3 Mose 24
1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ na wɔmmrɛ wo ngo kronn na fa sɔ kanea a ɛnnum da,
Command the children of Israel that they bring unto thee pure beaten olive oil for the light, to light the lamp continually.
3 adanseɛ ntwamutam no akyi wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu, Aaron bɛhwɛ nkanea a ɛwɔ Awurade anim no so, firi anwummerɛ kɔsi anɔpa biara. Ɛyɛ daa ahyɛdeɛ ma mo awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ nyinaa.
Outside the veil of the testimony, in the tent of meeting, shall Aaron dress it from evening to morning before Jehovah continually: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your generations.
4 Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhwɛ nkanea a ɛsisi sikakɔkɔɔ kaneadua so wɔ Awurade anim no so ɛberɛ biara.
Upon the pure candlestick shall he arrange the lamps before Jehovah continually.
5 “Momfa asikyiresiam muhumuhu nto burodo amuamua dumienu. Momfa esiam lita ɛnan ne fa nto burodo mua biara.
And thou shalt take fine wheaten flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof; each cake shall be of two tenths.
6 Monhyehyɛ no akyerɛpɛn mmienu, a nsia biara wɔ kyerɛpɛn baako so wɔ sikakɔkɔɔ amapa ɛpono so wɔ Awurade anim.
And thou shalt set them in two rows, six in a row, upon the pure table before Jehovah.
7 Mode aduhwam pa bɛgu kyerɛpɛn biara ho de asi burodo no anan mu ayɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔhye wɔ ogya so ma Awurade.
And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row; and it shall be a bread of remembrance, an offering by fire to Jehovah.
8 Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde saa burodo yi sisi Awurade anim Homeda biara; ɛbɛyɛ apam a ɛnni awieeɛ ama Israelfoɔ.
Every sabbath day he shall arrange it before Jehovah continually, on the part of the children of Israel: [it is] an everlasting covenant.
9 Burodo yi yɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima dea, na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔdi wɔ kronkronbea hɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ kronkron pa ara wɔ wɔn kyɛfa a ɛwɔ afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔhye ma Awurade no mu.”
And it shall be Aaron's and his sons'; and they shall eat it in a holy place; for it is most holy unto him of Jehovah's offerings by fire: [it is] an everlasting statute.
10 Ɛda bi aberanteɛ bi a ne maame yɛ Israelni na nʼagya nso yɛ Misraimni ne Israelfoɔ no baako nyaa ntɔkwa wɔ wɔn atenaeɛ.
And the son of an Israelitish woman — but withal the son of an Egyptian, — went out among the children of Israel; and this son of the Israelitess and a man of Israel strove together in the camp;
11 Ntɔkwa no mu no, Israelni babarima no domee Onyankopɔn enti wɔde no baa Mose nkyɛn sɛ wɔmmu no atɛn. Na ne maame din de Selomit a ɔyɛ Dibri a ɔfiri Dan abusua mu.
and the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed the Name, and cursed; and they brought him to Moses. And his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
12 Wɔde no too afiase twɛn Awurade akwankyerɛ.
And they confined him, that they might decide at the mouth of Jehovah.
13 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
14 “Fa obusuyɛni no firi atenaeɛ ha kɔ na kɔka kyerɛ wɔn a wɔtee asɛm a ɔkaeɛ no nyinaa na wɔmfa wɔn nsa ngu nʼapampam; afei nnipa no nyinaa nsi no aboɔ nku no.
Lead the reviler outside the camp; and all that heard [him] shall lay their hands upon his head, and the whole assembly shall stone him.
15 Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, ‘Obiara a ɔbɛdome Onyankopɔn no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔnya ho asotwe:
And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Every one when he revileth his God shall bear his sin.
16 obiara a ɔgu Awurade din ho fi no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɛdɔm no nyinaa si no aboɔ. Ɔhɔhoɔ anaa Israelni biara a ɔbɛgu Awurade din ho fi no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no.
And he that blasphemeth the name of Jehovah shall certainly be put to death; all the assembly shall certainly stone him; as well the stranger as he that is home-born, when he blasphemeth the Name, shall be put to death.
17 “‘Obiara a ɔkum ne yɔnko onipa no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no.
And if any one smiteth any man mortally, he shall certainly be put to death.
18 Obiara a ɔkum aboa bi a ɛnyɛ ne dea no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ ananmu.
And he that smiteth a beast mortally shall make it good, life for life.
19 Sɛ obi pira ne yɔnko a, ɔyɔnko no nso bɛpira no bi saa ara.
And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbour, as he hath done, so shall it be done to him;
20 Dompe mu bu nsi dompe mu bu ananmu; ani nsi ani ananmu; ɛse nsi ɛse ananmu. Sɛdeɛ obi pira ɔfoforɔ no, saa ara na wɔmpira ɔno nso.
breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him.
21 Obiara a ɔbɛkum aboa bi no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ anan mu; nanso sɛ obi kum onipa a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no bi.
He that smiteth a beast [mortally] shall make it good; and he that smiteth a man [mortally] shall be put to death.
22 Mmara korɔ no ara wɔ hɔ ma ɔhɔhoɔ ne kuromani. Mene Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn.’”
Ye shall have one law: as the stranger, so the home-born; for I am Jehovah your God.
23 Enti Mose kasa kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ no, na wɔyii obusuyɛni no firii atenaeɛ hɔ kɔsii no aboɔ. Israelfoɔ no yɛɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and they led the reviler outside the camp and stoned him with stones. And the children of Israel did as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
