< Exodus 37 >
1 And Bezaleel makes the Ark of shittim wood; two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height;
Bezaleli akafanya Sanduku la mbao za mshita. Mikono miwili na nusu urefu wake, na mkono mmoja na nusu upana wake, na mkono mmoja na nusu kimo chake.
2 and he overlays it with pure gold inside and outside, and makes a wreath of gold for it all around;
Kisha akalifunika kwa dhahabu safi ndani na nje na kulifanyia ukingo wa dhahabu kulizunguka pande zote.
3 and he casts four rings of gold for it on its four feet, even two rings on its one side, and two rings on its second side;
Kisha akalitengenezea pete nne za dhahabu, za juu ya miguu yake minne, pete mbili upande wake mmoja na pete mbili upande wake mwingine
4 and he makes poles of shittim wood, and overlays them with gold,
Kisha akafanya miti ya mshita na kuifunika kwa dhahabu.
5 and he brings in the poles into the rings, by the sides of the Ark, to carry the Ark.
Halafu akaitia miti hiyo kwenye zile pete zilizo pande za Sanduku ili kulibeba Sanduku.
6 And he makes a propitiatory covering of pure gold, two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth;
Naye akafanya kifuniko cha dhahabu safi. Mikono miwili na nusu urefu wake, na mkono mmoja na nusu upana wake.
7 and he makes two cherubim of gold; he has made them of beaten work at the two ends of the propitiatory covering—
Bezaleli akafanya makerubi wawili wa dhahabu. Kwa kazi ya kufua akawafanya kwenye miisho yote miwili ya kifuniko.
8 one cherub at the end on this [side] and one cherub at the end on that [side]; he has made the cherubim from [above] the propitiatory covering, at its two ends;
Kerubi mmoja kwenye mwisho ule, na yule kerubi mwingine kwenye mwisho huu. Aliwafanya makerubi juu ya kifuniko kwenye miisho yote miwili.
9 and the cherubim are spreading out wings on high, covering over the propitiatory covering with their wings, and their faces [are] toward one another; the faces of the cherubim have been toward the propitiatory covering.
Nao wakawa makerubi wanaonyoosha mabawa yao mawili kuelekea juu, wakisitiri kifuniko kwa mabawa yao, nazo nyuso zao zilikuwa zikielekeana. Nyuso za makerubi hao zilielekea kifuniko hicho.
10 And he makes the table of shittim wood; two cubits its length, and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height,
Bezaleli akafanya meza ya mbao za mshita. Mikono miwili urefu wake, na mkono mmoja upana wake, na mkono mmoja na nusu kimo chake.
11 and overlays it with pure gold, and makes a wreath of gold for it all around.
Halafu akaifunika kwa dhahabu safi na kufanya ukingo wa dhahabu kuizunguka pande zote.
12 And he makes a border for it of a handbreadth around, and makes a wreath of gold around for its border;
Kisha akafanya mzingo wa upana wa kiganja kuizunguka na kufanya ukingo wa dhahabu kwa ajili ya mzingo wake kuizunguka pande zote.
13 and he casts four rings of gold for it, and puts the rings on the four corners which [are] at its four feet;
Tena, akatengeneza pete nne za dhahabu kwa ajili yake na kuziweka pete hizo kwenye zile pembe nne zilizokuwa kwa ajili ya ile miguu minne.
14 the rings have been close by the border, places for poles to carry the table.
Pete hizo zilikuwa karibu na ule mzingo, ili kutegemeza ile miti ya kuibeba meza hiyo.
15 And he makes the poles of shittim wood, and overlays them with gold, to carry the table;
Halafu akafanya ile miti ya mshita na kuifunika kwa dhahabu ili kuibeba ile meza.
16 and he makes the vessels which [are] on the table, its dishes, and its bowls, and its cups, and the cups by which they pour out, of pure gold.
Baada ya hilo akafanya kutokana na dhahabu safi vile vyombo vilivyo juu ya meza, sahani zake na vikombe vyake na mabakuli yake na mitungi yake iliyotumiwa kumimina matoleo ya kinywaji.
