3 Mose 6
1 Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 “Sɛ obi yɛ bɔne tia me, sɛ ebia, ɔmpɛ sɛ ɔsane de biribi a wɔde ama no asie kɔto baabi a ɛda anaasɛ ɔbɔ korɔno, anaa ɔsisi ne yɔnko,
If any person sin, and commit a trespass against the Lord; if he, namely, lie unto his neighbor in that which was delivered to him to keep, or in a loan, or in a thing taken away by violence, or if he have withheld the wages of his neighbor;
3 anaa ɔtu ahunu na ɔka ntam sane wɔ ho sɛ dekodeɛ no nni ne nkyɛn a,
Or if he have found something which was lost, and lie concerning it, and swear falsely; in any one of all these which a man can do, to sin thereby:
4 sɛ obi yɛ bɔne na ɔdi ho fɔ a, ɔbɛsane de ne korɔnodeɛ no anaa ne tintinnyɛdeɛ anaa deɛ wɔde maa no sieeɛ anaa agyapadeɛ a wɔde ahyɛ ne nsa, anaa adeɛ a ayera no aba.
Then shall it be, when he hath sinned and is conscious of his guilt, that he shall restore what be hath taken violently away, or the wages which he hath withheld, or that which was delivered to him to keep, or the lost thing which he hath found,
5 Biribiara a waka ho ntanhunu no nso, ɔbɛsane de ne nyinaa aba na ɔde ho mfɛntom ɔha mu nkyɛmu aduonu aka ho abrɛ onipa ko a ne dea no, ɛda a ɔrebɔ afɔdie ho afɔdeɛ no.
Or any one thing about which he may have sworn falsely; and he shall restore it in its principal, and the fifth part thereof shall he add thereto; unto him to whom it appertaineth shall he give it, on the day when he confesseth his trespass.
6 Nʼafɔdie ho afɔrebɔdeɛ no bɛyɛ odwennini a ɔnni dɛm. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔdi ɛboɔ biara a wɔbɛbɔ no no. Ɔde no bɛma ɔsɔfoɔ
And his trespass-offering shall he bring unto the Lord, a ram without blemish out of the flocks, of the usual value, for a trespass-offering, unto the priest:
7 na ɔsɔfoɔ no de no ayɛ mpatadeɛ ama no wɔ Awurade anim na wɔde ne bɔne akyɛ no.”
And the priest shall make an atonement for him before the Lord, and it shall be forgiven unto him, for any one thing of all that he may have done to trespass thereby.
8 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
9 “Fa saa mmara a ɛfa ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ho yi ma Aaron ne ne mmammarima. ‘Wɔbɛgya ɔhyeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ no wɔ ogya no so anadwo mu no nyinaa a afɔrebukyia ogya no gu so rehye.
Command Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the law of the burnt-offering: It is the burnt-offering, which shall be burning upon the altar all night unto the morning, and the fire of the altar shall be burning on it.
10 Adeɛ kye a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhyɛ nʼasɔfotadeɛ nahanaha wɔ aseɛ na wahyɛ atadetam korɔ no ara bi ngugusoɔ na wakɔpra ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ nsõ no de agu afɔrebukyia no nkyɛn.
And the priest shall put on his linen garment, and linen breeches shall he put upon his flesh, and he shall lift up the ashes which the fire hath made by consuming the burnt-offering on the altar, and he shall place them beside the altar.
11 Afei, ɔbɛsesa ne ntadeɛ no na wasoa nsõ no afiri beaeɛ hɔ de akɔgu beaeɛ foforɔ a wɔate hɔ no.
And he shall take off his garments, and put on other garments, and carry forth the ashes to without the camp, unto a clean place.
12 Saa ɛberɛ yi nyinaa ɛsɛ sɛ ogya a ɛwɔ afɔrebukyia no so no dɛre. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɛdum. Anɔpa biara ɔsɔfoɔ no de ogya foforɔ bɛhyɛ mu na ɔde ɛda biara ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ agu so, na wahye sradeɛ a wɔde bɔ ɛda biara asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ no.
And the fire upon the altar shall be burning on it, it shall not be put out, and the priest shall burn wood on it every morning: and he shall lay in order upon it the burnt-offering, and he shall burn thereon the fat of the peace-offerings.
13 Ɛsɛ sɛ ɛberɛ biara ogya no kɔ so dɛre. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɛdum.
A perpetual fire shall be burning upon the altar; it shall not go out.
14 “‘Atokoɔ afɔdeɛ ho mmara nso nie: Aaron mmammarima bɛgyina afɔrebukyia no anim na wɔde atokoɔ afɔrebɔ no ama Awurade.
And this is the law of the meat-offering: [one of] the sons of Aaron shall bring it near before the Lord, in front of the altar.
15 Ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛsa asikyiresiam a wɔayam no muhumuhu no ne nsabuo ma na ɔde ngo ne aduhwam afra ahye no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so sɛ ananmusideɛ ama Awurade; na Awurade ani bɛsɔ.
