< Mose 4 6 >

1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
2 “Ƒo nu na Israelviwo, eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Ne ŋutsu aɖe alo nyɔnu aɖe di be yeaɖe adzɔgbe tɔxɛ aɖe hekɔ eɖokui ŋu na Yehowa abe Nazaritɔ ene la,
“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When a man or woman does extraordinarily by vowing a vow of a Nazarite, to be separate to YHWH,
3 mele nɛ be wòano wain alo nu muame aɖeke alo aha sesẽ si wowɔ tso wain me alo aha si wotsɔ ɖo ƒãe o. Mano waintsetse me tsi alo aɖu waintsetse o.
he keeps separate from wine and strong drink; he does not drink vinegar of wine and vinegar of strong drink, and he does not drink any juice of grapes, and he does not eat moist or dry grapes;
4 Ŋkeke ale si wònye Nazaritɔ ko la, maɖu naneke si do tso waintsetse me o; maɖu kuawo alo tsroa gɔ̃ hã o.
all [the] days of his separation he does not eat of anything which is made of the wine-vine, from kernels even to husk.
5 “‘Le ɣeyiɣi mawo katã me la, mele be wòako ta alo alũ ge gɔ̃ hã o, elabena enye ame kɔkɔe, eye wokɔ eŋuti na Yehowa. Eya ta ele nɛ be wòagblẽ eƒe ɖa ɖi wòato ʋluyaa.
All [the] days of the vow of his separation a razor does not pass over his head; he is holy until the fullness of the days [in] which he separates himself to YHWH; the upper part of the hair of his head has grown up.
6 “‘Le ɣeyiɣi si me wòɖe eɖokui ɖe aga na Yehowa la, mate ɖe ame kuku ŋu o.
All [the] days of his keeping separate to YHWH, he does not go near a dead person;
7 Ne eya ŋutɔ fofoa alo dadaa alo nɔvia ŋutsu alo nɔvia nyɔnu gɔ̃ hã ku la, magblẽ kɔ ɖo na eɖokui le wo ta o, elabena eƒe ɖokuitsɔtsɔ na Mawu ƒe dzesi le ta dzi nɛ,
for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister—he does not become unclean for them at their death, for the separation of his God [is] on his head;
8 eye wokɔ eŋuti na Yehowa to ɣeyiɣi la katã me.
all [the] days of his separation he [is] holy to YHWH.
9 “‘Ne ame aɖe ku le exa la, ame kuku la gblẽ kɔ ɖo nɛ, ekema ako ta le ŋkeke adre megbe. Ekema eŋuti akɔ tso ale si amea nɔ egbɔ hafi ku la ta.
And when the dead dies beside him in an instant, suddenly, and he has defiled the head of his separation, then he has shaved his head in the day of his cleansing; on the seventh day he shaves it,
10 Le ŋkeke enyilia gbe la, ele be wòatsɔ akpakpa eve alo ahɔnɛvi eve ayi na nunɔla le agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
and on the eighth day he brings in two turtle-doves or two young pigeons to the priest, to the opening of the Tent of Meeting,
11 Nunɔla la atsɔ xeviawo dometɔ ɖeka asa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa, eye wòatsɔ evelia asa numevɔe. Ale wòalé avu le ale si wògblẽ kɔ ɖoe la ta. Agbugbɔ eƒe adzɔgbe la aɖe gbe ma gbe, eye wòana eƒe ɖa nagade asi toto me.
and the priest has prepared one for a sin-offering and one for a burnt-offering, and has made atonement for him because of that which he has sinned by the body, and he has hallowed his head on that day;
12 Ŋkeke siwo wòwɔ eƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe dzi hafi gblẽ kɔ ɖo la, megale eme o. Ele nɛ be wòagadze eƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi wɔwɔ gɔme kple eƒe adzɔgbe yeye la, eye wòana alẽ si xɔ ƒe ɖeka hena eƒe nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa.
and he has separated to YHWH the days of his separation, and he has brought in a lamb, a son of a year, for a guilt-offering, and the former days are fallen, for his separation has been defiled.
