Exodus 37
1 Bezalel made the ark of acacia wood. Its length was two and a half cubits; its width was one cubit and a half; and its height was one cubit and a half.
Bezaleli akatengeneza Sanduku la mbao za mshita: urefu wake ulikuwa dhiraa mbili na nusu, upana wake dhiraa moja na nusu, na kimo chake dhiraa moja na nusu.
2 He covered it inside and out with pure gold and made for it a border of gold around its top.
Akalifunika kwa dhahabu safi ndani na nje, na kulizungushia ukingo wa dhahabu.
3 He cast four rings of gold for its four feet, with two rings on one side of it, and two rings on the other side.
Akasubu pete nne za dhahabu na kuzifungia kwenye miguu yake minne, pete mbili kwa upande mmoja na pete mbili kwa upande mwingine.
4 He made poles of acacia wood and covered them with gold.
Kisha akatengeneza mipiko ya mti wa mshita na kuzifunika kwa dhahabu.
5 He put the poles into the rings on the ark's sides, in order to carry the ark.
Akaiingiza hiyo mipiko kwenye zile pete katika pande mbili za Sanduku ili kulibeba.
6 He made an atonement lid of pure gold. Its length was two and a half cubits, and its width was one and a half cubits.
Akatengeneza kifuniko cha upatanisho kwa dhahabu safi: urefu wake ulikuwa dhiraa mbili na nusu, na upana wake dhiraa moja na nusu.
7 Bezalel made two cherubim of hammered gold for the two ends of the atonement lid.
Kisha akatengeneza makerubi wawili wa dhahabu iliyofuliwa katika miisho ya hicho kifuniko.
8 One cherub was for one end of the atonement lid, and other cherub was for the other end. They were made as one piece with the atonement lid.
Akatengeneza kerubi mmoja kwenye mwisho mmoja, na kerubi mwingine kwenye mwisho mwingine; akawatengeneza kuwa kitu kimoja na hicho kifuniko katika miisho hiyo miwili.
9 The cherubim spread out their wings upward and overshadowed the atonement lid with them. The cherubim faced one another and looked toward the center of the atonement lid.
Makerubi hao walikuwa wametandaza mabawa kuelekea juu, wakitia kivuli hicho kifuniko. Makerubi hao walielekeana, wakitazama hicho kifuniko.
10 Bezalel made the table of acacia wood. Its length was two cubits, its width was one cubit, and its height was one and a half cubits.
Akatengeneza meza ya mbao za mshita yenye urefu wa dhiraa mbili, upana wa dhiraa moja, na kimo cha dhiraa moja na nusu.
11 He covered it with pure gold and put a border of pure gold around the top.
Kisha akaifunika kwa dhahabu safi, na kuitengenezea ukingo wa dhahabu kuizunguka pande zote.
12 He made a surrounding frame for it one handbreadth wide, with a surrounding border of gold for the frame.
Pia akatengeneza upapi wenye upana wa nyanda nne, na kuufanyia ule upapi ukingo wa dhahabu kuuzunguka pande zote.
13 He cast for it four rings of gold and attached the rings to the four corners, where the four feet were.
Akasubu pete nne za dhahabu kwa ajili ya meza hiyo, na kuzifungia kwenye pembe nne, pale penye miguu yake minne.
14 The rings were attached to the frame to provide places for the poles, in order to carry the table.
Pete hizo ziliwekwa karibu na ukingo ule ili kuishikilia ile mipiko iliyotumika kuibebea hiyo meza.
15 He made the poles out of acacia wood and covered them with gold, in order to carry the table.
Mipiko hiyo ya kubebea meza ilitengenezwa kwa mti wa mshita, na ilikuwa imefunikwa kwa dhahabu.
16 He made the objects that would be on the table—the dishes, spoons, the bowls, and pitchers to be used to pour out the offerings. He made them out of pure gold.
Vyombo vyote vya mezani vilitengenezwa kwa dhahabu safi: yaani sahani zake, masinia, na bakuli na bilauri zake kwa ajili ya kumiminia sadaka za vinywaji.
