< Exodus 30 >

1 And thou shalt make an altar, for burning incense, of acacia wood, shalt thou make it:
“Thondeka kĩgongona kĩa mbaũ cia mũgaa gĩa gũcinagĩra ũbumba.
2 a cubit, the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof four square, shall it be, —and two cubits, the height thereof, of the same, [shall be] the horns thereof,
Nĩgĩkorwo kĩiganaine mĩena yothe mũkono ũmwe kũraiha na mũkono ũmwe kwarama na mĩkono ĩĩrĩ kũraiha na igũrũ, hĩa ciakĩo ituĩke kĩndũ o ro kĩmwe na kĩgongona.
3 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold the top thereof, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns thereof, -and thou shalt make to it a border of gold round about.
Kĩgemie igũrũ, o na mĩena yothe, o na hĩa ciakĩo, na thahabu therie, na ũgĩtirihe na mũcibi wa thahabu ũgĩthiũrũrũkĩrie.
4 And, two rings of gold, shalt thou make to it, under the border thereof upon the two corners thereof, shalt thou make them on the two sides thereof, —so shall they become receptacles for the staves, to lift it therewith.
Thondekera kĩgongona kĩu mĩrĩnga ĩĩrĩ, ũmĩoherere thĩ wa mũcibi ũcio, ĩĩrĩ mwena ũmwe, na ĩĩrĩ mwena ũrĩa ũngĩ ĩnyiitagĩrĩre mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩraaya ĩtũmagĩrwo gũgĩkuua.
5 And thou shalt make the staves of acacia wood, —and overlay them with gold.
Thondeka mĩtĩ mĩraaya ya mbaũ cia mũgaa, na ũmĩgemie na thahabu.
6 And thou shalt place it before the veil, which is by the ark of the testimony, —before the propitiatory which is upon the testimony, where I will meet thee.
Iga kĩgongona kĩu mbere ya gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio kĩrĩa kĩrĩ mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira, mbere ya gĩtĩ gĩa tha kĩrĩa kĩrĩ igũrũ rĩa ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira, harĩa ngaacemania nawe.
7 And Aaron shall burn thereon fragrant incense, —morning by morning, when he trimmeth the lamps, shall he burn it;
“Harũni no nginya acinĩre ũbumba mũnungi wega hau igũrũ rĩa kĩgongona o rũciinĩ rĩrĩa egũthondeka matawa.
8 and, when Aaron lighteth the lamps, between the evenings, shall he burn it, —a continual incense before Yahweh, to your generations.
No nginya acine ũbumba rĩngĩ agĩakia matawa hwaĩ-inĩ kũrĩ mairia, nĩgeetha ũbumba ũikarage ũgĩcinagwo mahinda mothe mbere ya Jehova, njiarwa na njiarwa iria igooka.
9 Ye shall not cause to ascend thereupon strange incense, nor an ascending-sacrifice, nor a meal-offering, —and a drink offering, shall ye not pour out thereupon.
Ndũkanacinĩre ũbumba wa mũthemba ũngĩ kĩgongona-inĩ gĩkĩ kana ũrutĩre ho iruta rĩa njino, kana rĩa mũtu, na ndũkanaitĩrĩrie iruta rĩa kũnyuuo igũrũ rĩakĩo.
10 But Aaron shall put a propitiatory-covering upon the horns thereof, once in the year: of the blood of the sin-bearer for propitiatory-coverings, once in the year, shall he put a propitiatory-covering thereupon to your generations, most holy, it is to Yahweh.
Harũni nĩarutage horohio hĩa-inĩ cia kĩgongona kĩu o mwaka riita rĩmwe. Horohio ĩno ya o mwaka no nginya ĩrutagwo na thakame ya iruta rĩa kũhoroheria mehia, nginya njiarwa iria igooka. Horohio ĩyo nĩ igongona itheru mũno harĩ Jehova.”
11 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying—
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
12 When thou takest the sum of the sons of Israel, by their numberings, then shall they give every man a propitiatory-covering for his soul to Yahweh, when they are numbered, —that there may be among them no plague when they are numbered.
