3 Mose 27
1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se, ‘Sɛ onipa bi hyɛ bɔ sɛ ɔde obi bɛma Awurade a, na sɛ ɔpɛ sɛ otua sika mmom a,
"Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, 'When a man makes a vow, the persons shall be for YHWH by your valuation.
3 obetua dwetɛ gram ahannum ne aduoson ama ɔbarima a wadi mfe aduonu kosi mfe aduosia,
Your valuation shall be of a male from twenty years old even to sixty years old, even your valuation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.
4 sɛ ɔyɛ ɔbea a wadi mfe aduonu kosi aduosia a, wobetua dwetɛ gram ahaasa ne aduanan,
If it is a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels.
5 abarimaa a wadi mfe anum kosi aduonu no nso wobetua dwetɛ gram ahannu ne aduasa. Sɛ ɔyɛ ɔbea a, wobetua dwetɛ gram ɔha ne dunum.
If the person is from five years old even to twenty years old, then your valuation shall be for a male twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels.
6 Abarimaa a wadi ɔsram kosi mfe anum no wobetua dwetɛ gram 60; na ɔbabea nso wɔatua dwetɛ gram 35.
If the person is from a month old even to five years old, then your valuation shall be for a male five shekels of silver, and for a female your valuation shall be three shekels of silver.
7 Ɔbarima a wadi boro mfe aduosia no wobetua dwetɛ gram ɔha aduoson; na ɔbea nso wɔatua dwetɛ gram ɔha ne dunum.
If the person is from sixty years old and upward; if it is a male, then your valuation shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels.
8 Na sɛ obi yɛ ohiani a ɔrentumi ntua saa sika yi a, ɔde saa onipa no bɛba ɔsɔfo anim, na ɔsɔfo no akyerɛ no sika a obetumi atua.
But if he is poorer than your valuation, then he shall be set before the priest, and the priest shall value him; according to the ability of him who vowed shall the priest value him.
9 “‘Sɛ ɔde aboa hyɛ bɔ sɛ afɔrebɔde a ɛfata ma Awurade a, saa aboa no a ɔde ama Awurade no bɛyɛ kronkron.
"'If it is an animal, of which men offer an offering to YHWH, all that any man gives of such to YHWH becomes holy.
10 Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔsesa saa aboa no. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔde nea eye sesa nea enye anaa sɛ ɔde nea enye sesa nea eye. Sɛ ɛba sɛ wɔyɛ saa nsesae yi a, wɔbɛfa no sɛ mmoa abien no nyinaa ho tew.
He shall not alter it, nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good: and if he shall at all change animal for animal, then both it and that for which it is changed shall be holy.
11 Sɛ aboa a ɔde rema Awurade no ho ntew na ɛmfata sɛ wɔde yɛ afɔrebɔde ma Awurade a, ɛsɛ sɛ ne wura no de brɛ ɔsɔfo,
If it is any unclean animal, of which they do not offer as an offering to YHWH, then he shall set the animal before the priest;
12 na wahwɛ sɛ aboa no di mu anaa sɛ onni mu, na wakyerɛ sika dodow a ɛsɛ sɛ otua de si aboa no anan.
and the priest shall value it, whether it is good or bad. As you the priest values it, so shall it be.
13 Sɛ aboa no yɛ nea ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde no bɔ afɔre nanso onipa a ɔde no reba no pɛ sɛ ɔsan gye nʼade a, obetua sika ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka bo a ɔsɔfo no betwa ama no sɛ ontua no ho.
But if he will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of it to its valuation.
14 “‘Sɛ obi de ne fi ma Awurade na sɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɔsan gye a, ɔsɔfo no bɛsese ahu sɛ eye anaasɛ enye. Bo biara a ɔsɔfo no bɛkyerɛ no na ɛsɛ sɛ wotua.
"'When a man dedicates his house to be holy to YHWH, then the priest shall evaluate it, whether it is good or bad: as the priest shall evaluate it, so shall it stand.
15 Sɛ nea ɔde ofi no mae no pɛ sɛ ɔsan gye a ɛsɛ sɛ otua ne bo no nkyɛmu ɔha mu aduonu ka ho na ama ofi no asan abɛyɛ ne de.
If he who dedicates it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall be his.
16 “‘Sɛ ɔbarima bi pɛ sɛ ɔde nʼabusua asase fa bi bɔ afɔre ma Awurade a, wobegyina aba kɛntɛnma dodow a ebehia sɛ wobedua wɔ so no so atwa asase no bo; aba kɛntɛnma biara bo yɛ dwetɛ gram ahannum ne aduoson.
"'If a man dedicates to YHWH part of the field of his possession, then your valuation shall be according to the seed for it: the sowing of a homer of barley shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.
17 Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ mu no, sɛ obi de nʼafuw kyɛ a, ne bo no rensesa.
If he dedicates his field from the Year of Jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand.
18 Na sɛ ɔde asase no ma wɔ Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no akyi a, ɔsɔfo no begyina mfe a aka ansa na Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ a edi so no so asese ne bo no, na wobetumi atew so.
