Exodus 26
1 “[Tell the people to] make the Sacred Tent using ten long strips of fine linen. They must take blue, purple, and red thread (OR, weave the strips from blue, purple, and red thread), and [a skilled craftsman] must embroider these strips with [designs that represent] the winged creatures [that are above the chest].
“Anplis de sa, ou va fè tabènak la avèk dis rido an twal len fen ki tòde avèk twal ble, mov, ak wouj, ak cheriben yo. Yo gen pou fèt pa yon mèt ouvriye ak gwo kapasite.
2 Each strip is to be (14 yards/twelve meters) long and (2 yards/1.8 meters) wide.
Longè a chak rido va ventwit koude, e lajè chak rido va kat koude. Tout rido yo va gen menm mezi.
3 [Tell them to] sew five strips together to make one set, and sew the other five strips together to make another set.
Senk rido va vin jwenn youn ak lòt, e lòt senk rido yo va jwenn youn ak lòt.
4 For each set, [they must] make loops of blue [cloth] and fasten them along the outer edge of the strip, at the end of each set.
“Ou va fè lasèt yo an ble sou kote rido ki plis deyò a nan premye asanblaj la, e osi ou va fè yo sou kote de tapi ki plis deyò nan dezyèm asanblaj la.
5 [They must] put 50 loops on the edge of the first set, and 50 loops on the edge of the second set.
Ou va fè senkant lasèt nan yon rido, e ou va fè senkant lasèt sou kote rido ki nan dezyèm asanblaj la. Lasèt yo va opoze anfas youn ak lòt.
6 [Tell them to] make 50 gold clasps/fasteners, to fasten both of the sets together. As a result, the inside of the Sacred Tent will be [as though it was] one piece.
Ou va fè senkant kwòk an lò, e ou va jwenn rido yo youn avèk lòt avèk kwòk. Konsa, tabènak la kapab fè yon sèl.
7 Also, [tell them to] make a cover for the Sacred Tent from eleven pieces of cloth made from goats’ hair.
“Alò ou va fè rido yo avèk pwal kabrit tankou yon tant sou tabènak la. Ou va fè onz rido antou.
8 Each piece of cloth is to be (15 yards/13.5 meters) long and (2 yards/1.8 meters) wide.
Longè chak rido va trant koude, e lajè a va kat koude. Onz rido yo va gen menm mezi.
9 [Tell them to] sew five of these pieces of cloth together to make one set, and sew the other six pieces of cloth together to make another set. [They] must fold the sixth piece [of cloth] in half to make it double over the front of the Sacred Tent.
Ou va jwenn senk rido yo poukont yo, lòt sis rido yo poukont yo, e ou va vin double sizyèm rido a pa devan tant lan.
10 [Tell them to] make 100 loops [of blue cloth], and to fasten 50 of them to the outer edge of the one set and fasten 50 to the outer edge of the other set.
“Ou va fè senkant lasèt sou kote rido a ki plis pa deyò nan premye asanblaj la, e senkant lasèt sou kote rido a ki plis pa deyò nan dezyèm asanblaj la.
11 [Tell them to] make fifty bronze clasps/fasteners and put them in the cloth loops to join the two sets together. As a result, the cover for the Sacred Tent will be [as though it was] one piece.
Ou va fè senkant kwòk an bwonz. Ou va mete kwòk yo nan lasèt yo e ou va jwenn tant lan ansanm pou li fè yon sèl.
12 [Let] the extra part of the cover, the part that extends beyond [the linen cloth], hang over the back of the Sacred Tent.
“Mòso anplis ki debòde nan rido a tant lan, mwatye rido ki rete a, va kouche anwo lòt la pa dèyè tabènak la.
13 The extra half yard/meter of each cover, the part that extends beyond [the linen cloth] on each side, must hang over the two sides of the Sacred Tent, to protect the sides.
Yon koude sou yon kote e yon koude sou lòt kote a, sa ki rete nan longè rido a tant lan, li va debòde sou kote tabènak la sou yon bò, ni sou lòt la pou kouvri li.
14 [Tell them to] make two more covers for the Sacred Tent. One is to be made from rams’ skins that have been (tanned/dyed red), and the top cover is to be made from goatskin leather.”
“Ou va fè yon kouvèti pou tant lan avèk po belye ki fonse wouj, e yon kouvèti an po dofen pa anwo.
15 “[Tell them to] make frames from acacia wood, frames that will be set up [from which to hang the Sacred Tent covers].
“Alò ou va fè planch pou tabènak la avèk bwa akasya ki kanpe tou dwat.
16 Each frame is to be (five yards/four meters) long and (27 in./66 cm.) wide.
Dis koude va longè a chak planch e yon koude edmi, lajè a chak planch.
17 [They] must make two projections at the bottom of each frame. These will be to fasten the frames to the bases underneath them. They must make these projections at the bottom of each frame.
Va genyen de bout pou chak planch, ki jwenn youn ak lòt. Konsa ou va fè pou tout planch tabènak yo.
18 Make 20 frames for the south side of the Sacred Tent.
“Ou va fè planch yo pou tabènak la: ven planch pou kote sid la.
19 [Tell them to] make 40 silver bases to go underneath them. Two bases will go under each frame. The projections [at the bottom] of each frame are [to be made] to fit into the bases.
