'And thou, bring thou near unto thee Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him, from the midst of the sons of Israel, for his being priest to Me, [even] Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, sons of Aaron;
2 Tɔ awu kɔkɔewo na nɔviwò ŋutsu Aron be woade kɔkɔ kple bubu eŋu.
and thou hast made holy garments for Aaron thy brother, for honour and for beauty;

and thou — thou dost speak unto all the wise of heart, whom I have filled [with] a spirit of wisdom, and they have made the garments of Aaron to sanctify him for his being priest to Me.

'And these [are] the garments which they make: a breastplate, and an ephod, and an upper robe, and an embroidered coat, a mitre, and a girdle; yea, they have made holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and for his sons, for his being priest to Me.
5 “Na woatsɔ sika, aɖabɛka blɔtɔ, dzĩtɔ kple hɛ̃tɔ kple ɖetika ɣitɔ alɔ̃ awu siawoe.
'And they take the gold, and the blue, and the purple, and the scarlet, and the linen,
6 “Aɖaŋuvɔlɔ̃la xɔŋkɔwo natsɔ sika, aɖabɛka blɔtɔ, dzĩtɔ kple hẽtɔ kple kadada nyuitɔ alɔ̃ kɔmewu lae.
and have made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen, work of a designer;
7 Woatɔe awu evee: ŋgɔgbetɔ kple megbetɔ, eye woakpe wo ɖe abɔta.
it hath two shoulders joining at its two ends, and it is joined.
8 Woatsɔ avɔ ma tɔgbi ke, aɖabɛka blɔtɔ kple dzĩtɔ kple hẽtɔ kple kadada nyuitɔ ƒe avɔ awɔ alidziblanu la hãe.
'And the girdle of his ephod which [is] on him, according to its work, is of the same, of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen.
9 Emegbe tsɔ onikskpe eve, eye nàŋlɔ Israelviwo ƒe towo ƒe ŋkɔwo ɖe wo dzi.
'And thou hast taken the two shoham stones, and hast opened on them the names of the sons of Israel;

the work of an engraver in stone, openings of a signet, thou dost open the two stones by the names of the sons of Israel; turned round, embroidered [with] gold, thou dost make them.

'And thou hast set the two stones on the shoulders of the ephod — stones of memorial to the sons of Israel — and Aaron hath borne their names before Jehovah, on his two shoulders, for a memorial.
13 Na woatsɔ sika nyuitɔ awɔ sikakawo
'And thou hast made embroidered things of gold,

and two chains of pure gold, wreathed work thou dost make them, work of thick bands, and thou hast put the thick chains on the embroidered things.

'And thou hast made a breastplate of judgment, work of a designer; according to the work of the ephod thou dost make it; of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen thou dost make it;
16 Wɔe ɖe dzogoe ene me, eƒe didime nanye sentimita blaeve-vɔ-eve, eye eƒe kekeme hã nanɔ nenema. Emegbe woaŋee ɖe eve.

