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.
Kamata kati na bana ya Isalaele Aron, ndeko na yo ya mobali, elongo na bana na ye ya mibali: Nadabi mpe Abiyu, Eleazari mpe Itamari; mpo ete basala mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe liboso na Ngai.
2 And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, —for glory and for beauty.
Okotonga mpo na Aron, ndeko na yo ya mobali, bilamba ya bule lokola elembo ya nkembo mpe ya lokumu.
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.
Bongo yo, okoloba na bato nyonso ya mayele oyo, kati na bango, natondisi molimo ya bwanya mpo ete batonga bilamba ya Aron mpo na kobulisa ye na mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe liboso na Ngai.
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.
Tala bilamba oyo bakotonga: elamba ya tolo, efode, kazaka mpe nzambala oyo batia bililingi likolo na yango, kitendi ya kokanga na moto mpe mokaba. Bakotonga bilamba ya bule mpo na Aron, ndeko na yo ya mobali, mpe mpo na bana na ye ya mibali oyo bakosala mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe liboso na Ngai.
5 They themselves, therefore, shall take the gold, and the blue and the purple, —and the crimson, and the fine linen.
Bakosalela wolo, langi ya ble, ya motane ya pete, ya motane makasi mpe lino ya kitoko.
6 And they shall make the ephod, —of gold, blue and purple crimson and fine-twined linen, the work of a skilful weaver.
Bakotonga na wolo efode ya langi ya ble, ya motane ya pete, ya motane makasi mpe na lino ya kitoko oyo bakotonga bililingi na likolo na yango; ekozala mosala ya bato oyo basalaka bililingi na maboko.
7 Two joining shoulderpieces, shall there be to it upon the two extremities thereof that it may be joined together,
Ekozala na bankamba mibale na basuka na yango mibale mpo na kolata efode yango; bankamba ekoleka likolo ya mapeka.
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,
Mokaba ya efode ekosalema ndenge moko na efode: ekozala ya wolo, ya langi ya ble, ya motane ya pete, ya motane makasi mpe na lino ya kitoko oyo bakotonga bililingi na likolo na yango.
9 And thou shalt take two onyx stones, —and engrave upon them the names of the sons of Israel:
Okozwa mabanga mibale ya onikisi mpe okokoma na likolo na yango bakombo ya bana mibali ya Isalaele
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:
kolanda ndenge babotama: bakombo motoba na libanga ya liboso mpe bakombo motoba oyo etikali, na libanga ya mibale.
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.
Okokoma bakombo ya bana mibali ya Isalaele na mabanga nyonso mibale ndenge bato basalaka bililingi na kashe na libanga; mpe okozingela yango na wolo.
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.
Okotia mabanga yango na bankamba ya efode lokola mabanga ya ekaniseli mpo na bana mibali ya Isalaele. Aron akomema likolo ya mapeka na ye lokola ekaniseli liboso ya Yawe bakombo na bango.
13 And thou shalt make ouches of gold;
Okotia bikangelo ya wolo
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.
mpe okosala basheneti mibale ya wolo basangisa na eloko mosusu te; okosala yango lokola suki ya maboko mpe okokangisa basheneti yango pembeni-pembeni ya mabanga.
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.
Okosala elamba ya tolo mpo na koyeba mokano ya Nzambe; ekozala mosala ya bato oyo basalaka bililingi na maboko. Okotonga yango lokola efode: ekozala ya wolo, ya langi ya ble, ya motane ya pete, ya motane makasi mpe na lino ya kitoko oyo bakotonga bililingi na likolo na yango.
16 Four-square, shall it be double, —a span the length thereof and a span the breadth thereof.
Soki bagumbi yango na biteni mibale, molayi mpe mokuse esengeli kozala ndenge moko: basantimetele pene tuku mibale na mitano.
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;
Okotia na likolo na yango milongo minei ya mabanga ya talo. Na molongo ya liboso, okotia libanga ya saridwane, ya topaze mpe ya emerode;
18 and the second row a carbuncle a sapphire and a diamond;
na molongo ya mibale, okotia libanga ya ribisi, ya safiri mpe ya diama;
19 and the third row an opal, an agate, and an amethyst;
na molongo ya misato, okotia libanga ya opale, ya agate mpe ya ametisite;
20 and the fourth row, a Tarshish stone, a sardonyx, and a jasper, —enclosed with gold, shall they be when they are set.
mpe na molongo ya minei, okotia libanga ya krizolite, ya onikisi mpe ya jasipe. Okokanga mabanga yango na bikangelo ya wolo.
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,
Mabanga yango ekozala zomi na mibale kolanda bakombo ya bana mibali ya Isalaele. Na likolo ya libanga moko na moko, bakokoma kombo ya moko kati na mabota zomi na mibale; bakokoma yango ndenge basalaka bililingi na kashe.
