< Exodus 25 >

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Mukama n’ayogera ne Musa nti,
2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, so that they may take the first-fruits to me. You shall accept these from every man who offers of his own accord.
“Gamba abaana ba Isirayiri bandeetere ekiweebwayo. Buli muntu aleete ekiweebwayo ng’okuteesa kw’omutima gwe bwe kuli, okimunzijireko.
3 Now these are the things that you must accept: Gold, and silver, and brass,
“Bino bye biweebwayo bye banaakukwasa: “zaabu, ne ffeeza, n’ekikomo;
4 hyacinth and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine linen, the hair of goats,
n’olugoye olwa bbululu, n’olwa kakobe, n’olumyufu, n’olugoye olwa linena erangiddwa mu wuzi ennungi; n’obwoya bw’embuzi,
5 and the skins of rams, dyed red, and skins of violet, and setim wood,
n’amaliba g’endiga ennume amakunye amannyike mu langi emyufu, n’ekika ky’eddiba ekirala ekiwangaazi; n’embaawo z’omuti gwa akasiya;
6 oil to prepare lights, aromatics as ointments and sweet-smelling incense,
n’amafuta g’ettaala; n’ebyakaloosa eby’okukozesa mu mafuta ag’okwawula, ne mu bubaane obw’okunyookeza;
7 onyx stones and gems to adorn the ephod as well as the breastplate.
n’amayinja aga onuku n’amayinja amalala ag’omuwendo, ag’okutona ku kkanzu ey’obwakabona eyitibwa efodi, era ne ku kyomukifuba.
8 And they shall make a sanctuary for me, and I will live in their midst.
“Bankolere ekifo ekitukuvu ndyoke mbeerenga wakati mu bo.
9 According to exact likeness of the tabernacle, and all of the vessels for its rituals, that I will reveal to you, so shall you make it.
Mukole Eweema ya Mukama eyo entukuvu n’ebigibeeramu byonna nga bwe nnaabalagirira.
10 Join together an ark of setim wood, whose length shall hold two and one half cubits; the width, one and one half cubits; the height, likewise, one and one half cubits.
“Bakole essanduuko mu muti gwa akasiya, obuwanvu mita emu ne sentimita kkumi na ssatu, obugazi sentimita nkaaga mu musanvu n’obugulumivu sentimita nkaaga mu musanvu.
11 And you shall overlay it with the finest gold, inside and out. And over it, you shall fashion a gold crown all around,
Ogiteekeko zaabu omuka ennyo munda ne kungulu, era ogyetoolooze omuge ogwa zaabu.
12 and four gold rings, which you shall set into the four corners of the ark. Let two rings be on one side and two on the other.
Ogiweeseze empeta nnya eza zaabu ozisibe ku magulu gaayo ana, ng’empeta ebbiri ziri ku ludda olumu, n’endala ebbiri ku ludda lwayo olulala.
13 Likewise, you shall make bars of setim wood and cover them with gold.
Obajje emisituliro mu muti ogwa akasiya, ogibikkeko zaabu.
14 And you shall put them through the rings that are in the sides of the ark, so that it may be carried on them.
Ogisonseke mu mpeta eziri ku ssanduuko, okusituzanga essanduuko.
15 These must always be in the rings, neither shall they ever be drawn out of them.
Emisituliro egyo ginaalekebwanga mu mpeta ze ssanduuko, si zaakuggyangamu.
16 And you shall place the testimony, which I will give to you, in the ark.
Mu ssanduuko omwo mw’onossa Amateeka ge nnaakuwa.
17 You shall also make a propitiatory of the finest gold. Its length shall hold two and one half cubits, and the width, one and one half cubits.
“Okolereko ekisaanikira, ye ntebe ey’okusaasira, nga kya zaabu omuka ennyo; obuwanvu bwakyo sentimita nkaaga mu musanvu, n’obugazi sentimita nkaaga mu musanvu.
18 Likewise, you shall make two Cherubim of formed gold, on both sides of the oracle.
Era okolereko ebifaananyi bya bakerubi babiri mu zaabu empeese, ku njuyi ebbiri ez’ekisaanikira.
19 Let one Cherub be on the one side, and the other be on the other.
Oteeke ekifaananyi kya kerubi omu ku ludda lumu olw’ekisaanikira, n’ekifaananyi kya kerubi omulala ku ludda olwokubiri, nga ebifaananyi bya bakerubi byombi byekutte wamu n’ekisaanikira.
20 And let them cover both sides of the propitiatory, spreading their wings and covering the oracle, and let them look out toward one another, their faces being turned toward the propitiatory, with which the ark is to be covered,
Ebiwaawaatiro bya bakerubi bibe bibikkule nga bisonze waggulu, era nga bisiikiriza ekisaanikira. Bakerubi batunulagane nga boolekedde ekisaanikira.
21 in which you will place the testimony that I will give to you.
Ekisaanikira onookissa kungulu ku Ssanduuko; ekiwandiiko eky’Endagaano ey’Amateeka kye nnaakuwa, okisse munda mu Ssanduuko.
22 From there, I will warn you and speak to you, above the propitiatory and from the middle of the two Cherubim, which will be over the ark of the testimony, about everything that I will command of the sons of Israel through you.
