< Mose 3 9 >

1 Le ŋutikɔkɔ ƒe ŋkeke enyia gbe la, Mose yɔ Aron kple via ŋutsuwo kple Israel ƒe ametsitsiwo,
Then, the eighth day having arrived, Moses called Aaron and his sons, and those greater by birth from Israel, and he said to Aaron:
2 eye wògblɔ na Aron be wòalé nyitsu ɖeka tso nyiha la me hena nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa kple agbo ɖeka hena numevɔsa, eye wòasa vɔ le Yehowa ŋkume.
“Take a calf for sin from the herd, and a ram as a holocaust, both immaculate, and offer them in the sight of the Lord.
3 Mose yi edzi be, “Gblɔ na Israelviwo be woatia gbɔ̃tsu ɖeka hena woƒe nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa kple nyivi ɖeka kple alẽvi ɖeka, lã siwo de blibo hena woƒe numevɔsa.
And to the sons of Israel, you shall say: ‘Take a he-goat for sin, and a calf as well as a lamb, both one-year-old and without blemish, as a holocaust.
4 Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, woatsɔ nyitsu ɖeka kple agbo ɖeka asa akpedavɔ, eye woatsɔ wɔ si woblu kple ami la asa nuɖuvɔ na Yehowa, elabena egbe la, Yehowa aɖe eɖokui afia wo.”
Take also an ox and a ram for peace offerings. And immolate them before the Lord, offering with the sacrifice of each one fine wheat flour sprinkled with oil. For today the Lord will appear to you.’”
5 Ale ameawo tsɔ nu siawo katã va Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu, abe ale si Mose gblɔ na wo la ene, eye ameawo tsi tsitre ɖe afi ma le Yehowa ŋkume.
And so they brought everything that Moses had ordered before the door of the tabernacle, where, when all the multitude stood together,
6 Mose gblɔ na ameawo be, “Ne miewɔ Yehowa ƒe ɖoɖowo dzi la, eƒe ŋutikɔkɔe aɖe eɖokui afia mi.”
Moses said: “This is the word, which the Lord has instructed. Accomplish it, and his glory will appear to you.”
7 Mose gblɔ na Aron be wòate ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu, eye wòasa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa kple numevɔ, alé avu gbã ɖe eɖokui ta, eye emegbe la, ɖe ame bubuawo ta abe ale si Yehowa ɖo ene.
And he said to Aaron: “Approach toward the altar, and immolate on behalf of your sin. Offer the holocaust, and pray for yourself and for the people. And when you have slain the victim for the people, pray for them, just as the Lord has instructed.”
8 Ale Aron te ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu, eye wòtsɔ nyivi la wɔ nu vɔ̃ vɔsae ɖe eya ŋutɔ ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta.
And immediately Aaron, approaching toward the altar, immolated the calf for his sin.
9 Via ŋutsuwo tsɔ ʋu la nɛ. Ede asi eme, sisii ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzowo ŋu, eye wòkɔ mamlɛa ɖe vɔsamlekpui la te.
And his sons brought its blood to him, and dipping his finger in it, he touched the horns of the altar, and he poured out the remainder at its base.
10 Emegbe la, etɔ dzo nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsalã la ƒe ami, ayikuawo kple aklã la le vɔsamlekpui la dzi, abe ale si Yehowa ɖo na Mose ene.
And the fat, and the little kidneys, and the mesh of the liver, which are for sin, he burned upon the altar, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
11 Etɔ dzo lã la kple eƒe agbalẽ le asaɖa la godo.
Yet truly, the flesh and its skins he burned with fire beyond the camp.
12 Nu si kplɔ esia ɖo lae nye Aron wu numevɔsalã la. Via ŋutsuwo tsɔ ʋua nɛ, eye wòhlẽe ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu godoo.
He also immolated the victim of holocaust. And his sons brought its blood to him, which he poured out all around the altar.
13 Wofli lã la tsɔ vɛ nɛ kpe ɖe lã la ƒe ta ŋu. Etɔ dzo wo katã le vɔsamlekpui la dzi.
And when the victim itself was cut into pieces, they brought him the head and each of the limbs, all of which he burned with fire upon the altar,
14 Ekpala dɔmenuawo kple afɔawo, eye wòtɔ dzo wo ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi abe numevɔsa ene.
having first washed the intestines and the feet with water.
15 Emegbe la, etsɔ ameawo ƒe nunanawo sa vɔe. Ewu gbɔ̃tsu la, eye wòtsɔe sa vɔe abe ale si wòsa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa ɖe eɖokui ta ene.
And making an offering for the sin of the people, he slew the he-goat. And expiating the altar,
16 Ale wòsa numevɔ la na Yehowa, le se siwo wòde nɛ la nu.
he accomplished the holocaust,
17 Le esia megbe la, esa nuɖuvɔ la. Eku wɔ la ƒe asiʋlo ɖeka, eye wòtɔ dzoe kpe ɖe gbe sia gbe ƒe ŋdivɔsa ŋu le vɔsamlekpui la dzi.
adding to it the sacrifice of the libations, which are to be offered together, and burning them upon the altar, separately from the ceremonies of the morning holocaust.
18 Azɔ la, ewu nyitsu la kple agbo si ameawo tsɔ vɛ la na akpedavɔsa. Aron viŋutsuwo tsɔ lãawo ƒe ʋu vɛ, eye wòhlẽe ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu godoo.
He also immolated the ox, as well as the ram, as peace offerings for the people. And his sons brought him the blood, which he poured out upon the altar all around.
19 Eɖe nyitsu la kple agbo la ƒe amiwo, ami siwo le ayikuawo ŋu kpe ɖe esiwo le woƒe dɔmenuwo ŋu la ŋuti, eye wògaɖe woƒe ayikuwo kple aklãwo hã.
Then the fat of the ox, and the rump of the ram, and the two little kidneys with their fat, and the mesh of the liver,
20 Aron tsɔ amiawo da ɖe vɔsalãwo ƒe akɔwo dzi, eye wòtɔ dzo amiawo le vɔsamlekpui la dzi.
they placed upon the breasts. And when the fat had been burned upon the altar,
21 Ke Aron nye lãawo ƒe akɔwo kple ɖusitawo le yame le Yehowa ŋkume abe wo tsɔtsɔ na Mawu ƒe dzesi ene, abe ale si Mose ɖo nɛ ene.
Aaron separated their breasts and the right shoulders, lifting them up in the sight of the Lord, as Moses had instructed.
22 Emegbe la, Aron wu eƒe asiwo dzi ɖe dukɔ la dzi, yra wo; eye esi wòsa nu vɔ̃ vɔ, numevɔ, kple akpedavɔ vɔ la, eɖi le vɔsamlekpui la dzi.
And extending his hands to the people, he blessed them. And so, the victims for sin, and the holocausts, and the peace offerings being completed, he descended.
23 Mose kple Aron woyi Agbadɔ la me, eye esi wodo go la, woyra ameawo. Tete Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ɖe eɖokui fia ameha blibo la,
Then Moses and Aaron entered the tabernacle of the testimony, and afterwards came out and blessed the people. And the glory of the Lord appeared to the entire multitude.
24 eye dzo tso Yehowa gbɔ fia numevɔsa la kple amiawo le vɔsamlekpui la dzi. Esi ameawo kpɔe la, wo katã wodo dzidzɔɣli, eye wotsyɔ mo anyi le Yehowa ŋkume.
And, behold, a fire from the Lord devoured the holocaust, and the fat which was on the altar. When the crowd had seen this, they praised the Lord, falling on their faces.
