Exodus 28
1 Take unto thee also Aaron thy brother with his sons, from among the children of Israel, that they may minister to me in the priest’s office: Aaron, Nadab, and Abiu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Aron hoi Aron capa Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar hoi Ithamar naw ni, kai koevah, vaihma thaw a tawk thai awh nahanelah, na hmau Aron hoi a capanaw hah Isarel catounnaw thung hoi lat haw.
2 And thou shalt make a holy vesture for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty.
Hahoi na hmau Aron hanelah, kathounge khohna ka bawilen sakkung meikahawisakkung lah na o sak han.
3 And thou shalt speak to all the wise of heart, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron’s vestments, in which he being consecrated may minister to me.
Kutsakkathoume, lungangnae muitha lahoi, kakawisaknaw pueng hah dei pouh. Aloukcalah kapek e koehoi Aron ni vaihma thaw kai hanelah a tawk thai nahan a khohna hah sak pouh naseh.
4 And these shall be the vestments that they shall make: A rational and an ephod, a tunick and a strait linen garment, a mitre and a girdle. They shall make the holy vestments for thy brother Aaron and his sons, that they may do the office of priesthood unto me.
Hetheh khohna hanelah a khui awh hanelah doeh. Saiphei, angki, angkidung, Ephod, lupawk hoi taisawm. Na hmau Aron hoi a capanaw ni kai han vaihma thaw a tawk thai awh nahan, kathounge khohna na sak pouh han.
5 And they shall take gold, and violet, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine linen.
Sui, kamthim, paling, loukloukkaang e pahla hoi na sak pouh han.
6 And they shall make the ephod of gold, and violet, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine twisted linen, embroidered with divers colours.
Vaihma angki teh kutsakkathoumnaw ni a sak e patetlah Sui, kamthim, âthi, paling, loukloukkaang e pahla hoi carouk e lahoi a sak han.
7 It shall have the two edges joined in the top on both sides, that they may be closed together.
Apoutnae koe vah a loung dawk pâbawk e arui kahni touh ao vaiteh, hothateh pâbawk e lah ao han.
8 The very workmanship also and all the variety of the work shall be of gold, and violet, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine twisted linen.
Sui, kamthim, âthi, paling, opaou, hoi loukloukkaang e angki dawkvah, yeng hane taisawm kahawipoung lah kawng e angki hoi, aphu kaawmpoung e hno han.
9 And thou shalt take two onyx stones, and shalt grave on them the names of the children of Israel:
Hahoi aphu kaawm e talung kahni touh na la vaiteh, avan vah Isarel catounnaw e min hah na thut han.
10 Six names on one stone, and the other six on the other, according to the order of their birth.
Talung aphu kaawm e buet touh dawkvah, minnaw taruk touh, alouke talung dawkvah taruk touh, a tâconae lahoi na thut pouh han.
11 With the work of an engraver and the graving of a jeweller, thou shalt engrave them with the names of the children of Israel, set in gold and compassed about:
Min na thutnae talung thuk kathoumnaw ni a thuk awh e patetlah Isarel catounnaw e min hah talung kahni touh dawk na thuk han. Suihlaam dawk na pâseng han.
12 And thou shalt put them in both sides of the ephod, a memorial for the children of Israel. And Aaron shall bear their names before the Lord upon both shoulders, for a remembrance.
Isarel catounnaw pahnim hoeh nahanelah hote talung kahni touh hah angki rui dawk na bet han. Hottelah Aron ni ahnimae minnaw hah a loung roi dawk BAWIPA hmalah a bang han.
13 Thou shalt make also hooks of gold.
Suipahla vei e hai na sak vaiteh,
14 And two little chains of the purest gold linked one to another, which thou shalt put into the hooks.
Suidingyin kahni touh, rui karawn e patetlah na vei vaiteh, na vei e dingyin teh karawn e hoi a kamtawp han.
15 And thou shalt make the rational of judgment with embroidered work of divers colours, according to the workmanship of the ephod, of gold, violet, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine twisted linen.
Lawkcengnae Ephod hah na sak han. Sui, kamthim pahla, dikpaling pahla, opaou pahla, loukloukkaang pahla hoi kahawicalah kawng e vaihma angki na sak e patetlah na sak han.
