28 Ame siawoe de asi nubabla la te ɖe dukɔ blibo la nu, elabena dukɔmeviwo, nunɔlawo, Levitɔwo, agbonudzɔlawo, hadzilawo, gbedoxɔmedɔwɔlawo kple ame bubuawo katã, ame siwo srɔ̃wo, viŋutsuwo, vinyɔnuwo, ame siwo tsi ate ŋu ase nu gɔme la, ɖe wo ɖokuiwo ɖe aga tso trɔ̃subɔla siwo le anyigba la dzi gbɔ ale be woasubɔ Mawu.
And the rest of the people, the priests, the Levites, the porters, the singers, the Nethinims, and all they that had separated themselves from the people of the lands unto the law of God, their wives, their sons, and their daughters, every one having knowledge, and having understanding;
29 Ame siawo katã wɔ ɖeka kple Israelvi bubumewo, eye woɖe adzɔgbe be Mawu ƒe fiƒode nava wo dzi ne womewɔ Yehowa ƒe Se siwo wòde na wo to Mose, Mawu ƒe dɔla la dzi o, eye woɖe adzɔgbe be woalé Yehowa, woƒe Aƒetɔ la ƒe Sewo kple ɖoɖowo katã me ɖe asi.
They clave to their brethren, their nobles, and entered into a curse, and into an oath, to walk in God's law, which was given by Moses the servant of God, and to observe and do all the commandments of the LORD our Lord, and his judgments and his statutes;
30 “Míelɔ̃ ɖe edzi hã be míaɖe mɔ na mía vinyɔnuwo woaɖe amedzrowo o, eye nenema ke míaɖe mɔ mía viŋutsuwo hã naɖe wo vinyɔnuwo o.
And that we would not give our daughters unto the people of the land, not take their daughters for our sons:
31 “Míelɔ̃ ɖe edzi be ne trɔ̃subɔla siwo le anyigba la dzi anɔ adzɔnu kple agblemenuku alo nu bubu aɖe dzram le Dzudzɔgbe alo ŋkeke kɔkɔe bubu aɖe dzi la, míagbe eƒeƒle.

And if the people of the land bring ware or any victuals on the sabbath day to sell, that we would not buy it of them on the sabbath, or on the holy day: and that we would leave the seventh year, and the exaction of every debt.
32 “Míelɔ̃ ɖe edzi be míadzɔ nu ƒe sia ƒe na gbedoxɔ la, ale be ga nasɔ gbɔ ɣe sia ɣi hena mía Mawu la ƒe gbedoxɔ la dzikpɔkpɔ,
Also we made ordinances for us, to charge ourselves yearly with the third part of a shekel for the service of the house of our God;
33 elabena míehiã nu tɔxɛwo na Ŋkumeɖobolo, nuɖuvɔsawo kple numevɔsawo na Dzudzɔgbewo, Ɣleti yeye ƒe ŋkekenyuiwo kple Ŋkekenyui siwo míeɖuna ƒe sia ƒe, na vɔsa kɔkɔewo, na avuléle ɖe Israel nu kple dɔwɔwɔ le gbedoxɔ la me.
For the showbread, and for the continual food offering, and for the continual burnt offering, of the sabbaths, of the new moons, for the set feasts, and for the holy things, and for the sin offerings to make an atonement for Israel, and for all the work of the house of our God.
34 “Míada akɔ be míanya ƒe sia ƒe ƒe ɣeyiɣi si dzi nunɔlawo, Levitɔwo kple kplɔlawo ƒe ƒometɔwo ana nake si ŋu dɔ woawɔ le Yehowa, mía Mawu la ƒe vɔsamlekpui dzi abe ale si woŋlɔe ɖe Se la me ene.
And we cast the lots among the priests, the Levites, and the people, for the wood offering, to bring it into the house of our God, after the houses of our fathers, at times appointed year by year, to burn upon the altar of the LORD our God, as it is written in the law:
35 “Míelɔ̃ ɖe edzi hã be míatsɔ míaƒe agblemenuku ɖe sia ɖe ƒe gbãtɔ, eɖanye nu si ɖona le to me alo tsena ɖe kutsetsetiwo kple amitiwo dzi o, ayi Yehowa ƒe aƒe me.
And to bring the first-fruits of our ground, and the first-fruits of all fruit of all trees, year by year, unto the house of the LORD:
36 “Abe ale si woŋlɔe ɖe Se la me ene la, míelɔ̃ ɖe edzi be míatsɔ míaƒe viŋutsu tsitsitɔwo kple míaƒe nyiwo, alẽwo kple gbɔ̃wo ƒe ŋgɔgbeviwo ana Yehowa. Míatsɔ wo na nunɔla siwo le subɔsubɔdɔ wɔm le gbedoxɔ la me.
Also the firstborn of our sons, and of our cattle, as it is written in the law, and the firstlings of our herds and of our flocks, to bring to the house of our God, unto the priests that minister in the house of our God:
37 “Kpe ɖe esiawo ŋu la, woatsɔ nuawo adzra ɖo ɖe míaƒe Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la me. Nu siawoe nye míaƒe bli kple agblemenuku siwo ɖi bli la ƒe nyuitɔwo, míaƒe nudzɔdzɔwo, míaƒe kutsetse gbãtɔwo kple míaƒe wain yeye kple ami ƒe gbãtɔwo. Míedo ŋugbe be, míatsɔ míaƒe agblemenuku ɖe sia ɖe ƒe ewolia ɖeka na Levitɔwo, ame siwo ƒe dɔ wònye be woaxɔ nu ewoliawo ƒe ɖekawo le ame siwo le du suewo kple kɔƒewo me la si.
And that we should bring the first-fruits of our dough, and our offerings, and the fruit of all manner of trees, of wine and of oil, unto the priests, to the chambers of the house of our God; and the tithes of our ground unto the Levites, that the same Levites might have the tithes in all the cities of our tillage.
38 Nunɔla Aron ƒe dzidzimevi ɖeka anɔ Levitɔwo gbɔ ne wole nuwo ƒe ewoliawo xɔm, eye Levitɔwo atsɔ nu ewolia si woxɔ la ƒe ewolia ayi gbedoxɔ me, adzra ɖo ɖe nudzraɖoƒe la.
And the priest the son of Aaron shall be with the Levites, when the Levites take tithes: and the Levites shall bring up the tithe of the tithes unto the house of our God, to the chambers, into the treasure house.
39 Le Se la nu la, ele be Israelviwo kple Levitɔwo natsɔ woƒe nunana siwo nye bli kple bubuawo, wain yeye kple ami la, ayi gbedoxɔ la me, eye woatsɔ wo ade kɔkɔeƒe ƒe nuwo me hena nunɔla siwo le subɔsubɔ wɔm kple agbonudzɔlawo kple hadzilawo ƒe ŋu dɔ wɔwɔ. “Ale mí katã míelɔ̃ ɖe edzi be míagblẽ míaƒe Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la ɖi o.”
For the children of Israel and the children of Levi shall bring the offering of the corn, of the new wine, and the oil, unto the chambers, where are the vessels of the sanctuary, and the priests that minister, and the porters, and the singers: and we will not forsake the house of our God.