Ou va fè karant baz reseptikal an ajan anba ven planch yo, de baz reseptikal anba yon planch pou de bout li yo, e de baz reseptikal anba yon lòt planch pou de bout li yo.
20 [Similarly], [tell them to] make twenty frames for the north side of the Sacred Tent.
Pou dezyèm kote nan tabènak la, sou fas nò a, ven planch,
21 [They] must make 40 silver bases for them also, with two bases to be put under each frame.
epi karant baz reseptikal pa yo fèt an ajan; de baz reseptikal anba yon lòt planch.
22 For the rear of the Sacred Tent, on the west side, [tell them to] make six frames.
Pou dèyè tabènak la, nan lwès la, ou va fè sis planch.
23 Also, [tell them to] make two extra frames, one for each corner of the rear of the Sacred Tent, [to provide extra support].
“Ou va fè de planch pou kwen a tabènak la pa dèyè.
24 The two corner frames must be joined from the bottom to the top (OR, joined at both the bottom and the top). At the top of each of the two corner frames there must be a gold ring for holding the crossbar.
Yo va double pa anba, e ansanm yo va vin konplete jis nan pwent anlè pou rive nan premye wondèl la. Se konsa li va ye avèk toude: yo va fòme de kwen yo.
25 In that way, [for the rear of the Sacred Tent] there will be eight frames, and there will be 16 bases, two under each frame.
Li va genyen uit planch avèk pwòp baz reseptikal pa yo fèt an ajan, sèz baz reseptikal yo; de baz reseptikal anba yon planch, e de baz reseptikal anba yon lòt planch.
26 [Tell them to] make 15 crossbars from acacia wood.
“Epi ou va fè senk travès yo avèk bwa akasya, senk pou planch yo nan yon kote tabènak la,
27 Five of them will be for the frames on the north side of the Sacred Tent, five will be for the south side, and five for the frames at the rear of the Sacred Tent, the west side.
epi senk travès pou planch yo nan lòt kote tabènak la, e senk travès pou planch yo pou kote a tabènak la pa fas dèyè vè lwès la.
28 Tell them to fasten the crossbars on the north, south, and west sides of the Sacred Tent to the middle of the frames. The two long ones must extend from one end of the Sacred Tent to the other, and the crossbar on the west side must extend from one side of the Sacred Tent to the other.
Travès mitan jis nan mitan planch yo va pase nèt sòti nan yon pwent a lòt pwent lan.
29 [Tell them to] cover the frames with gold, and make gold rings to fasten the crossbars to the frames. The crossbars must [also] be covered with gold.
Ou va kouvri planch yo avèk lò e fè wondèl yo avèk lò tankou soutyen pou travès yo. Epi ou va kouvri poto yo avèk lò.
30 Erect the Sacred Tent in the way that I have shown you [here] on [this] mountain.”
“Ou va monte tabènak la selon plan ki te montre a ou sou mòn nan.
31 “[Tell them to] make a curtain from fine linen. A skilled craftsman must embroider it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread, making [designs to represent] the winged creatures [that are above the chest].
“Ou va fè yon vwal avèk materyo ble, ak mov avèk wouj; twal fen blan byen tòde. Li va fèt avèk yon cheriben, zèv a yon mèt ouvriye ki gen kapasite.
32 [Tell them to] suspend/hang the curtain from four posts made from acacia wood and covered with gold. Set [each] post in a silver base.
Ou va pandye li sou kat pilye akasya yo ki kouvri avèk lò, kwòk pa yo osi fèt avèk lò, sou kat baz reseptikal ki fèt an ajan yo.
33 [They] must suspend/hang the [top of the] curtain by hooks that are fastened to the roof of the Sacred Tent. Behind the curtain, in the [room called the] Very Holy Place, [they] must put the chest containing the [two stone slabs on which I have written my] commandments. That curtain will separate the Holy Place from the Very Holy Place.
Ou va pandye vwal la anba kwòk yo e ou va fè li antre nan lach temwayaj la nan plas sa a, pa anndan vwal la. Konsa, vwal la va sèvi pou nou kòm yon separasyon antre lye ki sen an ak lye ki sen pase tout la.
34 On top of the chest in the Very Holy Place [they] must put the lid which will be the place where [blood will be sprinkled to] forgive people’s sins.
“Ou va mete chèz pwopyatwa a sou lach temwayaj la nan lye ki sen pase tout la.
35 [In the room that is] outside of the Very Holy Place, [they] must put the table [for the sacred] bread on the north side, and put the lampstand on the south side.
Ou va mete tab la deyò vwal la, e chandelye a anfas tab la sou kote tabènak ki vè sid la. Epi ou va mete tab la nan fas nò a.
36 [Tell them to] make a curtain to [cover] the entrance of the Sacred Tent. They must make it from fine linen, and a skilled weaver must embroider it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread.
“Ou va fè yon rido pou pòtay tant lan avèk twal ble, mov, e wouj, ak twal fen blan byen tòde, zèv a yon mèt tiseran.
37 To hold up this curtain, [they] must make five posts from acacia wood. [They] must cover them with gold, and fasten gold clasps/fasteners to them. Also [they] must make a bronze base for each of these posts.”
Ou va fè senk pilye yo avèk akasya pou rido a, e ou va kouvri yo avèk lò. Kwòk pa yo osi va fèt avèk lò. Konsa, ou va fonde senk baz reseptikal an bwonz pou yo.”
