3 Mose 24
1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
2 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ na wɔmmrɛ wo ngo kronn na fa sɔ kanea a ɛnnum da,
“Command the sons of Israel, and they bring pure oil of beaten olive to you for the lamp, to cause a light to go up 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.
Aaron arranges it at the outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, from evening until morning before YHWH continually—a continuous statute throughout your generations;
4 Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhwɛ nkanea a ɛsisi sikakɔkɔɔ kaneadua so wɔ Awurade anim no so ɛberɛ biara.
he arranges the lights on the pure lampstand before YHWH continually.
5 “Momfa asikyiresiam muhumuhu nto burodo amuamua dumienu. Momfa esiam lita ɛnan ne fa nto burodo mua biara.
And you have taken flour, and have baked twelve cakes with it, two-tenth parts are in one cake,
6 Monhyehyɛ no akyerɛpɛn mmienu, a nsia biara wɔ kyerɛpɛn baako so wɔ sikakɔkɔɔ amapa ɛpono so wɔ Awurade anim.
and you have set them [in] two rows (six in the row) on the pure table before YHWH,
7 Mode aduhwam pa bɛgu kyerɛpɛn biara ho de asi burodo no anan mu ayɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔhye wɔ ogya so ma Awurade.
and you have put pure frankincense on the row, and it has been with the bread for a memorial, a fire-offering to YHWH.
8 Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde saa burodo yi sisi Awurade anim Homeda biara; ɛbɛyɛ apam a ɛnni awieeɛ ama Israelfoɔ.
On each Sabbath day he arranges it before YHWH continually, from the sons of Israel—a perpetual 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 has been for Aaron and for his sons, and they have eaten it in the holy place, for it [is] most holy to him, from the fire-offerings of YHWH—a continuous 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 a son of an Israeli woman goes out (and he [is] son of an Egyptian man) in the midst of the sons of Israel, and the son of the Israeli woman and a man of Israel strive 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 son of the Israeli woman execrates the Name and reviles; and they bring him to Moses; and his mother’s name [is] Shelomith daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan;
12 Wɔde no too afiase twɛn Awurade akwankyerɛ.
and he causes him to rest in confinement —to explain to them by the mouth of YHWH.
13 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And YHWH speaks 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.
“Bring out the reviler to the outside of the camp; and all those hearing have laid their hands on his head, and all the congregation has stoned him.
15 Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, ‘Obiara a ɔbɛdome Onyankopɔn no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔnya ho asotwe:
And you speak to the sons of Israel, saying, When any man reviles his God—then he has borne 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 who is execrating the Name of YHWH is certainly put to death; all the congregation certainly casts stones at him; as a sojourner so a native, in his execrating the Name, he is put to death.
17 “‘Obiara a ɔkum ne yɔnko onipa no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no.
And when a man strikes any soul of man, he is certainly put to death.
18 Obiara a ɔkum aboa bi a ɛnyɛ ne dea no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ ananmu.
And he who strikes a beast repays it, body for body.
19 Sɛ obi pira ne yɔnko a, ɔyɔnko no nso bɛpira no bi saa ara.
And when a man puts a blemish in his fellow, as he has done so it is 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 puts a blemish in a man so it is done in him.
21 Obiara a ɔbɛkum aboa bi no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ anan mu; nanso sɛ obi kum onipa a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no bi.
And he who strikes a beast repays it, and he who strikes [the life of] man is put to death.
22 Mmara korɔ no ara wɔ hɔ ma ɔhɔhoɔ ne kuromani. Mene Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn.’”
One judgment is for you; as a sojourner so is a native; for I [am] your God YHWH.”
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 speaks to the sons of Israel, and they bring out the reviler to the outside of the camp, and stone him [with] stone; and the sons of Israel have done as YHWH has commanded Moses.
