Mose 3 6
1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Nenye be ame aɖe wɔ nu vɔ̃, eye meto nyateƒe na Yehowa o, ne eble ehavi tso nu si woda ɖe egbɔ alo be nedzra ɖo na ye alo wòfi alo wòbae
The soul who will have sinned, and, despising the Lord, will have denied to his neighbor the deposit which he had entrusted to his safekeeping, or who will have extorted anything by force, or who will have made a false accusation,
3 alo ne efɔ nu bubu aɖe, evɔ wòda alakpa le eŋuti alo wòka atam dzodzro alo wòwɔ nu vɔ̃ siawo dometɔ ɖeka si amewo awɔ,
or who will have found a lost thing and then also withheld it by swearing falsely, or who will have done any other of the many things by which men usually sin:
4 eye ne ewɔ nu vɔ̃ siawo eye wòɖi fɔ la, ele nɛ be wòaɖe asi le nu si wòfi la alo xɔ to amebamɔ dzi alo nu si dzi wobe wòakpɔ alo nu si bu wòfɔ
being convicted of the offense, he shall restore
5 alo nu sia nu si ŋu wòka aʋatsotam ɖo la ŋu. Ele be wòaɖo nua teƒe wòade, wòatsɔ nua ƒe home atɔ̃lia ƒe ɖeka akpee, eye wòatsɔ wo katã na nutɔ le ŋkeke si wòtsɔ eƒe fɔɖivɔsa na la dzi.
all that he wanted to obtain by fraud, the whole plus an additional fifth part, to the owner against whom he brought the damage.
6 Eƒe fɔɖivɔsanu anye agbo si de blibo, eye eƒe home nade nu sia nu si nàbia tso esi la nu. Atsɔe vɛ na nunɔla si le Yehowa teƒe,
Then, on behalf of his sin, he shall offer an immaculate ram from the flock, and he shall give it to the priest, according to the estimation and measure of the offense.
7 ame si alé avu ɖe enu le Yehowa ŋkume, eye Mawu atsɔ eƒe nu vɔ̃ akee.”
And he shall pray for him in the sight of the Lord, and he shall be released from any one of those things that he did when he sinned.
8 Yehowa gagblɔ na Mose be,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
9 “De se siawo na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo tso numevɔsa ŋuti, ‘Woagblẽ numevɔsa la ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzodoƒe, eye dzo nanɔ bibim le ete zã blibo la.
Instruct Aaron and his sons: This is the law of a holocaust. It shall be burned upon the altar, all night until morning. The fire shall be from the same altar.
10 Ne ŋu ke la, nunɔla la ado eƒe awutewui kple eƒe dziwui, akplɔ numevɔsa la ƒe dzowɔ akɔ ɖe vɔsamlekpui la xa.
The priest shall be vested with the tunic and the linen undergarments. And he shall take up the ashes of that which the devouring fire has consumed, and, placing them next to the altar,
11 Emegbe la, aɖɔli eƒe awuwo, atsɔ dzowɔ la ayi teƒe si ŋuti kɔ le asaɖa la godo.
he shall strip off his former vestments, and being clothed with others, he shall carry them beyond the camp, and he shall cause them to be consumed, even to glowing embers, in a very clean place.
12 Vɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzo aganɔ bibim kokoko; mele be wòatsi o. Nunɔla la agade nake yeyewo dzo la me ŋdi sia ŋdi, eye wòatsɔ gbe sia gbe ƒe numevɔsa ada ɖe edzi, atɔ dzo gbe sia gbe ƒe ŋutifafavɔsa ƒe ami.
But the fire on the altar shall burn always, for the priest shall nourish it by placing wood under it each day in the morning. And, laying down the holocaust, he shall burn the fat of the peace offerings upon it.
13 Ele be dzo nanɔ bibim le vɔsamlekpui la dzi madzudzɔmadzudzɔe. Mele be wòatsi gbeɖe o.’”
This is the perpetual fire which shall never fail upon the altar.
14 “Se siwo le nuɖuvɔsa ŋu la woe nye: ‘Aron ƒe viŋutsuwo atsi tsitre ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋgɔ, eye woasa vɔ la le Yehowa ŋkume.
This is the law of the sacrifice and the libations, which the sons of Aaron shall offer in the sight of the Lord, and before the altar.
15 Nunɔla la aɖe wɔ memee la ƒe asiʋlo ɖeka, akɔ ami kple dzudzɔdonu ɖe edzi, eye wòatɔ dzoe le vɔsamlekpui la dzi abe Yehowa tɔ ene tso nu si wotsɔ vɛ la me. Yehowa axɔe kple dzidzɔ gã.
The priest shall take a handful of fine wheat flour, which has been sprinkled with oil, and all the frankincense, which has been placed upon the flour, and he shall burn it upon the altar as a memorial of most sweet odor to the Lord.
