Exodus 28
1 “Bring Aaron your brother, and his sons with him, near to you from amongst the children of Israel, that he may minister to me in the priest’s office: Aaron, with Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar, Aaron’s sons.
“Tũmanĩra Harũni mũrũ wa nyũkwa oke harĩwe kuuma gatagatĩ ka andũ a Isiraeli, hamwe na ariũ ake Nadabu na Abihu, na Eleazaru na Ithamaru, nĩgeetha mandungatagĩre marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai.
2 You shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother, for glory and for beauty.
Tumĩra Harũni mũrũ wa nyũkwa nguo nyamũre, cia kũmũnenehagia na kũmũtĩĩithagia.
3 You shall speak to all who are wise-hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they make Aaron’s garments to sanctify him, that he may minister to me in the priest’s office.
Arĩria mabundi marĩa marĩ na ũũgĩ wa gũtuma, nguo arĩa niĩ heete ũũgĩ maũndũ-inĩ ta macio, nĩguo matumĩre Harũni nguo cia kwĩhumba akĩamũrwo, nĩguo andungatagĩre arĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
4 These are the garments which they shall make: a breastplate, an ephod, a robe, a fitted tunic, a turban, and a sash. They shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother and his sons, that he may minister to me in the priest’s office.
Nacio ici nĩcio nguo iria megũtuma: gakuo ga gĩthũri, na ebodi, na nguo ndaaya, na kanjũ ya taama ngʼemie wega, na kĩremba, na mũcibi. Nguo ici nyamũre megũcitumĩra Harũni mũrũ wa nyũkwa na ariũ ake nĩguo mandungatagĩre marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai.
5 They shall use the gold, and the blue, and the purple, and the scarlet, and the fine linen.
Nĩ mahũthĩre thahabu, na ndigi cia rangi wa bururu, na cia rangi wa ndathi, na cia rangi mũtune ta gakarakũ, hamwe na gatani ĩrĩa njega.
6 “They shall make the ephod of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the skilful workman.
“Tuma ebodi ya ndigi cia rangi wa thahabu na ndigi cia rangi wa bururu, na cia rangi wa ndathi na cia rangi mũtune ta gakarakũ na ya gatani ĩrĩa yogothetwo wega, wĩra wa mũbundi mũũgĩ.
7 It shall have two shoulder straps joined to the two ends of it, that it may be joined together.
Nĩ wega ebodi ĩyo ĩgĩe na tũmĩkwa twĩrĩ twa kũmĩnyiitithanĩria ciande-inĩ, tũtumĩrĩirwo mĩthia-inĩ yeerĩ yayo nĩgeetha ndaamĩ ciayo cierĩ inyiitane.
8 The skilfully woven band, which is on it, shall be like its work and of the same piece; of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen.
Naguo mũcibi wayo wa njohero ũrĩa mũtume wega ũkorwo ũhaana tayo na ũrĩ wa gĩcunjĩ kĩmwe na ebodi ĩyo na ũthondeketwo na ndigi cia rangi wa thahabu, na ndigi cia rangi wa bururu, na cia rangi wa ndathi, na cia rangi mũtune ta gakarakũ, hamwe na gatani njogothe wega.
9 You shall take two onyx stones, and engrave on them the names of the children of Israel.
“Oya tũhiga twĩrĩ twa onigithi ũkurure marĩĩtwa ma ariũ a Isiraeli igũrũ rĩatuo
10 Six of their names on the one stone, and the names of the six that remain on the other stone, in the order of their birth.

11 With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, you shall engrave the two stones, according to the names of the children of Israel. You shall make them to be enclosed in settings of gold.
Kurura marĩĩtwa ma ariũ a Isiraeli tũhiga-inĩ tũu twĩrĩ ta ũrĩa mũrengi wa tũhiga twa goro akururaga kahengere ga gwĩkĩra mũhũũri. Ũcooke ũtũtumĩrĩre tũkonyo-inĩ twa thahabu,
12 You shall put the two stones on the shoulder straps of the ephod, to be stones of memorial for the children of Israel. Aaron shall bear their names before the LORD on his two shoulders for a memorial.
na ũtuoherere ndaamĩ-inĩ cia kĩande cia ebodi, tũrĩ tũhiga twa kĩririkania kĩa ariũ a Isiraeli. Harũni nĩarĩkuuaga marĩĩtwa macio ciande-inĩ ciake matuĩke kĩririkania mbere ya Jehova.
13 You shall make settings of gold,
Thondeka tũkonyo tũgemu twa thahabu
14 and two chains of pure gold; you shall make them like cords of braided work. You shall put the braided chains on the settings.

