3 Mose 27

1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,

And YHWH spake unto Moses, saying,

2 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, ‘Sɛ onipa bi hyɛ bɔ sɛ ɔde obi bɛma Awurade a, na sɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɔtua sika mmom a,

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When a man shall make a singular vow, the persons shall be for YHWH by thy estimation.

3 ɔbɛtua dwetɛ gram ahanum ne aduɔson ama ɔbarima a wadi mfeɛ aduonu kɔsi mfeɛ aduosia,

And thy estimation shall be of the male from twenty years old even unto sixty years old, even thy estimation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.

4 sɛ ɔyɛ ɔbaa a wadi mfeɛ aduonu kɔsi aduosia a, wɔbɛtua dwetɛ gram ahasa ne aduanan,

And if it be a female, then thy estimation shall be thirty shekels.

5 abarimaa a wadi mfeɛ enum kɔsi aduonu no nso wɔbɛtua dwetɛ gram ahanu ne aduasa. Sɛ ɔyɛ ɔbaa a, wɔbɛtua dwetɛ gram ɔha ne dunum.

And if it be from five years old even unto twenty years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels.

6 Abarimaa a wadi bosome kɔsi mfeɛ enum no wɔbɛtua dwetɛ gram 60; na abaayewa nso wɔatua dwetɛ gram 35.

And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy estimation shall be three shekels of silver.

7 Ɔbarima a wadi boro mfeɛ aduosia no wɔbɛtua dwetɛ gram ɔha aduɔson; na ɔbaa nso wɔatua dwetɛ gram ɔha ne dunum.

And if it be from sixty years old and above; if it be a male, then thy estimation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels.

8 Na sɛ obi yɛ ohiani a ɔrentumi ntua saa sika yi a, ɔde saa onipa no bɛba ɔsɔfoɔ anim, na ɔsɔfoɔ no akyerɛ no sika a ɔbɛtumi atua.

But if he be poorer than thy estimation, then he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall value him; according to his ability that vowed shall the priest value him.

9 “‘Sɛ ɔde aboa hyɛ bɔ sɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛfata ma Awurade a, saa aboa no a ɔde ama Awurade no bɛyɛ kronkron.

And if it be a beast, whereof men bring an offering unto YHWH, all that any man giveth of such unto YHWH shall be holy.

10 Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔsesa saa aboa no. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔde deɛ ɛyɛ sesa deɛ ɛnyɛ anaa sɛ ɔde deɛ ɛnyɛ sesa deɛ ɛyɛ. Sɛ ɛba sɛ wɔyɛ saa nsesayɛ yi a, wɔbɛfa no sɛ mmoa mmienu no nyinaa ho te.

He shall not alter it, nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good: and if he shall at all change beast for beast, then it and the exchange thereof shall be holy.

11 Sɛ aboa a ɔde rema Awurade no ho nte na ɛmfata sɛ wɔde yɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ ma Awurade a, ɛsɛ sɛ ne wura no de brɛ ɔsɔfoɔ.

And if it be any unclean beast, of which they do not offer a sacrifice unto YHWH, then he shall present the beast before the priest:

12 Ɔno na ɔbɛhwɛ sɛ aboa no di mu anaa sɛ ɔnte saa, na wakyerɛ sika dodoɔ a ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtua de si aboa no anan.

And the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad: as thou valuest it, who art the priest, so shall it be.

13 Sɛ aboa no yɛ deɛ ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde no bɔ afɔdeɛ nanso onipa a ɔde no reba no pɛ sɛ ɔsane gye nʼadeɛ a, ɔbɛtua sika ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka ɛboɔ a ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛtwa ama no sɛ ɔntua no ho.

But if he will at all redeem it, then he shall add a fifth part thereof unto thy estimation.

14 “‘Sɛ obi de ne fie ma Awurade na sɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɔsane gye a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛsese ne boɔ a ɔnte so,

And when a man shall sanctify his house to be holy unto YHWH, then the priest shall estimate it, whether it be good or bad: as the priest shall estimate it, so shall it stand.

15 na saa onipa no atua, asane atua ɛbo korɔ no ara ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka ho ansa na efie no abɛyɛ ne dea bio.

And if he that sanctified it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy estimation unto it, and it shall be his.

16 “‘Sɛ ɔbarima bi pɛ sɛ ɔde nʼabusua asase fa bi bɔ afɔdeɛ ma Awurade a, wɔbɛgyina aba kɛntɛnma dodoɔ a ɛbɛhia sɛ wɔbɛdua wɔ so no so atwa asase no boɔ; aba kɛntɛnma biara boɔ yɛ dwetɛ gram ahanum ne aduɔson.

And if a man shall sanctify unto YHWH some part of a field of his possession, then thy estimation shall be according to the seed thereof: an homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.

17 Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ mu no, sɛ obi de nʼafuo kyɛ a, ne boɔ no rensesa.

If he sanctify his field from the year of jubile, according to thy estimation it shall stand.

18 Na sɛ ɔde asase no ma wɔ Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no akyi a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛgyina mfeɛ a aka ansa na Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ a ɛdi so no so asese ne boɔ, na wɔbɛtumi ate so.

