Tâconae 40
1 BAWIPA ni Mosi koe a dei pouh e teh,
Then the LORD said to Moses,
2 apasueke thapa, apasuek hnin vah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim hah na sak han.
“On the first day of the first month you are to set up the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting.
3 A thung vah lawkpanuesaknae thingkong hah na hruek vaiteh, yaphni hoi na ngue sak han.
Put the ark of the Testimony in it and screen off the ark with the veil.
4 Caboi hah na kâenkhai vaiteh, avan kaawm e hnonaw hah na hruek han, hmaiimkhok hah na kâenkhai vaiteh, hmaiim hah na hruek han.
Then bring in the table and set out its arrangement; bring in the lampstand as well, and set up its lamps.
5 Hmuitui hmaisawinae sui khoungroe hah lawkpanuesaknae hmalah na hruek vaiteh, lukkareiim takhang yaphni hah na yap han.
Place the gold altar of incense in front of the ark of the Testimony, and hang the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.
6 Hmaisawi thuengnae khoungroe hah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim takhang hmalah na hruek han.
Place the altar of burnt offering in front of the entrance to the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting.
7 Kamkhuengnae lukkareiim hoi khoungroe rahak vah kawlung na hruek vaiteh, hawvah tui na hlun han.
And place the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and put water in it.
8 Lukkareiim petkâkalup lah kalupnae thungup thongma na sak vaiteh, kalupnae longkha dawk yaphni na yap han.
Set up the surrounding courtyard and hang the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard.
9 Hluk e satui hah la vaiteh, lukkareiim hoi a thung kaawmnaw pueng hah hluk vaiteh, na thoung sak han, hnopainaw pueng hai hottelah a thoung awh han.
Take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle and everything in it; consecrate it along with all its furnishings, and it shall be holy.
10 Hmaisawi thuengnae khoungroe hoi hnopai pueng hah satui hluk vaiteh, khoungroe hah na thoung sak han. Hottelah khoungroe teh kathoungpounge lah ao han.
Anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils; consecrate the altar, and it shall be most holy.
11 Kawlung hoi pâhungnae hah satui na hluk vaiteh na thoung sak han.
Anoint the basin and its stand and consecrate them.
12 Aron hoi a capanaw hah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim takhang koevah, thokhai vaiteh, tui hoi na pâsu han.
Then bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and wash them with water.
13 Aron hah kathounge khohna hah na kho sak vaiteh, vaihma thaw kai han a tawk thai nahanelah, satui na hluk vaiteh na thoung sak han.
And you are to clothe Aaron with the holy garments, anoint him, and consecrate him, so that he may serve Me as a priest.
14 A capanaw hai thokhai vaiteh, angki na kho sak han.
Bring his sons forward and clothe them with tunics.
15 Hottelah vaihma thaw kai han a tawk thai awh nahanelah a na pa satui na hluk e patetlah satui na hluk han. Satui hluk lah ao awh e heh a ca catounnaw totouh a yungyoe vaihma lah ao awh nahanelah pouk pouh e lah pou ao han telah ahnimouh hanlah mitnoutnae lah ao telah a dei.
Anoint them just as you anointed their father, so that they may also serve Me as priests. Their anointing will qualify them for a permanent priesthood throughout their generations.”
16 Hottelah, Mosi ni BAWIPA ni kâ a poe e patetlah koung a sak.
Moses did everything just as the LORD had commanded him.
17 Hahoi, apâhni kum, apasuek thapa, apasuek hnin vah, lukkareiim hah a sak awh.
So the tabernacle was set up on the first day of the first month of the second year.
18 Mosi ni lukkareiim hah a sak teh, khompacawpnae naw hah a ung teh, thingpheknaw hah a kangdue sak teh, pangkheknaw hah a hrawt teh, khomnaw hah a kangdue sak.
When Moses set up the tabernacle, he laid its bases, positioned its frames, inserted its crossbars, and set up its posts.
19 BAWIPA ni Mosi koe kâ a poe e patetlah lukkareiim van vah hni a padi teh, hote van vah patuen patuen a ramuk sin.
Then he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering over the tent, just as the LORD had commanded him.
