Leviticus 12
1 Yahweh said to Moses,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ ɔnhyɛ Israelfoɔ mmara sɛ,
2 “Speak to the people of Israel, saying, 'If a woman conceives and gives birth to a male child, then she will be unclean for seven days, just as she is unclean during the days of her monthly period.
“Sɛ ɔbaa bi wo ɔbabarima a, ne ho nnte nnanson, te sɛ deɛ ɔkɔ afikyire a ne ho nteɛ no ara.
3 On the eighth day the flesh of a baby boy's foreskin must be circumcised.
Ne nnawɔtwe so no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔtwa abarimaa no twetia.
4 Then the mother's purification from her bleeding will continue for thirty-three days. She must not touch any holy thing or come into the tabernacle area until the days of her purification are finished.
Na nnafua aduasa mmiɛnsa a ɛda nʼanim a ɔde rete ne ho no, ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔsɔ biribiara a ɛyɛ kronkron mu na ɔnni ho kwan sɛ ɔkɔ hyiadan mu nso.
5 But if she gives birth to a female child, then she will be unclean for two weeks, as she is during her period. Then the mother's purification will continue for sixty-six days.
Sɛ ɔbaa bi wo ɔbabaa a, ne ho nnte nnawɔtwe mmienu, te sɛ deɛ ɔkɔ afikyire a ne ho nteɛ no ara. Afei ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtwɛn nnafua aduosia nsia ma ne ho twa.
6 When the days of her purification are finished, for a son or for a daughter, she must bring a one year old lamb as a burnt offering, and a young pigeon or dove as a sin offering, to the entrance of the tent of meeting, to the priest.
“Sɛ saa ahoteɛ nna yi twam a (mmara a ɛdi so yi ka ɔbaa a wawo abarimaa anaa abaayewa ho asɛm), ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde odwammaa a wadi afe bɛbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ na ɔde aborɔnoma anaa aturukuku ba bɛbɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde wɔn kɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ano kɔma ɔsɔfoɔ no,
7 Then he will offer it before Yahweh and make atonement for her, and she will be cleansed from the flow of her blood. This is the law regarding a woman who gives birth to either a male or a female child.
na ɔsɔfoɔ no de ama Awurade de ayɛ mpatadeɛ ama ɛna no; ɛba saa a, ne ho te bio wɔ nʼawoɔ mu mogyaguo ho. “Yei ne awoɔ akyi ahyɛdeɛ.
8 If she is not able to afford a lamb, then she must take two doves or two young pigeons, one as a burnt offering and the other as a sin offering, and the priest will make atonement for her; then she will be clean.'”
Na sɛ ɔyɛ ohiani a ɔrennya odwammaa no a, ɛnneɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde mmorɔnoma mmienu anaa nturukuku mma mmienu ba. Wɔde baako bɛbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ na wɔde baako abɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ. Ɔsɔfoɔ no de yeinom bɛyɛ mpatadeɛ ama no, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a ne ho bɛte bio.”
