3 Mose 15

1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron sɛ,

And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,

2 “Monhyɛ saa mmara yi mma Israelfoɔ: ‘Ɔbarima biara a ne ho bɛsene aguo no, ne ho agu fi.

Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, Whatever man shall have an issue out of his body, his issue is unclean.

3 Ɛberɛ a ne ho resene guo ne ɛberɛ a agyae no nyinaa ma ne ho gu fi.

And this [is] the law of his uncleanness; whoever has a gonorrhoea out of his body, this is his uncleanness in him by reason of the issue, by which, his body is affected through the issue: all the days of the issue of his body, by which his body is affected through the issue, there is his uncleanness.

4 “‘Mpa a ɔbɛda so ne biribiara a ɔbɛtena so nso ho gu fi;

Every bed on which he that has the issue shall happen to lie, is unclean; and every seat on which he that has the issue may happen to sit, shall be unclean.

5 enti obiara a ɔde ne ho ka ɔbarima no mpa ho gu fi kɔsi anwummerɛ, enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsi ne ntoma na ɔdware.

And the man who shall touch his bed, shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean till evening.

6 Obiara a ɔbɛtena akonnwa a ɔbarima no atena so so ho gu fi kɔsi anwummerɛ, enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsi ne ntoma na ɔdware.

And whoever sits on the seat on which he that has the issue may have sat, shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean until evening.

7 “‘Saa mmara yi ka obiara a ɔde ne ho bɛka ɔbarima no.

And he that touches the skin of him that has the issue, shall wash his garments and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean till evening.

8 “‘Obiara a ɔbarima no bɛte ntasuo agu ne so no ho nte kɔsi anwummerɛ enti ɛsɛ sɛ onii no si ne ntoma na ɔdware.

And if he that has the issue should spit upon one that is clean, [that person] shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.

9 “‘Ɔpɔnkɔ adwa biara a ɔbɛtena so no ho agu fi.

And every ass's saddle, on which the man with the issue shall have mounted, shall be unclean till evening.

10 Obiara a ne ho bɛka biribiara a aka saa onipa no ase no ho nte kɔsi anwummerɛ, enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsi ne ntoma na ɔdware.

And every one that touches whatever shall have been under him shall be unclean until evening; and he that takes them up shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean until evening.

11 “‘Sɛ onipa a ne ho nte no rekɔsɔ obi mu na wanhohoro ne nsa ansa a, ɛsɛ sɛ onipa ko no si ne ntoma, dware ne ho, ɛfiri sɛ, ne ho nte kɔsi anwummerɛ.

And whoever he that has the issue shall touch, if he have not rinsed his hands in water, he shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and shall be unclean until evening.

12 “‘Sɛ saa onipa no sɔ ayowaa biara mu a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔbɔ no na sɛ ɛyɛ mukaase biribi a wɔde dua na asene deɛ a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde nsuo hohoro ho.

And the earthen vessel which he that has the issue shall happen to touch, shall be broken; and a wooden vessel shall be washed with water, and shall be clean.

13 “‘Sɛ nʼahosene no twa a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde nnanson firi ahodwira ho ahosiesie ase na ɔsi ne ntoma na ɔkɔdware wɔ asubɔnten mu.

and if he that has the issue should be cleansed of his issue, then shall he number to himself seven days for his purification; and he shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and shall be clean.

14 Ɛda a ɛtɔ so nwɔtwe no, ɔde nturukuku mmienu anaa mmorɔnoma mma mmienu bɛba Awurade anim wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ano na ɔde ama ɔsɔfoɔ no.

And on the eighth day he shall take to himself two turtledoves or two young pigeons, and he shall bring them before the Lord to the doors of the tabernacle of witness, and shall give them to the priest.

15 Ɔsɔfoɔ no de wɔn bɛbɔ afɔdeɛ a baako yɛ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ na baako no nso yɛ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ; na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛyɛ mpatadeɛ wɔ Awurade anim ama ɔbarima no, ɛnam nʼahosene no enti.

And the priest shall offer them one for a sin-offering, and the other for a whole burnt offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord for his issue.

16 “‘Sɛ ɔbarima biara ahobaa gu a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔdware ne ho nyinaa, ɛfiri sɛ, ne ho nso nte kɔsi anwummerɛ.

And the man whose seed of copulation shall happen to go forth from him, shall then wash his whole body, and shall be unclean until evening.

17 Ntoma anaa mpasotam biara a ahobaa no bi bɛgu mu no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsi, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛho nte kɔsi anwummerɛ.

