< 3 Mose 24 >

1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfo na wɔmmrɛ wo ngo kronkron na fa sɔ kanea sɛnea ɛrennum da.
“Command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.
3 Wɔ kaneadua a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ayɛ a esi ntwamtam a etwa kronkron mu kronkron no akyi no. Efi anwummere kosi anɔpa biara, Aaron bɛhwɛ akanea a ɛwɔ Awurade anim no so. Eyi bɛyɛ ayɛde a ɛbɛtena hɔ daa wɔ awo ntoatoaso nyinaa mu.
Outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, Aaron shall keep it in order from evening to morning before the LORD continually. It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.
4 Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhwɛ akanea a esisi sikakɔkɔɔ kaneadua so wɔ Awurade anim no so bere biara.
He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure gold lamp stand before the LORD continually.
5 “Momfa asikresiam muhumuhu nto brodo amuamu dumien a mua biara mode esiam lita anan ne fa na ɛbɛto.
“You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it: two tenths of an ephah shall be in one cake.
6 Monhyehyɛ no ntaataaso abien, a asia wɔ ntaataaso baako biara mu wɔ sikakɔkɔɔ kann pon no so wɔ Awurade anim.
You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure gold table before the LORD.
7 Mode aduhuam pa begu kyerɛpɛn biara ho de asi brodo no anan mu ayɛ afɔrebɔde a wɔhyew wɔ ogya so ma Awurade.
You shall put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be to the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire to the LORD.
8 Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde saa brodo yi sisi Awurade anim Homeda biara; ɛbɛyɛ apam a enni awiei ama Israelfo.
Every Sabbath day he shall set it in order before the LORD continually. It is an everlasting covenant on the behalf of the children of Israel.
9 Brodo yi yɛ Aaron ne ne mmabarima de, na ɛsɛ sɛ wodi wɔ kronkronbea hɔ, efisɛ ɛyɛ kronkron pa ara wɔ wɔn kyɛfa a ɛwɔ afɔrebɔde a wɔhyew ma Awurade no mu.”
It shall be for Aaron and his sons. They shall eat it in a holy place; for it is most holy to him of the offerings of the LORD made by fire by a perpetual statute.”
10 Da bi, aberante bi a ne na yɛ Israelni na nʼagya nso yɛ Misraimni ne Israelfo no baako nyaa ntɔkwaw wɔ wɔn atenae.
The son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out amongst the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelite woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp.
11 Ntɔkwaw no mu no, Israelni babarima no domee Onyankopɔn enti wɔde no baa Mose nkyɛn sɛ wommu no atɛn. Na ne na din de Selomit a ɔyɛ Dibri a ofi Dan abusua mu no babea.
The son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed; and they brought him to Moses. His mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
12 Wɔde no too afiase twɛn Awurade akwankyerɛ.
They put him in custody until the LORD’s will should be declared to them.
13 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
14 “Fa obusuyɛni no fi atenae ha kɔ na kɔka kyerɛ wɔn a wɔtee asɛm a ɔkae no nyinaa na wɔmfa wɔn nsa ngu nʼapampam; afei nnipa no nyinaa nsiw no abo nkum no.
“Bring him who cursed out of the camp; and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
15 Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se, ‘Obiara a ɔbɛdome Onyankopɔn no, ɛsɛ sɛ onya ho asotwe:
You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.
16 obiara a ogu Awurade din ho fi no, ɛsɛ sɛ wokum no. Ɛsɛ sɛ dɔm no nyinaa siw no abo. Ɔhɔho anaa Israelni biara a obegu Awurade din ho fi no, ɛsɛ sɛ wokum no.
He who blasphemes the LORD’s name, he shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall certainly stone him. The foreigner as well as the native-born shall be put to death when he blasphemes the Name.
17 “‘Obiara a okum ne yɔnko nipa no, ɛsɛ sɛ wokum no.
“‘He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death.
18 Obiara a okum aboa bi a ɛnyɛ ne dea no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ anan mu.
He who strikes an animal mortally shall make it good, life for life.
19 Sɛ obi pira ne yɔnko a, ɔyɔnko no nso bepira no bi saa ara.
If anyone injures his neighbour, it shall be done to him as he has done:
20 Dompe mu bu nsi dompe mu bu anan mu; ani nsi ani anan mu; ɛse nsi ɛse anan mu. Sɛnea obi pira ɔfoforo, no saa ara na wompira ɔno nso.
fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. It shall be done to him as he has injured someone.
21 Obiara a obekum aboa bi no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ anan mu; nanso sɛ obi kum onipa a, ɛsɛ sɛ wokum no bi.
He who kills an animal shall make it good; and he who kills a man shall be put to death.
22 Mmara koro no ara wɔ hɔ ma ɔhɔho ne kuroni. Mene Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn.’”
You shall have one kind of law for the foreigner as well as the native-born; for I am the LORD your God.’”
23 Enti Mose kasa kyerɛɛ Israelfo no, na woyii obusuyɛni no fii atenae hɔ kosiw no abo. Israelfo no yɛɛ sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and they brought him who had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. The children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.
