< Numbers 19 >

1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, and unto Aaron, saying,
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose kple Aron be,
2 'This [is] a statute of the law which Jehovah hath commanded, saying, Speak unto the sons of Israel, and they bring unto thee a red cow, a perfect one, in which there is no blemish, on which no yoke hath gone up;
“Esiae nye se si Yehowa de. Migblɔ na Israelviwo be woatsɔ nyinɔ dzĩ si ŋu kpɔtsɔtsɔ aɖeke mele o, eye womede kɔkuti kɔ nɛ kpɔ o la vɛ na mi.
3 and ye have given it unto Eleazar the priest, and he hath brought it out unto the outside of the camp, and hath slaughtered it before him.
Mitsɔe na nunɔla Eleazar, miana wòahee ayi asaɖa la godo, eye wòana ame aɖe nawui le eŋkume.
4 'And Eleazar the priest hath taken of its blood with his finger, and hath sprinkled over-against the front of the tent of meeting of her blood seven times;
Ekema nunɔla Eleazar ade eƒe asibidɛ ʋu la me, eye wòahlẽ ʋu la zi adre ɖe Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu lɔƒo.
5 and [one] hath burnt the cow before his eyes; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, besides her dung, he doth burn;
Le esia megbe la, wòana woatɔ dzo nyinɔ la, eƒe agbalẽ, eƒe lã, eƒe ʋu kple eƒe afɔdzi siaa le eŋkume.
6 and the priest hath taken cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and hath cast unto the midst of the burning of the cow;
Nunɔla Eleazar atsɔ sedati kple kakle ƒe alɔdze kple ka dzĩ ada ɖe dzo la me.
7 and the priest hath washed his garments, and hath bathed his flesh with water, and afterwards doth come in unto the camp, and the priest is unclean till the evening;
Le esia megbe la, nunɔla anya eƒe awuwo, ale tsi, atrɔ ayi asaɖa la me, eye eŋuti makɔ o va se ɖe fiẽ.
8 and he who is burning it doth wash his garments with water, and hath bathed his flesh with water, and is unclean till the evening.
Ame si tɔ dzo lã la hã anya eƒe awuwo, ale tsi, eye eya hã ŋuti makɔ o va se ɖe fiẽ.
9 'And a clean man hath gathered the ashes of the cow, and hath placed at the outside of the camp, in a clean place, and it hath become to the company of the sons of Israel a charge for waters of separation — it [is] a [cleansing];
“Ekema ame si ŋu kɔ la, aƒo nyinɔ la ƒe afi nu ƒu, eye woadae ɖe teƒe si ŋuti kɔ le asaɖa la godo afi si woadzrae ɖo na Israelviwo abe afi si woaku tsi le ene hena nuŋukɔkɔ ƒe wɔnawo na nu vɔ̃ ɖeɖe ɖa.
10 and he who is gathering the ashes of the heifer hath washed his garments, and is unclean till the evening; and it hath been to the sons of Israel, and to the sojourner who is sojourning in their midst, for a statute age-during.
Ame si ƒo ƒu nyinɔ la ƒe afi la anya eƒe awuwo, eye eŋuti makɔ o va se ɖe fiẽ. Esia nye se na Israelviwo kple amedzro siwo le wo dome la tegbetegbe.
11 'He who is coming against the dead body of any man — is unclean seven days;
“Ame sia ame si ka asi ame kuku ŋu la ŋuti makɔ o ŋkeke adre.
12 he doth cleanse himself for it on the third day, and on the seventh day he is clean; and if he cleanse not himself on the third day, then on the seventh day he is not clean.
Ele be wòakɔ eɖokui ŋuti le ŋkeke etɔ̃lia kple adrelia gbe kple tsi, si tso nyinɔ la ƒe afi me. Ekema eŋuti akɔ. Ne mewɔ esia le ŋkeke etɔ̃lia dzi o la, ekema eƒe ŋutimakɔmakɔ la ayi edzi adze le ŋkeke adrelia gɔ̃ hã ŋu.
13 Any one who is coming against the dead, against the body of man who dieth, and cleanseth not himself — the tabernacle of Jehovah he hath defiled, and that person hath been cut off from Israel, for water of separation is not sprinkled upon him; he is unclean; his uncleanness [is] still upon him.
