Eksodo 31
1 Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Taona, ndasankha Bezaleli mwana wa Uri, mwana wa Huri, wa fuko la Yuda.
See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,
3 Ndipo ndamudzaza ndi Mzimu wa Mulungu kotero kuti ali ndi luso ndi nzeru zomvetsa zinthu ndipo akudziwa bwino ntchito zonse zamanja monga izi:
and have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in every work,
4 Kulemba ndondomeko ya ntchito zaluso ndi kupanga zinthu zagolide, zasiliva ndi zamkuwa,
to devise artistic work — to work in gold, and in silver, and in copper,
5 kusema ndi kuyika miyala yokongola, kukonza zinthu zamatabwa ndiponso kugwira ntchito ina iliyonse yamanja.
and in cutting of stones, for setting, and for carving of timber — to work in all manner of work.
6 Ndasankhanso Oholiabu mwana wa Ahisamaki wa fuko la Dani. Ndiponso ndapereka nzeru kwa anthu aluso motero adzagwira ntchito zonse zimene ndakulamulira kuti zichitike monga izi:
And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the heart of every one that is wise-hearted have I given wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee —
7 Kupanga tenti ya msonkhano, bokosi laumboni pamodzi ndi chophimbira chake, ndiponso zonse za mu tenti,
the tent of meeting and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy-seat that is thereupon, and all the utensils of the tent,
8 tebulo ndi zida zake, choyikapo nyale cha golide wabwino kwambiri ndi ziwiya zake zonse, guwa lofukizirapo lubani,
and the table and its utensils, and the pure lamp-stand and all its utensils, and the altar of incense;
9 guwa lansembe yopsereza ndi ziwiya zake zonse, beseni ndi nsichi yake,
and the altar of burnt-offering and all its utensils, and the laver and its stand;
10 ndiponso zovala zonse zolukidwa, zovala zopatulika za Aaroni wansembe pamodzi ndi za ana ake, zovala pamene akutumikira monga ansembe,
and the garments of service, both the holy garments of Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to serve as priests;
11 ndiponso mafuta odzozera ndi lubani wonunkhira wa ku malo opatulika. Iwo azipanga monga momwe Ine ndinakulamulira.”
and the anointing oil, and the incense of fragrant drugs for the sanctuary: according to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.
12 Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
13 “Uza ana a Israeli kuti azisunga Masabata anga. Ichi chidzakhala chizindikiro pakati pa inu ndi Ine pamodzi ndi zidzukulu zanu mʼtsogolomo, chosonyeza kuti Ine ndine amene ndimakuyeretsani.
And thou, speak thou unto the children of Israel, saying, Surely my sabbaths shall ye keep; for this is a sign between me and you throughout your generations, that ye may know that it is I, Jehovah, who do hallow you.
14 “Motero muzisunga tsiku la Sabata chifukwa ndi loyera kwa inu. Aliyense amene adetsa tsiku la Sabata ayenera kuphedwa. Aliyense amene agwira ntchito iliyonse pa tsikuli ayenera kuchotsedwa pakati pa anthu anzake.
Keep the sabbath, therefore; for it is holy unto you; every one that profaneth it shall certainly be put to death: yea, whoever doeth work on it, that soul shall be cut off from among his peoples.
15 Mugwire ntchito kwa masiku asanu ndi limodzi koma tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri ndi Sabata, lopuma, tsiku lopatulika la Yehova. Aliyense amene agwira ntchito iliyonse pa tsiku la Sabata ayenera kuphedwa.
Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, holy to Jehovah: whoever doeth work on the sabbath day shall certainly be put to death.
16 Aisraeli onse komanso zidzukulu zawo mʼtsogolo azidzasunga tsiku la Sabata ngati pangano lamuyaya.
And the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations — [it is] an everlasting covenant.
17 Tsiku la Sabata lidzakhala chizindikiro chamuyaya pakati pa Ine ndi Aisraeli chosonyeza kuti Yehova analenga za kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi kwa masiku asanu ndi limodzi ndi kuti pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri analeka kugwira ntchito napumula.”
It shall be a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever; for [in] six days Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
18 Yehova atamaliza kuyankhula ndi Mose pa phiri la Sinai, anamupatsa Mose miyala iwiri yaumboni, imene Mulungu analembapo ndi chala chake.
And he gave to Moses, when he had ended speaking with him on mount Sinai, the two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
