Exodus 35
1 Then Moses assembled the whole congregation of Israel and said to them, “These are the things that the LORD has commanded you to do:
Mose akakusanya jumuiya yote ya Waisraeli na kuwaambia, “Haya ndiyo mambo ambayo Bwana amewaamuru ninyi mfanye:
2 For six days work may be done, but the seventh day shall be your holy day, a Sabbath of complete rest to the LORD. Whoever does any work on that day must be put to death.
Kwa siku sita, mtafanya kazi, lakini siku ya saba itakuwa takatifu kwenu, Sabato ya kupumzika kwa Bwana. Yeyote atakayefanya kazi yoyote siku hiyo ni lazima auawe.
3 Do not light a fire in any of your dwellings on the Sabbath day.”
Msiwashe moto mahali popote katika makazi yenu siku ya Sabato.”
4 Moses also told the whole congregation of Israel, “This is what the LORD has commanded:
Mose akaiambia jumuiya yote ya Waisraeli, “Hili ndilo Bwana aliloamuru:
5 Take from among you an offering to the LORD. Let everyone whose heart is willing bring an offering to the LORD: gold, silver, and bronze;
Toeni sadaka kwa Bwana kutoka mali mliyo nayo. Kila mmoja aliye na moyo wa kupenda atamletea Bwana sadaka ya dhahabu, fedha na shaba;
6 blue, purple, and scarlet yarn; fine linen and goat hair;
nyuzi za rangi ya buluu, za zambarau, za rangi nyekundu na kitani safi; singa za mbuzi;
7 ram skins dyed red and fine leather; acacia wood;
ngozi za kondoo dume zilizopakwa rangi nyekundu, na ngozi za pomboo; mbao za mshita;
8 olive oil for the light; spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense;
mafuta ya zeituni kwa ajili ya taa; vikolezi kwa ajili ya mafuta ya upako, pamoja na uvumba wa harufu nzuri;
9 and onyx stones and gemstones to be mounted on the ephod and breastpiece.
vito vya shohamu, na vito vingine vya thamani vya kuweka kwenye kisibau na kile kifuko cha kifuani.
10 Let every skilled craftsman among you come and make everything that the LORD has commanded:
“Wote wenye ujuzi miongoni mwenu inawapasa kuja na kutengeneza kila kitu Bwana alichoamuru:
11 the tabernacle with its tent and covering, its clasps and frames, its crossbars, posts, and bases;
Maskani pamoja na hema lake na kifuniko chake, vibanio, mihimili, mataruma, nguzo na vitako;
12 the ark with its poles and mercy seat, and the veil to shield it;
Sanduku la Agano pamoja na mipiko yake, kifuniko cha kiti cha rehema na pazia linalokizuia;
13 the table with its poles, all its utensils, and the Bread of the Presence;
meza na mipiko yake pamoja na vyombo vyake vyote, mikate ya Wonyesho;
14 the lampstand for light with its accessories and lamps and oil for the light;
kinara cha taa kwa ajili ya mwanga pamoja na vifaa vyake vyote, taa na mafuta kwa ajili ya mwanga;
15 the altar of incense with its poles; the anointing oil and fragrant incense; the curtain for the doorway at the entrance to the tabernacle;
madhabahu ya kufukiza uvumba pamoja na mipiko yake, mafuta ya upako na uvumba wenye harufu nzuri; pazia la mlangoni mahali pa kuingilia ndani ya maskani;
16 the altar of burnt offering with its bronze grate, its poles, and all its utensils; the basin with its stand;
madhabahu ya sadaka za kuteketeza pamoja na wavu wake wa shaba, mipiko yake pamoja na vyombo vyake vyote; sinia la shaba pamoja na tako lake;
17 the curtains of the courtyard with its posts and bases, and the curtain for the gate of the courtyard;
pazia la eneo la ua pamoja na nguzo zake na vitako vyake, pazia la ingilio la kwenye ua;
18 the tent pegs for the tabernacle and for the courtyard, along with their ropes;
vigingi vya hema kwa ajili ya maskani pamoja na ua na kamba zake;
19 and the woven garments for ministering in the holy place—both the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons to serve as priests.”
mavazi yaliyofumwa yanayovaliwa wakati wa huduma katika mahali patakatifu, yaani mavazi matakatifu kwa ajili ya kuhani Aroni, na mavazi kwa ajili ya wanawe watakapokuwa wakihudumu katika kazi ya ukuhani.”
