خرُوج 38

١ 1 وَصَنَعَ مَذْبَحَ الْمُحْرَقَةِ مِنْ خَشَبِ السَّنْطِ، فَكَانَ سَطْحُهُ مُرَبَّعَ الشَّكْلِ، طُولُهُ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)، وَعَرْضُهُ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)، وَارْتِفَاعُهُ ثَلاثَةُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرٍ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ).

[Several men helped] Bezalel to make the altar for burning sacrifices. They made it from acacia wood. It was square, (7-1/2 feet/2.2 meters) on each side, and it was (4-1/2 feet/1.3 meters) high.

٢ 2 وَصَنَعَ لَهُ قُرُوناً، أَقَامَهَا عَلَى زَوَايَاهُ الأَرْبَعِ، مَخْرُوطَةً مِنْ ذَاتِ خَشَبِهِ. وَغَشَّاهُ بِنُحَاسٍ.

They made [a projection that looked like] a horn on each of the top corners. The projections were carved from the same block of wood that the altar [was made of]. They covered the whole altar with bronze.

٣ 3 وَكَذَلِكَ طَرَقَ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ جَمِيعَ آنِيَةِ الْمَذْبَحِ: الْقُدُورَ وَالْمَجَارِفَ وَالأَحْوَاضَ وَالْمَنَاشِلَ وَالْمَجَامِرَ.

They made the pans in which to put the greasy ashes [from the animal sacrifices]. They also made the shovels for cleaning out the ashes. They made the basins and forks for turning the meat as it cooked, and buckets for carrying hot coals/ashes. All of those things were made from bronze.

٤ 4 وَصَنَعَ لِلْمَذْبَحِ شَبَكَةً نُحَاسِيَّةً، وَضَعَهَا تَحْتَ حَافَةِ الْمَذْبَحِ مِنْ أَسْفَلُ، بِحَيْثُ تَصِلُ إِلَى مُنْتَصَفِهِ.

They also made a bronze grating to hold the wood and burning coals. They put the grating under the rim that went around the altar. [They] made it so that it was [inside the altar], halfway down.

٥ 5 وَسَكَبَ أَرْبَعَ حَلَقَاتٍ نُحَاسِيَّةً عَلَى أَطْرَافِ الشَّبَكَةِ النُّحَاسِيَّةِ لإِدْخَالِ الْعَصَوَيْنِ فِيهَا.

They made bronze rings in which to put the poles [for carrying the altar], and fastened one of them to each of the corners of the altar.

٦ 6 وَصَنَعَ الْعَصَوَيْنِ مِنْ خَشَبِ السَّنْطِ المُغَشَّى بِالنُّحَاسِ.

They made the poles from acacia wood and covered them with bronze.

٧ 7 وَأَدْخَلَ الْعَصَوَيْنِ فِي الْحَلَقَاتِ الْمُثَبَّتَةِ عَلَى جَانِبَيِ الْمَذْبَحِ، لِيُحْمَلَ بِهِمَا. وَكَانَ الْمَذْبَحُ مُجَوَّفاً مَصْنُوعاً مِنْ أَلْوَاحٍ.

They put the poles through the rings on each side of the altar. The poles were for carrying the altar.

٨ 8 وَصَنَعَ حَوْضَ الاغْتِسَالِ وَقَاعِدَتَهُ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ. صَهَرَهَا مِنَ الْمَرَايَا النُّحَاسِيَّةِ الَّتِي تَبَرَّعَتْ بِها النِّسَاءُ اللَّوَاتِي احْتَشَدْنَ عِنْدَ مَدْخَلِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ.

The altar was [hollow] like an empty box. It was made from boards [of acacia wood]. They made/cast the washbasin and its base from bronze. The bronze was from the mirrors that belonged to the women who worked at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.

٩ 9 وَأَحَاطَ بَصَلْئِيلُ سَاحَةَ الْمَسْكَنِ مِنْ جِهَةِ الْجَنُوبِ بِسَتَائِرَ مِنْ كَتَّانٍ مَبْرُومٍ، طُولُهَا مِئَةُ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسِينَ مِتْراً).

[Around the Sacred Tent] Bezalel and his helpers made a courtyard. To form the courtyard, they made curtains of fine white linen. On the south side, the curtain was (150 feet/46 meters) long.

