Exodus 40
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Afei Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se,
2 “On the first day of the first month you shall raise up the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting.
“Ɔsram a edi kan no da a edi kan no na si Ahyiae Ntamadan no.
3 You shall put the ark of the covenant in it, and you shall screen the ark with the veil.
Wusi wie a, fa Apam Adaka a Mmaransɛm Du no wɔ mu no si mu. Na fa ntwamtam no twa Apam Adaka no anim ma ɛnhyɛ kronkron mu kronkron hɔ.
4 You shall bring in the table, and set in order the things that are on it. You shall bring in the lamp stand, and light its lamps.
Afei, fa ɔpon no besi hɔ na fa ɛho nneɛma nyinaa gu so na fa kaneadua no bra na sɔ kanea no.
5 You shall set the golden altar for incense before the ark of the covenant, and put the screen of the door to the tabernacle.
Fa sikakɔkɔɔ afɔremuka a wɔbɛhyew aduhuam wɔ so no besi Apam Adaka no anim na fa ɔpon no nkataanim sɛn Ahyiae Ntamadan no ano.
6 “You shall set the altar of burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting.
“Fa ɔhyew afɔremuka no si Ahyiae Ntamadan no kwan ano.
7 You shall set the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and shall put water therein.
Fa hweaseammɔ no si Ahyiae Ntamadan no ne afɔremuka no ntam na hyɛ no nsu ma.
8 You shall set up the court around it, and hang up the screen of the gate of the court.
Siesie adiwo twa Ahyiae Ntamadan no ho hyia na fa nsɛnanim no sɛn ne kwan no ano.
9 “You shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle and all that is in it, and shall make it holy, and all its furniture, and it will be holy.
“Fa ɔsrango no na pete gu Ahyiae Ntamadan no so baabiara ne biribiara a ɛwɔ mu ne nneɛma a ɛwɔ hɔ nyinaa ne nkongua so, na fa tew ho.
10 You shall anoint the altar of burnt offering, with all its vessels, and sanctify the altar, and the altar will be most holy.
Ɔhyew afɔremuka no ne ɛho nneɛma nyinaa nso, pete ɔsra ngo no bi gu so na tew ho na ɛnyɛ kronkron.
11 You shall anoint the basin and its base, and sanctify it.
Sra hweaseammɔ no ne ne ntaease no ngo na fa tew ho.
12 “You shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and shall wash them with water.
“Fa Aaron ne ne mmabarima no bra Ahyiae Ntamadan no kwan ano na fa nsu hohoro wɔn ho.
13 You shall put on Aaron the holy garments; and you shall anoint him, and sanctify him, that he may minister to me in the priest’s office.
Na fa atade kronkron no hyɛ Aaron, na sra no ngo na ne ho ntew na ɔmmɛyɛ me sɔfo.
14 You shall bring his sons, and put tunics on them.
Fa ne mmabarima no bra na fa wɔn ntade hyehyɛ wɔn.
15 You shall anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may minister to me in the priest’s office. Their anointing shall be to them for an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.”
Sra wɔn ngo sɛnea woyɛɛ wɔn agya no, sɛnea wɔbɛsom me sɛ asɔfo. Wɔn ngosra no bɛyɛ asɔfodi wɔ wɔn awo ntoatoaso nyinaa mu.”
16 Moses did so. According to all that Yahweh commanded him, so he did.
Mose yɛɛ biribiara sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ no no.
17 In the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, the tabernacle was raised up.
Afe a ɛto so abien no mu ɔsram a edi kan no da a edi kan no, wɔkekaa Ahyiae Ntamadan no sisii anim.
18 Moses raised up the tabernacle, and laid its sockets, and set up its boards, and put in its bars, and raised up its pillars.
Mose sii Ahyiae Ntamadan no; ɔde nsisiso no sisii wɔn afa, de nnyinaso no hyehyɛɛ mu de mmeamu nnua beabea mu de mpuran sisii wɔn afa.
19 He spread the covering over the tent, and put the roof of the tabernacle above on it, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
Afei, ɔde nkuruso no kuruu mpuran no so de ne nguguso guguu so san de nguguso a edi akyi kuruu so sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ no no.
