Exodus 40
1 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
Afei Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
2 On the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
“Bosome a ɛdi ɛkan no ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan no na si Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no.
3 And thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony, and separate the ark with the vail.
Wosi wie a, fa Apam Adaka a Mmaransɛm Edu no wɔ mu no si mu. Na fa ntwamutam no tware Apam Adaka no anim ma ɛnhyɛ kronkron mu kronkron hɔ.
4 And thou shalt bring in the table, and arrange the order of the showbread upon it; and thou shalt bring in the candlestick, and light the lamps thereof.
Afei, fa ɛpono no bɛsi hɔ na fa ɛho nneɛma nyinaa gu so na fa kaneadua no bra na sɔ kanea no.
5 And thou shalt set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the testimony; and thou shalt put up the hanging at the door to the tabernacle.
Fa sikakɔkɔɔ afɔrebukyia a wɔbɛhye aduhwam wɔ so no bɛsi Apam Adaka no anim. Fa ɛpono no nkatanimu sɛn Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ano.
6 And thou shalt set the altar of burnt-offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
“Fa ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ afɔrebukyia no si Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ɛkwan ano.
7 And thou shalt set the laver between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar, and thou shalt put water therein.
Fa atam no si Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ne afɔrebukyia no ntam na hyɛ no nsuo ma.
8 And thou shalt set up the court round about, and put up the hanging at the gate of the court.
Afei, siesie adihɔ bi twa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ho hyia na fa nsɛnanimu no sɛn ne kwan no ano.
9 And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that is therein; and thou shalt hallow it, with all its vessels, and it shall be holy.
“Fa srango no na pete gu Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no so baabiara ne biribiara a ɛwɔ mu ne nneɛma a ɛwɔ hɔ nyinaa ne nkonnwa so, na fa te ho.
10 And thou shalt anoint the altar of burnt-offering, and all its vessels; and thou shalt sanctify the altar, and the altar shall be most holy.
Ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ afɔrebukyia no ne ɛho nneɛma nyinaa nso, pete ɔsra ngo no bi gu so na te ho na ɛnyɛ kronkron.
11 And thou shalt anoint the laver with its foot, and sanctify it.
Afei, fa ngo no bi sra atam no ne ne ntaamu no so fa te ho.
12 And thou shalt bring near Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.
“Afei, fa Aaron ne ne mmammarima no bra Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ɛkwan ano na fa nsuo hohoro wɔn ho
13 And thou shalt clothe Aaron with the holy garments; and thou shalt anoint him, and sanctify him, that he may be a priest unto me.
na fa atadeɛ kronkron no hyɛ Aaron, na sra no ngo na ne ho nte na ɔmmɛyɛ me ɔsɔfoɔ.
14 And his sons shalt thou bring near, and clothe them with coats:
Afei, fa ne mmammarima no bra na fa wɔn ntadeɛ hyehyɛ wɔn
15 And thou shalt anoint them, as thou hast anointed their father, that they may be priests unto me; and this shall be, that their anointing shall be unto them for an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.
na pete ngo gu wɔn so sɛdeɛ woyɛɛ wɔn agya no, sɛdeɛ wɔbɛsom me sɛ asɔfoɔ. Wɔn ngosra no bɛtena hɔ daa firi awo ntoatoasoɔ so akɔsi awo ntoatoasoɔ so. Na daa wɔn asefoɔ bɛyɛ asɔfoɔ.”
16 And Moses did so; all, just as the Lord had commanded him, so did he.
Enti, Mose kɔ kɔyɛɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade akyerɛ no no.
17 And it came to pass in the first month in the second year, on the first of the month, that the tabernacle was reared up.
Afe a ɛtɔ so mmienu no mu bosome a ɛdi ɛkan no ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan no, wɔkekaa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no sisii animu.
18 And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and placed its sockets, and set up its boards, and put in its bars, and reared up its pillars.
Mose sii Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no; ɔde nsisisoɔ no sisii wɔn afa, de nnyinasoɔ no hyehyɛɛ mu de mmeamu nnua beabeaa mu de mpunan sisii wɔn afa.
19 And he spread the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent over it above; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Afei, ɔde nkurusoɔ no kuruu mponnwa no so de ne ngugusoɔ guguu so sane de ngugusoɔ a ɛdi akyire kuruu so sɛdeɛ Awurade se ɔnyɛ no.