15 “You shall make a breastplate of judgement, the work of the skilful workman; like the work of the ephod you shall make it; of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, you shall make it.
“Thondekithia gakuo ga gĩthũri ga gwĩkagĩrwo ituĩro-inĩ rĩa ciira, nako gatumwo nĩ mũtumi mũũgĩ. Gathondeke ta ebodi: karĩ ka ndigi cia rangi wa thahabu na ka ndigi cia rangi wa bururu, na cia rangi wa ndathi, na cia rangi mũtune ta gakarakũ na gatani ĩrĩa yogothetwo wega.
16 It shall be square and folded double; a span shall be its length, and a span its width.
Gakuo kau gakorwo kaiganaine mĩena yothe ĩna inji kenda kũraiha na inji kenda kwarama, na koinanĩrwo maita meerĩ.
17 You shall set in it settings of stones, four rows of stones: a row of ruby, topaz, and beryl shall be the first row;
Ũcooke ũgatumĩrĩre mĩhari ĩna ya tũhiga twa goro. Mũhari wa mbere hakorwo kahiga ka wakiki ũrĩa mũtune, na ka yakuti ĩrĩa ĩhaana ngoikoni, na ka baregethu;

19 and the third row a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;

21 The stones shall be according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names; like the engravings of a signet, everyone according to his name, they shall be for the twelve tribes.
Hagĩkorwo harĩ na tũhiga ikũmi na twĩrĩ, o kamwe karũgamĩrĩre marĩĩtwa ma ariũ a Isiraeli, o kamwe gakururwo rĩĩtwa rĩa mũhĩrĩga ũmwe wa ĩrĩa ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ ya Isiraeli, o ta ũrĩa kahengere ka mũhũũri gakururagwo.
22 You shall make on the breastplate chains like cords, of braided work of pure gold.
“Thondekera gakuo kau ga gĩthũri irengeeri njogothe cia thahabu therie ihaana ta mũkanda.
23 You shall make on the breastplate two rings of gold, and shall put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
Gathondekere mĩrĩnga ĩĩrĩ ya thahabu, ũmĩoherere mĩthia-inĩ ĩĩrĩ ya gakuo kau ga gĩthũri.
24 You shall put the two braided chains of gold in the two rings at the ends of the breastplate.
Ohania irengeeri igĩrĩ cia thahabu mĩrĩnga-inĩ hau mĩthia-inĩ ya gakuo ga gĩthũri,
25 The other two ends of the two braided chains you shall put on the two settings, and put them on the shoulder straps of the ephod in its forepart.
nayo mĩthia ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ya irengeeri yohithanio na tũkonyo tũrĩa twĩrĩ, ũmĩnyiitithanie na ndaamĩ cia kĩande cia ebodi mwena wa na mbere.
26 You shall make two rings of gold, and you shall put them on the two ends of the breastplate, on its edge, which is towards the side of the ephod inward.
Thondeka mĩrĩnga ĩĩrĩ ya thahabu ũmĩnyiitithanie na mĩthia ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ĩĩrĩ ya gakuo ga gĩthũri mwena wa na thĩinĩ kũrigania na ebodi.
27 You shall make two rings of gold, and shall put them on the two shoulder straps of the ephod underneath, in its forepart, close by its coupling, above the skilfully woven band of the ephod.
Thondeka mĩrĩnga ĩngĩ ĩĩrĩ ya thahabu na ũmĩnyiitithanie magũrũ-inĩ ma ndaamĩ cia kĩande mwena-inĩ wa mbere wa ebodi, hakuhĩ na rũtumo, igũrũ hanini wa mũcibi wa njohero ya ebodi.
28 They shall bind the breastplate by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be on the skilfully woven band of the ephod, and that the breastplate may not swing out from the ephod.
Mĩrĩnga ya gakuo ga gĩthũri ĩrĩohithanagio na mĩrĩnga ya ebodi na rũrigi rwa bururu, na inyiitithanio na mũcibi wa njohero, nĩgeetha gakuo ga gĩthũri gatikarekanie na ebodi.
29 Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgement on his heart, when he goes in to the holy place, for a memorial before the LORD continually.
“Rĩrĩa rĩothe Harũni arĩĩtoonyaga Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru, arĩkuuaga marĩĩtwa ma ariũ a Isiraeli marĩ gĩthũri-inĩ gĩake gakuo-inĩ ga gĩthũri ga ituĩro rĩa ciira, arĩ kĩririkania gĩa gũtũũra mbere ya Jehova.
30 You shall put in the breastplate of judgement the Urim and the Thummim; and they shall be on Aaron’s heart, when he goes in before the LORD. Aaron shall bear the judgement of the children of Israel on his heart before the LORD continually.
