3 Mose 7

1 “‘Amanne a ɛfa afɔdi afɔrebɔ a ɛyɛ kronkron ho no ni:

And this, is the law of the guilt-bearer, —most holy, it is!

2 Wobekum aboa a wɔde no rebɔ afɔdi afɔre no wɔ beae a wokum aboa a wɔde no bɔ ɔhyew afɔre no na wɔde ne mogya no apete afɔremuka no ho ahyia.

In the place where they slay the ascending-sacrifice, shall they slay the guilt-bearer; and, the blood thereof, shall one dash against the altar, round about;

3 Ɔsɔfo no de aboa no mu srade nyinaa, ne dua,

and, as for all the fat thereof, one shall bring near therefrom, —the fat-tail, and the fat that covereth the inwards;

4 nʼasaabo abien ne ne sisia srade ne ne bɔnwoma kotoku no nyinaa begu nkyɛn de abɔ saa afɔre no.

and the two kidneys, with the fat that is upon them, which is upon the loins, —and the caul upon the liver, up to the kidneys, shall he remove it.

5 Ɔsɔfo no bɛhyew no afɔremuka no so sɛ aduan afɔrebɔ a wɔde rema Awurade. Ɛyɛ afɔdi afɔre.

And the priest shall make a perfume with them at the altar, an altar-flame unto Yahweh—a guilt-bearer, it is,

6 Ɔbarima a ɔfra asɔfo abusua mu no mu tumi we nam no bi. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔwe wɔ beae a ɛhɔ yɛ kronkron, efisɛ ɛyɛ afɔrebɔde a ɛho tew yiye.

Any male among the priests, may eat thereof, —in a holy place, shall it be eaten, most holy, it is.

7 “‘Amanne koro no ara na wɔbɛfa so abɔ bɔne afɔre ne afɔdi afɔre no. Ɛyɛ ɔsɔfo a ɔyɛɛ mpata maa wɔn no de.

As the sin-bearer, so the guilt-bearer, —one law, for them, —the priest who maketh a propitiatory-covering, therewith, —to him, shall it belong,

8 Ɔsɔfo a odii ɔhyew afɔrebɔ no ho dwuma no betumi afa aboa no ho nwoma no.

And, as for the priest who bringeth near the ascending-sacrifice of any man, the skin of the ascending-sacrifice which he hath brought near, to the priest himself, shall it belong.

9 Sɛ asɔfo a wɔbɔ atoko ho afɔre ma Awurade no wie saa afɔrebɔ no a, wɔde atoko no nkae bɛma wɔn. Sɛ afɔrebɔde no, wɔto o, wɔkyew o, wɔnoa o, amanne koro no ara ase na ɛhyɛ.

And as for any meal-offering that may be baked in an oven, or anything that hath been prepared in a boiler or on a girdle, to the priest that bringeth it near—to him, shall it belong,

10 Atoko afɔrebɔ biara a aka no, sɛ wɔde ngo fra anaa wɔamfa ngo amfra a, ɛyɛ Aaron mmabarima nyinaa dea.

And, as for any meal-offering overflowed with oil or dry, —to all the sons of Aaron, shall it belong, to one as much as to another.

11 “‘Amanne a ɛfa asomdwoe afɔre sononko a wɔbɔ ma Awurade no ho no ni:

And, this, is the law of the peace-offering which one may bring near unto Yahweh.

12 “‘Sɛ ɛyɛ asomdwoe afɔre a, wɔmfa brodo a mmɔkaw nni mu a wɔde ngo afra nka ho. Saa ara na wɔmfa brodo ntrantraa bi a wɔde ngo agu so ne asikresiam mfrafrae a wɔde afra ngo nka saa afɔrebɔde no ho.

If, for thanksgiving, he bring it near, then shall he bring near, with the thanksgiving sacrifice perforated cakes unleavened, overflowed with oil, and wafers unleavened anointed with oil, —and of fine flour moistened, perforated cakes overflowed with oil.

13 Wɔmfa brodo a emu piw a wɔde mmɔkaw afra nka saa aseda asomdwoe afɔre yi ho.

With perforated cakes of leavened bread, shall he bring near his oblation, with his peace-offering of thanksgiving,

14 Wɔde saa afɔrebɔde yi bi begyina afɔremuka no anim na wɔahim wɔ afɔremuka no anim akɔ fa aba fa de akyerɛ sɛ wɔde ama Awurade. Afei, wɔbɛdan afɔrebɔde no ama ɔsɔfo a ɔpete aboa a wɔde no bɛbɔ afɔre no mogya a ɔboa dwumadi no.

