1 “Thondeka kĩgongona kĩa mbaũ cia mũgaa gĩa gũcinagĩra ũbumba.
And thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon; of acacia-wood shalt thou make it.
2 Nĩgĩkorwo kĩiganaine mĩena yothe mũkono ũmwe kũraiha na mũkono ũmwe kwarama na mĩkono ĩĩrĩ kũraiha na igũrũ, hĩa ciakĩo ituĩke kĩndũ o ro kĩmwe na kĩgongona.
A cubit shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof; foursquare shall it be; and two cubits shall be the height thereof; the horns thereof shall be of one piece with it.
3 Kĩgemie igũrũ, o na mĩena yothe, o na hĩa ciakĩo, na thahabu therie, na ũgĩtirihe na mũcibi wa thahabu ũgĩthiũrũrũkĩrie.
And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, the top thereof, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns thereof; and thou shalt make unto it a crown of gold round about.
4 Thondekera kĩgongona kĩu mĩrĩnga ĩĩrĩ, ũmĩoherere thĩ wa mũcibi ũcio, ĩĩrĩ mwena ũmwe, na ĩĩrĩ mwena ũrĩa ũngĩ ĩnyiitagĩrĩre mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩraaya ĩtũmagĩrwo gũgĩkuua.
And two golden rings shalt thou make for it under the crown thereof, upon the two ribs thereof, upon the two sides of it shalt thou make them; and they shall be for places for staves wherewith to bear it.
5 Thondeka mĩtĩ mĩraaya ya mbaũ cia mũgaa, na ũmĩgemie na thahabu.
And thou shalt make the staves of acacia-wood, and overlay them with gold.
6 Iga kĩgongona kĩu mbere ya gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio kĩrĩa kĩrĩ mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira, mbere ya gĩtĩ gĩa tha kĩrĩa kĩrĩ igũrũ rĩa ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira, harĩa ngaacemania nawe.
And thou shalt put it before the veil that is by the ark of the testimony, before the ark-cover that is over the testimony, where I will meet with thee.
7 “Harũni no nginya acinĩre ũbumba mũnungi wega hau igũrũ rĩa kĩgongona o rũciinĩ rĩrĩa egũthondeka matawa.
And Aaron shall burn thereon incense of sweet spices; every morning, when he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn it.
8 No nginya acine ũbumba rĩngĩ agĩakia matawa hwaĩ-inĩ kũrĩ mairia, nĩgeetha ũbumba ũikarage ũgĩcinagwo mahinda mothe mbere ya Jehova, njiarwa na njiarwa iria igooka.
And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at dusk, he shall burn it, a perpetual incense before the LORD throughout your generations.
9 Ndũkanacinĩre ũbumba wa mũthemba ũngĩ kĩgongona-inĩ gĩkĩ kana ũrutĩre ho iruta rĩa njino, kana rĩa mũtu, na ndũkanaitĩrĩrie iruta rĩa kũnyuuo igũrũ rĩakĩo.
Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt-offering, nor meal-offering; and ye shall pour no drink-offering thereon.
10 Harũni nĩarutage horohio hĩa-inĩ cia kĩgongona kĩu o mwaka riita rĩmwe. Horohio ĩno ya o mwaka no nginya ĩrutagwo na thakame ya iruta rĩa kũhoroheria mehia, nginya njiarwa iria igooka. Horohio ĩyo nĩ igongona itheru mũno harĩ Jehova.”
And Aaron shall make atonement upon the horns of it once in the year; with the blood of the sin-offering of atonement once in the year shall he make atonement for it throughout your generations; it is most holy unto the LORD.'
11 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
12 “Rĩrĩa ũgũtara andũ a Isiraeli-rĩ, o mũndũ no nginya arutagĩre Jehova kĩndũ gĩa gũkũũra muoyo wake rĩrĩa egũtarwo. Na gũtirĩ mũthiro ũkaamakora ũkĩmatara.
