Exodus 28
1 “Summon your [older] brother Aaron and his sons—Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. ([Set them apart/They are the ones whom I have chosen]) from [the rest of] the Israeli people, in order that they can serve me [by being] priests.
Gode da eno amane sia: i, “Dia ola Elane amola egefelali amo Na: ida: be, Abaihu, Elia: isa amola Idama amo misa: ne sia: ma. Ilia da Nama gobele salasu hawa: hamosu hamoma: ne, Isala: ili dunu fi eno ilima afafama.
2 [Tell the people to] make beautiful clothes for Aaron, clothes that are [suitable for one who] has this dignified and sacred [work].
Abula noga: iwane dia ola Elane salima: ne hahamoma. E da amo ga: sea, mimogo amola isisima: goi ba: mu.
3 Talk to all the skilled workmen, those to whom I have given special ability. [Tell them] to make clothes for Aaron, for him to wear when he is (set apart/dedicated) [to become] a priest to serve me.
Na da abula hahamosu dunu mogili ilima noga: le hawa: hamoma: ne, gasa i dagoi. Amo misa: ne sia: ne, ilia da Elane ea abula noga: i amo hamomu. Bai Na da e Na gobele salasu hawa: hamomusa: ilegemu gala.
4 These are the clothes that they are to make: A sacred pouch for Aaron to wear over his chest, a sacred apron, a robe, an embroidered tunic/gown, a (turban/cloth to wrap around his head), and a sash/waistband. These are the clothes that your [older] brother Aaron and his sons must wear as they serve me [by doing the work that] priests do.
Ilima amane adoma, ‘Dilia bidegi dedebosu, ‘ifode’, abuladafa, da: i salasu amoga da dedene amuni, abula habuga amola abula bulu amo hahamoma. Amo liligi Elane amola egefelali da Nama gobele salasu hawa: hamoma: ne salimusa: , noga: le hamoma.
5 The skilled workmen must use fine linen and blue, purple, and red yarn/thread to make these clothes.”
Amo bagade dawa: su abula hahamosu dunu da sibi hinabo mola: ya: i, oga: iyei amola yoi amola gouli gobiaha: i amola abula noga: idafa amoga gobele salasu dunu ilia abula hahamomu.
6 “The skilled workmen must make the sacred apron from fine linen, and skillfully embroider it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread.
Ilia da ‘ifode’ amo sibi hinabo mola: ya: i, oga: iyei amola yoi, amola abula noga: i amoga hamomu. Noga: i ba: ma: ne ilia da abula amo da: iya dedene amunimu.
7 It must have two shoulder straps, to join the front part to the back part.
Bulu aduna amo da ‘ifode’ amo gobele salasu dunu ea gida adunaga la: gilisimusa: hamoma.
8 A carefully-woven sash, which must be made from the same materials as the sacred apron, must be [sewn] onto the sacred apron.
Abula bulu da ‘ifode’ amoma madelagi ba: mu.
9 [A skilled workman] must take two [expensive] onyx stones and engrave on them the names of the twelve sons of Jacob.
‘Ganilia: ne’ igi aduna noga: iwane lale, amoga Ya: igobe egefelali fagoyale gala ilia dio dedema.
10 He must engrave the names in the order in which Jacob’s sons were born. He must engrave six names on one stone, and the other six names on the other stone.
Magobo mano hidadea dedema. Amalu, magobo bagia amalu amo baligia asili ufi mano dedema.
11 A gem-cutter should engrave these names on the stones. Then he should enclose the stones in (settings/tiny gold frames).
Igi dedesu dunu noga: idafa da amo hawa: hamoma: ne sia: ma. Amo igi gouli bai hahamone, amo ganodini salima.
12 Then he should fasten the stones onto the shoulder straps [of the sacred apron], to represent the twelve Israeli tribes. In that way, Aaron will carry the names of the tribes on his shoulders in order that [I], Yahweh, will never forget [my people] (OR, in order that [he will always] remember that [those tribes belong to] Yahweh).
Amasea, amo igi da ‘ifode’ bulu amo gida da: iya lala: gilisima. Amasea, Elane da Isala: ili fi huluane ilia dio amo gisa masunu. Amola, Na, Hina Gode, Na da mae yolesili, Na fi dunu dawa: lalumu.
13 The settings for the stones must be made from gold.
Gouli bai aduna hamone,
14 [Tell them to] make two tiny chains that are braided like cords, and fasten the chains to the settings.”
gouli sia: ine aduna, gobiaha: i defele bione hamone, amo baiga lala: gilisima.
15 “[Tell the skilled workman to] make a sacred pouch for Aaron to wear over his chest. [He will use the things he puts into the pouch] to determine [my answers to the questions he asks]. It must be made of the same materials as the sacred apron, and embroidered in the same way.
Gobele salasu Ouligisu dunu amo salima: ne bidegi gaga: su amoga e da Gode Ea hanai dawa: mu, amo ‘ifode’ ea sibi hinabo abula amola amunisu amo defele hamoma.