20 And he took and put the testimony into the ark, and placed the staves on the ark; and he put the mercy-seat upon the ark above.
Ɔde aboɔ a wɔatwerɛ Mmaransɛm Edu no wɔ so no guu Apam Adaka no mu de nnua a wɔdebɛsoa no sosɔɔ mu. Ɔde ne nkatasoɔ a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ayɛ a ɛyɛ mpata nkatasoɔ no kataa so.
21 And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the vail of the separation, and made therewith a separation for the ark of the testimony; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Afei, ɔde Apam Adaka no bɛsii Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu de ntwamutam no twaa mu, sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no.
22 And he put the table in the tabernacle of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle, northward, without the vail.
Afei, ɔde ɛpono no sii Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no atifi fam wɔ ntwamutam no akyi,
23 And he arranged upon it the order of bread before the Lord; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
de Ɔkyerɛ Burodo no too so wɔ Awurade anim sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no.
24 And he placed the candlestick in the tabernacle of the congregation, opposite the table, on the side of the tabernacle, southward.
Ɔde kaneadua no sii ɛpono no nkyɛn wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no anafoɔ fam.
25 And he lighted the lamps before the Lord; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Afei, ɔsɔɔ kanea no wɔ Awurade anim sɛdeɛ Awurade kyerɛɛ no no pɛpɛɛpɛ,
26 And he placed the golden altar in the tabernacle of the congregation before the vail.
ɛnna ɔde sikakɔkɔɔ afɔrebukyia sii ntwamutam no ho pɛɛ wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu.
27 And he burnt thereon the incense of spices; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Afei, wɔde ohwam hyee nnuhwam sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no.
28 And he put up the hanging at the door to the tabernacle.
Ɔde Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ano nsɛnanotam sɛnee ano.
29 And the altar of burnt-offering he placed by the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation; and he offered upon it the burnt-offering and the meat-offering; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Ɔde afɔrebukyia a wɔbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ wɔ so no si bɛn Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan ɛkwan no ano, ɛnna ɔbɔɔ so ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne aduane afɔdeɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no.
30 And he set the laver between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar, and put water there, for washing.
Yei akyi, ɔde atam a wɔsi mu nneɛma no sii Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ne afɔrebukyia no ntam na wɔhyɛɛ no nsuo ma sɛdeɛ asɔfoɔ no bɛnya bi ahohoro wɔn ho.
31 And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed therefrom their hands and their feet.
Mose ne Aaron ne Aaron mmammarima hohoroo wɔn nsa ho ne wɔn nan ase wɔ hɔ.
32 When they went in unto the tabernacle of the congregation, and when they came near unto the altar, they washed themselves; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Ɛberɛ biara a wɔbɛfa afɔrebukyia no ho akɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu no, wɔgyina hohoroo wɔn ho sɛdeɛ Awurade kyerɛɛ Mose no.
33 And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and put up the hanging of the gate of the court; and so did Moses finish the work.
Ɔsii biribi twaa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ne afɔrebukyia no ho hyiaeɛ na wɔde nsɛnanotam sɛnee ano. Enti Mose yɛɛ yei de wiee nʼadwumayɛ.
34 And the cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
Omununkum no bɛkataa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no so maa Awurade animuonyam hyɛɛ no ma.
35 And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation; because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
Esiane sɛ na omununkum no asi wɔ hɔ no enti, Mose antumi ankɔ mu na Awurade animuonyam hyɛɛ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ma.
36 And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel were wont to go onward in all their journeyings.
Ɛberɛ biara a omununkum no bɛpagya ne ho atu atene no, na Israelfoɔ no nso di akyire.
37 But if the cloud was not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that is was taken up.
Na sɛ ɛgyina a, na wɔn nso agyina kɔsi sɛ ɛbɛtu atene bio.
38 For the cloud of the Lord was upon the tabernacle by day, and a fire was by night on it, before the eyes of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeyings.
Awiaberɛ mu deɛ, Awurade omununkum no gyina Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no so na sɛ ɛduru anadwo a, na ogya asɔ wɔ omununkum no mu sɛdeɛ Israelfoɔ no nyinaa bɛhunu. Yei toaa so saa ara wɔ wɔn akwantuo no nyinaa mu.
