Exodus 25
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Bwana akamwambia Mose,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me a heave-offering: of every one whose heart prompteth him, ye shall take my heave-offering.
“Waambie Waisraeli waniletee sadaka. Utapokea sadaka kwa niaba yangu kutoka kwa kila mtu ambaye moyo wake wapenda kutoa.
3 And this is the heave-offering that ye shall take of them: gold, and silver, and copper,
Hizi ndizo sadaka utakazozipokea kutoka kwao: dhahabu, fedha na shaba;
4 and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and byssus, and goats' [hair],
nyuzi za rangi ya buluu, za zambarau, za rangi nyekundu, pamoja na kitani safi; singa za mbuzi;
5 and rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins; and acacia-wood;
ngozi za kondoo dume zilizopakwa rangi nyekundu, na ngozi za pomboo; mbao za mshita;
6 oil for the light; spices for the anointing oil, and for the incense of fragrant drugs;
mafuta ya zeituni kwa ajili ya taa; vikolezi kwa ajili ya mafuta ya upako, pamoja na uvumba wa harufu nzuri;
7 onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breastplate.
na vito vya shohamu na vito vingine vya thamani vya kuweka kwenye kisibau na kile kifuko cha kifuani.
8 And they shall make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.
“Kisha uwaamuru wanitengenezee mahali patakatifu, nami nitakaa miongoni mwao.
9 According to all that I shall shew thee, the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the utensils thereof, even so shall ye make [it].
Tengeneza hema hili na vyombo vyake vyote sawasawa na kielelezo nitakachokuonyesha.
10 And they shall make an ark of acacia-wood; two cubits and a half the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
“Nao watatengeneza Sanduku la mbao za mshita, lenye urefu wa dhiraa mbili na nusu, upana wa dhiraa moja na nusu, na kimo cha dhiraa moja na nusu.
11 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold: inside and outside shalt thou overlay it; and shalt make upon it a border of gold round about.
Utalifunika hilo Sanduku kwa dhahabu safi ndani na nje, na kulifanyia ukingo wa dhahabu juu yake kulizunguka.
12 And cast four rings of gold for it, and put [them] at the four corners thereof, that two rings may be upon the one side thereof and two rings upon the other side thereof.
Utalisubu kwa pete nne za dhahabu na kuzifungia kwenye miguu yake minne, pete mbili kwa upande mmoja na pete mbili kwa upande mwingine.
13 And make staves of acacia-wood and overlay them with gold.
Kisha utatengeneza mipiko ya mti wa mshita na kuzifunika kwa dhahabu.
14 And put the staves into the rings upon the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with them.
Utaiingiza hiyo mipiko kwenye zile pete katika pande mbili za Sanduku ili kulibeba.
15 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not come out from it.
Hiyo mipiko itabakia daima katika hizo pete za hilo Sanduku; haitaondolewa.
16 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony that I shall give thee.
Kisha weka ndani ya hilo Sanduku ule Ushuhuda nitakaokupa.
17 And thou shalt make a mercy-seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
“Tengeneza kifuniko cha upatanisho cha dhahabu safi, chenye urefu wa dhiraa mbili na nusu, na upana wa dhiraa moja na nusu.
18 And thou shalt make two cherubim of gold; [of] beaten work shalt thou make them, at the two ends of the mercy-seat.
Tengeneza makerubi wawili wa dhahabu iliyofuliwa katika miisho ya hicho kifuniko.
19 And make one cherub at the end of the one side, and one cherub at the end of the other side; out of the mercy-seat shall ye make the cherubim at the two ends thereof.
Tengeneza kerubi mmoja kwenye mwisho mmoja, na kerubi mwingine kwenye mwisho mwingine; watengeneze makerubi hao wawe kitu kimoja na hicho kifuniko katika miisho hiyo miwili.
20 And the cherubim shall stretch out [their] wings over it, covering over with their wings the mercy-seat, and their faces opposite to one another: toward the mercy-seat shall the faces of the cherubim be [turned].
Makerubi hao watakuwa wametandaza mabawa kuelekea juu, yakitia kivuli hicho kifuniko. Makerubi hao wataelekeana, wakitazama hicho kifuniko.
21 And thou shalt put the mercy-seat above on the ark, and shalt put in the ark the testimony that I shall give thee.
Weka huo Ushuhuda nitakaokupa ndani ya hilo Sanduku la Agano, na uweke hicho kifuniko juu ya hilo Sanduku.
22 And there will I meet with thee, and will speak with thee from above the mercy-seat, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, everything that I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.
