Hesekiel 45
1 “‘Sɛ mokyekyɛ asase no mu sɛ agyapade a, ɛsɛ sɛ mode fa bi ma Awurade sɛ ɔmantam kronkron a ne tenten yɛ anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahanum, na ne trɛw nso yɛ anammɔn mpem aduasa; saa beae no nyinaa bɛyɛ kronkron.
And when ye divide the land by lot for an inheritance, shall ye offer an oblation unto the Lord, as a holy portion of the land, five and twenty thousand rods in length, and in breadth ten thousand. This shall be holy in all its extent round about.
2 Wobegyaw asase yi mu bi a ɛyɛ ahinanan a ne fa biara yɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum ama kronkronbea, na mfikyisase a atwa ho ahyia no trɛw yɛ anammɔn aduɔson anum.
Of this there shall be for the sanctuary five hundred [rods] by five hundred, square round about; and fifty cubits as an open space for it round about.
3 Munsusuw ɔmantam kronkron asase no mu bi a ne tenten yɛ anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahannum na ne trɛw nso yɛ anammɔn mpem dunum. Ɛhɔ na wobesi kronkronbea, Kronkron Mu Kronkron no.
And of this measure shalt thou measure, in length five and twenty thousand, and in breadth ten thousand [rods]: and in it shall be the sanctuary [and] the holy of holies.
4 Ɛbɛyɛ asase no fa a ɛyɛ kronkron ma asɔfo a wɔsom wɔ kronkronbea na wɔbɛn Awurade, na wɔsom wɔ nʼanim. Ɛhɔ na wobesisi wɔn afi na ayɛ beae kronkron ama kronkronbea no nso.
The holy portion of the land shall it be, for the priests the ministers of the sanctuary shall it be, who come near to minister unto the Lord; and it shall be unto them a place for houses, and a holy place for the sanctuary.
5 Asase a ne tenten yɛ anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahannum na ne trɛw nso yɛ anammɔn mpem dunum bɛyɛ beae a wɔbɛkyekye nkurow ama Lewifo a wɔsom wɔ asɔredan mu no atena mu sɛ wɔn agyapade.
And five and twenty thousand [rods] in length, and ten thousand in breadth, shall also belong unto the Levites, the servants of the house, for themselves, as a possession, with twenty chambers.
6 “‘Wobegyaw asase a ne trɛw yɛ anammɔn mpem ason ne ahannum na ne tenten nso yɛ anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahannum a ɛtoa beae kronkron no so no ama kuropɔn no; ɛbɛyɛ Israelfi nyinaa de.
And as the possession of the city shall ye assign five thousand rods broad, and five and twenty thousand long, alongside the holy oblation: unto the whole house of Israel shall it belong.
7 “‘Ɔhene no bɛfa asase a ɛne ɔmantam kronkron no ne kuropɔn no dabea bɔ hye. Ɛbɛtrɛw akɔ atɔe fam ne apuei fam akɔpem atɔe ne apuei ahye so, na ɛne mmusuakuw no mu baako asase abɔ hye wɔ atifi fam ne anafo fam.
And the prince shall have that on the one side and on the other side of the holy oblation, and of the possession of the city, in front of the holy oblation, and in front of the possession of the city, on the west side westward, and on the east side eastward; and in length alongside one of the portions, both on the west border and on the east border.
8 Asase no bɛyɛ nʼagyapade wɔ Israel. Na me mmapɔmma renhyɛ me nkurɔfo so bio, na mmom wɔbɛma Israelfo kwan ama wɔafa asase no sɛnea wɔn mmusuakuw no te.
As landed property shall it be his possession in Israel: and my princes shall no more wrong my people; but the land shall they give to the house of Israel according to their tribes.
9 “‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Moadu akyiri pa ara. Israel mmapɔmma! Munnyae mo basabasayɛ ne mo nhyɛso na monyɛ nea ɛteɛ na eye. Munnyae me nkurɔfo nsase a mugyigyei no, Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Ye have done enough wrong, O princes of Israel: remove violence and robbery, and execute justice and righteousness; take away your exactions from my people, saith the Lord Eternal.
10 Ɛsɛ sɛ mode nsania ne asusude a ɛyɛ pɛ susuw ade.
Just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath shall ye have.
11 Kɛntɛn baako, a ɛyɛ lita ɔha aduɔwɔtwe abien, na mode besusuw ade biara dodow; ɛfah ne bat bɛyɛ kɛntɛn baako mu nkyemu du.
The ephah and the bath shall contain the same quantity, that the bath may contain the tenth part of a chomer, and the ephah the tenth part of a chomer: after the chomer shall the measure of contents be.
12 Dwetɛ mpɔw na mode besusuw ade mu duru. Dwetɛ mpɔw baako bɛyɛ gram du abien, na dwetɛ mpɔw aduosia ayɛ gram ahanson aduonu.
And the shekel shall be twenty gerahs: [in pieces of] twenty shekels, five and twenty shekels, fifteen shekels, shall be your maneh.
13 “‘Akyɛde sononko a ɛsɛ wode ma ni: Awi kilogram abiɛsa ne atoko kilogram abien ne fa.
