< ULevi 7 >
1 “‘Le yimithetho ephathelene lomnikelo wecala, oyiwo ongcwele kakhulu.
“‘Amanne a ɛfa afɔdi afɔrebɔ a ɛyɛ kronkron ho no ni:
2 Umnikelo wecala kufanele uhlatshelwe endaweni lapho umnikelo wokutshiswa ohlatshelwa khona, njalo igazi lawo kufanele lichelwe emaceleni wonke e-alithare.
Wobekum aboa a wɔde no rebɔ afɔdi afɔre no wɔ beae a wokum aboa a wɔde no bɔ ɔhyew afɔre no na wɔde ne mogya no apete afɔremuka no ho ahyia.
3 Wonke amahwahwa awo azanikelwa: umsila ononileyo kanye ledanga elembesa ezangaphakathi,
Ɔsɔfo no de aboa no mu srade nyinaa, ne dua,
4 izinso zombili lamahwahwa azo aseduzane lesinqe, lamahwahwa aphezu kwesibindi, okufanele kukhutshwe lezinso.
nʼasaabo abien ne ne sisia srade ne ne bɔnwoma kotoku no nyinaa begu nkyɛn de abɔ saa afɔre no.
5 Umphristi uzakukutshisela e-alithareni njengomhlatshelo wokudla onikelwa kuThixo. Kungumnikelo wecala.
Ɔsɔfo no bɛhyew no afɔremuka no so sɛ aduan afɔrebɔ a wɔde rema Awurade. Ɛyɛ afɔdi afɔre.
6 Wonke owesilisa emulini yomphristi angakudla, kodwa kufanele kudlelwe endaweni engcwele; ngoba kungcwele kakhulu.
Ɔbarima a ɔfra asɔfo abusua mu no mu tumi we nam no bi. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔwe wɔ beae a ɛhɔ yɛ kronkron, efisɛ ɛyɛ afɔrebɔde a ɛho tew yiye.
7 Umthetho munye uyasetshenziswa emnikelweni wesono kanye lemnikelweni wecala. Ungowomphristi owenza kube lendlela yokubuyisana labo.
“‘Amanne koro no ara na wɔbɛfa so abɔ bɔne afɔre ne afɔdi afɔre no. Ɛyɛ ɔsɔfo a ɔyɛɛ mpata maa wɔn no de.
8 Umphristi onikela umnikelo wokutshiswa kabani lobani angazigcinela isigogo.
Ɔsɔfo a odii ɔhyew afɔrebɔ no ho dwuma no betumi afa aboa no ho nwoma no.
9 Wonke umnikelo wamabele ophekelwa eziko, loba ophekelwa embizeni, loba embizeni yensimbi ungowomphristi owunikelayo,
Sɛ asɔfo a wɔbɔ atoko ho afɔre ma Awurade no wie saa afɔrebɔ no a, wɔde atoko no nkae bɛma wɔn. Sɛ afɔrebɔde no, wɔto o, wɔkyew o, wɔnoa o, amanne koro no ara ase na ɛhyɛ.
10 njalo wonke umnikelo wamabele oyabe uhlanganiswe lamafutha loba womile, wonke ungowamadodana ka-Aroni ngokulinganayo.’”
Atoko afɔrebɔ biara a aka no, sɛ wɔde ngo fra anaa wɔamfa ngo amfra a, ɛyɛ Aaron mmabarima nyinaa dea.
11 “‘Le yimithetho ephathelene lomnikelo wobudlelwano umuntu angawunikela kuThixo:
“‘Amanne a ɛfa asomdwoe afɔre sononko a wɔbɔ ma Awurade no ho no ni:
12 Nxa unganikelwa njengendlela yokubonga, kumele lumnikelo wokubonga unikelwe ndawonye lesinkwa esenziwe singelamvubelo sahlanganise lamafutha, amakhekhe ayizicecedu enziwe engelamvubelo njalo egcotshwe ngamafutha, kanye lamakhekhe efulawa ecolekileyo avutshwe kuhle ahlanganiswa lamafutha.
“‘Sɛ ɛyɛ asomdwoe afɔre a, wɔmfa brodo a mmɔkaw nni mu a wɔde ngo afra nka ho. Saa ara na wɔmfa brodo ntrantraa bi a wɔde ngo agu so ne asikresiam mfrafrae a wɔde afra ngo nka saa afɔrebɔde no ho.
13 Umnikelo wakhe wobudlelwano ongowokubonga kumele unikelwe ndawonye lomnikelo wezinkwa ezenziwe ngemvubelo.
Wɔmfa brodo a emu piw a wɔde mmɔkaw afra nka saa aseda asomdwoe afɔre yi ho.
14 Kufanele alethe okukodwa komhlobo munye ngamunye njengomnikelo onikelwa kuThixo. Ungowomphristi ochela igazi lomnikelo wobudlelwano.
