Exodus 40

1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,

2 “On the first day of the month, in the first month, you raise up the Dwelling Place of the Tent of Meeting,

“ʻI he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻoe ʻuluaki māhina, te ke fokotuʻu ʻae fale tapu ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai.

3 and have set the Ark of the Testimony [in] there, and have covered over the Ark with the veil,

Pea te ke ʻai ki ai ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava, pea ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae puha ʻae puipui.

4 and have brought in the table, and set its arrangement in order, and have brought in the lampstand, and caused its lamps to go up.

Pea te ke ʻomi ki ai ʻae palepale, pea ke ʻai ʻo fakatonutonu ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku totonu ke ʻai ki ai; pea ke ʻomi ki ai ʻae tuʻunga maama, ʻo tutu ʻae ngaahi maama ʻo ia.

5 And you have put the golden altar for incense before the Ark of the Testimony, and have put the covering of the opening to the Dwelling Place,

Pea te ke tuku ʻae feilaulauʻanga koula ki he meʻa namu kakala, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe puha ʻoe fuakava, pea ʻai ʻae puipui tautau ki he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki.

6 and have put the altar of the burnt-offering before the opening of the Dwelling Place of the Tent of Meeting,

Pea te ke fokotuʻu ʻae feilaulauʻanga ʻoe feilaulau tutu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe matapā ʻoe fale tapu ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai.

7 and have put the laver between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and have put water [in] there.

Pea te ke fokotuʻu ʻae sene ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, mo e feilaulauʻanga, pea ke ʻai ki ai ʻae vai.

8 And you have set the court all around, and have placed the covering of the gate of the court,

Pea te ke fokotuʻu hono lotoʻā ʻo takatakai ia, pea tautau hake hono puipui ʻi he matapā ʻoe lotoʻā.

9 and have taken the anointing oil, and anointed the Dwelling Place, and all that [is] in it, and hallowed it, and all its vessels, and it has been holy;

“Pea te ke ʻave ʻae lolo tākai, ʻo tākai ʻaki ʻae fale fehikitaki, mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai, mo ke fakatapui ia, mo hono ngaahi nāunau kotoa pē ʻo ia: pea ʻe māʻoniʻoni ia.

10 and you have anointed the altar of the burnt-offering, and all its vessels, and sanctified the altar, and the altar has been most holy;

Pea te ke tākai ʻae feilaulauʻanga ʻoe feilaulau tutu, mo hono ngaahi nāunau kotoa pē, ʻo fakatapui ʻae feilaulauʻanga: pea ʻe hoko ia ko e feilaulauʻanga fungani māʻoniʻoni.

11 and you have anointed the laver and its base, and sanctified it.

Pea te ke tākai ʻae sene mo hono tuʻunga, ʻo fakatapui ia.

12 And you have brought Aaron and his sons near to the opening of the Tent of Meeting, and have bathed them with water;

“Pea te ke ʻomi ʻa ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha ki he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ʻo kaukauʻi ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae vai.

13 and you have clothed Aaron with the holy garments, and anointed him, and sanctified him, and he has acted as priest to Me.

Pea te ke ʻai kia ʻElone ʻae ngaahi kofu māʻoniʻoni, pea tākai ia, ʻo fakatapui ia; koeʻuhi ke ne ngāue kiate au ʻi he ngāue fakataulaʻeiki.

14 And you bring his sons near, and have clothed them with coats,

Pea te ke ʻomi hono ngaahi foha, ʻo fakakofuʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae ngaahi kofutuʻa.

15 and anointed them as you have anointed their father, and they have acted as priests to Me, and their anointing has been to them for a continuous priesthood throughout their generations.”

Pea te ke tākai ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko hoʻo tākai ʻenau tamai, koeʻuhi ke nau ngāue kiate au ʻi he ngāue fakataulaʻeiki: he ko honau tākai ia ki he ngāue fakataulaʻeiki moʻoni ʻo taʻengata ʻi honau toʻutangata kotoa pē tuku fakaholo.”

16 And Moses does according to all that YHWH has commanded him; so he has done.

Pea naʻe fai ia ʻe Mōsese: ʻo hangē ko e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kiate ia, naʻe pehē ʻene fai.

17 And it comes to pass, in the first month, in the second year, on the first of the month, the Dwelling Place has been raised up;

Pea ʻi he ʻuluaki māhina ʻi hono ua ʻoe taʻu, ʻi he ʻuluaki [ʻaho ]ʻoe māhina, naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe fokotuʻu hake ʻae fale fehikitaki.

18 and Moses raises up the Dwelling Place, and sets its sockets, and places its boards, and places its bars, and raises its pillars,

Pea naʻe fokotuʻu hake ʻe Mōsese ʻae fale fehikitaki, ʻo ne fakamaʻu hono ngaahi tuʻunga, pea naʻe fokotuʻu hake ʻa hono ngaahi laupapa, pea ʻai ki ai hono ngaahi ʻakau fakamaʻu, pea naʻe fokotuʻu hono ngaahi pou.

19 and spreads the tent over the Dwelling Place, and puts the covering of the tent on it above, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

Pea naʻa ne folahi atu ʻae fakapulonga ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he fale fehikitaki, pea naʻe ʻai hono fakapulonga ʻe taha ki ai ʻi ʻolunga ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.

