Exodus 28
1 Thou thyself, therefore bring near unto thee—Aaron thy brother and his sons with him out of the midst of the sons of Israel, that they may minister as priests unto me, —Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar sons of Aaron.
“Ugbu a, site nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel kpọbata nwanne gị nwoke Erọn, ya na ụmụ ya ndị ikom, bụ Nadab, na Abihu, na Elieza na Itama. Ka ha jeere m ozi dịka ndị nchụaja.
2 And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, —for glory and for beauty.
Meere Erọn nwanne gị nwoke uwe nsọ, nke ga-enye ya ugwu na nsọpụrụ.
3 Thou thyself, therefore, shalt speak unto all the wise-hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, —and they shall make Aaron’s garments, to hallow him for ministering as priest unto me.
Gwa ndị niile nwere onyinye ǹka nʼịdụ akwa, bụ ndị m nyere amamihe nʼihe ndị a, sị ha dụọrọ Erọn uwe pụrụ iche, nke e ji edo ya nsọ, ime ya onye na-ejere m ozi dịka onye nchụaja.
4 These, therefore are the garments which they shall make—a breastpiece, and an ephod and a robe, and a tunic of checker work, a turban and a girdle, —so shall they make holy garments for Aaron thy brother and for his sons, for ministering as priests unto me.
Nke a bụ ụdị uwe ha ga-adụ: Ihe mgbochi obi, efọọd, uwe ime ahụ akpara akpa na-enweghị aka na uwe mwụda buru ibu, na uwe ime ahụ nke tụrụ agwa agwa na akwa a na-atụhị nʼisi na nke a na-eke nʼukwu. Ha ga-adụrụ Erọn nwanne gị nwoke na ụmụ ya ndị ikom uwe ndị a dị nsọ. Ka ha na-ejere m ozi dịka ndị nchụaja.
5 They themselves, therefore, shall take the gold, and the blue and the purple, —and the crimson, and the fine linen.
Ka ha jiri ogho ọlaedo, nke na-acha anụnụ anụnụ, nke ngwakọta anụnụ na uhie, nke uhie uhie nakwa nke ezi akwa ọcha dụọ ha.
6 And they shall make the ephod, —of gold, blue and purple crimson and fine-twined linen, the work of a skilful weaver.
“Weere ogho ọlaedo, na nke na-acha anụnụ anụnụ, na ngwakọta anụnụ na uhie, na uhie uhie na ezi akwa ọcha a kpara nke ọma mee efọọd ahụ, nke bụ akaọrụ onye ǹka.
7 Two joining shoulderpieces, shall there be to it upon the two extremities thereof that it may be joined together,
Ọ ga-enwe akwa nʼubu ya abụọ nke e ji ejikọta ọnụ nkuku ya abụọ, ka e nwe ike na-ekechisi ya ike.
8 And the curious band for fastening it, that is upon it, like the work thereof of the same, shall it be, —of gold blue and purple and crimson and fine-twined linen,
Ihe okike nke ukwu ahụ nke onye ǹka kpaziri nke ọma ga-adị ka ya. Ya na efọọd ahụ bụ otu, nke e ji ogho na-acha edo edo, nke anụnụ anụnụ, na ngwakọta anụnụ na uhie na uhie uhie, nakwa nke ezi akwa ọcha a kpara nke ọma mee.
9 And thou shalt take two onyx stones, —and engrave upon them the names of the sons of Israel:
“Were nkume ọniks abụọ, gbunye aha ụmụ ndị nwoke Izrel nʼelu ya,
10 six of their names, on the one stone, —and the names of the six that remain, on the second stone according to their births:
nʼusoro dịka e si mụọ ha, isii nʼelu otu nkume, isii fọdụrụ na nkume nke ọzọ.
11 with the work of a stone engraver, like seal-ring engravings, shalt thou engrave the two stones, after the names of the sons of Israel, —to be encircled with settings of gold, shalt thou make them.