17 And he makes the lampstand of pure gold; he has made the lampstand of beaten work, its base, and its branch, its calyxes, its knobs, and its flowers, have been of the same;
Kisha akafanya kinara cha taa cha dhahabu safi. Kwa kazi ya kufua akakifanya kinara cha taa. Pande zake na matawi yake, vikombe vyake, mafundo yake na maua yake vikatokea kwake.
18 and six branches are coming out of its sides, three branches of the lampstand out of its one side, and three branches of the lampstand out of its second side;
Na matawi sita yalikuwa yakitoka kwenye pande zake, matawi matatu ya kinara cha taa kutoka kwenye upande wake mmoja na matawi mengine matatu ya kinara cha taa kutoka kwenye ule upande wake mwingine.
19 three calyxes, made like almonds, in one branch, a knob and a flower; and three calyxes, made like almonds, in another branch, a knob and a flower; so for the six branches which are coming out of the lampstand.
Vikombe vitatu vyenye umbo la maua ya mlozi vilikuwa kwenye kikundi kimoja cha matawi, vifundo na maua yakifuatana; na vikombe vitatu vyenye umbo la maua ya mlozi vilikuwa kwenye kile kikundi kingine cha matawi, vifundo na maua yakifuatana. Hivyo ndivyo ilivyokuwa kwa yale matawi sita yaliyokuwa yakitoka katika kile kinara cha taa.
20 And in the lampstand [are] four calyxes, made like almonds, its knobs, and its flowers,
Na kwenye kile kinara cha taa kulikuwa na vikombe vinne vyenye umbo la maua ya mlozi, vifundo vyake na maua yake yakifuatana.
21 and a knob under the two branches of the same, and a knob under the two branches of the same, and a knob under the two branches of the same, [are] for the six branches which are coming out of it;
Na kile kifundo chini ya matawi mawili kilitoka kwake, na kifundo kilicho chini ya yale matawi mengine mawili kilitoka kwake, na kifundo kingine kilicho chini ya matawi mengine mawili zaidi kilitoka kwake, kwa ajili ya matawi sita yanayotoka katika kinara.
22 their knobs and their branches have been of the same; all of it one beaten work of pure gold.
Vifundo vyake na matawi yake vilitoka kwake, vyote vilikuwa kitu kimoja cha kazi ya kufua, cha dhahabu safi.
23 And he makes its seven lamps, and its snuffers, and its snuff-dishes, of pure gold;
Kisha akafanya taa zake saba na mikasi ya tambi zake na vyetezo vyake kutokana na dhahabu safi.
24 he has made it of a talent of pure gold, and with all its vessels.
Alikifanya kwa talanta ya dhahabu safi, hicho pamoja na vyombo vyake vyote.
25 And he makes the incense-altar of shittim wood; a cubit its length, and a cubit its breadth (square), and two cubits its height; its horns have been of the same;
Sasa akafanya madhabahu ya uvumba kutokana na mbao za mshita. Mkono mmoja urefu wake na mkono mmoja upana wake, ikiwa mraba, na mikono miwili kimo chake. Pembe zake zilitoka kwake.
26 and he overlays it with pure gold, around its top and its sides, and its horns; and he makes a wreath of gold for it all around;
Kisha akaifunika kwa dhahabu safi, upande wake wa juu na pande zake za kando kuizunguka na pembe zake, naye akafanya ukingo wa dhahabu kuizunguka pande zote.
27 and he has made two rings of gold for it under its wreath, at its two corners, at its two sides, for places for poles to carry it with them.
Naye akaifanyia pete mbili za dhahabu chini ya ukingo wake kwenye pande zake mbili, kwenye pande zake mbili zinazoelekeana, za kutegemeza ile miti ya kuibeba.
28 And he makes the poles of shittim wood, and overlays them with gold;
Kisha akafanya ile miti ya mshita na kuifunika kwa dhahabu.
29 and he makes the holy anointing oil, and the pure spice-incense—work of a compounder.
Tena akafanya yale mafuta yanayotumiwa kutia mafuta na ule uvumba safi uliotiwa manukato, kazi ya mtengenezaji wa marhamu.
