< Exodus 30 >

1 And thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon; of acacia-wood shalt thou make it.
Upange guwa lamatabwa amtengo wa mkesha lofukizirapo lubani.
2 A cubit shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof; foursquare shall it be; and two cubits shall be the height thereof; the horns thereof shall be of one piece with it.
Likhale lofanana mbali zonse. Mulitali masentimita 46, mulifupi masentimita 46, ndipo msinkhu masentimita 91. Nyanga zake zipangidwe kumodzi ndi guwalo.
3 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, the top thereof, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns thereof; and thou shalt make unto it a crown of gold round about.
Ukute guwa lonse ndi golide wabwino kwambiri, pamwamba pake, mbali zonse zinayi, pamodzi ndi nyanga zake. Ndipo upange mkombero wagolide kuzungulira guwalo.
4 And two golden rings shalt thou make for it under the crown thereof, upon the two ribs thereof, upon the two sides of it shalt thou make them; and they shall be for places for staves wherewith to bear it.
Upange mphete ziwiri zagolide ndipo uzilumikize ku guwa mʼmunsi mwa mkombero, mphete ziwiri ku mbali zonse ziwiri zoyangʼanana. Mphetozo zizigwira nsichi zonyamulira guwalo.
5 And thou shalt make the staves of acacia-wood, and overlay them with gold.
Upange mizati yamtengo wa mkesha ndipo uyikute ndi golide.
6 And thou shalt put it before the veil that is by the ark of the testimony, before the ark-cover that is over the testimony, where I will meet with thee.
Uyike guwalo patsogolo pa nsalu yotchinga Bokosi la Chipangano. Apa ndi pamene ndizidzakumana nawe.
7 And Aaron shall burn thereon incense of sweet spices; every morning, when he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn it.
“Aaroni ayenera kumafukiza lubani wonunkhira pa guwalo mmawa uliwonse. Pamene akukonza nyale zija afukizenso lubani.
8 And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at dusk, he shall burn it, a perpetual incense before the LORD throughout your generations.
Aaroni ayenera kufukizanso lubani pamene ayatsa nyale madzulo kuti lubani akhale akuyaka nthawi zonse pamaso pa Yehova kwa mibado imene ikubwera.
9 Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt-offering, nor meal-offering; and ye shall pour no drink-offering thereon.
Pa guwapo usafukize lubani wachilendo kapena kuperekapo nsembe yopsereza kapena nsembe yaufa. Usathire pa guwapo ngakhale nsembe yachakumwa.
10 And Aaron shall make atonement upon the horns of it once in the year; with the blood of the sin-offering of atonement once in the year shall he make atonement for it throughout your generations; it is most holy unto the LORD.'
Aaroni azidzapereka nsembe yopepesera machimo pa nyanga za guwalo kamodzi pa chaka. Mwambowu uzidzachitika pogwiritsa ntchito magazi a nsembe yopepesera machimo, ndipo zizidzachitika mʼmibado yanu yonse. Choncho guwa lansembelo lidzakhala loyera ndi loperekedwa kwa Yehova.”
11 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose,
12 'When thou takest the sum of the children of Israel, according to their number, then shall they give every man a ransom for his soul unto the LORD, when thou numberest them; that there be no plague among them, when thou numberest them.
“Pamene ukuchita kalembera wa Aisraeli, munthu aliyense ayenera kupereka kwa Yehova chowombolera moyo wake pamene akuwerengedwa. Motero mliri sudzabwera pa iwo pamene ukuwawerenga.
13 This they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary — the shekel is twenty gerahs — half a shekel for an offering to the LORD.
Izi ndi zimene aliyense wolembedwa mu kawundula ayenera kupereka: theka la sekeli, kutanthauza ndalama zolemera magalamu asanu ndi limodzi malingana ndi kawerengedwe ka ndalama za ku Nyumba ya Mulungu. Paja sekeli imodzi ikulingana ndi magera makumi awiri. Theka la sekeli chidzakhala chopereka cha kwa Yehova.
14 Every one that passeth among them that are numbered, from twenty years old and upward, shall give the offering of the LORD.
Aliyense wolembedwa mu kawundula amene ali ndi zaka makumi awiri kapena kupitirira ayenera kupereka chopereka kwa Yehova.
15 The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less, than the half shekel, when they give the offering of the LORD, to make atonement for your souls.
Anthu olemera asapereke koposa theka la sekeli ndipo osauka asapereke kuchepera theka la sekeli pamene mukupereka nsembe kwa Yehova yowombolera miyoyo yanu.
16 And thou shalt take the atonement money from the children of Israel, and shalt appoint it for the service of the tent of meeting, that it may be a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD, to make atonement for your souls.'
Ulandire ndalama zopepeserazo kuchokera kwa Aisraeli ndipo zigwiritsidwe ntchito ya ku tenti ya msonkhano. Zoperekazi zidzakhala chikumbutso cha Aisraeli pamaso pa Yehova, ndiponso zowombolera miyoyo yanu.”
17 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose,
18 'Thou shalt also make a laver of brass, and the base thereof of brass, whereat to wash; and thou shalt put it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and thou shalt put water therein.
“Upange beseni lamkuwa lokhala ndi miyendo yamkuwanso. Uliyike pakati pa tenti ya msonkhano ndi guwa lansembe ndipo uthiremo madzi.
