4 Mose 35
1 Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ bɔɔ atenaseɛ wɔ Yordan ho, Moab tata so a ɛne Yeriko di nhwɛanimu no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
Ngasemagcekeni aseMowabi kusekele umfula uJodani nganeno malungana leJerikho, uThixo wathi kuMosi,
2 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no na wɔmfa wɔn agyapadeɛ no mu bi a ɛyɛ nkuro ne ɛho mmoa adidibea mma Lewifoɔ.
“Laya abako-Israyeli ukuthi bakhethe elifeni labo amadolobho bawanike abaLevi ukuze bahlale kuwo. Njalo babanike lamadlelo eduze lamadolobho lawo.
3 Nkuro no mu na wɔbɛtena na wɔn anantwie, wɔn nnwan ne wɔn mmoa a aka no nso akɔ adidi wɔ adidibea hɔ.
Ngalokho bazakuba lamadolobho okuhlala kanye lamadlelo enkomo zabo, imihlambi yezimvu kanye leyezinye izifuyo zabo zonke.
4 “Wɔn mmoa adidibea no kɛseɛ bɛfiri kuro no afasuo ho a ne fa biara tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn apem ne ahanum.
Amadlelo azingelezele amadolobho elizawanika abaLevi, azakuba zingalo eziyinkulungwane ukuqhela kwawo kusukela emidulini yamadolobho.
5 Monsusu anammɔn mpensa mfiri kuro no afasuo no ho wɔ nʼafanan nyinaa. Yei bɛyɛ adidibea kɛseɛ ama nkuro no.
Ngempumalanga, ngaphandle kwedolobho, kuzakuba zingalo eziyizinkulungwane ezimbili kube njalo laseningizimu izingalo eziyizinkulungwane ezimbili, entshonalanga izingalo eziyizinkulungwane ezimbili, kufane laseceleni lenyakatho izingalo eziyizinkulungwane ezimbili, idolobho liphakathi laphakathi. Le kuzakuba yindawo yabo yamadlelo emadolobheni.”
6 “Momma Lewifoɔ no dwanekɔbea nkuropɔn nsia, baabi a obi a wafom akum ɔfoforɔ no bɛtumi adwane akɔ. Momfa nkuro aduanan mmienu nka wɔn ho.
“Phakathi kwamadolobho elizawanika abaLevi, ayisithupha azakuba ngawokuphephela, yikho lapho okuzakuthi umuntu angabulala omunye abalekele khona. Phezu kwalawo, bapheni amanye amadolobho angamatshumi amane lamabili.
7 Ne nyinaa bɛyɛ nkuro aduanan nwɔtwe ne ho adidibea.
Wonke esehlangene abaLevi bapheni amadolobho angamatshumi amane lasificaminwembili, kuhlanganisa lamadlelo abo.
8 Saa nkuro yi bɛfiri Israelfoɔ no agyapadeɛ mu. Mmusuakuo no mu akɛseɛ bɛma Lewifoɔ no nkuro bebree na mmusuakuo nketewa no ama kakraa. Abusuakuo biara bɛma sɛdeɛ nʼagyapadeɛ kɛseɛ teɛ.”
Amadolobho eliwanika abaLevi elizweni labako-Israyeli kawabiwe ngokuya ngelifa lesizwana ngasinye: Thathani amadolobho amanengi esizwaneni esilamadolobho amanengi, kodwa lithathe amalutshwana kwesilamalutshwana.”
9 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
Ngakho uThixo wasesithi kuMosi:
10 “Ka kyerɛ nnipa no sɛ, sɛ wɔduru asase no so a,
“Khuluma labako-Israyeli njalo ubatshele uthi: ‘Ekuchapheni kwenu uJodani lingena eKhenani,
11 wɔnyi Dwanekɔbea Nkuro a wɔde bɛma obiara a wafom akum onipa na ɔpɛ sɛ ɔdwane kɔ hɔ.
khethani amanye amadolobho abe ngawokuphephela, lapho okuzakuthi nxa umuntu ebulele omunye ngengozi abalekele khona.
