Exodus 25
1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
2 'Speak unto the children of Israel, that they take for Me an offering; of every man whose heart maketh him willing ye shall take My offering.
“Gblɔ na Israelviwo be ame sia ame si alɔ̃ la, natsɔ nunana siawo dometɔ aɖewo vɛ nam.
3 And this is the offering which ye shall take of them: gold, and silver, and brass;
“Sika, klosalo, akɔbli,
4 and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair;
avɔ si nye blɔtɔ, avɔ dzĩ, aklala, gbɔ̃fuwo,
5 and rams' skins dyed red, and sealskins, and acacia-wood;

7 onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate.

8 And let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.
elabena medi be Israelviwo natu nɔƒe kɔkɔe aɖe nam, afi si manɔ le wo dome.
9 According to all that I show thee, the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the furniture thereof, even so shall ye make it.
“Nye nɔƒe sia anye agbadɔ. Mafia ale si nàtui kple nu siwo nàtsɔ aɖo atsyɔ̃ nɛ la wò.
10 And they shall make an ark of acacia-wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
“Tsɔ akasiati nàkpa aɖaka wòadidi sentimita alafa ɖeka kple ewo, wòakeke sentimita blaade-vɔ-ade, eye wòakɔ sentimita blaade-vɔ-ade.
11 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about.
Fa sika nyuitɔ ɖe eme kple egodo siaa, eye nàtsɔ sika nyuitɔ ke amli ɖe aɖaka la togawo kpe ɖo.
12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four feet thereof; and two rings shall be on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it.

14 And thou shalt put the staves into the rings on the sides of the ark, wherewith to bear the ark.
Tsɔ wo ƒo ɖe asigɛ eve siwo le aɖaka la ƒe axa ɖeka dzi la me hena aɖaka la tsɔtsɔ.
15 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark; they shall not be taken from it.
Womaɖe ati siawo le sikasigɛawo me o, ke boŋ woanɔ wo me ɖaa.
16 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee.
Ekema nàtsɔ nubabla si matsɔ na wò la ade aɖaka la me.
17 And thou shalt make an ark-cover of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
Tsɔ sika nyuitɔ wɔ nublanuikpɔkpɔzikpui si adidi sentimita alafa ɖeka kple ewo, eye wòakeke sentimita blaadre-vɔ-ade.
18 And thou shalt make two cherubim of gold; of beaten work shalt thou make them, at the two ends of the ark-cover.

19 And make one cherub at the one end, and one cherub at the other end; of one piece with the ark-cover shall ye make the cherubim of the two ends thereof.
Wɔ kerubi ɖeka kple amenuvevezikpui la, eye ɖeka anɔ nutunu la ƒe didime ƒe nu ɖeka.
20 And the cherubim shall spread out their wings on high, screening the ark-cover with their wings, with their faces one to another; toward the ark-cover shall the faces of the cherubim be.
Kerubiawo adze ŋgɔ wo nɔewo, eye woanɔ amenuvevezikpui la gbɔ kpɔm. Woakeke woƒe aʋalãwo ɖe sikanutunu la dzi.
21 And thou shalt put the ark-cover above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
Tsɔ nutunu la tu aɖaka la nu, eye nàtsɔ kpe siwo dzi woŋlɔ seawo ɖo siwo matsɔ na wò la de aɖaka la me.
22 And there I will meet with thee, and I will speak with thee from above the ark-cover, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.
Mado go wò le afi ma, aƒo nu kpli wò le amenuvevezikpui la tame, le kerubi eve siwo le nubablaɖaka tame la dome, eye matsɔ nubablakpe siwo dzi meŋlɔ nye sededewo na Israelviwo ɖo la na wò.
23 And thou shalt make a table of acacia-wood: two cubits shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.

26 And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four feet thereof.
Wɔ sikasigɛ ene na kplɔ̃ la, eye nàklã wo ɖe kplɔ̃ la ƒe axa eneawo dzi, woate ɖe afɔti eneawo ŋu.
27 Close by the border shall the rings be, for places for the staves to bear the table.

29 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and the pans thereof, and the jars thereof, and the bowls thereof, wherewith to pour out; of pure gold shalt thou make them.

31 And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick be made, even its base, and its shaft; its cups, its knops, and its flowers, shall be of one piece with it.
“Tsɔ sika nyuitɔ wɔ akaɖiti lae. Na akaɖiti blibo la nanye nu ɖeka; ele be woatu akaɖiti la ƒe afɔwo, eƒe titinati diditɔ, akaɖiawo kple seƒoƒoawo nanye nu blibo ɖeka.
32 And there shall be six branches going out of the sides thereof: three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof, and three branches of the candle-stick out of the other side thereof;
“Alɔ ade nanɔ akaɖiti la ƒe axawo dzi, etɔ̃ nanɔ akaɖiti la ƒe axawo kple eve dzi.
33 three cups made like almond-blossoms in one branch, a knop and a flower; and three cups made like almond-blossoms in the other branch, a knop and a flower; so for the six branches going out of the candlestick.
