Mose 3 16

1 Yehowa ƒo nu na Mose le Aron ƒe viŋutsu eveawo ƒe ku megbe esime wote ɖe Yehowa ŋu.

And the Lord spoke to Moses after the two sons of Aaron died in bringing strange fire before the Lord, so they died.

2 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Gblɔ na nɔviwò, Aron be megayi Kɔkɔeƒe la le xɔmetsovɔ la megbe le nutsyɔnu si le nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ ɣe sia ɣi si dze eŋu o, ne menye nenema o la, aku, elabena medzena le lilikpo me le nutsyɔnu la tame.

And the Lord said to Moses, Speak to Aaron your brother, and let him not come in at all times into the holy place within the veil before the propitiatory, which is upon the ark of the testimony, and he shall not die; for I will appear in a cloud on the propitiatory.

3 “Aron age ɖe Kɔkɔeƒe la me ale: atsɔ nyitsuvi ɖe asi hena nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa kple agbo hena numevɔsa.

Thus shall Aaron enter into the holy place; with a calf of the herd for a sin-offering, and [having] a ram for a whole burnt offering.

4 Ado kɔmewu kɔkɔe la, eye wòado aklalawutewuiawo ɖe ete. Emegbe la, atsɔ aklalalidziblanu la abla ɖe eɖokui ŋu, eye wòatsɔ aklalatablanu la abla tae. Nu siawo nye awu kɔkɔewo, eya ta ele nɛ be wòale tsi hafi ado wo.

And he shall put on the consecrated linen tunic, and he shall have on his flesh the linen drawers, and shall gird himself with a linen girdle, and shall put on the linen cap, they are holy garments; and he shall bathe all his body in water, and shall put them on.

5 Israelviwo ana gbɔ̃tsu eve hena woƒe nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa kple agbo ɖeka hena woƒe numevɔsa.

And he shall take of the congregation of the children of Israel two kids of the goats for a sin-offering, and one lamb for a whole burnt offering.

6 “Gbã la, ele be wòatsɔ nyitsuvi fɛ̃ la asa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa na Yehowa ɖe eɖokui ta, eye wòalé avu ɖe eya ŋutɔ kple eƒe ƒomea ta.

And Aaron shall bring the calf for his own sin-offering, and shall make atonement for himself and for his house.

7 Emegbe la, akplɔ gbɔ̃tsu eveawo ava Yehowa ŋkume le Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu,

And he shall take the two goats, and place them before the Lord by the door of the tabernacle of witness.

8 eye wòadzidze nu, anya gbɔ̃tsu si nye Yehowa tɔ kple esi nye Azazel tɔ, si ŋu wòaɖe asi le.

and Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats, one lot for the Lord, and the other for the scape-goat.

9 Aron asa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa kple gbɔ̃tsu si nye Yehowa tɔ.

And Aaron shall bring forward the goat on which the lot for the Lord fell, and shall offer him for a sin-offering.

10 Woatsɔ gbɔ̃tsu evelia si nye Azazel tɔ la agbagbe ava Yehowa ŋkume. Woaɖe dukɔwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ada ɖe edzi, eye woanyae ɖo ɖe Azazel gbɔ le gbedzi.

and the goat upon which the lot of the scape-goat came, he shall present alive before the Lord, to make atonement upon him, so as to send him away as a scape-goat, and he shall send him into the wilderness.

11 “Ne Aron tsɔ nyitsu la sa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa ɖe eya ŋutɔ kple eƒe ƒometɔwo ta vɔ la,

And Aaron shall bring the calf for his sin, and he shall make atonement for himself and for his house, and he shall kill the calf for his sin-offering.

12 atsɔ dzoɖesonu, aɖe aka xɔxɔwo tso Yehowa ƒe vɔsamlekpui dzi ade eme, eye wòalɔ dzudzɔdonu si wotu memie la ƒe asiʋlo eve ayi xɔmetsovɔ la godo.

And he shall take his censer full of coals of fire off the altar, which is before the Lord; and he shall fill his hands with fine compound incense, and shall bring it within the veil.

13 Atsɔ dzudzɔdonu la akɔ ɖe dzoka xɔxɔawo dzi le afi ma, le Yehowa ŋkume, ale be dzudzɔdonu la ƒe dzudzɔ naxɔ amenuvevezikpui la dzi le nubablaɖaka la tame, ale be magakpɔ nubablaɖaka la tame ne wòaku o.

