Idisu 8
1 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
Then the LORD said to Moses,
2 “Elanema amane olelema. ‘E da gamali fesuale amo ilia baiga ligisisia, amo gamali ilia hadigi da midadi hadigima: ne, agoane bugima: ne sia: ma.’”
“Speak to Aaron and tell him: ‘When you set up the seven lamps, they are to light the area in front of the lampstand.’”
3 Elane da amo sia: nababeba: le, gamali ea ba: le gaidi amodili gamali ea baiga amoi ilia midadi amoga bugi.
And Aaron did so; he set up the lamps facing toward the front of the lampstand, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
4 Gadodili asili ea baiga, gamali bai da gouli amo ha: maga dabagala: i agoane ba: i. Bai Hina Gode da amo hamosu ilegei Mousesema olelei.
This is how the lampstand was constructed: it was made of hammered gold from its base to its blossoms, fashioned according to the pattern the LORD had shown Moses.
5 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
Again the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
6 “Dia Lifai dunu amo Isala: ili dunu eno amoga afafama. Amola ilia ledo doga: ma: ne agoane hamoma.
“Take the Levites from among the Israelites and make them ceremonially clean.
7 Ilia da: i hodo hinabo huluane waga: ma: ne amola abula huluane dodofema: ne sia: ma. Amasea, ilia da sema defele, ledo hamedei hamoi dagoi ba: mu.
This is what you must do to cleanse them: Sprinkle them with the water of purification. Have them shave their whole bodies and wash their clothes, and so purify themselves.
8 Amasea, ilia da bulamagau gawali waha debe amola Gala: ine Iasu (falaua amola olife susuligi gilisi) amo lama: ne sia: ma. Amola di bulamagau gawali eno Wadela: i Hou Gogolema: ne Olofoma: ne Iasu hamoma: ne lama.
Then have them take a young bull with its grain offering of fine flour mixed with oil, and you are to take a second young bull for a sin offering.
9 Amasea, Isala: ili dunu huluane gilisima: ne sia: ma. Amola Lifai dunu amo Na Abula Diasu midadi leloma: ne sia: ma.
Bring the Levites before the Tent of Meeting and assemble the whole congregation of Israel.
10 Isala: ili dunu huluane da ilia lobo Lifai dunu ilia dialuma da: iya ligisima: mu.
You are to present the Levites before the LORD and have the Israelites lay their hands upon them.
11 Amasea, Lifai dunu da Nama hahawane iasu, Na hawa: hamosu hamoma: ne, Elane da ili momogili gagale ilegema: mu.
Aaron is to present the Levites before the LORD as a wave offering from the sons of Israel, so that they may perform the service of the LORD.
12 Amasea, Lifai dunu da ilia lobo bulamagau aduna ela dialuma da: iya ligisimu. Ilia da bulamagau afae amo Wadela: i Hou Gogolema: ne Olofoma: ne Iasu hamoma: ne imunu amola eno da Wadela: i Hou Dabe Ima: ne Iasu hamoma: mu.
And the Levites are to lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and offer to the LORD one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, to make atonement for the Levites.
13 Dia Lifai dunu amo Nama noga: idafa fi hamoma: ne momogili gagale ilegema. Amola Elane amola ea mano ilima ouligima: ne ilegema.
You are to have the Levites stand before Aaron and his sons and then present them before the LORD as a wave offering.
14 Lifai dunu ilia da Na fidafa esaloma: ne, Isala: ili fi ilima mogima.
In this way you shall separate the Levites from the rest of the Israelites, and the Levites will belong to Me.
15 Di da Lifai dunu ledo hamedei esaloma: ne ilegei dagosea, ilia da Na Abula diasu amo ganodini hawa: hamomu defele ba: mu.
After you have cleansed them and presented them as a wave offering, they may come to serve at the Tent of Meeting.
16 Na da Lifai dunu amo Isala: ili mano magobo huluane ilia sogebi lama: ne ilegei dagoi. Ili da Na: fawane.
For the Levites have been wholly given to Me from among the sons of Israel. I have taken them for Myself in place of all who come first from the womb, the firstborn of all the sons of Israel.
17 Na da Idibidi fi ilia mano magobo huluane fane legeloba, Na da Isala: ili dunu fi amola ohe fi mano magobo huluane Na: fawane esaloma: ne ilegei dagoi.
For every firstborn male in Israel is Mine, both man and beast. I set them apart for Myself on the day I struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt.
18 Be wali Na da Isala: ili mano magobo mae lale, Lifai fi dunu huluane Na: fawane esaloma: ne ilegele laha.
But I have taken the Levites in place of all the firstborn among the sons of Israel.
19 Amola Isala: ili dunu ilia da Lifai dunu huluane amo Elane amola ea mano ilima ima: ne, Na da ilegesa. Ilia da Isala: ili dunu ilia hawa: hamosu Abula Diasu amo ganodini hamomu. Bai Isala: ili dunu eno da Hadigi Malei Sesei gadenene masea, ilia da gugunufinisi dagoi ba: sa: besa: le, agoane hamosa.”
And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and his sons from among the Israelites, to perform the service for the Israelites at the Tent of Meeting and to make atonement on their behalf, so that no plague will come against the Israelites when they approach the sanctuary.”
20 Amaiba: le, Mousese, Elane amola Isala: ili dunu huluane da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele, Lifai dunu momogili gagale ilegei.
So Moses, Aaron, and the whole congregation of Israel did with the Levites everything that the LORD had commanded Moses they should do.
21 Lifai dunu da ilia da: i hano ulalu, ilia abula dodofei. Amasea, Elane da ili Hina Godema iasu noga: i ima: ne, momogili gagale ilegei. E amola ledo hamedei hamoma: ne hou ilima hamoi.
The Levites purified themselves and washed their clothes, and Aaron presented them as a wave offering before the LORD. Aaron also made atonement for them to cleanse them.
22 Isala: ili dunu da hou huluane Hina Gode da Mousesema hamoma: ne sia: i, amo huluane Lifai dunuma hamoi. Amaiba: le, Lifai dunu da Elane amola ea mano ilia ouligisu hagudu amo Abula Diasu hawa: hamosu hamoma: ne defele ba: i.
After that, the Levites came to perform their service at the Tent of Meeting in the presence of Aaron and his sons. Thus they did with the Levites just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
23 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
And the LORD said to Moses,
24 “Lifai dunu da ode 25 baligisia, Na Abula Diasu ganodini hawa: hamoma: mu.
“This applies to the Levites: Men twenty-five years of age or older shall enter to perform the service in the work at the Tent of Meeting.
25 E da ode 50 gidigisia, ea hawa: hamosu fisima: mu.
But at the age of fifty, they must retire from performing the work and no longer serve.
26 Amo ode fa: no, e da ea Lifai sama amo Abula Diasu ganodini fidimu da defea, be hisu da hame hamomu. Di da Lifai dunu ilia hawa: hamosu amo defele ouligima.”
After that, they may assist their brothers in fulfilling their duties at the Tent of Meeting, but they themselves are not to do the work. This is how you are to assign responsibilities to the Levites.”
