and the woven clothes for serving in the holy place: the sacred clothing for Aaron the priest and for his sons to serve as priests.”
20 Naguo mũingĩ wothe wa andũ a Isiraeli ũkĩehera harĩ Musa,
The Israelites left Moses,
21 na mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa weyendeire na ngoro yake yahĩĩahĩaga, nĩokire na akĩrehera Jehova kĩndũ gĩa kũmũrutĩra nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra wa hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo na mawĩra mayo mothe, o na nĩ ũndũ wa nguo iria nyamũre.
and all those who felt moved to do so and who had a willing spirit came and brought an offering to the Lord for the work making the Tent of Meeting, for everything required for its services, and for the sacred clothing.
22 Arĩa maiguire metĩkĩra ũhoro ũcio, arũme na andũ-a-nja o ũndũ ũmwe, nĩmookire na makĩrehe mathaga ma thahabu ma mĩthemba yothe: namo nĩ mbini ngʼemie cia gwĩkĩrwo nguo-inĩ, na icũhĩ cia matũ, na icũhĩ cia ciara na mathaga mangĩ.

So everyone who was willing, both men and women, came and presented their gold as a thanks offering to the Lord, including brooches, earrings, rings, and necklaces—all kinds of gold jewelry.
23 Ũrĩa wothe warĩ na ndigi cia rangi wa bururu, kana cia rangi wa ndathi, kana cia rangi mũtune ta gakarakũ, kana gatani ĩrĩa njega, kana guoya wa mbũri, kana njũa cia ndũrũme itoboketio rangi-inĩ mũtune igatunĩha, kana njũa cia pomboo, nĩacireehire.
Everyone who had blue, purple, and crimson thread, finely-woven linen, goat hair, tanned ram skins, and fine leather, contributed them.

Those who could present an offering of silver or bronze brought it as a gift to the Lord. Everyone who had acacia wood for any part of the work donated it.
25 Mũndũ-wa-nja o wothe warĩ mũũgĩ wĩra-inĩ wa kuogotha ndigi na moko make, akĩrehe kĩrĩa ogothete, ndigi cia rangi wa bururu, kana cia rangi wa ndathi, kana cia rangi mũtune ta gakarakũ, kana gatani ĩrĩa njega.
Every woman skilled in spinning with her hands brought what she had spun: blue, purple, or crimson thread, or finely-woven linen.
26 Nao andũ-a-nja othe arĩa meyendeire na nĩ maarĩ na ũũgĩ ũcio, nĩmoogothire ndigi cia guoya wa mbũri.
All the women who were willing to use their skills spun the goat hair.
27 Atongoria marehire tũhiga twa onigithi na tũhiga tũngĩ twa goro tũtumĩrĩrwo nguo-inĩ ya ebodi na gakuo ga gĩthũri.
The leaders brought onyx stones and gemstones to make the ephod and breastpiece,
28 Nĩmacookire makĩrehe mahuti manungi wega, na maguta ma mĩtamaiyũ ma gwakia tawa, na maguta ma gũitanĩrĩrio o na ma gũthondeka ũbumba ũrĩa mũnungi wega.
as well as spices and olive oil for lighting, for the anointing oil, and for the aromatic incense.
29 Andũ a Isiraeli othe, arũme na andũ-a-nja arĩa meyendeire, nĩmareheire Jehova maruta ma kwĩyendera nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra ũrĩa Jehova aamaathĩte na kanua ka Musa marute.
All the Israelite men and women who were willing brought a freewill offering to the Lord for all the work in making what the Lord through Moses had ordered them to do.
30 Ningĩ Musa akĩĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ, “Onei, Jehova nĩathuurĩte Bezaleli mũrũ wa Uri ũrĩa mũriũ wa Huri, wa mũhĩrĩga wa Juda,
Then Moses told the Israelites, “The Lord chosen by name Bezalel, son of Uri, son of Hur, from the tribe of Judah.

34 Na eerĩ, we marĩ na Oholiabu mũrũ wa Ahisamaku wa mũhĩrĩga wa Dani, nĩamaheete ũhoti wa kũruta andũ arĩa angĩ.
The Lord has also given him and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, from the tribe of Dan, the ability to teach others.
35 Nĩamaiyũrĩtie na ũũgĩ wa kũruta mawĩra mothe, marĩ mabundi, na acori, na agemia na ndigi cia rangi wa bururu, na cia rangi wa ndathi, na cia rangi mũtune ta gakarakũ, na gatani ĩrĩa njega, o na atumi: othe marĩ mabundi moogĩ, na acori oogĩ.
He has equipped them with skill to do all kinds of work as engravers, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple, and crimson thread, and finely-woven linen, and as weavers—in fact as skilled designers in all kinds of different crafts.