16 It shall be foursquare and doubled: it shall be the measure of a span both in length and in breadth.
Takin pali touh a tawn vaiteh bawkhni touh lah ao han. Ayung khap touh adangka khap touh han.
17 And thou shalt set in it four rows of stones: in the first row shall be a sardius stone, and a topaz, and an emerald:
Hahoi talung phu kaawm than pali touh na pâthit han. Apasueke than dawkvah, sardius, topaz, hoi carbuncle han.
18 In the second a carbuncle, a sapphire and a jasper.
Apâhni e than dawkvah, emerald, sapphire hoi diamon han.
19 In the third a ligurius, an agate, and an amethyst:
Apâthum e than dawkvah, Jacinth, agate, hoi amethyst han.
20 In the fourth a chrysolite, an onyx, and a beryl. They shall be set in gold by their rows.
Apalinae than dawkvah, beril, onyx hoi jasper han. Hotnaw teh sui dawk koung bet e lah ao han.
21 And they shall have the names of the children of Israel: with twelve names shall they be engraved, each stone with the name of one according to the twelve tribes.
Aphu kaawm talungnaw ni, Isarel catounnaw e minparui e patetlah hlaikahni touh ni min rip a tawn awh han. Min thutnae dawk thuk e patetlah miphun pueng hah a minnaw patetlah miphun hlaikahni touh hane doeh.
22 And thou shalt make on the rational chains linked one to another of the purest gold:
Ephod a poutnae koevah, rui karawn e patetlah dingyin kathounge vei e hah sui hoi na sak han.
23 And two rings of gold, which thou shalt put in the two ends at the top of the rational.
Hahoi Ephod hanelah suilaikaw kahni touh na sak han. Laikaw kahni touh hah Ephod a poutnae koe na bet han.
24 And the golden chains thou shalt join to the rings, that are in the ends thereof:
Suidingyin kahni touh vei e hah Ephod apoutnae koe e laikaw kahni touh dawk na kan han.
25 And the ends of the chains themselves thou shalt join together with two hooks on both sides of the ephod, which is towards the rational.
Vei e dingyin hmo a vang lae hah suipahla kahni touh vei e dawkvah na kan han.
26 Thou shalt make also two rings of gold which thou shalt put in the top parts of the rational, in the borders that are over against the ephod, and look towards the back parts thereof.
Hahoi suilaikaw kahni touh na sak han. Hot teh Ephod kahni touh a pawi koe vaihma angki e a thung lah na mawp han.
27 Moreover also other two rings of gold, which are to be set on each side of the ephod beneath, that looketh towards the nether joining, that the rational may be fitted with the ephod,
Suilaikaw kahni touh alouklah na sak vaiteh, hot teh a hma lae vaihma angki kannae rahim lae kâpatawpnae koe kahawicalah kawng e, vaihma angki kannae van lah na mawp han.
28 And may be fastened by the rings thereof unto the rings of the ephod with a violet fillet, that the joining artificially wrought may continue, and the rational and the ephod may not be loosed one from the other.
Hahoi vaihma angki laikaw dawkvah, Ephod dawk e laikaw hah kamthim pahla hoi mekkhuisin han. Kahawicalah kawng e vaihma angki suinae teh avanlah ao thai nahane hoi Ephod hah vaihma angki hoi a kâphoi thai hoeh nahan,
29 And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the rational of judgement upon his breast, when he shall enter into the sanctuary, a memorial before the Lord for ever.
hottelah Aron teh, hmuen kathoung koe a cei toteh, BAWIPA hmalah pou a kamnue nahanelah, a lungthin dawk lawkcengnae ephod dawkvah, Isarel catounnaw e min lah ao han.
30 And thou shalt put in the rational of judgment doctrine and truth, which shall be on Aaron’s breast, when he shall go in before the Lord: and he shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel on his breast, in the sight of the Lord always.
Urim hoi thummim hah lawkcengnae Ephod dawk na hruek vaiteh, BAWIPA hmalah a cei toteh, Aron e lungthin dawk ao han. Hottelah Aron ni BAWIPA hmalah Isarel catounnaw lawkcengnae hah a lung dawk pou ao han.
31 And thou shalt make the tunick of the ephod all of violet,
Hahoi vaihma angkidung hah kamthim pahla hoi dueng na kawng awh han.