19 And Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet thereat;
Aaroni ndi ana ake azisamba mʼmanja ndi kutsuka mapazi awo ndi madzi amenewo.
20 when they go into the tent of meeting, they shall wash with water, that they die not; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to cause an offering made by fire to smoke unto the LORD;
Pamene akulowa mu tenti ya msonkhano, iwo asambe madziwa kuti asafe. Ndiponso pamene akupita kukatumikira ku guwa lansembe ndi kupereka nsembe yopsereza kwa Yehova,
21 so they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they die not; and it shall be a statute for ever to them, even to him and to his seed throughout their generations.'
azisamba mʼmanja mwawo ndi kutsuka mapazi kuti asadzafe. Limeneli ndi lamulo limene Aaroni, pamodzi ndi ana ndi zidzukulu zake mʼtsogolomo ayenera kumadzalitsatira mpaka muyaya.”
22 Moreover the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose,
23 'Take thou also unto thee the chief spices, of flowing myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty, and of sweet calamus two hundred and fifty,
“Utenge zonunkhira bwino kwambiri izi: makilogalamu asanu ndi limodzi a mure wamadzi, makilogalamu atatu a zonunkhira bwino za mtundu wa sinamoni, makilogalamu atatu a nzimbe yonunkhira bwino kwambiri,
24 and of cassia five hundred, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of olive oil a hin.
makilogalamu asanu ndi limodzi a mkesha. Zonsezi zikhale malingana ndi muyeso wa ku Nyumba ya Mulungu. Pakhalenso malita anayi a mafuta a olivi.
25 And thou shalt make it a holy anointing oil, a perfume compounded after the art of the perfumer; it shall be a holy anointing oil.
Ugwiritse ntchito zinthu zimenezi kupanga mafuta opatulika odzozera, mafuta onunkhira, apangidwe ndi mʼmisiri waluso lopanga zonunkhiritsa. Awa adzakhala mafuta opatulika odzozera.
26 And thou shalt anoint therewith the tent of meeting, and the ark of the testimony,
Tsono uwagwiritse ntchito podzoza tenti ya msonkhano, Bokosi la Chipangano,
27 and the table and all the vessels thereof, and the candlestick and the vessels thereof, and the altar of incense,
tebulo, ndi ziwiya zake zonse, choyikapo nyale ndi zipangizo zake, guwa lofukizirapo lubani,
28 and the altar of burnt-offering with all the vessels thereof, and the laver and the base thereof.
guwa lansembe yopsereza ndi ziwiya zake zonse, ndiponso beseni pamodzi ndi nsichi yake.
29 And thou shalt sanctify them, that they may be most holy; whatsoever toucheth them shall be holy.
Zonsezi uzipatule kuti zidzakhale zopatulika, ndipo chilichonse chimene chidzakhudza zimenezi chidzakhala chopatulika.
30 And thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and sanctify them, that they may minister unto Me in the priest's office.
“Udzoze Aaroni ndi ana ake aamuna ndi kuwapatula kuti akhale ansembe onditumikira.
31 And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying: This shall be a holy anointing oil unto Me throughout your generations.
Tsono awuze a Israeli kuti, mafuta wodzozera awa adzakhala wopatulika mpaka muyaya.
32 Upon the flesh of man shall it not be poured, neither shall ye make any like it, according to the composition thereof; it is holy, and it shall be holy unto you.
Musadzadzozere munthu wamba mafuta amenewa, ndipo musadzapange mafuta wofanana ndi amenewa. Mafutawa ndi wopatulika ndipo akhale woyera kwa inu.
33 Whosoever compoundeth any like it, or whosoever putteth any of it upon a stranger, he shall be cut off from his people.'
Wina aliyense amene adzapanga mafuta wonunkhira wofanana nawo kapena kudzozera mafutawa munthu wamba osati wansembe ayenera kuchotsedwa pakati pa anthu anzake.”
34 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Take unto thee sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum; sweet spices with pure frankincense; of each shall there be a like weight.
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Tenga muyeso wofanana wa zinthu zonunkhira izi: sitakate, onika, galibanumu pamodzi ndi lubani weniweni.
35 And thou shalt make of it incense, a perfume after the art of the perfumer, seasoned with salt, pure and holy.
Uziphatikize pamodzi zonsezi ndi kupanga lubani monga amachitira mmisiri wopanga zonunkhira. Athire mchere ndipo akhale woyera ndi wopatulika.
36 And thou shalt beat some of it very small, and put of it before the testimony in the tent of meeting, where I will meet with thee; it shall be unto you most holy.
Upere gawo lina mosalala kwambiri ndipo utapepo pangʼono ndi kuyika patsogolo pa Bokosi la Chipangano mu tenti ya msonkhano, kumene ine ndidzakumane nawe. Lubani ameneyu kwa inu adzakhala wopatulika kwambiri.
37 And the incense which thou shalt make, according to the composition thereof ye shall not make for yourselves; it shall be unto thee holy for the LORD.
Musapange lubani wanu potsatira njira iyi. Lubani yense wopangidwa mwa njira iyi akhale wopatulika, woperekedwa kwa Yehova.
38 Whosoever shall make like unto that, to smell thereof, he shall be cut off from his people.'
Aliyense amene adzapanga wofanana naye kuti asangalale ndi fungo lake ayenera kuchotsedwa pakati pa anthu anzake.”