١٠ 10 لَهَا عِشْرُونَ عَمُوداً، ذَاتُ عِشْرِينَ قَاعِدَةً نُحَاسِيَّةً بِخَطَاطِيفَ وَقُضْبَانٍ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ.

[To hang the curtain], they made 20 bronze posts and 20 bronze bases, [one for under each post]. [To fasten the curtains to] the posts, they made silver hooks, and [they made metal] rods [covered with] silver.

١١ 11 وَكَذَلِكَ جَعَلَ طُولَ سَتَائِرِ الْجَانِبِ الشِّمَالِيِّ مِئَةَ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسِينَ مِتْراً) وَأَعْمِدَتَهُ عِشْرِينَ عَمُوداً ذَاتَ عِشْرِينَ قَاعِدَةً نُحَاسِيَّةً، بِخَطَاطِيفَ وَقُضْبَانٍ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ.

They made the same kind of curtains, posts, bases, and hooks for the north side of the courtyard.

١٢ 12 أَمَّا الْجَانِبُ الْغَرْبِيُّ فَقَدْ كَانَ طُولُ سَتَائِرِهِ خَمْسِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً) مُعَلَّقَةً بَخَطَاطِيفَ وَقُضْبَانٍ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ، عَلَى أَعْمِدَةٍ ذَاتِ عَشْرِ قَوَاعِدَ.

On the west side [of the courtyard], they made a curtain (75 feet/23 meters) long. They also made ten posts on which to hang the curtains, and ten bases, with silver hooks and [metal] rods [covered with] silver.

١٣ 13 وَكَذَلِكَ الْجَانِبُ الشَّرْقِيُّ فَقَدْ كَانَ طُولُهُ خَمْسِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً).

On the east side, [where the entrance is], the courtyard was (75 feet/23 meters) wide.

١٤ 14 فَكَانَ طُولُ السَّتَائِرِ عَلَى الْجَانِبِ الْجَنُوبِيِّ لِمَدْخَلِ السَّاحَةِ خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ سَبْعةِ أَمْتَارٍ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)، مُعَلَّقَةً عَلَى ثَلاثَةِ أَعْمِدَةٍ ذَاتِ ثَلاثِ قَوَاعِدَ.

On each side of the entrance, they made a curtain (22-1/2 feet/6.6 meters) wide. On each side they [were hung from] three posts, and one base was under each post.

١٥ 15 أَمَّا طُولُ السَّتَائِرِ عَلَى الْجَانِبِ الآخَرِ (أَيِ الشِّمَالِيِّ) لِمَدْخَلِ السَّاحَةِ فَكَانَ خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ سَبْعَةِ أَمْتَارٍ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)، مُعَلَّقَةً عَلَى ثَلاثَةِ أَعْمِدَةٍ ذَاتِ ثَلاثِ قَوَاعِدَ.

١٦ 16 وَكَانَتْ جَمِيعُ السَّتَائِرِ الْمُحِيطَةِ بِالسَّاحَةِ مَنْسُوجَةً مِنْ كَتَّانٍ نَقِيٍّ مَبْرُومٍ.

All the curtains around the courtyard were made from fine white linen.

١٧ 17 وَصَنَعَ قَوَاعِدَ الأَعْمِدَةِ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ. أَمَّا الْمَشَابِكُ وَالْقُضْبَانُ فَكَانَتْ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ، وَتِيجَانُ الأَعْمِدَةِ مُغَطَّاةً بِالْفِضَّةِ. وَجَمِيعُ أَعْمِدَةِ السَّاحَةِ مَوْصُولَةٌ بِقُضْبَانٍ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ.

All the posts around the courtyard were made of bronze, but the tops were covered with silver. The posts were connected with [metal] rods [covered with] silver. The clasps/fasteners and hooks were made of silver.

١٨ 18 وَكَانَ عَرْضُ سِتَارِ مَدْخَلِ سَاحَةِ الْمَسْكَنِ عِشْرِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ عَشَرَةِ أَمْتَارٍ) وَارْتِفَاعُهُ خَمْسَ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)، كَارْتِفَاعِ السَّاحَةِ، وَهُوَ مَصْنُوعٌ مِنْ كَتَّانٍ ذِي أَلْوَانٍ زَرْقَاءَ وَبَنَفَسَجِيَّةٍ وَحَمْرَاءَ مِنْ صِنَاعَةِ حَائِكٍ مَاهِرٍ.

