Mose 4 15

1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,

Then Yahweh spoke to Moses. He said,

2 “Ƒo nu na Israelviwo, eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Ne miege ɖe anyigba si mele mia nam abe mia de ene dzi,

“Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, 'When you go into the land where you will live, which Yahweh will give to you,

3 eye miesa dzovɔ na Yehowa tso miaƒe lãhawo me, abe ʋeʋẽ lĩlĩlĩ si dzea Yehowa ŋu la ene, nenye numevɔsa alo vɔsa siwo ku ɖe adzɔgbeɖeɖe tɔxɛwo ŋu, lɔlɔ̃nununana alo Ŋkekenyuiwo ƒe vɔsawo ŋu la,

you are to prepare an offering by fire to Yahweh, either a burnt offering or a sacrifice to fulfill a vow or a freewill offering, or an offering at your feasts, to produce a pleasing aroma for Yahweh from the herd or the flock.

4 ekema ame si le vɔ la sam la atsɔ nuɖuvɔsa si nye wɔ memee kilogram ɖeka, si wobaka kple ami lita ɖeka na Yehowa,

You must offer to Yahweh a burnt offering as well as a grain offering of a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-fourth of a hin of oil.

5 eye nunovɔsa si nye wain lita ɖeka la akpe ɖe eŋu. Wain hin ɖeka ƒe akpa enelia akpe ɖe alẽvi ɖeka ŋu.

You must also offer with the burnt offering, or for the sacrifice, one-fourth of a hin of wine for the drink offering for each lamb.

6 “‘Nenye agboe wotsɔ le vɔ la sam la, woatsɔ wɔ memee kilogram eve si woblu kple ami lita ɖeka kple afã

If you are offering a ram, you must prepare as a grain offering two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with a third of a hin of oil.

7 kple wain lita ɖeka kple afã la akpe ɖe eŋu abe nunovɔsa ene. Esia anye vɔsa si ʋẽna lĩlĩlĩ, eye wòdzea Yehowa ŋu.

For the drink offering, you must offer a third of a hin of wine. It will produce a sweet aroma for Yahweh.

8 “‘Ne ètsɔ nyitsuvi aɖe be yeasa numevɔ, adzɔgbeɖevɔ alo akpedavɔe na Yehowa la,

When you prepare a bull as a burnt offering or as a sacrifice to fulfill a vow, or as a fellowship offering to Yahweh,

9 ekema nàtsɔ nuɖuvɔsa, wɔ memee lita ade kple afã kple ami lita eve akpe ɖe nyitsuvi la ŋu.

then you must offer with the bull a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with half a hin of oil.

10 Nunovɔsa si akpe ɖe eŋu la anye wain lita eve. Woatsɔ dzo asa vɔ sia, eye wòadze Yehowa ŋu.

You must offer as the drink offering half a hin of wine, as an offering made by fire, to produce a sweet aroma for Yahweh.

11 Woawɔ nyitsu alo agbo, alẽvi alo gbɔ̃ ɖe sia ɖe ŋu dɔ nenema.

It must be done this way for each bull, for each ram, and for each of the male lambs or young goats.

12 Wɔ nu sia na wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe, ɖe woƒe agbɔsɔsɔ nu.

Every sacrifice that you prepare and offer must be done as described here.

13 “‘Dzɔleaƒea ɖe sia ɖe awɔ nu siawo ale, ne etsɔ numevɔsanu aɖe vɛ be wòanye ʋeʋẽ lĩlĩlĩ si adze Yehowa ŋu.

All who are native-born Israelites must do these things in this way, when anyone brings an offering made by fire, to produce an aroma that is pleasing to Yahweh.

14 Hena dzidzime siwo gbɔna la, ɣe sia ɣi si amedzro aɖe alo ame bubu aɖe, si le mia dome ana dzovɔsanu aɖe be wòanye ʋeʋẽ lĩlĩlĩ na Yehowa la, ele be wòawɔe tututu abe ale si miewɔnɛ ene.

If a foreigner is staying with you, or whoever may live among you throughout your people's generations, he must make an offering made by fire, to produce a sweet aroma for Yahweh. He must act as you act.

15 Se ɖeka mawo ke nanɔ ameha la si na mi kple amedzro siwo le mia dome la siaa elabena miesɔ le Yehowa ƒe ŋkume. Esia nye ɖoɖo mavɔ na dzidzime siwo gbɔna.

There must be the same law for the community and for the foreigner who stays with you, a permanent law throughout your people's generations. As you are, so also must be the traveler staying with you. He must act as you act before Yahweh.

16 Se kple ɖoɖo mawo ke nakplɔ mi kple amedzro siwo le mia dome.’”

The same law and decree must apply to you and to the foreigner who is staying with you.'”

17 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,

Again Yahweh spoke to Moses. He said,

18 “Ƒo nu na Israelviwo, eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Ne miege ɖe anyigba si dzi mele mia kplɔm yi dzi,

“Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, 'When you come into the land where I will take you,

19 eye mieɖu anyigba ma dzi nuɖuɖu la, mitsɔ eƒe ɖe sa vɔe na Yehowa.

when you eat the food produced in the land, you must offer an offering and present it to me.

20 Mitsɔ miaƒe wɔ gbãtɔwo tɔ tatalĩ, wòanye vɔsa tso miaƒe lu gbãtɔ si tso lugbɔƒe.

From the first of your dough you must offer a loaf to raise it up as a raised offering from the threshing floor. You must raise it up in this way.

21 To dzidzime siwo ava me la, ele be miasa vɔ sia na Yehowa tso miaƒe luwɔ gbãtɔwo me.’”

You must give to me a raised offering throughout your people's generations from the first of your dough.

