Egzòd 38
1 Alò, li te fè lotèl ofrann brile a avèk bwa akasya, senk koude nan longè, senk koude nan lajè, kare, ak twa koude nan wotè.
[Several men helped] Bezalel to make the altar for burning sacrifices. They made it from acacia wood. It was square, (7-1/2 feet/2.2 meters) on each side, and it was (4-1/2 feet/1.3 meters) high.
2 Li te fè kòn li sou kat kwen yo. Kòn li yo te yon sèl pyès avèk li, e li te kouvri li avèk bwonz.
They made [a projection that looked like] a horn on each of the top corners. The projections were carved from the same block of wood that the altar [was made of]. They covered the whole altar with bronze.
3 Li te fè tout bagay itil yo pou lotèl la, bokit yo avèk pèl yo, basen yo, kwòk vyann yo, ak plato pou resevwa sann yo. Li te fè tout bagay itil yo an bwonz.
They made the pans in which to put the greasy ashes [from the animal sacrifices]. They also made the shovels for cleaning out the ashes. They made the basins and forks for turning the meat as it cooked, and buckets for carrying hot coals/ashes. All of those things were made from bronze.
4 Li te fè pou lotèl la yon sistèm griyaj an bwonz, anba rebò nan distans pou rive mwatye de wotè l.
They also made a bronze grating to hold the wood and burning coals. They put the grating under the rim that went around the altar. [They] made it so that it was [inside the altar], halfway down.
5 Li te fonde kat wondèl yo sou kat kote nan griyaj an bwonz yo kòm soutyen pou poto yo.
They made bronze rings in which to put the poles [for carrying the altar], and fastened one of them to each of the corners of the altar.
6 Li te fè poto yo avèk bwa akasya, e li te kouvri yo avèk yon kouch an bwonz.
They made the poles from acacia wood and covered them with bronze.
7 Li te antre poto yo nan wondèl sou kote lotèl la. Se avèk yo li te pote l. Fòm li te vid, fòme avèk planch yo.
They put the poles through the rings on each side of the altar. The poles were for carrying the altar.
8 Anplis, li te fè basen lave a avèk bwonz avèk yon baz an bwonz, ki te sòti nan miwa fanm sèvant yo ki t ap sèvi nan pòtay tant reyinyon an.
The altar was [hollow] like an empty box. It was made from boards [of acacia wood]. They made/cast the washbasin and its base from bronze. The bronze was from the mirrors that belonged to the women who worked at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
9 Alò li te fè galeri a: pou kote sid la, afè pandye yo te fèt avèk twal fen blan byen tòde, san koude nan longè,
[Around the Sacred Tent] Bezalel and his helpers made a courtyard. To form the courtyard, they made curtains of fine white linen. On the south side, the curtain was (150 feet/46 meters) long.
10 avèk ven pilye li yo, ak baz reseptikal fèt an bwonz yo, avèk ven kwòk pilye yo avèk bann seraj an ajan yo.
[To hang the curtain], they made 20 bronze posts and 20 bronze bases, [one for under each post]. [To fasten the curtains to] the posts, they made silver hooks, and [they made metal] rods [covered with] silver.
11 Pou kote nò a te gen san koude yo; ven pilye li yo avèk ven baz reseptikal an bwonz yo, epi kwòk pou pilye yo avèk bann seraj pa yo te an ajan.
They made the same kind of curtains, posts, bases, and hooks for the north side of the courtyard.
12 Pou kote lwès la te gen afè pandye pou senkant koude yo avèk dis pilye pa yo e bann seraj yo te an ajan.
On the west side [of the courtyard], they made a curtain (75 feet/23 meters) long. They also made ten posts on which to hang the curtains, and ten bases, with silver hooks and [metal] rods [covered with] silver.
13 Pou kote lès la, senkant koude yo.
On the east side, [where the entrance is], the courtyard was (75 feet/23 meters) wide.
14 Afè pandye yo pou yon kote pòtay la te kenz koude, avèk twa pilye pa yo e twa baz reseptikal pa yo;
On each side of the entrance, they made a curtain (22-1/2 feet/6.6 meters) wide. On each side they [were hung from] three posts, and one base was under each post.
15 epi menm jan an pou lòt kote a. Sou toude kote pòtay yo te gen afè pandye de kenz koude, avèk twa pilye pa yo ak twa baz reseptikal pa yo.
16 Tout afè pandye nan galeri yo toutotou te avèk twal fen blan byen tòde.
All the curtains around the courtyard were made from fine white linen.
17 Baz reseptikal pou pilye ki te an bwonz yo, kwòk pou pilye yo ak bann seraj an ajan yo; epi yon kouch lò ki te kouvri pwent tèt yo. Tout pilye galeri yo te founi avèk bann seraj an ajan yo.
