Mose 3 5

1 “‘Ne ame aɖe se be woɖe gbeƒã be woava ɖi ɖase le nu vɔ̃ si ame bubu aɖe wɔ la ŋu si wòkpɔ alo nya nu le eŋu, gake meɖi ɖase le eŋuti o la, ekema ewɔ nu vɔ̃.

And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of swearing, and [is] a witness, whether he hath seen or known [of it; ] if he do not utter [it], then he shall bear his iniquity.

2 “‘Alo ne ame aɖe ka asi nu makɔmakɔ aɖe ŋu abe lã maɖumaɖua aɖe ƒe kukua ŋu, alo gbemelã alo aƒemelã alo nutata siwo ŋuti mekɔ o ene ŋu la, ewɔ nu vɔ̃, ne eya ŋutɔ menya be yeka asi nu makɔmakɔ ŋu o hã.

Or if a soul touch any unclean thing, whether [it be] a carcase of an unclean beast, or a carcase of unclean cattle, or the carcase of unclean creeping things, and [if] it be hidden from him; he also shall be unclean, and guilty.

3 Alo ne ede asi ame ƒe nu makɔmakɔ aɖe, nu sia nu si ana wòagblẽ kɔ ɖo la ŋu, togbɔ be menyae hafi o hã la, ne eva nya la, aɖi fɔ.

Or if he touch the uncleanness of man, whatsoever uncleanness [it be] that a man shall be defiled withal, and it be hid from him; when he knoweth [of it], then he shall be guilty.

4 Alo ne ame aɖe ka atam be yeawɔ nane evɔ mebu ta me nyuie hafi kae o, eɖanye nyui alo vɔ̃ la, le nya sia nya si me wòaka atam le tamemabumabutɔe la, togbɔ be menya nu si wɔm wòle o hã la, ne eva nya emegbe la, aɖi fɔ.

Or if a soul swear, pronouncing with [his] lips to do evil, or to do good, whatsoever [it be] that a man shall pronounce with an oath, and it be hid from him; when he knoweth [of it], then he shall be guilty in one of these.

5 Le go siawo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe me la, ele be wòaʋu eƒe nu vɔ̃ me,

And it shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these [things], that he shall confess that he hath sinned in that [thing: ]

6 eye wòatsɔ alẽnɔ alo gbɔ̃nɔ asa nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa na Yehowa. Nunɔla la alé avu ɖe enu, ekema Mawu atsɔ eƒe nu vɔ̃ akee, eye mele be wòagawɔ ɖe atam si wòka la dzi o.

And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD for his sin which he hath sinned, a female from the flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats, for a sin offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his sin.

7 “‘Ne amea da ahe ale gbegbe be mate ŋu akpɔ alẽ alo gbɔ̃ vɛ na Yehowa o la, ekema ana akpakpa eve alo ahɔnɛ fɛ̃ eve abe eƒe nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa ene. Xeviawo dometɔ ɖeka anye eƒe nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa, eye evelia anye eƒe numevɔsa.

And if he be not able to bring a lamb, then he shall bring for his trespass, which he hath committed, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, unto the LORD; one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering.

8 Nunɔla la atsɔ xevi eveawo dometɔ si wotsɔ nɛ gbã la, asa nu vɔ̃ vɔsae. Atro kɔ le xevi la nu, gake mana eƒe kɔ naɖe le enu o.

And he shall bring them unto the priest, who shall offer [that] which [is] for the sin offering first, and wring off his head from his neck, but shall not divide [it] asunder:

9 Nunɔla la ahlẽ ʋua ƒe ɖe ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ƒe axawo dzi, eye wòakɔ ʋua mamlɛa ɖe vɔsamlekpui la te. Esiae nye nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa.

And he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin offering upon the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be wrung out at the bottom of the altar: it [is] a sin offering.

10 Nunɔla la atsɔ xevi evelia awɔ numevɔsae to mɔ siwo woɖo da ɖi la dzi. Ale nunɔla la alé avu ɖe amea nu le eƒe nu vɔ̃ ta, eye Mawu atsɔe akee.

