< Leviticus 5 >
1 'And when a person doth sin, and hath heard the voice of an oath, and he [is] witness, or hath seen, or hath known — if he declare not, then he hath borne his iniquity:
“‘Obiara a ɔnka bɔne bi a onim ho biribi ho hwee no di ho fɔ.
2 'Or when a person cometh against any thing unclean, or against a carcase of an unclean beast, or against a carcase of unclean cattle, or against a carcase of an unclean teeming creature, and it hath been hidden from him, and he unclean, and guilty;
“‘Obiara a ɔde ne nsa ka ade bi a amanne kwan so no ɛho ntew, te sɛ aboa bi a ne ho ntew funu, sɛ ɔyɛ wuram aboa, sɛ ɔyɛ afieboa anaa aboa a ɔwea wɔ fam no, mpo sɛ onnim sɛ ne ho agu fi na akyiri no ogye nʼafɔdi to mu,
3 'Or when he cometh against uncleanness of man, even any of his uncleanness whereby he is unclean, and it hath been hidden from him, and he hath known, and hath been guilty:
anaa sɛ obi anhyɛ da na ɔde ne nsa ka biribi a efi onipa mu a ɛho ntew na ɔte ne ho ase sɛ odi ho fɔ,
4 'Or when a person sweareth, speaking wrongfully with the lips to do evil, or to do good, even anything which man speaketh wrongfully with an oath, and it hath been hid from him; — when he hath known then he hath been guilty of one of these;
anaa sɛ obi annwene ho na ɔka ntam sɛ ɔbɛyɛ biribi a eye anaa ennye na akyiri no ohu nʼafɔdi;
5 'And it hath been when he is guilty of one of these, that he hath confessed concerning that which he hath sinned,
sɛ obi ani ba ne ho so wɔ eyinom biara mu a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔpae mu ka ne bɔne a wayɛ.
6 and hath brought in his guilt-offering to Jehovah for his sin which he hath sinned, a female out of the flock, a lamb, or a kid of the goats, for a sin-offering, and the priest hath made atonement for him, because of his sin.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde oguammere anaa abirekyibere bɔ afɔre ma Awurade wɔ ne bɔne ho asotwe ho. Ɔsɔfo na ɔbɛbɔ onipa ko no bɔne no ho afɔre ama no. Ɔsɔfo no nam saa afɔrebɔ yi so bɛpata ama no.
7 'And if his hand reach not to the sufficiency of a lamb, then he hath brought in his guilt-offering — he who hath sinned — two turtle-doves or two young pigeons to Jehovah, one for a sin-offering, and one for a burnt-offering;
“‘Sɛ ɔyɛ ohiani a ɔrennya oguamma mfa mma Awurade a, ɔmfa nturukuku abien anaa mmorɔnomamma abien mmra sɛ ne bɔne ho afɔrebɔde. Nnomaa no mu baako bɛyɛ ne bɔne no afɔrebɔde na ɔbaako ayɛ ne hyew afɔrebɔde.
8 and he hath brought them in unto the priest, and hath brought near that which [is] for a sin-offering first, and hath wrung off its head from its neck, and doth not separate [it],
Ɔde bɛma ɔsɔfo no na ɔde anomaa a odi kan no abɔ bɔne afɔre no. Obekyim aboa no kɔn nanso ɔrentew ne ti mfi so,
9 and he hath sprinkled of the blood of the sin-offering on the side of the altar, and that which is left of the blood is wrung out at the foundation of the altar; it [is] a sin-offering.
na wapete ne mogya no bi agu afɔremuka no ho. Mogya no nkae no, obehwie agu afɔremuka no ase. Eyi ne afɔrebɔ kwan a ɛpepa bɔne.
10 'And the second he maketh a burnt-offering, according to the ordinance, and the priest hath made atonement for him, because of his sin which he hath sinned, and it hath been forgiven him.
Na ɔsɔfo no de anomaa a ɔto so abien no bɛbɔ ɔhyew afɔre sɛnea ɔbɔɔ afɔre a edi kan no ara pɛ. Ɔsɔfo no nam saa afɔrebɔ yi so bɛpata ama nea wayɛ bɔne no, na ɛnam so ama wɔde ne bɔne akyɛ no.
