ULevi 15
1 UThixo wathi kuMosi lo-Aroni,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron se,
2 “Khulumani labako-Israyeli lithi kubo: ‘Nxa indoda iphuma ubovu, ubovu obuphumayo bungcolile.
“Monhyɛ saa mmara yi mma Israelfo: ‘Ɔbarima biara a ne ho bɛsen nsu no, saa nsu no yɛ fi.
3 Lanxa buthonta emzimbeni wakhe loba buvalekile, bumenza abe ngongcolileyo. Lokhu yikho okwenza ubovu obuphuma emzimbeni wakhe bumenze abe ngongcolileyo:
Sɛ ɛkɔ so sen o, egyae o, agu ne ho fi. Fi a nsu a egu no no de bɛba ni:
4 Loba yiwuphi umbheda indoda le ephuma ubovu ezalala kuwo, uzakuba ngongcolileyo, njalo loba kuyini okuzahlala phezu kwawo, kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo.
“‘Mpa a ɔbɛda so ne biribiara a ɔbɛtena so nso ho gu fi.
5 Loba ngubani othinta umbheda wakhe kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe, abesegeza ngamanzi, uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Obiara a ɔde ne ho ka ɔbarima no mpa ho gu fi kosi anwummere, enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhoro ne ntama na oguare.
6 Loba ngubani ozahlala loba kuphezu kwani lapho okuke kwahlala khona indoda ethonta ubovu, kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe abesegeza ngamanzi, uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Obiara a ɔbɛtena akongua a ɔbarima no atena so so ho gu fi kosi anwummere, enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhoro ne ntama na oguare.
7 Loba ngubani ozathinta lindoda kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe abesegeza ngamanzi, ngalokho uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
“‘Saa mmara yi ka obiara a ɔde ne ho bɛka ɔbarima no.
8 Nxa indoda ephuma ubovu ingakhafulela omunye ongelabo, lowomuntu kagezise izigqoko zakhe abesegeza ngamanzi, yena uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
“‘Obiara a ɔbarima no bɛte ntasu agu ne so no ho ntew kosi anwummere, enti ɛsɛ sɛ onii no horo ne ntama na oguare.
9 Konke indoda le ehlala kukho igadile kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo,
“‘Ɔpɔnkɔ agua biara a ɔbɛtena so no ho agu fi.
10 njalo loba ngubani ozathinta loba yini yezinto ebezingaphansi kwakhe uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa, loba ngubani ozadobha lezozinto, kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe, abesegeza ngamanzi, njalo uzabe engongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Obiara a ne ho bɛka biribiara a aka saa onipa no ase no ho ntew kosi anwummere, enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhoro ne ntama na oguare.
11 Loba ngubani ozathintwa yindoda le ephuma ubovu engagezanga izandla zakhe ngamanzi kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe abesegeza ngamanzi, kodwa uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
“‘Sɛ onipa a ne ho ntew no koso obi mu na wanhohoro ne nsa ansa a, ɛsɛ sɛ onipa ko no horo ne ntama, guare, efisɛ ne ho ntew kosi anwummere.
12 Imbiza yomdaka ezathintwa yile indoda kufanele ibulawe, kuthi konke okwenziwe ngesigodo kumele kuhlanjululwe ngamanzi.
“‘Sɛ saa onipa no so asanka biara mu a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔbɔ no na sɛ ɛyɛ mukaase biribi a wɔde dua na asen de a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde nsu hohoro ho.
13 Nxa indoda isihlanjululwe ekuphumeni kwayo ubovu, kayibale insuku eziyisikhombisa kube yikuhlanjululwa kwayo ngokomkhuba; kufanele igezise izigqoko zayo, ibisigeza ngamanzi amahle andubana ihlambuluke.
“‘Sɛ nʼahosen no twa a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde nnanson fi ahodwira ho ahosiesie ase na ɔhoro ne ntama na okoguare wɔ asubɔnten mu.
14 Ngosuku lwesificaminwembili kufanele ithathe amajuba amabili, loba amaphuphu enkwilimba amabili ize phambi kukaThixo esangweni lethente lokuhlangana, iwaqhubele umphristi.
Da a ɛto so awotwe no, ɔde nturukuku abien anaa mmorɔnomamma abien bɛba Awurade anim wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no ano na ɔde ama ɔsɔfo no.
15 Umphristi uzanikela ngakho; okunye ngokomnikelo wesono, okunye ngokomnikelo wokutshiswa. Ngalokho, uzakwenza ukubuyisana phambi kukaThixo kwaleyondoda ngenxa yomkhuhlane wayo.
Ɔsɔfo no de wɔn bɛbɔ afɔre a baako yɛ bɔne ho afɔre na baako no nso yɛ ɔhyew afɔre; na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ɔsɔfo no bɛyɛ mpata wɔ Awurade anim ama ɔbarima no, esiane nʼahosen no nti.
16 Nxa indoda ivuza ubudoda, kumele igeze umzimba wayo wonke ngamanzi, njalo izakuba ngengcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
“‘Sɛ ɔbarima biara ho nsu gu a, ɛsɛ sɛ oguare ne ho nyinaa, efisɛ ne ho nso ntew kosi anwummere.
17 Loba yisiphi isigqoko kumbe isikhumba esilobudoda, kufanele sigeziswe ngamanzi, njalo kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Ntama anaa mpasotam biara a ho nsu no bi begu mu no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhoro, efisɛ ɛho ntew kosi anwummere.
18 Nxa indoda ingalala lowesifazane ichithe, kufanele ukuthi bobabili bageze ngamanzi, ngakho bazakuba ngabangcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Sɛ ɔbarima fa ɔbea a, wɔn nna no akyi, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔbea no ne ɔbarima no nyinaa guare, efisɛ wɔn ho ntew kosi anwummere.
