< Numbers 9 >

1 And the LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt, saying,
Ɔsram a edi kan no mu afe a ɛto so abien no mu a wɔafi Misraim no na Awurade kaa saa asɛm yi kyerɛɛ Mose bere a ɔne Israelfo wɔ Sinai sare no so no se,
2 Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at its appointed season.
“Ma Israelfo no nni Twam Afahyɛ no wɔ ne bere ano.
3 In the fourteenth day of this month, at evening, ye shall keep it in its appointed season: according to all its rites, and according to all its ceremonies, shall ye keep it.
Munni no wɔ ne bere ano, na mofa ne mmara akwan ahorow no nyinaa so nni wɔ ɔsram yi da a ɛto so dunan no anwummere.”
4 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover.
Enti Mose ka kyerɛɛ Israelfo no se wonni Twam Afahyɛ no,
5 And they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month at evening in the wilderness of Sinai: according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.
na wɔyɛɛ saa wɔ Sinai Nweatam no so wɔ ɔsram a edi kan no da a ɛto so dunan no anwummere. Na Israelfo no yɛɛ biribiara pɛpɛɛpɛ sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
6 And there were certain men, who were defiled by the dead body of a man, that they could not keep the passover on that day: and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day:
Nanso na nnipa no bi fi ayi aba a esiane sɛ wɔde wɔn ho aka owufo nti na wɔn ho agu fi. Eyi nti wɔantumi anni Twam Afahyɛ no bi. Enti wɔbaa Mose ne Aaron nkyɛn da no ara
7 And those men said to him, We are defiled by the dead body of a man: why are we kept back, that we may not offer an offering of the LORD in its appointed season among the children of Israel?
bɛka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Yɛde yɛn ho aka funu ama yɛn ho agu fi, nanso dɛn nti na yɛne Israelfo nyinaa rentumi mfa yɛn afɔrebɔde mmrɛ Awurade sɛnea nhyehyɛe no te no?”
8 And Moses said to them, Stand still, and I will hear what the LORD will command concerning you.
Mose buaa wɔn se, “Montwɛn mma mimmisa sɛnea Awurade mmara no ka fa mo ho.”
9 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
10 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, If any man of you or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or be in a journey afar off, yet he shall keep the passover to the LORD.
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se, Obiara a obeso funu mu, sɛ ɔyɛ nnɛmma anaa ofi awo ntoatoaso a ɛreba no mu wɔ Twam Afahyɛ bere a ɛbɛma ne ho agu fi anaa ɔnam akwantu so nti wɔantumi amma no tumi di Awurade Twam Afahyɛ no,
11 The fourteenth day of the second month at evening they shall keep it, and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
nanso ɔsram a ɛto so abien no da a ɛto so dunan no anwummere na ɛsɛ sɛ wodi. Saa bere no na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔwe oguamma no a brodo a mmɔkaw nni mu ka ho a naban nweenwen ka ho.
12 They shall leave none of it to the morning, nor break any bone of it: according to all the ordinances of the passover they shall keep it.
Ɛnsɛ sɛ wogyaw bi ma ade kye so, anaa wɔbɔ ne dompe mu. Na ɛsɛ sɛ wodi Twam Afahyɛ no mmara no nyinaa so pɛpɛɛpɛ.
13 But the man that is clean, and is not in a journey, and forbeareth to keep the passover, even the same soul shall be cut off from among his people: because he brought not the offering of the LORD in its appointed season, that man shall bear his sin.
Nanso obiara a ne ho nguu fi anaa obi a ontuu kwan nanso wanni Twam Afahyɛ no wɔ ne bere ano no, ɛsɛ sɛ wotwa no asu afi Israelfo no mu wɔ afɔre a wamma ammɛbɔ amma Awurade bere a ɛsɛ mu no nti. Wɔbɛsoa wɔn afɔdi ho sodi.
14 And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the passover to the LORD; according to the ordinance of the passover, and according to the manner of it, so shall he do: ye shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the land.
“Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhɔho a ɔfra mo mu no fa mmara koro no ara so di Awurade Twam Afahyɛ no. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhɔho ne okuroni nyinaa di mmara koro no so.”
15 And on the day that the tabernacle was erected the cloud covered the tabernacle, namely, the tent of the testimony: and at evening there was upon the tabernacle as it were the appearance of fire, until the morning.
Da a wɔmaa Ahyiae Ntamadan no so sii hɔ no, omununkum kataa so. Anwummere no ara, omununkum no dan yɛɛ sɛ ogya na ɛyɛɛ saa ara anadwo mu no nyinaa de kosii adekyee.
16 So it was always: the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance of fire by night.
Saa ara na ɛte bere biara, na edu anadwo a, mununkum no dan yɛ sɛ ogya.
17 And when the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle, then after that the children of Israel journeyed: and in the place where the cloud abode, there the children of Israel pitched their tents.
Omununkum no maa ne ho so no, Israelfo no dii akyi kosii baabiara a ɛkɔ kogyina ma wɔbɔɔ hɔ atenae.
18 At the commandment of the LORD the children of Israel journeyed, and at the commandment of the LORD they encamped: as long as the cloud abode upon the tabernacle they rested in their tents.
Eyi kyerɛ sɛ, sɛ Awurade ka se wɔnkɔ a, wɔkɔ, na sɛ ɔka se wonnyina a, wogyina. Na sɛ Omununkum no gyina a, wɔn nso gyina mmere dodow a egyina hɔ no nyinaa.
19 And when the cloud tarried long upon the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the charge of the LORD, and journeyed not.
Sɛ egyina baabi kyɛ a, wɔn nso gyina hɔ kyɛ. Na sɛ egyina hɔ nna kakraa bi a, wɔn nso gyina hɔ nna kakraa bi saa ara, efisɛ saa na Awurade ahyɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ.
20 And so it was, when the cloud was a few days upon the tabernacle; according to the commandment of the LORD they abode in their tents, and according to the commandment of the LORD they journeyed.
Ɛtɔ da bi a, omununkum no tena Ahyiae Ntamadan no so nna kakraa bi. Sɛ ɛba saa a, nnipa no nso tena nna kakraa bi. Na Awurade nhyɛ mu, wotu fii wɔn atenae.
21 And so it was, when the cloud abode from evening to the morning, and that the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed: whether it was by day or by night that the cloud was taken up, they journeyed.
Ɛtɔ da bi nso a, omununkum no tena anadwo na akɔ adekyee. Nanso sɛ ɛyɛ awia anaa anadwo na omununkum no ma ne ho so a, nnipa no tu fi atenae hɔ di akyi.
22 Or whether it was two days, or a month, or a year, that the cloud tarried upon the tabernacle, remaining above it, the children of Israel abode in their tents, and journeyed not: but when it was taken up, they journeyed.
Sɛ omununkum no ba Ahyiae Ntamadan no atifi na edi nnaanu, ɔsram anaa afe a, saa nna no ara so na Israelfo no hwɛ de tena hɔ. Nanso enya tu ara pɛ a, na wɔn nso atu.
23 At the commandment of the LORD they rested in the tents, and at the commandment of the LORD they journeyed: they kept the charge of the LORD, at the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
Eyi kyerɛ sɛ, wɔn nsrabɔ ne wɔn akwantu nyinaa gyina Awurade mmara a ɔhyɛ ma wɔn no so; na biribiara a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ wɔnyɛ no, wɔyɛe.