20 He took and put the covenant into the ark, and set the poles on the ark, and put the mercy seat above on the ark.
Ɔde abo a wɔakyerɛw Mmaransɛm Du no wɔ so no guu Apam Adaka no mu de nnua a wɔde bɛsoa no susoo mu. Ɔde ne nkataso a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ayɛ a ɛyɛ mpata nkataso no kataa so.
21 He brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the veil of the screen, and screened the ark of the covenant, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
Afei, ɔde Apam Adaka no besii Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu de ntwamtam no twaa mu, sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ no no.
22 He put the table in the Tent of Meeting, on the north side of the tabernacle, outside of the veil.
Afei, ɔde ɔpon no sii atifi fam wɔ ɔdan no mu wɔ ntwamtam no akyi,
23 He set the bread in order on it before Yahweh, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
de Ɔkyerɛ Brodo no too so wɔ Awurade anim sɛnea Awurade hyɛe no.
24 He put the lamp stand in the Tent of Meeting, opposite the table, on the south side of the tabernacle.
Ɔde kaneadua no sii ɔpon no nkyɛn wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no anafo fam.
25 He lit the lamps before Yahweh, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
Afei, ɔsɔɔ kanea no wɔ Awurade anim sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ no no.
26 He put the golden altar in the Tent of Meeting before the veil;
Mose de sikakɔkɔɔ afɔremuka sii ntwamtam no ho pɛɛ wɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu
27 and he burned incense of sweet spices on it, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
na ɔhyew nnuhuam wɔ so sɛnea Awurade hyɛe no.
28 He put up the screen of the door to the tabernacle.
Ɔde Ahyiae Ntamadan no ano nkataano sɛn ano.
29 He set the altar of burnt offering at the door of the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the meal offering, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
Ɔde afɔremuka a esi akyi a wɔbɔ ɔhyew afɔre wɔ so no si bɛn ɔkwan no ano, na ɔbɔɔ so ɔhyew afɔre ne aduan afɔre sɛnea Awurade hyɛe no.
30 He set the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and put water therein, with which to wash.
Ɔde hweaseammɔ sii Ahyiae Ntamadan no ne afɔremuka no ntam na wɔhyɛɛ no nsu ma, sɛnea asɔfo no benya bi ahohoro wɔn ho,
31 Moses, Aaron, and his sons washed their hands and their feet there.
na Mose ne Aaron ne Aaron mmabarima hohoroo wɔn nsa ho ne wɔn anan ase wɔ hɔ.
32 When they went into the Tent of Meeting, and when they came near to the altar, they washed, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
Bere biara a wɔbɛfa afɔremuka no ho akɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu no, wogyina hohoroo wɔn ho sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
33 He raised up the court around the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the screen of the gate of the court. So Moses finished the work.
Na Mose sii biribi twaa Ahyiae Ntamadan no ne afɔremuka no ho hyiae na wɔde nsɛnanotam sɛn ano. Ɛnna Mose wiee nʼadwuma.
34 Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and Yahweh’s glory filled the tabernacle.
Omununkum no bɛkataa Ahyiae Ntamadan no so maa Awurade anuonyam hyɛɛ no ma.
35 Moses wasn’t able to enter into the Tent of Meeting, because the cloud stayed on it, and Yahweh’s glory filled the tabernacle.
Esiane sɛ na omununkum no asi wɔ hɔ no nti, Mose antumi ankɔ mu na Awurade anuonyam hyɛɛ Ahyiae Ntamadan no ma.
36 When the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward, throughout all their journeys;
Bere biara a omununkum no bɛma ne ho so no, na Israelfo no nso di akyi.
37 but if the cloud wasn’t taken up, then they didn’t travel until the day that it was taken up.
Na sɛ egyina a, na wɔn nso agyina akosi sɛ ɛbɛma ne ho so bio.
38 For the cloud of Yahweh was on the tabernacle by day, and there was fire in the cloud by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
Awia de, omununkum no gyina Ahyiae Ntamadan no so na sɛ edu anadwo a, na ogya asɔ wɔ omununkum no mu sɛnea Israelfo no nyinaa behu. Eyi toaa so saa ara wɔ wɔn akwantu no nyinaa mu.