11 'And if his hand reach not to two turtle-doves, or to two young pigeons, then he hath brought in his offering — he who hath sinned — a tenth of an ephah of flour for a sin-offering; he putteth no oil on it, nor doth he put on it frankincense, for it [is] a sin-offering,
“‘Sɛ ɔyɛ ohiani buruburoo a ɔrentumi mfa nturukuku anaa mmorɔnomamma mmɛbɔ ne bɔne ho afɔre a, ɔde asikresiam muhumuhu lita abien ne fa bɛba sɛ ne bɔne ho afɔrebɔde. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔde ɔsra ngo fra. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔde aduhuam nso gu so, efisɛ ɛyɛ bɔne afɔre.
12 and he hath brought it in unto the priest, and the priest hath taken a handful from it — the fulness of his hand — its memorial — and hath made perfume on the altar, according to the fire-offerings of Jehovah; it [is] a sin-offering.
Ɔde bɛma ɔsɔfo no. Na ɔsɔfo no asaw ne nsa ma de asi ne nyinaa anan na wahyew no wɔ afɔremuka no so ama Awurade sɛ afɔrebɔde biara. Eyi bɛyɛ ne bɔne ho afɔrebɔ.
13 'And the priest hath made atonement for him, for his sin which he hath sinned against one of these, and it hath been forgiven him, and [the remnant] hath been to the priest, like the present.'
Sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔsɔfo no nam saa afɔrebɔ yi so bɛpata ama onipa no na wɔde ne bɔne no bɛkyɛ no. Asikresiam a aka no, wɔde bɛma ɔsɔfo no te sɛ nnɔbae afɔrebɔde no ara pɛ.’”
14 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
Awurade hyɛɛ mmara maa Mose se,
15 'When a person committeth a trespass, and hath sinned through ignorance against the holy things of Jehovah, then he hath brought in his guilt-offering to Jehovah, a ram, a perfect one, out of the flock, at thy valuation [in] silver — shekels by the shekel of the sanctuary — for a guilt-offering.
“Sɛ obi anhyɛ da na ogu ade kronkron ho fi a, ɔde odwennini a ne ho nni dɛm a ɔfata sɛ mpata wɔ nʼafɔdi no ho bɛba abɛbɔ Awurade afɔre.
16 'And that which he hath sinned against the holy thing he repayeth, and its fifth is adding to it, and hath given it to the priest, and the priest maketh atonement for him with the ram of the guilt-offering, and it hath been forgiven him.
Ade kronkron a nipa no guu ho fi no nso, ɔde foforo besi anan na watua dekode no bo ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka ho sɛ asotwe. Ɔde ne nyinaa bɛma ɔsɔfo na ɔde Odwennini no abɔ bɔne afɔre no na wɔde ne bɔne akyɛ no.
17 'And when any person sinneth, and hath done [something against] one of all the commands of Jehovah [regarding things] which are not to be done, and hath not known, and he hath been guilty, and hath borne his iniquity,
“Sɛ obi anhyɛ da na obu Awurade mmara no bi so a, odi fɔ nti ɛsɛ sɛ otua afɔbude a Mose bɛhyɛ no.
18 'Then he hath brought in a ram, a perfect one, out of the flock, at thy valuation, for a guilt-offering, unto the priest; and the priest hath made atonement for him, for his ignorance in which he hath erred and he hath not known, and it hath been forgiven him;
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde odwennini anaa ɔpapo a onni dɛm brɛ ɔsɔfo sɛ ne bɔne no ho afɔrebɔde. Na ɔsɔfo no de ayɛ mpata ama no wɔ bɔne biara a ɔyɛe a wanhyɛ da no ho, na wɔde ne bɔne bɛkyɛ no.
19 it [is] a guilt-offering; he hath been certainly guilty before Jehovah.'
Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔbɔ saa afɔre no sɛ afɔdi afɔre, efisɛ odi fɔ pefee wɔ Awurade anim.”
