< Mose 4 6 >
1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], 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 children of Israel [God prevails], and tell them: ‘When either man or woman shall make a special vow, the vow of a Nazarite ·Consecrated·, to separate himself to Adonai,
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 shall separate himself from wine and strong drink. He shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of fermented drink, neither shall he drink any juice of grapes, nor eat fresh grapes or dried.
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 shall eat nothing that is made of the grapevine, from the seeds even to the skins.
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 his vow of separation no razor shall come on his head, until the days are fulfilled, in which he separates himself to Adonai. He shall be holy. He shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow long.
6 “‘Le ɣeyiɣi si me wòɖe eɖokui ɖe aga na Yehowa la, mate ɖe ame kuku ŋu o.
“‘All the days that he separates himself to Adonai he shall not go near a dead body.
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,
He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die; because his separation to 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 Adonai.
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.
“‘If any man dies very suddenly beside him, and he defiles the head of his separation; then he shall shave his head in the day of his cleansing. On the seventh day he shall shave it.
10 Le ŋkeke enyilia gbe la, ele be wòatsɔ akpakpa eve alo ahɔnɛvi eve ayi na nunɔla le agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
On the eighth day he shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest, to the door 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.
The priest shall offer one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, and make atonement for him, because he sinned by reason of the dead, and shall make his head holy that same 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.
He shall separate to Adonai the days of his separation, and shall bring a male lamb a year old for a trespass offering; but the former days shall be void, because his separation was 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,
“‘This is the Torah ·Teaching· of the Nazarite ·Consecrated·: when the days of his separation are fulfilled, he shall be brought to the door 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 shall offer his offering to Adonai, one male lamb a year old without defect for a burnt offering, and one ewe lamb a year old without defect for a sin offering, and one ram without defect 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 matzah ·unleavened bread·, cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and their meal offering, 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.
The priest shall present them before Adonai, and shall offer 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.
He shall offer the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings to Adonai, with the basket of matzah ·unleavened bread·. The priest shall offer also its meal offering, 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.
The Nazarite ·Consecrated· shall shave the head of his separation at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and shall take the hair of the head of his separation, and put it on the fire which is under the sacrifice of 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.
The priest shall take the boiled shoulder of the ram, and one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and shall put them on the hands of the Nazarite ·Consecrated·, after he has shaved the head 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 shall wave them for a wave offering before Adonai. This is holy for the priest, together with the breast that is waved and the thigh that is offered. After that the Nazarite ·Consecrated· may drink 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 Torah ·Teaching· of the Nazarite ·Consecrated· who vows, and of his offering to Adonai for his separation, besides that which he is able to get. According to his vow which he vows, so he must do after the Torah ·Teaching· of his separation.’”
22 Eye Yehowa ƒo nu kple Mose be,
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
23 “Gblɔ na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo be: ‘Ale miayra Israelviwo, agblɔe nye esi:
“Speak to Aaron [Light-bringer] and to his sons, saying, ‘This is how you shall bless the children of Israel [God prevails].’ You shall tell them,
24 “‘“Yehowa ayra wò, eye wòakpɔ dziwò!
‘Adonai will bless you, and keep you.
25 Yehowa akɔ ŋkume ɖe wò, eye wòave nuwò!
Adonai will make his face to shine on you, and be gracious to you.
26 Yehowa atrɔ mo ɖe gbɔwò, eye wòana ŋutifafa wò.”’
Adonai will lift up his face toward you, and give you shalom ·complete peace·.’
27 “Ale woayɔ nye ŋkɔ atɔ ɖe Israelviwo ŋu, eye mayra wo.”
“So they shall put my name on the children of Israel [God prevails]; and I will bless them.”
