1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose kple Aron be,
And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
2 “Mixlẽ Kohat ƒe viwo tso Levi ƒe viwo dome le woƒe towo kple ƒomewo nu.
“Take a census of the sons of Kohath from the midst of the sons of Levi, by their families, by the house of their fathers;
3 Mixlẽ ŋutsu siwo xɔ tso ƒe blaetɔ̃ va se ɖe blaatɔ̃, eye woate ŋu awɔ dɔ le Agbadɔ la me.
from a son of thirty years and upward, even until a son of fifty years, everyone going in to the host, to do work in the Tent of Meeting.
4 “Esiawoe nye Kohat ƒe viwo ƒe dɔ le agbadɔ la me: nu kɔkɔetɔwo dzi kpɔkpɔ.
This [is] the service of the sons of Kohath in the Tent of Meeting [for] the most holy things:
5 Ne asaɖa la le hoho ge la, Aron kple via ŋutsuwo age ɖe Agbadɔ la me gbã. Woaɖe xɔmetsovɔ la, eye woatsɔe atsyɔ nubablaɖaka la dzi.
when Aaron and his sons have come in, in the journeying of the camp, and have taken down the veil of the hanging, and have covered the Ark of the Testimony with it,
6 Emegbe la, woatsɔ tɔmenyigbalẽ atsyɔ xɔmetsovɔ la dzi, atsɔ aɖabɛ blɔtɔ atsyɔ tɔmenyigbalẽ la dzi, eye woatsɔ nubablaɖakakɔkpoawo aƒo ɖe eƒe gagodoeawo me.
then they have put a covering of tachash skin on it, and have spread a garment completely of blue above, and have placed its poles.
7 “Le esia megbe la, woatsɔ aɖabɛ blɔtɔ la akeke ɖe ŋkumeɖobolo la ƒe kplɔ̃ la dzi, eye woatsɔ agbawo, gatsiwo, trewo kple kpluwo kple abolo la ada ɖe avɔ la dzi.
And they spread a garment of blue over the table of the presence, and have put the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and the cups of the drink-offering on it, and the bread of continuity is on it,
8 Woakeke avɔ dzĩtɔ ɖe nu siawo dzi, eye woatsɔ tɔmenyigbalẽ la atsyɔ aɖabɛ dzĩtɔ la dzi azɔ. Emegbe la, woatsɔ kplɔ̃kɔkpoawo ade kplɔ̃ la ƒe gagodoeawo me.
and they have spread a garment of scarlet over them, and have covered it with a covering of tachash skin, and have placed its poles,
9 “Nu si woagawɔ azɔe nye woatsɔ avɔ blɔtɔ atsyɔ akaɖiti la, akaɖigbɛawo, ɖovulãnuwo, nutɔgbawo kple amigoe la dzi.
and have taken a garment of blue, and have covered the lampstand of the lamp, and its lights, and its snuffers, and its snuff-dishes, and all its oil vessels with which they minister to it;
10 Ekema woatsɔ tɔmenyigbalẽ la atsyɔ nuawo katã dzi, eye woatsɔ nubabla blibo la ada ɖe agbati aɖe dzi.
and they have put it and all its vessels into a covering of tachash skin, and have put [it] on the bar.
11 “Azɔ la, woatsɔ avɔ blɔtɔ atsyɔ sikavɔsamlekpui la dzi, atsɔ tɔmenyigbalẽ la atsyɔ eya hã dzi, eye woatsɔ kpoawo aƒo ɖe gagodoeawo me le vɔsamlekpui la ŋu.
And they spread a garment of blue over the golden altar, and have covered it with a covering of tachash skin, and have placed its poles,
12 “Ekema woabla nu bubu siwo katã asusɔ ɖe agbadɔ la me la ɖe avɔ blɔtɔ aɖe me, atsɔ tɔmenyigbalẽ atsyɔ eya hã dzi, eye woada nubabla la ɖe agbati dzi.
and have taken all the vessels of ministry with which they minister in the holy place, and have put [them] into a garment of blue, and have covered them with a covering of tachash skin, and have put [them] on the bar,
13 “Woalɔ dzowɔ le akɔblivɔsamlekpui la dzi, eye woatsɔ aɖabɛ dzĩtɔ atsyɔ na vɔsamlekpui la.
and have removed the ashes of the altar, and have spread a garment of purple over it,
14 Woatsɔ nu siwo katã ŋu dɔ wowɔna le vɔsamlekpui la dzi la ada ɖe avɔ la dzi. Nu siawoe nye afilɔnuwo, gaflowo, sofiwo, zewo kple vɔsamlekpui la dzi nu bubuawo katã, eye woatsɔ tɔmenyigbalẽ atsyɔ wo dzi. Woatsɔ nukɔkpoawo ade woƒe gagodoeawo me.
and have put on it all its vessels with which they minister on it—the censers, the hooks, and the shovels, and the bowls, all the vessels of the altar—and have spread a covering of tachash skin on it, and have placed its poles.
15 “Ne Aron kple via ŋutsuwo wu agbadodo kple nu kɔkɔeawo kple wo ŋunuwo katã nu vɔ, eye ameha la le klalo be yeaho adzo la, Kohat ƒe viwo ava akɔ agbawo. Ke womekpɔ mɔ aka asi nu kɔkɔeawo ŋu o, be womagaku o. Kohat ƒe viwo akɔ nu siwo katã le agbadɔ la me.
