Exodus 30

1 “You shall make an altar to burn incense on. You shall make it of acacia wood.

“Pea te ke ngaohi ʻae feilaulauʻanga ke tutu ai ʻae meʻa namu kakala: ke ke ngaohi ʻaki ia ʻae ʻakau ko e sitimi.

2 Its length shall be a cubit, and its width a cubit. It shall be square, and its height shall be two cubits. Its horns shall be of one piece with it.

Ko e hanga ʻe ua ʻa hono lōloa, mo e hanga ʻe ua ʻa hono māukupu; ʻe tatau pe hono potu ʻe fā: pea ko e hanga ʻe fā ʻa hono māʻolunga: pea ko hono ngaahi nifo ʻe ʻi he meʻa pe ko ia.

3 You shall overlay it with pure gold, its top, its sides around it, and its horns; and you shall make a gold molding around it.

Pea te ke ʻaofi ʻaki ia ʻae koula haohaoa, ʻa hono funga mo hono ngaahi kaokao ʻo takatakai ia, mo hono ngaahi nifo; pea te ke ngaohi ki ai ʻae tatā koula ke takatakai.

4 You shall make two golden rings for it under its molding; on its two ribs, on its two sides you shall make them; and they shall be for places for poles with which to bear it.

Pea te ke ngaohi ki ai ʻae kavei koula ʻe ua, ʻi lalo ʻi he tatā, ʻo ofi ki hono tuliki ʻe ua, ke ke ngaohi ia ki hono faʻahi ʻe ua: pea ko e ʻaiʻanga ia ʻoe ongo ʻakau ke haʻamo ʻaki.

5 You shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold.

Pea te ke ngaohi ʻae ongo haʻamo ʻaki ʻae ʻakau ko e sitimi, pea ʻaofi ia ʻaki ʻae koula.

6 You shall put it before the veil that is by the ark of the covenant, before the mercy seat that is over the covenant, where I will meet with you.

Pea te ke tuku ia ʻi he tuʻa puipui ʻoku ofi ki he puha ʻoe fuakava, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe nofoʻanga ʻaloʻofa, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he fuakava, ʻaia te u fakafetaulaki ai mo koe.

7 Aaron shall burn incense of sweet spices on it every morning. When he tends the lamps, he shall burn it.

Pea ʻe tutu ʻi ai ʻe ʻElone ʻae meʻa namu kakala ʻi he pongipongi kotoa pē: ʻi heʻene teuʻi ʻae ngaahi maama, te ne tutu ai ʻae meʻa namu kakala.

8 When Aaron lights the lamps at evening, he shall burn it, a perpetual incense before Yahweh throughout your generations.

Pea ka tutu ʻe ʻElone ʻae ngaahi maama ʻi he efiafi, pea ʻe tutu ʻe ia ʻae meʻa namu kakala ki ai, ko e meʻa namu kakala maʻuaipē ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi homou ngaahi toʻutangata kotoa pē.

9 You shall offer no strange incense on it, nor burnt offering, nor meal offering; and you shall pour no drink offering on it.

‌ʻOua te mou ʻatu ʻi ai ha meʻa namu kakala kehe, pe ha feilaulau tutu, pe ha feilaulau meʻakai: pea ʻoua naʻa mou lilingi ki ai ha feilaulau inu.

10 Aaron shall make atonement on its horns once in the year; with the blood of the sin offering of atonement once in the year he shall make atonement for it throughout your generations. It is most holy to Yahweh.”

Pea ʻe fai ʻe ʻElone ʻo tuʻo taha ʻi he taʻu ʻae fakalelei ʻi he ngaahi nifo ʻo ia ʻaki ʻae toto ʻoe feilaulau fakalelei maʻae angahala: tuʻo taha ʻi he taʻu te ne fai ʻae fakalelei ʻi ai ʻi homou ngaahi toʻutangata ko e meʻa tapu lahi ia kia Sihova.”

11 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,

12 “When you take a census of the children of Israel, according to those who are counted among them, then each man shall give a ransom for his soul to Yahweh when you count them, that there be no plague among them when you count them.