22 “‘Ne miawo alo miaƒe dzidzimeviwo da vo, eye womewɔ se siwo katã Yehowa de na mi le ƒeawo me to Mose dzi la dzi o la,

You will sometimes sin without intending to do so, when you do not obey all these commands that I have spoken to Moses—

23 Yehowa ƒe se siwo wode na mi to edzi tso gbe si gbe Yehowa de wo, woayi edzi to dzidzime siwo gbɔna me,

everything that I have commanded you through Moses from the day that I began to give you commands and onward throughout your people's generations.

24 eye menye nu si woɖo wɔ, eye ameha la menya nu tso eŋu o la, ameha blibo la ana nyitsu fɛ̃ aɖe hena numevɔsa hena ʋeʋẽ lĩlĩlĩ si adze Yehowa ŋu hekpe ɖe eƒe nuɖuvɔsa kple nunovɔsa si woɖo da ɖi kple gbɔ̃tsu ɖeka na nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa ŋu.

In the case of unintentional sin without the community's knowledge, then all the community must offer one young bull as a burnt offering to produce a sweet aroma for Yahweh. Along with this must be made a grain offering and drink offering, as commanded by the decree, and one male goat as a sin offering.

25 Nunɔla alé avu ɖe Israelviwo katã nu, eye woatsɔ woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ake wo, elabena vodadae, eye woɖɔ vodada sia ɖo to dzovɔsa kple nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa me le Yehowa ŋkume.

The priest must make atonement for all the community of the people of Israel. They will be forgiven because the sin was an error. They have brought their sacrifice, an offering made by fire to me. They have brought their sin offering before me for their error.

26 Woatsɔ nu vɔ̃ ake ame sia ame; woatsɔe ake amedzro siwo le Israelviwo dome hã, elabena ameha blibo lae da vo, eya ta ameha blibo la akpɔ gome le tsɔtsɔke la me.

Then all the community of the people of Israel will be forgiven, and also the foreigners who are staying with them, because all the people committed the sin unintentionally.

27 “‘Nenye ame ɖekae da vo la, ekema amea ana gbɔ̃nɔe si xɔ ƒe ɖeka la na nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa.

If a person sins unintentionally, then he must offer a female goat a year old as a sin offering.

28 Nunɔla la alé avu ɖe enu le Yehowa ŋkume, eye wòatsɔ eƒe nu vɔ̃ akee.

The priest must make atonement before Yahweh for the person who sins unintentionally. That person will be forgiven when atonement has been made.

29 Se sia bla mi ame Israelvi dzɔleaƒeawo kple amedzro siwo le mia dome hã.

You must have the same law for the one who does anything unintentionally, the same law for the one who is native born among the people of Israel and for the foreigners who are staying among them.

30 “‘Ke ne ame aɖe nya nyuie hafi da vo aɖe la, nenye Israelvi alo amedzro hã la, ekema edo vlo Yehowa, eya ta ele be woaɖee ɖa le eƒe amewo dome.

But the person who does anything in defiance, whether he is native born or a foreigner, blasphemes me. That person must be cut off from among his people.

31 Esi wòdo vlo Yehowa ƒe sewo abe nu ɖowɔ ene, eye wònya nyuie hafi da le eƒe se dzi la, ele be woawui, eye eƒe nu vɔ̃ anɔ eya ŋutɔ dzi.’”

Because he has despised my word and has broken my commandment, that person must be cut off completely. His sin will be on him.'”

32 Gbe ɖeka esime Israelviwo nɔ gbedzi la, wolé Israelvi aɖe wònɔ nake fɔm le Dzudzɔgbe la dzi.

While the people of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering wood on the Sabbath day.

33 Wokplɔe yi Mose kple Aron kple ameha la ŋkume.

Those who found him brought him to Moses, Aaron, and all the community.

34 Wodee mɔ va se ɖe esime woanya nu si Yehowa adi be woawɔ.

They kept him in custody because it had not been declared what should be done with him.

35 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Ele be ŋutsu la naku. Ele be ameawo katã naƒu kpee le asaɖa la godo wòaku.”

Then Yahweh said to Moses, “The man must surely be put to death. All the community must stone him with stones outside the camp.”

36 Ale wohee yi asaɖa la godo, eye wowui abe ale si Yehowa ɖo na wo ene.

So all the community brought him outside the camp and stoned him to death as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

37 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,

Again Yahweh spoke to Moses. He said,

38 “Ƒo nu na Israelviwo, eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Mia kple miaƒe dzidzimeviwo miade gbo miaƒe avɔwo ƒe dzogoewo to, eye ka blɔtɔ nanɔ gbo ɖe sia ɖe ŋu.

“Speak to the descendants of Israel and command them to make for themselves tassels to hang from the borders of their garments, to hang them from each border by a blue cord. They must do this throughout their people's generations.

39 Ne miekpɔ gbo siawo la, ekema miaɖo ŋku se siwo katã Yehowa de na mi la dzi be miawɔ wo dzi, eye miagatsɔ mia ɖokuiwo adzra na ŋutilãmenuwo, miaƒe dzi ƒe nudzodzrowo kple nu siwo miaƒe ŋku kpɔna la o.

It will be a special reminder to you, when you may look at it, of all my commandments, to carry them out so that you do not look to your own heart and your own eyes and prostitute yourselves to them.

40 Ekema miaɖo ŋku edzi, awɔ nye sewo katã dzi, eye miakɔ mia ɖokuiwo ŋuti na miaƒe Mawu la.

Do this so that you may call to mind and obey all my commandments, and so that you may be holy, reserved for me, your God.

41 Nyee nye Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu, ame si kplɔ mi do goe tso Egipte be manye miaƒe Mawu. Nyee nye Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu.’”

I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to become your God. I am Yahweh your God.”
