< 4 Mose 9 >
1 Ɔsram a edi kan no mu afe a ɛto so abien no mu a wɔafi Misraim no na Awurade kaa saa asɛm yi kyerɛɛ Mose bere a ɔne Israelfo wɔ Sinai sare no so no se,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after their departure from the land of Egypt, saying,
2 “Ma Israelfo no nni Twam Afahyɛ no wɔ ne bere ano.
Let the children of Israel also hold the passover at its set time;
3 Munni no wɔ ne bere ano, na mofa ne mmara akwan ahorow no nyinaa so nni wɔ ɔsram yi da a ɛto so dunan no anwummere.”
on the fourteenth day in this month between the two evenings, ye shall hold it at its set time; according to all the rites of it, and according to all the ordinances thereof shall ye hold it.
4 Enti Mose ka kyerɛɛ Israelfo no se wonni Twam Afahyɛ no,
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should hold the passover.
5 na wɔyɛɛ saa wɔ Sinai Nweatam no so wɔ ɔsram a edi kan no da a ɛto so dunan no anwummere. Na Israelfo no yɛɛ biribiara pɛpɛɛpɛ sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
And they held the passover in the first [month] on the fourteenth day of the month, between the two evenings, in the wilderness of Sinai: according to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.
6 Nanso na nnipa no bi fi ayi aba a esiane sɛ wɔde wɔn ho aka owufo nti na wɔn ho agu fi. Eyi nti wɔantumi anni Twam Afahyɛ no bi. Enti wɔbaa Mose ne Aaron nkyɛn da no ara
And there were men, who were unclean through the dead body of a man, and could not hold the passover on that day; and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day.
7 bɛka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Yɛde yɛn ho aka funu ama yɛn ho agu fi, nanso dɛn nti na yɛne Israelfo nyinaa rentumi mfa yɛn afɔrebɔde mmrɛ Awurade sɛnea nhyehyɛe no te no?”
And those men said to him, We are unclean by reason of the dead body of a man: why are we kept back, that we may not present the offering of Jehovah at its set time among the children of Israel?
8 Mose buaa wɔn se, “Montwɛn mma mimmisa sɛnea Awurade mmara no ka fa mo ho.”
And Moses said to them, Stay, and I will hear what Jehovah commands concerning you.
9 Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
10 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se, Obiara a obeso funu mu, sɛ ɔyɛ nnɛmma anaa ofi awo ntoatoaso a ɛreba no mu wɔ Twam Afahyɛ bere a ɛbɛma ne ho agu fi anaa ɔnam akwantu so nti wɔantumi amma no tumi di Awurade Twam Afahyɛ no,
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any one of you or of your generations be unclean by reason of a dead body or be on a journey afar off, yet he shall hold the passover to Jehovah.
11 nanso ɔsram a ɛto so abien no da a ɛto so dunan no anwummere na ɛsɛ sɛ wodi. Saa bere no na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔwe oguamma no a brodo a mmɔkaw nni mu ka ho a naban nweenwen ka ho.
In the second month, on the fourteenth day, between the two evenings, shall they hold it; with unleavened bread and bitter herbs shall they eat it.
12 Ɛnsɛ sɛ wogyaw bi ma ade kye so, anaa wɔbɔ ne dompe mu. Na ɛsɛ sɛ wodi Twam Afahyɛ no mmara no nyinaa so pɛpɛɛpɛ.
They shall leave none of it until the morning, nor break a bone thereof: according to every ordinance of the passover shall they hold it.
13 Nanso obiara a ne ho nguu fi anaa obi a ontuu kwan nanso wanni Twam Afahyɛ no wɔ ne bere ano no, ɛsɛ sɛ wotwa no asu afi Israelfo no mu wɔ afɔre a wamma ammɛbɔ amma Awurade bere a ɛsɛ mu no nti. Wɔbɛsoa wɔn afɔdi ho sodi.
