< Idisu 8 >

1 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
The LORD spoke to 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 to Aaron, and tell him, ‘When you light the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lamp stand.’”
3 Elane da amo sia: nababeba: le, gamali ea ba: le gaidi amodili gamali ea baiga amoi ilia midadi amoga bugi.
Aaron did so. He lit its lamps to light the area in front of the lamp stand, 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.
This was the workmanship of the lamp stand, beaten work of gold. From its base to its flowers, it was beaten work. He made the lamp stand according to the pattern which the LORD had shown Moses.
5 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
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 amongst 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.
You shall do this to them to cleanse them: sprinkle the water of cleansing on them, let them shave their whole bodies with a razor, 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 bull and its meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil; and another young bull you shall 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.
You shall present the Levites before the Tent of Meeting. You shall 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.
You shall present the Levites before the LORD. The children of Israel shall lay their hands on 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 on the behalf of the children of Israel, that it may be theirs 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.
“The Levites shall lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and you shall offer the one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering to 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.
You shall set the Levites before Aaron and before his sons, and offer them as a wave offering to the LORD.
14 Lifai dunu ilia da Na fidafa esaloma: ne, Isala: ili fi ilima mogima.
Thus you shall separate the Levites from amongst 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.
“After that, the Levites shall go in to do the service of the Tent of Meeting. You shall cleanse them, and offer them as 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 to me from amongst the children of Israel; instead of all who open the womb, even the firstborn of all the children of Israel, I have taken them to 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 firstborn amongst the children of Israel are mine, both man and animal. On the day that I struck all the firstborn 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.
I have taken the Levites instead of all the firstborn amongst 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.”
I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons from amongst 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, so that there will be no plague amongst the children of Israel when the children of Israel come near to 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.
Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel did so to the Levites. According to all that the LORD commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so the children of Israel did to 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.
The Levites purified themselves from sin, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron offered them for a wave offering 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.
After that, the Levites went 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 they did to them.
23 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
24 “Lifai dunu da ode 25 baligisia, Na Abula Diasu ganodini hawa: hamoma: mu.
“This is what is assigned to the Levites: from twenty-five years old and upward they shall go in to wait on 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 retire from doing 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 assist their brothers in the Tent of Meeting, to perform the duty, and shall perform no service. This is how you shall have the Levites do their duties.”
