3 Mose 8
1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Afei fa Aaron ne ne mmammarima bra Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no kwan no ano. Wɔmfa wɔn ntadeɛ, ɔsra ngo, nantwie ba a wɔde no bɛbɔ bɔne afɔdeɛ, nnwennini mmienu ne burodo a mmɔreka nni mu nkɛntɛmma mmienu
Take Aaron with his sons, their vestments, and the oil of unction, a calf for sin, two rams, a basket with unleavened bread,
3 na frɛ Israelfoɔ no nyinaa na wɔmmra hɔ bi.”
And thou shalt gather together all the congregation to the door of the tabernacle.
4 Enti nnipa no nyinaa hyiaeɛ wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no kwan ano.
And Moses did as the Lord had commanded. And all the multitude being gathered together before the door of the tabernacle,
5 Mose ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Adeɛ a merebɛyɛ yi, Awurade na wahyɛ me sɛ menyɛ.”
He said: This is the word that the Lord hath commanded to be done.
6 Afei, ɔfaa Aaron ne ne mmammarima de nsuo hohoroo wɔn ho,
And immediately he offered Aaron and his sons: and when he had washed them,
7 de Aaron atadeɛ sononko a ne mmeamu ka ho de ne batakari a asɔfotadeɛ a wɔde tam a ɛyɛ fɛ ayɛ nʼabɔwomu hyɛɛ no.
He vested the high priest with the strait linen garment, girding him with the girdle, and putting on him the violet tunick, and over it he put the ephod,
8 Afei, Mose de adaaboɔ fam Aaron bo de Urim ne Tumim no hyɛɛ mu.
And binding it with the girdle, he fitted it to the rational, on which was Doctrine and Truth.
9 Ɔbɔɔ Aaron abotire a ɛwɔ sika abɔnimu kronkron sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no ara pɛ.
He put also the mitre upon his head: and upon the mitre over the forehead, he put the plate of gold, consecrated with sanctification, as the Lord had commanded him.
10 Afei, Mose faa ɔsra ngo no de bi petee Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ankasa ne biribiara a ɛwɔ mu ho de tee ne nyinaa ho.
He took also the oil of unction, with which he anointed the tabernacle, with all the furniture thereof.
11 Ɔduruu afɔrebukyia no so no, ɔpetee so mprɛnson. Afei, ɔpetee nkukuo a ɛwɔ afɔrebukyia no so no ne atam ne ne ntaamu ho de tee ho.
And when he had sanctified and sprinkled the altar seven times, he anointed it, and all the vessels thereof, and the laver with the foot thereof, he sanctified with the oil.
12 Afei, ɔhwiee ɔsra ngo no guu Aaron tirim de tee ne ho sɛ ɔnhyɛ nʼadwuma ase.
And he poured it upon Aaron’s head, and he anointed and consecrated him:
13 Deɛ ɛdi hɔ ne sɛ, Mose de mmatakari no hyehyɛɛ Aaron mmammarima a abɔwomu ne ɛkyɛ ka ho sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no.
And after he had offered his sons, he vested them with linen tunicks, and girded them with girdles, and put mitres on them as the Lord had commanded.
14 Afei, ɔfaa nantwinini ba sɛ ɔde no rekɔbɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ. Aaron ne ne mmammarima de wɔn nsa guu aboa no apampam,
He offered also the calf for sin: and when Aaron and his sons had put their hands upon the head thereof,
15 ma Mose kumm no. Ɔde ne nsateaa baako bɔɔ ne mogya mu de yɛɛ afɔrebukyia mmɛn nan no ho ne afɔrebukyia no ankasa ho de tee ho, ɛnna ɔhwiee mogya no nkaeɛ no guu afɔrebukyia no ase de tee ho sɛ mpatadeɛ.
He immolated it: and took the blood, and dipping his finger in it, he touched the horns of the altar round about. Which being expiated, and sanctified, he poured the rest of the blood at the bottom thereof.
16 Ɔfaa nʼayamdeɛ ho sradeɛ ne ne berɛboɔ ho sradeɛ ne ne sawa mmienu no ne ɛho sradeɛ hyee ne nyinaa wɔ afɔrebukyia no so.
But the fat that was upon the entrails, and the caul of the liver, and the two little kidneys, with their fat, he burnt upon the altar:
17 Wɔhyee nantwinini ba no ne ne nhoma ne nʼagyanan wɔ sraban no akyi sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
And the calf with the skin, and the flesh and the dung, he burnt without the camp, as the Lord had commanded.
18 Afei, ɔde odwennini maa Awurade sɛ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ. Aaron ne ne mmammarima de wɔn nsa guu aboa no apampam
He offered also a ram for a holocaust: and when Aaron and his sons had put their hands upon its head,
19 na Mose kumm no de ne mogya no bi petee afɔrebukyia no ho nyinaa.
He immolated it, and poured the blood thereof round about upon the altar.
20 Afei, ɔbobɔɔ odwennini no nam na ɔhyee asinasini no a ne ti ne ne sradeɛ ka ho.
And cutting the ram into pieces, the head thereof, and the joints, and the fat he burnt in the fire,
21 Na ɔde nsuo hohoroo nʼayamdeɛ ne ne nan no ho hyee no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so maa ne nyinaa hyee pasaa wɔ Awurade anim. Ɛyɛ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ a ɛsɔɔ Awurade ani yie, ɛfiri sɛ, Mose dii Awurade akwankyerɛ no nyinaa so pɛpɛɛpɛ.