“ʻOka ke ka lau ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo fakatatau ki honau tokolahi, te nau toki ʻatu kia Sihova ʻe he tangata taki taha ha meʻa ke huhuʻi ʻaki hono laumālie, ʻoka ke ka lau ʻakinautolu: koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa hoko ha malaʻia kiate kinautolu, ʻoka ke ka lau ʻakinautolu.

13 They shall give this, everyone who passes over to those who are counted, half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary (the shekel is twenty gerahs); half a shekel for an offering to Yahweh.

Ko eni ia te nau ʻatu: ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku kau mo kinautolu kuo lau, ʻe ʻatu hono vaeuaʻanga ʻoe sikeli ʻo fakatatau ki he sikeli ʻoe fale fehikitaki: (pea ko e kela ʻe uofulu ʻae sikeli, ) ko hono vaeuaʻanga ʻoe sikeli ko e feilaulau ia kia Sihova.

14 Everyone who passes over to those who are counted, from twenty years old and upward, shall give the offering to Yahweh.

Ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku kau mo kinautolu kuo lau, mei he taʻu ʻe uofulu ʻo ʻene motuʻa ʻo fai hake, te nau ʻomi ha feilaulau kia Sihova.

15 The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less, than the half shekel, when they give the offering of Yahweh, to make atonement for your souls.

‌ʻE ʻikai ʻatu ha meʻa lahi hake ʻe he koloaʻia, pea ʻoua naʻa ʻatu ke siʻi hifo ʻe he masiva ʻi he vaeuaʻanga ʻoe sikeli, ʻoka nau ka ʻatu ʻae meʻaʻofa kia Sihova, ke fai ʻaki ʻae fakalelei koeʻuhi ko honau laumālie.

16 You shall take the atonement money from the children of Israel, and shall appoint it for the service of the Tent of Meeting; that it may be a memorial for the children of Israel before Yahweh, to make atonement for your souls.”

Pea te ke toʻo ʻae ngaahi paʻanga fakalelei ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo vahe ia ki he ngāue ʻoe fale fakatahaʻanga ʻoe kakai: koeʻuhi ke hoko ia ko e meʻa fakamanatu ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ke fai ʻaki ʻae fakalelei ki homou laumālie.”

17 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

“Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē:

18 “You shall also make a basin of bronze, and its base of bronze, in which to wash. You shall put it between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and you shall put water in it.

Ke ke ngaohi foki ʻae sene palasa pea palasa mo hono tuʻunga foki, ke fanofano ai: pea ke tuku ia ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe fale fakatahaʻanga ʻoe kakai mo e feilaulauʻanga, pea ke lingi ki ai ʻae vai.

19 Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet in it.

He ko ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha te nau fanofano honau nima mo kaukau honau vaʻe ʻi ai:

20 When they go into the Tent of Meeting, they shall wash with water, that they not die; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

‌ʻI heʻenau hū ki he fale fakatahaʻanga ʻoe kakai, te nau fanofano ʻaki ʻae vai, telia naʻa nau mate; pe ʻi heʻenau haʻu ʻo ofi ki he feilaulauʻanga ke ngāue, ke tutu ʻae feilaulau kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae afi kia Sihova:

21 So they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they not die. This shall be a statute forever to them, even to him and to his descendants throughout their generations.”

Ko ia te nau fanofano honau nima mo kaukauʻi honau vaʻe, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa nau mate: pea ko e fekau maʻuaipē ia kiate kinautolu, ʻio, kiate ia mo ʻene fānau ʻi honau ngaahi toʻutangata.”

22 Moreover Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

Pea naʻe folofola foki ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,

23 “Also take fine spices: of liquid myrrh, five hundred shekels; and of fragrant cinnamon half as much, even two hundred and fifty; and of fragrant cane, two hundred and fifty;

“Ke ke toʻo foki kiate koe ʻae ʻakau fungani nanamu, ko e mula moʻonia, [ko e sikeli ]e nimangeau, mo e sinamoni namu kakala, hono vaeuaʻanga ʻe taha, ʻio, [ko e sikeli ]e uangeau mo e nimangofulu, mo e kalamusi namu kakala[ko e sikeli ]e uangeau ma nimangofulu,

24 and of cassia five hundred, according to the shekel of the sanctuary; and a hin of olive oil.

