< Exodus 30 >

1 Thou shalt make also an altar to burn incense, of setim wood.
“Jiri osisi akashia rụọ ebe ịchụ aja ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ.
2 It shall be a cubit in length, and another in breadth, that is, foursquare, and two in height. Horns shall go out of the same.
Akụkụ anọ ya ga-aha nʼotu. Ogologo ya na obosara ya ga-adị iri sentimita anọ na ise. Ịdị elu ya ga-adị iri sentimita itoolu. Mpi ya niile ga-esi na ya pụta.
3 And thou shalt overlay it with the purest gold, as well as the grate thereof, as the walls round about and the horns. And thou shalt make to it a crown of gold round about,
Jiri ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha machie elu ya, akụkụ ya niile nakwa mpi ya niile. Ị ga-ejikwa ọlaedo kpụlite ọnụ ọnụ ya gburugburu.
4 And two golden rings under the crown on either side, that the bars may be put into them, and the altar be carried.
Kpụnye mgbaaka ọlaedo abụọ nʼokpuru ihe ahụ akpụlitere akpụlite, abụọ na ncherita ihu akụkụ ọbụla, ebe ga na-ejide mkpara e ji ebu ya.
5 And thou shalt make the bars also of setim wood, and shalt overlay them with gold.
Ị ga-eji osisi akashia mee mkpara, jiri ọlaedo machie ha.
6 And thou shalt set the altar over against the veil, that hangeth before the ark of the testimony before the propitiatory wherewith the testimony is covered, where I will speak to thee.
Ị ga-adọba ebe ịchụ aja ahụ nʼihu akwa mgbochi nke kpuchiri igbe iwu ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, nʼihu oche ebere ahụ dị nʼelu igbe iwu ọgbụgba ndụ, nʼebe m ga-ezute gị.
7 And Aaron shall burn sweet smelling incense upon it in the morning. When he shall dress the lamps, he shall burn it:
“Ụtụtụ niile, mgbe Erọn doziri oriọna, ọ ga-esure ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ahụ.
8 And when he shall place them in the evening, he shall burn an everlasting incense before the Lord throughout your generations.
Nʼanyasị kwa, mgbe ọ na-amụnye ọkụ nʼoriọna ahụ, ọ ga-esurekwa ihe nsure ọkụ. Ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ nke ga-adị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ.
9 You shall not offer upon it incense of another composition nor oblation, and victim, neither shall you offer libations.
Unu echekwala ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ na-adịghị nsọ nʼelu ya, maọbụ aja nsure ọkụ, maọbụ aja ihe oriri, unu awụpụla onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ nʼelu ya.
10 And Aaron shall pray upon the horns thereof once a year, with the blood of that which was offered for sin, and shall make atonement upon it in your generations. It shall be most holy to the Lord.
Otu ugbo nʼafọ Erọn ga-ekpuchi mmehie nʼelu mpi ya. Mmemme mkpuchi mmehie a nke a na-eme otu ugbo nʼafọ, aghaghị ịbụ nke e ji ọbara nke si nʼaja a chụrụ nʼihi mkpuchi mmehie, nʼihi ọgbọ niile nke na-abịa. A ga na-edo ebe ịchụ aja nsọ otu a. Nke a bụ ebe dịkarịsịrị nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị.”
11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Mgbe nke a gasịrị, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
12 When thou shalt take the sum of the children of Israel according to their number, every one of them shall give a price for their souls to the Lord, and there shall be no scourge among them, when they shall be reckoned.
“Mgbe ọbụla a gụrụ mmadụ ọnụ, onye Izrel ọbụla ga-akwụ Onyenwe anyị ụgwọ o ji gbara mkpụrụobi ya. Nke a dị mkpa, ka ihe otiti ọbụla ghara ịbịakwasị ha mgbe ị ga-agụ ha ọnụ.
13 And this shall every one give that passeth at the naming, half a sicle according to the standard of the temple. A sicle hath twenty obols. Half a sicle shall be offered to the Lord.
Ihe onye a gụrụ ọnụ ga-akwụ bụ ọkara shekel, dịka shekel nke ebe nsọ si dị. Ọkara shekel bụ iri gera abụọ. Ọkara shekel a bụ onyinye nye Onyenwe anyị.
14 He that is counted in the number from twenty years and upwards, shall give the price.
Ndị kwesiri inye onyinye a bụ ndị niile gbara iri afọ abụọ gbagoo. Ọ bụ ndị a kwesiri inye Onyenwe anyị onyinye a.
15 The rich man shall not add to half a sicle, and the poor man shall diminish nothing.
Ndị ọgaranya agaghị enye karịa ọkara shekel. Otu a kwa ndị ogbenye agaghị enye ihe dị ntakịrị karịa ọkara shekel. Nʼihi na onyinye a bụ onyinye unu na-enye Onyenwe anyị maka ikpuchiri mkpụrụobi unu mmehie.
16 And the money received which was contributed by the children of Israel, thou shalt deliver unto the uses of the tabernacle of the testimony, that it may be a memorial of them before the Lord, and he may be merciful to their souls.
Nabata ego niile ndị a site nʼaka ụmụ Izrel, ma jiri ya jee ozi dị nʼụlọ nzute. Ihe onyinye a ga-eme bụ ịkpọtụ uche Onyenwe anyị nʼebe unu nọ nʼihi mkpuchi mmehie maka ndụ unu.”
17 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Ọzọkwa, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị,
18 Thou shalt make also a brazen laver with its foot, to wash in: and thou shalt set it between the tabernacle of the testimony and the altar. And water being put into it,
“Jiri bronz kpụọ efere ukwu na ihe ndọkwasị ya, maka ịsa ihe. Wụnye mmiri nʼime ya, dọsa ya nʼetiti ụlọ nzute na ebe ịchụ aja.
