< Exodus 31 >
1 Then the LORD said to Moses,
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose,
2 “See, I have called by name Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
“Taona, ndasankha Bezaleli mwana wa Uri, mwana wa Huri, wa fuko la Yuda.
3 And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability, and knowledge in all kinds of craftsmanship,
Ndipo ndamudzaza ndi Mzimu wa Mulungu kotero kuti ali ndi luso ndi nzeru zomvetsa zinthu ndipo akudziwa bwino ntchito zonse zamanja monga izi:
4 to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze,
Kulemba ndondomeko ya ntchito zaluso ndi kupanga zinthu zagolide, zasiliva ndi zamkuwa,
5 to cut gemstones for settings, and to carve wood, so that he may be a master of every craft.
kusema ndi kuyika miyala yokongola, kukonza zinthu zamatabwa ndiponso kugwira ntchito ina iliyonse yamanja.
6 Moreover, I have selected Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, as his assistant. I have also given skill to all the craftsmen, that they may fashion all that I have commanded you:
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:
7 the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the Testimony and the mercy seat upon it, and all the other furnishings of the tent—
Kupanga tenti ya msonkhano, bokosi laumboni pamodzi ndi chophimbira chake, ndiponso zonse za mu tenti,
8 the table with its utensils, the pure gold lampstand with all its utensils, the altar of incense,
tebulo ndi zida zake, choyikapo nyale cha golide wabwino kwambiri ndi ziwiya zake zonse, guwa lofukizirapo lubani,
9 the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin with its stand—
guwa lansembe yopsereza ndi ziwiya zake zonse, beseni ndi nsichi yake,
10 as well as the woven garments, both the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons to serve as priests,
ndiponso zovala zonse zolukidwa, zovala zopatulika za Aaroni wansembe pamodzi ndi za ana ake, zovala pamene akutumikira monga ansembe,
11 in addition to the anointing oil and fragrant incense for the Holy Place. They are to make them according to all that I have commanded you.”
ndiponso mafuta odzozera ndi lubani wonunkhira wa ku malo opatulika. Iwo azipanga monga momwe Ine ndinakulamulira.”
12 And the LORD said to Moses,
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose,
13 “Tell the Israelites, ‘Surely you must keep My Sabbaths, for this will be a sign between Me and you for the generations to come, so that you may know that I am the LORD who sanctifies you.
“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.
14 Keep the Sabbath, for it is holy to you. Anyone who profanes it must surely be put to death. Whoever does any work on that day must be cut off from among his people.
“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.
15 For six days work may be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of complete rest, holy to the LORD. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day must surely be put to death.
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.
16 The Israelites must keep the Sabbath, celebrating it as a permanent covenant for the generations to come.
Aisraeli onse komanso zidzukulu zawo mʼtsogolo azidzasunga tsiku la Sabata ngati pangano lamuyaya.
17 It is a sign between Me and the Israelites forever; for in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, but on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed.’”
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.”
18 When the LORD had finished speaking with Moses on Mount Sinai, He gave him the two tablets of the Testimony, tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God.
Yehova atamaliza kuyankhula ndi Mose pa phiri la Sinai, anamupatsa Mose miyala iwiri yaumboni, imene Mulungu analembapo ndi chala chake.