But a man that is clean, and is not on a journey, and forbeareth to hold the passover, that soul shall be cut off from among his peoples; because he presented not the offering of Jehovah at its set time: that man shall bear his sin.
14 “Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhɔho a ɔfra mo mu no fa mmara koro no ara so di Awurade Twam Afahyɛ no. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhɔho ne okuroni nyinaa di mmara koro no so.”
And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and would hold the passover to Jehovah, according to the rite of the passover, and according to the ordinance thereof, so shall he do. Ye shall have one rite, both for the stranger and for him that is born in the land.
15 Da a wɔmaa Ahyiae Ntamadan no so sii hɔ no, omununkum kataa so. Anwummere no ara, omununkum no dan yɛɛ sɛ ogya na ɛyɛɛ saa ara anadwo mu no nyinaa de kosii adekyee.
And on the day that the tabernacle was set up, the cloud covered the tabernacle of the tent of testimony; and at even it was upon the tabernacle as the appearance of fire, until the morning.
16 Saa ara na ɛte bere biara, na edu anadwo a, mununkum no dan yɛ sɛ ogya.
So it was continually: the cloud covered it, and at night it was as the appearance of fire.
17 Omununkum no maa ne ho so no, Israelfo no dii akyi kosii baabiara a ɛkɔ kogyina ma wɔbɔɔ hɔ atenae.
And when the cloud rose from the tent, then the children of Israel journeyed; and at the place where the cloud stood still, there the children of Israel encamped.
18 Eyi kyerɛ sɛ, sɛ Awurade ka se wɔnkɔ a, wɔkɔ, na sɛ ɔka se wonnyina a, wogyina. Na sɛ Omununkum no gyina a, wɔn nso gyina mmere dodow a egyina hɔ no nyinaa.
According to the commandment of Jehovah the children of Israel journeyed, and according to the commandment of Jehovah they [remained] encamped; all the days that the cloud dwelt upon the tabernacle they encamped.
19 Sɛ egyina baabi kyɛ a, wɔn nso gyina hɔ kyɛ. Na sɛ egyina hɔ nna kakraa bi a, wɔn nso gyina hɔ nna kakraa bi saa ara, efisɛ saa na Awurade ahyɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ.
And when the cloud was long upon the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the charge of Jehovah, and journeyed not.
20 Ɛtɔ da bi a, omununkum no tena Ahyiae Ntamadan no so nna kakraa bi. Sɛ ɛba saa a, nnipa no nso tena nna kakraa bi. Na Awurade nhyɛ mu, wotu fii wɔn atenae.
And if it were so that the cloud was a few days upon the tabernacle, according to the commandment of Jehovah they encamped, and according to the commandment of Jehovah they journeyed.
21 Ɛtɔ da bi nso a, omununkum no tena anadwo na akɔ adekyee. Nanso sɛ ɛyɛ awia anaa anadwo na omununkum no ma ne ho so a, nnipa no tu fi atenae hɔ di akyi.
And if it were so that the cloud was there from the evening until the morning, and that the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed; or a day and a night, and the cloud was taken up, they journeyed;
22 Sɛ omununkum no ba Ahyiae Ntamadan no atifi na edi nnaanu, ɔsram anaa afe a, saa nna no ara so na Israelfo no hwɛ de tena hɔ. Nanso enya tu ara pɛ a, na wɔn nso atu.
or two days, or a month, or many days, when the cloud was long upon the tabernacle, dwelling upon it, the children of Israel [remained] encamped, and journeyed not; but when it was taken up, they journeyed.
23 Eyi kyerɛ sɛ, wɔn nsrabɔ ne wɔn akwantu nyinaa gyina Awurade mmara a ɔhyɛ ma wɔn no so; na biribiara a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ wɔnyɛ no, wɔyɛe.
At the commandment of Jehovah they encamped, and at the commandment of Jehovah they journeyed: they kept the charge of Jehovah according to the commandment of Jehovah through Moses.