22 And thou shalt make, upon the breastpiece, chains like cords of wreathen work, —of pure gold.
Okosala basheneti ya wolo ya peto mpo na elamba ya tolo; okosala yango ndenge bakangaka suki ya maboko.
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.
Okosala bapete mibale ya wolo mpo na elamba ya tolo mpe okokangisa yango na basonge mibale ya elamba yango.
24 And thou shalt hang the two wreathen chains of gold upon the two rings, —upon the ends of the breastpiece;
Okolekisa basheneti mibale ya wolo kati na bapete mibale oyo ezali na basonge ya elamba ya tolo,
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.
mpe okokangisa basonge mibale mosusu ya basheneti yango, na bikangelo nyonso mibale; mpe okokangisa yango na bankamba ya efode; bankamba yango ekoleka na liboso.
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.
Okosala bapete mibale ya wolo oyo okotia na basonge mibale ya se ya elamba ya tolo, na ngambo ya kati oyo etala efode.
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:
Okosala bapete mosusu mibale ya wolo oyo okotia na bankamba mibale ya efode, na se, na liboso mpe na pembeni ya mokaba ya efode.
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.
Okokangisa na singa ya langi ya ble bapete ya wolo ya elamba ya tolo mpe bapete ya wolo ya efode, mpo ete elamba ya tolo ezala likolo ya efode mpe elongwa te na likolo na yango.
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.
Boye tango Aron akokota na Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule, akomema na motema na ye, na elamba ya tolo ya kokata makambo, bakombo ya bana mibali ya Isalaele lokola ekaniseli liboso ya Yawe mpo na libela.
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.
Okotia lisusu Urimi mpe Tumimi kati na elamba ya tolo ya kokata makambo mpe yango ekozala likolo ya motema ya Aron tango akotelema liboso ya Yawe. Boye Aron akomema makambo ya bana ya Isalaele liboso ya Yawe mpo na libela.
31 And thou shalt make the robe of the ephod wholly of blue;
Okosala mobimba ya nzambala oyo ekozala na se ya efode na langi ya ble.
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.
Nzambala esengeli kozala na lidusu na kati-kati mpo na kokotisa moto; bakotonga pembeni-pembeni ya lidusu yango poso ya makasi mpo ete epasuka te.
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:
Na se mpe zingazinga ya nzambala, okotia bambuma ya grenade bakangisa na singa ya langi ya ble, ya motane ya pete mpe ya motane makasi; mpe okotia bangonga ya mike-mike kati na bambuma ya grenade.
34 a bell of gold and a pomegranate, a bell of gold, and a pomegranate, —upon the skirts of the robe, round about.
Ekolandana boye: ngonga moko ya moke ya wolo, mbuma moko ya grenade, mpe bongo na bongo, zingazinga ya basonge nyonso ya nzambala.
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.
Aron asengeli kolata yango tango azali kosala mosala. Makelele ya bangonga ya mike-mike ekoyokana tango akotelema liboso ya Yawe na Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule mpe tango akobima; wana ekolakisa ete akufi te.
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.
Okosala na wolo ya peto medaye mpe okokoma na likolo na yango ndenge basalaka bililingi na kashe: abulisama mpo na Yawe.
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.
Okokangisa yango na singa ya ble, mpe ekozala na likolo ya kitendi ya kokanga na moto, na mbunzu.
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.
Linzanza yango ekozala na mbunzu ya Aron mpo ete akoka komema bambeba oyo bana ya Isalaele bakosala na tina na biloko ya bule oyo bakobonza mpe bakobulisa. Linzanza yango ekozala tango nyonso na mbunzu ya Aron mpo ete Ngai Yawe, nandima makabo yango.
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.
Okotongela Aron nzambala ya lino mpe kitendi ya lino mpo na moto; okosalela ye mpe mokaba oyo bato oyo batongaka bililingi na bilamba bakoyeba kotia bililingi.
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.
Okosala lisusu mpo na bana ya Aron banzambala, mikaba mpe bikoti, lokola elembo ya lokumu mpe ya nkembo.
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.
Sima na kolatisa Aron, ndeko na yo ya mobali, elongo na bana na ye ya mibali, okopakola bango mafuta mpe okobulisa bango. Okokomisa bango Banganga-Nzambe mpo ete basalela Ngai.
42 And thou shalt make for them breeches of linen, to cover their unseemliness, from the loins even unto the thighs, shall they be;
Okosalela bango bakaputula ya lino mpo na kozipa bolumbu na bango: bakaputula yango ekobanda na loketo kino na mipende.
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.
Aron mpe bana na ye ya mibali bakolata yango tango nyonso bakobanda kokota na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani to kopusana pembeni ya etumbelo mpo na kosala mosala kati na Esika ya bule, mpo ete bazala na ngambo te mpe bakufa te. Ezali mobeko ya libela mpo na Aron mpe bakitani na ye.
