1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ:
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 “Ũgaaka hema ĩyo nyamũre, nĩo Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri wa mbere.
On the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
3 Nĩũkaiga ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira thĩinĩ wayo, na ũhakanie ithandũkũ rĩu na gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio.
And thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony, and separate the ark with the vail.
4 Ningĩ nĩũgatoonyia metha na ũmĩigĩrĩre indo ciayo, na ũcibange wega. Ningĩ ũtoonyie mũtĩ wa tawa, na ũũigĩrĩre matawa maguo.
And thou shalt bring in the table, and arrange the order of the showbread upon it; and thou shalt bring in the candlestick, and light the lamps thereof.
5 Ningĩ ũige kĩgongona gĩa thahabu gĩa gũcinĩrwo ũbumba mbere ya Ithandũkũ rĩu rĩa Ũira, na wĩkĩre gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio itoonyero-inĩ rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre.
And thou shalt set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the testimony; and thou shalt put up the hanging at the door to the tabernacle.
6 “Iga kĩgongona kĩa maruta ma njino mbere ya itoonyero rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre, na nĩyo Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo;
And thou shalt set the altar of burnt-offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
7 ũige kĩraĩ gĩa gwĩthambĩrwo gatagatĩ ka Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo na kĩgongona, na ũgĩĩkĩre maaĩ.
And thou shalt set the laver between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar, and thou shalt put water therein.
8 Aka nja ĩmĩthiũrũrũkĩrie, na wĩkĩre gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio itoonyero-inĩ rĩa nja ĩyo.
And thou shalt set up the court round about, and put up the hanging at the gate of the court.
9 “Oya maguta ma gũitanĩrĩrio, na ũitĩrĩrie hema ĩyo nyamũre na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wayo; mĩamũre na indo ciayo ciothe, na nĩĩgatuĩka theru.
And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that is therein; and thou shalt hallow it, with all its vessels, and it shall be holy.
10 Ningĩ ũitĩrĩrie maguta kĩgongona kĩa maruta ma njino na indo ciakĩo ciothe; wamũre kĩgongona kĩu, nakĩo nĩgĩgatuĩka gĩtheru mũno.
And thou shalt anoint the altar of burnt-offering, and all its vessels; and thou shalt sanctify the altar, and the altar shall be most holy.
11 Itĩrĩria kĩraĩ gĩa gwĩthambĩrwo na kĩgũrũ gĩakĩo maguta, ũciamũre.
And thou shalt anoint the laver with its foot, and sanctify it.
12 “Rehe Harũni na ariũ ake itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, na ũmathambie na maaĩ.
And thou shalt bring near Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.
13 Ningĩ ũhumbe Harũni nguo iria theru, ũmũitĩrĩrie maguta, na ũmwamũre nĩguo andungatĩre arĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
And thou shalt clothe Aaron with the holy garments; and thou shalt anoint him, and sanctify him, that he may be a priest unto me.
14 Rehe ariũ ake, ũmahumbe kanjũ.
And his sons shalt thou bring near, and clothe them with coats:
15 Maitĩrĩrie maguta o ta ũrĩa ũitĩrĩirie ithe wao, nĩguo mandungatĩre marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai. Gũitĩrĩrio maguta kwao nĩkũmatoonyia ũtungata-inĩ wa ũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa ũgũtũũra njiarwa-inĩ ciothe iria igooka.”
And thou shalt anoint them, as thou hast anointed their father, that they may be priests unto me; and this shall be, that their anointing shall be unto them for an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.
16 Nake Musa agĩĩka maũndũ mothe o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
And Moses did so; all, just as the Lord had commanded him, so did he.
17 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio hema ĩyo nyamũre ĩgĩakwo mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri wa mbere, mwaka-inĩ wa keerĩ.
And it came to pass in the first month in the second year, on the first of the month, that the tabernacle was reared up.
18 Rĩrĩa Musa aakire hema ĩyo nyamũre, nĩaigire itina handũ ha cio, na akĩrũgamia buremu, agĩtoonyia mĩgamba na akĩrũgamia itugĩ.
And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and placed its sockets, and set up its boards, and put in its bars, and reared up its pillars.
