< Numbers 1 >
1 And the LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of the congregation, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt, saying,
Awurade kasa kyerɛɛ Mose wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan a ɛwɔ Sinai anweatam so. Yei siiɛ wɔ mfeɛ mmienu a Israelfoɔ firii Misraim no akyi, ɔbosome a ɛtɔ so mmienu no no ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan. Ɔkaa sɛ:
2 Take ye the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, after their families, by the house of their fathers, with the number of their names, every male by their polls;
“Gyina Israelfoɔ no mmusuakuo ne wɔn mmusua so kan wɔn nyinaa. Twerɛ ɔbarima biara din.
3 From twenty years old and upward, all that are able to go forth to war in Israel: thou and Aaron shall number them by their armies.
Wo ne Aaron na mobɛkan mmarima a wɔadi mfeɛ aduonu no ne deɛ ɛboro saa a wɔtumi kɔ ɔsa.
4 And with you there shall be a man of every tribe; every one head of the house of his fathers.
Ɔbarima a ɔfiri abusuakuo biara mu a ɔyɛ ntuanoni na ɔbɛboa mo.

18 And they assembled all the congregation on the first day of the second month, and they declared their genealogies after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, by their polls.

47 But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them.
Mmusua a wɔwɔ Lewi abusuakuo no deɛ, wɔankan wɔn anka wɔn a aka no ho.
48 For the LORD had spoken to Moses, saying,
Na Awurade aka akyerɛ Mose sɛ,
49 Only thou shalt not number the tribe of Levi, neither take the sum of them among the children of Israel:
“Nkan Lewifoɔ abusuakuo no, na mfa wɔn nka Israelfoɔ a wɔaka no ho.
50 But thou shalt appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of testimony, and over all its vessels, and over all things that belong to it: they shall bear the tabernacle, and all its vessels; and they shall minister to it, and shall encamp around the tabernacle.
Fa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ho dwumadie hyɛ Lewifoɔ no nsa. Wɔnhwɛ nneɛma a wɔde asiesie mu ne deɛ ɛkeka ho nyinaa so. Wɔn na wɔbɛsoa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ne emu nneɛma, wɔbɛhwɛ so na wɔatenatena ho.
51 And when the tabernacle moveth forward, the Levites shall take it down: and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up: and the stranger that cometh near shall be put to death.
Ɛberɛ biara a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔtu Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no, Lewifoɔ no na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔtutu, na baabiara a wɔde bɛsi no, wɔn na wɔbɛyɛ. Onipa foforɔ biara a ɔbɛbɛn ho no, wɔbɛkum no.
52 And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, throughout their hosts.
Israel abusuakuo biara bɛnya nʼatenaeɛ ne ne frankaa.
53 But the Levites shall encamp around the tabernacle of testimony, that there may be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of testimony.
Lewifoɔ no bɛsisi wɔn ntomadan atwa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ho ahyia, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a Onyankopɔn abufuhyeɛ remma Israelfoɔ no so. Lewifoɔ no na wɔbɛhwɛ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no so.”
54 And the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.
Israelfoɔ no yɛɛ yeinom nyinaa sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
