< Numbers 8 >
1 And the Lord spak to Moises, and seide, Speke thou to Aaron,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
2 and thou schalt seie to hym, Whanne thou hast sett seuene launternes, the candilstike be reisid in the south part; therfor comaunde thou this, that the lanternes biholde euene ayens the north to the boord of looues of `settyng forth, tho schulen schyne ayenus that part which the candilstike biholdith.
“Ka kyerɛ Aaron sɛ, sɛ ɔsɔ nkanea nson a ɛwɔ kaneadua no so no a, ɔnsɔ no sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ɛbɛto ne hann no akɔ nʼanim.”
3 And Aaron dide, and puttide lanternes on the candilstike, as the Lord comaundide to Moises.
Enti, Aaron yɛɛ saa.
4 Sotheli this was the makyng of the candilstike; it was of gold betun out with hameris, as wel the myddil stok as alle thingis that camen forth of euer eithir side of the yeerdis; bi the saumple `whych the Lord schewide to Moises, so he wrouyte the candilstike.
Kaneadua no ne nhwiren a wɔde asiesie nʼase ne ne mman no nyinaa, sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔaboro na wɔde yɛeɛ. Wɔyɛɛ no sɛdeɛ Awurade kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ wɔnyɛ no no.
5 And the Lord spak to Moises,
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
6 and seide, Take thou Leuytis fro the myddis of the sones of Israel;
“Yi Lewifoɔ no firi Israelfoɔ no mu na te wɔn ho.
7 and thou schalt clense hem bi this custom. Be thei spreynt with watir of clensyng, and schaue thei alle the heeris of her fleisch. And whanne thei han waische her clothis and ben clensid, take thei an oxe of drooues,
Fa ahodwira nsuo pete wɔn so. Ma wɔnyi wɔn ho nwi nyinaa, na wɔnsi wɔn nneɛma nyinaa, afei wɔn ho bɛte.
8 and the fletyng sacrifice therof, flour spreynt to gidere with oile; forsothe thou schalt take another oxe of the drooue for synne;
Afei, ma wɔmfa nantwinini ba ne aduane afɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛyɛ asikyiresiam a wɔayam no muhumuhu a wɔde ngo afra a nantwinini ba baako ka ho a wɔde no bɛbɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ mmra.
9 and thou schalt present the Leuytis bifor the tabernacle of boond of pees, whanne al the multitude of the sones of Israel is clepid togidere.
Afei, frɛ Israelfoɔ no nyinaa hyia na fa Lewifoɔ no bra Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ɛpono ano.
10 And whanne the Leuytis ben bifor the Lord, the sones of Israel schulen sette her hondis on hem;
Ɛhɔ, wɔ Awurade anim, mpanimfoɔ a wɔtuatua mmusuakuo no ano no de wɔn nsa bɛgu wɔn so
11 and Aaron schal offre the Leuytis in the siyt of the Lord, a yifte of the sones of Israel, that thei serue in the seruice `of hym.
na Aaron ayɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bi sɛ ɔde wɔn rema Awurade sɛ akyɛdeɛ a ɛfiri Israel manfoɔ nyinaa nkyɛn. Lewifoɔ bɛsi nnipa no nyinaa anan asom Awurade.
12 Also the Leuytis schulen sette her hondis on the heedis of the oxun, of whiche oxun thou schalt make oon for synne, and the tother in to brent sacrifice of the Lord, that thou preye for hem.
“Afei, Lewifoɔ mpanimfoɔ no de wɔn nsa bɛgu nantwie mma no apampam na wɔde wɔn ama Awurade. Wɔde baako bɛbɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ na wɔde baako nso abɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ de ayɛ mpatadeɛ ama Lewifoɔ no.
13 And thou schalt ordeyne the Leuytis in the siyt of Aaron, and of hise sones, and thou schalt sacre hem offrid to the Lord;
Afei, wɔde Lewifoɔ no bɛma Aaron ne ne mma te sɛ deɛ wɔde afɔrebɔdeɛ biara fa asɔfoɔ so de ma Awurade no.
14 and thou schalt departe hem fro the myddis of the sones of Israel, that thei be myne.
Monam saa ɛkwan yi so bɛyi Lewifoɔ no afiri Israelfoɔ no mu ama me, na wɔayɛ me dea.
