Mose 3 27
1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Ƒo nu na Israelviwo, eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Ne ame aɖe ɖe adzɔgbe tɔxɛ aɖe be yeatsɔ ame aɖewo ana Yehowa to ga home si dze be woaxe ɖe wo ta me la,
“Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘When a man consecrates a person to the LORD in a vow, according to your valuation,
3 ekema ɖe ŋutsu si xɔ tso ƒe blaeve yi blaade nu la ana klosalo kpekpeme kilogram afã ɖe Kɔkɔeƒe la ƒe nudanu nu.
your valuation of a male from twenty years old to sixty years old shall be fifty shekels of silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary.
4 Nenye be nyɔnue la, ana klosalo kpekpeme kilogram ƒe mama etɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka.
If she is a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels.
5 Ɖe ŋutsuvi si xɔ tso ƒe atɔ̃ va se ɖe blaeve nu la, ana klosalo kilogram ƒe mama atɔ̃ ƒe ɖeka, eye ɖe nyɔnuvi si xɔ tso ƒe atɔ̃ va se ɖe blaeve nu la, ana klosalo gram alafa ɖeka kple ewo.
If the person is from five years old to twenty years old, then your valuation shall be for a male twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels.
6 Woaxe gram blaatɔ̃ vɔ atɔ̃ ɖe ŋutsuvi si xɔ tso ɣleti ɖeka va se ɖe ƒe atɔ̃ la nu, eye woaxe klosalo gram blaetɔ̃ vɔ atɔ̃ ɖe nyɔnuvi si xɔ tso ɣleti ɖeka va se ɖe ƒe atɔ̃ la nu.
If the person is from a month old to five years old, then your valuation shall be for a male five shekels of silver, and for a female your valuation shall be three shekels of silver.
7 Ŋutsu si xɔ wu ƒe blaade la axe klosalo gram blaatɔ̃ vɔ atɔ̃, eye nyɔnu si xɔ wu ƒe blaade la axe klosalo gram blaetɔ̃ vɔ atɔ̃.
If the person is from sixty years old and upward; if he is a male, then your valuation shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels.
8 Ke ne ame si le adzɔgbe la ɖem da ahe ale gbegbe be mate ŋu axe fe si wòle be wòaxe o la, woakplɔe va nunɔla la gbɔ, eya kple nunɔla la naɖo aɖaŋu, eye wòaxe nu si nunɔla la aɖo nɛ la.
But if he is poorer than your valuation, then he shall be set before the priest, and the priest shall assign a value to him. The priest shall assign a value according to his ability to pay.
9 “‘Ke ne nu si amea tsɔ ɖe adzɔgbee la nye lã si dzi woda asi ɖo be woatsɔ asa vɔe na Yehowa la, ne wotsɔ lã sia ɖe adzɔgbee la, ele kɔkɔe na Yehowa.
“‘If it is an animal of which men offer an offering to the LORD, all that any man gives of such to the LORD becomes holy.
10 Mele be adzɔgbeɖela la natrɔ eƒe ta me o; matrɔ ta me le etsɔtsɔ na Yehowa ŋu loo alo atsɔ nu nyui aɖo gbegblẽa teƒe alo atsɔ gbegblẽa aɖo nyuia teƒe o. Ne etrɔ ta me la, ekema lã si wòɖɔli kple esi wòtsɔ ɖɔlii siaa le kɔkɔe.
He shall not alter it, nor exchange it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good. If he shall at all exchange animal for animal, then both it and that for which it is exchanged shall be holy.
11 Ke ne lã si wòɖe adzɔgbe be yeatsɔ asa vɔe nye lã makɔmakɔ, lã si womaxɔ abe vɔsa na Yehowa ene o la, ele be wòatsɔ lã la ayi na nunɔla,
If it is any unclean animal, of which they do not offer as an offering to the LORD, then he shall set the animal before the priest;
12 ame si akpɔe ne lã la nyo alo menyo o. Ga home si ƒe asi nunɔla la ado ɖe lã la ŋu la, nenema ko wòanɔ.
and the priest shall evaluate it, whether it is good or bad. As the priest evaluates it, so it shall be.
13 Ne lã la nye lã si woate ŋu atsɔ asa vɔe, gake amea di be yeaxe fe ɖe eteƒe la, ekema axe ga home si nunɔla la agblɔ nɛ kple ga home la ƒe mama atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka akpe ɖe eŋu.
But if he will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of it to its valuation.
14 “‘Ne ame aɖe tsɔ eƒe aƒe abe nu si ŋuti kɔ ene na Yehowa la, nunɔla la akpɔ aƒea ƒe nyonyo alo manyomanyo dzi ɖa. Ga home si ƒe asi nunɔla la ado ɖe aƒea ŋu la, nenema ko wòanɔ.
“‘When a man dedicates his house to be holy to the LORD, then the priest shall evaluate it, whether it is good or bad. As the priest evaluates it, so it shall stand.
15 Ne ame si tsɔ eƒe aƒe na agaxɔe la, ele nɛ be wòatsɔ ga home la ƒe atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka akpe ɖe ga home la ŋu, eye aƒea agazu etɔ.
If he who dedicates it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall be his.
16 “‘Ne ame aɖe tsɔ eƒe anyigba ƒe akpa aɖe na Yehowa la, do asi ɖe eŋu ɖe eƒe lolome kple nuku agbɔsɔsɔ si woate ŋu aƒã ɖe edzi la nu. Anyigba si dzi woate ŋu aƒã lu kilogram blaeve ɖo la naxɔ klosaloga ewo.
“‘If a man dedicates to the LORD part of the field of his possession, then your valuation shall be according to the seed for it. The sowing of a homer of barley shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.