But if he dedicates his field after the Jubilee, then the priest shall reckon to him the money according to the years that remain to the Year of Jubilee; and an abatement shall be made from your valuation.
19 Na sɛ ɔbarima no pɛ sɛ ogye nʼasase a, ɔsɔfo no bo a ɔbɛbɔ no, obetua ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka ho ansa na asase no abɛyɛ ne dea bio.
If he who dedicated the field will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall remain his.
20 Na sɛ nso ɔyɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔmpɛ sɛ ogye asase no bio, anaasɛ sɛ watɔn asase no ama obi foforo a, ɛno de, wɔrentumi nnye bio.
If he will not redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more;
21 Sɛ wɔdan asase no ma wɔ Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no mu a, ɛbɛyɛ asase kronkron. Wɔde bɛto hɔ ama Awurade. Ɛbɛyɛ asɔfo no agyapade.
but the field, when it goes out in the Jubilee, shall be holy to YHWH, as a field devoted; it shall be owned by the priests.
22 “‘Sɛ obi de asase a watɔ ma Awurade, na sɛ asase no nyɛ nʼabusua asase a,
"'If he dedicates to YHWH a field which he has bought, which is not of the field of his possession,
23 ɔsɔfo no begyina mfe a aka ama wɔadi Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no so asese ne bo. Ɛsɛ sɛ onipa ko no tua ka no da no ara, na ɛyɛ afɔrebɔde kronkron ma Awurade.
then the priest shall reckon to him the worth of your valuation up to the Year of Jubilee; and he shall give your valuation on that day, as a holy thing to YHWH.
24 Mfirihyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no du so a, asase no bɛsan akɔ nea ɔtɔnee no anaasɛ nea na ɔyɛ asase no wura no nkyɛn.
In the Year of Jubilee the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land belongs.
25 Wɔbɛsese ho ka no nyinaa wɔ nnwetɛbona a wogye wɔ hyiadan mu no ho, a ɛyɛ gram dubaako.
All your valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs to the shekel.
26 “‘Ɛnsɛ sɛ obiara de aboa bi abakan ma Awurade, efisɛ abakan biara, sɛ ɔyɛ nantwi anaa oguan no, yɛ Awurade de dedaw.
"'Only the firstborn among animals, which is made a firstborn to YHWH, no man may dedicate it; whether an ox or sheep, it is YHWH's.
27 Sɛ ɔyɛ mmoa a wɔn ho ntew no bi a, onipa no betumi atua ne bo no, na ɔde ɛbo no ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka ho. Sɛ onipa no antɔ bio de a, wɔbɛtɔn aboa no sɛnea ne bo te.
If it is an unclean animal, then he shall buy it back according to your valuation, and shall add to it the fifth part of it: or if it isn't redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your valuation.
28 “‘Ade biara a wɔde ama Awurade no, sɛ ɛyɛ nnipa, mmoa anaa abusuasase no, ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔtɔn anaa wɔsan gye, efisɛ biribiara a ɛte saa no yɛ kronkron ma Awurade.
"'Notwithstanding, no devoted thing, that a man shall devote to YHWH of all that he has, whether of man or animal, or of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy to YHWH.
29 “‘Onipa biara a Awurade ayi no ama ɔsɛe no, wɔmmfa biribi ntua ne ti ka. Ɛsɛ sɛ wokum no.
"'No one devoted, who shall be devoted from among men, shall be ransomed; he shall surely be put to death.
30 “‘Asase no so nnɔbae nkyɛmu du mu baako, sɛ ɛyɛ aburow anaa aduaba no yɛ Awurade dea. Ɛyɛ kronkron.
"'All the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the trees, is YHWH's. It is holy to YHWH.
31 Sɛ obi pɛ sɛ ɔsan tɔ saa aduaba anaa aburow no a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ne bo nkyɛmu anum mu baako ka ho.
If a man redeems anything of his tithe, he shall add a fifth part to it.
32 Anantwi ne nguan no ntotoso du du nyinaa, aboa biara a ɔto so du a ɔfa oguanhwɛfo nsam no yɛ kronkron ma Awurade.
All the tithe of the herds or the flocks, whatever passes under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to YHWH.
33 Aboa a ɔto so du a wɔde bɛma Awurade no, wɔnnhwɛ sɛ oye anaa onye, na wɔmmfa biribiara nsi nʼanan mu, efisɛ sɛ wɔde biribiara si anan mu a, ne nyinaa bɛyɛ kronkron, a obiara rentumi nnye bio.’”
He shall not search whether it is good or bad, neither shall he change it: and if he changes it at all, then both it and that for which it is changed shall be holy. It shall not be redeemed.'"
34 Eyinom ne ahyɛde a Awurade de maa Mose wɔ Sinai Bepɔw so sɛ ɔnka nkyerɛ Israelfo no.
These are the commandments which YHWH commanded Moses for the children of Israel on Mount Sinai.
