Exodus 31
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
2 See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:
“Laba, nnonze Bezaaleeri mutabani wa Uli, muzzukulu wa Kuuli, ow’omu kika kya Yuda;
3 and I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
era mmujjuzza Omwoyo wa Katonda, n’okumanya, n’obusobozi n’amagezi mu kukola ebitali bimu ebyemikono
4 to devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
okutetenkanya ebintu ebinaakolebwa mu zaabu ne ffeeza n’ekikomo, nga bwe binaafaanana,
5 and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all manner of workmanship.
okwola amayinja n’okugategeka, n’okwola emiti, era n’okukola byonna ebyemikono ebya buli ngeri.
6 And I, behold, I have appointed with him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee:
Ate mmulondeddeko Okoliyaabu mutabani wa Akisamaki, ow’omu kika kya Ddaani, okumuyamba. “Era abakugu abakola ebintu byonna ebya buli ngeri, mbawadde amagezi okukola bino byonna bye nkulagidde:
7 the tent of meeting, and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy-seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the Tent;
“Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, n’Essanduuko ey’Endagaano n’ekibikkako eky’entebe ey’okusaasira, awamu n’ebikozesebwa byonna mu Weema,
8 and the table and its vessels, and the pure candlestick with all its vessels, and the altar of incense;
emmeeza n’ebigenderako, ekikondo ekya zaabu omuka eky’ettaala n’ebigenderako, n’ekyoto eky’obubaane,
9 and the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels, and the laver and its base;
n’ekyoto eky’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebigenderako, n’ebbensani ne kw’etuula;
10 and the finely wrought garments, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest’s office;
n’ebyambalo ebyalukibwa obulungi, ebyambalo ebitukuvu ebya Alooni, kabona, n’ebyambalo bya batabani be bye baweererezaamu mu bwakabona;
11 and the anointing oil, and the incense of sweet spices for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.
n’amafuta ag’okufukibwa, n’ebyakaloosa akalungi ak’omu Kifo Ekitukuvu. “Byonna babikole nga bwe nakulagira.”
12 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
13 Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily ye shall keep my sabbaths: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD which sanctify you.
“Tegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri nti, Munaateekwanga okukuuma Ssabbiiti zange, kubanga ako ke kabonero akanaabeeranga wakati wammwe nange mu mirembe gyammwe gyonna, mulyoke mumanye nga Nze Mukama, Nze mbatukuza.
14 Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that profaneth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
“‘Munaakuumanga Ssabbiiti, kubanga lunaku lutukuvu. Buli anaaluweebuulanga waakufa; ne buli anaakolanga omulimu gwonna ku lunaku olwo waakuggibwa mu bantu be, attibwe.
15 Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day is a sabbath of solemn rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.
Emirimu ginaakolwanga mu nnaku mukaaga, naye olunaku olw’omusanvu ye Ssabbiiti ey’okuwummula, lunaku lwa Mukama lutukuvu. Buli anaakolanga omulimu ku lunaku lwa Ssabbiiti wa kuttibwa.
16 Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.
Noolwekyo abaana ba Isirayiri banaakumanga olunaku lwa Ssabbiiti, nga balujjukira mu mirembe gyabwe gyonna, ng’endagaano etaggwaawo.
17 It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
Kanaabeeranga kabonero wakati wange n’abaana ba Isirayiri emirembe gyonna, akalaga nti Mukama yakola eggulu n’ensi mu nnaku mukaaga, ne ku lunaku olw’omusanvu n’alekeraawo okukola, n’awummula.’”
18 And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, the two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
Awo Mukama bwe yamaliriza okwogera ne Musa ku lusozi Sinaayi, n’awa Musa ebipande bibiri eby’amayinja, eby’Endagaano Katonda gye yawandiika n’engalo ye, ye kennyini.
