Anri thing hoi khoungroe ayung dong panga, adangka dong panga, arasang dong thum, a takin pali touh lah na sak han.
2 [They] must make [a projection that looks like] a horn on each of the top corners. The projections must be carved from the same block of wood as the altar. [Tell them to] cover the whole altar with gold.

8 The altar will be like a box, made from boards [of acacia wood]. [They must] make it according to these instructions that I am giving you [here] on [this] mountain.”

11 [They must] make the same kind of curtains for the north side of the courtyard.

20 “Command the Israeli people that they must bring to you the best kind of olive oil to [burn in] the lamps. [They must bring this oil to you continually], in order that the lamps can burn continually.
Hmaiim pou paang thai nahanelah, Olive paw phawm laihoi raci e olive satui kathoung hah, Isarelnaw ni a thokhai awh nahanlah kâ na poe han.
21 They must put the lampstand outside of the curtain which is in front of [the sacred chest which contains the stone slabs on which I have written] my commandments. Aaron must take care of the lamps. [After he dies], his descendants must do this work. The lamps are to burn every night, from evening until morning. The Israeli people must obey this regulation throughout all future generations.”