And he shall offer the second [for] a burnt offering, according to the manner: and the priest shall make an atonement for him for his sin which he hath sinned, and it shall be forgiven him.

11 “‘Ne amea da ahe ale gbegbe be mate ŋu atsɔ akpakpawo alo ahɔnɛ fɛ̃wo asa nu vɔ̃ vɔe o la, ekema ana wɔ memee kilogram ɖeka. Mele be woakɔ ami ɖe edzi loo alo atsakae kple dzudzɔdonu o, elabena nu vɔ̃ vɔsae.

But if he be not able to bring two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, then he that sinned shall bring for his offering the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering; he shall put no oil upon it, neither shall he put [any] frankincense thereon: for it [is] a sin offering.

12 Atsɔe vɛ na nunɔla la; nunɔla la aɖe wɔ la ƒe asiʋlo ɖeka ɖe wɔ blibo la teƒe, eye wòatɔ dzoe le vɔsamlekpui la dzi abe dzovɔsa bubu ɖe sia ɖe na Yehowa ene. Esiae anye eƒe nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa.

Then shall he bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it, [even] a memorial thereof, and burn [it] on the altar, according to the offerings made by fire unto the LORD: it [is] a sin offering.

13 Ale nunɔla la alé avu ɖe enu le nu vɔ̃ sia tɔgbi ɖe sia ɖe ta, eye Mawu atsɔe akee. Wɔ la ƒe mamlɛa azu nunɔla la tɔ abe ale si wowɔna le nuɖuvɔsa gome ene.’”

And the priest shall make an atonement for him as touching his sin that he hath sinned in one of these, and it shall be forgiven him: and [the remnant] shall be the priest’s, as a meat offering.

14 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

15 “Ne ame aɖe gblẽ kɔ ɖo, eye wòwɔ nu vɔ̃ le manyamanya me, ku ɖe Yehowa ƒe nu kɔkɔewo dometɔ aɖe ŋu la, abe tohehe ene la, alé agbo ɖeka le lãhawo dome vɛ na Yehowa, esi ŋuti kpɔtsɔtsɔ mele o la, eye eƒe home sɔ kple klosalo si wòle be wòana le Kɔkɔeƒe la ƒe nudanu nu. Enye fɔɖivɔsa na Yehowa.

If a soul commit a trespass, and sin through ignorance, in the holy things of the LORD; then he shall bring for his trespass unto the LORD a ram without blemish out of the flocks, with thy estimation by shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering:

16 Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, ele nɛ be wòaɖo nu si mete ŋu wɔ o la teƒe ku ɖe nu kɔkɔeawo ŋuti, agatsɔ nu si wòle be wòana la ƒe akpa atɔ̃lia akpe ɖe nuawo ŋu, eye wòatsɔ wo katã vɛ na nunɔla la, ame si atsɔ agbo la alé avui abe fɔɖivɔsa ene. Ale woatsɔe akee.

And he shall make amends for the harm that he hath done in the holy thing, and shall add the fifth part thereto, and give it unto the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering, and it shall be forgiven him.

17 “Ne ame aɖe wɔ nu vɔ̃, eye wòwɔ nu si wogbe be womawɔ o le Yehowa ƒe ɖoɖowo dometɔ aɖe me, ne eya ŋutɔ menyae o gɔ̃ hã la, eɖi fɔ eye woabui nu vɔ̃e nɛ.

And if a soul sin, and commit any of these things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the LORD; though he wist [it] not, yet is he guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.

18 Ele be wòatsɔ agbo ɖeka si de blibo, eye asixɔxɔ si dze la le eŋu la tso eƒe alẽwo dome vɛ na nunɔla la abe eƒe fɔɖivɔsa ene. Ale nunɔla la alé avu ɖe enu ɖe nu vɔ̃ si meɖo wɔ o la ta, eye woatsɔe akee.

And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the flock, with thy estimation, for a trespass offering, unto the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his ignorance wherein he erred and wist [it] not, and it shall be forgiven him.

19 Ele be wòatsɔe ana abe fɔɖivɔsa ene, elabena eɖi fɔ le Yehowa ŋkume.”

It [is] a trespass offering: he hath certainly trespassed against the LORD.