19 Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and feet in it:
Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom ga na-asa ụkwụ na aka ha site na ya.
20 When they are going into the tabernacle of the testimony, and when they are to come to the altar, to offer on it incense to the Lord,
Mgbe ọbụla ha na-aba nʼụlọ nzute ahụ, ha ga-eji mmiri saa onwe ka ha ghara ịnwụ. Ọzọkwa, mgbe ha na-abịaru nso nʼebe ịchụ aja, maka ije ozi iche onyinye nʼihu Onyenwe anyị site nʼọkụ,
21 Lest perhaps they die. It shall be an everlasting law to him, and to his seed by successions.
ha ga-asa aka ha na ụkwụ ha, ka ha ghara ịnwụ. Nke a ga-abụ ụkpụrụ dịrị Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ.”
22 And the Lord spoke to Moses,
Ọzọkwa, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
23 Saying: Take spices, of principal and chosen myrrh five hundred sicles, and of cinnamon half so much, that is, two hundred and fifty sicles, of calamus in like manner two hundred and fifty.
“Were eso osisi na-esi isi ụtọ ndị a dị iche iche: máá, nke ọtụtụ ya ruru kilo isii, na ihe ruru kilo sinamọn abụọ na ụma itoolu, na kilo kalamus atọ,
24 And of cassia five hundred sicles by the weight of the sanctuary, of oil of olives the measure hin:
na kilo kashia isii, na lita anọ na ụma asatọ nke mmanụ oliv, dịka ọtụtụ shekel ebe nsọ ahụ si dị.
25 And thou shalt make the holy oil of unction, an ointment compounded after the art of the perfumer,
Ị ga-eji ya mepụta mmanụ nsọ, nke dị nsọ, nke a gwakọtara nke ọma dịka nke onye na-eme mmanụ na-esi isi ụtọ mere. Ọ ga-abụ mmanụ otite dị nsọ.
26 And therewith thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of the testimony, and the ark of the testament,
Ị ga-ewere mmanụ ahụ tee ụlọ nzute ahụ niile na igbe iwu ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ,
27 And the table with the vessels thereof, the candlestick and furniture thereof, the altars of incense,
na tebul ahụ, na ngwongwo ya niile, na nʼihe ịdọsa oriọna, na nʼihe niile dị ya nʼahụ, na nʼebe ịdọsa ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ,
28 And of holocaust, and all the furniture that belongeth to the service of them.
na nʼebe ịchụ aja nke aja nsure ọkụ, na ngwongwo ya niile, na nʼite ịsa ụkwụ na aka, na nʼebe a na-adọba ya.
29 And thou shalt sanctify all, and they shall be most holy: he that shall touch them shall be sanctified.
Ị ga-edo ha nsọ, ka ha bụrụ ihe dịkarịrị nsọ. Ihe ọbụla metụrụ ha ahụ ga-adịkwa nsọ.
30 Thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and shalt sanctify them, that they may do the office of priesthood unto me.
“Ị ga-eji mmanụ otite a tee Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom. Ha niile ga-adịkwa nsọ, bụrụ ndị na-ejere m ozi dịka ndị nchụaja.
31 And thou shalt say to the children of Israel: This oil of unction shall be holy unto me throughout your generations.
Gwa ụmụ Izrel okwu sị ha, ‘Nke a bụ mmanụ nsọ m, nke dị nsọ site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ.
32 The flesh of man shall not be anointed therewith, and you shall make none other of the same composition, because it is sanctified, and shall be holy unto you.
Agaghị awụsa ya nʼahụ mmadụ. O nwekwaghị onye kwesiri imepụta mmanụ otite dị otu a. Ọ dị nsọ, unu kwesikwara ido ya nsọ.
33 What man soever shall compound such, and shall give thereof to a stranger, he shall be cut off from his people.
A ga-esite nʼetiti ndị m wezuga onye ọbụla mere ụdị mmanụ isi ọma a, maọbụ tee ya onye na-abụghị onye nchụaja m.’”
34 And the Lord said to Moses: Take unto thee spices, stacte, and onycha, galbanum of sweet savour, and the clearest frankincense, all shall be of equal weight.
Mgbe ahụ Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Were ụda na-esi isi ụtọ, dịka eso osisi stakit, na ọnyịcha, na galbanọm, na ezigbo frankisens a na-agwaghị ihe, nke ọtụtụ ha niile ga-abụ otu ihe.
35 And thou shalt make incense compounded by the work of the perfumer, well tempered together, and pure, and most worthy of sanctification.
Mee ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ, nke a gwakọtara nke ọma, bụ ọrụ onye na-eme mmanụ isi ụtọ. Tinyekwa ya nnu, ka ọ bụrụ ihe nsure ọkụ a nụchara anụcha, nke dịkwa nsọ.
36 And when thou has beaten all into very small powder, thou shalt set of it before the tabernacle of the testimony, in the place where I will appear to thee. Most holy shall this incense be to you.
Gwerie ụfọdụ nʼime ya ka ọ dịka uzuzu. Wụsa ya nʼihu igbe iwu ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ nʼime ụlọ nzute, ebe m ga-ezute gị. Ọ ga-abụ ihe dịkarịsịrị nsọ nye unu.
37 You shall not make such a composition for your own uses, because it is holy to the Lord.
Unu emerela onwe unu nke dịka ọtụtụ ụdị ihe nsure ọkụ a. Hụta ya ka ihe dị nsọ nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ.
38 What man soever shall make the like, to enjoy the smell thereof, he shall perish out of his people.
Onye ọbụla meere onwe ya ụdị ihe nsure ọkụ a, ịnụ isisi ya, a ga-ekewapụ onye ahụ site nʼetiti ụmụnna ya.”