Gbunye aha ụmụ ndị nwoke Izrel nʼelu nkume abụọ ndị ahụ, dịka onye ǹka si egbunye akara na nkume. Mgbe ahụ, hịọnye nkume ndị ahụ nʼime ihe ọlaedo ahụ a kpara akpa,
12 And thou shalt put the two stones upon the shoulderpieces of the ephod, as stones of memorial for the sons of Israel, —so shall Aaron bear their names before Yahweh upon his two shoulders, for a memorial.
jikọta ha nʼelu akwa ubu nke efọọd ahụ ka ọ bụrụ nkume ncheta mgbe ebighị ebi nye ụmụ Izrel. Erọn ga-ebukwa aha ndị a nʼelu ubu ya abụọ, dịka ihe ncheta nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
13 And thou shalt make ouches of gold;
Ị ga-eji ọlaedo mee ihe ịchọ mma a tụrụ atụ.
14 and two chains of pure gold, like cord, shalt thou make them, of wreathen work, and thou shalt put the wreathen chains on the ouches.
Jirikwa ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha kpụọ eriri a tụhịkọtara dịka ụdọ, jikọta eriri ọlaedo ahụ na ihe ịchọ mma ndị ahụ.
15 And thou shalt make a breastpiece for giving sentence the work of a skilful weaver, like the work of the ephod, shalt thou make it, of gold, blue, and purple and crimson and fine-twined linen, shalt thou make it.
“Ị ga-adụ ihe mgbochi obi nke ikpe, nke bụ ọrụ aka onye ǹka. Mee ya dịka efọọd ahụ: jiri ogho edo edo, nke anụnụ anụnụ, na ngwakọta anụnụ na uhie, na nke uhie uhie nakwa ezi akwa ọcha a kpara nke ọma mee ya.
16 Four-square, shall it be double, —a span the length thereof and a span the breadth thereof.
Akụkụ anọ ya ga-aha nʼotu, iri sentimita abụọ na atọ nʼogologo, iri sentimita abụọ na atọ nʼobosara, nke apịajiri ụzọ abụọ.
17 And thou shalt set therein a setting of stones, four rows of stones, —one row—a sardius, a topaz and an emerald, the first row;
Mgbe ahụ, hịọnye nʼelu ya ahịrị nkume anọ ndị dị oke ọnụahịa. Ụdị ga-adị nʼahịrị nke mbụ bụ, nkume kanelian, krisolaịt na beril,
18 and the second row a carbuncle a sapphire and a diamond;
nʼahịrị nke abụọ, ga-abụ nkume tọkwọisi, safaia na emeralụdụ.
19 and the third row an opal, an agate, and an amethyst;
Nʼahịrị nke atọ ga-abụ nkume jasint, ageeti na ametisiti.
20 and the fourth row, a Tarshish stone, a sardonyx, and a jasper, —enclosed with gold, shall they be when they are set.
Nʼahịrị nke anọ, ga-abụ nkume topaazi, ọniks na jaspa. Hịọnye ha nʼime ihe ọlaedo a kpara akpa.
21 And the stones shall be after the names of the sons of Israel—twelve, after their names, —as the engravings of a seal-ring everyone after his name, shall they be, for the twelve tribes,
Ha niile ga-adị nkume iri na abụọ, nke ọbụla na-anọchi anya aha ụmụ ndị ikom Izrel. Egbunyere aha ebo iri na abụọ ahụ, otu nʼotu, nke ọbụla dịka aha ya si dị.
22 And thou shalt make, upon the breastpiece, chains like cords of wreathen work, —of pure gold.
“Jiri ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha mee eriri a kpara akpa dịka ụdọ, maka ihe mgbochi obi.
23 And thou shalt make, upon the breastpiece, two rings of gold, —and thou shalt place the two rings, upon the two ends of the breastpiece.
Kpụkwaa mgbaaka ọlaedo abụọ, dụnye ha na nkuku abụọ nke ihe mgbochi obi ahụ.
24 And thou shalt hang the two wreathen chains of gold upon the two rings, —upon the ends of the breastpiece;
Dụnye ụdọ ọlaedo abụọ ndị ahụ nʼelu mgbaaka ndị ahụ dị na nkuku ihe mgbochi obi ahụ,
25 and the other two ends of the two wreathen chains, shalt thou fasten upon the two ouches, so shalt thou hang them upon the shoulderpieces of the ephod, in the forefront thereof.
were isi ndị ọzọ nke ụdọ ahụ dụnye nʼihe ahụ a kpara akpa, konye ha nʼelu ubu efọọd ahụ, nʼebe ihu ya.
