4 Mose 17
1 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And the Lord spak to Moises, `and seide, Speke thou to the sones of Israel,
2 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, abusua biara ɔdaanoni no ntwa poma na ɔntwerɛ ne din wɔ ho.
and take thou yerdis, bi her kynredis, bi ech kynrede o yeerde, take thou of alle the princes of the lynagis twelue yerdis; and thou schalt write the name of each lynage aboue his yerde;
3 Aaron din na wɔbɛtwerɛ agu Lewi abusuakuo poma no ho.
forsothe the name of Aaron schal be in the lynage of Leuy, and o yerde schal conteyne alle the meynees of hem.
4 Momfa mpoma yi ngu Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu ahyiaeɛm wɔ baabi a mehyia mo wɔ adaka no anim hɔ no.
And thou schalt putte tho yerdis in the tabernacle of boond of pees, bifor the witnessyng, where Y schal speke to thee; the yerde of hym schal buriowne, whom Y schal chese of hem;
5 Menam mpoma yi so bɛkyerɛ onipa a mɛyi no no, na ne poma no ho bɛfefɛ! Ɛno akyi, anwiinwii a wɔnwiinwii tia wo no nyinaa to bɛtwa.”
and Y schal refreyne fro me the playnyngis of the sones of Israel, bi whiche thei grutchen ayens you.
6 Enti, Mose hyɛɛ saa mmara yi maa nnipa no maa ahemfo dumienu no a Aaron ka wɔn ho de wɔn mpoma brɛɛ no.
And Moyses spak to the sones of Israel; and alle princes yauen to hym yerdis, bi alle lynagis; and the yerdis weren twelue, without the yerde of Aaron.
7 Ɔde guu Awurade anim wɔ Adanseɛ Ntomadan no mu hɔ.
And whanne Moises hadde put tho yerdis bifor the Lord, in the tabernacle of witnessyng, he yede ayen in the day suynge,
8 Adeɛ kyeeɛ a ɔkɔɔ mu no, ɔhunuu sɛ Aaron poma a ɛwɔ hɔ ma Lewi abusuakuo no afefɛ ayɛ frɔmm, aso aba a ɛsensɛn so.
and founde that the yerde of Aaron, `in the hows of Leuy, buriounnede; and whanne knoppis weren greet, the blossoms `hadden broke out, whiche weren alargid in leeuys, and weren fourmed in to alemaundis.
9 Ɛberɛ a Mose de firii Awurade hɔ baeɛ sɛ ɔde rebɛkyerɛ nkurɔfoɔ no, wɔhunuiɛ no, wɔn ho dwirii wɔn. Afei, obiara gyee ne poma, gye Aaron nko.
Therfor Moyses brouyte forth alle the yerdis fro the siyt of the Lord to al the sones of Israel; and thei sien, and resseyueden ech his yerde.
10 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ ɔmfa Aaron poma no nto adaka no ho pɛɛ na ɔmfa nkae saa adɔnyɛ no. Na ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ba bɛkyerɛ nnipa no bio na sɛ anwiinwii bi wɔ hɔ a ɛtia Aaron tumi a, ɛbɛsi amanehunu foforɔ a anka ɛbɛba nnipa no so no ano.
And the Lord seide to Moises, Bere ayen the yerde of Aaron in to the tabernacle of witnessyng, that it be kept there in to `the signe of the rebel sones of Israel, and that her `playntis reste fro me, lest thei dien.
11 Enti, Mose yɛɛ deɛ Awurade hyɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no.
And Moises dide, as the Lord comaundide.
12 Nanso Israelfoɔ no kɔɔ so nwiinwiiɛ sɛ, “Yɛyɛ teaseawuo.
Forsothe the sones of Israel seiden to Moises, Lo! we ben wastid, alle we perischiden;
13 Obiara a ɔbɛbɛn Awurade Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ho no wu. Ɛsɛ sɛ yɛn nyinaa ase hye anaa?”
who euer neiyeth to the tabernacle of the Lord, he dieth; whethir we schulen be doon awei alle `til to deeth?