and the stones are according to the names of the sons of Israel, twelve, according to their names, openings of a signet, each by his name are they for the twelve tribes.
22 Tsɔ ka si wotsɔ sika nyuitɔ gbie la ɖo akɔtawu la ŋu.
'And thou hast made on the breastplate wreathed chains, work of thick bands, of pure gold;
23 Wɔ sikagagodo eve nɛ, eye nàtsɔ wo asa ɖe akɔtaɖonu la ƒe dzogoe eve dzi.
and thou hast made on the breastplate two rings of gold, and hast put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate;
24 Tsɔ sikakɔsɔkɔsɔ eve sa ɖe gagodo siwo le akɔtaɖonu la ƒe dzogoe eveawo ŋu la ŋu.
and thou hast put the two thick bands of gold on the two rings at the ends of the breastplate;
25 Na woatɔ sikakɔsɔkɔsɔawo ƒe nu eveliawo ɖe onikskpe eveawo ŋu le akɔtawu la ƒe ŋgɔgbe.
and the two ends of the two thick bands thou dost put on the two embroidered things, and thou hast put [them] on the shoulders of the ephod over-against its face.
26 Emegbe la, gawɔ sikasigɛ bubu eve, eye nàtsɔ wo aku akɔtawu la te le eme gome.
'And thou hast made two rings of gold, and hast set them on the two ends of the breastplate, on its border, which [is] over-against the ephod within;
27 Gawɔ sikasigɛ bubu eve na dziwui ʋlaya la te le eŋgɔ, le alidziblanu la ŋu.
and thou hast made two rings of gold, and hast put them on the two shoulders of the ephod, beneath, over-against its front, over-against its joining, above the girdle of the ephod,
28 Azɔ la, tɔ ka blɔtɔwo ɖe akɔtawu la te, eye nàtsɔ kawo atsi ɖe sikasigɛ siwo le dziwui ʋlaya la te la ŋu. Esia ana be akɔtawu la nalé ɖe dziwui la ŋu.
and they bind the breastplate by its rings unto the rings of the ephod with a ribbon of blue, to be above the girdle of the ephod, and the breastplate is not loosed from the ephod.
29 Ale Aron atsɔ Israelviwo ƒe towo ƒe ŋkɔ siwo le akɔtawu la dzi aɖo eƒe dzi gbɔ abe Mawu ƒe nyametsonu ene, ne eyi Teƒe Kɔkɔe la. Nu sia anɔ ŋku ɖom Israelviwo dzi na Yehowa edziedzi.”
'And Aaron hath borne the names of the sons of Israel in the breastplate of judgment, on his heart, in his going in unto the sanctuary, for a memorial before Jehovah continually.
30 Tsɔ Urim kple Tumim siwo nye kpe siwo wotsɔna biaa nu Mawu la de akɔtawu la ƒe kotoku me be woanɔ Aron ƒe dzi dzi ne edo ɖe Yehowa ŋkume. Ale Aron atsɔ Israelviwo ƒe nyametsonu la ɖe eƒe dzi dzi ne edo ɖe Yehowa ŋkume.
'And thou hast put unto the breastplate of judgment the Lights and the Perfections, and they have been on the heart of Aaron, in his going in before Jehovah, and Aaron hath borne the judgment of the sons of Israel on his heart before Jehovah continually.
31 “Tsɔ avɔ blɔtɔ tɔ awu ʋlaya si le kɔmewu la te,
'And thou hast made the upper robe of the ephod completely of blue,
32 eye woaɖe teƒe si Aron ƒe ta nato la ɖi. Woatɔ avɔ aƒo xlã teƒe sia, abe ale si wowɔna na akpoxɔnuwo ene, ale be mavuvu o.
and the opening for its head hath been in its midst, a border is to its opening round about, work of a weaver, as the opening of a habergeon there is to it; it is not rent.
33 Woatsɔ aɖabɛka blɔtɔ kple dzĩtɔ kple ka dzĩ alɔ̃ yevuboɖawo ɖe awu ʋlaya la to le awu la te eye sikanyawowoewo nanɔ yevuboɖawo dome.
'And thou hast made on its hem pomegranates of blue, and purple, and scarlet, on its hem round about, and bells of gold in their midst round about;
34 Yevuboɖawo kple sikanyawowoeawo naɖɔli wo nɔewo ale be sikanyawowoe ɖeka nanɔ yevuboɖa ɖeka yome.
a bell of gold and a pomegranate, a bell of gold and a pomegranate [are] on the hems of the upper robe round about.
35 Na Aron nado dziwui ʋlaya la ɣe sia ɣi si wòayi be yeawɔ subɔsubɔdɔ na Yehowa, eye sikanyawowoeawo nanɔ ɖiɖim kliŋkliŋkliŋ le Yehowa ŋkume le Kɔkɔeƒe la kple ne edzo le eŋkume ale be maku o.
'And it hath been on Aaron to minister in, and its sound hath been heard in his coming in unto the sanctuary before Jehovah, and in his going out, and he doth not die.
36 “Hekpe ɖe esia ŋu la, tsɔ sika nyuitɔ wɔ ganuvi kɔkɔe si anɔ tablanu la ƒe ŋgonu, eye nàŋlɔ nu ɖe edzi be, wokɔ eŋuti na Yehowa, abe ale si nàŋlɔ nu ɖe nutrenu la dzi ene.
'And thou hast made a flower of pure gold, and hast opened on it — openings of a signet — 'Holy to Jehovah;'
37 Woatsɔ ka blɔtɔ atsi sikanu sia ɖe tablanu la ƒe ŋgonu.
and thou hast put it on a blue ribbon, and it hath been on the mitre — over-against the front of the mitre it is;
38 Ale wòanɔ Aron ƒe ŋgonu, eye Aron atsɔ vodada siwo anɔ Israelviwo ƒe nunanawo ŋu la aƒu akɔ. Ele be wòakplae ɣe sia ɣi si wòado ɖe Yehowa ŋkume ale be, Mawu nakpɔ ŋudzedze le nunanawo ŋu, eye wòatsɔ nu vɔ̃wo ake.
and it hath been on the forehead of Aaron, and Aaron hath borne the iniquity of the holy things which the sons of Israel do hallow, even all their holy gifts; and it hath been on his forehead continually for a pleasing thing for them before Jehovah.
39 “Na woalɔ̃ Aron ƒe dziwui ʋlaya la kple ɖeti ɣi, eye woana wòanɔ ŋɔŋɔe. Woatsɔ avɔ ma ke alɔ̃ tablanu la hã, eye woalɔ̃ nu ɖe alidziblanu la hã me.
'And thou hast embroidered the coat of linen, and hast made a mitre of linen, and a girdle thou dost make — work of an embroiderer.
40 “Wɔ awu ʋlayawo, alidziblanuwo kple tablanuwo na Aron ƒe viŋutsuwo be woade bubu wo ŋu.
'And for the sons of Aaron thou dost make coats, and thou hast made for them girdles, yea, bonnets thou dost make for them, for honour and for beauty;
41 Do awu siawo na Aron ƒe viŋutsuawo. Si ami ɖe ta na wo, eye nàto esia me akɔ wo ŋu, aɖo wo nunɔlawo be woasubɔm.
and thou hast clothed Aaron thy brother with them, and his sons with him, and hast anointed them, and hast consecrated their hand, and hast sanctified them, and they have been priests to Me.
42 Tsɔ ɖeti ɣi lɔ̃ avɔ si woatsɔ atɔ atakpui na wo woado ɖe awuawo te. Atakpuiawo natso alime va se ɖe klonu.
'And make thou for them linen trousers to cover the naked flesh: they are from the loins even unto the thighs;
43 Ele be Aron kple via ŋutsuwo nado awu siawo ɣe sia ɣi si woayi agbadɔ la me alo woayi vɔsamlekpui la gbɔ le Kɔkɔeƒe la. Ne womewɔ nu siawo o la, woaɖi fɔ, eye woaku. Esia nye se matrɔmatrɔ na Aron kple via ŋutsuwo.”
and they have been on Aaron and on his sons, in their going in unto the tent of meeting, or in their drawing nigh unto the altar to minister in the sanctuary, and they do not bear iniquity nor have they died; a statute age-during to him, and to his seed after him.