19 Ningĩ agĩtambũrũkia hema igũrũ rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre na akĩigĩrĩra kĩhumbĩri igũrũ rĩa hema o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
And he spread the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent over it above; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
20 Agĩcooka akĩoya ihengere cia Ũira, na agĩciiga thĩinĩ wa ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro. Akĩnyiitithania mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩraaya na ithandũkũ, na akĩiga gĩtĩ gĩa tha igũrũ rĩa ithandũkũ rĩu.
And he took and put the testimony into the ark, and placed the staves on the ark; and he put the mercy-seat upon the ark above.
21 Ningĩ akĩrehe ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro thĩinĩ wa hema ĩyo nyamũre, na agĩĩkĩra gĩtambaya gĩa kũhakania na akĩhakania ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the vail of the separation, and made therewith a separation for the ark of the testimony; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
22 Musa akĩiga metha thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo mwena wa gathigathini wa hema ĩyo nyamũre, nja ya gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio
And he put the table in the tabernacle of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle, northward, without the vail.
23 na akĩigĩrĩra mĩgate igũrũ rĩayo o hau mbere ya Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
And he arranged upon it the order of bread before the Lord; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
24 Akĩiga mũtĩ wa kũigĩrĩrwo matawa thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo ũngʼetheire metha mwena wa gũthini wa hema ĩyo nyamũre,
And he placed the candlestick in the tabernacle of the congregation, opposite the table, on the side of the tabernacle, southward.
25 na agĩakia matawa macio mbere ya Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
And he lighted the lamps before the Lord; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
26 Musa agĩtoonyia kĩgongona gĩa thahabu thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo hau mbere ya gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio,
And he placed the golden altar in the tabernacle of the congregation before the vail.
27 na agĩcinĩra ũbumba ũrĩa mũnungi wega ho o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
And he burnt thereon the incense of spices; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
28 Ningĩ agĩcuuria gĩtambaya itoonyero-inĩ rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre.
And he put up the hanging at the door to the tabernacle.
29 Ningĩ akĩiga kĩgongona kĩa maruta ma njino hakuhĩ na itoonyero rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre, nĩyo Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, na akĩrutĩra magongona ma njino igũrũ rĩakĩo o na magongona ma ngano, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
And the altar of burnt-offering he placed by the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation; and he offered upon it the burnt-offering and the meat-offering; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
30 Nĩaigire kĩraĩ gĩa gwĩthambĩrwo gatagatĩ ka Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo na kĩgongona na agĩgĩĩkĩra maaĩ ma gwĩthamba,
And he set the laver between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar, and put water there, for washing.
31 nake Musa na Harũni na ariũ ake magĩtũmĩra maaĩ macio gwĩthamba moko na magũrũ.
And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed therefrom their hands and their feet.
32 Nĩmethambaga hĩndĩ ciothe magĩtoonya Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo kana magĩkuhĩrĩria kĩgongona o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
When they went in unto the tabernacle of the congregation, and when they came near unto the altar, they washed themselves; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
33 Ningĩ Musa agĩaka nja gũthiũrũrũka hema ĩyo nyamũre na kĩgongona na agĩĩkĩra gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio itoonyero rĩa nja ĩyo. Na nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa akĩrĩkia wĩra ũcio.
And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and put up the hanging of the gate of the court; and so did Moses finish the work.
34 Hĩndĩ ĩyo itu rĩkĩhumbĩra Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, naguo riiri wa Jehova ũkĩiyũra hema ĩyo nyamũre.
And the cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
35 Musa ndangĩahotire gũtoonya Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo tondũ itu rĩaikarĩte igũrũ rĩayo, naguo riiri wa Jehova ũkaiyũra hema ĩyo nyamũre.
And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation; because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
36 Ngʼendo-inĩ ciothe cia andũ a Isiraeli-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe itu rĩoyagwo na igũrũ kuuma hema ĩyo nyamũre, nĩguo moimagaraga;
And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel were wont to go onward in all their journeyings.
37 no itu rĩĩaga kuoywo na igũrũ, nao makaaga kuumagara, nginya mũthenya ũrĩa rĩkoywo na igũrũ.
But if the cloud was not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that is was taken up.
38 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio itu rĩa Jehova rĩaikaraga igũrũ wa hema ĩyo nyamũre mũthenya, naguo mwaki wakoragwo itu-inĩ rĩu ũtukũ, rĩgakĩonagwo nĩ nyũmba yothe ya Isiraeli mahinda mothe ngʼendo-inĩ ciao ciothe.
For the cloud of the Lord was upon the tabernacle by day, and a fire was by night on it, before the eyes of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeyings.
