Mose 3 22
1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose bena,
And Yhwh spake unto Moses, saying,
2 “Gblɔ na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo be woade bubu vɔsa kɔkɔe siwo ŋu Israelviwo kɔ nam la ŋu, ale be womaƒo ɖi nye ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la o. Nyee nye Yehowa.
Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, that they separate themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, and that they profane not my holy name in those things which they hallow unto me: I am Yhwh.
3 “Tso azɔ dzi yi mavɔmavɔ me la, ne nunɔla aɖe si ŋu mekɔ o, tsɔ lã siwo amewo tsɔ va sa vɔe alo ka asi nu si Israelviwo tsɔ vɛ na Yehowa ŋu la, woaɖe nunɔlanyenye la le edzi, elabena nyee nye Yehowa.
Say unto them, Whosoever he be of all your seed among your generations, that goeth unto the holy things, which the children of Israel hallow unto Yhwh, having his uncleanness upon him, that soul shall be cut off from my presence: I am Yhwh.
4 “‘Ne Aron viwo dometɔ aɖe nye kpodɔléla alo dze abi si le tsi tsyɔm la, mekpɔ mɔ aɖu vɔsanu kɔkɔewo o va se ɖe esime eƒe lãme nasẽ. Ne nunɔla aɖe ka asi ame kuku aɖe ŋu alo ŋutsu si nye tsi, eye eŋu mekɔ o ŋu,
What man soever of the seed of Aaron is a leper, or hath a running issue; he shall not eat of the holy things, until he be clean. And whoso toucheth any thing that is unclean by the dead, or a man whose seed goeth from him;
5 alo wòka asi lã tata alo lã makɔmakɔ aɖe ŋu alo wòka asi ame si ŋuti mekɔ o le nane ta la,
Or whosoever toucheth any creeping thing, whereby he may be made unclean, or a man of whom he may take uncleanness, whatsoever uncleanness he hath;
6 nunɔla ma ŋu mekɔ o va se ɖe fiẽ, eye maɖu vɔsanu kɔkɔe aɖeke o va se ɖe esime wòale tsi le fiẽ hafi.
The soul which hath touched any such shall be unclean until even, and shall not eat of the holy things, unless he wash his flesh with water.
7 Ne ɣe ɖo to la, ekema eŋu akɔ, eye wòate ŋu aɖu nu kɔkɔe la azɔ, elabena eya dzie wòanɔ agbe ɖo.
And when the sun is down, he shall be clean, and shall afterward eat of the holy things; because it is his food.
8 Mekpɔ mɔ aɖu lã aɖeke si ku le eɖokui si alo lã si lã wɔadã aɖe vuvu o, elabena nu sia ana wòagblẽ kɔ ɖo na eɖokui. Nyee nye Yehowa.
That which dieth of itself, or is torn with beasts, he shall not eat to defile himself therewith: I am Yhwh.
9 “‘Gblɔ na nunɔlawo be woawɔ se siawo dzi nyuie, ne menye nenema o la, woaɖi fɔ, eye woaku le se siawo dzi dada ta. Nyee nye Yehowa, ame si kɔ wo ŋuti.
They shall therefore keep mine ordinance, lest they bear sin for it, and die therefore, if they profane it: I Yhwh do sanctify them.
10 “‘Ame si menye nunɔla o la mekpɔ mɔ aɖu vɔsanu kɔkɔe la o. Nunɔla ƒe amedzro alo agbatedɔwɔla mekpɔ mɔ aɖu nu sia o.
There shall no stranger eat of the holy thing: a sojourner of the priest, or an hired servant, shall not eat of the holy thing.
11 Ke ame bubu siwo ate ŋu aɖui koe nye kluvi si nunɔla aɖe ƒle kple eya ŋutɔ ƒe ga kple vi siwo kluvi la dzi le nunɔla la ƒe aƒe me.
But if the priest buy any soul with his money, he shall eat of it, and he that is born in his house: they shall eat of his meat.
12 Ne nunɔla aɖe ƒe vinyɔnu ɖe srɔ̃ tso to bubu me la, mekpɔ mɔ aɖu nu kɔkɔe la o.
If the priest’s daughter also be married unto a stranger, she may not eat of an offering of the holy things.
13 Ke ne enye ahosi alo eƒe srɔ̃ɖeɖe me gblẽ, viŋutsu aɖeke mele esi akpɔ edzi o, eye wògatrɔ va fofoa ƒe aƒe me la, ekema agate ŋu akpɔ gome le fofoa ƒe nuɖuɖu me. Le ame siawo megbe la, ame siwo mele nunɔlawo ƒe ƒomewo me o la mekpɔ mɔ aɖu nu sia o.
But if the priest’s daughter be a widow, or divorced, and have no child, and is returned unto her father’s house, as in her youth, she shall eat of her father’s meat: but there shall no stranger eat thereof.
14 “‘Ne amedzro aɖe ɖu nu kɔkɔe la le ŋuɖeɖi me la, axe nu si wòɖu la ƒe fe na nunɔla, eye wòatsɔ home la ƒe memama atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka akpe ɖe eŋu,
And if a man eat of the holy thing unwittingly, then he shall put the fifth part thereof unto it, and shall give it unto the priest with the holy thing.
