3 Mose 25
1 Mose wɔ Sinai Bepɔw so no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no se,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi entabeni yeSinayi isithi:
2 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se, ‘Sɛ mudu asase a mede rebɛma mo no so a, mfe ason biara, momma asase no nya Awurade mu homeda.
Tshono ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli uthi kubo: Nxa lifika elizweni engilinika lona, ilizwe lizaphumula, isabatha eNkosini.
3 Momfa mfe asia nnua mo nnɔbae wɔ mo mfuw mu na munyiyi mo bobe nturo mu na muntwa mo nnɔbae.
Iminyaka eyisithupha uzahlanyela insimu yakho, leminyaka eyisithupha uthene isivini sakho, ubuthe isithelo saso.
4 Na mfe ason so no, asase no nna hɔ kwa wɔ Awurade anim. Monnyɛ so hwee. Munnnua so aba. Afe no nyinaa mu, munnyiyi mo bobe nturo no mu.
Kodwa ngomnyaka wesikhombisa kuzakuba lesabatha lokuphumula kwelizwe, isabatha eNkosini. Kawuyikuhlanyela insimu yakho, ungatheni isivini sakho.
5 Na aba biara a ebefifi no, monntew mfa, na bobe no nso, mommmoaboa ano mfa. Efisɛ ɛyɛ afe a ɛsɛ sɛ asase no home.
Kawuyikuvuna umkhukhuzela wesivuno sakho, kaliyikukha izithelo zamavini akho angathenwanga. Uzakuba ngumnyaka wokuphumula welizwe.
6 Nanso aba biara a asase no bɛma saa afe no bɛyɛ aduan ama wo ne wʼakoa, wʼafenaa, wo paani ne wo hɔho,
Njalo isabatha lelizwe lizakuba yikudla kwenu, ngokwakho, lokwenceku yakho, lokwencekukazi yakho, lokoqhatshiweyo wakho, lokowemzini wakho ohlala lawe njengowezizwe,
7 wo nyɛmmoa ne wuram mmoa a ɛwɔ asase no so nyinaa. Munni biribiara a asase no bɛma biara.
lokwezifuyo zakho, lokwenyamazana eziselizweni lakho; konke elikuthelayo kuzakuba yikudla.
8 “‘Bubu Homeda mfe ason, mfe ason ahorow ason, na wubenya mfe aduanan akron.
Uzazibalela-ke amaviki ayisikhombisa eminyaka, iminyaka eyisikhombisa ephindwe kasikhombisa, ukuze insuku zamaviki ayisikhombisa eminyaka zibe yiminyaka engamatshumi amane lesificamunwemunye kuwe.
9 Afei, ɔsram a ɛto so ason no da du no yɛ Mpata Da. Monhyɛn torobɛnto wɔ baabiara. Mpata Da no, monhyɛn torobɛnto no denneennen nkyɛ wɔ ɔman no mu baabiara.
Khona uzadlulisa uphondo lomsindo omkhulu enyangeni yesikhombisa ngolwetshumi lwenyanga; ngosuku lwenhlawulo yokuthula lizadlulisa umsindo wophondo elizweni lonke lakini.
10 Montew mfe aduonum no ho na mompae ahofadi mma wɔn a wɔtete asase no so mmaa nyinaa. Ɛbɛyɛ mfirihyia aduonum afahyɛ ama mo, na mo mu biara bɛsan akɔ asase a wɔde ama mo agyanom no so, na moakɔka mo abusuafo ho.
Njalo lizangcwelisa lumnyaka wamatshumi amahlanu, limemezele inkululeko elizweni kubo bonke abakhileyo balo. Kuzakuba lijubili kini; lizabuyela, ngulowo lalowo, elifeni lakhe; futhi lizabuyela, ngulowo lalowo, kusapho lwakhe.
11 Mfe aduonum so no bɛyɛ mfirihyia aduonum afahyɛ ama mo; munnnua biribiara na munntwa nnɔbae biara, na bobe a moadua nso, monntew so aba.
