< Mose 3 4 >

1 Yehowa gade se siawo na Mose:
Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Gblɔ na Israelviwo be, ‘esiawoe nye se siwo ku ɖe ame siwo ada le Yehowa ƒe seawo dzi le ŋuɖeɖi me la ŋu.
“Tell the people of Israel, 'When anyone sins without wanting to sin, doing any of the things that Yahweh has commanded not to be done, and if he does something that is prohibited, the following must be done.
3 “‘Ne nunɔla aɖe wɔ nu vɔ̃ le ŋuɖeɖi me, eye wòto esia me he fɔɖiɖi va ameawo dzi la, ele nɛ be wòatsɔ nyitsuvi fɛ̃ si de blibo la asa nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa na Yehowa.
If it is the high priest who sins so as to bring guilt on the people, then let him offer for his sin which he has committed a young bull without blemish to Yahweh as a sin offering.
4 Ele be wòakplɔ nyitsuvi fɛ̃ la ava Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu, atsɔ eƒe asi ada ɖe nyitsu la ƒe ta dzi, eye wòawui le afi ma le Yehowa ŋkume.
He must bring the bull to the entrance of the tent of meeting before Yahweh, lay his hand on its head, and kill the bull before Yahweh.
5 Ekema nunɔla la atsɔ nyitsu la ƒe ʋu ayi Agbadɔ la me,
The anointed priest will take some of the blood of the bull and take it to the tent of meeting.
6 ade eƒe asibidɛ ʋu la me, eye wòahlẽ ʋu la zi adre le Yehowa ŋkume ɖe xɔmetsovɔ si ma Kɔkɔeƒewo ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la me la ŋkume.
The priest will dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle some of it seven times before Yahweh, before the curtain of the most holy place.
7 Emegbe la, nunɔla la asisi ʋu la ƒe ɖe ɖe dzudzɔdovɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzowo ŋu le Yehowa ŋkume le Agbadɔ la me; atsɔ ʋua mamlɛa akɔ ɖe numevɔsamlekpui la te le Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
Then the priest will put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense before Yahweh, which is in the tent of meeting, and he will pour out all the rest of the blood of the bull at the base of the altar for burnt offerings, which is at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
8 Le esia megbe la, nunɔla la aɖe ami le nyitsua ƒe dɔmenuawo,
He will cut away all the fat of the bull of the sin offering; the fat that covers the inner parts, all the fat that is attached to the inner parts,
9 ayiku eveawo kple aklã la ŋu,
the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the lobe of the liver, with the kidneys—he will cut away all this.
10 eye wòatɔ dzo wo ɖe numevɔsamlekpui la dzi abe ale si wotsɔa nyitsu alo nyinɔ sãa akpedavɔ ene tututu.
He will cut it all away, just as he cuts it off from the bull of the sacrifice of peace offerings. Then the priest will burn these parts on the altar for burnt offerings.
11 Ke atsɔ nyitsu la ƒe ayi kple eƒe lã katã, kpe ɖe eƒe ta kple afɔwo ŋu,
The skin of the bull and any remaining meat, with its head and with its legs and its inner parts and its dung,
12 kple nyitsu la ƒe lã mamlɛa katã ayi asaɖa la godo, teƒe si ŋuti kɔ kple afi si wotsɔa afi ƒua gbe ɖo la, eye wòatɔ dzoe le nakedzo dzi le afi si woli kɔe la dzi.
all the rest of the parts of the bull—he will carry all these parts outside the camp to a place that they have cleansed for me, where they pour out the ashes; they will burn those parts there on wood. They must burn those parts where they pour out the ashes.
13 “‘Ne Israel dukɔ blibo la wɔ nu vɔ̃ le ŋuɖeɖi me, eye wòwɔ nu si Yehowa de se na wo be womawɔ o la, ameawo katã ɖi fɔ.
If the whole assembly of Israel sins without wanting to sin, and the assembly is unaware that they have sinned and done any of the things which Yahweh has commanded not to be done, and if they are guilty,
14 Ne wova dze si woƒe nu vɔ̃ la, woana nyitsu fɛ̃ aɖe hena nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa. Woatsɔ nyitsu la ava Agbadɔ la ŋgɔ.
then, when the sin they have committed becomes known, then the assembly must offer a young bull for a sin offering and bring it before the tent of meeting.
15 Dukɔ la ƒe ametsitsiwo ada asi ɖe nyitsu la ƒe ta dzi, eye woawui le Yehowa ŋkume.
The elders of the assembly will lay their hands on the head of the bull before Yahweh, and the bull will be killed before Yahweh.
16 Nunɔla la atsɔ nyitsu la ƒe ʋu ayi Agbadɔ la me,
The anointed priest will bring some of the blood of the bull to the tent of meeting,
17 ade eƒe asibidɛ ʋu la me, eye wòahlẽe zi adre ɖe xɔmetsovɔ la ŋgɔ le Yehowa ŋkume.
and the priest will dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle it seven times before Yahweh, before the curtain.
18 Emegbe la, asisi ʋu la ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzowo ŋu le Agbadɔ la me le Yehowa ŋkume, eye wòakɔ ʋua mamlɛa katã ɖe vɔsamlekpui la te le Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
He will put some of the blood on the horns of the altar that is before Yahweh, which is in the tent of meeting, and he will pour out all the blood at the base of the altar for burnt offerings, which is at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
19 Woaɖe eƒe ami ɖe sia ɖe, eye woatɔ dzoe le vɔsamlekpui la dzi.
He will cut off all the fat from it and burn it on the altar.
