< Idisu 8 >

1 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
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 unto Aaron, and say unto him: When thou lightest the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the candlestick.'
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 lighted the lamps thereof so as to give light in front of the candlestick, as the LORD 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.
And this was the work of the candlestick, beaten work of gold; unto the base thereof, and unto the flowers thereof, it was beaten work; according unto the pattern which the LORD had shown Moses, so he made the candlestick.
5 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
And the LORD spoke unto 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 children of Israel, and cleanse them.
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.
And thus shalt thou do unto them, to cleanse them: sprinkle the water of purification upon them, and let them cause a razor to pass over all their flesh, and let them wash their clothes, and cleanse 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 let them take a young bullock, and its meal-offering, fine flour mingled with oil, and another young bullock shalt thou take 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.
And thou shalt present the Levites before the tent of meeting; and thou shalt assemble the whole congregation of the children of Israel.
10 Isala: ili dunu huluane da ilia lobo Lifai dunu ilia dialuma da: iya ligisima: mu.
And thou shalt present the Levites before the LORD; and the children of Israel shall lay their hands upon the Levites.
11 Amasea, Lifai dunu da Nama hahawane iasu, Na hawa: hamosu hamoma: ne, Elane da ili momogili gagale ilegema: mu.
And Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD for a wave-offering from the children of Israel, that they may be to do 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 shall lay their hands upon the heads of the bullocks; and offer thou the one for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering, unto the LORD, 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.
And thou shalt set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them for a wave-offering unto the LORD.
14 Lifai dunu ilia da Na fidafa esaloma: ne, Isala: ili fi ilima mogima.
Thus shalt thou separate the Levites from among the children of Israel; and the Levites shall be Mine.
15 Di da Lifai dunu ledo hamedei esaloma: ne ilegei dagosea, ilia da Na Abula diasu amo ganodini hawa: hamomu defele ba: mu.
And after that shall the Levites go in to do the service of the tent of meeting; and thou shalt cleanse them, and offer them for a wave-offering.
16 Na da Lifai dunu amo Isala: ili mano magobo huluane ilia sogebi lama: ne ilegei dagoi. Ili da Na: fawane.
For they are wholly given unto Me from among the children of Israel; instead of all that openeth the womb, even the first-born of all the children of Israel, have I taken them unto Me.
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 all the first-born among the children of Israel are Mine, both man and beast; on the day that I smote all the first-born in the land of Egypt I sanctified them for Myself.
18 Be wali Na da Isala: ili mano magobo mae lale, Lifai fi dunu huluane Na: fawane esaloma: ne ilegele laha.
And I have taken the Levites instead of all the first-born among the children 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 — they are given to Aaron and to his sons from among the children of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel in the tent of meeting, and to make atonement for the children of Israel, that there be no plague among the children of Israel, through the children of Israel coming nigh unto 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.
Thus did Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the Levites; according unto all that the LORD commanded Moses touching the Levites, so did the children of Israel unto them.
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.
And the Levites purified themselves, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron offered them for a sacred gift before the LORD; and Aaron 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.
And after that went the Levites in to do their service in the tent of meeting before Aaron, and before his sons; as the LORD had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did they unto them.
23 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
24 “Lifai dunu da ode 25 baligisia, Na Abula Diasu ganodini hawa: hamoma: mu.
'This is that which pertaineth unto the Levites: from twenty and five years old and upward they shall go in to perform the service in the work of the tent of meeting;
25 E da ode 50 gidigisia, ea hawa: hamosu fisima: mu.
and from the age of fifty years they shall return from the service of the work, and shall serve no more;
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.”
but shall minister with their brethren in the tent of meeting, to keep the charge, but they shall do no manner of service. Thus shalt thou do unto the Levites touching their charges.'