Umnyaka wamatshumi amahlanu uzakuba ngumnyaka wejubili kini; lingahlanyeli, lingavuni umkhukhuzela wawo, lingakhi ngawo kumavini angathenwanga.
12 Efisɛ ɛyɛ mfirihyia aduonum afahyɛ, na ɛsɛ sɛ ɛyɛ sononko na ɛho tew. Munni nea munya fi asase no mu nko ara.
Ngoba ulijubili, uzakuba ngcwele kini; lizakudla ensimini okuthelwayo kwayo.
13 “‘Saa mfirihyia aduonum afahyɛ yi, obiara bɛkɔ asase a wɔde maa nʼagyanom no so.
Ngomnyaka walelijubili lizabuyela, ngulowo lalowo elifeni lakhe.
14 “‘Sɛ wo ne wo yɔnko yɛ nhyehyɛe a wonam so retɔ anaa woretɔn agyapade bi a, ɛnsɛ sɛ obi sisi ne yɔnko.
Uba-ke uthengisa ulutho kumakhelwane wakho loba uthenga esandleni sikamakhelwane wakho, lingacindezelani.
15 Sɛ woretɔ asase afi wo yɔnko nkyɛn a, mobɛkan mfe dodow no so fa afi Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ a etwaa mu no. Ɔdetɔnfo no begye wo bo a egyina mfe dodow a aka ansa na mfirihyia aduonum afahyɛ a ɛreba no.
Ngokwenani leminyaka emva kwejubili uzathenga kumakhelwane wakho; ngokwenani leminyaka yokuthelwayo uzakuthengisela.
16 Mfe no dodow na ɛma ɛbo no kɔ soro. Saa ara nso na mfe kakra bi ma ɛbo no kɔ fam. Eyinom nyinaa mu no, onipa a ɔretɔn asase no retɔn otwa dodow a wobetwa afi asase no so.
Ngobunengi beminyaka uzakwandisa intengo yakho; njalo ngobulutshwana beminyaka uzanciphisa intengo yakho; ngoba ekuthengisela inani lezivuno.
17 Munsuro mo Nyankopɔn na obi ansisi ne yɔnko. Na mene Awurade.
Ngakho lingacindezelani, kodwa wesabe uNkulunkulu wakho. Ngoba ngiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
18 “‘Sɛ mopɛ sɛ motena asase no so asomdwoe mu de a, munni me mmara so.
Ngakho yenzani izimiso zami, ligcine izahlulelo zami, lizenze, ukuze lihlale elizweni livikelekile.
19 Sɛ moyɛ osetie a, aduan bebu so wɔ asase no so na moadi amee wɔ asomdwoe mu.
Lelizwe lizathela izithelo zalo, lidle lize lisuthe, lihlale kulo livikelekile.
20 Mubebisa se, “Na sɛ wose yennnua anaa yenntwa saa afe no so a, dɛn na yebedi wɔ mfe ason no so no?”
Uba-ke lisithi: Sizakudlani ngomnyaka wesikhombisa? Khangela, kasihlanyeli, kasibuthi isivuno sethu.
21 Mmuae ara ne sɛ, mfe asia no so, mehyira mo ama nnɔbae aba abu so kosi sɛ mubetwa mfe awotwe mu nnɔbae no.
Khona ngizalaya isibusiso sami kini ngomnyaka wesithupha, ukuze uthele isivuno seminyaka emithathu.
22 Sɛ mudua nnɔbae wɔ mfe awotwe no mu a, mobɛkɔ so adi afe a etwaa mu no mu nnuan. Nokware, nnuan dedaw no na mubedi akosi sɛ otwabere bedu so mfe akron no mu.
Njalo lizahlanyela ngomnyaka wesificaminwembili lidle okwesivuno esidala kuze kufike umnyaka wesificamunwemunye; kuze kufike isivuno sawo lizakudla esidala.
