Exodus 40
1 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Mose,
2 On the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
“Imika chihema, tenti ya msonkhano, tsiku loyamba la mwezi.
3 And thou shalt put in it the ark of the testimony, and cover the ark with the vail.
Uyikemo bokosi la umboni ndipo uphimbe bokosilo ndi katani.
4 And thou shalt bring in the table, and set in order the things that are to be set in order upon it; and thou shalt bring in the candlestick, and light its lamps.
Ulowetsemo tebulo ndi kuyika zimene zimakhala pamenepo. Kenaka ulowetse choyikapo nyale ndipo uyikepo nyale zake.
5 And thou shalt set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the hanging of the door to the tabernacle.
Uyike guwa lofukiza la golide patsogolo pa bokosi la umboni ndipo uyike katani ya pa chipata cha chihema.
6 And thou shalt set the altar of the, burnt-offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
“Uyike guwa lansembe yopsereza patsogolo pa chipata cha chihema, tenti ya msonkhano.
7 And thou shalt set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and shalt put water in it.
Uyike beseni pakati pa tenti ya msonkhano ndi guwa lansembe ndipo uyikemo madzi.
8 And thou shalt set up the court round about, and hang up the hanging at the court-gate.
Upange bwalo lozungulira chihemacho ndipo uyike katani ya pa chipata cha bwalolo.
9 And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that [is] in it, and shalt hallow it, and all its vessels: and it shall be holy.
“Utenge mafuta wodzozera ndipo udzoze chihema ndi chilichonse chili mʼmenemo ndipo zidzakhala zoyeretsedwa.
10 And thou shalt anoint the altar of the burnt-offering and all its vessels, and sanctify the altar: and it shall be an altar most holy.
Kenaka udzoze guwa lansembe lopsereza ndi ziwiya zake zonse. Ulipatule guwalo ndipo lidzakhala loyera kwambiri.
11 And thou shalt anoint the laver and its foot, and sanctify it.
Udzoze beseni ndi miyendo yake ndipo uzipatule.
12 And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.
“Ubwere ndi Aaroni ndi ana ake pa chipata cha tenti ya msonkhano ndipo uwasambitse ndi madzi.
13 And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments, and anoint him, and sanctify him; that he may minister to me in the priest's office.
Kenaka umuveke Aaroni zovala zopatulika, umudzoze ndi kumupatula kotero kuti athe kunditumikira monga wansembe.
14 And thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them with coats:
Ubweretse ana ake ndipo uwaveke minjiro.
15 And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father, that they may minister to me in the priest's office: for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.
Uwadzoze monga momwe unadzozera abambo awo, kotero kuti anditumikire monga ansembe. Kudzozedwako kudzakhala unsembe wawo pa mibado ndi mibado”
16 Thus did Moses; according to all that the LORD commanded him, so did he.
Mose anachita zonse monga Yehova anamulamulira.
17 And it came to pass in the first month, in the second year, on the first [day] of the month, [that] the tabernacle was reared up.
Kotero anayimika chihema tsiku loyamba la mwezi woyamba mʼchaka chachiwiri.
18 And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and fastened its sockets, and set up its boards, and put in its bars, and reared up its pillars.
Nthawi imene Mose anayimika chihema, anayika matsinde mʼmalo ake, kuyimitsa maferemu, kulowetsa mitanda ndi kuyika nsichi.
19 And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it; as the LORD commanded Moses.
Kenaka anayika tenti pamwamba pa chihema ndipo anayika chophimba pa tenti monga momwe Yehova analamulira Mose.
20 And he took and put the testimony into the ark, and set the staffs on the ark, and put the mercy-seat above upon the ark:
Iye anatenga miyala ya umboni nayika mʼbokosi lija ndi kuyika chivundikiro pamwamba pake.
21 And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the vail of the covering, and covered the ark of the testimony; as the LORD commanded Moses.
Kenaka analowetsa bokosilo mʼchihema ndipo anapachika katani ndi kubisa bokosi la umboni monga momwe Yehova analamulira iye.
22 And he put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the vail.
Mose anayika tebulo mu tenti ya msonkhano kumpoto kwa chihema, kunja kwa katani,
23 And he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
ndipo anayikapo buledi pamaso pa Yehova, monga momwe Yehova analamulira Mose.
24 And he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation, over against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.
Iye anayikanso choyikapo nyale mu tenti ya msonkhano moyangʼanana ndi tebulo mbali yakummwera kwa chihema.
25 And he lighted the lamps before the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moses.
Ndipo anayikapo nyale zija pamaso pa Yehova, monga Yehova analamulira Mose.
26 And he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation, before the vail:
Mose anayika guwa la golide mu tenti ya msonkhano patsogolo pa katani
27 And he burnt sweet incense on it; as the LORD commanded Moses.
ndipo anapserezapo lubani wonunkhira monga Yehova anamulamulira.
28 And he set up the hanging [at] the door of the tabernacle.
Kenaka anayika katani ya pa chipata cha chihema.
29 And he put the altar of burnt-offering [by] the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation, and offered upon it the burnt-offering, and the meat-offering; as the LORD commanded Moses.
Iye anayika guwa lansembe yopsereza pafupi ndi chipata cha chihema, tenti ya msonkhano, ndipo anapereka nsembe yopsereza ndi nsembe ya ufa monga Yehova anamulamulira.
30 And he set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and put water there, to wash [with].
Iye anayika beseni pakati pa tenti ya msonkhano ndi guwa lansembe ndipo anathiramo madzi wosamba,
31 And Moses, and Aaron, and his sons, washed their hands and their feet thereat:
ndipo Mose, Aaroni ndi ana ake amasamba manja ndi mapazi awo.
32 When they went into the tent of the congregation, and when they came near to the altar, they washed; as the LORD commanded Moses.
Iwo amasamba nthawi zonse akamalowa mu tenti ya msonkhano kapena kuyandikira guwa lansembe monga Yehova analamulira Mose.
33 And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the hanging of the court-gate: so Moses finished the work.
Kenaka Mose anamanga bwalo kuzungulira chihema ndi guwa lansembe ndipo anayika katani ya pa chipata cha bwalo. Kotero Mose anamaliza ntchito.
34 Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
Kenaka mtambo unaphimba tenti ya msonkhano, ndipo ulemerero wa Yehova unadzaza mʼchihemacho.
35 And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation, because the cloud abode upon it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
Mose sanathe kulowa mu tenti ya msonkhano chifukwa mtambo unali utakhazikika pa chihemacho, ndipo ulemerero wa Yehova unadzaza mʼchihemacho.
36 And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys:
Pa maulendo awo onse, mtambo ukachoka pamwamba pa chihema, Aisraeli ankasamukanso pamene analipo.
37 But if the cloud was not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.
Koma ngati mtambo sunachoke, iwo sankasamukanso mpaka tsiku limene udzachoke.
38 For the cloud of the LORD [was] upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
Kotero mtambo wa Yehova unkakhala pamwamba pa chihema usana, ndi mtambo wamoto umakhala usiku, pamaso pa nyumba yonse ya Israeli pa masiku onse aulendo wawo.
