Exodus 30
1 And you shall make an altar to burn incense on: of shittim wood shall you 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 the same.
Likhale lofanana mbali zonse. Mulitali masentimita 46, mulifupi masentimita 46, ndipo msinkhu masentimita 91. Nyanga zake zipangidwe kumodzi ndi guwalo.
3 And you shall overlay it with pure gold, the top thereof, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns thereof; and you shall make to 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 shall you make to it under the crown of it, by the two corners thereof, on the two sides of it shall you make it; and they shall be for places for the staves to bear it with.
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 you shall make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold.
Upange mizati yamtengo wa mkesha ndipo uyikute ndi golide.
6 And you shall put it before the veil that is by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will meet with you.
Uyike guwalo patsogolo pa nsalu yotchinga Bokosi la Chipangano. Apa ndi pamene ndizidzakumana nawe.
7 And Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense every morning: when he dresses the lamps, he shall burn incense on it.
“Aaroni ayenera kumafukiza lubani wonunkhira pa guwalo mmawa uliwonse. Pamene akukonza nyale zija afukizenso lubani.
8 And when Aaron lights the lamps at even, he shall burn incense on 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 You shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat offering; neither shall you pour 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 an atonement on the horns of it once in a year with the blood of the sin offering of atonements: once in the year shall he make atonement on it throughout your generations: it is most holy to 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 to Moses, saying,
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose,
12 When you take the sum of the children of Israel after their number, then shall they give every man a ransom for his soul to the LORD, when you number them; that there be no plague among them, when you number 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 passes among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel is twenty gerahs: ) an half shekel shall be the offering of 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 passes among them that are numbered, from twenty years old and above, shall give an offering to 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 half a shekel, when they give an offering to the LORD, to make an 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 you shall take the atonement money of the children of Israel, and shall appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; that it may be a memorial to the children of Israel before the LORD, to make an 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 to Moses, saying,
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose,
18 You shall also make a laver of brass, and his foot also of brass, to wash with: and you shall put it between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar, and you shall put water therein.
“Upange beseni lamkuwa lokhala ndi miyendo yamkuwanso. Uliyike pakati pa tenti ya msonkhano ndi guwa lansembe ndipo uthiremo madzi.
19 For 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 tabernacle of the congregation, they shall wash with water, that they die not; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn offering made by fire to 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 to Moses, saying,
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Mose,
23 Take you also to you principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of sweet calamus two hundred and fifty shekels,
“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 shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive an 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 you shall make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound after the are of the apothecary: it shall be an 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 you shall anoint the tabernacle of the congregation therewith, and the ark of the testimony,
Tsono uwagwiritse ntchito podzoza tenti ya msonkhano, Bokosi la Chipangano,
27 And the table and all his vessels, and the candlestick and his vessels, 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 his vessels, and the laver and his foot.
guwa lansembe yopsereza ndi ziwiya zake zonse, ndiponso beseni pamodzi ndi nsichi yake.
29 And you shall sanctify them, that they may be most holy: whatever touches them shall be holy.
Zonsezi uzipatule kuti zidzakhale zopatulika, ndipo chilichonse chimene chidzakhudza zimenezi chidzakhala chopatulika.
30 And you shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may minister to me in the priest’s office.
“Udzoze Aaroni ndi ana ake aamuna ndi kuwapatula kuti akhale ansembe onditumikira.
31 And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, This shall be an holy anointing oil to me throughout your generations.
Tsono awuze a Israeli kuti, mafuta wodzozera awa adzakhala wopatulika mpaka muyaya.
32 On man’s flesh shall it not be poured, neither shall you make any other like it, after the composition of it: it is holy, and it shall be holy to you.
Musadzadzozere munthu wamba mafuta amenewa, ndipo musadzapange mafuta wofanana ndi amenewa. Mafutawa ndi wopatulika ndipo akhale woyera kwa inu.
33 Whoever compounds any like it, or whoever puts any of it on a stranger, shall even 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 to Moses, Take to you sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum; these 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 you shall make it a perfume, a confection after the are of the apothecary, tempered together, pure and holy:
Uziphatikize pamodzi zonsezi ndi kupanga lubani monga amachitira mmisiri wopanga zonunkhira. Athire mchere ndipo akhale woyera ndi wopatulika.
36 And you shall beat some of it very small, and put of it before the testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation, where I will meet with you: it shall be to 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 as for the perfume which you shall make, you shall not make to yourselves according to the composition thereof: it shall be to you holy for the LORD.
Musapange lubani wanu potsatira njira iyi. Lubani yense wopangidwa mwa njira iyi akhale wopatulika, woperekedwa kwa Yehova.
38 Whoever shall make like to that, to smell thereto, shall even be cut off from his people.
Aliyense amene adzapanga wofanana naye kuti asangalale ndi fungo lake ayenera kuchotsedwa pakati pa anthu anzake.”
