1 “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.
“Next, have your brother Aaron brought to you from among the Israelites, along with his sons Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar, to serve Me as priests.
2 Tumĩra Harũni mũrũ wa nyũkwa nguo nyamũre, cia kũmũnenehagia na kũmũtĩĩithagia.
Make holy garments for your brother Aaron, to give him glory and splendor.
3 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.
You are to instruct all the skilled craftsmen, whom I have filled with a spirit of wisdom, to make garments for Aaron’s consecration, so that he may serve Me as priest.
4 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.
These are the garments that they shall make: a breastpiece, an ephod, a robe, a woven tunic, a turban, and a sash. They are to make these holy garments for your brother Aaron and his sons, so that they may serve Me as priests.
5 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.
They shall use gold, along with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and fine linen.
6 “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.
They are to make the ephod of finely spun linen embroidered with gold, and with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn.
7 Nĩ wega ebodi ĩyo ĩgĩe na tũmĩkwa twĩrĩ twa kũmĩnyiitithanĩria ciande-inĩ, tũtumĩrĩirwo mĩthia-inĩ yeerĩ yayo nĩgeetha ndaamĩ ciayo cierĩ inyiitane.
It shall have two shoulder pieces attached at two of its corners, so it can be fastened.
8 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.
And the skillfully woven waistband of the ephod must be of one piece, of the same workmanship—with gold, with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and with finely spun linen.
9 “Oya tũhiga twĩrĩ twa onigithi ũkurure marĩĩtwa ma ariũ a Isiraeli igũrũ rĩatuo
Take two onyx stones and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel:
10 marũmanĩrĩire ũrĩa maaciarirwo, ũkurure marĩĩtwa matandatũ kahiga-inĩ kamwe, na matandatũ kau kangĩ.
six of their names on one stone and the remaining six on the other, in the order of their birth.
11 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,
Engrave the names of the sons of Israel on the two stones the way a gem cutter engraves a seal. Then mount the stones in gold filigree settings.
12 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.
Fasten both stones on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as memorial stones for the sons of Israel. Aaron is to bear their names on his two shoulders as a memorial before the LORD.
13 Thondeka tũkonyo tũgemu twa thahabu
Fashion gold filigree settings
14 na irengeeri igĩrĩ cia thahabu therie, ihaana ta mũkanda, nacio ũcinyiitithanie na tũkonyo tũu.
and two chains of pure gold, made of braided cord work; and attach these chains to the settings.
15 “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.
You are also to make a breastpiece of judgment with the same workmanship as the ephod. Construct it with gold, with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and with finely spun linen.
16 Gakuo kau gakorwo kaiganaine mĩena yothe ĩna inji kenda kũraiha na inji kenda kwarama, na koinanĩrwo maita meerĩ.
It must be square when folded over double, a span long and a span wide.
17 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;
And mount on it a setting of gemstones, four rows of stones: In the first row there shall be a ruby, a topaz, and an emerald;
18 mũhari wa keerĩ ũtumĩrĩre kahiga ga thumarati, na ka yakuti ĩrĩa ya rangi wa bururu, na ka arimathi;
in the second row a turquoise, a sapphire, and a diamond;
19 mũhari wa gatatũ ũtumĩrĩre kahiga ka wakiki ũrĩa wa bururu, na ka yacimu, na ka amethuthito;
in the third row a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
20 naguo mũhari wa kana ũtumĩrĩrwo kahiga ga thumarati ĩrĩa theru, na ka onigithi, na ka njathibi. Ũtũtumĩrĩre tũkonyo-inĩ tũgemu twa thahabu.
and in the fourth row a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. Mount these stones in gold filigree settings.
21 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.
The twelve stones are to correspond to the names of the sons of Israel, each engraved like a seal with the name of one of the twelve tribes.
22 “Thondekera gakuo kau ga gĩthũri irengeeri njogothe cia thahabu therie ihaana ta mũkanda.
For the breastpiece, make braided chains like cords of pure gold.
23 Gathondekere mĩrĩnga ĩĩrĩ ya thahabu, ũmĩoherere mĩthia-inĩ ĩĩrĩ ya gakuo kau ga gĩthũri.
You are also to make two gold rings and fasten them to the two corners of the breastpiece.
24 Ohania irengeeri igĩrĩ cia thahabu mĩrĩnga-inĩ hau mĩthia-inĩ ya gakuo ga gĩthũri,
Then fasten the two gold chains to the two gold rings at the corners of the breastpiece,
25 nayo mĩthia ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ya irengeeri yohithanio na tũkonyo tũrĩa twĩrĩ, ũmĩnyiitithanie na ndaamĩ cia kĩande cia ebodi mwena wa na mbere.
and fasten the other ends of the two chains to the two filigree settings, attaching them to the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front.
