< Numbers 5 >

1 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
2 Command the children of Israel, that they put out of the camp every leper, and every one that hath an issue, and whoever is defiled by the dead:
“Ɖe gbe na Israelviwo be woaɖe ame siwo katã nye anyidzelawo kple ame siwo katã ŋu tsi ƒomevi aɖe le dodom le kple ame siwo katã gblẽ kɔ ɖo le ame kuku aɖe ta la ɖa le asaɖa la me.
3 Both male and female shall ye put out, outside the camp shall ye put them; that they defile not their camps, in the midst of which I dwell.
Woawɔ ŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo siaa nenema. Miɖe wo ɖa ale be womagblẽ kɔ ɖo na asaɖa la, afi si mele le mia dome la o.”
4 And the children of Israel did so, and put them out outside the camp: as the LORD spoke to Moses, so did the children of Israel.
Ale Israelviwo wɔ Yehowa ƒe se la dzi eye woɖe ame siawo katã ɖa le asaɖa la me.
5 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
6 Speak to the children of Israel, When a man or woman shall commit any sin that men commit, to do a trespass against the LORD, and that person shall be guilty;
“Gblɔ na Israelviwo be: ‘Ne ŋutsu alo nyɔnu da vo ɖe ame aɖe ŋu le mɔ aɖe nu eye wòto nu ma me meɖi anukware na Yehowa o la, ame ma ɖi fɔ.
7 Then they shall confess their sin which they have done: and he shall recompense his trespass with the principal of it, and add to it the fifth part of it, and give it to him against whom he hath trespassed.
Ele be wòaʋu eƒe nu vɔ̃ me eye wòaxe fe ɖe nu vɔ̃ si wòwɔ la ta. Gawu la, agbugbɔ nu la na nutɔ eye wòagatsɔ nu la ƒe home akpa atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka akpee na nutɔ la.
8 But if the man shall have no kinsman to recompense the trespass to, let the trespass be recompensed to the LORD, even to the priest; besides the ram of the atonement, by which an atonement shall be made for him.
Ke ne ame si ŋu wòwɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖo la ku eye eƒe ƒometɔ gobii aɖeke meli wòaxe fea na o la, ekema axee na Yehowa to nunɔla dzi eye wòagana alẽ ɖeka hena avuléle.
9 And every offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they bring to the priest, shall be his.
Nu kɔkɔe ɖe sia ɖe si Israelviwo atsɔ vɛ na nunɔla aɖe la, anye nunɔlaa tɔ.
10 And every man’s hallowed things shall be his: whatever any man giveth to the priest, it shall be his.
Ame sia ame ƒe nu kɔkɔewo nye eya ŋutɔ tɔ, ke esi wòatsɔ na nunɔla la, anye nunɔla la tɔ.’”
11 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Eye Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
12 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, If any man’s wife shall go astray, and commit a trespass against him,
“Ƒo nu na Israelviwo, eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Ne ŋutsu aɖe srɔ̃ tra mɔ, meɖi anukware nɛ o,
13 And a man shall lie with her carnally, and it shall be hid from the eyes of her husband, and be kept secret, and she be defiled, and there be no witness against her, neither she be taken with the manner;
eye ŋutsu bubu de asi eŋu, nu sia le ɣaɣla ɖe srɔ̃a, eye womenya be egblẽ kɔ ɖo o (elabena ɖasefo aɖeke meli ɖe eŋu o, eye womelée asiasi o),
14 And the spirit of jealousy shall come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be defiled: or if the spirit of jealousy shall come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be not defiled:
ne ŋutsu la le ŋu ʋãm, eye wòbu be ye srɔ̃ gblẽ kɔ ɖo, alo ne eʋã ŋu togbɔ be srɔ̃a megblẽ kɔ ɖo o hã la,
15 Then shall the man bring his wife to the priest, and he shall bring her offering for her, the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil upon it, nor put frankincense on it; for it is an offering of jealousy, an offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to remembrance.
ele be ŋutsu la nakplɔ srɔ̃a ayi nunɔla gbɔ. Nu si wòana nunɔla ɖe srɔ̃a tae nye luwɔ lita ɖeka. Womakɔ ami kple dzudzɔdonu ɖe edzi o, elabena enye nuɖuvɔsa ɖe ŋuʋaʋã ta kple ŋkuɖodzivɔsa si ahe woƒe susu ayi ɖe fɔɖiɖi gbɔe.
16 And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the LORD:
“‘Nunɔla la akplɔ nyɔnu la ayi Yehowa ŋkume,
17 And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water:
aku tsi kɔkɔe ɖe anyikplu aɖe me, eye wòaku agbadɔ la me ke akɔ ɖe tsi la me.
18 And the priest shall set the woman before the LORD, and uncover the woman’s head, and put the offering of memorial in her hands, which is the jealousy offering: and the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that causeth the curse:
Ne nunɔla la na nyɔnu la tsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa ŋkume vɔ la, akaka ɖa ɖe ta na nyɔnu la, atsɔ ŋkuɖodzivɔsa kple nuɖuvɔsa na ŋuʋaʋã ade nyɔnu la ƒe asi me. Ke nunɔla la ŋutɔ alé tsi veve si hea fiƒode vaa ame dzi la ɖe asi.