Wɔde saa afɔrebɔde yi bi begyina afɔremuka no anim na wɔahim wɔ afɔremuka no anim akɔ fa aba fa de akyerɛ sɛ wɔde ama Awurade. Afei, wɔbɛdan afɔrebɔde no ama ɔsɔfo a ɔpete aboa a wɔde no bɛbɔ afɔre no mogya a ɔboa dwumadi no.
15 Inyama yomnikelo wakhe wobudlelwano ingeyokubonga, kumele idliwe ngalelolanga inikelwa. Akumelanga eyinye isalele elakusasa.
Sɛ wɔde aboa no bɔ Awurade afɔre de ma no sɛ asomdwoe afɔrebɔ de kyerɛ sɛ ɛyɛ anisɔ ne asedade a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔwe ne nam da no ara. Ɛnsɛ sɛ bi ka ma ade kye so.
16 Kodwa nxa umnikelo wakhe ungenxa yokugcwalisa isifungo loba ungumnikelo wesihle, umhlatshelo lowo uzadliwa ngalelolanga lokuwunikela, kodwa okuyabe kusele kungadliwa ngelanga elilandelayo.
“‘Na sɛ obi de afɔrebɔde bi ba a ɛnyɛ asomdwoe afɔre na mmom, sɛ ɛyɛ bɔhyɛ anaa efi ne koma mu na ɔde rebrɛ Awurade de a, nea ɛbɛka biara wɔ afɔrebɔ no akyi no, sɛ ade kye so a, wotumi we.
17 Yonke inyama yomhlatshelo esalayo kuze kwedlule insuku ezintathu kufanele itshiswe.
Afɔrebɔ nam biara a ebedi nnansa no de, wɔnhyew.
18 Nxa kulenyama yomnikelo wobudlelwano engadliwa ngelanga lesithathu, lowo oyinikeleyo kasoze amukeleke. Ayisoze ibalelwe kulowo oyinikeleyo, ngoba ingahlambulukanga. Umuntu odla enye yayo uzakuba lomlandu ngayo.
Sɛ obi we nea adi nnansa no bi a, Awurade rennye afɔrebɔde no; na ɛrenni mu sɛ afɔrebɔde, na onipa a ɔde bae sɛ wɔmfa mmɔ saa afɔre no rennya so mfaso biara. Ɔsɔfo a ɔbɛwe no nso bedi ho fɔ, efisɛ ɛyɛ akyiwade ma Awurade; na onipa a ɔbɛwe saa nam no, ɛsɛ sɛ oyi ne ho ano wɔ saa bɔne no ho.
19 Inyama ethinta loba yini engcolileyo ngokomkhuba akumelanga idliwe; kumele itshiswe. Kodwa eyinye inyama ingadliwa yiloba ngubani ohlambulukileyo ngokomkhuba.
“‘Nam biara a ɛka biribi a wɔntew ho no, wɔnnwe; wɔnhyew. Nam biara a aka de, obiara a ne ho tew wɔ ho kwan sɛ ɔwe.
20 Kodwa nxa kulomuntu ongcolileyo angadla inyama yomnikelo wobudlelwano engekaThixo, lowomuntu kumele axotshwe ebantwini bakibo.
Ɔsɔfo biara a ne ho ntew na obedi asomdwoe afɔre no bi no, wobetwa no asu, efisɛ wagu ade kronkron ho fi.
21 Nxa kulomuntu othinta okuthile okungcolileyo, akukhathalekile kumbe kuyikungcola komuntu loba okwenyamazana loba okunye nje okungcolileyo, okwenyanyekayo, abesesidla inyama yomnikelo wobudlelwano engekaThixo, lowomuntu kumele axotshwe ebantwini bakibo.’”
Obiara a ɔde ne nsa bɛka biribi a ɛho ntew no, sɛ ɛyɛ onipa anaa aboa na oguu ho fi na obedii asomdwoe afɔrebɔde no bi no, wobetwa no asu, efisɛ wagu ade kronkron ho fi.’”
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
23 “Tshela abako-Israyeli uthi: ‘Lingaze ladla amahwahwa enkomo, awezimvu loba awembuzi.
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se wonnni srade, sɛ efi anantwi, nguan anaa mmirekyi mu.
24 Amahwahwa enyamazana ezifeleyo loba edatshulwe yizilo zeganga angasetshenziswa kokunye, kodwa akumelanga liwadle.
Sɛ ɔyare bi bɔ aboa bi na owu anaasɛ mmoa bɔne bi taataa aboa foforo bi kum no a, wonnni ne srade na mmom, wɔmfa nyɛ ade foforo.
