3 Mose 12

1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ ɔnhyɛ Israelfoɔ mmara sɛ,

And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

2 “Sɛ ɔbaa bi wo ɔbabarima a, ne ho nnte nnanson, te sɛ deɛ ɔkɔ afikyire a ne ho nteɛ no ara.

Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say, When a woman hath brought forth seede, and borne a manchilde, shee shalbe vncleane seuen dayes, like as she is vncleane when she is put apart for her disease.

3 Ne nnawɔtwe so no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔtwa abarimaa no twetia.

(And in the eight day, the foreskin of the childes flesh shalbe circumcised)

4 Na nnafua aduasa mmiɛnsa a ɛda nʼanim a ɔde rete ne ho no, ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔsɔ biribiara a ɛyɛ kronkron mu na ɔnni ho kwan sɛ ɔkɔ hyiadan mu nso.

And she shall continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirtie dayes: she shall touch no halowed thing, nor come into the Sanctuarie, vntil the time of her purifying be out.

5 Sɛ ɔbaa bi wo ɔbabaa a, ne ho nnte nnawɔtwe mmienu, te sɛ deɛ ɔkɔ afikyire a ne ho nteɛ no ara. Afei ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtwɛn nnafua aduosia nsia ma ne ho twa.

But if she beare a mayde childe, then shee shalbe vncleane two weekes, as when shee hath her disease: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying three score and sixe dayes.

6 “Sɛ saa ahoteɛ nna yi twam a (mmara a ɛdi so yi ka ɔbaa a wawo abarimaa anaa abaayewa ho asɛm), ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde odwammaa a wadi afe bɛbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ na ɔde aborɔnoma anaa aturukuku ba bɛbɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde wɔn kɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ano kɔma ɔsɔfoɔ no,

Nowe when the dayes of her purifying are out, (whether it be for a sonne or for a daughter) shee shall bring to the Priest a lambe of one yeere olde for a burnt offering, and a yong pigeon or a turtle doue for a sinne offring, vnto the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation,

7 na ɔsɔfoɔ no de ama Awurade de ayɛ mpatadeɛ ama ɛna no; ɛba saa a, ne ho te bio wɔ nʼawoɔ mu mogyaguo ho. “Yei ne awoɔ akyi ahyɛdeɛ.

Who shall offer it before the Lord, and make an atonement for her: so she shalbe purged of the issue of her blood this is the law for her that hath borne a male or female.

8 Na sɛ ɔyɛ ohiani a ɔrennya odwammaa no a, ɛnneɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde mmorɔnoma mmienu anaa nturukuku mma mmienu ba. Wɔde baako bɛbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ na wɔde baako abɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ. Ɔsɔfoɔ no de yeinom bɛyɛ mpatadeɛ ama no, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a ne ho bɛte bio.”

But if she bee not able to bring a lambe, she shall bring two turtles, or two yong pigeons: the one for a burnt offring, and the other for a sinne offring: and the Priest shall make an atonement for her: so she shall be cleane.