23 “‘Na monkae sɛ asase no yɛ me dea enti munni ho kwan sɛ motɔn no afebɔɔ. Moyɛ ahɔho na meyɛ asase wura ma mo.
Lelizwe kaliyikuthengiswa lanininini, ngoba ilizwe ngelami; ngoba lingabemzini labahlala njengabezizwe lami.
24 Asasetɔn mu no, ɛsɛ sɛ moyɛ nhyehyɛe sɛ asasetɔnfo no tumi san begye asase no bere biara.
Lelizweni lonke lelifa lenu lizavumela uhlengo lwelizwe.
25 “‘Sɛ ohia hia obi ma ɔtɔn nʼasase fa bi a, nʼabusuafo tumi begye.
Uba umfowenu esiba ngumyanga, athengise okwelifa lakhe, uzafika umhlengi wakhe eyisihlobo sakhe, ahlenge lokho umfowabo akuthengisileyo.
26 Sɛ onni obi a obegye ama no na sɛ ɔno ankasa nya sika a,
Njalo umuntu, uba engelaye umhlengi, kodwa isandla sakhe sifinyelele, athole okwenele uhlengo lwakhe,
27 wɔbɛsese ɛso nnɔbae a wɔatwa ansa na Ahosɛpɛw Afe no reba na wɔagyina so atua ka no, na nea ɔtɔe no nso adan asase no ama no.
kabale iminyaka yokuthengiswa kwalo, abuyisele okuseleyo kulowomuntu owamthengisela lona, abuyele elifeni lakhe.
28 Na sɛ nea asase no yɛ ne de no ankasa antumi annye a, ɛno de, ɛbɛyɛ nea ɔtɔ no dea ara kosi Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no, na nea ɔtɔe no de onipa no ade asan ama no.
Kodwa uba isandla sakhe singatholanga okwenele ukubuyisela kuye, okuthengisiweyo kuzakuba sesandleni sokuthengileyo kuze kufike umnyaka wejubili; kodwa ngejubili kuzaphuma, njalo uzabuyela elifeni lakhe.
29 “‘Sɛ obi tɔn ofi wɔ kurom a, ɔwɔ afe a otumi san gye nʼade a biribiara nsiw no ho kwan.
Umuntu, uba ethengisa-ke indlu yokuhlala emzini olomthangala, ilungelo lohlengo lwayo lizakuba kuze kuphele umnyaka wokuthengiswa kwayo; ilungelo lohlengo lwayo lizakuba ngumnyaka wonke.
30 Na sɛ afe no mu wantumi annye a, ɛbɛyɛ nea ɔtɔe no de korakora. Ɔrensan mfa mma onipa a kan no na ɛyɛ ne dea no wɔ Ahosɛpɛw Afe no mu.
Kodwa uba ingahlengwanga uze umnyaka wayo wonke ugcwale, leyondlu esemzini olomthangala izamiselwa lowo owayithengayo njalonjalo, ezizukulwaneni zakhe; kayiyikuphuma ngejubili.
31 Nanso akuraa dan a wɔntoo ɔfasu ntwaa ho nhyiae te sɛ agyapade a ɛwɔ wuram de, wotumi san kogye no bere biara, na Mfe Aduonum Afahyɛ mu no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsan de ma ne wura ankasa.
Kodwa izindlu zemizi engabiyelwanga ngomthangala zizabalwa njengensimu yelizwe; kulohlengo lwayo, njalo izaphuma ngejubili.
32 “‘Asɛm baako bi na ɛnka ho. Lewifo afi a ɛwɔ nkurow a wɔde afasu atwa ho mu no, wotumi san gye no bere biara.
Mayelana lemizi yamaLevi, izindlu zemizi yelifa lawo, amaLevi azakuba lohlengo lwaphakade.
33 Enti Lewifo de, wotumi gye wɔn agyapade; wɔn kurow biara mu ofi a wɔtɔnee, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔdan ma wɔn wuranom wɔ Ahosɛpɛw Afe no mu, efisɛ afi no yɛ wɔn dea.