This is the heave-offering that ye shall offer; The sixth part of an ephah of a chomer of wheat; and ye shall give the sixth part of an ephah of a chomer of barley;
14 Ngo dodow a wɔatwa ato hɔ no nyɛ lita abien ne fa.
And the fixed portion of oil shall be after the bath of oil, the tenth part of a bath out of the cor, ten baths reckoned to the chomer; for ten baths are a chomer;
15 Afei wɔmfa nguankuw ahannu a wɔwɔ Israel adidibea a hɔ wɔ nsu no mu baako. Eyinom na wɔde bɛyɛ aduan afɔrebɔde, ɔhyew afɔrebɔde ne asomdwoe afɔrebɔde a ɛbɛyɛ mpata ama nnipa no, Otumfo Awurade na ose.
And one lamb out of the flock, out of two hundred, out of the fat pastures of Israel, for meat-offerings, and for burnt-offerings, and for peace-offerings, to make an atonement for them, saith the Lord Eternal.
16 Ɛsɛ sɛ Israelfo nyinaa kɔka ɔheneba no ho na ɔde nʼafɔrebɔde ba.
All the people of the land shall be held bound for this heave-offering for the prince in Israel.
17 Ɛbɛyɛ ɔheneba no asɛde sɛ ɔde afɔrebɔde a wɔde ma ɔsom afahyɛ bi te sɛ ɔsram foforo afahyɛ, homenna ne nna a ɛtete saa no ba. Ɔde bɔne ho afɔrebɔde, ɔhyew ho afɔrebɔde, atoko afɔrebɔde, nsa afɔrebɔde ne asomdwoe afɔrebɔde bɛba abɛyɛ nkabomde ama Israel.
And upon the prince shall be the duty to furnish the burnt-offerings, the meat-offerings, and the drink-offerings, on the feasts, and on the new-moon days, and on the sabbaths, on all the festive seasons of the house of Israel: he himself shall prepare the sin-offering, and the meat-offering, and the burnt-offering, and the peace-offerings, to make an atonement in behalf of the house of Israel.
18 “‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Ɔsram a edi kan no da a edi kan no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde nantwinini ba baako a ne ho nni dɛm dwira kronkronbea hɔ.
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, In the first month, on the first of the month, shalt thou take a young bullock without blemish, and make an expiation for the sanctuary.
19 Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no de bɔne afɔrebɔde no mogya no bi keka asɔredan no apongua, afɔremuka no apa a ɛwɔ soro no ntwea so anan no ne mfimfini adiwo no apongua ho.
And the priest shall take some of the blood of the sin-offering, and put it upon the door-post of the house, and upon the four corners of the projection of the altar, and upon the door-post of the gate of the inner court.
20 Ɛsɛ sɛ woyɛ ade koro yi ara wɔ ɔsram no da a ɛto so ason de ma obiara a wanhyɛ da na ɔyɛɛ bɔne anaa nim a onnim nti ɔbɛyɛ bɔne, na wonam so de ayɛ mpata ama asɔredan no.
And so shalt thou do on the seventh day of the month for every one that erreth, and for him that hath sinned unawares; so shall ye atone for the house.
21 “‘Ɔsram a edi kan no da a ɛto so dunan no, ɛsɛ sɛ mudi Twam Afahyɛ a ɛyɛ aponto a wɔde nnanson na ɛyɛ no, saa bere no, mubedi brodo a mmɔkaw nni mu.
In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, shall ye have the passover: a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten.
22 Saa da no ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhene no de nantwinini a wɔde bɛbɔ afɔre ama no ne asase no so nnipa nyinaa ba.
And the prince shall prepare on that day in behalf of himself and in behalf of all the people of the land a bullock for a sin-offering.
23 Da biara wɔ nnanson Afahyɛ no mu, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhene no de nantwinini ason ne adwennini ason a wɔn ho nni dɛm biara ba sɛ ɔhyew afɔrebɔde ma Awurade, ne ɔpapo sɛ bɔne afɔrebɔde.
And on the seven days of the feast shall he prepare a burnt-offering to the Lord, seven bullocks and seven rams without blemish on every day of the seven days; and for a sin-offering a he-goat on every day.
24 Nea ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ba sɛ aduan afɔrebɔde yɛ kɛntɛn baako (lita aduonu abien) a ɛka nantwinini biara ho ne kɛntɛn baako (lita aduonu abien) nso a ɛka Odwennini baako biara ho. Ngo lita anan nso ka kɛntɛn biara ho.
And as a meat-offering an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram shall he prepare, and a hin of oil for each ephah.
25 “‘Nnanson Afahyɛ a wofi ase wɔ ɔsram a ɛto so ason no da a ɛto so dunum no mu no, ɔhene no de saa nneɛma no ara bɛba sɛ bɔne afɔrebɔde, ɔhyew afɔrebɔde, aduan afɔrebɔde ne ngo.
In the seventh month, on the fifteenth day of the month, on the feast, shall he prepare the like during the seven days, both the sin-offering, as also the burnt-offering, and the meat-offering, and the oil.
