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.
“Luong Harun owadu kaachiel gi yawuote ma gin Nadab, Abihu, Eliazar kod Ithamar kowuok kuom jo-Israel mondo gitina kaka jodolo.
2 [Tell the people to] make beautiful clothes for Aaron, clothes that are [suitable for one who] has this dignified and sacred [work].
Twangʼne Harun owadu lewni mopwodhi mag dolo mondo omi omiye duongʼ gi luor.
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.
Nyis jotich molony duto ma asemiyo rieko e yore machalo kamago ni mondo gilos ne Harun lewnigo mag pwodhruok mondo otinago kaka jadolo.
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.
Lewni manyaka gitwangʼ e magi: law akor, law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod, kandho, law akor mogor, kilemba mar wich kod okanda. Nyaka gilos lewni mowal mag dologi ne owadu Harun kod yawuote mondo gitina kaka jodolo.
5 The skilled workmen must use fine linen and blue, purple, and red yarn/thread to make these clothes.”
Lewnigo nyaka gilosi gi dhahabu, gi law man-gi range marambulu gi maralik kod marakwaro.
6 “The skilled workmen must make the sacred apron from fine linen, and skillfully embroider it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread.
“Los law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod gi dhahabu, gi law man-gi range marambulu gi maralik kod marakwaro momin gi law mayom, ma en tich jatwengʼo molony.
7 It must have two shoulder straps, to join the front part to the back part.
Nyaka obed gi okanda ariyo mag gok mitweyego e gok chien gi nyime
8 A carefully-woven sash, which must be made from the same materials as the sacred apron, must be [sewn] onto the sacred apron.
Okandane mochwe maber nyaka bed machal kode kendo obed gimoro achiel gi law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod bende nyaka lose gi dhahabu kod law momin mayom man-gi range marambulu gi maralik kod marakwaro.
9 [A skilled workman] must take two [expensive] onyx stones and engrave on them the names of the twelve sons of Jacob.
“Kaw kite ariyo mag oniks kendo ikedgi kaka ikedo kido ka indiko nying yawuot Israel,
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.
kaluwore gi nywolgi ka nying yawuowi auchiel ondikie kidi achiel, to auchiel modongʼ ondikie kidi machielo.
11 A gem-cutter should engrave these names on the stones. Then he should enclose the stones in (settings/tiny gold frames).
Iked nying yawuot Israel mana kaka jaked kidi molony kedo kido. Bangʼ mano ru kitego e tond dhahabu,
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).
kendo twegi e lep akor mag law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod mondo gibed kaka kite rapar ne nyithind Israel. Harun enotingʼ kitego e goke kaka rapar e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
13 The settings for the stones must be made from gold.
Ruwgi kaka thiwni mag dhahabu,
14 [Tell them to] make two tiny chains that are braided like cords, and fasten the chains to the settings.”
kendo e nyoroche ariyo mokedi gi dhahabu maler kaka tol mondo itwe nyorochego e thiwni.
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.
“Jatwengʼo molony ema nyaka los law akor mar ngʼado bura, kolose gi dhahabu gi usi marambulu gi maralik kod marakwaro kod law mayom mar katana kendo momin maber ka law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod.
16 It is to be square, and the material must be folded double, so that it is (9 in./22 cm.) on each side.
Onego oromre duto ka borne gi lachne romo bat achiel kendo nobane nyadiriyo.
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.
Bangʼ mano, chan laini angʼwen mag kite ma nengogi tek kuom lawno. Laini mokwongo chanie kite kaka rubi, topaz gi beril;
18 In the second row he must put a [green] emerald, a [blue] sapphire, and a [clear/white] diamond.
to e laini mar ariyo chanie kite kaka tarkus gi safir kod emerald;
19 In the third row he must put a [red] jacinth, a [white] agate, and a [purple] amethyst.
e laini mar adek chanie kite kaka jasinth gi agat kod amethist;
20 In the fourth row he must put a [yellow] beryl, a [red] carnelian, and a [green] jasper.
e laini mar angʼwen chanie kite kaka krisolit gi oniks kod jaspa. Kidigo duto mondo ochan kaka thiwni mag dhahabu.
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.