'When thou takest the sum of the children of Israel, according to their number, then shall they give every man a ransom for his soul unto the LORD, when thou numberest them; that there be no plague among them, when thou numberest them.
13 Mũndũ o wothe ũrĩkĩraga agathiĩ mwena wa andũ arĩa marĩkĩtie gũtarwo, nĩarĩrutaga nuthu ya cekeri kũringana na ũrĩa cekeri ya harĩa haamũre ĩtariĩ ĩrĩa ĩrĩ na ũritũ wa geera mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ. Nuthu ĩyo ya cekeri nĩ iruta kũrĩ Jehova.
This they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary — the shekel is twenty gerahs — half a shekel for an offering to the LORD.
14 Arĩa othe marĩkĩraga magathiĩ mwena wa arĩa marĩkĩtie gũtarwo, marĩ na ũkũrũ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na makĩria, no nginya maheage Jehova iruta rĩu.
Every one that passeth among them that are numbered, from twenty years old and upward, shall give the offering of the LORD.
15 Arĩa atongu matirĩheanaga makĩria ya nuthu ya cekeri, nao arĩa athĩĩni matirĩheanaga kĩndũ kĩnini gũkĩra nuthu ya cekeri hĩndĩ ya kũrutĩra Jehova horohio ya mĩoyo yao.
The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less, than the half shekel, when they give the offering of the LORD, to make atonement for your souls.
16 Amũkĩra mbeeca cia horohio kuuma kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli nawe ũcihũthĩre ũtungata-inĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo. Ũguo ũgaatuĩka kĩririkano kĩa andũ a Isiraeli mbere ya Jehova makĩrutĩra mĩoyo yao horohio.”
And thou shalt take the atonement money from the children of Israel, and shalt appoint it for the service of the tent of meeting, that it may be a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD, to make atonement for your souls.'
17 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
18 “Thondeka kĩraĩ gĩa gwĩthambagĩra gĩa gĩcango, kĩrĩ na kĩgũrũ gĩakĩo gĩa gĩcango. Ũkĩige gatagatĩ ka Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo na kĩgongona, na ũgĩĩkĩre maaĩ.
'Thou shalt also make a laver of brass, and the base thereof of brass, whereat to wash; and thou shalt put it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and thou shalt put water therein.
19 Harũni na ariũ ake marĩĩthambaga moko mao na nyarĩrĩ na maaĩ macio.
And Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet thereat;
20 Rĩrĩa rĩothe marĩtoonyaga Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, marĩĩthambaga na maaĩ nĩgeetha matigakue. O na ningĩ rĩrĩa mathengerera kĩgongona nĩguo marutĩre Jehova iruta rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki,
when they go into the tent of meeting, they shall wash with water, that they die not; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to cause an offering made by fire to smoke unto the LORD;
21 marĩĩthambaga moko na nyarĩrĩ nĩgeetha matigakue. Ũndũ ũcio ũgaatuĩka watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo tene na tene nĩ Harũni na njiaro ciake, na njiarwa ciao ciothe iria igooka.”
so they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they die not; and it shall be a statute for ever to them, even to him and to his seed throughout their generations.'
22 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
Moreover the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
23 “Oya mahuti maya manungi wega: cekeri 500 cia manemane ĩrĩa ndwekie, nuthu yamo (nacio icio nĩ cekeri 250) cia ndarathini nungi wega, na cekeri 250 cia karamathi nungi wega,
'Take thou also unto thee the chief spices, of flowing myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty, and of sweet calamus two hundred and fifty,
24 cekeri 500 cia mwĩnũ, ciothe kũringana na cekeri ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre, na hini ya maguta ma mĩtamaiyũ.
and of cassia five hundred, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of olive oil a hin.
25 Indo ici ũcithondeke ituĩke maguta matheru ma gũitanĩrĩrio matukanĩtio makanunga wega marutĩirwo wĩra nĩ mũthondeki mũũgĩ wa maguta. Macio matuĩke maguta matheru ma gũitanagĩrĩrio.
