Exodus 40
1 The Lord told Moses,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ:
2 “Put up the Tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting, on the first day of the first month of the year.
“Ũgaaka hema ĩyo nyamũre, nĩo Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri wa mbere.
3 Place the Ark of the Testimony inside it. Make sure the Ark is behind the veil.
Nĩũkaiga ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira thĩinĩ wayo, na ũhakanie ithandũkũ rĩu na gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio.
4 Bring in the table and put on it what's necessary. Bring in the lampstand too, and set up its lamps.
Ningĩ nĩũgatoonyia metha na ũmĩigĩrĩre indo ciayo, na ũcibange wega. Ningĩ ũtoonyie mũtĩ wa tawa, na ũũigĩrĩre matawa maguo.
5 Place the gold altar of incense in front of the Ark of the Testimony, and put up the screen at the entrance to the Tabernacle.
Ningĩ ũige kĩgongona gĩa thahabu gĩa gũcinĩrwo ũbumba mbere ya Ithandũkũ rĩu rĩa Ũira, na wĩkĩre gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio itoonyero-inĩ rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre.
6 Set up the altar of burnt offering opposite the entrance to the Tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting.
“Iga kĩgongona kĩa maruta ma njino mbere ya itoonyero rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre, na nĩyo Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo;
7 Place the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and put water in it.
ũige kĩraĩ gĩa gwĩthambĩrwo gatagatĩ ka Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo na kĩgongona, na ũgĩĩkĩre maaĩ.
8 Set up the courtyard that's around it, and put up the curtain for the courtyard entrance.
Aka nja ĩmĩthiũrũrũkĩrie, na wĩkĩre gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio itoonyero-inĩ rĩa nja ĩyo.
9 Use the anointing oil to anoint the Tabernacle and everything in it. Dedicate it and all its furniture to make it holy.
“Oya maguta ma gũitanĩrĩrio, na ũitĩrĩrie hema ĩyo nyamũre na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wayo; mĩamũre na indo ciayo ciothe, na nĩĩgatuĩka theru.
10 Anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils. Dedicate the altar and it will be especially holy.
Ningĩ ũitĩrĩrie maguta kĩgongona kĩa maruta ma njino na indo ciakĩo ciothe; wamũre kĩgongona kĩu, nakĩo nĩgĩgatuĩka gĩtheru mũno.
11 Anoint and dedicate the basin with its stand.
Itĩrĩria kĩraĩ gĩa gwĩthambĩrwo na kĩgũrũ gĩakĩo maguta, ũciamũre.
12 Take Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the Tent of Meeting and wash them there with water.
“Rehe Harũni na ariũ ake itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, na ũmathambie na maaĩ.
13 Then you are to put on Aaron the holy clothes, anoint him, and dedicate him, so that he may serve me as a priest.
Ningĩ ũhumbe Harũni nguo iria theru, ũmũitĩrĩrie maguta, na ũmwamũre nĩguo andungatĩre arĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
14 Have his sons come forward and dress them with tunics.
Rehe ariũ ake, ũmahumbe kanjũ.
15 Anoint them in the same way as you anointed their father, so that they can also serve me as priests. Their anointing makes their line priests forever, for generations to come.”
Maitĩrĩrie maguta o ta ũrĩa ũitĩrĩirie ithe wao, nĩguo mandungatĩre marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai. Gũitĩrĩrio maguta kwao nĩkũmatoonyia ũtungata-inĩ wa ũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa ũgũtũũra njiarwa-inĩ ciothe iria igooka.”
16 Moses carried out all the Lord's instructions.
Nake Musa agĩĩka maũndũ mothe o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
17 The Tabernacle was put up on the first day of the first month of the second year.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio hema ĩyo nyamũre ĩgĩakwo mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri wa mbere, mwaka-inĩ wa keerĩ.
18 When Moses put up the Tabernacle, he placed its stands, attached its frames, connected its crossbars, and erected its posts.
Rĩrĩa Musa aakire hema ĩyo nyamũre, nĩaigire itina handũ ha cio, na akĩrũgamia buremu, agĩtoonyia mĩgamba na akĩrũgamia itugĩ.
19 Then he spread the tent over the Tabernacle and placed the covering over the tent, as the Lord had ordered him to do.
Ningĩ agĩtambũrũkia hema igũrũ rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre na akĩigĩrĩra kĩhumbĩri igũrũ rĩa hema o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
20 Moses took the Testimony and put it in the Ark. He attached the poles to the Ark, and he placed the atonement cover on the top of the Ark.
