Exodus 40
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Azɔ la, Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
2 On the first day of the first month, at the new moon, thou shalt set up the tabernacle of witness,
“Tu agbadɔ la le ɣleti gbãtɔ ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ dzi.
3 and thou shalt place [in it] the ark of the testimony, and shalt cover the ark with the veil,
Tsɔ nubablaɖaka si me Se Ewoawo le la de eme, eye nàtsi xɔmetsovɔ la ale be wòaɣla nubablaɖaka la ɖe Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la.
4 and thou shalt bring in the table and shalt set forth that which is to be set forth on it; and thou shalt bring in the candlestick and place its lamps on it.
Emegbe la, kɔ kplɔ̃ la da ɖe eme, nàkɔ kplɔ̃a ŋutinuwo da ɖe kplɔ̃ la dzi, nàtsɔ akaɖiti la de eme, eye nàsi akaɖiawo.
5 And thou shalt place the golden altar, to burn incense before the ark; and thou shalt put a covering of a veil on the door of the tabernacle of witness.
“Kɔ sikavɔsamlekpui si dzi woado dzudzɔ ɖo la da ɖe nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ. Tsi xɔmemɔnuvɔawo ɖe agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu,
6 And thou shalt put the altar of burnt-offerings by the doors of the tabernacle of witness, and thou shalt set up the tabernacle round about, and thou shalt hallow all that belongs to it round about.
eye nàkɔ numevɔsamlekpui la da ɖe agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
Kɔ tsileze la da ɖe Mawu ƒe agbadɔ la kple vɔsamlekpui la dome, eye nàku tsi ɖe eme.
Le esia megbe la, wɔ xɔxɔnu la ƒo xlã agbadɔ la godoo, eye nàtsi xɔmemɔnuvɔ la ɖe xɔxɔnu la ƒe mɔnu.
9 And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and shalt anoint the tabernacle, and all things in it; and shalt sanctify it, and all its furniture, and it shall be holy.
“Tsɔ ami sisi la, eye nàhlẽe ɖe agbadɔ la kple nu sia nu si le eme la ŋuti, ɖe nu siwo ŋu dɔ woawɔ kple agbadɔ la ƒe akpawo kple xɔmenuawo ŋuti be nàkɔ wo ŋuti, eye wo ŋuti nakɔ.
10 And thou shalt anoint the altar of burnt-offerings, and all its furniture; and thou shalt hallow the altar, and the altar shall be most holy.
Hlẽ ami sisi la ɖe numevɔsamlekpui la kple eŋunuwo ŋuti, eye nàkɔ wo ŋu; ekema vɔsamlekpui la ŋuti akɔ nyuie.
Si ami na tsileze la kple eƒe zɔ, eye nàwɔe kɔkɔe.
12 And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons to the doors of the tabernacle of witness, and thou shalt wash them with water.
“Azɔ la, kplɔ Aron kple via ŋutsuwo va agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu eye nàle tsi na wo.
13 And thou shalt put on Aaron the holy garments, and thou shalt anoint him, and thou shalt sanctify him, and he shall minister to me as priest.
Do awu kɔkɔewo na Aron eye nàsi ami nɛ, akɔ eŋu be wòasubɔm abe nunɔla ene.
14 And thou shalt bring up his sons, and shalt put garments on them.
Emegbe la, nàkplɔ via ŋutsuwo vɛ, nàdo woƒe awuwo na wo,
15 And thou shalt anoint them as thou didst anoint their father, and they shall minister to me as priests; and it shall be that they shall have an everlasting anointing of priesthood, throughout their generations.
eye nàsi ami na wo abe ale si nàsii na wo fofo ene, ale be woasubɔm abe nunɔlawo ene. Ami sisi sia atsi wo ŋu tegbetegbe, tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me: wo viwo katã kple wo viwo ƒe viwo azu nunɔlawo nam tegbetegbe.”
16 And Moses did all things whatsoever the Lord commanded him, so did he.
Ale Mose de asi nu siwo katã Yehowa ɖo nɛ be wòawɔ la wɔwɔ me.
17 And it came to pass in the first month, in the second year after their going forth out of Egypt, at the new moon, that the tabernacle was set up.
Le ƒe evelia ƒe ɣleti gbãtɔ ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ dzi la, wotu agbadɔ la.
18 And Moses set up the tabernacle, and put on the chapiters, and put the bars into their places, and set up the posts.
Mose kɔ zɔwo de sɔtiawo te, eye wòklã ʋuƒowo ɖe sɔtiawo ŋu.
19 And he stretched out the curtains over the tabernacle, and put the veil of the tabernacle on it above as the Lord commanded Moses.
Ekeke avɔ la ɖe atixɔ la ŋu, eye wòda tamenuwo ɖe edzi abe ale si Yehowa ɖo nɛ pɛpɛpɛ la ene.
