Amanani 17
1 UThixo wathi kuMosi,
Emegbe la, Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
2 “Tshela abako-Israyeli ukuthi bakuphe intonga ezilitshumi lambili, kuphume ibenye kumkhokheli munye ngamunye wesizwana sabokhokho bakhe. Bhala ibizo lendoda ngayinye entongeni yayo.
“Gblɔ na Israelviwo be, ‘Ele be toawo ƒe kplɔla ɖe sia ɖe natsɔ atikplɔ si dzi wòŋlɔ eƒe ŋkɔ ɖo la vɛ na wò.
3 Entongeni kaLevi uzabhala ibizo lika-Aroni, ngoba kumele kube lentonga eyodwa emele inhloko inye ngayinye yesizwana sabokhokho bayo.
Ele be Aron ƒe ŋkɔ nanɔ Levi ƒe viwo ƒe to la tɔ dzi.
4 Zifake ethenteni lokuhlangana phambi komtshokotsho wobufakazi, lapho engihlangana lawe khona.
Tsɔ atikplɔ siawo da ɖe agbadɔ la ƒe xɔ emetɔ me, afi si medoa go wò le, le nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ.
5 Intonga yendoda engizayikhetha izahluma, njalo mina ngizahle ngikuqede lokhu kukhonona okulokhu kuqhubeka kusolwa wena ngabako-Israyeli.”
Mawɔ atikplɔ siawo ŋu dɔ be made dzesi ame si metia, elabena amea ƒe atikplɔ azu ati gbagbe, eye wòadze! Ekema Israelviwo ƒe liʋĩliʋĩlilĩ ɖe mia ŋu nu atso!’”
6 Ngakho uMosi wakhuluma kwabako-Israyeli, abakhokheli babo bamnika intonga ezilitshumi lambili, ngayinye ingeyomkhokheli wesizwana sabokhokho bakhe, kwathi leka-Aroni yayibalelwa kuzo.
Ale Mose gblɔ nya la na Israelviwo. Kplɔlawo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe, ame siwo dome Aron hã nɔ la, tsɔ atikplɔ ɖeka vɛ.
7 UMosi wabeka intonga lezo phambi kukaThixo ethenteni lobufakazi.
Mose tsɔ atikplɔawo da ɖe Yehowa ŋkume le agbadɔ la ƒe xɔ emetɔ me.
8 Ngosuku olulandelayo uMosi wangena ethenteni lobufakazi wabona ukuthi intonga ka-Aroni eyayimele indlu kaLevi, yayisihlumile yaqhakaza, isilamaluba njalo isithele izithelo ze-alimondi.
Esi ŋu ke wòyi la, ekpɔ be Aron ƒe atikplɔ si nye Levi ƒe to la tɔ la dze, eye seƒoƒowo de asi keke me le eŋu!
9 Ngakho uMosi wazisusa zonke intonga phambi kukaThixo waziletha phambi kwabo bonke abako-Israyeli. Bazikhangela, ngulowo wathatha eyakhe intonga.
Esi Mose kɔ atikplɔawo tso Yehowa ƒe ŋkume do goe va fia Israelviwo la, wotsi yaa kple dzimaxɔse! Ame sia ame xɔ eƒe atikplɔ negbe Aron ko.
10 UThixo wathi kuMosi, “Buyisela intonga ka-Aroni phambi komtshokotsho wobufakazi, igcinwe khonapho ibe yisibonakaliso kulabo abahlamukayo. Lokhu kuzaqeda ukukhonona kwabo ngami, ukuze bangafi.”
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be wòatsɔ Aron ƒe atikplɔ la ada ɖe nubablaɖaka la xa, wòanɔ afi ma tegbetegbe be wòaɖo ŋku aglãdzedze sia dzi na ameawo. Ne ame aɖe galĩ liʋĩliʋĩ tso Aron ƒe nɔƒe ŋu la, ekema ele be Mose nahe atikplɔ la do goe, atsɔ afia ameawo. Nu sia ana be dzɔgbevɔ̃e bubu magava ameawo dzi o.
11 UMosi wenza khona lokho kanye uThixo ayemlaye ngakho.
Ale Mose wɔ nu siwo Yehowa ɖo nɛ.
12 Abako-Israyeli bathi kuMosi, “Sizakufa! Sifile, sonke sesifile!
Israelviwo gblɔ na Mose be, “Míaku! Míebu, mí katã míebu!
13 Loba ngubani ozasondela phansi kwethabanikeli likaThixo uzakufa. Sizakufa sonke na?”
Ame sia ame si ate ɖe Yehowa ƒe agbadɔ la ŋu la, aku. Ɖe mí katã míele kuku gea?”