16 Wɔ si asusɔ le asiʋlo ɖeka ɖeɖe vɔ megbe la azu nuɖuɖu na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo. Womade amɔʋãtike eme o. Woaɖui le Agbadɔ la ƒe xɔxɔnu.
And the remaining portion of the flour, Aaron shall eat with his sons, without leaven. And he shall eat it in the holy place, in the atrium of the tabernacle.
17 Te gbe ɖe edzi na wo be, ne womee le abolokpo me la, amɔʋãtike manɔ eme o. Metsɔ numevɔ si wosa nam la ƒe akpa sia na nunɔlawo. Ke numevɔsa blibo la le kɔkɔe abe ale si nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa kple fɔɖivɔsa blibo la le ene.
Yet for this reason, it shall not be leavened, because part of it is offered as an incense of the Lord. The Holy of holies shall it be, just as what is offered on behalf of sin and of transgression.
18 Ŋutsu ɖe sia ɖe si dzɔ tso Aron me, nunɔla ɖe sia ɖe, ate ŋu aɖui tso dzidzime yi dzidzime. Ke nunɔla siwo ŋuti kɔ koe kpɔ mɔ aɖu vɔsanu siwo wome na Yehowa.’”
Only the males of the stock of Aaron shall eat it. This shall be an everlasting ordinance in your generations concerning the sacrifices of the Lord. All who will touch these shall be sanctified.
19 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose bena,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
20 “Nu siae nye nu si Aron kple via ŋutsuwo ana Yehowa le gbe si gbe woasi ami nɛ: wɔ memee kilogram ɖeka abe gbe sia gbe ƒe nuɖuvɔsa ene. Woatsɔ afã vɛ ŋdi, eye afã evelia le fiẽ.
This is the oblation of Aaron and of his sons, which they must offer to the Lord in the day of their anointing. They shall offer a tenth part of an ephah of fine wheat flour as a perpetual sacrifice, half of it in the morning, and half of it in the evening.
21 Tsɔ ami tɔe le nutɔgba me wòabi nyuie ekema nàtsɔe vɛ na Yehowa wòanye vɔsa si dzea eŋu.
It shall be sprinkled with oil and fried in a frying pan. Then it shall be offered hot, as a most sweet odor to the Lord,
22 Via ŋutsu si axɔ ɖe eteƒe abe nunɔla si wosi ami na ene la atrɔ asi le eŋu. Enye Yehowa tɔ ɣe sia ɣi, eye woatɔ dzoe wòafia keŋkeŋ.
by the priest who by law succeeds his father. And it shall be entirely burned on the altar.
23 Woatɔ dzo nunɔlawo ƒe nuɖuvɔsa ɖe sia ɖe keŋkeŋ, eye womaɖui o.”
For every sacrifice of the priest shall be consumed by fire; neither shall anyone eat from it.
24 Le esia megbe la, Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
25 “Gblɔ na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo be se siwo le nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa ŋu la woe nye esiawo. “Vɔsa sia nye nu kɔkɔe. Woawu vɔsalã la le Yehowa ŋkume, afi si wowua numevɔsalãwo le.
Say to Aaron and his sons: This is the law of the victim for sin. In the place where the holocaust is offered, it shall be immolated in the sight of the Lord. It is the Holy of holies.
26 Nunɔla si asa vɔ sia la aɖu vɔsalã la le Agbadɔ la ƒe kpɔ me.
The priest who offers it shall eat it in the holy place, in the atrium of the tabernacle.
27 Ame siwo ŋuti wokɔ, eye wozu nunɔlawo la koe kpɔ mɔ aka asi lã la ŋu. Ne ʋu hlẽ ɖe ame aɖe ƒe awu ŋu la, woanyae le teƒe kɔkɔe aɖe.
Whatever will touch its flesh shall be sanctified. If a garment will be sprinkled with its blood, it shall be washed in a holy place.
28 Ekema woagbã ze si me wonya awu la le. Ne enye akɔblizee la, woaklɔe nyuie.
Then the earthen vessel, in which it was soaked, shall be broken. But if the vessel will be of brass, it shall be scoured and washed with water.
29 Ŋutsu ɖe sia ɖe le nunɔlawo dome kpɔ mɔ aɖu vɔsalã sia. Ke woawo koe kpɔ mɔ aɖui, elabena nu kɔkɔe wònye.
Every male of priestly descent shall feed on its flesh, because it is the Holy of holies.
30 Ne wotsɔ vɔsalã la ƒe ʋu aɖe yi Agbadɔ la me, be woalé avu le Kɔkɔeƒe la la, ekema nunɔlawo mekpɔ mɔ aɖu vɔsalã la o. Woatɔ dzo lã blibo la le Yehowa ŋkume.
For the victim that is slain for sin, whose blood is carried into the tabernacle of the testimony, for expiation in the Sanctuary, shall not be eaten, but it shall be consumed by fire.