And every garment, and every skin on which there shall be the seed of copulation shall both be washed with water, and be unclean until evening.

18 Sɛ ɔbarima fa ɔbaa a, wɔn nna no akyi, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔbaa no ne ɔbarima no nyinaa dware, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔn ho nte kɔsi anwummerɛ.

And a woman, if a man shall lie with her with seed of copulation—they shall both bathe themselves in water and shall be unclean until evening.

19 “‘Sɛ ɔbaa kɔ afikyire a, ne ho nte nnanson mu. Saa ɛberɛ no mu, obiara a ɔde ne ho bɛka no no nso ho nte kɔsi anwummerɛ.

And the woman whoever shall have an issue of blood, when her issue shall be in her body, shall be seven days in her separation; every one that touches her shall be unclean until evening.

20 “‘Biribiara a ɔbɛda so anaa ɔbɛtena so saa ɛberɛ no mu no nso ho agu fi.

And every thing whereon she shall lie in her separation, shall be unclean; and whatever she shall sit upon, shall be unclean.

And whoever shall touch her bed shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and shall be unclean until evening.

And whether it be while she is on her bed, or on a seat which she may happen to sit upon when he touches her, he shall be unclean till evening.

24 “‘Sɛ ɔbarima ne no da saa ɛberɛ yi mu a, ɔbarima no ho gu fi nnanson; na mpa biara a ɔbarima no bɛda so no nso ho gu fi.

And if any one shall lie with her, and her uncleanness be upon him, he shall be unclean seven days; and every bed on which he shall have lain shall be unclean.

25 “‘Sɛ ɛberɛ duru sɛ ɔfiri nanso mogya da so ba anaasɛ mogya ba ɛberɛ a ɛnsɛ mu wɔ bosome no mu a, mmara korɔ no ara na wɔde ka ho asɛm,

And if a woman have an issue of blood many days, not in the time of her separation; if the blood should also flow after her separation, all the days of the issue of her uncleanness [shall be] as the days of her separation: she shall be unclean.

26 na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, biribiara a ɔbɛda so saa ɛberɛ no ho agu fi te sɛ deɛ nʼafikyikɔ berɛ mu ɔtena biribi so a, ɛho gu fi no ara pɛ.

And every bed on which she shall lie all the days of her flux shall be to her as the bed of her separation, and every seat whereon she shall sit shall be unclean according to the uncleanness of her separation.

27 Obiara a ɔde ne nsa bɛka ne mpa anaa biribiara a ɔtena so no ho agu fi a ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsi ne ntoma, sane dware, ɛfiri sɛ, ne ho nte kɔsi anwummerɛ.

Every one that touches it shall be unclean; and he shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and shall be unclean till evening.

28 “‘Nnanson akyi, sɛ afikyikɔ no twa a, na ɔnni efi mu bio.

But if she shall be cleansed from her flux, then she shall number to herself seven days, and afterwards she shall be esteemed clean.

29 Ɛda a ɛtɔ so nwɔtwe no, ɔde nturukuku mmienu anaa mmorɔnoma mma mmienu bɛkɔ akɔma ɔsɔfoɔ no wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no kwan ano

And on the eighth day she shall take two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, and shall bring them to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of witness.

30 na ɔsɔfoɔ no de baako abɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ na ɔde baako abɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ na ayɛ mpatadeɛ ama ɔbaa no wɔ Awurade anim wɔ nʼafikyikɔ no ho fi no ho.

And the priest shall offer one for a sin-offering, and the other for a whole burnt offering, and the priest shall make atonement for her before the Lord for her unclean flux.

31 “‘Saa ɛkwan yi so na sɛ Israelfoɔ no bi ho gu fi a, mobɛfa de ate wɔn ho anyɛ saa a, ɛsiane sɛ wɔagu mʼAhyiaeɛ Ntomadan a ɛsi wɔn mu no ho fi enti, wɔbɛwuwu.’”

And you shall cause the children of Israel to beware of their uncleannesses; so they shall not die for their uncleanness, in polluting my tabernacle that is among them.

32 Yeinom ne mmara a ɛwɔ hɔ ma ɔbarima a ne ho sene

This is the law of the man who has an issue, and if one discharge seed of copulation, so that he should be polluted by it.

33 ne ɔbaa a wakɔ afikyire ne obiara a ɔde ne ho ka ɔsakyimafoɔ wɔ ɛberɛ a ne ho nteɛ no mu no.

And [this is the law] for her that has the issue of blood in her separation, and as to the person who has an issue of seed, in his issue: [it is a law] for the male and the female, and for the man who shall have lain with her that is set apart.