12 Saa nkuro yi bɛyɛ dwanekɔbea ama owudifoɔ no afiri owufoɔ no abusuafoɔ a wɔpɛ sɛ wɔtɔ owufoɔ no wuo so awere; na ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔkum owudifoɔ no, gye sɛ wɔadi nʼasɛm abu no kumfɔ.
Azakuba zindawo zokuphephela ukuzivikela kwabaphindiselayo, ukuze kuthi lowo owetheswa icala lokubulala angafi engakathonisiswa phambi kwebandla.
13 Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsisi Dwanekɔbea Nkuro yi mu mmiɛnsa wɔ Kanaan asase so
Amadolobho ayisithupha la elibapha wona azakuba ngamadolobho enu okuphephela.
14 na wɔsisi mmiɛnsa nso wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan apueeɛ fam.
Bapheni amathathu ngakulelicele lomfula uJodani kuthi amathathu abe ngamadolobho okuphephela eKhenani.
15 Ɛnyɛ Israelfoɔ nko na ɛhɔ bɛyɛ wɔn dwanekɔbea, na mmom, ɛbɛyɛ dwanekɔbea ama ahɔhoɔ ne akwantufoɔ nyinaa.
Amadolobho la ayisithupha azakuba yindawo yokuphephela kwabako-Israyeli, labezizweni kanye labo bonke abantu abahlezi phakathi kwabo, ukuze kuthi loba ngubani obulele omunye ngengozi abalekele khona.
16 “Nanso, sɛ obi de dadeɛ poma sin bi bɔ obi kum no a, wɔfa no sɛ wadi awu, enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum owudifoɔ no.
Nxa indoda itshaya umuntu ngento eyinsimbi afe, ingumbulali; umbulali kumele abulawe.
17 Anaasɛ, sɛ wɔde ɛboɔ kɛseɛ bi bɔɔ owufoɔ no a, ɛyɛ awudie enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum owudifoɔ no.
Kumbe nxa omunye ephethe ilitshe abesetshaya omunye afe, ungumbulali; umbulali kumele abulawe.
18 Saa ara nso na sɛ wɔde dua na wɔde kumm no a, ɛte ara ne no.
Njalo nxa omunye ephethe ulutho oluyisigodo abesetshaya omunye afe, ungumbulali; umbulali kumele abulawe.
19 Sɛ ɔweretɔfoɔ no hyia owudifoɔ no baabiara a, ɔwɔ ho kwan sɛ ɔkum no bi.
Umphindiseli wegazi kumele ambulale umbulali; nxa ehlangana laye, kumele ambulale.
20 Enti, sɛ obi nam ɔtan so to biribi bɔ obi, anaasɛ ɔtetɛ no,
Loba ngubani olomona ohlezi eqophile engafuqa omunye loba amjikijele ngolutho oluthile ngabomo kubangele ukufa kwakhe
21 anaa ɔde abufuo bɔ no kuturuku na onii no wu a, ɔyɛ owudifoɔ enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔweretɔfoɔ no kum owudifoɔ no.
loba kuthi ngolaka amtshaye ngenqindi afe, lowomuntu kumele abulawe; ungumbulali. Umphindiseli wegazi kumele abulale umbulali nxa ehlangana laye.
22 “Na sɛ nkwanhyia no mu, sɛ obi anhyɛ da na ɔtoo biribi anaa ɛboɔ bi a wanto no abufuo so, na ɔnnim sɛ ɛbɛbɔ obi
Kodwa nxa kungayisikho ngolaka, umuntu aqabuke esefuqe omunye loba amjikijele ngolutho engaqondile
23 anaasɛ ɛnyɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔbɛha ne ɔtamfoɔ, na sɛ onipa ko no wu a,
loba engamboni, amgxobe ngelitshe elingambulala, afe, ngakho njengoba engasisositha sakhe njalo engaqondanga ukumlimaza,
24 ɛsɛ sɛ wɔdi asɛm no. Wɔbɛhwɛ sɛ ɛyɛ nkwanhyia anaa ɛnyɛ nkwanhyia, anaasɛ ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde saa onipa no hyɛ owufoɔ no weretɔni nsa anaa wɔmmfa no nhyɛ ne sa.
ibandla kumele lahlulele phakathi kwakhe lomphindiseli wegazi kulandelwa lezi zimiso.