All the posts around the courtyard were made of bronze, but the tops were covered with silver. The posts were connected with [metal] rods [covered with] silver. The clasps/fasteners and hooks were made of silver.
18 Rido pòtay la te èv a tiseran an, avèk materyo ble, mov, wouj, ak twal fen blan byen tòde. Epi longè a se te ven koude e wotè a te senk koude, ki te koresponn ak afè pandye nan galeri yo.
For the entrance of the courtyard, they made a curtain from fine white linen, and a skilled weaver embroidered it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread. The curtain was (30 feet/9 meters) long and (7-1/2 feet/2.3 meters) high, just like the other curtains around the courtyard.
19 Kat pilye pa yo avèk baz reseptikal pa yo a te an bwonz; kwòk pa yo a te an ajan.
All the curtains were made of fine white linen. They were supported by four posts, and [under each post] was a base made of bronze. All the posts around the courtyard were connected with [metal] rods [covered with] silver. The clasps/fasteners were made of silver, and the tops of the posts were covered with silver.
20 Tout pikèt yo pou tabènak la avèk galeri a toutotou a te an bwonz.
All the tent pegs to support the Sacred Tent and the curtains around the courtyard were made of bronze.
21 Sa se kantite a bagay ki te pou tabènak yo, tabènak temwayaj la, jan yo te nimewote selon lòd a Moïse, pou sèvis Levit yo, ekri pa men a Ithamar, fis Aaron an, prèt la.
Here is a list of the amounts of metal used to make the Sacred Tent. Moses/I told [some men from] the tribe of Levi to [count all the materials used and] write down the amounts. Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest, supervised those men.
22 Alò, Betsaléel fis a Uri, fis a Hur, nan tribi Juda a, te fè tout sa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse yo.
Bezalel the son of Uri and grandson of Hur made all the things that Yahweh commanded Moses/me to be made.
23 Avèk li te gen Oholiab, fis a Ahisamac la, nan tribi Dan nan, yon gravè, yon mèt ouvriye, yon tiseran an materyo ble, mov, wouj, ak osi an twal fen blan.
Bezalel’s helper was Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. Oholiab was a skilled engraver who made artistic things. He made fine white linen, and he embroidered designs using blue, purple, and red yarn/thread. He also made other cloth.
24 Epi tout lò ki te sèvi nan èv la, nan tout travay sanktyè a, menm lò pou ofrann balanse anlè a te ventnèf talan e sèt-san-trant sik selon sik sanktyè a.
All the gold that was used to make the Sacred Tent weighed (2,195 pounds/1,000 kg.). They used the official standard when they weighed the gold.
25 Ajan a sa yo ki te nan kongregasyon an te gen kantite san talan e mil sèt san swasann kenz sik selon sik sanktyè a;
All the silver that the people contributed when the leaders (took the census/counted the men) weighed (7,500 pounds/3,400 kg.). They also used the official standard when they weighed the silver.
26 yon beka pa chak tèt (sa vle di, mwatye sik, selon sik sanktyè a), pou chak moun nan sa ki te gen nimewo yo, soti nan laj ventan, e plis pou sis-san-mil-senk-san-senkant mesye.
All the men who were at least 20 years old were counted, and they each paid the required amount. That was a total of 603,550 men.
27 San talan ajan yo te pou fonde baz reseptikal sanktyè yo, ak baz reseptikal pou vwal yo; san baz reseptikal yo pou san talan, yon talan pa baz reseptikal.
They used (75 pounds/34 kg.) of silver for making/casting each of the 100 bases to [put under the posts to support] the curtains of the Sacred Tent.
28 Nan mil sèt san swasant kenz sik yo, li te fè kwòk pou pilye yo, li te kouvri tèt yo, e li te fè bann seraj pou yo.
Bezalel [and his helpers] used the (50 pounds/30 kg.) of silver that was not used for the bases to make the rods and the hooks for the posts, and to cover the tops of the posts.
29 Bwonz pou ofrann balanse anlè a te swasann-dis talan e de-mil-senk-san sik.
The bronze that the people contributed weighed (5,310 pounds/2,425 kg.).
30 Avèk li, li te fè baz reseptikal yo pou pòtay tant reyinyon an, lotèl bwonz lan avèk griyaj an bwonz li, ak tout bagay itil pou lotèl yo,
With the bronze, Bezalel and his helpers made the bases for under the posts at the entrance of the Sacred Tent. They also made the altar for burning sacrifices, the grating for it and the tools used with it,
31 epi baz reseptikal yo pou galeri a, tout pikèt a tabènak yo ak tout pikèt pou galeri yo toutotou.
the bases for the posts [that supported the curtains] that surrounded the courtyard and the bases for the entrance to the courtyard, and the pegs for the Sacred Tent and for [the curtains around] the courtyard.