Ame sia ame si aka asi ame kuku aɖe ŋu, eye mekɔ eɖokui ŋu le mɔ sia dzi o la gblẽ kɔ ɖo na Yehowa ƒe agbadɔ la, eye woaɖee ɖa le Israelviwo dome. Womehlẽ tsi kɔkɔe la ɖe eŋu o, eya ta makɔmakɔnyenye la gale eŋu ko.
14 'This [is] the law, when a man dieth in a tent: every one who is coming in unto the tent, and all that [is] in the tent, is unclean seven days;
“Se siwo dzi woawɔ ne ŋutsu aɖe ku le agbadɔ aɖe me la woe nye esiawo: Ame sia ame si ge ɖe agbadɔ la me kple ame siwo nɔ agbadɔ la me ɣe ma ɣi la ŋuti mekɔ o ŋkeke adre.
15 and every open vessel which hath no covering of thread upon it is unclean.
Nu sia nu si nu nutunu mele o la ŋuti mekɔ o.
16 'And every one who cometh, on the face of the field, against the pierced of a sword, or against the dead, or against a bone of man, or against a grave, is unclean seven days;
“Ne ame aɖe le gbedzi, eye wòka asi ame si wowu le aʋa me alo ame si ku le mɔ bubu aɖe nu ƒe kukua ŋuti alo ka asi ame kuku aɖe ƒe ƒu alo yɔdo ŋu la, eŋuti mekɔ o ŋkeke adre.
17 and they have taken for the unclean person of the ashes of the burning of the [cleansing], and he hath put upon it running water unto a vessel;
“Hena amea ŋuti kɔkɔ la, woatsɔ dzowɔ tso nyinɔ la ƒe numevɔsa ƒe dzowɔ me ade tsi dzidzi ƒe tsi me le tsiɖonu me.
18 and a clean person hath taken hyssop, and hath dipped [it] in water, and hath sprinkled on the tent, and on all the vessels, and on the persons who have been there, and on him who is coming against a bone, or against one pierced, or against the dead, or against a grave.
Ekema ame si ŋuti kɔ la, atsɔ kakle ƒe alɔdzewo ade tsi la me, eye wòahlẽ tsi la ɖe agbadɔ la kple ze kple gagbɛ siwo katã nɔ agbadɔ la me kple ame si ƒe agbadɔ la me nɔnɔ alo eƒe asikaka ameƒu alo ame kuku aɖe alo yɔdo aɖe ŋu na be eŋuti mekɔ o la ŋu.
19 'And the clean hath sprinkled [it] on the unclean on the third day, and on the seventh day, and hath cleansed him on the seventh day, and he hath washed his garments, and hath bathed with water, and hath been clean in the evening.
Woawɔ nu sia le ŋkeke etɔ̃lia kple adrelia gbewo. Emegbe la, amea anya eƒe awuwo, ale tsi, eye eŋuti akɔ le fiẽ.
20 'And the man who is unclean, and doth not cleanse himself, even that person hath been cut off from the midst of the assembly; for the sanctuary of Jehovah he hath defiled; water of separation is not sprinkled upon him; he [is] unclean.
“Ke ne ame aɖe ŋuti mekɔ o, gake wògbe be yemakɔ ye ɖokui ŋuti o la, woaɖee ɖa le ha me, elabena egblẽ kɔ ɖo na Yehowa ƒe kɔkɔeƒe la, eye esi womehlẽ ameŋukɔtsi la ɖe eŋu o ta la, eŋuti mekɔ o.
21 'And it hath been to them for a statute age-during, that he who is sprinkling the water of separation doth wash his garments, and he who is coming against the water of separation is unclean till the evening,
Esia nye se na mi tegbetegbe. Ele be ame si hlẽ tsi kɔkɔe la ɖe amea ŋu la nanya eƒe awuwo emegbe. Ame sia ame si ka asi tsi la ŋu la ŋu mekɔ o va se ɖe fiẽ.
22 and all against which the unclean person cometh is unclean, and the person who is coming against [it] is unclean till the evening.'
Nu sia nu si ŋu ame si ŋuti mekɔ o la ka asii la ŋu makɔ o va se ɖe fiẽ.”
