Egzòd 28
1 “Epi fè Aaron, frè ou a vin pre ou menm, avèk fis pa li yo avè l, pami fis Israël yo pou sèvi kòm prèt pou Mwen—Aaron, Nadab, avèk Abihu, Éléazar, ak Ithamar, fis Aaron yo.
Call to yourself Aaron your brother and his sons—Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar—from among the Israelites so that they may serve me as priests.
2 “Ou va fè vètman sen pou Aaron, frè ou a, pou onore li, e pou l byen parèt.
You must make for Aaron, your brother, garments that are set apart to me. These garments will be for his honor and splendor.
3 Ou va pale avèk tout moun ki kapab yo, sa yo ke M te bay yon lespri sajès, pou fè vètman Aaron yo pou konsakre li, pou li kapab sèvi Mwen kòm prèt.
You must speak to all people who are wise in heart, those whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, so that they may make Aaron's garments to set him apart to serve me as my priest.
4 “Sa yo se vètman ke yo va fè: yon pyès pou kouvri lestomak yo, yon efòd, avèk yon gwo manto, yon tinik avèk yon modèl kare, yon tiban pou tèt la, yon sentiwon ki fèt an twal. Yo va fè vètman sen yo pou Aaron, frè ou a ak fis li yo, pou li kapab sèvi kòm prèt pou Mwen.
The garments that they must make are a breastpiece, an ephod, a robe, a coat of woven work, a turban, and a sash. They must make these garments that are set them apart to me. They will be for your brother Aaron and his sons so that they may serve me as priests.
5 Yo va pran lò a avèk twal ble, mov, wouj, ak twal fin blan an.
Craftsmen must use fine linen that is gold, blue, purple, and scarlet.
6 “Yo va osi fè efòd la avèk lò, avèk twal ble, mov, wouj, ak twal fen blanc ki byen tòde, travay a yon mèt ouvriye byen prepare.
They must make the ephod of gold, of blue, purple, and scarlet wool, and of fine-twined linen. It must be the work of a skillful craftsman.
7 Li va gen de pyès zepòl ki jwenn nan pwent li yo, pou li kapab jwenn ansanm.
It must have two shoulder pieces attached to its two upper corners.
8 Bann tise ki fèt avèk yon bòdi byen prepare sou li a, va menm jan ak kalite travay a li menm nan, avèk menm twal la: an lò, ble, mov, e wouj, avèk twal fen blan byen tòde a.
Its finely-woven waistband must be like the ephod; it must be made of one piece with the ephod, made of fine twined linen that is gold, blue, purple, and scarlet.
9 “Ou va pran de pyè oniks, e grave sou yo non a fis Israël yo.
You must take two onyx stones and engrave on them the names of Israel's twelve sons.
10 Sis nan non yo va sou yon pyè, e sis ki rete yo sou lòt pyè a, selon lòd nesans yo.
Six of their names must be on one stone, and six names must be on the other stone, in order of the sons' birth.
11 Ak travay a yon mèt grave sou bijou, tankou fèt pou yon so, ou va grave sou pyè yo selon non a fis Israël yo. Ou va monte monti fèt an lò yo.
With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engraving on a signet, you must engrave the two stones with the names of Israel's twelve sons. You must mount the stones in settings of gold.
12 Ou va mete de pyè sa yo sou pyès zepòl yo nan efòd la, kòm pyè pou toujou sonje fis Israël yo. Konsa, Aaron va pote non pa yo devan SENYÈ a sou de zepòl li yo tankou yon bagay komemoratif.
You must put the two stones on the shoulder pieces of the ephod, to be stones to remind Yahweh of Israel's sons. Aaron will carry their names before Yahweh on his two shoulders as a reminder to him.
13 Ou va pozisyone l sou yon monti fèt an lò,
You must make settings of gold
14 ak de chèn an lò pi, Ou va fè yo tankou èv kòd ki tòde, e ou va mete chèn trese yo sou monti lò yo.
and two braided chains of pure gold like cords, and you must attach the chains to the settings.