Then shall he bring near therefrom one of each oblation, a heave-offering unto Yahweh, —to the priest who dasheth [against the altar] the blood of the peace-offering—to him, shall it belong.

15 Sɛ wɔde aboa no bɔ Awurade afɔre de ma no sɛ asomdwoe afɔrebɔ de kyerɛ sɛ ɛyɛ anisɔ ne asedade a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔwe ne nam da no ara. Ɛnsɛ sɛ bi ka ma ade kye so.

But, as for the flesh of his peace-offering of thanksgiving, on the day of bringing it near, shall it be eaten, —he shall not leave thereof until morning,

16 “‘Na sɛ obi de afɔrebɔde bi ba a ɛnyɛ asomdwoe afɔre na mmom, sɛ ɛyɛ bɔhyɛ anaa efi ne koma mu na ɔde rebrɛ Awurade de a, nea ɛbɛka biara wɔ afɔrebɔ no akyi no, sɛ ade kye so a, wotumi we.

But, if, a vow or a freewill offering, be his sacrifice of oblation, in the day he bringeth near his sacrifice, shall it be eaten, and on the morrow, then may the remainder thereof, be eaten;

17 Afɔrebɔ nam biara a ebedi nnansa no de, wɔnhyew.

but as for the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice, on the third day—in fire, shall it be consumed.

18 Sɛ obi we nea adi nnansa no bi a, Awurade rennye afɔrebɔde no; na ɛrenni mu sɛ afɔrebɔde, na onipa a ɔde bae sɛ wɔmfa mmɔ saa afɔre no rennya so mfaso biara. Ɔsɔfo a ɔbɛwe no nso bedi ho fɔ, efisɛ ɛyɛ akyiwade ma Awurade; na onipa a ɔbɛwe saa nam no, ɛsɛ sɛ oyi ne ho ano wɔ saa bɔne no ho.

And, if any of the flesh of his peace-offering, be at all eaten, on the third day, he that brought it near [shall not be accepted] it shall not be reckoned to him, unclean, shall it be, —and the person who shall eat thereof, shall bear his iniquity.

19 “‘Nam biara a ɛka biribi a wɔntew ho no, wɔnnwe; wɔnhyew. Nam biara a aka de, obiara a ne ho tew wɔ ho kwan sɛ ɔwe.

And, the flesh that toucheth anything unclean, shall not be eaten, in fire, shall it be consumed, —but, as for the [other] flesh, any one who is clean, may eat flesh.

20 Ɔsɔfo biara a ne ho ntew na obedi asomdwoe afɔre no bi no, wobetwa no asu, efisɛ wagu ade kronkron ho fi.

But as for the person who shall eat flesh from the peace-offering, which pertaineth unto Yahweh, while his uncleanness is on him, then shall that person be cut off from among his kinsfolk.

21 Obiara a ɔde ne nsa bɛka biribi a ɛho ntew no, sɛ ɛyɛ onipa anaa aboa na oguu ho fi na obedii asomdwoe afɔrebɔde no bi no, wobetwa no asu, efisɛ wagu ade kronkron ho fi.’”

Yea, as for, any person, whensoever he shall touch anything unclean—the uncleanness of man or an unclean beast, or any unclean disgusting thing, —and then eateth of the flesh of a peace-offering that pertaineth unto Yahweh, then shall that person be cut off from among his kinsfolk.

22 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,

And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying—

23 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se wonnni srade, sɛ efi anantwi, nguan anaa mmirekyi mu.

Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, —No fat, of ox or sheep or goat, shall ye eat:

24 Sɛ ɔyare bi bɔ aboa bi na owu anaasɛ mmoa bɔne bi taataa aboa foforo bi kum no a, wonnni ne srade na mmom, wɔmfa nyɛ ade foforo.

and though the fat of what dieth of itself and the fat of that which has been torn in pieces, may be used for any other service, yet shall ye, in nowise eat it.