19 Nxa owesifazane esemfuleni njengenjayelo, ukungcola kwakhe okubangelwa yikuba semfuleni kwakhe, kuzathatha insuku eziyisikhombisa, ngakho wonke omthintayo uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
“‘Sɛ ɔbea kɔ afikyiri a, ne ho ntew nnanson mu. Saa bere no mu, obiara a ɔde ne ho bɛka no no nso ho ntew kosi anwummere.
20 Yonke into owesifazane lo azalala phezu kwayo ngesikhathi esemfuleni izakuba ngengcolileyo, njalo loba kuyini azahlala phezu kwakho, sekungcolile.
“‘Biribiara a ɔbɛda so anaa ɔbɛtena so saa bere no mu no nso ho agu fi.
21 Ozathinta umbheda wakhe kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe abesegeza umzimba ngamanzi, njalo uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Obiara a ɔde ne nsa bɛka ne mpa anaa biribiara a ɔtena so no bɛhoro ne ntama, aguare, efisɛ onipa no ho agu fi kosi anwummere.
22 Loba ngubani ozathinta loba kuyini owesifazane lo abehlezi phezu kwakho kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe, ageze umzimba ngamanzi, njalo uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Sɛ obi so biribi a watena so mu nso a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhoro ne ntama na oguare, efisɛ ne ho agu fi kosi anwummere.
23 Akukhathalekile ukuba kungaba ngumbheda loba enye into nje owesifazane lo abehlezi kukho, umuntu loba engubani angakuthinta, uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Sɛ ɛyɛ ne mpasotam anaa nʼakongua, obiara a ne ho bɛka no ho begu fi akosi anwummere.
24 Nxa indoda ingalala lowesifazane osemfuleni ibe isithinta igazi lomopho wakhe, indoda izakuba ngengcolileyo okwensuku eziyisikhombisa, loba yiwuphi umbheda ezalala kuwo, uzakuba ngongcolileyo.
“‘Sɛ ɔbarima ne no da saa bere yi mu a, ɔbarima no ho gu fi nnanson; na mpa biara a ɔbarima no bɛda so no nso ho gu fi.
25 Nxa owesifazane angopha okwensuku ezithile zilandelana kodwa engekho emfuleni, loba esopha okwensuku ezedlula insuku zokopha nxa esemfuleni, uzakuba ngongcolileyo nxa ukopha kungakemi, njengasezinsukwini zakhe esemfuleni.
“‘Sɛ bere du sɛ ofi nanso mogya da so ba anaasɛ mogya ba bere a ɛnsɛ mu wɔ ɔsram no mu a, mmara koro no ara na wɔde ka ho asɛm,
26 Loba yiwuphi umbheda azalala kuwo nxa umopho uqhubeka, uzakuba ngongcolileyo, njengokungcola kombheda wakhe ngesikhathi esemfuleni, njalo konke ahlala phezu kwakho kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo, njengokungcola kwakhe nxa esemfuleni.
na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, biribiara a ɔbɛda so saa bere no ho agu fi te sɛ nea nʼafikyikɔ bere mu ɔtena biribi so a, ɛho gu fi no ara pɛ.
27 Loba ngubani ozathinta lezizinto uzakuba ngongcolileyo; kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe abesegeza ngamanzi, ngalokho uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Obiara a ɔde ne nsa bɛka ne mpa anaa biribiara a ɔtena so no ho agu fi a ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhoro ne ntama, san guare, efisɛ ne ho ntew kosi anwummere.
28 Nxa esehlanzekile ekopheni kwakhe, kufanele ahlale insuku eziyisikhombisa andubana ahlambuluke ngokomkhuba.
“‘Nnanson akyi, sɛ afikyikɔ no twa a, na onni efi mu bio.
29 Ngosuku lwesificaminwembili uzathatha amajuba amabili loba amaphuphu enkwilimba amabili akulethe kumphristi esangweni lethente lokuhlangana.
Da a ɛto so awotwe no, ɔde nturukuku abien anaa mmorɔnomamma abien bɛkɔ akɔma ɔsɔfo no wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no kwan ano.
30 Umphristi uzanikela okunye kube ngumnikelo wesono, kuthi okunye kube ngumnikelo wokutshiswa. Ngale indlela uzakwenza ukubuyisana kwakhe phambi kukaThixo ngenxa yokungcola kwakhe esopha.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no de baako bɔ bɔne ho afɔre na ɔde baako bɔ ɔhyew afɔre na ayɛ mpata ama ɔbea no wɔ Awurade anim wɔ nʼafikyikɔ mu no ho.
31 Kufanele wahlukanise abako-Israyeli ezintweni ezibangcolisayo, ukuze bangafeli ekungcoleni kwabo, bangcolise indawo engihlala kuyo, ephakathi kwabo.’”
“‘Saa ɔkwan yi so na sɛ Israelfo no bi ho gu fi a, mobɛfa de atew wɔn ho; anyɛ saa a, esiane sɛ wɔagu mʼAhyiae Ntamadan a esi wɔn mu no ho fi nti, wobewuwu.’”
32 Le yiyo imithetho eqondene lendoda ephuma ubovu, loba ngubani ongcoliswe yikuphuma ubudoda,
Eyinom ne mmara a ɛwɔ hɔ ma ɔbarima a ne ho sen
33 lowesifazane nxa esemfuleni, lendoda loba owesifazane okuphuma kuye okungcolileyo, njalo lendoda elala lowesifazane ongcolileyo ngokomkhuba.
ne ɔbea a wakɔ afikyiri ne obiara a ɔde ne ho ka ɔsakyimafo wɔ bere a ne ho ntew no mu no.