And he shall lift up from it his handful, of the flour of the meat-offering, and of its oil, and all the frankincense which is upon the meat-offering, and he shall burn it upon the altar, for a sweet savor, as its memorial, unto the Lord.
16 Ɔsa ne nsabuo ma wie a, deɛ ɛbɛka no yɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima dea a wɔbɛdie. Wɔbɛdi a wɔremfa mmɔreka mfra wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no adihɔ hɔ.
And what is left thereof shall Aaron and his sons eat: unleavened shall it be eaten in a holy place; in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation shall they eat it.
17 Si so dua sɛ, sɛ wɔto a, wɔmmfa mmɔreka mfra mu. Mede saa ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ a wɔbɔ maa me no bi ama asɔfoɔ no. Esiane sɛ ne nyinaa yɛ bɔne ne afɔdie ho afɔrebɔ enti, ɛyɛ kronkron.
It shall not be baked leaven; as their portion have I given it from my offerings made by fire; it is most holy, as is the sin-offering, and as is the trespass-offering.
18 Aaron asefoɔ mmarima ne asɔfoɔ na wɔnni mfiri awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so nkɔsi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so. Nanso asɔfoɔ no nko ara na wɔnni afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔabɔ no ogya so ama Awurade no.’”
all the males among the children of Aaron shall eat of it, as a fixed portion for ever in your generations from the fire-offerings of the Lord: every one that toucheth the same shall be holy.
19 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
20 “Ɛda a wɔbɛsra Aaron ne ne mmammarima ngo no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde asikyiresiam lita mmienu ne fa brɛ Awurade. Wɔde fa bɛba anɔpa na wɔde fa aba anwummerɛ.
This is the offering of Aaron and of his sons, which they shall offer unto the Lord on the day when he is anointed: the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a meat-offering perpetually; half of it in the morning, and the other half of it in the evening.
21 Wɔde ngo bɛfra ato wɔ dadeɛ apaawa so. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔto no yie na wɔde brɛ Awurade sɛ nʼafɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛsɔ nʼani yie.
In a pan, with oil, shall it be made, well sodden shalt thou bring it; twice baked, a meat-offering of broken pieces, shalt thou offer it for a sweet savor unto the Lord.
22 Ɔsɔfoɔ a ɔfiri Aaron mmammarima mu a wɔrehyɛ no ɔsɔfoɔ ma wasi nʼagya anan no de bɛma Awurade sɛdeɛ wɔahyɛ ho mmara afebɔɔ sɛ wɔnhye ne nyinaa no.
And the priest that shall be anointed in his stead among his sons shall offer it: it is a statute for ever, unto the Lord; it shall be wholly burnt.
23 Ɔsɔfoɔ biara atokoɔ afɔdeɛ a ɔbɛbɔ no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhye ne nyinaa. Ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔdi.”
And every meat-offering of a priest shall be wholly burnt, it shall not be eaten.
24 Afei Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
25 “Ka kyerɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima sɛ bɔne afɔrebɔ ho mmara nie: Saa afɔrebɔdeɛ yi ho yɛ kronkron yie enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no Awurade anim wɔ beaeɛ a wɔkum ɔhyeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ wɔ hɔ no.
Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, saying, This is the law of the sin-offering: On the place where the burnt-offering is killed shall the sin-offering be killed before the Lord; it is most holy.
26 Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ a ɔyɛ afɔrebɔ no ho adwuma no we afɔrebɔdeɛ no wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no adihɔ hɔ.
The priest who maketh atonement with its blood shall eat it: in a holy place shall it be eaten, in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation.
27 Wɔn a wɔate wɔn ho a wɔyɛ asɔfoɔ nko ara na wɔwɔ ho kwan sɛ wɔde wɔn nsa ka ɛnam no bi; na sɛ ɛba sɛ aboa no mogya bi pete wɔn ntadeɛ mu a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsi ntadeɛ no wɔ beaeɛ a wɔate ho hɔ.
Whatsoever may touch the flesh thereof shall be holy: and if there should be sprinkled any of its blood upon a garment, whatever it hath been sprinkled on shalt thou wash out in a holy place.
28 Kukuo a wɔnoaa ɛnam no wɔ mu no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔbɔ no; na sɛ ɛyɛ kɔbere nso a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔtwi mu, na wɔde nsuo hohoro mu nyinaa yie.
And any earthen vessel wherein it may have been boiled shall be broken: and if it have been boiled in a copper vessel, it shall be both scoured and rinsed with water.
29 Ɔbarima biara a ɔfra asɔfoɔ no mu no bɛdi afɔrebɔdeɛ no bi—wɔn nko ara—ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ kronkron yie.
Every male among the priests may eat thereof: it is most holy.
30 Sɛ wɔde bɔne ho afɔrebɔdeɛ no mogya no bi kɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan mu hɔ de kɔyɛ mpatadeɛ wɔ kronkronbea hɔ a, ɔsɔfoɔ biara renwe bi. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ogya hye aboa no nyinaa wɔ Awurade anim.
And every sin-offering whereof any of the blood is brought into the tabernacle of the congregation to make atonement therewith in the holy place, shall not be eaten; it shall be burnt in fire.