Ningĩ wĩkĩre Urimu na Thumimu thĩinĩ wa gakuo kau ga gĩthũri, nĩgeetha ciikarage gĩthũri-inĩ kĩa Harũni rĩrĩa rĩothe arĩĩtoonyaga agathiĩ mbere ya Jehova. Ũguo nĩguo Harũni arĩkuuaga ũhoti wa gũtuagĩra andũ a Isiraeli ciira gĩthũri-inĩ gĩake arĩ mbere ya Jehova.
31 “You shall make the robe of the ephod all of blue.
“Tuma nguo ndaaya ya ebodi ya taama wa bururu mũtheri,
32 It shall have a hole for the head in the middle of it. It shall have a binding of woven work around its hole, as it were the hole of a coat of mail, that it not be torn.
na ĩkorwo na harũkĩrio ya mũtwe gatagatĩ kayo. Ĩkorwo ĩtirihĩtwo mĩthia-inĩ ta kara ya ngingo gũthiũrũrũkĩria iharũkĩrio rĩu rĩa mũtwe, nĩgeetha ndĩgatarũke.
33 On its hem you shall make pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, all around its hem; with bells of gold between and around them:
Thondeka tũcunjuura tũtariĩ ta matunda ma makomamanga twa ndigi cia rangi wa bururu, na rangi wa ndathi, na rangi mũtune ta gakarakũ gũthiũrũrũka rũtumo rwa magũrũ-inĩ rwa nguo ĩyo, tũhakanĩtio na ngengere cia thahabu.
34 a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, around the hem of the robe.
Ngengere cia thahabu na makomamanga macio mathiĩ mahakanĩtio gũthiũrũrũka rũtumo rwa magũrũ-inĩ rwa nguo ĩyo ndaaya.
35 It shall be on Aaron to minister: and its sound shall be heard when he goes in to the holy place before the LORD, and when he comes out, that he not die.
Harũni no nginya ehumbage nguo ĩyo hĩndĩ ciothe rĩrĩa egũtungata. Ngengere nĩirĩiguagwo ikĩgamba rĩrĩa egũtoonya Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru o hau mbere ya Jehova na rĩrĩa ekuuma ho, nĩgeetha ndagakue.
36 “You shall make a plate of pure gold, and engrave on it, like the engravings of a signet, ‘HOLY TO THE LORD.’
“Thondeka gatanji ga thahabu therie, na ũgakurure ta ũrĩa mũhũũri ũkururagwo, ũkurure ciugo ici: MŨTHERU MWAMŨRĨRE JEHOVA.
37 You shall put it on a lace of blue, and it shall be on the sash. It shall be on the front of the sash.
Koherere rũrigi rwa rangi wa bururu nĩguo ũkanyiitithanie na kĩremba, gakorwo karĩ mwena wa mbere wa kĩremba.
38 It shall be on Aaron’s forehead, and Aaron shall bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children of Israel shall make holy in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always on his forehead, that they may be accepted before the LORD.
Karĩkoragwo karĩ thiithi-inĩ wa Harũni, nake agakuuaga mahĩtia makoniĩ iheo iria theru, iria andũ a Isiraeli mangĩkorwo mamũrĩire Jehova, o na irĩ cia mũthemba o na ũrĩkũ. Gatanji kau gakoragwo karĩ thiithi-inĩ wa Harũni hĩndĩ ciothe nĩgeetha magetĩkĩrĩkaga nĩ Jehova.
39 You shall weave the tunic with fine linen. You shall make a turban of fine linen. You shall make a sash, the work of the embroiderer.
“Kanjũ nĩĩtumwo ĩrĩ ya gatani ĩrĩa njega mũno, o na ũtume kĩremba na gatani ĩrĩa njega mũno. Mũcibi ũtumwo nĩ mũgemia ũrĩa mũũgĩ na wĩra ũcio.
40 “You shall make tunics for Aaron’s sons. You shall make sashes for them. You shall make headbands for them, for glory and for beauty.
Tumĩra ariũ a Harũni kanjũ, na mĩcibi, na tũmĩcibi twa kĩongo, cia gũtũma manenehagio na maheagwo gĩtĩĩo.
41 You shall put them on Aaron your brother, and on his sons with him, and shall anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, that they may minister to me in the priest’s office.
Warĩkia kũhumba mũrũ wa nyũkwa na ariũ ake nguo icio-rĩ, ũmaitĩrĩrie maguta na ũmaamũre. Ũmaamũre nĩgeetha mandungatagĩre marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai.

“Matumithĩrie thuruarĩ cia thĩinĩ cia gatani, cia kũhumbĩra njaga ya mĩĩrĩ yao kuuma njohero nginya ciero-inĩ.
43 They shall be on Aaron and on his sons, when they go in to the Tent of Meeting, or when they come near to the altar to minister in the holy place, that they don’t bear iniquity, and die. This shall be a statute forever to him and to his offspring after him.