Awo waggulu w’ekisaanikira, mu bakerubi bombi abali ku Ssanduuko ey’Endagaano, we nzija okukusisinkana ndyoke nkuwe ebiragiro byange byonna bye nkoledde abaana ba Isirayiri.
23 You shall also make a table of setim wood, having two cubits of length, and one cubit in width, and one cubit and one half cubits in height.
“Okole emmeeza mu muti gwa akasiya, obuwanvu bwayo sentimita kyenda, obugazi sentimita amakumi ana mu ttaano, n’obugulumivu sentimita nkaaga mu musanvu.
24 And you shall overlay it with the purest gold. And you shall make it with a gold lip all around,
Ogibikkeko zaabu omuka ennyo; era ogyetoolooze ne zaabu omuge gwonna.
25 and for the lip itself an engraved crown, four fingers high, and above it another little gold crown.
Era ogyetoolooze olukugiro oluweza sentimita musanvu ne desimoolo ttaano obugazi, n’omuge ogwa zaabu okwetooloola olukugiro olwo.
26 Likewise, you shall prepare four gold rings and set them in the four corners of the same table, over each foot.
Ogikolere empeta nnya eza zaabu, ozisibe mu nsonda ennya awali amagulu ana.
27 Under the crown, there shall be gold rings, so that the bars may be put through them and the table may be carried.
Empeta zijja kubeera waggulu okumpi n’omuge, emisituliro gy’emmeeza mwe ginaayisibwa.
28 Likewise, the bars themselves you shall make of setim wood, and surround them with gold, to lift up the table.
Okole emisituliro mu muti gwa akasiya, ogibikkeko zaabu, egyo emmeeza kw’eneesitulirwanga.
29 You shall also prepare small cups, as well as bowls, censers, and measuring cups, with which the libations shall be offered, out of the purest gold.
Era ogikolere essowaani eza zaabu, n’ebijiiko ebya zaabu, n’ensuwa eza zaabu, n’ebibya ebya zaabu eby’okufukanga ebiweebwayo.
30 And you shall place upon the table the bread of the presence, in my sight always.
Era ku mmeeza eno onossaako Emigaati egy’Okulaga, egy’okubeeranga mu maaso gange bulijjo.
31 You shall also make a lampstand, formed from the finest gold, along with its stem and arms, its bowl and little spheres, as well as the lilies proceeding from it.
“Okole ekikondo ky’ettaala nga kya zaabu omuka. Ekikondo kyonna na bino ebikiriko: entobo yaakyo n’enduli, ebikopo ebifaanana ng’ebimuli, amatabi n’emitunsi n’ebimuli byako, byonna byakuweesebwa mu kyuma kya zaabu kimu bulambalamba.
32 Six branches shall go out from the sides: three out of one side and three out of the other.
Kunaabako amatabi mukaaga omutuula emisubbaawa: amatabi asatu nga gali ku ludda lumu, n’amalala asatu nga gali ku ludda olulala.
33 Three bowls, the size of nuts, shall be on each branch, and a little sphere with it, and a lily. And three similar bowls, in the likeness of nuts, shall be on the other branch, and a little sphere with it, and a lily. This shall be the form of the six branches, which are to proceed from the stem.
Ku matabi gonna omukaaga agava ku kikondo ky’ettaala, kubeeko ku buli ttabi, ebikopo bisatu ebikole ng’ebimuli by’alumondi; mu buli kikopo nga mulimu omutunsi n’ekimuli.
34 Then, in the lampstand itself, there shall be four bowls, the size of nuts, and each with little spheres and lilies.
Ku kikondo ky’ettaala kyennnyini kubeeko ebikopo bina ebifaanana ebimuli by’alumondi nga mulimu emitunsi n’ebimuli.
35 Little spheres under two branches in three places, which together make six, shall proceed from one of the stems.
Omutunsi gumu gujja kuba wansi w’amatabi abiri agava ku kikondo, n’omutunsi ogwokubiri gubeere wansi w’amatabi abiri amalala, n’omutunsi ogwokusatu gubeere wansi w’amatabi abiri amalala; amatabi gonna omukaaga ne gaggwaayo.
36 Thus both the little spheres and the branches shall be made out of the same thing: entirely formed from the purest gold.
Emitunsi n’amatabi biweesebwe mu kyuma kya zaabu omwereere, nga kiri bulambalamba n’ekikondo ky’ettaala.
37 You shall also make seven lamps, and you shall place them upon the lampstand, so that they may give light in every direction.
“Era ekikondo kikolere ettaala musanvu; ettaala zino nga zaakira mu maaso gaakyo.
38 Likewise, the candle snuffers, and the place where the candles will be extinguished, shall be made from the purest gold.
Makansi ezikomola entambi, n’essowaani ez’okussaako ebisirinza, byonna bikolebwe mu zaabu mwereere.
39 The entire weight of the candlestick, with all its parts, shall hold one talent of the purest gold.
Ojja kwetaaga zaabu omwereere aweza obuzito bwa kilo asatu mu nnya, okukola ekikondo ky’ettaala ne byonna ebigenderako.
40 Observe, and then make it according to the example that was shown to you on the mountain.”
Weegendereze, byonna obikole ng’ogoberera ekifaananyi kye nkulaze wano ku lusozi.”