15 And aftirward entre thei in to the tabernacle of boond of pees, that thei serue me; and so thou schalt clense and schalt halewe hem, in to an offryng of the Lord, for bi fre yifte thei ben youun to me of the sones of Israel.
“Sɛ mote wɔn ho na mofa saa ɛkwan yi so de wɔn ma me a, afei, wɔbɛdi ahyɛnfirie wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu, adi wɔn dwuma.
16 Y haue take hem for the firste gendrid thingis that openen ech wombe in Israel;
Israelfoɔ mu nyinaa, wɔn na wɔyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ, na magye wɔn atom asi Israelfoɔ mmakan nyinaa anan. Mafa Lewifoɔ no sɛ wɔn ananmusifoɔ.
17 for alle the firste gendrid thingis of the sones of Israel ben myne, as wel of men as of beestis, fro the dai in which Y smoot ech firste gendrid thing in the loond of Egipt, Y halewide hem to me.
Ɛfiri sɛ, Israelfoɔ mmakan nyinaa yɛ me dea—nnipa ne mmoa nyinaa. Anadwo a mekumm Misraimfoɔ mmakan nyinaa no ara na mefaa wɔn de wɔn yɛɛ me nkurɔfoɔ.
18 And Y took the Leuytis for alle the firste gendrid children of the sones of Israel;
Mafa Lewifoɔ no asi Israelfoɔ mmakan nyinaa anan mu.
19 and Y yaf hem bi fre yifte to Aaron and hise sones, fro the myddis of the puple, that thei serue me for Israel, in the tabernacle of boond of pees, and that thei preie for hem, lest veniaunce be in the puple, if thei ben hardi to neiye to the seyntuarye.
Na mede Lewifoɔ no bɛkyɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima. Lewifoɔ no na wɔbɛyɛ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu nnwuma kronkron a anka ɛsɛ sɛ Israelfoɔ no na wɔyɛ, na wɔn na wɔbɛbɔ afɔdeɛ ama nkurɔfoɔ de ayɛ mpatadeɛ ama wɔn. Ɔyaredɔm biara renka Israelfoɔ no, nanso sɛ nnipa afoforɔ biara kɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu a, wɔbɛyareyare.”
20 And Moises and Aaron, and al the multitude of the sones of Israel, diden on the Leuitis tho thingis that the Lord comaundide to Moyses.
Enti, Mose ne Aaron ne Israelfoɔ no nyinaa faa ɛkwan a Awurade kyerɛɛ Mose no so pɛpɛɛpɛ de Lewifoɔ no maa Awurade.
21 And thei weren clensid, and thei waischiden her clothis; and Aaron reiside hem in the siyt of the Lord, and preiede for hem,
Lewifoɔ no dwiraa wɔn ho, sii wɔn nneɛma ɛnna Aaron de wɔn hyɛɛ Awurade nsa. Ɔyɛɛ wɔn ho mpatadwuma de tee wɔn ho.
22 that thei schulen be clensid, and schulden entre to her offices in to the tabernacle of boond of pees, bifor Aaron and hise sones; as the Lord comaundide to Moises of the Leuytis, so it was don.
Ɛno akyi, wɔkɔɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu sɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima aboafoɔ. Wɔyɛɛ biribiara sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Mose sɛ wɔnyɛ no.
23 And the Lord spak to Moises, and seide, This is lawe of Leuytis;
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
24 fro fyue and twentithe yeer and aboue thei schulen entre, for to mynystre in the tabernacle of boond of pees;
“Sɛ Lewini biara di mfeɛ aduonu enum a, ma no mfiri aseɛ nsom wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan mu,
25 and whanne thei han fillid the fiftithe yeer of age, thei schulen ceesse to serue.
na wɔdi mfeɛ aduonum a, wɔapɔn wɔn ho.
26 And thei schulen be the mynystris of her bretheren in the tabernacle of boond of pees, that thei kepe tho thingis that ben bitakun to hem; sothely thei schulen not do tho werkis; thus thou schalt dispose Leuytis in her kepyngis.
Sɛ wɔpɔn wɔn ho a, wɔtumi di dwuma nketenkete wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan mu hɔ. Wɔrenyɛ nnwuma a daa ɛbɛgye wɔn berɛ.”