And he shall put the incense on the fire before the Lord, and the smoke of the incense shall cover the mercy-seat over the tables of testimony, and he shall not die.

14 Atsɔ nyitsu la ƒe ʋu ƒe ɖe ade asibidɛ eme, eye wòahlẽ ʋu la ɖe amenuvevezikpui la ƒe ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo, eye wòagahlẽe zi adre ɖe eŋgɔ.

And he shall take of the blood of the calf, and sprinkle with his finger on the mercy-seat eastward: before the mercy-seat shall he sprinkle seven times of the blood with his finger.

15 “Ekema ado go, eye wòasa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa kple ameawo ƒe gbɔ̃tsu la, eye wòahlẽ eƒe ʋu ɖe xɔmetsovɔ la me, ahlẽe ɖe amenuvevezikpui la dzi kple eŋgɔ abe ale si wòwɔ kple nyitsu la ƒe ʋu ene.

And he shall kill the goat for the sin-offering that is for the people, before the Lord; and he shall bring in of its blood within the veil, and shall do with its blood as he did with the blood of the calf, and shall sprinkle its blood on the mercy-seat, in front of the mercy-seat.

16 Ekema aɖe nu vɔ̃ ɖa le teƒe kɔkɔe la ŋu, elabena Israelviwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo na wòzu nu makɔmakɔ, eye wòagaɖe nu vɔ̃ ɖa le Agbadɔ si le ameawo dome, eye woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ƒo xlãe la hã ŋu.

and he shall make atonement for the sanctuary on account of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and for their trespasses in the matter of all their sins; and thus shall he do to the tabernacle of witness established amongst them in the midst of their uncleanness.

17 Ame bubu aɖeke mekpɔ mɔ anɔ Agbadɔ la me ne Aron ge ɖe eme be yeaɖe nu vɔ̃ ɖa le Teƒe Kɔkɔe la ŋu o va se ɖe esime wòalé avu le eya ŋutɔ ɖokui, eƒe aƒemetɔwo kple Israelviwo katã ta, eye wòagado go.

and there shall be no man in the tabernacle of witness, when he goes in to make atonement in the holy place, until he shall have come out; and he shall make atonement for himself, and for his house, and for all the congregation of the children of Israel.

18 “Azɔ la, ado go ayi vɔsamlekpui la gbɔ le Yehowa ŋkume, eye wòaɖe nu vɔ̃ ɖa le eŋu. Ele be wòasisi nyitsu la kple gbɔ̃tsu la ƒe ʋu ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ƒe lãdzowo ŋu,

And he shall come forth to the altar that is before the Lord, and he shall make atonement upon it; and he shall take of the blood of the calf, and of the blood of the goat, and shall put it on the horns of the altar round about.

19 eye wòahlẽ ʋu la ƒe ɖe ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi zi adre kple eƒe asibidɛ. Ale wòakɔ eŋuti tso Israelviwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo me, eye wòawɔe kɔkɔe.

And he shall sprinkle some of the blood upon it seven times with his finger, and shall purge it, and hallow it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.

20 “Ne ewu nu vɔ̃wo ɖeɖe ɖa le Teƒe Kɔkɔe la, Agbadɔ blibo la kple vɔsamlekpui la ŋu ƒe wɔnawo nu la, ahe gbɔ̃ gbagbe si wotia na Azazel la vɛ.

And he shall finish making atonement for the sanctuary and for the tabernacle of witness, and for the altar; and he shall make a cleansing for the priests, and he shall bring the living goat;

21 Ada eƒe asi eveawo ɖe gbɔ̃tsu la ƒe ta dzi, eye wòaʋu Israelviwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã me ɖe edzi. Adro woƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã ɖe gbɔ̃ la ƒe ta dzi, eye wòana ame aɖe si wotia da ɖi la nakplɔ gbɔ̃ la ayi ɖe gbedzi.

and Aaron shall lay his hands on the head of the live goat, and he shall declare over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their unrighteousness, and all their sins; and he shall lay them upon the head of the live goat, and shall send him by the hand of a ready man into the wilderness.

22 Ale gbɔ̃ la atsɔ ameawo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã ayi gbedadaƒo, eye ame la aɖe asi le gbɔ̃ la ŋu ɖe gbedadaƒo afi ma.

