< 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:
Afei, Mose frɛɛ nnipa no nyinaa ne wɔn yɛɛ nhyiamu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Yei ne Awurade mmara a ɛsɛ sɛ modi so.
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.
Monyɛ adwuma nnansia. Na ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no deɛ, momfa nhome; ɛyɛ ɛda kronkron a ɛsɛ sɛ mode som Awurade. Obiara a ɔbɛyɛ adwuma biara saa ɛda no, ɔbɛwu.
3 Do not light a fire in any of your dwellings on the Sabbath day.”
Ɛda no, ogya mpo, monnsɔ bi ano wɔ mo afie mu.”
4 Moses also told the whole congregation of Israel, “This is what the LORD has commanded:
Mose ka kyerɛɛ nnipa no nyinaa sɛ, “Nsɛm a Awurade ahyɛ sɛ monyɛ nie.
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;
Obiara a ɔpɛ no mfa saa afɔrebɔdeɛ yi mu biara mmrɛ Awurade: “sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, kɔbere mfrafraeɛ;
6 blue, purple, and scarlet yarn; fine linen and goat hair;

7 ram skins dyed red and fine leather; acacia wood;
odwennini nhoma a wɔahyɛ no kɔkɔɔ ne mmirekyie nhoma a wɔahyɛ, okuo dua;
8 olive oil for the light; spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense;
kanea ngo, ɔsra ngo; nnuhwam a wɔhyeɛ;
9 and onyx stones and gemstones to be mounted on the ephod and breastpiece.
aboɔ a ɛte sɛ apopobibirieboɔ ne aboɔdemmoɔ a wɔde bɛhyehyɛ asɔfotadeɛ no ne adaaboɔ no mu.
10 Let every skilled craftsman among you come and make everything that the LORD has commanded:
“Mo a mowɔ nimdeɛ wɔ biribi yɛ ho no, mo nyinaa mommra na monyɛ deɛ Awurade aka no nyinaa te sɛ:
11 the tabernacle with its tent and covering, its clasps and frames, its crossbars, posts, and bases;
“Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no so ntoma ne ne nkatasoɔ, nkɔtɔkorɔ, aponnwa nnua a ɛsisi mu, adum ne nnyinasoɔ;
12 the ark with its poles and mercy seat, and the veil to shield it;
Apam Adaka no ne nnua a ɛsisi ho; Mpata Beaeɛ ntwamutam a ɛkata kronkronbea hɔ,
13 the table with its poles, all its utensils, and the Bread of the Presence;
Ɛpono ne nnua a wɔde soa ne ɛho nneɛma nyinaa, Hyiadan mu Burodo;
14 the lampstand for light with its accessories and lamps and oil for the light;
nkanea nnua ne nʼakanea ne ngo;
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;
aduhwam afɔrebukyia ne nnua a wɔde bɛsoa; srango ne aduhwam a ɛyi hwa pa, nsɛnanimu a wɔde bɛsɛn Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ɛpono ano;
16 the altar of burnt offering with its bronze grate, its poles, and all its utensils; the basin with its stand;

17 the curtains of the courtyard with its posts and bases, and the curtain for the gate of the courtyard;
adihɔ hɔ no ntwamutam, adum ne ne nnyinasoɔ, ntoma a wɔde bɛkata adihɔ hɔ ɛkwan ano,
18 the tent pegs for the tabernacle and for the courtyard, along with their ropes;
Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no adihɔ hɔ nnua ne ne ntampehoma,
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.”

20 Then the whole congregation of Israel withdrew from the presence of Moses.
Enti, nnipa no nyinaa kɔɔ wɔn ntomadan mu kɔyɛɛ akyɛdeɛ no ho ahoboa.
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.
Wɔn a Onyankopɔn honhom kaa wɔn akoma no de wɔn akyɛdeɛ a wɔde bɛsi Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ne ɛho nneɛma ne deɛ wɔde bɛpam atadeɛ kronkron no brɛɛ Awurade.
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.
Mmaa ne mmarima a asɛm no kaa wɔn akoma no nyinaa baeɛ. Wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ, agudeɛ, nsonkawa, nkawa, kɔnmuadeɛ ne sikadwinneɛ bebree brɛɛ Awurade.
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.
Wɔn a wɔwɔ ntoma pa, kuntu a ɛyɛ tuntum, bibire, abirekyie nhoma a wɔahyɛ, odwennini nhoma a wɔahyɛ no kɔkɔɔ anaa aboa nhoma a ɛyɛ fɛ nso de baeɛ.
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.
Afoforɔ nso de dwetɛ ne kɔbere brɛɛ Awurade sɛ wɔn akyɛdeɛ. Ebinom de okuo nnua nso baeɛ.
25 Every skilled woman spun with her hands and brought what she had spun: blue, purple, or scarlet yarn, or fine linen.
Mmaa no bi a wɔnim adepam yie no too asaawa tuntum, bibire ne koogyan de yɛɛ ntoma a ɛyɛ fɛ de brɛɛ Awurade.
26 And all the skilled women whose hearts were stirred spun the goat hair.
Afoforɔ nso de anigyeɛ nam wɔn dom akyɛdeɛ so de abirekyie nwi yɛɛ ntoma.
27 The leaders brought onyx stones and gemstones to mount on the ephod and breastpiece,
Mpanimfoɔ a wɔdi wɔn anim no de aboɔ a ɛte sɛ apopobibirieboɔ baeɛ sɛ wɔmfa nyɛ asɔfotadeɛ no ne nʼadaaboɔ.
28 as well as spices and olive oil for the light, for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense.
Wɔde nnuhwam ne ngo a wɔde bɛgu nkanea mu ne deɛ wɔde bɛfra srango no ne nnuhwam no ma adi mu no nso baeɛ.
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.
Yei di ho adanseɛ sɛ Israel mmarima ne mmaa a na wɔpɛ sɛ wɔboa dwumadie a Awurade nam Mose so de hyɛɛ wɔn nsa no firi wɔn pɛ mu de wɔn akyɛdeɛ brɛɛ no.
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.
Mose ka kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, “Awurade ayi Besaleel, Uri ba a ɔyɛ Hur a ɔfiri Yuda abusua mu nana
31 And He has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability, and knowledge in all kinds of craftsmanship,
no sɛ ɔno Onyankopɔn Honhom ahyɛ no ma. Wama no nyansa, tumi ne adwene a ɔde bɛsi Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ayɛ biribiara a ɛwɔ mu.
32 to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze,
Ɔbɛtumi adi adwini afiri sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, ne kɔbere mu.
33 to cut gemstones for settings, and to carve wood, so that he may be a master of every artistic craft.
Ɔwɔ agudeɛ adwinneɛ ne nnuasene ho nimdeɛ nso.
34 And the LORD has given both him and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, the ability to teach others.
Na Onyankopɔn ama ɔno ne Oholiab a ɔyɛ Ahisamak a ɔfiri Dan abusuakuo mu babarima adom akyɛdeɛ a wɔnam so kyerɛ afoforɔ adeɛ.
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.
Onyankopɔn ama wɔn baanu akyɛdeɛ sononko sɛ adwumfoɔ, duadwumfoɔ, adenwonofoɔ a wɔtumi nwono nneɛma a ɛyɛ fɛ gu ntoma pa a ɛyɛ tuntum, bibire ne koogyan mu. Wɔnim saa adwinneɛ yi nyinaa di ma ɛboro so.