Agĩcooka akĩoya ihengere cia Ũira, na agĩciiga thĩinĩ wa ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro. Akĩnyiitithania mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩraaya na ithandũkũ, na akĩiga gĩtĩ gĩa tha igũrũ rĩa ithandũkũ rĩu.
21 Then he carried the Ark into the Tabernacle. He put up the veil, and made sure the Ark of the Testimony was behind it, as the Lord had ordered him to do.
Ningĩ akĩrehe ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro thĩinĩ wa hema ĩyo nyamũre, na agĩĩkĩra gĩtambaya gĩa kũhakania na akĩhakania ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
22 Moses placed the table inside the Tent of Meeting on the north side of the Tabernacle, outside the veil.
Musa akĩiga metha thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo mwena wa gathigathini wa hema ĩyo nyamũre, nja ya gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio
23 He laid out the bread on it in the presence of the Lord, as the Lord had ordered him to do.
na akĩigĩrĩra mĩgate igũrũ rĩayo o hau mbere ya Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
24 He placed the lampstand in the Tent of Meeting opposite the table on the south side of the Tabernacle
Akĩiga mũtĩ wa kũigĩrĩrwo matawa thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo ũngʼetheire metha mwena wa gũthini wa hema ĩyo nyamũre,
25 and put up the lamps in the presence of the Lord, as the Lord had ordered him to do.
na agĩakia matawa macio mbere ya Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
26 Moses set up the gold altar in the Tent of Meeting, in front of the veil,
Musa agĩtoonyia kĩgongona gĩa thahabu thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo hau mbere ya gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio,
27 and he burned aromatic incense on it, as the Lord had ordered him to do.
na agĩcinĩra ũbumba ũrĩa mũnungi wega ho o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
28 Then he put up the screen at the entrance to the Tabernacle.
Ningĩ agĩcuuria gĩtambaya itoonyero-inĩ rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre.
29 He set up the altar of burnt offering near the entrance to the Tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting, and presented the burnt offering and the grain offering, as the Lord had ordered him to do.
Ningĩ akĩiga kĩgongona kĩa maruta ma njino hakuhĩ na itoonyero rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre, nĩyo Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, na akĩrutĩra magongona ma njino igũrũ rĩakĩo o na magongona ma ngano, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
30 He placed the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing.
Nĩaigire kĩraĩ gĩa gwĩthambĩrwo gatagatĩ ka Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo na kĩgongona na agĩgĩĩkĩra maaĩ ma gwĩthamba,
31 Moses, Aaron, and his sons used it to wash their hands and feet
nake Musa na Harũni na ariũ ake magĩtũmĩra maaĩ macio gwĩthamba moko na magũrũ.
32 They washed whenever they went into the Tent of Meeting or approached the altar, as the Lord had ordered Moses to do.
Nĩmethambaga hĩndĩ ciothe magĩtoonya Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo kana magĩkuhĩrĩria kĩgongona o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
33 Moses set up the courtyard around the Tabernacle and the altar, and he put up the curtain for the courtyard entrance. This marked the end of the work done by Moses.
Ningĩ Musa agĩaka nja gũthiũrũrũka hema ĩyo nyamũre na kĩgongona na agĩĩkĩra gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio itoonyero rĩa nja ĩyo. Na nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa akĩrĩkia wĩra ũcio.
34 Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the Tabernacle.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo itu rĩkĩhumbĩra Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, naguo riiri wa Jehova ũkĩiyũra hema ĩyo nyamũre.
35 Moses could not enter the Tent of Meeting because the cloud remained on it, and the glory of the Lord filled the Tabernacle.
Musa ndangĩahotire gũtoonya Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo tondũ itu rĩaikarĩte igũrũ rĩayo, naguo riiri wa Jehova ũkaiyũra hema ĩyo nyamũre.
36 Whenever the cloud rose from the Tabernacle, the Israelites would set off again on their journey.
Ngʼendo-inĩ ciothe cia andũ a Isiraeli-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe itu rĩoyagwo na igũrũ kuuma hema ĩyo nyamũre, nĩguo moimagaraga;
37 If the cloud did not rise, they wouldn't set out until it did.
no itu rĩĩaga kuoywo na igũrũ, nao makaaga kuumagara, nginya mũthenya ũrĩa rĩkoywo na igũrũ.
38 The cloud of the Lord stayed over the Tabernacle by day, and fire burned inside the cloud by night, so that it could be seen by every Israelite wherever they traveled.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio itu rĩa Jehova rĩaikaraga igũrũ wa hema ĩyo nyamũre mũthenya, naguo mwaki wakoragwo itu-inĩ rĩu ũtukũ, rĩgakĩonagwo nĩ nyũmba yothe ya Isiraeli mahinda mothe ngʼendo-inĩ ciao ciothe.