15 “Ou va fè yon pyès jijman pou lestomak, èv a yon mèt ouvriye; tankou èv efòd la, ou va fè li: avèk lò, twal ble, mov, e wouj, tòde byen fen ou va fè li.
You must make a breastpiece for decision making, the work of a skillful workman, fashioned like the ephod. Make it of gold, of blue, purple, and scarlet wool, and of fine linen.
16 Li va kare, plwaye doub, yon epann lajè yon men louvri nan lajè, e yon epann nan longè.
It is to be square. You must fold the breastpiece double. It must be one span long and one span wide.
17 “Ou va monte sou li kat ranje nan pyè yo; premye ranje a va yon ranje avèk woubi, topaz ak emwod;
You must place in it four rows of precious stones. The first row must have a ruby, a topaz, and a garnet.
18 epi dezyèm ranje a yon tikwaz, yon safi, avèk yon dyaman;
The second row must have an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.
19 epi twazyèm ranje a, yon opal, yon agat, ak yon ametis;
The third row must have a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst.
20 epi nan katriyèm ranje a, yon krizolit, yon oniks, avèk yon jasp; yo va plase nan monti an lò yo.
The fourth row must have a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper. They must be mounted in gold settings.
21 Pyè yo va selon non fis Israël yo: douz selon non pa yo. Yo va grave yo tankou sa ki fèt nan selil yo, yo chak selon non pa yo pou douz tribi yo.
The stones must be arranged by the names of Israel's twelve sons, each in order by name. They must be like the engraving on a signet ring, each name standing for one of the twelve tribes.
22 “Ou va fè sou pyès lestomak la, chèn tankou kòd ki tòde, yon zèv ki fèt avèk lò pi.
You must make on the breastpiece chains like cords, braided work of pure gold.
23 Ou va fè nan pyès lestomak la de wondèl an lò, e ou va mete de wondèl yo nan de pwent yo nan pyès lestomak la.
You must make two rings of gold for the breastpiece and must attach them to the two ends of the breastpiece.
24 Ou va mete de kòd lò yo nan de wondèl yo nan pwent a pyès lestomak yo.
You must attach the two golden chains to the two corners of the breastpiece.
25 Ou va mete lòt de pwent kòd yo nan de monti fèt byen fen yo, e mete yo sou pyès zepòl a efòd la, pa devan li.
You must attach the other ends of the two braided chains to the two settings. Then you must attach those to the shoulder pieces of the ephod at its front.
26 “Ou va fè de wondèl an lò e ou va plase yo sou de pwent pyès lestomak yo, akote li, ki se bò kote anndan efòd la.
You must make two rings of gold, and you must put them on the other two corners of the breastpiece, on the edge next to the inner border.
27 Ou va mete de wondèl an lò e ou va mete yo nan pati anba pyès efòd yo, pa devan li, toupre plas kote li jwenn nan, anwo bann tise byen fen nan efòd la.
You must make two more gold rings, and you must attach them to the bottom of the two shoulder pieces of the front of the ephod, close to its seam above the finely-woven waistband of the ephod.
28 Yo va atache pyès lestomak la pa wondèl li yo ak wondèl efòd yo avèk yon kòd an ble, pou li kapab sou bann nan ki trese byen fen nan efòd la, pou pyès lestomak la pa vin detache nan efòd la.
They must tie the breastpiece by its rings to the ephod's rings with a blue cord, so that it might be attached just above the ephod's woven waistband. This is so that the breastpiece might not become unattached from the ephod.
29 “Aaron va pote non a fis Israël yo nan pyès lestomak jijman an sou kè li lè l ap antre nan lye sen an, kòm yon souvni pou tout tan devan SENYÈ a.
When Aaron goes into the holy place, he must carry the names of the people of Israel over his heart in the breastpiece for decision making, as a continuing memorial before Yahweh.
30 Ou va mete nan pyès lestomak jijman an, Ourim nan avèk Toumim nan, e yo va sou kè Aaron lè l ap antre devan SENYÈ a. Konsa, Aaron va pote jijman a fis Israël yo sou kè li tout tan devan SENYÈ a.
