Numbers 1
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses in the tent of meeting in the wilderness of Sinai. This happened on the first day of the second month during the second year after the people of Israel had come out from the land of Egypt. Yahweh said,
Awurade kasa kyerɛɛ Mose wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan a ɛwɔ Sinai nweatam so. Eyi sii wɔ mfe abien a Israelfo fii Misraim no akyi, ɔsram a ɛto so abien no da a edi kan. Ɔkae se:
2 “Conduct a census of all the men of Israel in each clan, in their fathers' families. Count them by name. Count every male, each man
“Gyina Israelfo no mmusuakuw ne wɔn mmusua so kan wɔn nyinaa. Kyerɛw ɔbarima biara din.
3 who is twenty years old or older. Count all who can fight as soldiers for Israel. You and Aaron must record the number of men in their armed groups.
Wo ne Aaron na mobɛkan mmarima a wɔadi mfe aduonu no ne nea ɛboro saa a wotumi kɔ ɔsa.
4 A man from each tribe, a clan head, must serve with you as his tribe's leader. Each leader must lead the men who will fight for his tribe.
Ɔbarima a ofi abusuakuw biara mu a ɔyɛ ntuanoni na ɛsɛ sɛ ɔboa mo.
5 These are the names of the leaders who must fight with you: From the tribe of Reuben, Elizur son of Shedeur;
“Mmarima a wɔbɛboa mo no din ni: “Ruben abusuakuw no ntuanoni ne Sedeur babarima Elisur;

15 and from the tribe of Naphtali, Ahira son of Enan.”
Naftali abusuakuw ntuanoni ne Enan babarima Ahira.”
16 These were the men appointed from the people. They led their ancestors' tribes. They were the leaders of the clans in Israel.
Eyinom ne mmarima a woyii wɔn fii nnipa no mu, a wɔyɛ wɔn agyanom mmusua no ntuanofo.
17 Moses and Aaron took these men, who were recorded by name,
Mose ne Aaron faa saa nnipa a wɔabobɔ wɔn din yi,
18 and along with these men they assembled all the men of Israel on the first day of the second month. Then each man twenty years old and older identified his ancestry. He had to name the clans and families descended from his ancestors.

47 But the men who were descended from Levi were not counted,
Mmusua a wɔwɔ Lewi abusuakuw no de, wɔankan wɔn anka wɔn a aka no ho.
48 because Yahweh had said to Moses,
Na Awurade aka akyerɛ Mose se,
49 “You must not count the tribe of Levi or include them in the total of the people of Israel.
“Nkan Lewifo abusuakuw no, na mfa wɔn nka Israelfo a wɔaka no ho.
50 Instead, assign the Levites to care for the tabernacle of the covenant decrees, and to care for all the furnishings in the tabernacle and for everything in it. The Levites must carry the tabernacle, and they must carry the tabernacle's furnishings. They must care for the tabernacle and make their camp around it.
Fa Ahyiae Ntamadan no ho dwumadi hyɛ Lewifo no nsa. Wɔnhwɛ nneɛma a wɔde asiesie mu ne nea ɛkeka ho nyinaa so. Wɔn na wɔbɛsoa Ahyiae Ntamadan no ne mu nneɛma, wɔbɛhwɛ so na wɔatenatena ho.
51 When the tabernacle is to move to another place, the Levites must take it down. When the tabernacle is to be set up, the Levites must set it up. Any stranger who comes near the tabernacle must be killed.
Bere biara a ɛsɛ sɛ wotu Ahyiae Ntamadan no, Lewifo no na ɛsɛ sɛ wotutu, na baabiara a wɔde besi no, wɔn na wɔbɛyɛ. Onipa foforo biara a ɔbɛbɛn ho no, wobekum no.
52 When the people of Israel set up their tents, each man must do so near the banner that belongs to his armed group.
Israel abusuakuw biara benya ne tenabea ne ne frankaa.
53 However, the Levites must set up their tents around the tabernacle of the covenant decrees so that my anger does not come upon the people of Israel. The Levites must care for the tabernacle of the covenant decrees.”
Lewifo no besisi wɔn ntamadan atwa Ahyiae Ntamadan no ho ahyia, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a Onyankopɔn abufuwhyew remma Israelfo no so. Lewifo no na wɔbɛhwɛ Ahyiae Ntamadan no so.”
54 The people of Israel did all these things. They did everything that Yahweh commanded through Moses.
Israelfo no yɛɛ eyinom nyinaa sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
