Mose 3 6
1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
The Lord told Moses,
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
“If you sin against the Lord, breaking your commitment to him, then this is what must happen. You may have lied to your neighbor about something you were looking after for them, about some deposit paid, about something was stolen, or maybe you were trying to cheat them.
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,
You may have found property someone lost, and you lied and made false statements about it, or you have sinned in others ways that people do in such situations.
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
If you have sinned and become guilty you must return what you have stolen or cheated from your victims, the deposit you took, the lost property you found,
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.
or anything else that must be given back that you lied about. You must pay full compensation plus a fifth of the value, and give it to the owner as soon as you accept that you are guilty of sin.
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 you must take to the priest your guilt offering for the Lord: a ram without defects of the appropriate value from the flock.
7 ame si alé avu ɖe enu le Yehowa ŋkume, eye Mawu atsɔ eƒe nu vɔ̃ akee.”
This is how the priest will make you right before the Lord, and you will be forgiven whatever sins you may have done that you are guilty of.”
8 Yehowa gagblɔ na Mose be,
The Lord told Moses,
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.
“Give Aaron and his sons these instructions regarding the burnt offering: The burnt offering is to be left on the fireplace of the altar throughout night until morning, and the fire must be kept burning on the 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 put on his linen clothes and underwear, and he shall take from the altar the greasy ashes of the burnt offering that the fire has burned up and set them down beside the altar.
11 Emegbe la, aɖɔli eƒe awuwo, atsɔ dzowɔ la ayi teƒe si ŋuti kɔ le asaɖa la godo.
Then he has to change his clothes, and take the ashes outside the camp to a place that's ceremonially clean.
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.
The fire on the altar must be kept burning—don't let it go out. Each morning the priest is to add wood to the fire, carefully place the burnt offering on it, and burn the fat parts of the peace offerings on it.
13 Ele be dzo nanɔ bibim le vɔsamlekpui la dzi madzudzɔmadzudzɔe. Mele be wòatsi gbeɖe o.’”
The fire must always be kept burning on the altar continually—don't let it go out.
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.
These are the regulations for the grain offering: Aaron's sons are to present it before the Lord, in front of 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 remove a handful of the best flour mixed with olive oil, as well as all the frankincense from the grain offering, and burn the ‘reminder part’ on the altar to be to be accepted by 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.
The rest is for Aaron and his sons to eat. It must be eaten without yeast in a holy place—the courtyard of the Tent of Meeting.
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.
It must not be baked with yeast. I have provided it as their share of my food offerings. It is most holy, just like the sin offering and the guilt offering.
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.’”
Any of Aaron's male descendants may eat it. This is a permanent allowance from the food offerings to the Lord for future generations. Whatever touches them shall become holy.”
19 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose bena,
The Lord told Moses,
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 offering that Aaron and his sons are to present to the Lord when they're anointed: a tenth of an ephah of best flour as a usual grain offering, half in the morning and half in the evening.
21 Tsɔ ami tɔe le nutɔgba me wòabi nyuie ekema nàtsɔe vɛ na Yehowa wòanye vɔsa si dzea eŋu.
Cook it with olive oil on a griddle. Bring it well-kneaded and present it as a grain offering broken into pieces, to be accepted by 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.
It is to be cooked by the priest who is one of Aaron's descendants and who is to be anointed to take his place. In this case since it is permanently allocated to the Lord, it must be burned completely.
23 Woatɔ dzo nunɔlawo ƒe nuɖuvɔsa ɖe sia ɖe keŋkeŋ, eye womaɖui o.”
Every grain offering for a priest is to be burned completely. It must not be eaten.”
24 Le esia megbe la, Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
The Lord told Moses,
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.
“Tell Aaron and his sons that these are the regulations for the sin offering. The sin offering is to be killed where the burnt offering is killed before the Lord, and it is most holy.
26 Nunɔla si asa vɔ sia la aɖu vɔsalã la le Agbadɔ la ƒe kpɔ me.
The priest who offers the sin offering is to eat it. It must be eaten without yeast in a holy place—the courtyard of the Tent of Meeting.
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 touches it shall become holy and if any of the blood is splashed on clothing, you must wash it in a holy place.
28 Ekema woagbã ze si me wonya awu la le. Ne enye akɔblizee la, woaklɔe nyuie.
The clay pot used to boil the sin offering must be broken. If it's boiled in a bronze pot, the pot must be thoroughly cleaned and washed out 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.
Any male among the priests may eat it, it is most holy.
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.
But no sin offering may be eaten if its blood has been taken into the Tent of Meeting to as a means to make things right in the Holy Place. In that case it must be burned.”