You are to put the Urim and the Thummim in the breastpiece for decision making, so they may be over Aaron's heart when he goes in before Yahweh. Thus Aaron will always carry the means for making decisions for the people of Israel over his heart before Yahweh.
31 “Ou va fè tout manto efòd la an ble.
You will make the robe of the ephod entirely of blue fabric.
32 Va genyen yon ouvèti nan tèt anwo li, nan mitan li. Ozanviwon ouvèti li va genyen yon bòdi ak zèv trese, tankou ouvèti nan yon pwotèj batay, pou li pa chire.
It must have an opening for the head in the middle. The opening must have a woven edge round about so that it does not tear. This must be the work of a weaver.
33 Ou va fè nan woulèt li grenad ak materyèl ble, mov, e wouj, toutotou woulèt li, ak klòch an lò antre yo chak toutotou:
On the bottom hem, you must make pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn all around. Gold bells must be between them all around.
34 yon klòch an lò ak yon grenad, yon klòch an lò ak yon grenad, toutotou woulèt manto a.
There must be a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate—and so on—all around the hem of the robe.
35 Li va sou Aaron lè l ap fè sèvis li; epi son li va tande lè l ap antre e soti nan lye sen an devan SENYÈ a, jis pou li pa mouri.
The robe is to be on Aaron when he serves, so that its sound can be heard when he goes into the holy place before Yahweh and when he leaves. This is so that he does not die.
36 “Ou va osi fè yon plak avèk lò pi, e li va grave sou li, jan li grave a yon so: “Sen a SENYÈ a.”
You must make a plate of pure gold and engrave on it, like the engraving on a signet, “Holy to Yahweh.”
37 Ou va tache li avèk yon kòd ble, e li va rete sou tiban an; li va pa devan tiban an.
You must attach this plate by a blue cord to the front of the turban.
38 Li va sou fwon Aaron, e Aaron va retire inikite nan bagay sen ke fis Israël yo konsakre yo, selon tout ofrann sen pa yo; epi li va toujou sou fwon li, pou yo kapab aksepte devan SENYÈ a.
It must be on Aaron's forehead; he must always bear any guilt that might attach to the offering of the holy gifts that the Israelites set apart to Yahweh. The turban must be always on his forehead so that Yahweh may accept their gifts.
39 Ou va trese yon tinik avèk modèl kare avèk twal fen blan, ou va fè yon tiban avèk twal fen blan, e ou va fè yon sentiwon bwode, èv a yon bòs tiseran.
You must make the coat with fine linen, and you must make a turban of fine linen. You must also make a sash, the work of an embroiderer.
40 Pou fis Aaron yo ou va fè tinik yo; ou va osi fè sentiwon pou yo. Ou va fè chapo pou yo, pou onore yo, e pou fè yo byen parèt.
For Aaron's sons you must make coats, sashes, and headbands for their honor and splendor.
41 Ou va mete yo sou Aaron, frè ou a, sou fis li yo avèk li, epi ou va vide lwil sou yo pou fè òdonasyon yo e konsakre yo, pou yo kab sèvi Mwen kòm prèt.
You must clothe Aaron your brother, and his sons with him. You must anoint them, ordain them, and set them apart to me, so that they may serve me as priests.
42 “Ou va fè pou yo pantalon avèk len pou kouvri nidite yo. Yo va sòti nan ren yo jis rive nan kwis yo.
You must make for them linen undergarments to cover their naked flesh, that will cover them from the waist to the thighs.
43 Yo va sou Aaron avèk fis li yo lè y ap antre nan tant reyinyon an, oswa lè y ap pwoche lotèl la pou fè sèvis nan lye sen an, pou yo pa atire koupabilite, e mouri. “Sa va yon règleman pou tout tan pou li, e pou desandan apre li yo.”
Aaron and his sons must wear these garments when they enter the tent of meeting or when they approach the altar to serve in the holy place. They must do this so they would not be guilty or else they would die. This is a permanent law for Aaron and his descendants after him.