20 Lawkpanuesaknae hah a la teh, thingkong thung vah a hruek. Thingkong dawk acung hah a hrawt teh, Thingkong van lungmanae tungkhung hah a hruek.
Moses took the Testimony and placed it in the ark, attaching the poles to the ark; and he set the mercy seat atop the ark.
21 BAWIPA ni Mosi kâ a poe tangcoung e patetlah thingkong teh lukkareiim thung vah a hruek. Rakhannae yaphni hah a yap teh, lawkpanuesaknae thingkong teh rakhan thung vah ao.
Then he brought the ark into the tabernacle, put up the veil for the screen, and shielded off the ark of the Testimony, just as the LORD had commanded him.
22 Caboi teh kamkhuengnae lukkareiim thung, atunglah yaphni lawilah a hruek.
Moses placed the table in the Tent of Meeting on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil.
23 BAWIPA ni Mosi kâ a poe tangcoung e patetlah BAWIPA hmalah caboi dawk vaiyei teh a pâhung.
He arranged the bread on it before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him.
24 Hmaiimkhok hah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim thung akalah, caboi hoi kadangka lah a hruek.
He also placed the lampstand in the Tent of Meeting opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacle
25 BAWIPA ni Mosi kâ a poe tangcoung patetlah hmaiim hah BAWIPA hmalah a hruek.
and set up the lamps before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him.
26 BAWIPA ni Mosi kâ a poe tangcoung patetlah sui khoungroe teh kamkhuengnae lukkareiim thung yaphni hmalah a hruek teh,
Moses placed the gold altar in the Tent of Meeting, in front of the veil,
27 hot van hmuitui hmai a sawi.
and he burned fragrant incense on it, just as the LORD had commanded him.
28 Hahoi lukkareiim takhang yaphni hah a yap.
Then he put up the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.
29 BAWIPA ni Mosi kâ a poe tangcoung patetlah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim takhang kung koevah, hmaisawi thuengnae khoungroe hah a hruek teh, hot van vah hmaisawi thuengnae hoi canei thuengnae hah a thueng.
He placed the altar of burnt offering near the entrance to the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the grain offering, just as the LORD had commanded him.
30 BAWIPA ni Mosi kâ a poe tangcoung patetlah kawlung hah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim hoi khoungroe rahak vah a hruek teh, kâpasu nahanlah tui a hlun.
He placed the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing;
31 Mosi, Aron hoi a capanaw ni haw vah a kutnaw hoi a khoknaw hah a pâsu awh.
and from it Moses, Aaron, and his sons washed their hands and feet.
32 Kamkhuengnae lukkareiim thung a kâen han nah hoi, khoungroe teng a cei awh han nah ouk a pâsu awh.
They washed whenever they entered the Tent of Meeting or approached the altar, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
33 Hahoi lukkareiim hoi khoungroe petkâkalup lah a kalup teh, thongma e longkha dawk yaphni hah a yap teh, hottelah Mosi ni thaw hateh a cum.
And Moses set up the courtyard around the tabernacle and the altar, and he hung the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard. So Moses finished the work.
34 Hottelah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim teh tâmai ni muen a kayo teh, lukkareiim teh BAWIPA bawilennae hoi a kawi.
Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
35 Hot patetlah tâmai a pâyam teh, BAWIPA bawilennae hoi lukkareiim muen akawi dawkvah, Mosi teh kamkhuengnae lukkareiim thung kâen thai hoeh.
Moses was unable to enter the Tent of Meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
36 Tâmai ni lukkareiim a kâtawm takhai torei vah, Isarelnaw teh a cei awh nahane koe lah ouk a cei awh.
Whenever the cloud was lifted from above the tabernacle, the Israelites would set out through all the stages of their journey.
37 Hatei, tâmai ni kâtawm takhai hoehpawiteh, a kâtawm hoehroukrak kampuen laipalah ao awh.
If the cloud was not lifted, they would not set out until the day it was taken up.
38 Bangkongtetpawiteh, kahlawng a cei awh nah thung pueng, Isarelnaw pueng e mithmu vah, BAWIPA e tâmai teh kanîthun vah lukkareiim lathueng a pâyam teh, karum vah ahnimouh lathueng ouk a ang pouh.
For the cloud of the LORD was over the tabernacle by day, and fire was in the cloud by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel through all their journeys.