17 Ne ame aɖe tsɔ eƒe anyigba na Yehowa le Aseyetsoƒe la me la, ekema nutɔ la naxe ga home la katã.
If he dedicates his field from the Year of Jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand.
18 Ke ne etsɔe na le Aseyetsoƒe la megbe la, ekema ga home si wòaxe la aku ɖe ƒe siwo susɔ hafi Aseyetsoƒe bubu nagaɖo la ŋu.
But if he dedicates his field after the Jubilee, then the priest shall reckon to him the money according to the years that remain to the Year of Jubilee; and an abatement shall be made from your valuation.
19 Ne amea di be yeagaxɔ anyigba la la, ekema ele nɛ be wòaxe ga home si nunɔla la ɖo nɛ kple ga home la ƒe mama atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka. Ekema anyigba la agazu etɔ.
If he who dedicated the field will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall remain his.
20 “‘Ke ne eɖo be yemagbugbɔ anyigba la axɔ o, alo wòdzrae na ame bubu aɖe, eye wòna anyigba la zu Yehowa tɔ le Aseyetsoƒe la me la, ekema magate ŋu axɔe o.
If he will not redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more;
21 Ne woɖe asi le anyigba la ŋu le Aseyetsoƒe la me la, ekema anyigba la azu Yehowa tɔ abe anyigba si wotsɔ nɛ ene. Woatsɔe na nunɔla la.
but the field, when it goes out in the Jubilee, shall be holy to the LORD, as a devoted field. It shall be owned by the priests.
22 “‘Ne ame aɖe tsɔ anyigba si eya ŋutɔ ƒle, eye menye eƒe ƒome ƒe anyigba ƒe akpa aɖeke o na Yehowa la,
“‘If he dedicates a field to the LORD which he has bought, which is not of the field of his possession,
23 ekema nunɔla la agblɔ ga home si anyigba la axɔ va se ɖe Aseyetsoƒe si gbɔna la nɛ. Amea axe ga home ma enumake na Yehowa.
then the priest shall reckon to him the worth of your valuation up to the Year of Jubilee; and he shall give your valuation on that day, as a holy thing to the LORD.
24 Ekema le Aseyetsoƒe la me la, anyigba la agazu nutɔ gbãtɔ si si wòƒlee le la tɔ.
In the Year of Jubilee the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land belongs.
25 Ga homeawo katã nanɔ Kɔkɔeƒe la ƒe ga me: ga siwo katã woaxe la nanye esi dzi nunɔlawo ɖo kpee da ɖi.
All your valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs to the shekel.
26 “‘Ame aɖeke matsɔ nyitsu alo agbo si ʋu dɔnu na dadaa la ana Yehowa o, elabena Yehowa tɔe wònye xoxo.
“‘However the firstborn amongst animals, which belongs to the LORD as a firstborn, no man may dedicate, whether an ox or a sheep. It is the LORD’s.
27 Ke ne enye ŋgɔgbevi na lã si ŋu se meɖe mɔ le be woatsɔ asa vɔe na Yehowa o la, ekema amea axe ga home si nunɔla ayɔ nɛ la kple ga home la ƒe mama atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka. Ke ne amea medi be yeagbugbɔe axɔ o la, nunɔla la nadzrae na ame bubu ɖe sia ɖe.
If it is an unclean animal, then he shall buy it back according to your valuation, and shall add to it the fifth part of it; or if it isn’t redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your valuation.
28 Ke nu sia nu si woatsɔ ana Yehowa, eɖanye amegbetɔ o, lã o alo anyigba si ƒe dome ame aɖe menyi o la, womadzra wo o, eye womagbugbɔ wo axɔ hã o, elabena nu kɔkɔewo ƒe nu kɔkɔewo wonye na Yehowa.
“‘Notwithstanding, no devoted thing that a man devotes to the LORD of all that he has, whether of man or animal, or of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed. Everything that is permanently devoted is most holy to the LORD.
29 “‘Ne wodo busu ame aɖe la, womaxɔe kple ga o, ke boŋ woawui.
“‘No one devoted to destruction, who shall be devoted from amongst men, shall be ransomed. He shall surely be put to death.
30 “‘Nu siwo katã anyigba wɔ, agblemenukuwo loo alo kutsetsewo ƒe mama ewolia ƒe ɖeka nye Yehowa tɔ, eye wonye nu kɔkɔe.
“‘All the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the trees, is the LORD’s. It is holy to the LORD.
31 Ne ame aɖe di be yeaxɔ yeƒe kutsetse la alo agblemenuku la aƒle la, ele be wòaxe ga home la kple eƒe mama atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka.
If a man redeems anything of his tithe, he shall add a fifth part to it.
32 Ne lãkplɔla aɖe le eƒe lãwo xlẽm ɖekeɖekae la, lã ewolia ɖe sia ɖe nye Yehowa tɔ, eɖanye nyi, alẽ alo aƒemelã bubu ɖe sia ɖe o.
All the tithe of the herds or the flocks, whatever passes under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to the LORD.
33 Womatia lã ewolia si woatsɔ ana Yehowa la ɖe eƒe nyonyo alo manyomanyo ta o. Womatsɔ ɖeke aɖɔli bubu hã o. Ne woaɖɔli lã aɖe kokoko la, ekema esi woaɖɔli kple esi woatsɔ aɖɔlii la siaa nye Yehowa tɔ, eye womaxe fe ɖe wo ta o!’”
He shall not examine whether it is good or bad, neither shall he exchange it. If he exchanges it at all, then both it and that for which it is exchanged shall be holy. It shall not be redeemed.’”
34 Esiawoe nye se siwo Yehowa de na Mose le Sinai to la dzi na Israelviwo.
These are the commandments which the LORD commanded Moses for the children of Israel on Mount Sinai.