32 In the midst whereof above shall be a hole for the head, and a border round about it woven, as is wont to be made in the outmost parts of garments, that it may not easily be broken.
A lungui vah lû mahrawk nahanelah na paaw pouh han. Ka aw e a vak hoeh nahanelah, angki lahuen patetlah arai na yep han.
33 And beneath at the feet of the same tunick round about, thou shalt make as it were pomegranates, of violet, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, with little bells set between:
Kamthim, dikpaling, loukloukkaang e hoi sak e talepawnaw hai angki petkâkalup lah na sak han. Hote rahak dawkvah, suidinghling hoi petkâkalup lah na sak han.
34 So that there shall be a golden bell and a pomegranate, and again another golden bell and a pomegranate.
Hottelah angkidung dawkvah, suidinghling buet touh hoi talepaw, suidinghling hoi talepaw petkâkalup lah arai dawk na sak han.
35 And Aaron shall be vested with it in the office of his ministry, that the sound may be heard, when he goeth in and cometh out of the sanctuary, in the sight of the Lord, and that he may not die.
Aron ni thaw a tawk navah, hottelah a kamthoup han. Hottelah BAWIPA e hmalah hmuen kathoung dawk kâen tâconae tueng nah a pawlawk thai laipalah a due hoeh nahanelah na sak pouh han.
36 Thou shalt make also a plate of the purest gold: wherein thou shalt grave with engraver’s work, Holy to the Lord.
Hahoi suikathoung phen na sak vaiteh, avan vah kutnoutthutnae ca tarik e patetlah BAWIPA KOE THOUNGNAE telah na thut han.
37 And thou shalt tie it with a violet fillet, and it shall be upon the mitre,
Hot teh lupawk dawk ao nahanelah, lupawk e hmalah kamthim pahla rui hoi na bet han.
38 Hanging over the forehead of the high priest. And Aaron shall bear the iniquities of those things, which the children of Israel have offered and sanctified, in all their gifts and offerings. And the plate shall be always on his forehead, that the Lord may be well pleased with them.
Hot teh, Aron tampa dawk ao han. Isarel catounnaw ni kathounge a poehnonaw pueng a thoungsaknae, payonpakainae kaawm e hah Aron ni koung a phu han. Hot teh BAWIPA hmalah dâw han kamcu e lah ao thai nahanelah, a tampa dawk pou a ta han.
39 And thou shalt gird the tunick with fine linen, and thou shalt make a fine linen mitre, and a girdle of embroidered work.
Angkidung teh loukloukkaang e hoi kahawicalah na carouk vaiteh na kawng han. Loukloukkaang e hni hoiyah vaihma lupawk hah na sak vaiteh, taisawm hai na sak pouh han.
40 Moreover for the sons of Aaron thou shalt prepare linen tunicks, and girdles and mitres for glory and beauty:
Aron capanaw hanlah, angkidung hah na sak pouh vaiteh, taisawm hai ahnimouh han na sak pouh han. A bawilen sak nahan hoi kahawisakkung lah a bawilakhung na sak pouh han.
41 And with all these things thou shalt vest Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him. And thou shalt consecrate the hands of them all, and shalt sanctify them, that they may do the office of priesthood unto me.
Na hmau Aron hoi a capanaw hah na pathoup han, kai han vaihma thaw a tawk thai nahan satui na awi vaiteh, na hmoun vaiteh, na thoung sak han.
42 Thou shalt make also linen breeches, to cover the flesh of their nakedness from the reins to the thighs:
Hahoi caici lah a onae na ramuk nahanelah, loukloukkaang e hnadung na sak pouh vaiteh, a keng koehoi a phai totouh a pha han.
43 And Aaron and his sons shall use them when they shall go in to the tabernacle of the testimony, or when they approach the altar to minister in the sanctuary, lest being guilty of iniquity they die. It shall be a law for ever to Aaron, and to his seed after him.
Hot teh Aron hoi a capanaw kamkhuengnae lukkareiim koe kâennae tueng dawk thoseh, hmuen kathoung koe thaw tawk nahanlah bawknae khoungroe teng a cei nah thoseh a kamthoup awh han. Nahoeh pawiteh, yonpen e lah awm vaiteh, dout awh langvaih. Hot teh amamouh hoi ka tho hane catounnaw totouh a yungyoe hanlah caksak e phunglam doeh toe.