25 Obiara a obedi srade a efi afɔrebɔde a wɔbɔ no ogya so de ma Awurade no, ɛsɛ sɛ wotwa no asu.

Nay, as touching any one who eateth the fat of any beast, wherefrom he might bring near an altar-flame unto Yahweh, then shall the person that eateth be cut off from among his kinsfolk.

26 Munnni mogya—sɛ ɛyɛ nnomaa anaa ntɔteboa.

And no manner of blood, shall ye eat, in any of your dwellings, —whether of bird or of beast:

27 Obiara a ɔbɛyɛ saa no, ɛsɛ sɛ wotwa no asu.”

as touching any person who eateth any manner of blood, then shall that person be cut off from among his kinsfolk.

28 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,

And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying,

29 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfo se obiara a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔbɔ Awurade asomdwoe afɔre no, ɔno ara nkita mmra.

Speak unto the sons of Israel saying, —He that offereth his peace-offering unto Yahweh, shall bring in his own oblation unto Yahweh out of his peace-offering:

30 Ɔmfa afɔrebɔde a ɛyɛ srade ne ne yan a wobehim wɔ afɔremuka no anim de ama Awurade no mmra.

his own hands shall bring in the altar-flames of Yahweh, —the fat with the breast, he shall bring it in, the breast, to wave it as a wave-offering before Yahweh.

31 Afei, ɔsɔfo no bɛhyew srade no wɔ afɔremuka no so na ne yan no de, Aaron ne ne mmabarima bɛfa.

Then shall the priest make a perfume with the fat at the altar, —and the breast shall be for Aaron and for his sons.

32 Ɛsɛ sɛ mode mo asomdwoe afɔrebɔde no srɛ nifa no ma ɔsɔfo no sɛ mo fam de.

But, the right shoulder, shall ye give as a heave-offering, unto the priest, —from among your peace-offerings

33 Na Aaron mmabarima no mu nea ɔde mogya ne srade a efi afɔrebɔde no mu no bɛba afɔremuka no so no na ɔbɛfa srɛ nifa no.

he that bringeth near the blood of the peace-offerings and the fat from among the sons of Aaron, to him, shall belong the right shoulder for a portion.

34 Mahyɛ sɛ wɔmfa ne yan no ne ne srɛ no mma sɛ akyɛde a efi Israelfo nkyɛn a wɔde rebrɛ Aaron mmabarima. Bere biara, wɔmfa saa afɔrebɔde no kyɛfa yi no mma Aaron ne ne mmabarima.”

For, the wave-breast and the heave-shoulder, have I taken of the sons of Israel, out of their peace-offerings, —and have given them unto Aaron the priest and unto his sons as an age-abiding statute, from the sons of Israel.

35 Wɔn akatua ne no: Ɔhyew afɔrebɔ no, wɔde bɛto nkyɛn na wɔde ama wɔn a wɔayi wɔn sɛ Awurade asɔfo a ɛyɛ Aaron ne ne mmabarima no.

This, is what pertaineth to the anointing of Aaron and to the anointing of his sons out of the altar-flames of Yahweh, —[granted] in the day when he brought them near, to minister as priests unto Yahweh:

36 Efisɛ da a Awurade sraa wɔn ngo no, ɔhyɛɛ sɛ Israelfo mfa saa kyɛfa no mma wɔn; ɛyɛ wɔn kyɛfa daa daa wɔ awo ntoatoaso ɛbɛba nyinaa mu.

which Yahweh commanded to give them in the day when he anointed them, from among the sons of Israel, —an age-abiding statute to their generations.

37 Eyinom ne amanne a ɛfa ɔhyew afɔrebɔ, atoko afɔrebɔ, bɔne afɔrebɔ, afɔdi afɔrebɔ, ahotew afɔrebɔ ne asomdwoe afɔrebɔ ho.

This is the law—for the ascending-sacrifice, for the meal-offering, and for the sin-bearer, and for the guilt-bearer, —and for the installation-offerings, and for the peace-offering:

38 Awurade de saa mmara yi maa Mose wɔ Sinai Bepɔw so sɛ ɔno nso mfa mma Israelfo no, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wobehu ɔkwan a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔfa so bɔ wɔn afɔre ahorow no de ma Onyankopɔn wɔ Sinai sare so hɔ.

which Yahweh commanded Moses in Mount Sinai, —in the day when he commanded the sons of Israel to bring near their oblations unto Yahweh in the desert of Sinai.