“Rĩrĩa ũgũtara andũ a Isiraeli-rĩ, o mũndũ no nginya arutagĩre Jehova kĩndũ gĩa gũkũũra muoyo wake rĩrĩa egũtarwo. Na gũtirĩ mũthiro ũkaamakora ũkĩmatara.
13 This, shall they give—every one that passeth over to them that have been numbered—a half-shekel by the shekel of the sanctuary, —the shekel is twenty gerahs—the half-shekel, shall be a heave-offering to Yahweh.
Mũndũ o wothe ũrĩkĩraga agathiĩ mwena wa andũ arĩa marĩkĩtie gũtarwo, nĩarĩrutaga nuthu ya cekeri kũringana na ũrĩa cekeri ya harĩa haamũre ĩtariĩ ĩrĩa ĩrĩ na ũritũ wa geera mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ. Nuthu ĩyo ya cekeri nĩ iruta kũrĩ Jehova.
14 All who pass over to the numbered, from twenty years old and upwards, shall give the heave-offering of Yahweh.
Arĩa othe marĩkĩraga magathiĩ mwena wa arĩa marĩkĩtie gũtarwo, marĩ na ũkũrũ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na makĩria, no nginya maheage Jehova iruta rĩu.
15 The rich, shall not give more, and the poor, shall not give less, than the half-shekel, —when they give the heave-offering of Yahweh, to put a propitiatory-covering over your souls.
Arĩa atongu matirĩheanaga makĩria ya nuthu ya cekeri, nao arĩa athĩĩni matirĩheanaga kĩndũ kĩnini gũkĩra nuthu ya cekeri hĩndĩ ya kũrutĩra Jehova horohio ya mĩoyo yao.
16 So then thou shalt take the silver for the propitiatory-coverings from the sons of Israel, and shalt expend it upon the service of the tent of meeting, —thus shall it be for the sons of Israel as a memorial before Yahweh, to put a propitiatory-covering over your souls.
Amũkĩra mbeeca cia horohio kuuma kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli nawe ũcihũthĩre ũtungata-inĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo. Ũguo ũgaatuĩka kĩririkano kĩa andũ a Isiraeli mbere ya Jehova makĩrutĩra mĩoyo yao horohio.”
17 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying—
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
18 And thou shalt make a laver of bronze, and its stand of bronze for bathing, —and thou shalt place it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and shalt put therein water.
“Thondeka kĩraĩ gĩa gwĩthambagĩra gĩa gĩcango, kĩrĩ na kĩgũrũ gĩakĩo gĩa gĩcango. Ũkĩige gatagatĩ ka Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo na kĩgongona, na ũgĩĩkĩre maaĩ.
19 So shall Aaron and his sons bathe thereat, —their hands, and their feet.
Harũni na ariũ ake marĩĩthambaga moko mao na nyarĩrĩ na maaĩ macio.
20 When they enter the tent of meeting, they shall bathe with water so shall they not die, —or when they approach unto the altar to minister, to burn as incense an altar-flame to Yahweh:
Rĩrĩa rĩothe marĩtoonyaga Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, marĩĩthambaga na maaĩ nĩgeetha matigakue. O na ningĩ rĩrĩa mathengerera kĩgongona nĩguo marutĩre Jehova iruta rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki,
21 so then they shall bathe their hands and their feet and shall not die, —and it shall be to them an age-abiding statute, to him and to his seed to their generations.
marĩĩthambaga moko na nyarĩrĩ nĩgeetha matigakue. Ũndũ ũcio ũgaatuĩka watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo tene na tene nĩ Harũni na njiaro ciake, na njiarwa ciao ciothe iria igooka.”
22 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying—
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
23 Thou, therefore, take to thee—principal spices, —self-flowing myrrh, five hundred, and fragrant cinnamon, half as much, two hundred and fifty, and, fragrant cane, two hundred and fifty;
“Oya mahuti maya manungi wega: cekeri 500 cia manemane ĩrĩa ndwekie, nuthu yamo (nacio icio nĩ cekeri 250) cia ndarathini nungi wega, na cekeri 250 cia karamathi nungi wega,
24 and, cassia, five hundred, by the shekel of the sanctuary, —and, oil olive, a hin.
cekeri 500 cia mwĩnũ, ciothe kũringana na cekeri ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre, na hini ya maguta ma mĩtamaiyũ.
