Thatha amatshe amabili ohlobo lwe-onikisi udwebele kuwo amabizo amadodana ka-Israyeli
10 Mayina asanu ndi limodzi akhale pa mwala umodzi, ndipo mayina asanu ndi limodzi pa mwala winawo motsata mabadwidwe awo.

13 Upange zoyikamo za maluwa agolide,
Yenza iziceciso zegolide
14 ndiponso maunyolo awiri a golide wabwino kwambiri, wopetedwa ngati zingwe ndipo uwalumikize ku zoyikamozo.

“Uzakwenza isembatho sesifuba sokwahlulela, senziwe ngumuntu oleminwe. Usenze njengesembatho semahlombe: ngelembu eliphothwe kuhle ngentambo eligolide, eluhlaza, eyibubende kanye lebomvu.
16 Kutalika kwake kukhale kofanana mbali zonse, mulitali masentimita 23, mulifupi masentimita 23, ndipo chikhale chopinda pawiri.
Kufanele silingane inxa zonke, isandla ubude lesandla ububanzi, sigoqwe saphindwa kabili.
17 Uyikepo mizere inayi ya miyala yokongola kwambiri. Mzere woyamba ukhale ndi miyala ya rubi, topazi ndi berili.
Ubusuthungela kuso imizila emine yamatshe aligugu. Emzileni wakuqala kuzakuba lerubhi, ithophazi kanye lebheriyeli,
18 Mzere wachiwiri pakhale miyala ya emeradi, safiro ndi dayimondi;

22 “Upange timaunyolo tagolide wabwino kwambiri ta pa chovala chapachifuwa, topota ngati chingwe.
Isembatho sesifubeni selukelwe amaketane ngegolide elicolekileyo kube njengegoda.
23 Upangenso mphete ziwiri zagolide ndipo uzimangirire pa ngodya ziwiri za pa chovala chapachifuwa.

24 Umangirire timaunyolo tiwiri tagolide tija pa mphete za pa ngodya pa chovala chapachifuwacho.
Bophela amaketane amabili egolide emasongweni asemagumbini esembatho sesifubeni,
25 Ndipo mbali ina ya timaunyoloto umangirire pa zoyikapo zake ziwiri zija ndi kulumikiza pa tinsalu takutsogolo kwa mapewa a efodi.
kuthi ngapha acina khona abotshelwe ezicecisweni ezimbili, liwahlanganise eziqeni zemahlombe phambili kwesembatho semahlombe.
26 Upangenso mphete ziwiri zagolide, ndipo uzilumikize ku ngodya ziwiri zamʼmunsi mwa chovala chapachifuwa, champhepete mwake, mʼkati pafupi ndi efodi ija.
Yenza amasongo amabili egolide uwabophele kwamanye amagumbi amabili esembatho sesifubeni ngaphakathi komphetho phansi kwesembatho semahlombe.
27 Upangenso mphete zina ziwiri zagolide ndipo uzilumikize kumunsi kwa tinsalu takutsogolo kwa efodi, pafupi ndi msoko, pamwamba pangʼono pa lamba wamʼchiwuno wa efodi.
Yenza amanye amasongo egolide amabili ubusuwabophela ngaphansi kweziqa zemahlombe phambi kwesembatho semahlombe, eduze komphetho ngaphezudlwana kwebhanti lasekhalweni lwesembatho semahlombe.
28 Tsono umangirire mphete za pa chovala chapachifuwa zija ku mphete za efodi ndi chingwe chamtundu wa mtambo, kulumikiza lamba ndi chovala chapachifuwacho kuti chovala chapachifuwacho chisalekane ndi efodi.
Amasongo esembatho sesifubeni kumele abotshaniswe lamasongo esembatho semahlombe ngentambo eluhlaza, kusihlanganisa lebhanti lasokhalweni, ukwenzela ukuthi isembatho sesifubeni singatsheleli sehlukane lesembatho semahlombe.
29 “Pamene Aaroni akulowa kumalo opatulika azivala chovala chapachifuwa cha zoweruzira chija chimene chalembedwa mayina a ana a Israeli kuti Yehova awakumbukire nthawi zonse.
Kuzakuthi lapho u-Aroni engena Endaweni Engcwele, agqize phezu kwenhliziyo yakhe isembatho sesifubeni sokwahlulela esilamabizo amadodana ka-Israyeli kube yisikhumbuzo esiqhubekayo phambi kukaThixo.
30 Ndiponso uyike Urimu ndi Tumimu mu chovala chapachifuwa cha zoweruziracho, kuti zikhale pamtima pa Aaroni. Choncho Aaroniyo adzakhala akutenga nthawi zonse zida zomuthandizira kuweruza ana a Israeli pamene adzafika pamaso pa Yehova.
Faka njalo i-Urimi kanye leThumimi esambathweni sesifubeni, ukuze ziqondane laphezu kwenhliziyo ka-Aroni loba kunini engena endaweni kaThixo. Ngalokho u-Aroni uzabe ethwele amandla okunquma izinqumo kwabako-Israyeli phezu kwenhliziyo yakhe phambi kukaThixo.”
31 “Uyipangire efodiyo mkanjo wamtundu wa mtambo.
“Yenza isigqoko sesembatho semahlombe ngelembu eliluhlaza kuphela,
32 Mkanjowo ukhala ndi malo opisapo mutu pakati pakepo. Pa chibowopo pakhale chibandi chosokedwa mochita ngati kuluka monga muja akhalira malaya kuti chibowocho chilimbe, chisangʼambike.
kube lesikhala sokungenisa ikhanda phakathi laphakathi. Kuzakuba lomphetho onjengebheqe othungwe walandelisela isikhala lesi ukuze isembatho singadabuki.
33 Pa mpendero wamʼmunsi wa mkanjowo, upange mphonje zokhala ngati makangadza za nsalu yamtundu wa mtambo, yapepo ndi yofiira zokhala ndi maberu agolide pakati pake.
Wenze emphethweni wesembatho amaphomegranathi ngentambo eluhlaza, eyibubende kanye lebomvu, uwugabanise lamabhera egolide.
34 Choncho pazikhala mphonje imodzi kenaka belu limodzi, kuzungulira mpendero wa mkanjo wonse.
Amabhera egolide kumele agabane lamaphomegranathi emphethweni wesembatho.
35 Aaroni azivala mkanjowo pamene akutumikira ngati wansembe. Kulira kwa maberu kuzimveka pamene akulowa mʼmalo opatulika pamaso pa Yehova ndiponso pamene akutuluka, kuti asafe.
U-Aroni kufanele asembathe nxa esenza umsebenzi wokukhonza. Umsindo wamabhera uyabe uzwakala lapho engena eNdaweni eNgcwele phambi kukaThixo lalapho ephuma, ukuze angafi.
36 “Upange duwa lagolide wabwino kwambiri kukhala ngati chidindo ndipo uzokotepo mawu akuti, Cohoperekedwa kwa Yehova.
Yenza icence legolide elicolekileyo udwebe, uloba kulo njengombazi wamatshe udwebela uphawu oluthi: Ubungcwele kabube kuThixo.
37 Ulimange ndi chingwe cha nsalu yamtundu wa mtambo pa nduwira ya Aaroni, ndipo duwalo likhale kutsogolo kwa nduwirayo.
Ulibophele eqhiyeni ngentambo eluhlaza libe phambi kweqhiye.