20 And he took the testimonies, and put them into the ark; and he put the staves by the sides of the ark.
Etsɔ kpe siwo dzi woŋlɔ Se Ewoawo ɖo la da ɖe nubablaɖaka la me, etsi aɖakatsɔtiawo ɖe eŋu, eye wòtsɔ sikanutunu, amenuveveteƒe la tu enu.
21 And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and put on [it] the covering of the veil, and covered the ark of the testimony, as the Lord commanded Moses.
Emegbe la, ekɔ nubablaɖaka la va agbadɔ la me, eye wòtsɔ xɔmetsovɔ la xe eŋkume abe ale si Yehowa ɖo nɛ pɛpɛpɛ la ene.
22 And he put the table in the tabernacle of witness, on the north side without the veil of the tabernacle.
Azɔ la, ekɔ Kplɔ̃ la da ɖe Mawu ƒe agbadɔ la me le anyiehe lɔƒo, le xɔmetsovɔ la godo,
23 And he put on it the shewbread before the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses.
eye wòtsɔ ŋkumeɖobolo la da ɖe kplɔ̃ la dzi le Yehowa ŋkume abe ale si Yehowa ɖo nɛ ene.
24 And he put the candlestick into the tabernacle of witness, on the side of the tabernacle toward the south.
Mose kɔ akaɖiti la da ɖe kplɔ̃ la kasa le agbadɔ la me le dziehe lɔƒo.
25 And he put on it its lamps before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Esi akaɖiawo le Yehowa ŋkume le ɖoɖoawo nu,
26 And he put the golden altar in the tabernacle of witness before the veil;
eye wòkɔ sikavɔsamlekpui la da ɖe agbadɔ la me te ɖe xɔmetsovɔ la ŋu.
27 and he burnt on it incense of composition, as the Lord commanded Moses.
Etsɔ atike ʋeʋĩwo do dzudzɔ ɖe edzi abe ale si Yehowa ɖo nɛ ene.
Etsi xɔmemɔnuvɔ la ɖe agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu,
29 And he put the altar of the burnt-offerings by the doors of the tabernacle.
ekɔ numevɔsamlekpui la da ɖe gota te ɖe agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu ŋu, eye wòme numevɔsa kple nuɖuvɔsa le vɔsamlekpui la dzi abe ale si Yehowa ɖo nɛ pɛpɛpɛ la ene.
Emegbe la, ekɔ tsileze la da ɖe Mawu ƒe agbadɔ la kple vɔsamlekpui la dome. Eku tsi ɖe eme wòyɔ ale be nunɔlawo ate ŋu awɔ eŋu dɔ le asikɔklɔ kple afɔkɔklɔ me.
31 And he set up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar; and Moses accomplished all the works.
Mose kple Aron kple Aron ƒe viŋutsuwo klɔ woƒe asiwo kple afɔwo le afi sia.
Ɣe sia ɣi si woato vɔsamlekpui la ŋu be yewoage ɖe agbadɔ la me la, wotɔna, klɔa asi kple afɔ, abe ale si Yehowa ɖo na Mose ene.
Azɔ la, Mose tɔ kpɔ ƒo xlã nɔƒe la kple vɔsamlekpui la, eye wòtsi xɔmemɔnuvɔ ɖe nɔƒe la ƒe mɔnu. Ale Mose wu eƒe dɔ la nu mlɔeba.
34 And the cloud covered the tabernacle of witness, and the tabernacle was filled with the glory of the Lord.
Tete lilikpo la tsyɔ Mawu ƒe agbadɔ la dzi eye Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe yɔ eme.
35 And Moses was not able to enter into the tabernacle of testimony, because the cloud overshadowed it, and the tabernacle was filled with the glory of the Lord.
Mose mete ŋu ge ɖe eme o, elabena lilikpo la nɔ afi ma, eye Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe yɔ agbadɔ la me fũu.
36 And when the cloud went up from the tabernacle, the children of Israel prepared to depart with their baggage.
Ne lilikpo la ho, eye wòɖe zɔ la, Israelviwo yia mɔzɔzɔ la dzi, dzea eyome.
37 And if the cloud went not up, they did not prepare to depart, till the day when the cloud went up.
Ke ne lilikpo la tɔ la, woawo hã wotɔna va se ɖe esime lilikpo la gaɖe zɔ.
38 For a cloud was on the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night before all Israel, in all their journeyings.
Yehowa ƒe lilikpo la tɔna ɖe agbadɔ la dzi le ŋkeke me. Ke le zã me la, dzo klẽna le lilikpo la me, ale be Israelviwo katã nate ŋu akpɔe. Nu sia yi edzi le woƒe mɔzɔzɔwo katã me.