25 And thou shalt make it an oil for holy anointing, a compounded perfume the work of a perfumer, —an oil for holy anointing, shall it be.
Indo ici ũcithondeke ituĩke maguta matheru ma gũitanĩrĩrio matukanĩtio makanunga wega marutĩirwo wĩra nĩ mũthondeki mũũgĩ wa maguta. Macio matuĩke maguta matheru ma gũitanagĩrĩrio.
26 And thou shalt anoint therewith the tent of meeting, —and the ark of the testimony;
Ningĩ ũhũthĩre maguta macio gũitĩrĩria Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, na ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira,
27 and the table and all its utensils, and the lampstand, and its utensils, —and the incense altar,
na metha na indo ciayo ciothe, na mũtĩ wa kũigĩrĩrwo matawa na indo ciaguo, na kĩgongona gĩa gũcinĩra ũbumba, na
28 and the altar for the ascending-sacrifice, and all its utensils, -and the laver, and its stand.
kĩgongona kĩa iruta rĩa njino na indo ciakĩo ciothe, na kĩraĩ na kĩgũrũ gĩakĩo.
29 So shalt thou hallow them, and they shall be most holy, —whosoever toucheth them, shall be holy.
Nĩũgaciamũra nĩgeetha ituĩke theru mũno makĩria, nakĩo kĩrĩa gĩothe gĩgacihutia nĩgĩgatuĩka gĩtheru.
30 Aaron also, and his sons, shalt thou anoint, —so shalt thou hallow them to minister as priests unto me.
“Itĩrĩria Harũni na ariũ ake maguta ũmaamũre nĩgeetha mandungatagĩre marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai.
31 And unto the sons of Israel, shalt thou speak, saying, An oil for holy anointing, shall this be to me, to your generations.
Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ, ‘Maya nĩmo maguta makwa marĩa matheru ma gũitanagĩrĩrio ma njiarwa iria igooka.
32 Upon the flesh of a common man, shall it not be poured, and according to the proportions thereof, shall ye not make any like it, —holy, it is, holy, shall it be to you.
Ndũkanamaitĩrĩrie mĩĩrĩ ya arũme, na ndũkanathondeke maguta mangĩ na mũthondekere ũcio. Nĩ matheru na nĩ wega ũmatuage atĩ nĩ matheru.
33 Whosoever compoundeth any like it, and whosoever bestoweth thereof upon a stranger, shall be cut off from among his people.
Mũndũ wothe ũrĩthondekaga maguta manungi wega mahaana ta maya, na mũndũ o wothe ũngĩmaitĩrĩria mũndũ ũtarĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩakaingatwo kuuma kũrĩ andũ ao.’”
34 Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Take to thee aromatic spices stacte and onycha, and galbanum, —aromatic spices, and pure frankincense, —weight for weight, shall it be.
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Oya mahuti manungi wega marĩa metagwo thitakiti, na onuka na garibane, hamwe na ũbani ũrĩa mwega mũno, mothe mathimĩtwo maiganaine,
35 And thou shalt make of it an incense, a perfume the work of a perfumer, —salted, pure, holy.
na ũthondekithie magĩe na mũtararĩko mwega wa ũbumba; wĩra ũcio ũrutwo nĩ mũthondeki mũũgĩ wa maguta. Makorwo mekĩrĩtwo cumbĩ, na marĩ matheru na makaamũrwo.
36 And thou shalt beat some of it to powder, and place thereof before the testimony, in the tent of meeting, where I am to meet with thee, —most holy, shall it be to you.
Thĩithia mahuti mamwe matuĩke mũtu, naguo ũũige mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, harĩa ndĩĩcemanagia nawe. Ũgaakorwo ũrĩ mũtheru mũno harĩwe.
37 And the incense which thou shalt make, according to the proportions thereof, ye shall not make for yourselves, —holy, shall it be to thee, to Yahweh.
Mũtikanethondekere ũbumba wa mũthemba ũyũ nĩ ũndũ wa inyuĩ ene; ũtuagei mũtheru nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova.
38 Whosoever shall make like it, to smell of it shall be cut off from among his people.
Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũrĩa ũgathondeka ũngĩ taguo nĩguo ekenagie na mũtararĩko waguo nĩakaingatwo kuuma kũrĩ andũ ao.”