39 “Uluke mwinjiro wa nsalu yofewa yosalala ndiponso upange nduwira ya nsalu yofewa yosalala. Lamba wake akhale wolukidwa bwino ndi munthu waluso.
Thunga ibhatshi ngelembu elicolekileyo kanye leqhiye yelembu elicolekileyo, elihle. Ibhanti lokhalo kumele lenziwe ngumbalazi ngokuthunga.
40 Upangirenso ana a Aaroni mwinjiro, malamba ndi nduwira kuti azioneka mwaulemu ndi molemekezeka.
Wenzele amadodana ka-Aroni amabhatshi, lamabhanti kanye lamaqhiye ukuze abe lesithunzi, ahlonipheke.
41 Zovala zimenezi umuveke Aaroni, mʼbale wako ndi ana ake. Kenaka uwadzoze, uwapatse udindo ndi kuwapatula kuti anditumikire ngati ansembe anga.
Emva kokugqokisa u-Aroni umfowenu kanye lamadodana akhe lezizembatho, bagcobe ubahlukanisele ukuba ngabaphristi bami.
42 “Uwapangire akabudula a nsalu yofewa oyambira mʼchiwuno kulekeza mʼntchafu kuti asamaonetse maliseche.
Thunga izembatho zangaphansi ngelembu, zisukele ekhalweni kusiya emathangazini, zibe yizembatho zomzimba.
43 Aaroni ndi ana ake ayenera kuvala akabudulawo pamene akulowa mu tenti ya msonkhano kapena pamene akupita ku guwa lansembe kukatumikira malo oyera kuopa kuti angachimwe ndi kufa. “Ili likhale lamulo la nthawi zonse kwa Aaroni ndi zidzukulu zake.”
U-Aroni kanye lamadodana akhe bazazigqoka izikhathi zonke nxa bengena ethenteni lokuhlangana lanxa besondela e-alithareni ukwenza umsebenzi wokukhonza eNdaweni eNgcwele, ukuze bangabi lecala bafe. Lokhu kuzakuba yisimiso esingapheliyo ku-Aroni lakuzizukulwane zakhe.”