Hapo juu ya hicho kifuniko, kati ya hao makerubi wawili walioko juu ya hilo Sanduku la Ushuhuda, hapo ndipo nitakapokutana nawe na kukupa maagizo yangu kwa ajili ya Waisraeli.
23 And thou shalt make a table of acacia-wood, two cubits the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
“Tengeneza meza ya mbao za mshita yenye urefu wa dhiraa mbili, upana wa dhiraa moja, na kimo cha dhiraa moja na nusu.
24 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make upon it a border of gold round about.
Ifunike kwa dhahabu safi, na kuitengenezea ukingo wa dhahabu kuizunguka pande zote.
25 And thou shalt make for it a margin of a handbreadth round about, and shalt make a border of gold for the margin thereof round about.
Kisha tengeneza upapi wenye upana wa nyanda nne, na ufanyie ule upapi ukingo wa dhahabu kuuzunguka pande zote.
26 And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings at the four corners that are on the four feet thereof.
Tengeneza pete nne za dhahabu kwa ajili ya meza hiyo, na uzifungie kwenye pembe nne, pale penye miguu yake minne.
27 Close to the margin shall the rings be, as receptacles of the staves to carry the table.
Pete hizo zitakuwa karibu na ukingo ule ili kuishikilia ile mipiko itakayotumika kuibebea hiyo meza.
28 And thou shalt make the staves of acacia-wood, and overlay them with gold; and the table shall be carried upon them.
Tengeneza mipiko hiyo kwa mbao za mshita, uifunike na dhahabu, uitumie kubeba hiyo meza.
29 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and cups thereof, and goblets thereof, and bowls thereof, with which to pour out: of pure gold shalt thou make them.
Tengeneza sahani zake na masinia yake kwa dhahabu safi, pamoja na bilauri na bakuli zake kwa ajili ya kumiminia sadaka.
30 And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me continually.
Utaweka mikate ya Wonyesho juu ya meza hii iwe mbele yangu daima.
31 And thou shalt make a lamp-stand of pure gold; [of] beaten work shall the lamp-stand be made: its base and its shaft, its cups, its knobs, and its flowers shall be of the same.
“Tengeneza kinara cha taa cha dhahabu safi iliyofuliwa vizuri katika kitako chake na ufito wake; vikombe vyake vinavyofanana na ua, matovu yake na maua yake viwe kitu kimoja.
32 And six branches shall come out of the sides thereof — three branches of the lamp-stand out of one side thereof, and three branches of the lamp-stand out of the other side thereof;
Matawi sita yatatokeza kuanzia ule ufito wa katikati wa kinara cha taa: matawi matatu upande mmoja na matatu upande mwingine.
33 three cups shaped like almonds in the one branch, a knob and a flower: and three cups shaped like almonds in the other branch, a knob and a flower: so in the six branches that come out of the lamp-stand.
Vikombe vitatu vya mfano wa maua ya mlozi yenye matovu na maua vitakuwa katika tawi moja, vikombe vitatu katika tawi jingine, na vivyo hivyo kwa matawi yote sita yanayotokeza kwenye kile kinara cha taa.
34 And in the lamp-stand four cups shaped like almonds, its knobs and its flowers;
Juu ya kinara chenyewe vitakuwepo vikombe vinne vya mfano wa maua ya mlozi yakiwa na matovu yake na maua yake.
35 and a knob under two branches of it, and [again] a knob under two branches of it, and [again] a knob under two branches of it, for the six branches that proceed out of the lamp-stand.
Tovu moja litakuwa chini ya jozi ya kwanza ya matawi yaliyotokeza kwenye kinara cha taa, tovu la pili chini ya jozi ya pili, nalo tovu la tatu chini ya jozi ya tatu, yaani matawi sita kwa jumla.
36 Their knobs and their branches shall be of itself — all of one beaten work of pure gold.
Matovu na matawi yote yatakuwa kitu kimoja na kile kinara cha taa, yakifuliwa kwa dhahabu safi.
37 And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof, and they shall light the lamps thereof, that they may shine out before it;
“Kisha tengeneza taa zake saba na uziweke juu ya kinara hicho ili ziangaze mbele yake.
38 and the snuffers thereof, and the snuff-trays thereof, of pure gold.
Mikasi ya kusawazishia tambi, pamoja na masinia, zote zitakuwa za dhahabu safi.
39 Of a talent of pure gold shall they make it, with all these utensils.
Utatumia talanta moja ya dhahabu safi kutengeneza hicho kinara na vifaa vyake vyote.
40 And see that thou make [them] according to their pattern, which hath been shewn to thee in the mountain.
Hakikisha kuwa umevitengeneza sawasawa na ule mfano ulioonyeshwa kule mlimani.
