Exodus 38
1 [Several men helped] Bezalel to make the altar for burning sacrifices. They made it from acacia wood. It was square, (7-1/2 feet/2.2 meters) on each side, and it was (4-1/2 feet/1.3 meters) high.
Et il fit l’autel de l’holocauste de bois de sittim: sa longueur était de cinq coudées, et sa largeur de cinq coudées; il était carré, et sa hauteur était de trois coudées.
2 They 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]. They covered the whole altar with bronze.
Et il fit ses cornes à ses quatre coins; ses cornes étaient [tirées] de lui; et il le plaqua d’airain.
3 They made the pans in which to put the greasy ashes [from the animal sacrifices]. They also made the shovels for cleaning out the ashes. They made the basins and forks for turning the meat as it cooked, and buckets for carrying hot coals/ashes. All of those things were made from bronze.
Et il fit tous les ustensiles de l’autel: les vases, et les pelles, et les bassins, les fourchettes, et les brasiers; il fit tous ses ustensiles d’airain.
4 They also made a bronze grating to hold the wood and burning coals. They put the grating under the rim that went around the altar. [They] made it so that it was [inside the altar], halfway down.
Et il fit pour l’autel une grille en ouvrage de treillis, d’airain, au-dessous de son contour, en bas, jusqu’au milieu;
5 They made bronze rings in which to put the poles [for carrying the altar], and fastened one of them to each of the corners of the altar.
et il fondit quatre anneaux pour les quatre bouts de la grille d’airain, pour recevoir les barres.
6 They made the poles from acacia wood and covered them with bronze.
Et il fit les barres de bois de sittim, et les plaqua d’airain;
7 They put the poles through the rings on each side of the altar. The poles were for carrying the altar.
et il fit entrer les barres dans les anneaux, sur les côtés de l’autel, pour le porter par elles; il le fit creux, avec des planches.
8 The altar was [hollow] like an empty box. It was made from boards [of acacia wood]. They made/cast the washbasin and its base from bronze. The bronze was from the mirrors that belonged to the women who worked at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
Et il fit la cuve d’airain, et son soubassement d’airain, avec les miroirs des femmes qui s’attroupaient à l’entrée de la tente d’assignation.
9 [Around the Sacred Tent] Bezalel and his helpers made a courtyard. To form the courtyard, they made curtains of fine white linen. On the south side, the curtain was (150 feet/46 meters) long.
Et il fit le parvis: pour le côté du midi vers le sud, les tentures du parvis de fin coton retors, de 100 coudées,
10 [To hang the curtain], they made 20 bronze posts and 20 bronze bases, [one for under each post]. [To fasten the curtains to] the posts, they made silver hooks, and [they made metal] rods [covered with] silver.
leurs 20 piliers, et leurs 20 bases d’airain; les crochets des piliers et leurs baguettes d’attache étaient d’argent.
11 They made the same kind of curtains, posts, bases, and hooks for the north side of the courtyard.
Et pour le côté du nord, 100 coudées, leurs 20 piliers, et leurs 20 bases d’airain; les crochets des piliers et leurs baguettes d’attache, d’argent.
12 On the west side [of the courtyard], they made a curtain (75 feet/23 meters) long. They also made ten posts on which to hang the curtains, and ten bases, with silver hooks and [metal] rods [covered with] silver.
Et pour le côté de l’occident, des tentures de 50 coudées, leurs dix piliers et leurs dix bases; les crochets des piliers et leurs baguettes d’attache étaient d’argent.
13 On the east side, [where the entrance is], the courtyard was (75 feet/23 meters) wide.
Et pour le côté de l’orient, vers le levant, 50 coudées;
14 On each side of the entrance, they made a curtain (22-1/2 feet/6.6 meters) wide. On each side they [were hung from] three posts, and one base was under each post.
sur un côté 15 coudées de tentures, leurs trois piliers et leurs trois bases;
et sur l’autre côté, deçà et delà de la porte du parvis, 15 coudées de tentures, leurs trois piliers et leurs trois bases.
16 All the curtains around the courtyard were made from fine white linen.
Toutes les tentures du parvis, à l’entour, étaient de fin coton retors;
17 All the posts around the courtyard were made of bronze, but the tops were covered with silver. The posts were connected with [metal] rods [covered with] silver. The clasps/fasteners and hooks were made of silver.
et les bases des piliers, d’airain; les crochets des piliers et leurs baguettes d’attache, d’argent; et le plaqué de leurs chapiteaux, d’argent; et tous les piliers du parvis avaient des baguettes d’attache en argent.
