3 Mose 10
1 Na Aaron mma Nadab ne Abihu de ogya guu wɔn aduhuamyɛfo ade mu. Wɔde aduhuam no petee ogya no so ma wɔnam saa kwan yi so buu Awurade mmara so, efisɛ wɔde ogya a ɛnyɛ nea Awurade ahyɛ baa nʼanim.
Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered strange fire before Yahweh, which he had not commanded them.
2 Enti ogya dɛw fii Awurade nkyɛn bɛhyew wɔn.
Fire came out from before Yahweh, and devoured them, and they died before Yahweh.
3 Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron se, Awurade kae se, “‘Mɛda me ho kronkronyɛ adi akyerɛ wɔn a wɔba me nkyɛn; wɔbɛhyɛ me anuonyam wɔ nnipa nyinaa anim no, na nea ɔrekyerɛ nen.’” Na asɛm no tɔɔ Aaron mum.
Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what Yahweh spoke of, saying, ‘I will show myself holy to those who come near me, and before all the people I will be glorified.’” Aaron held his peace.
4 Mose soma ma wɔkɔfrɛɛ Misael ne Elsafan a wɔyɛ Aaron agya nuabarima mma brɛɛ no. Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Monkɔtwe nnipa a wɔahyew no nyinaa mfi Ahyiae Ntamadan no anim mfa wɔn nkɔ nsraban no akyi.”
Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, “Draw near, carry your brothers from before the sanctuary out of the camp.”
5 Na wɔkɔsoaa wɔn wɔ wɔn ntade mu sɛnea Mose aka akyerɛ wɔn no.
So they came near, and carried them in their tunics out of the camp, as Moses had said.
6 Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron ne ne mmabarima Eleasar ne Itamar se, “Munnsu. Mommma mo tinwi nsensɛn hɔ yuu mmfa nkyerɛ sɛ moretwa agyaadwo. Munnsunsuane mo ntade mu nso. Sɛ moyɛ saa a, Onyankopɔn bekum mo nso na nʼabufuw bɛba Israelfo nyinaa so. Nanso Israelfo a wɔaka no de, esiane ogya a Awurade de bae no nti, wotumi di Nadab ne Abihu wu no ho awerɛhow, tumi su wɔn nso.
Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, “Don’t let the hair of your heads go loose, and don’t tear your clothes, so that you don’t die, and so that he will not be angry with all the congregation; but let your brothers, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which Yahweh has kindled.
7 Na mummfi Ahyiae Ntamadan no ano, anyɛ saa a mubewuwu, efisɛ Awurade ngosra wɔ mo so.” Na wodii asɛm a Mose kae no so.
You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, lest you die; for the anointing oil of Yahweh is on you.” They did according to the word of Moses.
8 Afei, Awurade hyɛɛ Aaron se,
Then Yahweh said to Aaron,
9 “Sɛ wokɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu a, nnom bobesa anaa nsa a ano yɛ den. Woyɛ saa a, wubewu. Saa mmara yi bɛtena hɔ afebɔɔ ama awo ntoatoaso a ɛbɛba no nyinaa,
“You and your sons are not to drink wine or strong drink whenever you go into the Tent of Meeting, or you will die. This shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.
10 na ama moatumi ahu nsonoe a ɛda kronkron ne nea ɛyɛ teta, nea ɛho tew ne nea ɛho ntew no tam,
You are to make a distinction between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean.
11 na woatumi akyerɛkyerɛ Israelfo mmara a Awurade nam Mose so de ama mo no nyinaa.”
You are to teach the children of Israel all the statutes which Yahweh has spoken to them by Moses.”
12 Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron ne ne mmabarima Eleasar ne Itamar se, “Momfa atoko afɔrebɔde nkae wɔ aduan afɔrebɔ a mmɔkaw nni mu a wɔde brɛɛ Awurade no na munni wɔ afɔremuka no ho, efisɛ ɛyɛ kronkron koraa.
Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons who were left, “Take the meal offering that remains of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, and eat it without yeast beside the altar; for it is most holy;
13 Munni wɔ kronkronbea hɔ. Ɛyɛ wo ne wo mmabarima no dea, na ɛyɛ wo ne wo mmabarima no kyɛfa a efi aduan afɔrebɔ a wɔde brɛɛ Awurade no mu; efisɛ saa na wɔahyɛ sɛ menyɛ.
and you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your portion, and your sons’ portion, of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire; for so I am commanded.
14 Nanso ne yan ne ne srɛ a muhim no Awurade anim no, mutumi we no beae biara a amanne kwan so no ɛhɔ tew. Ɛyɛ wo, wo mmabarima ne wo mmabea kyɛfa wɔ Israelfo Asomdwoe afɔrebɔde no mu.
The waved breast and the heaved thigh you shall eat in a clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you: for they are given as your portion, and your sons’ portion, out of the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the children of Israel.
15 Ne srɛ ne ne yan a wohim no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ka srade afɔrebɔde a wɔhyew de ma Awurade no ho. Eyi bɛyɛ wo ne wʼasefo kyɛfa daa, sɛnea Awurade ahyɛ no.”
They shall bring the heaved thigh and the waved breast with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before Yahweh. It shall be yours, and your sons’ with you, as a portion forever, as Yahweh has commanded.”
16 Bere a Mose bisaa nea ayɛ abirekyi a wɔde no bɛbɔ bɔne afɔre no ho asɛm no, ohuu sɛ wɔahyew no. Ɛno nti, ne bo fuw Eleasar ne Itamar a na wɔyɛ Aaron mmabarima no, bisae se,
Moses diligently inquired about the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burned. He was angry with Eleazar and with Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying,
17 “Adɛn nti na moanwe bɔne afɔrebɔde no wɔ kronkronbea hɔ? Ɛyɛ afɔrebɔde kronkron! Wɔde maa mo sɛ momfa nyi nnipa no afɔdi na ɛnyɛ mpata mma wɔn wɔ Awurade anim.
“Why haven’t you eaten the sin offering in the place of the sanctuary, since it is most holy, and he has given it to you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before Yahweh?
18 Esiane sɛ wɔamfa ne mogya ankɔ kronkronbea hɔ no nti, anka mubetumi awe wɔ hɔ ara sɛnea mehyɛe no.”
Behold, its blood was not brought into the inner part of the sanctuary. You certainly should have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I commanded.”
19 Aaron buaa Mose se, “Nnɛ wɔbɔɔ wɔn bɔne afɔre ne ɔhyew afɔre maa Awurade. Nanso hwɛ asɛm yi a ato me. Sɛ mewee bɔne afɔre nam yi bi nnɛ a, anka Awurade ani bɛsɔ ana?”
Aaron spoke to Moses, “Behold, today they have offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before Yahweh; and such things as these have happened to me. If I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been pleasing in Yahweh’s sight?”
20 Na Mose tee saa no, ne bo dwoe.
When Moses heard that, it was pleasing in his sight.