For the entrance of the courtyard, they made a curtain from fine white linen, and a skilled weaver embroidered it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread. The curtain was (30 feet/9 meters) long and (7-1/2 feet/2.3 meters) high, just like the other curtains around the courtyard.

١٩ 19 وَعَلَّقَهُ بِخَطَاطِيفَ فضِّيَّةٍ عَلَى أَرْبَعَةِ أَعْمِدَةٍ فِضِّيَّةٍ فَوْقَ أَرْبَعِ قَوَاعِدَ نُحَاسِيَّةٍ. وَكَانَتْ تِيجَانُ الأَعْمِدَةِ وَقُضْبَانُهَا مِنْ فِضَّةٍ.

All the curtains were made of fine white linen. They were supported by four posts, and [under each post] was a base made of bronze. All the posts around the courtyard were connected with [metal] rods [covered with] silver. The clasps/fasteners were made of silver, and the tops of the posts were covered with silver.

٢٠ 20 أَمَّا جَمِيعُ أَوْتَادِ الْخَيْمَةِ والسَّاحَةِ الْمُحِيطَةِ بِها، فَقَدْ كَانَتْ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ.

All the tent pegs to support the Sacred Tent and the curtains around the courtyard were made of bronze.

٢١ 21 وَمَا يَلِي الْمَقَادِيرُ الْمُسْتَخْدَمَةُ فِي بِنَاءِ مَسْكَنِ الشَّهَادَةِ، الَّتِي تَمَّ حِسَابُهَا بِمُقْتَضَى أَمْرِ مُوسَى، بِإِشْرَافِ اللّاوِيِّينَ عَلَى يَدِ إِيثَامَارَ بْنِ هَرُونَ الْكَاهِنِ.

Here is a list of the amounts of metal used to make the Sacred Tent. Moses/I told [some men from] the tribe of Levi to [count all the materials used and] write down the amounts. Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest, supervised those men.

٢٢ 22 وَكَانَ بَصَلْئِيلُ بْنُ أُورِي حَفِيدُ حُورٍ مِنْ سِبْطِ يَهُوذَا، هُوَ الَّذِي صَنَعَ كُلَّ مَا أَمَرَ بِهِ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى.

Bezalel the son of Uri and grandson of Hur made all the things that Yahweh commanded Moses/me to be made.

٢٣ 23 يُعَاوِنُهُ أَهُولِيآبُ بْنُ أَخِيسَامَاكَ مِنْ سِبْطِ دَانٍ، الَّذِي بَرَعَ فِي النَّقْشِ وَالتَّوْشِيَةِ وَالتَّطْرِيزِ بِالأَلْوَانِ الزَّرْقَاءِ وَالْبَنَفْسَجِيَّةِ وَالْحَمْرَاءِ وَخُيُوطِ الكَتَّانِ الْبَيْضَاءِ.

Bezalel’s helper was Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. Oholiab was a skilled engraver who made artistic things. He made fine white linen, and he embroidered designs using blue, purple, and red yarn/thread. He also made other cloth.

٢٤ 24 كَانَ وَزْنُ الذَّهَبِ الْمُسْتَخْدَمِ فِي جَمِيعِ عَمَلِ الْمَسْكَنِ مِنَ التَّبَرُّعَاتِ تِسْعاً وَعِشْرِينَ وَزْنَةً وَسَبْعَ مِئَةٍ وَثَلاثِينَ شَاقِلاً (نَحْوَ أَلْفٍ وَثَلاثَةٍ وَخَمْسِينَ كِيلُو جِرَاماً) طِبْقاً لِمَوازِينِ الْمَقْدِسِ.

All the gold that was used to make the Sacred Tent weighed (2,195 pounds/1,000 kg.). They used the official standard when they weighed the gold.