Having first washed the entrails, and the feet, and the whole ram together he burnt upon the altar, because it was a holocaust of most sweet odour to the Lord, as he had commanded him.
22 Afei, Mose de odwennini baako a ɔyɛ ahoteɛ dwennini baeɛ. Aaron ne ne mmammarima de wɔn nsa guu nʼapampam.
He offered also the second ram, in the consecration of priests: and Aaron, and his sons put their hands upon the head thereof:
23 Mose kumm no na ɔde mogya no bi kaa Aaron aso nifa ase ne ne nsa nifa kokurobetie ne ne nan nifa kokurobetie.
And when Moses had immolated it, he took of the blood thereof, and touched the tip of Aaron’s right ear, and the thumb of his right hand, and in like manner also the great toe of his right foot.
24 Ɔde mogya no bi yɛɛ Aaron mmammarima no nso aso nifa ase ne wɔn nsa nifa kokurobetie ne wɔn nan nifa kokurobetie. Ɔde mogya no nkaeɛ petee afɔrebukyia no ho nyinaa.
He offered also the sons of Aaron: and when with the blood of the ram that was immolated, he had touched the tip of the right ear of every one of them, and the thumbs of their right hands, and the great toes of their right feet, the rest he poured on the altar round about:
25 Afei, ɔfaa sradeɛ no, ne dua, ne ne mu sradeɛ, ne berɛboɔ kotokuo, ne sawa mmienu no ne ɛho sradeɛ ne nʼabati nifa
But the fat, and the rump, and all the fat that covereth the entrails, and the caul of the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat, and with the right shoulder, he separated.
26 ɛnna ɔde saa burodo ntrawa a mmɔreka nni mu no baako nso ne burodo ntrawa no baako a wɔde ngo agu so ne burodo ntrawa baako a wɔfaa ne nyinaa firii kɛntɛn a wɔde bɛsii hɔ wɔ Awurade anim no mu guguu yeinom nyinaa so.
And taking out of the basket; of unleavened bread, which was before the Lord, a loaf without leaven, and a cake tempered with oil and a wafer, he put them upon the fat, and the right shoulder,
27 Wɔde yeinom nyinaa hyɛɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima nsa sɛ wɔnhim no afɔrebukyia no anim sɛ ɔhim afɔrebɔ mma Awurade.
Delivering all to Aaron, and to his sons: wile having lifted them up before the Lord,
28 Mose gyee ne nyinaa firii wɔn nsam hyee no wɔ afɔrebukyia no so de maa Awurade; na afɔrebɔ no sɔɔ Awurade ani.
He took them again from their hands, and burnt them upon the altar of holocaust, because it was the oblation of consecration, for a sweet odour of sacrifice to the Lord.
29 Afei Mose faa ne yan no hinhim no Awurade anim; yei ne Mose kyɛfa wɔ ahoteɛ odwennini no mu sɛdeɛ Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no.
And he took of the ram of consecration, the breast for his portion, elevating it before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded him.
30 Afei ɔfaa ɔsra ngo no ne mogya a ɔde apete afɔrebukyia no so no bi de petee Aaron ne ne mmammarima ntadeɛ mu de tee Aaron ne ne mmammarima ne wɔn ntadeɛ ho maa Awurade dwumadie.
And taking the ointment, and the blood that was upon the altar, he sprinkled Aaron, and his vestments, and his sons, and their vestments with it.
31 Mose ka kyerɛɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima no sɛ, “Monnoa ɛnam no wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no kwan ano na momfa nni burodo a ɛwɔ kɛntɛn a asɔfohyɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ wɔ mu no sɛdeɛ meka kyerɛɛ mo no.
And when he had sanctified them in their vestments, he commanded them, saying: Boil the flesh before the door of the tabernacle, and there eat it. Eat ye also the loaves of consecration, that are laid in the basket, as the Lord commanded me, saying: Aaron and his sons shall eat them:
32 Ɛnam ne burodo biara a ɛbɛka no, monhye.
And whatsoever shall be left of the flesh and the leaves, shall be consumed with fire.
33 Bio, ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔntena Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ano nnanson, mfa nwie asɔfohyɛ dwumadie no.
And you shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle for seven days, until the day wherein the time of your consecration shall be expired. For in seven days the consecration is finished:
34 Mose kaa bio sɛ, deɛ ɔyɛɛ no ɛda no nyinaa no, Awurade na ɔhyɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ mfa nyɛ mpata mma wɔn.
As at this present it hath been done, that the rite of the sacrifice might be accomplished.
35 Ɔsane hyɛɛ Aaron ne ne mmammarima no sɛ wɔntena Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ano anadwo ne awia nnanson. Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Sɛ mofiri hɔ a, mobɛwuwu. Yei ne asɛm a Awurade aka.’”
Day and night shall you remain in the tabernacle observing the watches of the Lord, lest you die: for so it hath been commanded me.
36 Enti, Aaron ne ne mmammarima dii nsɛm a Awurade nam Mose so hyɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ no nyinaa so.
And Aaron and his sons did all things which the Lord spoke by the hand of Moses.