26 Thondeka mĩrĩnga ĩĩrĩ ya thahabu ũmĩnyiitithanie na mĩthia ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ĩĩrĩ ya gakuo ga gĩthũri mwena wa na thĩinĩ kũrigania na ebodi.
Make two more gold rings and attach them to the other two corners of the breastpiece, on the inside edge next to the ephod.
27 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.
Make two additional gold rings and attach them to the bottom of the two shoulder pieces of the ephod, on its front, near its seam just above its woven waistband.
28 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.
The rings of the breastpiece shall be tied to the rings of the ephod with a cord of blue yarn, so that the breastpiece is above the waistband of the ephod and does not swing out from the ephod.
29 “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.
Whenever Aaron enters the Holy Place, he shall bear the names of the sons of Israel over his heart on the breastpiece of judgment, as a continual reminder before the LORD.
30 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.
And place the Urim and Thummim in the breastpiece of judgment, so that they will also be over Aaron’s heart whenever he comes before the LORD. Aaron will continually carry the judgment of the sons of Israel over his heart before the LORD.
31 “Tuma nguo ndaaya ya ebodi ya taama wa bururu mũtheri,
You are to make the robe of the ephod entirely of blue cloth,
32 na ĩkorwo na harũkĩrio ya mũtwe gatagatĩ kayo. Ĩkorwo ĩtirihĩtwo mĩthia-inĩ ta kara ya ngingo gũthiũrũrũkĩria iharũkĩrio rĩu rĩa mũtwe, nĩgeetha ndĩgatarũke.
with an opening at its top in the center. Around the opening shall be a woven collar with an opening like that of a garment, so that it will not tear.
33 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.
Make pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn all the way around the lower hem, with gold bells between them,
34 Ngengere cia thahabu na makomamanga macio mathiĩ mahakanĩtio gũthiũrũrũka rũtumo rwa magũrũ-inĩ rwa nguo ĩyo ndaaya.
alternating the gold bells and pomegranates around the lower hem of the robe.
35 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.
Aaron must wear the robe whenever he ministers, and its sound will be heard when he enters or exits the sanctuary before the LORD, so that he will not die.
36 “Thondeka gatanji ga thahabu therie, na ũgakurure ta ũrĩa mũhũũri ũkururagwo, ũkurure ciugo ici: MŨTHERU MWAMŨRĨRE JEHOVA.
You are to make a plate of pure gold and engrave on it as on a seal: HOLY TO THE LORD.
37 Koherere rũrigi rwa rangi wa bururu nĩguo ũkanyiitithanie na kĩremba, gakorwo karĩ mwena wa mbere wa kĩremba.
Fasten to it a blue cord to mount it on the turban; it shall be on the front of the turban.
38 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.
And it will be worn on Aaron’s forehead, so that he may bear the iniquity of the holy things that the sons of Israel consecrate with regard to all their holy gifts. It shall always be on his forehead, so that they may be acceptable before the LORD.
39 “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.
You are to weave the tunic with fine linen, make the turban of fine linen, and fashion an embroidered sash.
40 Tumĩra ariũ a Harũni kanjũ, na mĩcibi, na tũmĩcibi twa kĩongo, cia gũtũma manenehagio na maheagwo gĩtĩĩo.
Make tunics, sashes, and headbands for Aaron’s sons, to give them glory and splendor.
41 Warĩkia kũhumba mũrũ wa nyũkwa na ariũ ake nguo icio-rĩ, ũmaitĩrĩrie maguta na ũmaamũre. Ũmaamũre nĩgeetha mandungatagĩre marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai.
After you put these garments on your brother Aaron and his sons, anoint them, ordain them, and consecrate them so that they may serve Me as priests.
42 “Matumithĩrie thuruarĩ cia thĩinĩ cia gatani, cia kũhumbĩra njaga ya mĩĩrĩ yao kuuma njohero nginya ciero-inĩ.
Make linen undergarments to cover their bare flesh, extending from waist to thigh.
43 Harũni na ariũ ake no nginya maciĩhumbage rĩrĩa rĩothe marĩtoonyaga Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo kana magĩthengerera kĩgongona marutĩre wĩra Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru nĩgeetha matikahĩtie, nao makue. “Ũyũ nĩũtuĩke watho wa kũrũmagĩrĩrwo tene na tene nĩ Harũni na njiaro ciake.
Aaron and his sons must wear them whenever they enter the Tent of Meeting or approach the altar to minister in the Holy Place, so that they will not incur guilt and die. This is to be a permanent statute for Aaron and his descendants.