But if he sanctify his field after the jubile, then the priest shall reckon unto him the money according to the years that remain, even unto the year of the jubile, and it shall be abated from thy estimation.

19 Na sɛ ɔbarima no pɛ sɛ ɔgye nʼasase a, ɔsɔfoɔ no boɔ a ɔbɛbɔ no, ɔbɛtua ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka ho ansa na asase no abɛyɛ ne dea bio.

And if he that sanctified the field will in any wise redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy estimation unto it, and it shall be assured to him.

20 Na sɛ nso ɔyɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔmpɛ sɛ ɔgye asase no bio, anaasɛ sɛ watɔn asase no ama obi foforɔ a, ɛnneɛ wɔrentumi nnye bio.

And if he will not redeem the field, or if he have sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more.

21 Sɛ wɔdane asase no ma wɔ Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no mu a, ɛbɛyɛ asase kronkron. Wɔde ato hɔ ama Awurade. Ɛbɛyɛ asɔfoɔ no agyapadeɛ.

But the field, when it goeth out in the jubile, shall be holy unto YHWH, as a field devoted; the possession thereof shall be the priest's.

22 “‘Sɛ obi bi de asase a watɔ ma Awurade, na sɛ asase no nyɛ nʼabusua asase a,

And if a man sanctify unto YHWH a field which he hath bought, which is not of the fields of his possession;

23 ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛgyina mfeɛ a aka ama wɔadi Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no so asese ne boɔ. Ɛsɛ sɛ onipa ko no tua ɛboɔ no ɛda no ara, na ɛyɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ kronkron ma Awurade.

Then the priest shall reckon unto him the worth of thy estimation, even unto the year of the jubile: and he shall give thine estimation in that day, as a holy thing unto YHWH.

24 Mfirinhyia Aduonum Afahyɛ no duru so a, asase no bɛsane akɔ deɛ ɔtɔneɛ no nkyɛn anaasɛ deɛ na ɔyɛ asase no wura no.

In the year of the jubile the field shall return unto him of whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land did belong.

25 Wɔbɛsese ɛho ka no nyinaa wɔ nnwetɛbena a wɔgye wɔ hyiadan mu, a ɛyɛ gram dubaako.

And all thy estimations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.

26 “‘Ɛnsɛ sɛ obiara de aboa bi abakan ma Awurade, ɛfiri sɛ abakan biara, sɛ ɔyɛ nantwie anaa odwan no, yɛ Awurade dea dada.

Only the firstling of the beasts, which should be YHWH 's firstling, no man shall sanctify it; whether it be ox, or sheep: it is YHWH 's.

27 Sɛ ɔyɛ mmoa a wɔn ho nteɛ no bi a, onipa no bɛtumi atua ne boɔ no, na ɔde ɛboɔ no mu nkyɛmu enum mu baako aka ho. Sɛ onipa no antɔ bio deɛ a, wɔbɛtɔn aboa no sɛdeɛ ne boɔ teɛ.

And if it be of an unclean beast, then he shall redeem it according to thine estimation, and shall add a fifth part of it thereto: or if it be not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to thy estimation.

28 “‘Adeɛ biara a wɔde ama Awurade no, sɛ ɛyɛ nnipa, mmoa anaa abusuasase no, ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔtɔn anaa wɔsane gye, ɛfiri sɛ, biribiara a ɛte saa no yɛ kronkron ma Awurade.

Notwithstanding no devoted thing, that a man shall devote unto YHWH of all that he hath, both of man and beast, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy unto YHWH.

29 “‘Onipa biara a Awurade ayi no asi nkyɛn ama ɔsɛeɛ no, wɔmmfa biribi ntua ne tiri ka. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no.

None devoted, which shall be devoted of men, shall be redeemed; but shall surely be put to death.

30 “‘Asase no so nnɔbaeɛ nkyɛmu edu mu baako, sɛ ɛyɛ aburoo anaa aduaba no yɛ Awurade dea. Ɛyɛ kronkron.

And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is YHWH 's: it is holy unto YHWH.

31 Sɛ obi pɛ sɛ ɔsane tɔ saa aduaba anaa aburoo no a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ne boɔ nkyɛmu enum mu baako ka ho.

And if a man will at all redeem ought of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth part thereof.

32 Anantwie ne nnwan no ntotosoɔ dudu nyinaa, aboa biara a ɔtɔ so edu a ɔfa odwanhwɛfoɔ nsam no yɛ kronkron ma Awurade.

And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatsoever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto YHWH.

33 Aboa a ɔtɔ so edu a wɔde bɛma Awurade no, wɔnhwɛ sɛ ɔyɛ anaa ɔnyɛ, na wɔmmfa biribiara nsi nʼananmu, ɛfiri sɛ, sɛ wɔde biribiara si ananmu a, ne nyinaa bɛyɛ kronkron, a obiara rentumi nnye bio.’”

He shall not search whether it be good or bad, neither shall he change it: and if he change it at all, then both it and the change thereof shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.

34 Yeinom ne mmara a Awurade de maa Mose wɔ Sinai Bepɔ so sɛ ɔnka nkyerɛ Israelfoɔ no.

These are the commandments, which YHWH commanded Moses for the children of Israel in mount Sinai.