20 Then the whole congregation of Israel withdrew from the presence of Moses.
Ndipo jumuiya yote ya Waisraeli ilipoondoka mbele ya Mose,
21 And everyone whose heart stirred him and whose spirit prompted him came and brought an offering to the LORD for the work on the Tent of Meeting, for all its services, and for the holy garments.
na kila mmoja aliyependa na ambaye moyo wake ulimsukuma alikuja na kuleta sadaka kwa Bwana, kwa ajili ya kazi katika Hema la Kukutania, kwa ajili ya huduma yake yote na kwa ajili ya mavazi matakatifu.
22 So all who had willing hearts, both men and women, came and brought brooches and earrings, rings and necklaces, and all kinds of gold jewelry. And they all presented their gold as a wave offering to the LORD.
Wote waliokuwa na utayari, wanaume kwa wanawake, wakaja wakaleta vito vya dhahabu vya kila aina: vipini, vipuli, pete na mapambo. Wote wakatoa dhahabu zao kama sadaka ya kuinuliwa kwa Bwana.
23 Everyone who had blue, purple, or scarlet yarn, or fine linen, goat hair, ram skins dyed red, or articles of fine leather, brought them.
Kila mmoja aliyekuwa na nyuzi za rangi ya buluu, za zambarau, au za rangi nyekundu au kitani safi, au singa za mbuzi, ngozi za kondoo dume zilizotiwa rangi nyekundu, au ngozi za pomboo, wakavileta.
24 And all who could present an offering of silver or bronze brought it as a contribution to the LORD. Also, everyone who had acacia wood for any part of the service brought it.
Wale waliotoa sadaka ya fedha au shaba wakavileta kama sadaka kwa Bwana, na kila aliyekuwa na mti wa mshita kwa ajili ya kazi yoyote ile akauleta.
25 Every skilled woman spun with her hands and brought what she had spun: blue, purple, or scarlet yarn, or fine linen.
Kila mwanamke aliyekuwa na ujuzi alisokota kwa mikono yake na alileta kile alichosokota, iwe ni nyuzi za rangi ya buluu, za zambarau, au za rangi nyekundu au kitani safi.
26 And all the skilled women whose hearts were stirred spun the goat hair.
Wanawake wote waliopenda na waliokuwa na ujuzi wakasokota singa za mbuzi.
27 The leaders brought onyx stones and gemstones to mount on the ephod and breastpiece,
Viongozi wakaleta vito vya shohamu pamoja na vito vingine vya thamani kwa ajili ya kuweka kwenye kisibau na kwenye kifuko cha kifuani.
28 as well as spices and olive oil for the light, for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense.
Wakaleta pia vikolezi na mafuta ya zeituni kwa ajili ya mwanga, kwa ajili ya mafuta ya upako na kwa ajili ya uvumba wenye harufu nzuri.
29 So all the men and women of the Israelites whose hearts prompted them brought a freewill offering to the LORD for all the work that the LORD through Moses had commanded them to do.
Waisraeli wote waume kwa wake waliokuwa wanapenda wakaleta mbele za Bwana kwa hiari yao wenyewe sadaka kwa ajili ya kazi yote ya Bwana aliyokuwa amewaagiza kuifanya kupitia kwa Mose.
30 Then Moses said to the Israelites, “See, the LORD has called by name Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
Kisha Mose akawaambia Waisraeli, “Tazameni, Bwana amemchagua Bezaleli mwana wa Uri, mwana wa Huri, wa kabila la Yuda,
31 And He has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability, and knowledge in all kinds of craftsmanship,
naye amemjaza Roho wa Mungu, pamoja na ustadi, na uwezo na ujuzi katika aina zote za ufundi,
32 to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze,
ili kubuni michoro ya kupendeza katika ufundi wa dhahabu, fedha na shaba,
33 to cut gemstones for settings, and to carve wood, so that he may be a master of every artistic craft.
kuchonga vito na kuvitia mahali, kufanya ufundi kwa mbao, na kujishughulisha na aina zote za ufundi wa kupendeza.
34 And the LORD has given both him and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, the ability to teach others.
Tena amempa yeye pamoja na Oholiabu, mwana wa Ahisamaki, wa kabila la Dani, uwezo wa kufundisha wengine.
35 He has filled them with skill to do all kinds of work as engravers, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple, and scarlet yarn and fine linen, and as weavers—as artistic designers of every kind of craft.
Amewajaza ustadi wa kufanya kazi za aina zote zifanywazo na mafundi, na wenye kubuni michoro, pia na watarizi kwa rangi za buluu, zambarau, nyekundu na kitani safi, na wafumaji: wote wakiwa mafundi na wabunifu hodari.