And the goat shall bear their unrighteousnesses upon him into a desert land; and Aaron shall send away the goat into the wilderness.

23 “Azɔ la, Aron agayi Agbadɔ la me, eye wòaɖe aklalawu siwo wòdo esi wòyi xɔmetsovɔ la godo, eye wòagblẽ wo ɖe afi ma le Agbadɔ la me.

And Aaron shall enter into the tabernacle of witness, and shall put off the linen garment, which he had put on, as he entered into the holy place, and shall lay it by there.

24 Esia megbe la, ale tsi le teƒe kɔkɔe aɖe, agado awuawo, ayi aɖasa eya ŋutɔ ƒe numevɔ kple ameawo ƒe numevɔ, eye wòalé avu ɖe eya ŋutɔ kple ameawo ta.

And he shall bathe his body in water in the holy place, and shall put on his raiment, and shall go out and offer the whole burnt offering for himself and the whole burnt offering for the people: and shall make atonement for himself and for his house, and for the people, as for the priests.

25 Ekema atɔ dzo nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsalãwo ƒe ami ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi.

And he shall offer the fat for the sin-offering on the altar.

26 “Ame si kplɔ gbɔ̃tsu la yi na Azazel le gbedzi la, agbɔ ava nya eƒe awuwo, ale tsi, eye wòayi asaɖa la me.

And he that sends forth the goat that has been set apart to be let go, shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and afterwards shall enter into the camp.

27 Woatsɔ nyitsu kple gbɔ̃tsu si Aron tsɔ sa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa, eye wòtsɔ woƒe ʋu yi Teƒe Kɔkɔe la hena avuléle la ayi asaɖa la godo, eye woatɔ dzo wo kpe ɖe woƒe agbalẽ kple dɔmenuwo ŋu.

And the calf for the sin-offering, and the goat for the sin-offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy place, they shall carry forth out of the camp, and burn them with fire, even their skins and their flesh and their dung.

28 Emegbe la, ame si tɔ dzo lãawo la, anya eƒe awuwo, ale tsi, eye wòatrɔ ayi asaɖa la me.

And he that burns them shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and afterwards he shall enter into the camp.

29 “Esia nanye ɖoɖo mavɔ na mi: le ɣleti adrelia ƒe ŋkeke ewolia dzi la, ele be miagbe nu le mia ɖokuiwo gbɔ, eye miawɔ dɔ aɖeke o, eɖanye dzɔleaƒea loo alo amedzro si le mia dome o,

And this shall be a perpetual statute for you; in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall humble your souls, and shall do no work, the native and the stranger who abides amongst you.

30 elabena le ŋkeke sia dzi woalé avu na mi, akɔ mia ŋuti. Ekema le Yehowa ŋkume la, mia ŋuti akɔ tso miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã me.

For in this day he shall make an atonement for you, to cleanse you from all your sins before the Lord, and you shall be purged.

31 Enye dzudzɔgbe na mi, miawɔ ŋkeke la ŋu dɔ na nutsitsidɔ. Esia nye se mavɔ na mi.

This shall be to you a most holy sabbath, a rest, and you shall humble your souls; it is a perpetual ordinance.

32 Le dzidzime bubuwo ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo me la, nunɔlagã si wosi ami na, eye wokɔ eŋuti ɖe Tɔgbuia Aron teƒe lae awɔ ŋutikɔkɔ kɔnu sia. Eyae nye ame si ado aklalawu kɔkɔeawo,

The priest whoever they shall anoint shall make atonement, and whoever they shall consecrate to exercise the priestly office after his father; and he shall put on the linen robe, the holy garment.

33 eye wòakɔ Teƒe Kɔkɔe la, Agbadɔ la, vɔsamlekpui la, nunɔlawo kple ameawo ŋu.

And he shall make atonement for the most holy place, and the tabernacle of witness; and he shall make atonement for the altar, and for the priests; and he shall make atonement for all the congregation.

34 “Esia anye se mavɔ na mi; woalé avu ɖe Israelviwo ta ƒe sia ƒe le woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta.” Eye wowɔ abe ale si Yehowa de se na Mose ene. Eye miawɔ abe ale si Yehowa de se na Mose ene.

And this shall be to you a perpetual statute to make atonement for the children of Israel for all their sins: it shall be done once in the year, as the Lord commanded Moses.
