Numbers 8
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
2 Speak to Aaron, and thou shalt say to him, Whenever thou shalt set the lamps in order, the seven lamps shall give light opposite the candlestick.
E olelo aku oe ia Aarona, a e I aku ia ia, penei, I ka manawa e kuni ai oe i na kukui, e hoomalamalama na ipu ehiku imua o ka ipukukui.
3 And Aaron did so: on one side opposite the candlestick he lighted its lamps, as the Lord appointed Moses.
Pela no o Aarona i hana'i; kuni iho la ia i kona mau kukui imua o ka ipukukui, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose.
4 And this [is] the construction of the candlestick: [it is] solid, golden—its stem, and its lilies—all solid: according to the pattern which the Lord shewed Moses, so he made the candlestick.
A o keia hana o ka ipukukui, he gula i wiliia, mai kona kumu a hiki i kona mau pua, he hana i Wiliia: mamuli o ke kumuhoolike a Iehova i hoike ai ia Mose, pela no ia i hana'i i ka ipukukui.
5 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
6 Take the Levites out of the midst of the children of Israel, and thou shalt purify them.
E lawe oe i na Levi maiwaena mai o na mamo a Iseraela, a e huikala ia lakou.
7 And thus shalt thou perform their purification: thou shalt sprinkle them with water of purification, and a razor shall come upon the whole of their body, and they shall wash their garments, and shall be clean.
Penei kau hana ana ia lakou, e huikala ai ia lakou: E kapipi i ka wai huikala maluna o lakou, a e amu lakou i ko lakou kino a pau, a e holoi lakou i ko lakou mau aahu, a e huikala ia lakou iho.
8 And they shall take one calf of the herd, and its meat-offering, fine flour mingled with oil: and thou shalt take a calf of a year old of the herd for a sin-offering.
Alaila, e lawe lakou i ka bipikeikikane, me kana mohaiai, he palaoa i kawili pu ia me ka aila; a me kekahi bipikeikikane hou e ae i mohaihala.
9 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the tabernacle of witness; and thou shalt assemble all the congregation of the sons of Israel.
A e kai mai oe i na Levi imua o ka halelewa o ke anaina; a e hoakoakoa mai hoi oe i ke anaina kanaka a pau o na mamo a Iseraela.
10 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the Lord; and the sons of Israel shall lay their hands upon the Levites.
A e kai mai oe i na Levi imua o Iehova; a e kau aku na mamo a Iseraela i ko lakou mau lima maluna o na Levi:
11 And Aaron shall separate the Levites for a gift before the Lord from the children of Israel: and they shall be prepared to perform the works of the Lord.
A e hoali aku o Aarona i na Levi io a ia nei, imua o Iehova, i mohaihoali o na mamo a Iseraela, i lilo ai lakou i poe e lawe i ka hana a Iehova.
12 And the Levites shall lay their hands on the heads of the calves; and thou shalt offer one for a sin-offering, and the other for a whole-burnt-offering to the Lord, to make atonement for them.
A e kau aku na Levi i ko lakou mau lima maluna o na poo o na bipikane: a e kaumaha oe i kekahi i mohaihala, a i kekahi i mohaikuni na Iehova, i mea hookalahala no na Levi
13 And thou shalt set the Levites before the Lord, and before Aaron, and before his sons; and thou shalt give them as a gift before the Lord.
A e hoonoho oe i na Levi imua o Aarona, a imua o kana mau keiki, a e mohai aku ia lakou i mohai na Iehova.
14 And thou shalt separate the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel, and they shall be mine.
Pela oe e hookaawale ai i na Levi maiwaena mai o na mamo a Iseraela; a e lilo na Levi no'u.
15 And afterwards the Levites shall go in to perform the works of the tabernacle of witness; and thou shalt purify them, and present them before the Lord.
A mahope iho, e komo na Levi e hana ma ka halelewa anaina; a e huikala oe ia lakou, a e mohai oe ia lakou i mohai.
16 For these are given to me for a present out of the midst of the children of Israel: I have taken them to myself instead of all the first-born of the sons of Israel that open every womb.
No ka mea, ua lilo loa lakou no'u maiwaena mai o na mamo a Iseraela, i panai no ka poe hanau mua, no na hanau mua a pau o na mamo a Iseraela, ua lawe au ia lakou no'u.
17 For every first-born among the children of Israel [is] mine, whether of man or beast: in the day in which I smote every first-born in the land of Egypt, I sanctified them to myself.
No ka mea, no'u no na hiapo a pau o na mamo a Iseraela, o ka ke kanaka, a me ka ka holoholona; i ka la a'u i luku ai na hanau mua a pau ma Aigupita, hoolaa iho la au ia lakou nei no'u.
18 And I took the Levites in the place of every first-born among the children of Israel.
A ua lawe au i na Levi i panai no na hanau mua a pau o na mamo a Iseraela.
19 And I gave the Levites presented as a gift to Aaron and his sons out of the midst of the children of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel in the tabernacle of witness, and to make atonement for the children of Israel: thus there shall be none among the sons of Israel to draw nigh to the holy things.
A ua haawi aku au i na Levi i haawina no Aarona a no kana mau keiki, maiwaena o na mamo a Iseraela, e hana i ka hana a ka poe mamo a Iseraela ma ka halelewa anaina, a e hookalahala no na mamo a Iseraela, i ole e lukuia na mamo a Iseraela, i ka wa e hele mai ai na mamo a Iseraela a kokoke i ke keenakapu.
20 And Moses and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel, did to the Levites as the Lord commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so the sons of Israel did to them.
A o Mose me Aarona a me ke anaina a pau o na mamo a Iseraela, hana aku la lakou i na Levi e like me na mea a pau a Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose no na Levi; pela no i hana aku ai na mamo a Iseraela ia lakou.
21 So the Levites purified themselves and washed their garments; and Aaron presented them as a gift before the Lord, and Aaron made atonement for them to purify them.
A ua huikalaia na Levi, a holoi iho la lakou i ko lakou aahu; a hoali aku o Aarona ia lakou i mohaihoali imua o Iehova, a hookalahala aku la o Aarona no lakou, i mea e huikala ai ia lakou.
22 And afterwards the Levites went in to minister in their service in the tabernacle of witness before Aaron, and before his sons; as the Lord appointed Moses concerning the Levites, so they did to them.
A mahope iho, komo aku la na Levi iloko e hana i ka lakou hana ma ka halelewa o ke anaina, imua o Aarona a imua o kana mau keiki: e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose no na Levi, pela no lakou i hana aku ai ia lakou.
23 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
24 This is the [ordinance] for the Levites; From five and twenty years old and upward, they shall go in to minister in the tabernacle of witness.
Eia ka mea no na Levi; mai ka iwakalua a me kumamalima o na makahiki a keu aku, e hele lakou iloko e hana i ka hana o ka halelewa o ke anaina:
25 And from fifty years old [the Levites] shall cease from the ministry, and shall not work any longer.
A mai ka makahiki he kanalima aku, e hoi lakou mai ka hana aku, aole lakou e hana hou aku.
26 And his brother shall serve in the tabernacle of witness to keep charges, but he shall not do works: so shalt thou do to the Levites in their charges.
Aka, e malama lakou me ko lakou poe hoahanau ma ka halelewa anaina, e kiai ana i ka oihana, aole nae lakou e hana. Pela no oe e hana aku ai i na Levi no ka lakou oihana.