20 Woawɔ nu siwo katã wowɔna le nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsasa me. Ale nunɔla la alé avu ɖe dukɔ la nu, eye Mawu atsɔ nu vɔ̃ la ake ame sia ame.
That is what he must do with the bull. Just as he did with the bull of the sin offering, so will he also do with this bull, and the priest will make atonement for the people, and they will be forgiven.
21 Azɔ la, nunɔla la atsɔ nyitsu la ayi asaɖa la godo, eye wòatɔ dzoe le afi ma abe ame ɖeka ƒe nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa wònye ene, evɔ la, nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa wònye ɖe dukɔ blibo la ta.
He will carry the bull outside the camp and burn it as he burned the first bull. This is the sin offering for the assembly.
22 “‘Ne dumegã aɖe wɔ nu vɔ̃, gake menya gbã be yewɔ nu vɔ̃, da le Yehowa, eƒe Mawu, ƒe seawo dometɔ ɖeka dzi o,
When a ruler sins without intending to sin, doing any one of all the things that Yahweh his God has commanded not to be done, and he is guilty,
23 ne wova na wònya emegbe ko la, ele be wòatsɔ gbɔ̃tsu si de blibo la vɛ abe eƒe vɔsa ene.
then his sin which he has committed is made known to him, he must bring for his sacrifice a goat, a male without blemish.
24 Ada eƒe asi ɖe gbɔ̃ la ƒe ta dzi, awui le afi si wowua numevɔsalãwo le, eye wòatsɔe na Yehowa. Esiae nye eƒe nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa.
He will lay his hand on the head of the goat and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt offering before Yahweh. This is a sin offering.
25 Ekema nunɔla la atsɔ nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsalã sia ƒe ʋu ƒe ɖe, atsɔ eƒe asibidɛ asisi ʋu la ɖe numevɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzowo ŋu, eye wòakɔ ʋu la ƒe mamlɛa ɖe vɔsamlekpui la te.
The priest will take the blood of the sin offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar for burnt offerings, and he will pour out its blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering.
26 Woatɔ dzo lã la ƒe ami katã ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi abe akpedavɔsalã ƒe amie wònye ene. Ale nunɔla la alé avu ɖe dumegã si wɔ nu vɔ̃ la nu, eye Mawu atsɔ eƒe nu vɔ̃ akee.
He will burn all the fat on the altar, just like the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings. The priest will make atonement for the ruler concerning his sin, and the ruler will be forgiven.
27 “‘Ne dukɔmevi aɖe da le Yehowa ƒe sewo dzi, gake menya be yewɔ nu vɔ̃ o la, eɖi fɔ.
If anyone of the common people sins without intending to sin, doing any of the things which Yahweh has commanded him not to be done, and when he realizes his guilt,
28 Ke ne eva nya teti ko la, ele nɛ be wòatsɔ gbɔ̃nɔ si de blibo la vɛ be yeatsɔe alé avui ɖe yeƒe nu vɔ̃ ta.
then his sin which he has committed is made known to him, then he will bring a goat for his sacrifice, a female without blemish, for the sin that he has committed.
29 Atsɔe va afi si wowua numevɔsalãwo le, ada asi ɖe lã la ƒe ta dzi, eye wòawui.
He will lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and kill the sin offering at the place of burnt offering.
30 Ekema nunɔla la ade asibidɛ ʋu la me asisi ɖe numevɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzowo ŋu, eye wòakɔ ʋua mamlɛa ɖe vɔsamlekpui la te.
The priest will take some of the blood with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar for burnt offerings. He will pour out all the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
31 Woaɖe ami siwo katã le dɔ me na lã la, abe ale si wowɔna le akpedavɔsa me ene, eye nunɔla la atɔ dzoe le vɔsamlekpui la dzi. Nu sia adze Yehowa ŋu. Ale nunɔla la alé avu ɖe amea nu, eye Mawu atsɔ eƒe nu vɔ̃ akee.
He will cut away all the fat, just as the fat is cut away from off the sacrifice of peace offerings. The priest will burn it on the altar to produce a sweet aroma for Yahweh. The priest will make atonement for the man, and he will be forgiven.
32 “‘Ke ne edi be yeasa vɔ la kple alẽ la, ekema ele be wòanye alẽnɔ si de blibo.
If the man brings a lamb as his sacrifice for a sin offering, he will bring a female without blemish.
33 Akplɔe va afi si wowua numevɔsalãwo le, ada asi ɖe lã la ƒe ta dzi, eye wòawui abe nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsalã ene.
He will lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and kill it for a sin offering at the place where they kill the burnt offering.
34 Nunɔla la ade asibidɛ vɔsaʋu la me asisi ɖe numevɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzowo ŋuti, eye woakɔ ʋua ƒe mamlɛa katã ɖe vɔsamlekpui la te.
The priest will take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar for burnt offerings, and he will pour out all its blood at the base of the altar.
35 Woawɔ lã la ƒe ami ŋu dɔ abe ale si wowɔa eŋu dɔ le akpedavɔsa me ene. Nunɔla la atɔ dzo lã la ƒe ami ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi abe ale si wowɔna kple vɔsanu bubu ɖe sia ɖe si wotɔa dzoe na Yehowa la ene. Ekema nunɔla la alé avu ɖe amea nu, eye Mawu atsɔ eƒe nu vɔ̃ akee.
He will cut away all the fat, just as the fat of the lamb is cut away from the sacrifice of peace offerings, and the priest will burn it on the altar on top of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. The priest will make atonement for him for the sin he has committed, and the man will be forgiven.