Uba kungohlenga kumaLevi, kuzaphuma ukuthengiswa kwendlu lokomuzi welifa lakhe ngejubili; ngoba izindlu zemizi yamaLevi ziyilifa lawo phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
34 Ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔtɔn nsase a atwa Lewifo no nkurow ho ahyia, efisɛ eyinom yɛ wɔn agyapade afebɔɔ a ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔne obiara kyɛ.
Kodwa insimu yamaphethelo emizi yawo kayiyikuthengiswa, ngoba iyilifa lawo kuze kube nininini.
35 “‘Sɛ ohia hia wo nua a, ɛsɛ sɛ woboa no; ma no mmra ma ɔmmɛtena hɔ bi.
Uba-ke umfowenu esiba ngumyanga, lesandla sakhe sixega kuwe, uzamsekela: Owemzini lohlezi njengowezizwe, ukuze aphile lawe.
36 Suro wo Nyankopɔn na ma wo nua ntena wo nkyɛn; na sɛ wobɔ no bosea a, nnye no ho mfɛntom.
Ungathathi kuye umvuzo lenzuzo, kodwa wesabe uNkulunkulu wakho, ukuze umfowenu aphile lawe.
37 Kae sɛ worennye ho mfɛntom biara; na ma no biribiara a ɛho hia no na ɛnyɛ wo ka. Mpɛ mfaso!
Ungamuphi imali yakho ngenzalo, futhi ungaphi ukudla kwakho ngenzuzo.
38 Efisɛ me Awurade a meyɛ mo Nyankopɔn no yii mo fii Misraim de Kanaan asase maa mo sɛnea mɛyɛ mo Nyankopɔn.
NgiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu owalikhupha elizweni leGibhithe ukulinika ilizwe leKhanani, ukuze ngibe nguNkulunkulu wenu.
39 “‘Sɛ ohia hia wo yɔnko Israelni na ɔtɔn ne ho ma wo a, nhyɛ ne so sɛ ɔdɔnkɔ;
Uba-ke umfowenu olawe esiba ngumyanga, azithengise kuwe, ungamenzi asebenze njengesigqili;
40 na mmom, yɛ no sɛ obi a wutua no ne som a ɔsom ho ka, anaa fa no sɛ wo hɔho na ɔnsom wo nkosi Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no.
uzakuba lawe njengoqhatshiweyo, njengohlala njengowezizwe, asebenze kuwe kuze kufike umnyaka wejubili.
41 Edu saa bere no a, ɔne ne mma nyinaa tumi tu de wɔn agyapade nyinaa kɔ wɔn abusuafo nkyɛn.
Khona ezaphuma kuwe, yena labantwana bakhe laye, abuyele kwabomdeni wakhe, abuyele elifeni laboyise.
42 Efisɛ Israelfo no yɛ mʼasomfo a mede wɔn fi Misraim asase so bae; ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔtɔn wɔn sɛ nkoa.
Ngoba ziyizinceku zami engazikhupha elizweni leGibhithe; kaziyikuthengiswa ngokuthengiswa kwesigqili.
43 Mommfa atirimɔden nni wɔn so; munsuro mo Nyankopɔn.
Ungambusi nzima, kodwa wesabe uNkulunkulu wakho.
44 “‘Nanso mubetumi atɔ asomfo afi aman afoforo a atwa mo ho ahyia no so.
Lesigqili sakho lesigqilikazi sakho ozakuba lazo, zizavela ezizweni ezilizingelezeleyo; kuzo lizathenga isigqili kumbe isigqilikazi.
45 Saa ara nso na mutumi tɔ ahɔho a mo ne wɔn te no mma a ɛmfa ho sɛ wɔte mo mu.
Futhi-ke ebantwaneni balabo abahlala njengabemzini abahlala njengabezizwe lani, kubo lingazithenga lakuzizukulwana zabo ezilani, abazizalela elizweni lakini, njalo bazakuba yimfuyo yenu.