18 For the entrance of the courtyard, they made a curtain from fine white linen, and a skilled weaver embroidered it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread. The curtain was (30 feet/9 meters) long and (7-1/2 feet/2.3 meters) high, just like the other curtains around the courtyard.
– Et le rideau de la porte du parvis était de bleu, et de pourpre, et d’écarlate, et de fin coton retors, en ouvrage de brodeur; et la longueur, de 20 coudées; et la hauteur, dans la largeur [de la porte], de cinq coudées, correspondant aux tentures du parvis;
19 All the curtains were made of fine white linen. They were supported by four posts, and [under each post] was a base made of bronze. All the posts around the courtyard were connected with [metal] rods [covered with] silver. The clasps/fasteners were made of silver, and the tops of the posts were covered with silver.
et ses quatre piliers, et leurs quatre bases, d’airain; leurs crochets, d’argent; et le plaqué de leurs chapiteaux et leurs baguettes d’attache, d’argent.
20 All the tent pegs to support the Sacred Tent and the curtains around the courtyard were made of bronze.
Et tous les pieux du tabernacle et du parvis, à l’entour, étaient d’airain.
21 Here is a list of the amounts of metal used to make the Sacred Tent. Moses/I told [some men from] the tribe of Levi to [count all the materials used and] write down the amounts. Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest, supervised those men.
Et c’est ici l’inventaire du tabernacle, du tabernacle du témoignage, qui fut dressé par le commandement de Moïse: [ce fut] le service des Lévites, sous la main d’Ithamar, fils d’Aaron, le sacrificateur.
22 Bezalel the son of Uri and grandson of Hur made all the things that Yahweh commanded Moses/me to be made.
Et Betsaleël, fils d’Uri, fils de Hur, de la tribu de Juda, fit tout ce que l’Éternel avait commandé à Moïse;
23 Bezalel’s helper was Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. Oholiab was a skilled engraver who made artistic things. He made fine white linen, and he embroidered designs using blue, purple, and red yarn/thread. He also made other cloth.
et avec lui Oholiab, fils d’Akhisamac, de la tribu de Dan, graveur, et inventeur, et brodeur en bleu, et en pourpre, et en écarlate, et en fin coton.
24 All the gold that was used to make the Sacred Tent weighed (2,195 pounds/1,000 kg.). They used the official standard when they weighed the gold.
Tout l’or qui fut employé pour l’œuvre, pour toute l’œuvre du lieu saint, l’or de l’offrande, fut de 29 talents et 730 sicles, selon le sicle du sanctuaire.
25 All the silver that the people contributed when the leaders (took the census/counted the men) weighed (7,500 pounds/3,400 kg.). They also used the official standard when they weighed the silver.
Et l’argent de ceux de l’assemblée qui furent dénombrés fut de 100 talents et 1 775 sicles, selon le sicle du sanctuaire,
26 All the men who were at least 20 years old were counted, and they each paid the required amount. That was a total of 603,550 men.
un béka par tête, la moitié d’un sicle, selon le sicle du sanctuaire, pour tous ceux qui passèrent par le dénombrement, depuis l’âge de 20 ans et au-dessus, pour 603 550 [hommes].
27 They used (75 pounds/34 kg.) of silver for making/casting each of the 100 bases to [put under the posts to support] the curtains of the Sacred Tent.
Et les 100 talents d’argent étaient pour fondre les bases du lieu saint, et les bases du voile, 100 bases pour les 100 talents, un talent par base;
28 Bezalel [and his helpers] used the (50 pounds/30 kg.) of silver that was not used for the bases to make the rods and the hooks for the posts, and to cover the tops of the posts.
et des 1 775 [sicles] on fit les crochets des piliers, et on plaqua leurs chapiteaux, et on les joignit par les baguettes.
29 The bronze that the people contributed weighed (5,310 pounds/2,425 kg.).
Et l’airain de l’offrande fut de 70 talents et 2 400 sicles;
30 With the bronze, Bezalel and his helpers made the bases for under the posts at the entrance of the Sacred Tent. They also made the altar for burning sacrifices, the grating for it and the tools used with it,
et on en fit les bases de l’entrée de la tente d’assignation, et l’autel d’airain, et la grille d’airain qui lui appartient, et tous les ustensiles de l’autel;
31 the bases for the posts [that supported the curtains] that surrounded the courtyard and the bases for the entrance to the courtyard, and the pegs for the Sacred Tent and for [the curtains around] the courtyard.
et les bases du parvis tout autour, et les bases de la porte du parvis, et tous les pieux du tabernacle, et tous les pieux du parvis, tout autour.
