< Mose 2 25 >
1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Gblɔ na Israelviwo be ame sia ame si alɔ̃ la, natsɔ nunana siawo dometɔ aɖewo vɛ nam.
Speak to the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering.
3 “Sika, klosalo, akɔbli,
And this [is] the offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver and brass,
4 avɔ si nye blɔtɔ, avɔ dzĩ, aklala, gbɔ̃fuwo,
And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' [hair].
5 agbogbalẽ si wode ama dzĩ, gbɔ̃gbalẽ, akasiati,
And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and shittim wood.

Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet incense,
7 onikskpe siwo woatsɔ aɖo kɔmewu kple akɔtaɖonu ŋu,
Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breast-plate.
8 elabena medi be Israelviwo natu nɔƒe kɔkɔe aɖe nam, afi si manɔ le wo dome.
And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.
9 “Nye nɔƒe sia anye agbadɔ. Mafia ale si nàtui kple nu siwo nàtsɔ aɖo atsyɔ̃ nɛ la wò.
According to all that I show thee [after] the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all its instruments, even so shall ye make [it].
10 “Tsɔ akasiati nàkpa aɖaka wòadidi sentimita alafa ɖeka kple ewo, wòakeke sentimita blaade-vɔ-ade, eye wòakɔ sentimita blaade-vɔ-ade.
And they shall make an ark [of] shittim wood: two cubits and a half [shall be] its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its hight.
11 Fa sika nyuitɔ ɖe eme kple egodo siaa, eye nàtsɔ sika nyuitɔ ke amli ɖe aɖaka la togawo kpe ɖo.
And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold around it.
12 Wɔ sikagagɔdɔ̃e ene siwo anɔ abe asigɛ ene, eye nàklã wo ɖe dzogoe ene siwo le ete la ŋu; sikagagɔ̃dɔ̃e eve nanɔ aɖaka la ƒe axa ɖe sia ɖe.
And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put [them] in its four corners; and two rings [shall be] in the one side of it, and two rings in the other side of it.
13 Tsɔ akasiati kpa kpo didiwo, eye nàfa sika nyuitɔ ɖe wo ŋu.
And thou shalt make staffs [of] shittim wood, and overlay them with gold.
14 Tsɔ wo ƒo ɖe asigɛ eve siwo le aɖaka la ƒe axa ɖeka dzi la me hena aɖaka la tsɔtsɔ.
And thou shalt put the staffs into the rings by the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with them.
15 Womaɖe ati siawo le sikasigɛawo me o, ke boŋ woanɔ wo me ɖaa.
The staffs shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be taken from it.
16 Ekema nàtsɔ nubabla si matsɔ na wò la ade aɖaka la me.
And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee.
17 Tsɔ sika nyuitɔ wɔ nublanuikpɔkpɔzikpui si adidi sentimita alafa ɖeka kple ewo, eye wòakeke sentimita blaadre-vɔ-ade.
And thou shalt make a mercy-seat [of] pure gold: two cubits and a half [shall be] its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth.
18 Tsɔ sika wɔ kerubi eve, eye nàklã wo ɖe nutunu la ƒe didime ƒe nuwo.
And thou shalt make two cherubim [of] gold, [of] beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy-seat.
19 Wɔ kerubi ɖeka kple amenuvevezikpui la, eye ɖeka anɔ nutunu la ƒe didime ƒe nu ɖeka.
And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: [even] of the mercy-seat shall ye make the cherubim on its two ends.
20 Kerubiawo adze ŋgɔ wo nɔewo, eye woanɔ amenuvevezikpui la gbɔ kpɔm. Woakeke woƒe aʋalãwo ɖe sikanutunu la dzi.
And the cherubim shall stretch forth [their] wings on high, covering the mercy-seat with their wings, and their faces [shall look] one to another; towards the mercy-seat shall the faces of the cherubim be.
21 Tsɔ nutunu la tu aɖaka la nu, eye nàtsɔ kpe siwo dzi woŋlɔ seawo ɖo siwo matsɔ na wò la de aɖaka la me.
And thou shalt put the mercy-seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
22 Mado go wò le afi ma, aƒo nu kpli wò le amenuvevezikpui la tame, le kerubi eve siwo le nubablaɖaka tame la dome, eye matsɔ nubablakpe siwo dzi meŋlɔ nye sededewo na Israelviwo ɖo la na wò.
And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy-seat, from between the two cherubim which [are] upon the ark of the testimony, of all [things] which I will give thee in commandment to the children of Israel.
23 “Emegbe la, nàtsɔ akasiati akpa kplɔ̃ wòadidi sentimita blaenyi-vɔ-enyi, akeke sentimita blaene-vɔ-ene, eye wòakɔ sentimita blaade-vɔ-ade.
Thou shalt also make a table [of] shittim wood: its length shall be two cubits, and its breadth a cubit, and its hight a cubit and a half.
24 Fa sika nyuitɔ ɖe edzi, eye nàfa sika ɖe eto.
And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make to it a crown of gold around it.