26 And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and put them on the two ends of the breastpiece upon the border thereof, which is on the side of the ephod inwards.
Ị ga-emekwa mgbaaka ọlaedo, konye ha na nkuku abụọ nke ihe mgbochi obi ahụ, nʼime ọnụ ọnụ ya ebe dị nso efọọd ahụ.
27 And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and place them upon the two shoulderpieces of the ephod beneath, on the front of the face thereof, over against its joining, above the curious band of the ephod:
Ị ga-akpụ mgbaaka ọlaedo abụọ ọzọ, konye ha nʼelu ubu abụọ nke efọọd ahụ, nʼokpuru nʼebe nʼihu ya, na nso nso ebe a dụkọtara ya, nʼelu ihe okike ukwu nke efọọd ahụ.
28 that they may bind the breastpiece by the rings thereof unto the rings of the ephod with a cord of blue, so that it may remain upon the curious band of the ephod, and the breastpiece not be removed from of the ephod.
A ga-eji eriri na-acha anụnụ kekọta mgbaaka ihe mgbochi obi ahụ na mgbaaka efọọd ahụ, jikọtaa ya na ihe okike ukwu ahụ, ime ka ihe mgbochi obi ahụ ghara ịtọghapụ site nʼefọọd ahụ.
29 So shall Aaron bear the names of the sons of Israel in the breastpiece for giving sentence upon his heart when he goeth into the holy place, —for a memorial before Yahweh continually.
“Nʼụzọ dị otu a, mgbe ọbụla Erọn banyere nʼEbe Nsọ, ọ ga-ebu aha ụmụ ndị ikom Izrel niile nʼelu obi ya, nʼelu ihe mgbochi obi nke ikpe ahụ, dịka ihe ncheta nʼihu Onyenwe anyị mgbe niile.
30 Thus shalt thou place, in the breastpiece for giving sentence, the lights and the perfections, so shall they be upon the heart of Aaron when he goeth in before Yahweh, —so shall Aaron bear the sentence of the sons of Israel, upon his heart before Yahweh continually.
Ị ga-etinyekwa nʼime ihe mgbochi obi ahụ ụmụ nkume abụọ e ji ajụta ase nke bụ Urim na Tumim. Ha ga-adị nʼelu obi Erọn mgbe ọbụla ọ gara nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Otu a kwa, Erọn ga-ebukwa ihe e ji ajụta ase banyere ndị Izrel nʼelu obi ya mgbe niile, nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
31 And thou shalt make the robe of the ephod wholly of blue;
“Ọ bụ akwa nke na-acha anụnụ anụnụ, ka ị ga-eji dụọ uwe mwụda efọọd ahụ.
32 and the opening for his head shall be in the midst thereof, —a border, shall there be to the opening thereof round about the work of a weaver, like the opening of a coat of mail, shall there be to it, it must not be rent.
Ọ ga-enwe oghere nʼetiti ya ebe a ga-esi na-etinye isi. A ga-enwe ihe ọkpụkpa gburugburu oghere a dịka nke olu uwe agha, ime ka o sie ike, ghara ịdọka.
33 And thou shalt make upon the skirts thereof pomegranates of blue and purple and crimson, upon the skirts thereof round about—and bells of gold in the midst of them round about:
Nʼọnụ ala ala uwe ahụ gburugburu, ị ga-akpanye ihe ọkpụkpa oyiyi mkpụrụ pomegranet. Ọ bụ ogho nke na-acha anụnụ anụnụ, ngwakọta anụnụ na uhie na uhie uhie ka ị ga-eji. Ị ga-akpanyekwa ataṅụ ọlaedo nʼetiti ha.
34 a bell of gold and a pomegranate, a bell of gold, and a pomegranate, —upon the skirts of the robe, round about.
