< Exodus 31 >

1 Yahweh [also] said to Moses/me, “Note that I have chosen Bezalel, the son of Uri and grandson of Hur, from the tribe of Judah, [for special tasks].
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
2
“Ilaa, ani gosa Yihuudaa keessaa Bezaliʼeel ilma Uuri, ilma Huuri filadheera;
3 I have caused him to be completely controlled/empowered by my Spirit, and I have given him special ability [to make things] and have enabled him to know how to do very skilled work.
ani Hafuura Waaqaatiin, ogummaadhaan, dandeettii fi beekumsa hojii harkaa gosa hundumaan isa guuteera;
4 He can engrave skillful designs in gold, silver, and bronze.
Kunis akka inni warqeedhaan, meetii fi naasiidhaan hojii ogummaa hojjetuuf;
5 He can cut (jewels/valuable stones) and enclose them [in tiny gold settings/frames]. He can carve things from wood and do other skilled work.
akka inni dhagaawwan muree qopheessuuf, akka muka soofuu fi akka hojii ogummaa harkaa kan gosa hundaa keessatti hirmaatuuf.
6 Note that I have also appointed Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, from the tribe of Dan, to work with him. I have also given special ability to other men, in order that they can make all the things that I have commanded you [to be made].
Akkasumas ani kunoo akka inni isa gargaaruuf Oholiiyaab ilma Ahiisaamaak kan gosa Daan sana muudeera. “Akka isaan waan ani si ajaje hunda hojjetaniif ogeeyyii hojii harkaa hundaaf ogummaa kenneera.
7 That includes the Sacred Tent, the sacred chest and its lid, all the other things that will be inside the Sacred Tent,
“Isaanis dunkaana wal gaʼii, taabota kakuu seeraatii fi teessoo araaraa kan taabota sana irra jiru, miʼa dunkaana sanaa hunda jechuunis
8 the table and all the things that are used with it, the pure gold lampstand and all the things that are used to take care of it, the altar [for burning] incense,
minjaalaa fi miʼa isaa, baattuu ibsaa kan warqee qulqulluu irraa tolfamee fi miʼa isaa hunda, iddoo aarsaa ixaanaa,
9 the altar for offering sacrifices that will be burned and all the things that will be used with it, the washbasin and its base,
iddoo aarsaa qalma gubamuutii fi miʼa isaa hunda, gabatee itti dhiqatanii fi miilla isaa,
10 all the beautiful sacred clothes for Aaron and his sons to wear when they work as priests,
wayyaawwan miidhagfamanii dhaʼaman, wayyaawwan Aroon lubichaaf qulqulleeffamanii fi wayyaawwan ilmaan isaa yeroo lubummaadhaan tajaajilan uffatan,
11 the oil for anointing, and the sweet-smelling incense for the Holy Place. [The skilled workers] must make all these things exactly as I have told you to do.”
Iddoo Qulqulluu sanaaf immoo zayitii dibataatii fi ixaana urgaaʼu haa qopheessan. “Isaan akkuma ani si ajaje sanatti haa hojjetan.”
12 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
13 “Tell the Israeli people, ‘Obey my instructions regarding the (rest days/Sabbath days). Those days will remind you [and your descendants], throughout all future generations, that I, Yahweh, have (set you apart/chosen you) to be my people.
“Saba Israaʼeliin akkana jedhi; ‘Isin Sanbattoota koo eegaa. Ani Waaqayyo isa isin qulqulleessu akkan taʼe akka beektaniif kun dhaloota dhufu keessatti anaa fi isin gidduutti mallattoo taʼa.
14 You must obey [my rules about] the Sabbath days because they are holy/sacred. Those who treat those days in an irreverent way by working on those days must be executed [to show that] I no longer consider them to belong to my people.
“‘Waan Sanbanni isiniif qulqulluu taʼeef isa eegaa. Namni Sanbata xureessu haa ajjeefamu; namni guyyaa sana hojii hojjetu kam iyyuu saba isaa keessaa haa balleeffamu.
15 You may work for six days [each week], but the seventh day [of each week] is a solemn day of rest, dedicated to me, Yahweh. Anyone who does any work on a day of rest is to be executed [because I no longer want them to be able to associate with my people].
Guyyaa jaʼa hojiin haa hojjetamu; guyyaan torbaffaan garuu sanbata boqonnaa ti; guyyaan kun Waaqayyoof qulqulluu dha. Namni guyyaa Sanbataa hojii hojjetu kam iyyuu haa ajjeefamu.
16 You Israeli people must respect the rest day, and you [and your descendants] must (celebrate it/keep it holy) throughout all future generations. [It will remind you] of the agreement that I have made with you that will last forever.
Israaʼeloonni Sanbata kana kakuu bara baraa godhatanii dhaloota dhufu keessa haa eegan.
17 It will remind you Israeli people and remind me [of that agreement] because I, Yahweh, created the heavens and the earth in six days, and on the seventh day I stopped doing that work and relaxed.’”
Kunis anaa fi Israaʼeloota gidduutti mallattoo bara baraa taʼa; Waaqayyo guyyaa jaʼa keessatti samii fi lafa uumee guyyaa torbaffaatti boqotee aara galfateeraatii.’”
18 When Yahweh finished talking with Moses/me on the top of Sinai Mountain, he gave him/me the two stone slabs on which he had engraved his commandments with his own fingers.
Waaqayyo akkuma Gaara Siinaa irratti Museetti dubbatee raawwateen gabatee dhugaa lamaan jechuunis gabateewwan dhuga baʼumsaa kanneen qubni Waaqaa irratti barreesse sana isatti kenne.