15 elabena ame siwo mekpɔ mɔ aɖu vɔsanu kɔkɔe la o la magblẽ kɔ ɖo na vɔsanu kɔkɔe siwo Israelviwo tsɔ vɛ la o, elabena Yehowae wotsɔ vɔsanu siawo vɛ na.
And they shall not profane the holy things of the children of Israel, which they offer unto Yhwh;
16 Ne ame aɖe da le se sia dzi la, eɖi fɔ, eye wòde eɖokui dzɔgbevɔ̃e gã aɖe me, elabena eɖu nunana kɔkɔe la, elabena nyee nye Yehowa, ame si kɔa nunanawo ŋuti.’”
Or suffer them to bear the iniquity of trespass, when they eat their holy things: for I Yhwh do sanctify them.
17 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
And Yhwh spake unto Moses, saying,
18 “Ƒo nu na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo kple Israelviwo katã, eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Ne mia dometɔ aɖe, dzɔleaƒea alo amedzro si le Isreal sa numevɔ na Yehowa abe adzɔgbeɖefexexe ene loo alo nunana le lɔlɔ̃nu ene la,
Speak unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and say unto them, Whatsoever he be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers in Israel, that will offer his oblation for all his vows, and for all his freewill offerings, which they will offer unto Yhwh for a burnt offering;
19 Yehowa axɔe, ne enye lãtsu si de blibo, eye wònye nyitsuvi fɛ̃ alo alẽ alo gbɔ̃.
Ye shall offer at your own will a male without blemish, of the beeves, of the sheep, or of the goats.
20 Mele be woana nu si ŋu kpɔtsɔtsɔ aɖeke le la o, elabena Mawu maxɔe o.
But whatsoever hath a blemish, that shall ye not offer: for it shall not be acceptable for you.
21 Ne ame aɖe be yeasa akpedavɔ na Yehowa tso eƒe lãhawo me, abe adzɔgbeɖefexexe ene loo alo abe nu si tso eƒe dzi me nana ko ene la, ele be wòana lã aɖe si de blibo. Ne mele alea o la, Yehowa maxɔ eƒe nunana la o.
And whosoever offereth a sacrifice of peace offerings unto Yhwh to accomplish his vow, or a freewill offering in beeves or sheep, it shall be perfect to be accepted; there shall be no blemish therein.
22 Womatsɔ lã si nye ŋkuagbãtɔ alo lã si afi aɖe gblẽ na alo lã si dze abi alo akpa alo le ŋutigbalẽmedɔ bubu aɖe lém la vɛ na Yehowa o. Medze na numevɔsa le Yehowa ƒe vɔsamlekpui la dzi o.
Blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed, ye shall not offer these unto Yhwh, nor make an offering by fire of them upon the altar unto Yhwh.
23 Ne nane de gbɔ edzi alo nane mede tututu o le nyitsu alo alẽ si wotsɔ vɛ ƒe ŋutilã ŋu la, woate ŋu anae abe lɔlɔ̃nununana ene, ke menye hena adzɔgbeɖefexexe o.
Either a bullock or a lamb that hath any thing superfluous or lacking in his parts, that mayest thou offer for a freewill offering; but for a vow it shall not be accepted.
24 Womatsɔ lã si nuvevi wɔ voku na alo lã si wota la ana Yehowa ɣe aɖeke ɣi o.
Ye shall not offer unto Yhwh that which is bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut; neither shall ye make any offering thereof in your land.
25 Amedzro siwo le mia dome kple Israelviwo siaa woawɔ se siawo dzi le vɔsanuwo nana me, elabena Mawu maxɔ lã si ŋu nane gblẽ le la na vɔsa sia o.’”
Neither from a stranger’s hand shall ye offer the bread of your God of any of these; because their corruption is in them, and blemishes be in them: they shall not be accepted for you.
26 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
And Yhwh spake unto Moses, saying,
27 “Ne wodzi nyivi alo alẽvi alo gbɔ̃vi aɖe la, woana wòanɔ dadaa gbɔ ŋkeke adre. Tso ŋkeke enyilia dzi la, woaxɔe abe dzovɔsa ene na Yehowa.
When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is brought forth, then it shall be seven days under the dam; and from the eighth day and thenceforth it shall be accepted for an offering made by fire unto Yhwh.
28 Mègawu nyi alo alẽ kple via le ŋkeke ɖeka dzi o.
And whether it be cow or ewe, ye shall not kill it and her young both in one day.
29 “Ne èsa akpedavɔ na Yehowa la, sae ale be woate ŋu axɔe na wò.
And when ye will offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto Yhwh, offer it at your own will.
30 Ele be woaɖui gbe ma gbe ke; mègagblẽ eƒe ɖeke ɖi va se ɖe ŋdi o. Nyee nye Yehowa.
On the same day it shall be eaten up; ye shall leave none of it until the morrow: I am Yhwh.
31 “Ele be mialé nye seawo me ɖe asi, eye miawɔ wo dzi. Nyee nye Yehowa.
Therefore shall ye keep my commandments, and do them: I am Yhwh.
32 Migaƒo ɖi nye ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la o. Ele be Israelviwo nabum ame kɔkɔe. Nyee nye Yehowa, ame si wɔ mi kɔkɔe,
Neither shall ye profane my holy name; but I will be hallowed among the children of Israel: I am Yhwh which hallow you,
33 eye mekplɔ mi tso Egipte be manye miaƒe Mawu. Nyee nye Yehowa.”
That brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am Yhwh.
