< Mose 3 17 >
1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
2 “Ƒo nu na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo kple Israelviwo katã, eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Esiae nye se si Yehowa de:
Speake vnto Aaron, and to his sonnes, and to all the children of Israel, and say vnto them, This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded, saying,
3 Israelvi ɖe sia ɖe si asa vɔ kple nyitsu, alẽvi alo gbɔ̃ le asaɖa la me alo egodo
Whosoeuer he be of the house of Israel that killeth a bullocke, or lambe, or goate in the hoste, or that killeth it out of the hoste,
4 le esime wòatsɔe ava Mawu ƒe Agbadɔ la nu bena woasa vɔ na Yehowa le Yehowa ƒe Agbadɔ la ƒe ŋkume teƒe la, woabu ame ma be eɖi fɔ le ʋukɔkɔɖi me. Ekɔ ʋu ɖi, eye ele be woaɖee ɖa le eƒe amewo dome.
And bringeth it not vnto the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation to offer an offring vnto the Lord before the Tabernacle of the Lord, blood shalbe imputed vnto that man: he hath shed blood, wherefore that man shall be cut off from among his people.
5 Se sia ƒe taɖodzinue nye wòana be Israelviwo magasa vɔ le gbedzi o, ke boŋ wòana be woatsɔ woƒe vɔsanuwo vɛ na nunɔla la le Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu, woatɔ dzo ami la abe ʋeʋẽ lĩlĩlĩ ene, wòanye nu si adze Yehowa ŋu, eye wòado dzidzɔ nɛ.
Therefore the children of Israel shall bring their offrings, which they would offer abroad in the fielde, and present the vnto ye Lord at the doore of the Tabernacle of ye Congregation by ye Priest, and offer them for peace offrings vnto the Lord.
6 Nu sia wɔwɔ ana nunɔla la nate ŋu ahlẽ ʋu la ɖe Yehowa ƒe vɔsamlekpui la dzi, le Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu, eye wòatɔ dzo lãwo ƒe ami abe ʋeʋẽ lĩlĩlĩ ene na Yehowa. Nu sia adze Yehowa ŋu eye wòado dzidzɔ nɛ.
Then the Priest shall sprinkle the blood vpon the Altar of the Lord before the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and burne the fat for a sweete sauour vnto the Lord.
7 Woawɔ alea, ale be amewo masa vɔ na gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo le gbedzi o. Esia anye se na mi tegbetegbe tso dzidzime yi dzidzime.’
And they shall no more offer their offerings vnto deuils, after whom they haue gone a whoring: this shalbe an ordinance for euer vnto them in their generations.
8 “Gblɔ na wo be, ‘Israelvi aɖe alo amedzro aɖe si le mia dome, ame si asa numevɔ alo vɔsa bubu aɖe,
Also thou shalt say vnto them, whosoeuer he be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers which soiourne among them, that offreth a burnt offring or sacrifice,
9 eye metsɔe va Mawu ƒe Agbadɔ la nu be wòasa vɔ la na Yehowa o la, woaɖe ame ma ɖa le eƒe amewo dome.
And bringeth it not vnto ye doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation to offer it vnto the Lord, euen that man shall be cut off from his people.
10 “‘Mado dɔmedzoe ɖe ame sia ame, Israelvi loo alo amedzro si le mia dome, si aɖu lã aɖe ƒe ʋu la ŋu. Maɖee ɖa le eƒe amewo dome.
Likewise whosoeuer he be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that soiourne among them, that eateth any blood, I will euen set my face against that person that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people.
11 Esi lã aɖe ƒe agbe le eƒe ʋu me ta la, metsɔ lãwo ƒe ʋu na mi be miahlẽ ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi abe miaƒe luʋɔwo ŋuti kɔkɔ ene. Ʋue léa avu, elabena eyae nye agbe la.
For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I haue giuen it vnto you to offer vpon the altar, to make an atonement for your soules: for this blood shall make an atonement for the soule.
12 Nu sia tae mede se na Israelviwo alo amedzro siwo le wo dome la be womekpɔ mɔ aɖu lã aɖeke ƒe ʋu o ɖo.
Therefore I saide vnto ye children of Israel, None of you shall eate blood: neither the stranger that soiourneth among you, shall eate blood.
13 “‘Ame sia ame, Israelvi loo alo amedzro si le mia dome, si yi adegbe, eye wòwu lã aɖe alo xevi aɖe, si ŋu se ɖe mɔ le be woaɖu la, ele nɛ be wòatsyɔ ʋu la akɔ ɖe anyigba, eye wòakplɔ ke atsyɔ edzi,
Moreouer whosoeuer he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that soiourne among the, which by hunting taketh any beast or foule that may be eaten, he shall powre out the blood thereof, and couer it with dust:
14 elabena ʋue nye agbe la, eya tae megblɔ na Israelviwo be womaɖui gbeɖegbeɖe o, elabena xevi ɖe sia ɖe kple lã ɖe sia ɖe ƒe agbee nye eƒe ʋu, eya ta ele be woatsrɔ̃ ame sia ame si aɖu lã ƒe ʋu la.
For ye life of all flesh is his blood, it is ioyned with his life: therefore I sayd vnto the children of Israel, Ye shall eate the blood of no flesh: for the life of al flesh is the blood thereof: whosoeuer eateth it, shalbe cut off.
15 “‘Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, ele na ame sia ame, Israelvi alo amedzro, si aɖu lã aɖe si ku le eɖokui si alo lã aɖe si lã lénu aɖe vuvu la, be wòanya eƒe awuwo, ale tsi, eye eƒe ŋuti mekɔ o va se ɖe fiẽ. Esia megbe la, eƒe ŋuti akɔ.
And euery person that eateth it which dyeth alone, or that which is torne with beastes, whether it be one of the same countrey or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes, and wash himselfe in water, and be vncleane vnto the euen: after he shalbe cleane.
16 Ke ne menya eƒe awuwo o, eye mele tsi hã o la, ekema eya ŋutɔ akpɔ eyomedzenu.’”
But if he wash them not, nor wash his flesh, then he shall beare his iniquitie.