20 And he takes and puts the Testimony into the Ark, and sets the poles on the Ark, and puts the propitiatory covering on the Ark above;

Pea naʻa ne ʻave ʻae fuakava ʻo ne ʻai ia ki he puha, pea naʻe ʻai ʻae ongo ʻakau haʻamo ki he puha, pea naʻe hili ʻae nofoʻanga ʻaloʻofa ki ʻolunga ʻi he puha.

21 and brings the Ark into the Dwelling Place, and places the veil of the covering, and covers over the Ark of the Testimony, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae puha ki loto ʻi he fale fehikitaki, pea naʻe fokotuʻu ai ʻae puipui ʻufiʻufi, pea naʻe ʻufiʻufi ai ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.

22 And he puts the table in the Tent of Meeting, on the side of the Dwelling Place northward, at the outside of the veil,

Pea naʻa ne tuku ʻae palepale ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ki he potu tokelau ʻoe fale fehikitaki, ʻituʻa ʻi he puipui.

23 and sets in order the arrangement of bread on it, before YHWH, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

Pea naʻa ne tuku lelei ʻi ai ʻae mā, ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova; ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.

24 And he puts the lampstand in the Tent of Meeting, opposite the table, on the side of the Dwelling Place southward,

Pea naʻa ne ʻai ʻae tuʻunga maama ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ʻo hanga tonu atu ki he palepale, ʻi he potu tonga ʻoe fale fehikitaki.

25 and causes the lamps to go up before YHWH, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

Pea naʻa ne tutu ʻae ngaahi maama ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova; ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.

26 And he sets the golden altar in the Tent of Meeting, before the veil,

Pea naʻa ne ʻai ʻae feilaulauʻanga koula ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai ʻi he ʻao ʻoe puipui:

27 and makes incense on it—spice-incense—as YHWH has commanded Moses.

Pea naʻa ne tutu ʻae meʻa namu kakala ʻi hono funga ʻo ia; ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.

28 And he sets the covering [at] the opening of the Dwelling Place,

Pea naʻa ne tautau hake ʻae puipui ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki.

29 and he has set the altar of the burnt-offering [at] the opening of the Dwelling Place of the Tent of Meeting, and causes the burnt-offering to go up on it, and the present, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

Pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻae feilaulauʻanga ʻoe meʻa tutu ʻo ofi ki he matapā ʻoe fale tapu ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ʻo ne ʻatu ʻi ai ʻae feilaulau tutu, mo e feilaulau meʻakai; ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.

30 And he puts the laver between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and puts water [in] there for washing,

Pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻae sene ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai mo e feilaulauʻanga, pea naʻe ai ki ʻai ʻae vai, ke kaukau ʻaki.

31 and Moses and Aaron and his sons have washed their hands and their feet at the same;

Pea ko Mōsese mo ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha naʻa nau fanofano honau nima, mo kaukauʻi honau vaʻe ʻi ai:

32 in their going into the Tent of Meeting, and in their drawing near to the altar, they wash, as YHWH has commanded Moses.

‌ʻI heʻenau hū ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, pea ʻi heʻenau haʻu ʻo ofi ki he feilaulauʻanga, naʻa nau kaukau; ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.

33 And he raises up the court all around the Dwelling Place, and around the altar, and places the covering of the gate of the court; and Moses completes the work.

Pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻae lotoʻā ʻo fakatakamilo ki he fale fehikitaki, mo e feilaulauʻanga, ʻo fokotuʻu hake ʻae puipui ki he matapā ʻoe lotoʻā. Pea naʻe fakaʻosi pehē ʻe Mōsese ʻae ngāue.

34 And the cloud covers the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of YHWH has filled the Dwelling Place;

Pea hili ia naʻe ʻufiʻufi leva ʻe he ʻao ʻae fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, pea naʻe fakafonu ʻe he nāunau ʻo Sihova ʻae fale fehikitaki.

35 and Moses has not been able to go into the Tent of Meeting, for the cloud has dwelt on it, and the glory of YHWH has filled the Dwelling Place.

Pea naʻe ʻikai mafai ʻe Mōsese ke hū ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ko e meʻa ʻi he nofomaʻu ki ai ʻae ʻao, pea naʻe fakafonu ʻe he nāunau ʻo Sihova ʻae fale fehikitaki.

36 And in the going up of the cloud from off the Dwelling Place the sons of Israel journey in all their journeys;

Pea ka toʻo hake ʻae ʻao mei heʻene fakamalumalu ʻae fale fehikitaki, naʻe fononga ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi honau ngaahi fononga kotoa pē:

37 and if the cloud does not go up then they do not journey, until the day of its going up.

Pea kapau naʻe ʻikai toʻo hake ʻae ʻao, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau fononga, kaeʻoua ke hoko ʻae ʻaho kuo toʻo hake ai ia.

38 For the cloud of YHWH [is] on the Dwelling Place by day, and fire is in it by night, before the eyes of all the house of Israel in all their journeys.

He naʻe fakamalumalu ʻae fale fehikitaki ʻe he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi he ʻaho, pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae afi ʻi he poʻuli, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fale kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻi honau ngaahi fononga kotoa pē.
