Leviticus 9
1 Eight days later, Moses/I summoned the elders of Israel.
Ahodwira no akyi ɛda a ɛtɔ so nwɔtwe no, Mose frɛɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima ne Israel mpanimfoɔ nyinaa.
2 Then he/I said to Aaron, “Take a young bull for the offering to enable you leaders to be forgiven for the sins you have committed, and a ram to be completely burned [on the altar], both of them without any defects, and offer them to Yahweh.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ Aaron sɛ, ɔnkɔkyere nantwinini ba mfiri anantwie no mu na ɔmfa no mmɔ bɔne afɔdeɛ, na ɔnkyere odwennini a ne ho nni dɛm mfa no mmɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ. Ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔmmɔ saa afɔdeɛ yi nyinaa wɔ Awurade anim.
3 Then say to the Israeli people, ‘Take one male goat for the offering to enable you all to be forgiven for the sins you have committed. Also take a calf and a lamb that have no defects, to be an offering completely burned [on the altar].
Afei Mose kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monka nkyerɛ Israelfoɔ na wɔnyi ɔpapo mfa no mmɔ bɔne afɔdeɛ mma wɔn ho, na wɔmfa nantwie a wadi afe ne odwammaa a wadi afe a wɔn ho nni dɛm biara mmɔ wɔn ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no.
4 Also take an ox and a ram to be an offering to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh], along with an offering of flour mixed with olive oil. Do this because today Yahweh is going to appear to you.’”
Bio, ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ wɔmfa nantwinini ne odwennini mmɔ asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ na wɔmfa asikyiresiam a wɔde ngo afra mmɔ aduane afɔdeɛ. Ka kyerɛ ma wɔmfa saa afɔrebɔdeɛ yi nyinaa mma Awurade, ɛfiri sɛ ɛnnɛ, Awurade bɛyi ne ho adi akyerɛ mo.”
5 [After Moses/I told this to the Israeli people, some of them] took the things that Moses/I had commanded them to take, and went to the courtyard in front of the Sacred Tent. Then all the people came near and stood in front of Yahweh.
Enti wɔde saa nneɛma yi nyinaa baa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no kwan ano sɛdeɛ Mose hyɛeɛ no. Nnipa no nyinaa bɛgyinagyinaa Awurade anim.
6 Then Moses/I said, “This is what Yahweh has commanded you to do, in order that his glory will appear to you.”
Mose ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Sɛ modi Awurade mmara so a, mobɛnya nʼanimuonyam.”
7 Then Moses/I said to Aaron, “Come to the altar and sacrifice the animal that is your offering to enable you to be forgiven for the sins you have committed, and the animal that will be completely burned there. Because of those offerings, God will forgive you and the people for the sins that you have committed [DOU]. Do those things that Yahweh has commanded.”
Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron sɛ ɔnkɔ afɔrebukyia no so na ɔnkɔbɔ bɔne ne ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no mfa nyɛ mpatadeɛ mma ne ho ansa na ato nnipa no sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no.
8 So Aaron came close to the altar and slaughtered the calf to be an offering for his sins.
Enti Aaron foro kɔɔ afɔrebukyia no so. Ɔkumm nantwie ba no de bɔɔ ɔno ara ne bɔne ho afɔdeɛ.
9 His sons brought its blood to him [in a bowl]. He dipped his finger into the blood and put some of it on the projections at the corners of the altar. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
Ne mmammarima no de mogya no brɛɛ no ɛnna ɔde ne nsateaa baako bɔɔ mu fɔree mmɛn a ɛwɔ afɔrebukyia no ho no ɛnna ɔhwiee nkaeɛ no guu afɔrebukyia no ase.
10 He/I burned the fat, including that which covered the kidneys and the liver, as Yahweh had commanded him/me.
Afei, ɔhyee sradeɛ, sawa, berɛboɔ, berɛboɔ nkotokuo a ɛfiri bɔne afɔrebɔdeɛ no mu sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
11 Then Aaron burned [the rest of] the meat and the hide/skin outside the camp.
Na ɛnam no deɛ, ɔhyee no ne ne nhoma wɔ sraban no akyi.
12 Then Aaron slaughtered the animal that would be completely burned [on the altar]. His sons handed him [the bowl containing] its blood, and he sprinkled the blood on all sides of the altar.