46 Mubetumi ayɛ wɔn nkoa afebɔɔ ama mo ne mo nkyirimma, nanso mo nuanom Israelfo no de, ɛnsɛ sɛ moyɛ wɔn saa.
Njalo lizazenza abafuyi bazo lisenzela abantwana benu emva kwenu ukuze badle ilifa lemfuyo; lizabasebenzisa kuze kube nininini. Kodwa phakathi kwabafowenu, abantwana bakoIsrayeli, kaliyikubusa nzima, omunye phezu komunye.
47 “‘Sɛ ɔhɔho a ɔte mo mu no bɛyɛ ɔdefo, na sɛ Israelni di hia, na ɔtɔn ne ho ma ɔhɔho no anaa ɔhɔho no abusuafo a,
Uba-ke isandla sowezizweni loba sowemzini ohlala lawe sesifinyelele enothweni, lomfowenu olaye abe ngumyanga, azithengise kowemzini, owezizweni ohlala lawe, kumbe kusendo lwesizukulwana sowemzini,
48 ɔwɔ kwan sɛ wogye no wɔ ne tɔn akyi; ne nuanom bi tumi begye no.
esezithengisile kungaba lokuhlengwa kwakhe; omunye wabafowabo angamhlenga,
49 Saa ara nso na ne wɔfa, ne wɔfaase anaa ne ho nipa bi a ɔbɛn no tumi gye no ara ne no. Sɛ ɔno ara nso benya sika a, otumi de begye ne ho.
loba umfowabo kayise, loba umtanomfowabo kayise angamhlenga, kumbe isihlobo sakhe segazi emdeni wakhe singamhlenga; uba isandla sakhe sesifinyelele enothweni, angazihlenga.
50 Ne ho a obegye no gyina mfe a aka na Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no adu ne sika dodow a sɛ anka wɔde kɔfaa ɔsomfo a, anka obegye saa mfe a aka no mu no so.
Uzabalisana lowamthengayo, kusukela emnyakeni owazithengisa kuye ngawo kuze kufike umnyaka wejubili; ukuze imali yentengiso yakhe izakuba njengenani leminyaka, njengensuku zoqhatshiweyo kuzakuba njalo ngaye.
51 Sɛ aka mfe pii ansa na Ahosɛpɛw Afe no aso a, obetua sika a ogyee wɔ bere a ɔtɔn ne ho no nyinaa.
Uba kuseleminyaka eminengi, ngokungayo uzabuyisela uhlengo lwakhe, emalini yokuthengwa kwakhe.
52 Sɛ mfe no pii atwam ama aka kakra na Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no adu a, ɛno de, obetua sika a ogyee bere a ɔtɔn ne ho no mu kakraa bi.
Uba-ke kusele iminyaka emilutshwana kuze kufike umnyaka wejubili, uzabalisana laye; njengokweminyaka yakhe uzabuyisela uhlengo lwakhe.
53 Sɛ ɔtɔn ne ho ma ɔhɔho a, ɔhɔho no bɛfa no sɛ ne somfo a otua no ka. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔfa no sɛ ne somfo koraa anaa nʼagyapade.
Uzakuba laye njengoqhatshiweyo iminyaka ngeminyaka; kayikumbusa nzima phambi kwamehlo akho.
54 “‘Sɛ Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no du na wonnyee no a, wobegyaa ɔne ne mma nyinaa,
Kodwa uba engahlengwanga ngalokhu, uzaphuma ngomnyaka wejubili, yena labantwana bakhe kanye laye.
55 efisɛ wɔyɛ mʼasomfo. Mede wɔn fi Misraim na ɛbae. Mene Awurade mo Nyankopɔn no.
Ngoba kimi abantwana bakoIsrayeli bazinceku, bazinceku zami engazikhupha elizweni leGibhithe. NgiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