17 He made the lampstand of pure hammered gold. He made the lampstand with its base and shaft. Its cups, its leafy bases, and its flowers were all made of one piece with it.
Akatengeneza kinara cha taa cha dhahabu safi iliyofuliwa vizuri katika kitako chake na ufito wake; vikombe vyake vilivyofanana na ua, matovu na maua vilikuwa kitu kimoja.
18 Six branches extended out from its sides—three branches extended from one side, and three branches of the lampstand extended from the other side.
Matawi sita yalitokeza kuanzia ule ufito wa katikati wa kinara cha taa: matawi matatu upande mmoja na matatu upande mwingine.
19 The first branch had three cups made like almond blossoms, with a leafy base and a flower, and three cups made like almond blossoms in the other branch, with a leafy base and a flower. It was the same for all six branches extending out from the lampstand.
Vikombe vitatu vya mfano wa maua ya mlozi yenye matovu na maua vilikuwa katika tawi moja, vikombe vitatu katika tawi jingine, na vivyo hivyo kwa matawi yote sita yaliyotokeza kwenye kile kinara cha taa.
20 On the lampstand itself, the central shaft, there were four cups made like almond blossoms, with their leafy bases and the flowers.
Juu ya kinara chenyewe kulikuwepo na vikombe vinne vya mfano wa maua ya mlozi yakiwa na matovu yake na maua yake.
21 There was a leafy base under the first pair of branches—made as one piece with it, and a leafy base under the second pair of branches—also made as one piece with it. In the same way there was a leafy base under the third pair of branches, made as one piece with it. It was the same for all six branches extending out from the lampstand.
Tovu moja lilikuwa chini ya jozi ya kwanza ya matawi yaliyotokeza kwenye kinara cha taa, tovu la pili chini ya jozi ya pili, nalo tovu la tatu chini ya jozi ya tatu, yaani, matawi sita kwa jumla.
22 Their leafy bases and branches were all one piece with it, one beaten piece of work of pure gold.
Matovu na matawi yote yalikuwa kitu kimoja na kile kinara cha taa, yakiwa yamefuliwa kwa dhahabu safi.
23 Bezalel made the lampstand and its seven lamps, its tongs and their trays of pure gold.
Akatengeneza taa zake saba, na pia mikasi ya kusawazishia tambi, pamoja na masinia, zote kwa dhahabu safi.
24 He made the lampstand and its accessories with one talent of pure gold.
Akatengeneza kinara hicho cha taa pamoja na vifaa vyake vyote kutumia talanta moja ya dhahabu safi.
25 Bezalel made the incense altar. He made it with acacia wood. Its length was one cubit, and its width one cubit. It was square, and its height was two cubits. Its horns were made as one piece with it.
Akatengeneza madhabahu ya kufukizia uvumba kwa mbao za mshita. Ilikuwa ya mraba, urefu na upana wake dhiraa moja, na kimo cha dhiraa mbili, nazo pembe zake zilikuwa kitu kimoja nayo.
26 He covered the incense altar with pure gold—its top, its sides, and its horns. He also made a surrounding border of gold for it.
Akafunika hayo madhabahu juu na pande zote na pia zile pembe zake kwa dhahabu safi, na akayafanyizia ukingo wa dhahabu kuizunguka.
27 He made two golden rings to be attached to it under its border on its two opposite sides. The rings were holders for poles to carry the altar.
Akatengeneza pete mbili za dhahabu kwa ajili ya madhabahu chini ya huo ukingo, zikiwa mbili kila upande, za kushikilia hiyo mipiko iliyotumika kuyabebea madhabahu.
28 He made the poles of acacia wood, and he covered them with gold.
Akatengeneza mipiko kwa miti ya mshita na kuifunika kwa dhahabu.
29 He made the holy anointing oil and the pure fragrant incense, the work of a perfumer.
Pia akatengeneza mafuta matakatifu ya upako, na uvumba safi wenye harufu nzuri, kazi ya mtengeneza manukato.