19 And the priest shall charge her by an oath, and say to the woman, If no man hath lain with thee, and if thou hast not gone aside to uncleanness with another instead of thy husband, be thou free from this bitter water that causeth the curse:
Nunɔla la ana nyɔnu la naka atam, eye wòagblɔ nɛ be, “Ne ŋutsu bubu aɖeke medɔ kpli wò o, ne mèda afɔ, hegblẽ kɔ ɖo na ɖokuiwò esi nèle atsuƒe na srɔ̃wò o la, ekema tsi veve sia, si hea fiƒode vaa ame dzi la, megagblẽ nu le ŋutiwò o.
20 But if thou hast gone aside to another instead of thy husband, and if thou art defiled, and some man hath lain with thee besides thy husband:
Ke ne èda afɔ esime nèle srɔ̃wò gbɔ, nègblẽ kɔ ɖo, eye ŋutsu bubu, ame si menye srɔ̃wò o la de asi ŋuwò la,”
21 Then the priest shall charge the woman with an oath of cursing, and the priest shall say to the woman, The LORD make thee a curse and an oath among thy people, when the LORD doth make thy thigh to perish, and thy belly to swell;
ekema nunɔla la aka atam agblɔ fiƒodenyawo na nyɔnu la be, “Yehowa nana wò amewo naƒo fi ade wò, eye woagbe nu le gbɔwò; nena be wò ataŋuyi naflo ɖa, eye ƒo nadzi ɖe nuwò.
22 And this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy bowels, to make thy belly to swell, and thy thigh to perish: And the woman shall say, Amen, amen.
Tsi sia si hea fiƒode vaa ame dzi la nage ɖe lãme na wò ale be wò ƒodo nate ɖe nuwò, eye wò ataŋuyi naflo ɖa.” “‘Ekema nyɔnu la axɔ ɖe edzi be, “Amen, neva eme nenema.”
23 And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall blot them out with the bitter water:
“‘Ekema nunɔla la aŋlɔ fiƒode siawo ɖe agbalẽ me, eye wòakpala nuŋɔŋlɔ la ɖe tsi veve la me.
24 And he shall cause the woman to drink the bitter water that causeth the curse: and the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter.
Nunɔla la ana nyɔnu la nano tsi veve si hea fiƒode vaa ame dzi la, tsi sia age ɖe eƒe lãme, eye wòana fukpekpe kple vevesese nava eya amea dzi.
25 Then the priest shall take the jealousy offering out of the woman’s hand, and shall wave the offering before the LORD, and offer it upon the altar:
Le esia megbe la, nunɔla la axɔ nuɖuvɔsa na ŋuʋaʋã le nyɔnu la si, anyee le yame le Yehowa ŋkume, eye wòatsɔe ada ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi.
26 And the priest shall take an handful of the offering, even the memorial of it, and burn it upon the altar, and afterward shall cause the woman to drink the water.
Nunɔla la aku nuɖuvɔsa la ƒe asiʋlo ɖeka abe ŋkuɖodzivɔsa ene, eye wòatɔ dzoe le vɔsamlekpui la dzi. Azɔ la, ana nyɔnu la nano tsi la.
27 And when he hath made her to drink the water, then it shall come to pass, that, if she is defiled, and hath done trespass against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall perish: and the woman shall be a curse among her people.
Ne nyɔnu la gblẽ kɔ ɖo, eye meto nyateƒe na srɔ̃a o, evɔ wona wòno tsi si hea fiƒode vaa ame dzi la, tsi la age ɖe eƒe lãme, eye wòase veve vevie. Eƒe ƒodo adzi ɖe enu, eƒe ataŋulã aflo ɖa, eye wòazu ɖiŋudonu le eƒe amewo dome.
28 And if the woman is not defiled, but is clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed.
Ke ne nyɔnu la megblẽ kɔ ɖo o, eye wòdza la, woatso afia nɛ, eye wòagate ŋu adzi vi.
29 This is the law of jealousies, when a wife goeth astray to another instead of her husband, and is defiled;
“‘Esiae nye ŋuʋaʋãŋutise ne nyɔnu aɖe da afɔ, eye wògblẽ kɔ ɖo, esi wòle atsuƒe,
30 Or when the spirit of jealousy cometh upon him, and he is jealous over his wife, and shall set the woman before the LORD, and the priest shall execute upon her all this law.
alo ne ŋuʋaʋã xɔ ŋutsu aɖe me, elabena ebu nazã ɖe srɔ̃a ŋu. Nunɔla la ana nyɔnu la natsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa ŋkume, eye wòawɔ se sia katã me dɔ na nyɔnu la.
31 Then shall the man be guiltless from iniquity, and this woman shall bear her iniquity.
Womaɖe agɔdzedze aɖeke na srɔ̃ŋutsu la o, gake nu vɔ̃ yomedzenu anɔ nyɔnu la dzi.’”