Kitego duto nondikie nying yawuot Israel apar gariyo, ka okedgi kaka kido ka moro ka moro ochungʼ ne nying dhout Israel apar gariyogo.
22 The two [chains] that are made from pure gold and braided like cords are for [attaching] the sacred pouch [to the sacred apron].
“Losne law akor thiwni mag dhahabu maler mokadi ka tol.
23 [The workman must] make two gold rings, and attach them to the upper corners of the sacred pouch.
Losne thiwni ariyo mag dhahabu kendo itwegi e riak law agoko.
24 [He must make] two gold cords, and fasten one end of each cord to one of the rings.
Twe thiwni ariyogo mag dhahabu e ratege mantie e riak law akor,
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.
kendo itwe lak thiwnigo komachielo e laini ariyo mochan kaka dhahabu ka ochome e tond law akor kuom law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod gi yo ka nyime.
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.
Los ratege ariyo mag dhahabu kendo ichomgi e konde ariyo mamoko mag law akor gi yo ka iye e riak law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod.
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.
Los ratege ariyo mag dhahabu kendo ichomgi e riak tonde ariyo mag gok yo ka nyime mar law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod machiegni gi kama oriwego but nungone.
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.
Ratege mag law akor nyaka twe e ratege mag law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod gi tol marambulu, kiriwe gi okanda manie nungone mondo law akor kik gonyre.
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]).
“Kinde duto ma Harun donjo e Kama Ler, notingʼ nying yawuot Israel e kore kondikgi e law akor mar ngʼado bura mondo obed kaka Rapar mochwere e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
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.”
Ket Urim gi Thumim bende kuom law akor mondo omi gibed kondikgi e agog Harun kinde duto ma odonjo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Kuom mano kinde duto ma Harun ni e nyim Jehova Nyasaye notingʼ gir ngʼado bura ne jo-Israel e agoge.”
31 “[Tell the workmen to] use only blue [cloth] to make the robe that is to be worn underneath the priest’s sacred apron.
“Los kandho mar law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod gi law marambulu,
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.
ka en gi kama otuch e diere ma wich wuokie. Kama otuch ma wich wuokieno nyaka twangʼ gi pien mondo kik oyiechi.
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.
Twangʼ gik mongʼinore kaka olemo molos gi usi marambulu gi maralik kod makwar kendo ket gara mar dhahabu e kindgi
34 Between each of these decorations, they must fasten a tiny gold bell.
Gara mag dhahabugo kod gik mongʼinore kolemogo nobed kokikore molworo riak law.
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].
Harun nyaka rwak lawno kotiyo tich dolo. Ywak garago nowinji kodonjo e Kama Ler e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kendo kowuok mondo kik otho.
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.’
“Los san mopamore gi dhahabu maler kendo indikie wechegi: Kama owal ne Jehova Nyasaye.
37 They should fasten this ornament to the front of the turban by a blue cord.
Twe gima ondikie wechego gi tol marambulu e kilemba mar jadolo gi yo ka nyime.
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.
Noliere e lela wangʼ Harun kendo notingʼ ketho duto ma dipo kobetie kuom mich maler ma jo-Israel chiwo ni Jehova Nyasaye. Kamano e kaka nobedi e lela wangʼ Harun kinde duto mondo Jehova Nyasaye oyie gi chiwogo.
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].
“Twangʼ law kandho mar law mayom mar katana kendo ilos kilemba gi law mayom mar katana. Okanda to mondo ogor gi ngʼama olony.
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.
Mondo omi yawuot Harun oyud duongʼ kod luor, losnigi lewni mag akor, okanda kod kilemba.
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.
Bangʼ ka iserwako lewnigi kuom owadu Harun gi yawuote, to wirgi gi mo kendo ipwodhgi. Walgi mondo gitina kaka jodolo.
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.
“Ilosnegi sirweche matindo mar law katana mondo giumgo dug-gi, chakre nungogi nyaka thochgi.
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.”
Harun gi yawuote nyaka rwak lewnigo kinde duto ma gidonjo e Hemb Romo, kata ka gidhi e kendo mar misango mondo giti tich dolo e Kama Ler mondo kik gibed giketho mi githo. “Ma nobed singruok mosiko ne Harun gi nyikwaye duto.
