Exodus 37
1 Then Bezalel made the [sacred] chest from acacia wood. It was (45 in./110 cm.) long, (27 in./66 cm.) wide, and (27 in./66 cm.) high.
Bezalel ni anri thing e thingkong hah ayung dong hni tangawn, adangka dong touh hoi tangawn, arasang dong touh hoi tangawn hoi a sak.
2 He covered it with pure gold inside and outside the chest, and he made a gold border around the top of it.
A thung hoi alawilah sui tui kathoung hoi hluk e lah ao teh, sui hoi a rai yep e lah ao.
3 He made/cast four rings from gold [and fastened them] to the legs of the chest. He put two rings on each side of the chest.
A khok pali touh pâhung nahanelah, sui laikaw pali touh a hlun. Laikaw kahni touh e teh avanglah hane a tho teh, alouke kahni touh e teh avanglah hane a tho.
4 He made [two] poles from acacia wood, and covered them with gold.
Hahoi anri thing hoi kâkayawtnae acung hah a sak teh, sui tui hoi a hluk.
5 He put the poles into the rings on the sides of the chest, in order that the chest could be carried [by means of the poles].
Thingkong hah kâkayawt thai nahanelah a tapang dawk e laikaw dawk a hrawt.
6 He made a lid for the chest. That was [the place where Yahweh would] forgive people’s sins. It [also] was (45 in./110 cm.) long and (27 in./66 cm.) wide.
Sui kathoung hoi lungmanae tungkhung hah a sak teh, ayung dong hni touh hoi tangawn, adangka dong touh hoi tangawn.
7 He made two winged creatures from hammered gold.
Hahoi cherubim kahni touh hah sui hoi a sak. Lungmanae tungkhung som dawk e roi teh dei lah a dei.
8 One of these was put at each end of the chest. The gold [with which they were made] was joined to the gold from which the lid [was made].
Avang lae apoutnae koe cherubim buet touh, avanglae apoutnae koe cherubim buet touh, lungmanae tungkhung hoi kâbet sak hanelah avoivang lah apoutnae koe vah cherubim hah a ta.
9 [He placed] the winged creatures facing each other so that their wings touched each other and spread out over the lid.
Cherubim hah minhmai kâhmo lah, lungmanae tungkhung hah a rathei a kadai teh a khu teh, lungmanae tungkhung koe lah a kangvawi.
10 Bezalel made a table from acacia wood. It was (36 in./88 cm.) long, (18 in./44 cm.) wide, and (27 in./66 cm.) high.
Hahoi anri thing hoi caboi hah a sak teh, ayung dong hni touh, adangka dong touh, arasang dong touh hoi tangawn.
11 He covered it with pure gold, and he put a gold border around it.
Hot teh suitui kathoung hoi hluk lah ao teh sui hoi a tâphai hah a pacawp.
12 He made a rim all around it, (3 in./7 cm.) wide. He put a gold border around the rim.
Kuttabei hlawk touh a tâphai a sak teh, sui hoi a pacawp.
13 He made/cast four rings from gold and fastened the rings to the four corners of the table, one ring close to each leg [of the table].
Hot hanelah sui laikaw pali touh a hlun teh, hote laikaw pali touh hah caboi khok pali touh dawk a bet.
14 The rings were fastened to the table near the rim.
Caboi teh kâkayawt thai nahanelah laikaw teh a tâphai teng vah a bang.
15 He made two poles from acacia wood and covered them with gold. These poles for carrying the table were then inserted into the rings.
Caboi teh kâkayawt thai nahanelah acung hah anri thing hoi a sak teh sui tui hoi a hluk.
16 He also made from pure gold all the things to be put on the table. He made the plates, the cups, and the jars and bowls to be used [when the priests] poured out wine [as an offering to Yahweh].
Caboi van vah hno hane tongben, pacen, awi nahane manangkhom hah sui kathoung hoi a sak.
17 [He] made the lampstand from pure gold. Its base and its shaft were hammered from [one large lump of] gold. [The branches of the lampstand], the cups for holding the oil, the flower buds and the petals [that decorated the branches of the lamp, the base, and the shaft were all hammered from] one [big] lump of gold.
Hahoi hmaiimkhok teh suikathoung hoi a sak. Hmaiimkhok teh dêi lah a dêi. A kutnaw, manangnaw, a peinaw teh koung kâkuen lah a dêi.
18 There were six branches on the lampstand, three on each side [of the shaft].
Hmaiimkhok avoivang lah a kang kathum touh reira a tâco teh, a kut taruk touh ao.
19 Each of the branches had on it three [gold decorations that looked like] almond blossoms. These decorations also had flower buds and [flower] petals.
Hmaiimkhok dawk hoi e a kang kathum touh dawk e a kang buet buet touh dawkvah, a peimuem, hoi almond paw hoi mei kâvan e manang kathum touh ao.
20 On the [shaft of the] lampstand there were four [gold decorations that also looked like] almond blossoms, each one with flower buds and [flower] petals.
Hmaiimkhok dawkvah a peimuem hoi almond paw hoi mei kâvan e manang pali touh ao.
21 On each side, beneath and extending from each of the branches, there was one [flower] bud.
Hmaiimkhok dawk a kut taruk touh ao e patetlah avoivang lae a kut kahni touh e rahim vah a peimuem buetbuet touh rip ao.
22 All these [flower] buds and branches, along with the shaft, were hammered from one large lump of pure gold.
A peimuem hoi a kutnaw hah buet touh lah koung a kâkuetsak teh abuemlahoi suikathoung hoi dei e doeh.
23 Bezalel also made seven small cups [for holding oil. He put one cup on top of the shaft and he put the others on top of the branches]. He made from pure gold the tongs [for removing the burned wicks] and the trays [in which to put the burned wicks].
Hmaiim sari touh hoi, paitei, paitei tanae naw pueng hai suikathoung hoi a sak.
24 He used (75 pounds/35 kg.) of pure gold to make the lampstand and all the things that were used to take care of it.
Hmaiim hoi hmaiim hnopai pueng hah suikathoung talen buet touh hoi a sak.
25 From acacia wood, Bezalel made the altar [for burning] incense. It was square, (18 in./45 cm.) on each side. It was (3 ft./90 cm.) high. He made [a projection that looked like] a horn on each of the top corners. The projections were carved from the same block of wood that the altar was made of.
Hahoi hmuitui sawi nahanelah anri thing hoi khoungroe hah a sak. Ayung dong touh, adangka dong touh. Takin pali touh ao. Arasang dong hni touh. A kinaw hoi koung a kâkuet.
26 He covered the top and the four sides, including the projections, with pure gold. He put a gold border around the altar, [near the top].
A lathueng lae a tapang hoi a kinaw teh, suikathoung tui hoi hluk lah ao teh suikathoung hoi a tâphai hah a pacawp.
27 He made two gold rings for carrying the altar. Then he attached them to the altar below the border, one on each side of the altar. The poles by means of which the altar was to be carried were to be inserted into those rings.
A tâphai a rahim lae a rai reira dawk sui laikaw kahni touh a sak teh, a hmo a voivang lah kahni reira koe sak lah ao. Hot hah teh kâkayawtnae acung hrawt nahane doeh.
28 He made those [two] poles from acacia wood and covered them with gold.
Hahoi anri thing hoi kâkayawtnae a sak teh suitui hoi hluk e lah ao.
29 He also made the sacred oil for anointing and the pure sweet-smelling incense. He mixed the incense together as a skilled perfumer would.
Hahoi kathounge satui hluk e, kathounge hmuitui sawi hanelah hmuitui ka sak thai e patetlah a sak.