And thou shalt make it a holy anointing oil, a perfume compounded after the art of the perfumer; it shall be a holy anointing oil.
26 Ningĩ ũhũthĩre maguta macio gũitĩrĩria Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, na ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira,
And thou shalt anoint therewith the tent of meeting, and the ark of the testimony,
27 na metha na indo ciayo ciothe, na mũtĩ wa kũigĩrĩrwo matawa na indo ciaguo, na kĩgongona gĩa gũcinĩra ũbumba, na
and the table and all the vessels thereof, and the candlestick and the vessels thereof, and the altar of incense,
28 kĩgongona kĩa iruta rĩa njino na indo ciakĩo ciothe, na kĩraĩ na kĩgũrũ gĩakĩo.
and the altar of burnt-offering with all the vessels thereof, and the laver and the base thereof.
29 Nĩũgaciamũra nĩgeetha ituĩke theru mũno makĩria, nakĩo kĩrĩa gĩothe gĩgacihutia nĩgĩgatuĩka gĩtheru.
And thou shalt sanctify them, that they may be most holy; whatsoever toucheth them shall be holy.
30 “Itĩrĩria Harũni na ariũ ake maguta ũmaamũre nĩgeetha mandungatagĩre marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai.
And thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and sanctify them, that they may minister unto Me in the priest's office.
31 Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ, ‘Maya nĩmo maguta makwa marĩa matheru ma gũitanagĩrĩrio ma njiarwa iria igooka.
And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying: This shall be a holy anointing oil unto Me throughout your generations.
32 Ndũkanamaitĩrĩrie mĩĩrĩ ya arũme, na ndũkanathondeke maguta mangĩ na mũthondekere ũcio. Nĩ matheru na nĩ wega ũmatuage atĩ nĩ matheru.
Upon the flesh of man shall it not be poured, neither shall ye make any like it, according to the composition thereof; it is holy, and it shall be holy unto you.
33 Mũndũ wothe ũrĩthondekaga maguta manungi wega mahaana ta maya, na mũndũ o wothe ũngĩmaitĩrĩria mũndũ ũtarĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩakaingatwo kuuma kũrĩ andũ ao.’”
Whosoever compoundeth any like it, or whosoever putteth any of it upon a stranger, he shall be cut off from his people.'
34 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Oya mahuti manungi wega marĩa metagwo thitakiti, na onuka na garibane, hamwe na ũbani ũrĩa mwega mũno, mothe mathimĩtwo maiganaine,
And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Take unto thee sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum; sweet spices with pure frankincense; of each shall there be a like weight.
35 na ũthondekithie magĩe na mũtararĩko mwega wa ũbumba; wĩra ũcio ũrutwo nĩ mũthondeki mũũgĩ wa maguta. Makorwo mekĩrĩtwo cumbĩ, na marĩ matheru na makaamũrwo.
And thou shalt make of it incense, a perfume after the art of the perfumer, seasoned with salt, pure and holy.
36 Thĩithia mahuti mamwe matuĩke mũtu, naguo ũũige mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, harĩa ndĩĩcemanagia nawe. Ũgaakorwo ũrĩ mũtheru mũno harĩwe.
And thou shalt beat some of it very small, and put of it before the testimony in the tent of meeting, where I will meet with thee; it shall be unto you most holy.
37 Mũtikanethondekere ũbumba wa mũthemba ũyũ nĩ ũndũ wa inyuĩ ene; ũtuagei mũtheru nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova.
And the incense which thou shalt make, according to the composition thereof ye shall not make for yourselves; it shall be unto thee holy for the LORD.
38 Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũrĩa ũgathondeka ũngĩ taguo nĩguo ekenagie na mũtararĩko waguo nĩakaingatwo kuuma kũrĩ andũ ao.”
Whosoever shall make like unto that, to smell thereof, he shall be cut off from his people.'