Nʼọnụ ọnụ ala uwe mwụda ahụ, a ga-adụnye otu ataṅụ ọlaedo, otu oyiyi mkpụrụ pomegranet, gbaa gburugburu.
35 And it shall be upon Aaron, for ministering, —so shall be heard the sound of him—when he goeth into the holy place, before Yahweh, and cometh out, and dieth not.
Mgbe ọbụla Erọn na-eje ozi ya, ọ ghaghị iyi ya. Aga na anụ mgbịrịgba ataṅụ ahụ ka ọ na-akụ, mgbe ọ banyere nʼEbe Nsọ ahụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, na mgbe o si nʼebe ahụ na-apụta, ka ọ ghara ịnwụ.
36 And thou shalt make a burnished plate, of pure gold, —and shalt engrave thereupon, like the engravings of a seal-ring, Holiness to Yahweh.
“Ị ga-ejikwa ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha mee efere ntakịrị, gbunye akara dị otu a nʼelu ya: Ihe nsọ dịrị Onyenwe anyị.
37 And thou shalt put it upon a cord of blue, so shall it be upon the turban, —upon the forefront of the turban, shall it be.
Kenye eriri na-acha anụnụ anụnụ i ji jikọta ya na ihe ike nʼisi ahụ; ọ ga-adị nʼihu akwa ike nʼisi ahụ.
38 So shall it be upon the forehead of Aaron, and Aaron shall bear the iniquity of the hallowed things, which the sons of Israel shall hallow, for all their hallowed gift, —and it shall be upon his forehead continually, that there may be acceptance for them before Yahweh.
Ọ ga-adị nʼegedege ihu Erọn. Ọ ga-ebukwa ikpe ọmụma metụtara njehie gbasara ihe nsọ niile nke ụmụ Izrel doro nsọ, na onyinye ha niile. Ọ ga-adị nʼegedege ihu Erọn mgbe niile, ka ha bụrụ ndị Onyenwe anyị ga-anabata.
39 And thou shalt weave, in checker work the tunic of fine linen, and shalt make a turban of fine linen, —and, a girdle, shalt thou make the work of an embroiderer.
“Jiri ezi akwa ọcha kpaa uwe ime ahụ. Werekwa ezi akwa ọcha mee akwa ike nʼisi ahụ. Ihe ike nʼukwu ahụ ga-abụ ọrụ aka onye ǹka na-akpanye ihe ịchọ mma.
40 And, for the sons of Aaron, shalt thou make tunics, and shalt make for them girdles, —and caps, shalt thou make for them, for glory and for beauty.
Meekwara ụmụ ndị ikom Erọn uwe ime ahụ, ihe ike nʼukwu na akwa ike nʼisi, inye ha ugwu na nsọpụrụ.
41 And thou shalt clothe therewith Aaron thy brother, and his sons, with him, —and shalt anoint them and install them, and hallow them, so shall they minister as priests unto me.
Mgbe i yinyekwasịrị Erọn nwanne gị na ụmụ ya ndị ikom uwe ndị a, tee ha mmanụ, doo ha nsọ. Chee ha nʼihu m ka ha bụrụ ndị na-ejere m ozi dịka ndị nchụaja.
42 And thou shalt make for them breeches of linen, to cover their unseemliness, from the loins even unto the thighs, shall they be;
“Meekwara ha uwe ụkwụ nke eji akwa ọcha mee, maka ikpuchi anụ ahụ ha. Ọ ga-esite nʼukwu ruo nʼikpere.
43 so shall they be upon Aaron and upon his sons, when they go into the tent of meeting, or when they approach unto the altar, to minister in the holy place, lest they bear iniquity, and die, —a statute age-abiding, to him and to his seed after him.
Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom aghaghị iyi ha mgbe niile ha ga-aba nʼime ụlọ nzute, maọbụ mgbe ha na-abịa nso ebe ịchụ aja ije ozi nʼEbe Nsọ. Ka ha ghara imeta ihe ikpe ọmụma, ma nwụọ. “Nke a ga-abụ iwu na ụkpụrụ ebighị ebi, nke ga-adịrị Erọn na ụmụ ụmụ ya.
