< Exodus 31 >

1 The Lord told Moses,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
2 “I have chosen by name Bezalel, son of Uri, son of Hur, from the tribe of Judah.
“Mapaw Besaleel a ɔyɛ Uri babarima na ɔyɛ Hur nena a ofi Yuda abusua mu no
3 I have filled him with the Spirit of God giving him ability, creativity, and expertise in all kinds of craftsmanship.

5 he can cut gemstones to place in settings, and he can carve wood. He is a master of every craft.
sɛ ɔmfa nyɛ abo ne dua dwumfo ne adwinni ahorow nyinaa.
6 I have also chosen Oholiab, son of Ahisamach, from the tribe of Dan, to help him. I have also given all the craftsmen the skills needed to make everything that I have ordered you to make:
Bio, mayi Ahisamak ba Oholiab a ofi Dan abusua mu sɛ ɔnyɛ ne boafo. “Ɛno akyi no, mama adwumayɛfo no nyinaa nimdeɛ sononko bi sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, wobetumi adi dwuma biara a makyerɛ sɛ munni no:
7 the Tent of Meeting, the Ark of the Testimony and its atonement cover, and all the other furniture in the Tent:
“Ahyiae Ntamadan, Apam Adaka ne mpata agua ne Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu ahyehyɛde nkae no nyinaa;
8 the table with its equipment, the pure gold lampstand with all its equipment, the altar of incense,
ɔpon no ne so nneɛma, sikakɔkɔɔ kaneadua ne ho nneɛma, ohuam afɔremuka;
9 the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin plus its stand;
ɔhyew afɔremuka ne ho nneɛma, nsankason ne ne nnyinaso;
10 as well as the woven clothes for both Aaron the priest and for his sons to serve as priests,
ɔsɔfo Aaron ntade kronkron fɛɛfɛ no ne ne mma ntade bere a wɔsom sɛ asɔfo no;
11 as well as anointing oil and fragrant incense for the Holy Place. They are to make them following all the instructions I have given you.”
ne ɔsra ngo ne Kronkronbea hɔ aduhuam no. “Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔfa kwan a mɛkyerɛ wo no so na wɔyɛ eyinom nyinaa.”
12 The Lord told Moses,
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
13 “Tell the Israelites, ‘It's absolutely essential that you keep my Sabbaths. The Sabbath will be a sign between me and you for generations to come, so that you'll know that I am the Lord who makes you holy.
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfo no se, ‘Sɛ edu Homeda a, monhome. Eyi ne nsɛnkyerɛnne a ɛda me ne mo ne awo ntoatoaso a ɛbɛba no ntam, na moahu sɛ mene Awurade a meyɛ mo kronkron no.’
14 You shall keep the Sabbath because it is holy to you. Anyone who dishonors it must be killed. Anyone who works on that day must be cut off from their people.
“‘Munni Homeda no, efisɛ ɛyɛ da kronkron. Obiara a obebu saa mmara yi so no, obewu. Na nea ɔbɛyɛ adwuma saa da no nso, wobekum no.
15 Six days you can work, but the seventh day is to be a Sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord. Anyone who does any work on the Sabbath day must be killed.
Nnansia na mode bɛyɛ adwuma. Na nnanson so no yɛ Homeda a wɔntoto no ase a ɛyɛ kronkron ma Awurade. Ɛsɛ sɛ wokum obiara a ɔbɛyɛ adwuma Homeda no.
16 The Israelites must keep the Sabbath, observing the Sabbath as an everlasting agreement for generations to come.
Ɛsɛ sɛ Israelfo no di Homeda no, wonni mma awo ntoatoaso no nhu sɛ ɛyɛ apam afebɔɔ.
17 It's a sign between me and the Israelites forever, for the Lord made the heavens and the earth in six days, but on the seventh day he stopped and he rested.’”
Ɛbɛyɛ daa apam a ɛda me ne Israelfo ntam no ho nsɛnkyerɛnne. Efisɛ nnansia mu na Awurade de bɔɔ ɔsoro ne asase, na ɔhomee da a ɛto so ason no.’”
18 When the Lord finished speaking with Moses on Mount Sinai, he gave him the two tablets of the Testimony, stone tablets written on by the finger of God.