And thou shalt make to it a border of an hand-breadth around it, and thou shalt make a golden crown to its border around it.
26 Wɔ sikasigɛ ene na kplɔ̃ la, eye nàklã wo ɖe kplɔ̃ la ƒe axa eneawo dzi, woate ɖe afɔti eneawo ŋu.
And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that [are] on its four feet.
27 Asigɛawo nate ɖe kplɔ̃ la ƒe to lɔƒo be woatsɔ atiwo ade asigɛawo me hena kplɔ̃ la kɔkɔ.
Over against the border shall the rings be for places of the staffs to bear the table.
28 Tsɔ akasiati wɔ kplɔ̃kɔtiawo, eye nàfa sika ɖe wo ŋu.
And thou shalt make the staffs [of] shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them.
29 Wɔ sikagbawo, sikagatsiwo, nutɔgbawo, goewo kple trewo, nu siwo ŋu dɔ wowɔna le kplɔ̃a dzi,
And thou shalt make its dishes, and its spoons, and its covers, and its bowls, to cover it with: [of] pure gold shalt thou make them.
30 eye nàtsɔ Ŋkumeɖobolo tɔxɛ ada ɖe kplɔ̃ la dzi le nye ŋkume ɣe sia ɣi.
And thou shalt set upon the table show-bread before me always.
31 “Tsɔ sika nyuitɔ wɔ akaɖiti lae. Na akaɖiti blibo la nanye nu ɖeka; ele be woatu akaɖiti la ƒe afɔwo, eƒe titinati diditɔ, akaɖiawo kple seƒoƒoawo nanye nu blibo ɖeka.
And thou shalt make a candlestick [of] pure gold: [of] beaten work shall the candlestick be made: its shaft, and its branches, its bowls, its knobs, and its flowers, shall be of the same.
32 “Alɔ ade nanɔ akaɖiti la ƒe axawo dzi, etɔ̃ nanɔ akaɖiti la ƒe axawo kple eve dzi.
And six branches shall extend from the sides of it; three branches of the candlestick from the one side, and three branches of the candlestick from the other side:
33 Kplu etɔ̃ siwo wowɔ abe yevuzi ƒe seƒoƒo siwo do, eye woke ene la nanɔ alɔdze ɖeka ŋu, etɔ̃ nanɔ alɔdze bubu ŋu. Nenema ke wòanɔ na alɔdze adeawo siwo katã le akaɖiti la kɔgo ŋu.
Three bowls made like to almonds, [with] a knob and a flower in one branch; and three bowls made like almonds in the other branch, [with] a knob and a flower: so in the six branches that project from the candlestick.
34 Kplu ene siwo wowɔ abe yevuzi ƒe seƒoƒo si do, eye wòke ene la nanɔ akaɖiti la dzi.
And in the candlesticks [shall be] four bowls made like to almonds, [with] their knobs and their flowers.

And [there shall be] a knob under two branches of the same, and a knob under two branches of the same, and a knob under two branches of the same, according to the six branches that project from the candlestick.
36 Ele be woawɔ atsyɔ̃ɖonuawo kple alɔdzeawo kple titinati didi la siaa kple sika nyuitɔ woanye nu blibo ɖeka.
Their knobs and their branches shall be of the same: all of it [shall be] one beaten work [of] pure gold.
37 Le esia megbe la, wɔ akaɖi adre na akaɖiti la, eye nàna woaklẽ ɖe ŋgɔ.
And thou shalt make its seven lamps: and they shall light its lamps, that they may give light over against it.

And its tongs, and its snuff-dishes, [shall be of] pure gold.

[Of] a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with all these vessels.
40 “Kpɔ egbɔ be nu sia nu sɔ ɖe nu si mele fiawòm le toa dzi la dzi tututu.”
And look that thou make [them] after their pattern, which was shown thee on the mount.