13 “‘Ne adzɔgbe si wòɖe be yeaɖe ye ɖokui ɖe aga na Yehowa ƒe ɣeyiɣi wu enu la, ele be wòayi agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu,
And this [is] the law of the Nazarite: in the day of the fullness of the days of his separation, he is brought to the opening of the Tent of Meeting,
14 eye wòasa numevɔ na Yehowa kple alẽ si xɔ ƒe ɖeka, eye wòde blibo. Ele be wòagana alẽnɔ si xɔ ƒe ɖeka, eye wòde blibo hena nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa kple agbo ɖeka si de blibo la na ŋutifafavɔsa.
and he has brought his offering near to YHWH—one male lamb, a son of a year, a perfect one, for a burnt-offering, and one female lamb, a daughter of a year, a perfect one, for a sin-offering, and one ram, a perfect one, for peace-offerings,
15 Kpe ɖe esiawo ŋu la, agana abolo si wowɔ kple amɔ maʋamaʋã kusi ɖeka, akpɔnɔ siwo wowɔ kple wɔ memee si dzi wokɔ ami ɖo, aboŋgo si wowɔ kple wɔ maʋamaʋã si dzi wokɔ ami ɖo, eye wòagatsɔ nuɖuvɔsa kple nunovɔsa akpe ɖe nu siawo ŋu.
and a basket of unleavened things of flour, cakes mixed with oil, and thin cakes of unleavened things anointed with oil, and their present, and their drink-offerings.
16 “‘Nunɔla la atsɔ nunana siawo ada ɖe Yehowa ŋkume. Atsɔ nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa la ana gbã, emegbe la, wòana numevɔsa la.
And the priest has brought [them] near before YHWH, and has made his sin-offering and his burnt-offering;
17 Le esiawo megbe la, atsɔ agbo la hena ŋutifafavɔsa na Yehowa kple abolo maʋamaʋã la ƒe kusi, eye wòawu enu kple nuɖuvɔsa la kple nunovɔsa la.
and he makes the ram [as] a sacrifice of peace-offerings to YHWH, besides the basket of unleavened things; and the priest has made its present and its drink-offering.
18 “‘Azɔ la, adzɔgbeɖela la ako eƒe ɖa ʋluya la, si nye eƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe ƒe dzesi. Awɔ nu sia le agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu. Le esia megbe la, woatsɔ ɖa si wòko la ade dzo me le ŋutifafavɔsa la te.
And the Nazarite has shaved (at the opening of the Tent of Meeting) the head of his separation, and has taken the hair of the head of his separation, and has put [it] on the fire which [is] under the sacrifice of the peace-offerings.
19 “‘Le takoko na adzɔgbeɖela la megbe la, nunɔla la atsɔ agbo la ƒe abɔ memee, abolo maʋamaʋãwo kple aboŋgo maʋamaʋãwo dometɔ ɖeka, eye wòatsɔ wo katã ade asi na adzɔgbeɖela la.
And the priest has taken the boiled shoulder from the ram, and one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one thin unleavened cake, and has put [them] on the palms of the Nazarite after his shaving [the hair of] his separation;
20 Nunɔla la anye wo katã le yame, tso afii yi afi mɛ le Yehowa ŋkume abe vɔsa ene. Wonye nunana kɔkɔe na nunɔla la kpe ɖe eƒe axa kple abɔ siwo wònye le yame le Yehowa ŋkume la ŋuti. Le esia megbe la, adzɔgbeɖela la ate ŋu ano wain azɔ, elabena evo tso eƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe me.
and the priest has waved them [as] a wave-offering before YHWH; it [is] holy to the priest, besides the breast of the wave-offering, and besides the leg of the raised-offering; and afterward the Nazarite drinks wine.
21 “‘Esiawoe nye se siwo ku ɖe ame si ɖe adzɔgbe be yeaɖe ye ɖokui ɖe aga ɣeyiɣi aɖe na Yehowa kple eƒe vɔsawo ne ɣeyiɣi la wu enu la ŋu. Hekpe ɖe vɔsa siawo ŋu la, ele be adzɔgbeɖela la nagana nu bubu siwo ŋugbe wòdo le eƒe adzɔgbeɖeɣi.’”
This [is] the law of the Nazarite who vows his offering to YHWH for his separation, apart from that which his hand attains; according to his vow which he vows so he does by the law of his separation.”
22 Eye Yehowa ƒo nu kple Mose be,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
23 “Gblɔ na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo be: ‘Ale miayra Israelviwo, agblɔe nye esi:
“Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, Thus you bless the sons of Israel, saying to them:
24 “‘“Yehowa ayra wò, eye wòakpɔ dziwò!
YHWH bless you and keep you;
25 Yehowa akɔ ŋkume ɖe wò, eye wòave nuwò!
YHWH cause His face to shine on you, And favor you;
26 Yehowa atrɔ mo ɖe gbɔwò, eye wòana ŋutifafa wò.”’
YHWH lift up His countenance on you, And appoint for you—peace.
27 “Ale woayɔ nye ŋkɔ atɔ ɖe Israelviwo ŋu, eye mayra wo.”
And they have put My Name on the sons of Israel, and I bless them.”