16 It is to be square, and the material must be folded double, so that it is (9 in./22 cm.) on each side.
Amo ea defei da la: di afae da 22 sedimida amola la: di eno da defele 22 sedimida. Amo abula dogoa selefale abula aduna agoane ba: mu.
17 [The skilled workman must] fasten four rows of valuable stones onto the pouch. In the first row he must put a [red] ruby, a [yellow] topaz, and a [red] garnet.
Amoga igi noga: iwane dadalesu biyaduyale gala bulufalegele la: gilisima. Dadalesu age ganodini, igi udiana amo ‘lubi’, ‘douba: se’ amola ‘ganede’ la: gilisima.
18 In the second row he must put a [green] emerald, a [blue] sapphire, and a [clear/white] diamond.
Dadalesu ageyadu ganodini igi udiana eno amo ‘emelalede’, ‘sa: faia’ amola ‘daimode’ la: gilisima.
19 In the third row he must put a [red] jacinth, a [white] agate, and a [purple] amethyst.
Dadalesu osoda ganodini igi udiana amo ‘degaoise’, ‘a: gade’ amola ‘a: midiside’ la: gilisima.
20 In the fourth row he must put a [yellow] beryl, a [red] carnelian, and a [green] jasper.
Dadalesu biyadu amo ganodini igi udiana eno amo ‘belile’, ‘ganilia: ne’ amola ‘ya: sabe’ la: gilisima. Amo noga: i igi huluane afae afae gouli bai amoga madelagima.
21 A gem-cutter should engrave on each of these twelve stones the name of one of the sons of Jacob. These names will represent the twelve Israeli tribes.
Amo igi fagoyale gala huluane afae afae amoga Ya: igobe egefelali ilia dio huluane dedema. Amo dio da Isala: ili fi fagoyale gala ilia dio.
22 The two [chains] that are made from pure gold and braided like cords are for [attaching] the sacred pouch [to the sacred apron].
Bidegi gaga: su amoga gouli sia: ine gobiaha: i defele bione lala: gilisima.
23 [The workman must] make two gold rings, and attach them to the upper corners of the sacred pouch.
Gouli gasisalasu aduna gouliga hamoi amo bidegi gaga: su ea gado hegomai aduna amoga lala: gilisima.
24 [He must make] two gold cords, and fasten one end of each cord to one of the rings.
Gouli sia: ine aduna amo gasisalasuga lala: gilisima.
25 He must fasten the other end of each cord to the two settings [that enclose the stones]. In that way, the sacred pouch will be attached to the shoulder straps of the sacred apron.
Gouli sia: ine aduna eno bidi amo gouli bai aduna amoga lala: gilisima. Amasea, ilia da ‘ifode’ ea gida bulu amoga lala: gilisi ba: mu.
26 Then [he must] make two more gold rings, and attach them to the lower corners of the sacred pouch, on the inside edges, next to the sacred apron.
Amasea, gouli gasisalasu aduna eno hamone, bidegi gaga: su ea gudu hegomai aduna ganodini ‘ifode’ dafulili amoga lala: gilisima.
27 [He must] make two more gold rings, and attach them to the lower part of the front of the shoulder straps, near to where [the shoulder straps] are joined [to the sacred apron], just above the carefully-woven sash/waistband.
Gouli gasisalasu aduna eno hamone, amo da ‘ifode’ ea gida bulu ea gududi bulu eno amoga gadodili lala: gilisima.
28 The skilled workman must tie the rings on the sacred pouch to the rings on the sacred apron with a blue cord, so that the sacred pouch is above the sash/waistband and does not come loose from the sacred apron.
Bidegi gaga: su amo ea gasisalasu amo ‘ifode’ ea gasisalasu amoga mola: ya: i gobiaha: i amoga lala: gilisima. Bai agoane hamosea, Bidegi Gaga: su da bulu gadodili dialumu. Amola e da hoholei hame ba: mu.
29 In that way, Aaron will have the names of the twelve Israeli tribes in the sacred pouch close to his chest when he enters the Holy Place. This will remind him that I, Yahweh, [will never forget my people] (OR, [that he represents my people when he talks to me, Yahweh]).
Elane da Hadigi Malei Sesei amo ganodini golili dasea, e da Bidegi Gaga: su amoga Isala: ili fi ilia dio dedei ea dogo gadenene salawane golili sa: imu. Amaiba: le, Na, Hina Gode da Na fi eso huluane mae yolesili dawa: lalumu.
30 Put into the sacred pouch the two things that the priest will use to determine my answers to the questions he asks. In that way, they will be close to his chest when he enters [the Holy Place to talk] to me. He will use them to find out what is my will for the Israeli people.”
Igi aduna amo Ulimi amola Damini amo Bidegi Gaga: su ganodini salima. Amasea, Elane da Hadigi Malei Sesei (amo ganodini Hina Gode da esalebe) amo ganodini masea e da ea dogo dafulili Ulimi amola Damini gaguli misunu. Amasea, e da Na da Na fi dunu ilia hou hamoma: ne ilegei, amo dawa: digimu.