Pea mo e kāsia[ko e sikeli ]e nimangeau, ʻo fakatatau ki he sikeli ʻoe fale tapu, mo e lolo ʻolive ko e hini ʻe taha:

25 You shall make it into a holy anointing oil, a perfume compounded after the art of the perfumer: it shall be a holy anointing oil.

Pea te ke ngaohi ʻaki ia ʻae lolo tākai ʻoku tapu, ko e lolo tākai kuo hakaluku ʻo fakatatau mo e poto ʻoe tufunga fai lolo lelei: ko e lolo tākai tapu ia.

26 You shall use it to anoint the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the covenant,

Pea ke tākai ʻaki ia ʻae fale fakatahaʻanga ʻoe kakai, mo e puha ʻoe fuakava,

27 the table and all its articles, the lamp stand and its accessories, the altar of incense,

Mo e palepale mo hono ngaahi nāunau kotoa pē, mo e tuʻunga maama mo hono ngaahi nāunau, mo e feilaulauʻanga ʻoe meʻa namu kakala,

28 the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin with its base.

Mo e feilaulauʻanga ʻoe feilaulau tutu mo hono nāunau kotoa pē, mo e sene mo hono tuʻunga.

29 You shall sanctify them, that they may be most holy. Whatever touches them shall be holy.

Pe te ke fakatapui ʻakinautolu ke nau māʻoniʻoni lahi: ko ia fulipē ʻe lave ki ai ʻe māʻoniʻoni ia.

30 You shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and sanctify them, that they may minister to me in the priest’s office.

Pea te ke tākai ʻa ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha, ʻo fakanofo ʻakinautolu, koeʻuhi ke nau ngāue kiate au ʻi he ngāue ʻae taulaʻeiki.

31 You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘This shall be a holy anointing oil to me throughout your generations.

Pea ke lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, koe lolo tākai tapu eni kiate au ʻi homou toʻutangata kotoa pē.

32 It shall not be poured on man’s flesh, and do not make any like it, according to its composition. It is holy. It shall be holy to you.

‌ʻOua naʻa lingi ia ki he sino ʻoe tangata, pea ʻoua naʻa fai ha lolo ke hangē ko ia hono ngaohi; ʻoku tapu ia, pea ʻe māʻoniʻoni ia kiate kimoutolu.

33 Whoever compounds any like it, or whoever puts any of it on a stranger, he shall be cut off from his people.’”

Ko ia ʻe fai ha lolo hangē ko ia, mo ia ʻoku ne ʻai ia ki ha taha kehe, ʻe motuhi ia mei hono kakai.”

34 Yahweh said to Moses, “Take to yourself sweet spices, gum resin, onycha, and galbanum: sweet spices with pure frankincense. There shall be an equal weight of each.

Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Toʻo kiate koe ʻae ngaahi ʻakau nanamu, ʻae sitakiti, mo e ʻonika, mo e kalipeno; ko e ngaahi ʻakau nanamu ni mo e laipeno moʻonia: ke mamafa tatau pe kotoa pē:

35 You shall make incense of it, a perfume after the art of the perfumer, seasoned with salt, pure and holy.

Pea ke ngaohi ia ko e meʻa tākai nanamu, ʻo fefiofi ʻo fakatatau ki he poto ʻoe tufunga fai lolo, ʻo natu fakataha ke lelei mo tapu.

36 You shall beat some of it very small, and put some of it before the covenant in the Tent of Meeting, where I will meet with you. It shall be to you most holy.

Pea te ke tuki hono meʻa siʻi ke fakaikiiki, ʻo ʻai ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fuakava ʻi he fale fakatahaʻanga ʻoe kakai, ʻaia te u fakafetaulaki ai kiate koe: ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ia ko e [meʻa ]tapu lahi.

37 You shall not make this incense, according to its composition, for yourselves: it shall be to you holy for Yahweh.

Pea koeʻuhi ko e meʻa namu kakala te ke ngaohi, ʻoua naʻa mou ngaohi maʻamoutolu ʻo fakatatau mo hono ngaohi ʻo ia: ʻe ʻiate koe ia ko e[meʻa ]tapu kia Sihova.

38 Whoever shall make any like that, to smell of it, he shall be cut off from his people.”

Ko ia ʻe fai ke hangē ko ia ke nanamu ki ai, ʻe motuhi ia mei hono kakai.”