Deɛ ɛdi hɔ ne sɛ, ɔkumm ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ aboa no maa ne mmammarima sɔɔ mogya no maa ɔde petee afɔrebukyia no ho nyinaa,
13 Then they handed him the head and the pieces of the animal that would be burned, and he burned them on the altar.
Wɔde aboa no brɛɛ no asinasini a ne ti ka ho. Ɔhyee aboa no akwaa biara wɔ afɔrebukyia no so.
14 He washed the inner parts and the legs of the animal, and burned them on the altar, on top of the other pieces of the animal.
Afei, ɔhoroo aboa no ayamdeɛ ne ne nan ho hyee no afɔrebukyia no so sɛ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ.
15 Then Aaron brought the animals that would be sacrifices for the Israeli people. He took the goat and slaughtered it to be an offering to enable them to be forgiven for the sins they had committed, like he had done with the goat for his own offering.
Afei, ɔbɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa ɔmanfoɔ. Ɔkumm abirekyie nanso ɔfaa ɛkwan korɔ a ɔfaa so bɔɔ bɔne afɔdeɛ maa ne ho no so bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa ne ho.
16 Then he brought the animal for the offering to be completely burned. He slaughtered it and offered it in the way that Yahweh had commanded him to do.
Saa ɛkwan no so na ɔfa bɔɔ wɔn ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ de maa Awurade sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn mmara kyerɛ no.
17 He also brought the offering of grain. He took a handful of it and burned it on the altar, like he had done for the animal that he had slaughtered and completely burned [on the altar] in the morning.
Afei, ɔbɔɔ atokoɔ afɔdeɛ no, ɔfaa ne nsabuo ma ɛnna ɔhyee no afɔrebukyia no so de kaa anɔpa ɔhyeɛ afɔrebɔ no ho.
18 Then he slaughtered the ox and the ram, to be an offering for the Israeli people to maintain fellowship with Yahweh. His sons handed him [the bowl containing] the blood, and he sprinkled the blood against all sides of the altar.
Ɔkumm nantwie ne odwennini no a ɛyɛ nnipa no asomdwoeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ no. Aaron mmammarima no de mogya no brɛɛ no maa ɔde petee afɔrebukyia no ho nyinaa.
19 But he took the fat from the ox and the ram, including their fat tails that were cut close to the backbone, and all the fat that covered the livers and the kidneys.
Ɔyii nantwie no ne odwennini no sradeɛ. Ɔyii wɔn padua mu sradeɛ ne wɔn ayamdeɛ sradeɛ, ne wɔn sawa ne wɔn berɛboɔ kotokuo.
20 He put them on top of the breasts of those animals and carried them to the altar to be burned.
Wɔde sradeɛ no guu mmoa no ayan so na Aaron hyee no afɔrebukyia no so.
21 Then, doing what Moses/I had commanded, he lifted up in front of Yahweh the breast and the right thigh of those animals, to signify that those two animals completely belonged to Yahweh.
Na ɔhim ayan no ne mmoa no mmati nifa no wɔ Awurade anim de kyerɛɛ sɛ afɔdeɛ no yɛ ne dea sɛdeɛ Mose hyɛeɛ no.
22 Then Aaron lifted his arms toward the people and [asked Yahweh to] bless them. Then having finished making all those offerings, he stepped down [from the place where the altar was].
Afei, Aaron trɛɛ ne nsam wɔ nnipa no so hyiraa wɔn, ɛnna ɔsiane firii afɔrebukyia no ho sii fam.
23 Then Aaron and Moses/I entered the Sacred Tent. When they/we later came out, they/we [asked Yahweh to] bless the people. And suddenly the glory/brightness of Yahweh appeared to all the people.
Mose ne Aaron kɔɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan mu hɔ na wɔsane baa bio no, wɔhyiraa nnipa no na Awurade animuonyam baa nnipa no nyinaa so.
24 A fire from Yahweh appeared and burned up the offering that was to be completely burned and the fat that was on the altar. And when all the people saw that, they shouted joyfully and prostrated themselves on the ground [to worship Yahweh].
Na ogya firi Awurade nkyɛn bɛhyee ɔhyeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ no ne sradeɛ a ɛwɔ afɔrebukyia no so no. Na nnipa no hunuu yei no, wɔn nyinaa teateaam butubutuu fam wɔ Awurade anim.