31 “[Tell the workmen to] use only blue [cloth] to make the robe that is to be worn underneath the priest’s sacred apron.
Hina Gode da eno amane sia: i, “Gobele salasu dunu ilia abula amo ‘ifode’ dedebosu da sibi hinabo mola: ya: i amoga fawane hamoma.
32 It is to have an opening through which [the priest] can put his head. They must sew a border around this opening, to keep the material from tearing.
Gobele salasu dunu ilia dialuma salimusa: gelabo da abula ganodini ba: mu. Amo gelabo da mae gadelama: ne ea fe amo gasa ima: ne noga: le amunima.
33 At the lower edge on the robe, they must fasten [decorations that look like] pomegranate fruit. They must be [woven from] blue, purple, and red yarn/thread.
Abula ea fe gudu diala amoga ‘bomigala: nidi’ ifa fage agoane liligi sibi hinabo mola: ya: i, oga: iyei amola yoi amoga hamoi lala: gilisima. Sibi hinabo hamoi ‘bomigala: nidi’ afadafa amalalu, gouli belo afadafa amalalu, ‘bomigala: nidi’ eno agoane fega lala: gilisima.
34 Between each of these decorations, they must fasten a tiny gold bell.
35 When Aaron enters the Holy Place [in the Sacred Tent] to do his work as a priest and when he leaves the Sacred Tent, the bells will ring [as he walks]. As a result, he will not die [because of disobeying my instructions].
Elane da gobele salasu hawa: hamosea, e da amo abula salawane hamomu. E da Na ba: ma: ne Hadigidafa Momei Sesei ganodini golili dasea o gadili ahoasea, belo sia: da nabimuba: le, e da fanelegei dagoi hame ba: mu.
36 “[Tell them to] make a tiny ornament of pure gold, and tell a (skilled workman/gem-cutter) to engrave on it the words, ‘Dedicated to Yahweh.’
Noga: i ba: su liligi gouliga hamoma. Amo da: iya agoane dedema, “Hina Godema hadigi hamoma: ne mogili gagai dagoi.”
37 They should fasten this ornament to the front of the turban by a blue cord.
Amo nina: hamoi liligi Elane ea abula habuga ba: le gaidiga lala: gilisima.
38 Aaron must always wear this on his forehead. In that way, Aaron himself will show [that he accepts] the guilt if the Israeli people offer [their sacrifices] to me in a way that is not correct, and I, Yahweh, will accept their sacrifices.
Isala: ili dunu da Na, Hina Gode, hahawane udigili iasu Nama imunu, be eso enoga ilia da giadofale Nama imunu. Be Na da ilia hahawane udigili iasu hahawane lama: ne, Elane da amo nina: hamoi liligi ea odagi da: iya ligisi gaguli ahoanumu.
39 “[Tell them to] weave the long-sleeved tunic/gown from fine linen. Also, they must make from fine linen a turban and a sash/waistband, and embroider [designs on it].
Elane ea da: i salasu amo abula noga: iwane amoga hamoma. Ea habuga amola abula bulu amo abula noga: iwane amoga hamoma. Abula bulu amo da: iya sibi hinabo amoga amunima.
40 “[Tell them to] make beautiful long-sleeved tunics/gowns, sashes, and caps for Aaron’s sons. Make ones that will be suitable for those who have this dignified work.
Da: i salasu, abula bulu amola habuga, Elane egefelali salima: ne hamoma. Ilia da mimogo amola dunu eno amoga fonobahadi afafane momogili gagai, amo ba: ma: ne hamoma.
41 Put these clothes on your [older] brother Aaron and on his sons. Then (set them apart/dedicate them) for this work by anointing them [with olive oil], in order that they may serve me [by being] priests.
Amo abula liligi huluane, di amo dia ola Elane amola egefelali ilima gasisa: lima. Amasea, ilia da Na gobele salasu dunu hawa: hamomusa: momogili gagama: ne, ilia dialuma da: iya olife susuligi sogadigima.
42 Also [tell them to] make linen undershorts for them. The undershorts should extend from their waists to their thighs, in order that no one can see their private parts.
Ilia selefa dunumuni, abula amoga hamoma. Amo selefa da ilia hagomo asili ilia masele amoga doaga: mu. Ilia sema mae ba: ma: ne agoane hamoma.
43 Aaron and his sons must always wear those undershorts when they enter the Sacred Tent or when they come near to the altar to offer sacrifices in the Holy Place. If they do not obey this command, I will cause them to die. Aaron and all his male descendants must obey this rule forever.”
Elane amola egefelali da eso huluane Na Abula Diasu ganodini golili dasea o oloda amoga gobele salasu hamoma: ne amo gadenene masea, ilia da amo selefa salawane misunu. Bai ilia da ilia sema olelesea, fanelegei dagoi ba: sa: besa: le, agoane hamomu da defea. Amo da sema amo Elane amola egaga fi da mae yolesili hamonanoma: mu.