٢٥ 25 أَمَّا وَزْنُ الْفِضَّةِ الْمُجْبَاةِ مِنَ الْمَعْدُودِينَ مِنَ الشَّعْبِ، فَكَانَ مِئَةَ وَزْنَةٍ وَأَلْفاً وَسَبْعَ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسَةٍ وَسَبْعِينَ شَاقِلاً (نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ آلافٍ وَسِتِّ مِئَةٍ وَوَاحِدٍ وَعِشْرِينَ كِيلُو جِرَاماً) طِبْقاً لِمَوازِينِ الْمَقْدِسِ.

All the silver that the people contributed when the leaders (took the census/counted the men) weighed (7,500 pounds/3,400 kg.). They also used the official standard when they weighed the silver.

٢٦ 26 إِذْ كَانَ يُفْرَضُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَخْصٍ مِنَ الْمَعْدُودِينَ بَلَغَ مِنَ الْعُمْرِ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً وَمَا فَوْقُ، نِصْفُ شَاقِلٍ (نَحْوَ سِتَّةِ جِرَامَاتٍ) طِبْقاً لِمَوَازِينِ الْمَقْدِسِ. وَكَانَ عَدَدُ الْمَعْدُودِينَ نَحْوَ سِتِّ مِئَةٍ وَثَلاثَةِ آلافِ رَجُلٍ وَخَمْسِ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسِينَ رَجُلاً

All the men who were at least 20 years old were counted, and they each paid the required amount. That was a total of 603,550 men.

٢٧ 27 وَكَانَ وَزْنُ الفِضَّةِ الْمُسْتَهْلَكَةِ فِي صَبِّ قَوَاعِدِ الْمَسْكَنِ وَالسَّتَائِرِ الْمِئَةِ مِئَةَ وَزْنَةٍ (نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ آلافٍ وَسِتِّ مِئَةِ كِيلُو جِرَامٍ)، أَيْ وَزْنَةً وَاحِدَةً (نَحْوَ سِتَّةٍ وَثَلاثِينَ كِيلُو جِرَاماً) لِكُلِّ قَاعِدَةٍ.

They used (75 pounds/34 kg.) of silver for making/casting each of the 100 bases to [put under the posts to support] the curtains of the Sacred Tent.

٢٨ 28 أَمَّا مَا فَضَلَ مِنَ الفِضَّةِ البَالِغَةِ أَلْفاً وَسَبْع مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسَةً وَسَبْعِينَ شاقِلاً (نَحْوَ وَاحِدٍ وَعِشْرِينَ كِيلُو جِرَاماً) فَقَدِ اسْتُخْدِمَتْ فِي صُنْعِ خَطَاطِيفِ الأَعْمِدَةِ وَالْقُضْبَانِ وَتَغْشِيَةِ تِيجَانِ الأَعْمِدَةِ.

Bezalel [and his helpers] used the (50 pounds/30 kg.) of silver that was not used for the bases to make the rods and the hooks for the posts, and to cover the tops of the posts.

٢٩ 29 وَكَانَ وَزْنُ النُّحَاسِ الَّذِي تَبَرَّعَ بِهِ الشَّعْبُ سَبْعِينَ وَزْنَةً وَأَلْفَيْنِ وَأَرْبَعَ مِئَةِ شَاقِلٍ (نَحْوَ أَلْفَيْنِ وَخَمْسِ مِئَةِ وَتِسْعَةٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ كيلُو جِرَاماً).

The bronze that the people contributed weighed (5,310 pounds/2,425 kg.).

٣٠ 30 وَمِنْهُ صَبَّ قَواعِدَ بَابِ خَيْمَةِ الْاجْتِمَاعِ وَمَذْبَحَ النُّحَاسِ وَشَبَكَتَهُ النُّحَاسِيَّةَ وَجَمِيعَ أَوَانِيهِ.

With the bronze, Bezalel and his helpers made the bases for under the posts at the entrance of the Sacred Tent. They also made the altar for burning sacrifices, the grating for it and the tools used with it,

٣١ 31 وَقَوَاعِدَ السَّاحَةِ الْمُحِيطَةِ بِالْخَيْمَةِ، وَقَوَاعِدَ مَدْخَلِهَا وَجَمِيعَ أَوْتَادِ الْمَسْكَنِ وَالدَّارِ الْمُحِيطَةِ بِهِ.

the bases for the posts [that supported the curtains] that surrounded the courtyard and the bases for the entrance to the courtyard, and the pegs for the Sacred Tent and for [the curtains around] the courtyard.
