia dome la siaa elabena miesɔ le Yehowa ƒe ŋkume. Esia nye ɖoɖo mavɔ na dzidzime siwo gbɔna.
16 one law and one regulation, shall there be for yourselves and for the sojourner that sojourneth with you.
Se kple ɖoɖo mawo ke nakplɔ mi kple amedzro siwo le mia dome.’”
17 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
18 Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say unto them, —When ye enter into the land whereinto I, am bringing you,
“Ƒo nu na Israelviwo, eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Ne miege ɖe anyigba si dzi mele mia kplɔm yi dzi,
19 then shall it be, when ye eat the bread of the land, that ye shall heave up a heave-offering unto Yahweh.
eye mieɖu anyigba ma dzi nuɖuɖu la, mitsɔ eƒe ɖe sa vɔe na Yehowa.
20 Of the first of your meal, shall ye heave up, a cake, as a heave-offering, —like the heave-offering of grain, so shall ye heave it.
Mitsɔ miaƒe wɔ gbãtɔwo tɔ tatalĩ, wòanye vɔsa tso miaƒe lu gbãtɔ si tso lugbɔƒe.
21 Of the first of your meal, shall ye give unto Yahweh a heave-offering, —unto your generations.
To dzidzime siwo ava me la, ele be miasa vɔ sia na Yehowa tso miaƒe luwɔ gbãtɔwo me.’”
22 And when ye shall make a mistake, and not observe all these commandments, —which Yahweh hath spoken unto Moses;
“‘Ne miawo alo miaƒe dzidzimeviwo da vo, eye womewɔ se siwo katã Yehowa de na mi le ƒeawo me to Mose dzi la dzi o la,
23 even all that Yahweh hath given unto you in command, by the hand of Moses, —from the day that Yahweh gave command, and onward unto your generations,
Yehowa ƒe se siwo wode na mi to edzi tso gbe si gbe Yehowa de wo, woayi edzi to dzidzime siwo gbɔna me,
24 then shall it be—if, any from the eyes of the assembly, it hath been done by mistake, that all the assembly shall offer one choice young bullock for an ascending-sacrifice as a satisfying odour unto Yahweh, with the meal-offering thereof and the drink-offering thereof, according to the regulation, —and one young he-goat as a sin-bearer.
eye menye nu si woɖo wɔ, eye ameha la menya nu tso eŋu o la, ameha blibo la ana nyitsu fɛ̃ aɖe hena numevɔsa hena ʋeʋẽ lĩlĩlĩ si adze Yehowa ŋu hekpe ɖe eƒe nuɖuvɔsa kple nunovɔsa si woɖo da ɖi kple gbɔ̃tsu ɖeka na nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa ŋu.
25 So shall the priest put a propitiatory, covering over all the assembly of the sons of Israel and pardon shall be granted unto them, —because a mistake, it was, they, therefore have brought in their offering—an altar-flame unto Yahweh and their sin-bearer before Yahweh for their mistake:
Nunɔla alé avu ɖe Israelviwo katã nu, eye woatsɔ woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ake wo, elabena vodadae, eye woɖɔ vodada sia ɖo to dzovɔsa kple nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa me le Yehowa ŋkume.
26 and pardon shall be granted unto all the assembly of the sons of Israel and unto the sojourner that sojourneth in their midst, —for, in the case of all the people, it was, by mistake.
Woatsɔ nu vɔ̃ ake ame sia ame; woatsɔe ake amedzro siwo le Israelviwo dome hã, elabena ameha blibo lae da vo, eya ta ameha blibo la akpɔ gome le tsɔtsɔke la me.
27 And if, any one person, shall sin by mistake, then shall he bring near a she-goat of the first year as a sin-bearer;
“‘Nenye ame ɖekae da vo la, ekema amea ana gbɔ̃nɔe si xɔ ƒe ɖeka la na nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa.
28 and the priest shall put a propitiatory-covering over the person who hath made the mistake, when he hath sinned by mistake before Yahweh, even put a propitiatory-covering over him, and pardon shall be granted him.
Nunɔla la alé avu ɖe enu le Yehowa ŋkume, eye wòatsɔ eƒe nu vɔ̃ akee.
29 For the native born among the sons of Israel, and for the sojourner that sojourneth in their midst, one law, shall there be unto you—for acting by mistake.
Se sia bla mi ame Israelvi dzɔleaƒeawo kple amedzro siwo le mia dome hã.
30 But, as for the person who acteth with a high hand—of the native born or of the sojourners, Yahweh himself, he, reproacheth, —therefore shall that person be cut off out of the midst of his people.
“‘Ke ne ame aɖe nya nyuie hafi da vo aɖe la, nenye Israelvi alo amedzro hã la, ekema edo vlo Yehowa, eya ta ele be woaɖee ɖa le eƒe amewo dome.
31 Because the word of Yahweh, hath he despised, and his commandment, hath he broken, that person shall be surely cut off, his iniquity, is in himself.
Esi wòdo vlo Yehowa ƒe sewo abe nu ɖowɔ ene, eye wònya nyuie hafi da le eƒe se dzi la, ele be woawui, eye eƒe nu vɔ̃ anɔ eya ŋutɔ dzi.’”
32 While the sons of Israel were in the desert, they found a man gathering sticks on the sabbath day.
Gbe ɖeka esime Israelviwo nɔ gbedzi la, wolé Israelvi aɖe wònɔ nake fɔm le Dzudzɔgbe la dzi.
33 And they who found him gathering sticks, brought him near, unto Moses and unto Aaron and unto all the assembly.
Wokplɔe yi Mose kple Aron kple ameha la ŋkume.
34 And they put him in ward, —because it was not clear what they should do unto him.
Wodee mɔ va se ɖe esime woanya nu si Yehowa adi be woawɔ.
35 Then said Yahweh unto Moses, The man shall be, put to death, —all the assembly, stoning him with stones, outside the camp.
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Ele be ŋutsu la naku. Ele be ameawo katã naƒu kpee le asaɖa la godo wòaku.”
36 So then all the assembly, put him forth, outside the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
Ale wohee yi asaɖa la godo, eye wowui abe ale si Yehowa ɖo na wo ene.
37 And Yahweh spake unto Moses saying:
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
38 Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say unto them, That they shall make them fringes on the corners of their garments unto their generations—and shall put upon the fringe of the corner a cord of blue:
“Ƒo nu na Israelviwo, eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Mia kple miaƒe dzidzimeviwo miade gbo miaƒe avɔwo ƒe dzogoewo to, eye ka blɔtɔ nanɔ gbo ɖe sia ɖe ŋu.
39 so shall they serve you as fringes, and when ye see then, then shall ye call to mind all the commandments of Yahweh, and shall do them, —and shall not spy out, after your own hearts, and after your own eyes for things, after which, ye, are ready to go unchastely away:
Ne miekpɔ gbo siawo la, ekema miaɖo ŋku se siwo katã Yehowa de na mi la dzi be miawɔ wo dzi, eye miagatsɔ mia ɖokuiwo adzra na ŋutilãmenuwo, miaƒe dzi ƒe nudzodzrowo kple nu siwo miaƒe ŋku kpɔna la o.
40 to the intent ye may call to mind, and do all my commandments, and be holy unto your God.
Ekema miaɖo ŋku edzi, awɔ nye sewo katã dzi, eye miakɔ mia ɖokuiwo ŋuti na miaƒe Mawu la.
41 I—Yahweh, am your God—who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to become your God, —I, —Yahweh, am your God.
Nyee nye Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu, ame si kplɔ mi do goe tso Egipte be manye miaƒe Mawu. Nyee nye Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu.’”
