3 Mose 1

1 Afei, Awurade kasa firii Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,

And the LORD called unto Moses, and spake unto him out of the tent of meeting, saying,

2 “Kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, ‘sɛ morebɔ Awurade afɔdeɛ a, momfa mo anantwie ne mo nnwan no bi na mommɔ saa afɔdeɛ no.

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When any man of you offereth an oblation unto the LORD, ye shall offer your oblation of the cattle, [even] of the herd and of the flock.

3 “‘Sɛ mo afɔrebɔdeɛ a mode rebɛbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no yɛ nantwie a ɔfiri mo nantwibuo mu a, momfa nantwie a ɔnnii dɛm na mommɔ saa afɔdeɛ no sɛdeɛ ɛbɛsɔ Awurade ani. Fa aboa no kɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ɛpono ano na ɛhɔ na asɔfoɔ no bɛgye wʼayɛyɛdeɛ a wode rebrɛ Awurade no.

If his oblation be a burnt offering of the herd, he shall offer it a male without blemish: he shall offer it at the door of the tent of meeting, that he may be accepted before the LORD.

4 Ɛsɛ sɛ onipa a ɔde aboa no reba no de ne nsa gu aboa no tiri so sɛ mpatadeɛ ma afɔrebɔni no. Onyankopɔn bɛpɛ aboa no wuo sene sɛ afɔrebɔni a ɔde saa aboa no bɛba no bɛwu sɛ ne bɔne so akatua.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the burnt offering; and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.

5 Afɔrebɔni no bɛkum aboa no wɔ hɔ wɔ Awurade anim. Na Aaron mmammarima asɔfoɔ no asɔ aboa no mogya de akyerɛ Awurade. Na wɔde mogya no apete afɔrebukyia a ɛsi Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no kwan no ano no ne ɛho nyinaa.

And he shall kill the bullock before the LORD: and Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall present the blood, and sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar that is at the door of the tent of meeting.

6 Afei, asɔfoɔ no bɛpa aboa no ho nhoma na wɔabobɔ.

And he shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into its pieces.

7 Na ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron mmammarima no bɛsɔ ogya wɔ afɔrebukyia no so.

And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon the altar, and lay wood in order upon the fire:

8 Na wɔde aboa no afaafa bi ne ne ti ne ne sradeɛ agu nnyensin no so.

and Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall lay the pieces, the head, and the fat, in order upon the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar:

9 Wɔnhohoro nʼayamdeɛ ne ne nan ho na asɔfoɔ no nhye no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so na ayɛ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ a ɛsɔ Awurade ani.

but its inwards and its legs shall he wash with water: and the priest shall burn the whole on the altar, for a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.

10 “‘Sɛ aboa a wɔde no rebɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no yɛ odwan anaa abirekyie a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔyɛ onini a ne ho nni dɛm biara.

And if his oblation be of the flock, of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt offering; he shall offer it a male without blemish.

11 Onipa a ɔde no baeɛ no bɛkum no Awurade anim wɔ afɔrebukyia no atifi na Aaron mmammarima asɔfoɔ no apete mogya no agu afɔrebukyia no so ne ɛho nyinaa.

And he shall kill it on the side of the altar northward before the LORD: and Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall sprinkle its blood upon the altar round about.

12 Ɔbɛhyehyɛ ɛnam no na asɔfoɔ no de nʼasinasini no ne botire no ne ne sradeɛ no agu nnyensin a ɛgu afɔrebukyia no so no so.

And he shall cut it into its pieces, with its head and its fat: and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar:

13 Wɔde nsuo bɛhohoro nʼayamdeɛ ne ne nan no ho ansa na asɔfoɔ no ahye no afɔrebukyia no so de ama Awurade; ɛfiri sɛ, ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ sɔ Awurade ani.

but the inwards and the legs shall he wash with water: and the priest shall offer the whole, and burn it upon the altar: it is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.

14 “‘Sɛ obi pɛ sɛ ɔde anomaa bɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ a, ɔmfa nturukuku anaa mmorɔnoma mma.

And if his oblation to the LORD be a burnt offering of fowls, then he shall offer his oblation of turtledoves, or of young pigeons.

15 Ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛfa anomaa no de no akɔ afɔrebukyia no so na wate ne ti ahye no, na ne mogya no, ɔbɛsɔne agu afɔrebukyia no nkyɛn.

And the priest shall bring it unto the altar, and wring off its head, and burn it on the altar; and the blood thereof shall be drained out on the side of the altar:

16 Afei, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛyi ne mene ase, atutu ne ntakra no na wato agu nsõ no mu wɔ afɔrebukyia no apueeɛ fam.

and he shall take away its crop with the filth thereof, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, in the place of the ashes:

17 Afei, ɔbɛtwe nʼatabu mu ama emu ntini no atete asensɛn hɔ. Na ɔsɔfoɔ no ahye no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so na Awurade de anigyeɛ bɛgye saa afɔrebɔ yi.

and he shall rend it by the wings thereof, [but] shall not divide it asunder: and the priest shall burn it upon the altar, upon the wood that is upon the fire: it is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