25 Sɛ wɔsi gyinaeɛ sɛ ɛyɛ nkwanhyia a, nnipa no bɛgye owudifoɔ no afiri ɔweretɔfoɔ no nsam. Wɔbɛma owudifoɔ no atena Dwanekɔbea Kuro no mu hɔ ara akɔsi sɛ ɔsɔfopanin bɛwu.
Ibandla kumele livikele owetheswa icala lokubulala kumphindiseli wegazi njalo abuyiselwe edolobheni lokuphephela azabe ebalekele kulo. Kumele ahlale khonale kuze kufe umphristi omkhulu, owagcotshwa ngamafutha angcwele.
26 “Sɛ owudifoɔ no firi kuro no mu
Kodwa lowo owetheswa icala angaba ngaphandle kwedolobho lokuphephela lelo ayabe ebalekele kulo
27 na ɔweretɔni no hyia no na ɔkum no tua ka a, wɔmmfa no sɛ ɛyɛ awudie,
kuthi umphindiseli wegazi amfumane ngaphandle kwalelodolobho, umphindiseli wegazi angambulala lowo owetheswe icala kodwa angabi lacala lokubulala.
28 ɛfiri sɛ, anka ɛsɛ sɛ owudifoɔ no tena kuro no mu kɔsi mmerɛ a ɔsɔfopanin no bɛwu. Ɔsɔfopanin no wuo akyi no, owudifoɔ no tumi kɔ ne kurom.
Owetheswe icala kumele ahlale edolobheni lakhe lokuphephela kuze kufe umphristi omkhulu; uzaze abuyele emzini wakhe kuphela nxa umphristi omkhulu esefile.
29 “Yei yɛ Israelfoɔ mmara a ɛwɔ hɔ daa firi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so kɔsi awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ so.
Le kumele kube yimithetho yesimiso kini lakuzizukulwane ezizayo, loba kungaphi lapho elizahlala khona.
30 “Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum awudifoɔ nyinaa. Nanso gye sɛ adansefoɔ boro onipa baako di tia no ansa na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no. Sɛ onipa baako di adanseɛ tia no nso a, ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔkum no.
Loba ngubani obulala umuntu kumele abulawe njengombulali ngobufakazi balabo abayabe bebonile kuphela. Kodwa akungabikho loyedwa ozabulawa ngobufakazi bofakazi oyedwa.
31 “Ɛberɛ biara a wɔbɛbua obi kumfɔ no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔwuo a wɔnnye mpata biara.
Lingemukeli inhlawulo yokuhlenga impilo yombulali, yena kumele afe, loba kutheni kabulawe.
32 “Odwanefoɔ bi a ɔhyɛ Dwanekɔbea Kuropɔn no mu no nso nni ho ɛkwan sɛ ɔtua sika ma wɔma no ɛkwan kɔ ne kurom ansa na ɔsɔfopanin no awu.
Lingemukeli inhlawulo yokuhlenga loba ngubani obalekele edolobheni lokuphephela libe selimvumela ukuba abuyele ukuyahlala emzini wakhe umphristi omkhulu engakafi.
33 “Yei na ɛbɛma awerɛhyɛmu sɛ asase a mote so no ho rengu fi, ɛfiri sɛ, awudie gu asase ho fi. Wɔrentumi nyɛ mpatadeɛ foforɔ biara mma awudie gye sɛ wɔkum owudifoɔ no.
Lingalingcolisi ilizwe lelo elihlala kulo. Ukuchitha igazi kungcolisa ilizwe, njalo indlela yokubuyisana ingeke yenzelwe lapho okuchithwe khona igazi, ngaphandle kwegazi lalowo olichithileyo.
34 Monngu asase a morekɔtena so no ho fi, ɛfiri sɛ, Me, Awurade mete hɔ bi. Mene Awurade a mete Israelfoɔ mu no.”
Lingalingcolisi ilizwe elihlezi kilo kanye lalapho engihlala khona, ngoba Mina, Thixo, ngihlala phakathi kwabako-Israyeli.’”