And Aaron has finished—his sons also—covering the holy place, and all the vessels of the holy place, in the journeying of the camp, and afterward the sons of Kohath come in to carry [it], and they do not come to the holy thing, lest they have died; these [things are] the burden of the sons of Kohath in the Tent of Meeting.
16 “Nunɔla Aron ƒe viŋutsu, Eleazar, ƒe dɔdeasie nye wòakpɔ akaɖimemiwo, dzudzɔdonu ʋeʋĩwo, gbe sia gbe ƒe nuɖuvɔsa kple ami sisi la dzi. Kpuie ko la, eƒe dɔe nye wòakpɔ Agbadɔ blibo la kple nu siwo katã le eme la dzi.”
And the oversight of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, [is] the oil of the lamp, and the spice-incense, and the present of continuity, and the anointing oil, the oversight of all the Dwelling Place and of all that [is] in it, in the sanctuary and in its vessels.”
17 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose kple Aron be,
And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
18 “Kpɔ egbɔ be womeɖe Kohat ƒomea ɖa le Levi ƒe viwo dome o.
“You do not cut off the tribe of the families of the Kohathite from the midst of the Levites;
19 Be woanɔ agbe, eye womaku o, ne wote ɖe nu kɔkɔewo ŋu la, miwɔ nu siawo na wo: Aron kple via ŋutsuwo ayi ɖe kɔkɔeƒe la, eye wòade dɔ si ame sia ame awɔ kple nu sia nu si wòakɔ la asi nɛ.
but do this for them, and they have lived and do not die in their drawing near [to] the Holy of Holies: Aaron and his sons go in, and have set them, each man to his service, and to his burden,
20 Ne womekplɔ Kohat ƒe viŋutsuwo yi o la, mele be woage ɖe agbadɔ la me o; ne menye nenema o la, woakpɔ nu kɔkɔeawo le afi ma, eye woaku.”
and they do not go in to see when the holy thing is swallowed, lest they have died.”
21 Eye Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
22 “Xlẽ Gerson ƒe viŋutsuwo ɖe Levi ƒe viwo dome,
“Also take a census of the sons of Gershon by the house of their fathers, by their families;
23 ame siwo xɔ tso ƒe blaetɔ̃ va se ɖe ƒe blaatɔ̃, eye wodze na dɔ kɔkɔe la wɔwɔ le agbadɔ la me.
from a son of thirty years and upward, until a son of fifty years, you number them—everyone who is going in to serve the host, to do the service in the Tent of Meeting.
24 “Gerson viwo ƒe dɔdeasie nye be woakɔ:
This [is] the service of the families of the Gershonite, to serve and for burden:
25 Nɔƒe la ƒe xɔmetsovɔ, agbadɔ la ŋutɔ kple kpɔ si ƒo xlãe, gbɔ̃gbalẽ si wotsɔ gbã agbadɔ la kple avɔ si le eƒe mɔnu.
and they have carried the curtains of the Dwelling Place, and the Tent of Meeting, its covering, and the covering of the tachash [skin] which [is] on it above, and the veil at the opening of the Tent of Meeting,
26 Woawoe akɔ kpɔ si ƒo xlã nɔƒe la ŋu vɔwo, agbonuvɔ si le nɔƒe si ƒo xlã vɔsamlekpui la kple agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu ƒe vɔsamlekpui la, kawo kple wo ŋu nu bubuawo katã. Woawo ƒe dɔ wònye be woakɔ nu siawo.
and the hangings of the court, and the veil at the opening of the gate of the court which [is] by the Dwelling Place, and by the altar all around, and their cords, and all the vessels of their service, and all that is made for them—and they have served.
27 Aron alo via ŋutsuwo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe ate ŋu ade dɔ siawo asi na Gerson ƒe viwo,
By the command of Aaron and his sons is all the service of the sons of the Gershonite, in all their burden and in all their service; and you have laid a charge on them concerning the charge of all their burden.
28 ke esiae nye Gerson viwo ƒe ƒome la ƒe dɔwo le agbadɔ la ŋu, eye woanɔ nunɔla Aron ƒe viŋutsu, Itamar ƒe dzikpɔkpɔ te.
This [is] the service of the families of the sons of the Gershonite in the Tent of Meeting; and their charge [is] under the hand of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.
29 “Azɔ la, xlẽ Merari ƒe viŋutsuwo ɖe Levi ƒe viwo dome, ŋutsu siwo katã xɔ ƒe blaetɔ̃ va se ɖe blaatɔ̃, eye wodze na dɔwɔwɔ le Agbadɔ la me.
The sons of Merari, by their families, by the house of their fathers—you number them;

from a son of thirty years and upward even to a son of fifty years, you number them—everyone who is going in to the host, to do the service of the Tent of Meeting.
31 Esiae nye woƒe dɔdeasi si woawɔ le agbadɔ la ŋuti dɔwo wɔwɔ me: woakɔ ʋuƒowo, gamedetiawo, sɔtiawo kple woƒe afɔwo,
And this [is] the charge of their burden, of all their service in the Tent of Meeting: the boards of the Dwelling Place, and its bars, and its pillars, and its sockets,
32 nɔƒe la ƒe kpɔ ƒe sɔtiwo kple zɔwo, tsyotiwo, kawo kple nu sia nu si ku ɖe wo ŋu dɔ wɔwɔ kple wo dzadzraɖo ŋu. De dɔ asi na ame sia ame wotɔxɛtɔxɛe.
and the pillars of the court all around, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords, of all their vessels, and of all their service; and you number the vessels of the charge of their burden by name.

This [is] the service of the families of the sons of Merari, for all their service, in the Tent of Meeting, by the hand of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.”