25 Umuntu odla amahwahwa enyamazana okungenziwa ngayo umnikelo wokutshiswa kuThixo kumele axotshwe ebantwini bakibo.
Obiara a obedi srade a efi afɔrebɔde a wɔbɔ no ogya so de ma Awurade no, ɛsɛ sɛ wotwa no asu.
26 Njalo lingadli igazi lenyoni loba inyamazana yiphi kuzozonke izindawo elihlala kuzo.
Munnni mogya—sɛ ɛyɛ nnomaa anaa ntɔteboa.
27 Nxa umuntu esidla igazi, lowomuntu kumele axotshwe ebantwini bakibo.’”
Obiara a ɔbɛyɛ saa no, ɛsɛ sɛ wotwa no asu.”
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
29 “Tshela abako-Israyeli uthi: ‘Umuntu oletha umnikelo wobudlelwano kuThixo kumele alethe ingxenye yawo njengomhlatshelo wakhe kuThixo.
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfo se obiara a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔbɔ Awurade asomdwoe afɔre no, ɔno ara nkita mmra.
30 Kumele anikele ngezandla zakhe umhlatshelo wokudla kuThixo. Kumele alethe amahwahwa, ndawonye lesifuba, abesezunguza isifuba phambi kukaThixo njengomnikelo wokuzunguza.
Ɔmfa afɔrebɔde a ɛyɛ srade ne ne yan a wobehim wɔ afɔremuka no anim de ama Awurade no mmra.
31 Umphristi uzatshisa amahwahwa e-alithareni, kodwa isifuba ngesika-Aroni kanye lamadodana akhe.
Afei, ɔsɔfo no bɛhyew srade no wɔ afɔremuka no so na ne yan no de, Aaron ne ne mmabarima bɛfa.
32 Kumele uphe umphristi umlenze wesokunene eminikelweni yakho yobudlelwano ube ngumnikelo wakho.
Ɛsɛ sɛ mode mo asomdwoe afɔrebɔde no srɛ nifa no ma ɔsɔfo no sɛ mo fam de.
33 Indodana ka-Aroni enikela igazi lamahwahwa omnikelo wobudlelwano izathola umlenze wesokunene njengesabelo sayo.
Na Aaron mmabarima no mu nea ɔde mogya ne srade a efi afɔrebɔde no mu no bɛba afɔremuka no so no na ɔbɛfa srɛ nifa no.
34 Ngithethe isifuba esizunguzwayo kanye lomlenze onikelwayo emnikelweni wobudlelwano wabako-Israyeli ngapha u-Aroni umphristi kanye lamadodana akhe njengesabelo sabo sezikhathi zonke esivela kwabako-Israyeli.’”
Mahyɛ sɛ wɔmfa ne yan no ne ne srɛ no mma sɛ akyɛde a efi Israelfo nkyɛn a wɔde rebrɛ Aaron mmabarima. Bere biara, wɔmfa saa afɔrebɔde no kyɛfa yi no mma Aaron ne ne mmabarima.”
35 Le yingxenye yemihlatshelo yokudla enikelwa kuThixo eyabelwa u-Aroni kanye lamadodana akhe ngelanga abethulwa ngalo ukuba basebenzele uThixo njengabaphristi.
Wɔn akatua ne no: Ɔhyew afɔrebɔ no, wɔde bɛto nkyɛn na wɔde ama wɔn a wɔayi wɔn sɛ Awurade asɔfo a ɛyɛ Aaron ne ne mmabarima no.
36 Ngelanga abagcotshwa ngalo, uThixo walaya abako-Israyeli ukuthi banikele lokho njengasabelo sabo sezikhathi zonke kuzizukulwane ezizayo.
Efisɛ da a Awurade sraa wɔn ngo no, ɔhyɛɛ sɛ Israelfo mfa saa kyɛfa no mma wɔn; ɛyɛ wɔn kyɛfa daa daa wɔ awo ntoatoaso ɛbɛba nyinaa mu.
37 Le-ke yiyo imithetho emayelana lomnikelo wokutshiswa, umnikelo wamabele, umnikelo wesono, umnikelo wecala, umnikelo wokugcotshwa lomnikelo wobudlelwano,
Eyinom ne amanne a ɛfa ɔhyew afɔrebɔ, atoko afɔrebɔ, bɔne afɔrebɔ, afɔdi afɔrebɔ, ahotew afɔrebɔ ne asomdwoe afɔrebɔ ho.
38 uThixo awupha uMosi entabeni yeSinayi ngelanga alaya ngalo abako-Israyeli ukuthi balethe iminikelo yabo kuThixo, enkangala yaseSinayi.
Awurade de saa mmara yi maa Mose wɔ Sinai Bepɔw so sɛ ɔno nso mfa mma Israelfo no, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wobehu ɔkwan a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔfa so bɔ wɔn afɔre ahorow no de ma Onyankopɔn wɔ Sinai sare so hɔ.
