And thou shalt make the tabernacle in this manner: Thou shalt make ten curtains of fine twisted linen, and violet and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, diversified with embroidery.
2 Nsalu zonse zikhale zofanana. Mulitali mwake zikhale mamita khumi ndi atatu, mulifupi mamita awiri.

Thou shalt make loops of violet in the sides and tops of the curtains, that they may be joined one to another.

Five of which thou shalt couple by themselves, and the six others thou shalt couple one to another, so as to double the sixth curtain in the front of the roof.
10 Upange zokolowekamo 50 mʼmphepete mwa nsalu imodzi yotsirizira ya nsalu yoyamba yolumikiza ija. Upangenso zokolowekamo zina 50 mʼmphepete mwa nsalu yotsirizira ya nsalu inanso yolumikiza ija.
Thou shalt make also fifty loops in the edge of one curtain, that it may be joined with the other: and fifty loops in the edge of the other curtain, that it may be coupled with its fellow.
11 Kenaka upange ngowe 50 zamkuwa ndipo uzilowetse mu zokolowekazo. Ndiye uphatikize nsalu ziwirizo kuti tentiyo ikhale imodzi.
Thou shalt make also fifty buckles of brass, wherewith the loops may be joined, that of all there may be made one covering.

And that which shall remain of the curtains, that are prepared for the roof, to wit, one curtain that is over and above, with the half thereof thou shalt cover the back parts of the tabernacle.

And there shall hang down a cubit on the one side, and another on the other side, which is over and above in the length of the curtains, fencing both sides of the tabernacle.

Thou shalt make also the boards of the tabernacle standing upright of setim wood.
16 Feremu iliyonse ikhale yotalika mamita anayi ndipo mulifupi mwake mukhale masentimita 69.
Let every one of them be ten cubits in length, and in breadth on cubit and a half.

Of which twenty shall be in the south side southward.
19 Ndipo upange matsinde 40 asiliva ndipo uwayike pansi pa maferemuwo. Pansi pa feremu iliyonse pakhale matsinde awiri ogwiriziza zolumikizira ziwiri zija.
For which thou shalt cast forty sockets of silver, that under every board may be put two sockets at the two corners.
20 Ndipo mbali yakumpoto ya chihemacho upangenso maferemu makumi awiri.

23 Ndipo upangenso maferemu awiri a pa ngodya yakumbuyo kwenikweni kwa tenti.
And again other two which shall be erected in the corners at the back of the tabernacle.
24 Pa ngodya ziwirizi pakhale maferemu awiri, kuyambira pansi mpaka pamwamba ndipo alumikizidwe pa ngowe imodzi. Maferemu onse akhale ofanana.
And they shall be joined together from beneath unto the top, and one joint shall hold them all. The like joining shall be observed for the two boards also that are to be put in the corners.

26 “Upange mitanda ya matabwa amtengo wa mkesha: mitanda isanu ikhale ya maferemu a mbali imodzi ya chihema,
Thou shalt make also five bars of setim wood, to hold together the boards on one side of the tabernacle.
27 mitanda isanu inanso ikhale ya maferemu a mbali inayo. Pakhalenso mitanda ina isanu ya mbali yakumadzulo, kumapeto kwenikweni kwa chihema.
And five others on the other side, and as many at the west side:
28 Mtanda wapakati pa maferemuwo uchokere pa maferemu a mbali ina mpaka mbali inanso.
And they shall be put along by the midst of the boards from one end to the other.
29 Maferemuwo uwakute ndi golide ndiponso upange mphete zagolide zogwiriziza mitandayo. Ndipo mitandayonso uyikute ndi golide.
The boards also themselves thou shalt overlay with gold, and shall cast rings of gold to be set upon them, for places for the bars to hold together boardwork: which bars thou shalt cover with plates of gold.

And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the pattern that was shewn thee in the mount.
31 “Upange nsalu yokhala ndi mtundu wamtambo, wapepo ndi ofiira ndipo nsaluyo ikhale yolukidwa bwino, yofewa ndi yosalala. Ndipo anthu aluso apetepo zithunzi za Akerubi.
Thou shalt make also a veil of violet and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine twisted linen, wrought with embroidered work, and goodly variety:
32 Nsaluyo uyikoloweke pa nsanamira zinayi zamtengo wa mkesha zokutidwa ndi golide zomwe zili ndi ngowe zagolide, zomwe zayima pa matsinde asiliva anayi.
And thou shalt hang it up before four pillars of setim wood, which themselves also shall be overlaid with gold, and shall have heads of gold, but sockets of silver.

And the veils shall be hanged on with rings, and within it thou shalt put the ark of the testimony, and the sanctuary, and the holy of holies shall be divided with it.

Thou shalt make also a hanging in the entrance of the tabernacle of violet and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine twisted linen with embroidered work.
