Ọpụpụ 30
1 “Jiri osisi akashia rụọ ebe ịchụ aja ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ.
“You shall also make an altar, for the burning of incense, from setim wood,
2 Akụkụ anọ ya ga-aha nʼotu. Ogologo ya na obosara ya ga-adị iri sentimita anọ na ise. Ịdị elu ya ga-adị iri sentimita itoolu. Mpi ya niile ga-esi na ya pụta.
having one cubit in length, and another in width, that is, four equal sides, and two cubits in height. Horns shall proceed from the same.
3 Jiri ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha machie elu ya, akụkụ ya niile nakwa mpi ya niile. Ị ga-ejikwa ọlaedo kpụlite ọnụ ọnụ ya gburugburu.
And you shall clothe it with the purest gold, both its grating and the walls around it, and also the horns. And you shall make for it a crown of gold in a circle,
4 Kpụnye mgbaaka ọlaedo abụọ nʼokpuru ihe ahụ akpụlitere akpụlite, abụọ na ncherita ihu akụkụ ọbụla, ebe ga na-ejide mkpara e ji ebu ya.
and two gold rings under the crown on each side, so that the bars may be set in them and the altar may be carried.
5 Ị ga-eji osisi akashia mee mkpara, jiri ọlaedo machie ha.
Also, you shall make its bars of setim wood, and you shall overlay them with gold.
6 Ị ga-adọba ebe ịchụ aja ahụ nʼihu akwa mgbochi nke kpuchiri igbe iwu ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, nʼihu oche ebere ahụ dị nʼelu igbe iwu ọgbụgba ndụ, nʼebe m ga-ezute gị.
And you shall set the altar opposite the veil, which hangs in front of the ark of the testimony, before the propitiatory with which the testimony is covered, where I will speak to you.
7 “Ụtụtụ niile, mgbe Erọn doziri oriọna, ọ ga-esure ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ahụ.
And Aaron shall burn incense upon it, a sweet fragrance, in the morning. When he lights the lamps, he shall burn it.
8 Nʼanyasị kwa, mgbe ọ na-amụnye ọkụ nʼoriọna ahụ, ọ ga-esurekwa ihe nsure ọkụ. Ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ nke ga-adị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ.
And when he assembles them in the evening, he shall burn an everlasting incense before the Lord throughout your generations.
9 Unu echekwala ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ na-adịghị nsọ nʼelu ya, maọbụ aja nsure ọkụ, maọbụ aja ihe oriri, unu awụpụla onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ nʼelu ya.
You shall not offer upon it incense of another composition, nor an oblation, nor a victim; neither shall you offer libations.
10 Otu ugbo nʼafọ Erọn ga-ekpuchi mmehie nʼelu mpi ya. Mmemme mkpuchi mmehie a nke a na-eme otu ugbo nʼafọ, aghaghị ịbụ nke e ji ọbara nke si nʼaja a chụrụ nʼihi mkpuchi mmehie, nʼihi ọgbọ niile nke na-abịa. A ga na-edo ebe ịchụ aja nsọ otu a. Nke a bụ ebe dịkarịsịrị nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị.”
And Aaron shall pray over its horns once a year, with the blood of what was offered for sin. And he shall make atonement over it in your generations. It shall be the Holy of holies to the Lord.”
11 Mgbe nke a gasịrị, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
12 “Mgbe ọbụla a gụrụ mmadụ ọnụ, onye Izrel ọbụla ga-akwụ Onyenwe anyị ụgwọ o ji gbara mkpụrụobi ya. Nke a dị mkpa, ka ihe otiti ọbụla ghara ịbịakwasị ha mgbe ị ga-agụ ha ọnụ.
“When you have taken the sum of the sons of Israel, according to their number, each shall give a price for their souls to the Lord, and there will be no scourge among them, when they will be reviewed.
13 Ihe onye a gụrụ ọnụ ga-akwụ bụ ọkara shekel, dịka shekel nke ebe nsọ si dị. Ọkara shekel bụ iri gera abụọ. Ọkara shekel a bụ onyinye nye Onyenwe anyị.
Then all those who pass shall give by name: one half shekel, according to the measure at the temple. A shekel has twenty obols. The half part of a shekel shall be offered to the Lord.
14 Ndị kwesiri inye onyinye a bụ ndị niile gbara iri afọ abụọ gbagoo. Ọ bụ ndị a kwesiri inye Onyenwe anyị onyinye a.
He who has been numbered from twenty years and above shall give the price.
15 Ndị ọgaranya agaghị enye karịa ọkara shekel. Otu a kwa ndị ogbenye agaghị enye ihe dị ntakịrị karịa ọkara shekel. Nʼihi na onyinye a bụ onyinye unu na-enye Onyenwe anyị maka ikpuchiri mkpụrụobi unu mmehie.
The rich shall not add to the half shekel, and the poor shall diminish nothing.
16 Nabata ego niile ndị a site nʼaka ụmụ Izrel, ma jiri ya jee ozi dị nʼụlọ nzute. Ihe onyinye a ga-eme bụ ịkpọtụ uche Onyenwe anyị nʼebe unu nọ nʼihi mkpuchi mmehie maka ndụ unu.”
And the money received, which was collected from the sons of Israel, you shall deliver for the uses of the tabernacle of the testimony, so that it may be a memorial of them before the Lord, and he may act favorably toward their souls.”
17 Ọzọkwa, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
18 “Jiri bronz kpụọ efere ukwu na ihe ndọkwasị ya, maka ịsa ihe. Wụnye mmiri nʼime ya, dọsa ya nʼetiti ụlọ nzute na ebe ịchụ aja.
“You shall also make a bronze washtub with its base to wash in; and you shall place it between the tabernacle of the testimony and the altar. And when water has been added,
19 Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom ga na-asa ụkwụ na aka ha site na ya.
Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and feet in it:
20 Mgbe ọbụla ha na-aba nʼụlọ nzute ahụ, ha ga-eji mmiri saa onwe ka ha ghara ịnwụ. Ọzọkwa, mgbe ha na-abịaru nso nʼebe ịchụ aja, maka ije ozi iche onyinye nʼihu Onyenwe anyị site nʼọkụ,
when they enter the tabernacle of the testimony, and when they approach to the altar so as to offer incense to the Lord upon it,
21 ha ga-asa aka ha na ụkwụ ha, ka ha ghara ịnwụ. Nke a ga-abụ ụkpụrụ dịrị Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ.”
otherwise, they may die. This shall be an everlasting law to him, and to his offspring, throughout their successions.”
22 Ọzọkwa, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
And the Lord spoke to Moses,
23 “Were eso osisi na-esi isi ụtọ ndị a dị iche iche: máá, nke ọtụtụ ya ruru kilo isii, na ihe ruru kilo sinamọn abụọ na ụma itoolu, na kilo kalamus atọ,
saying: “Take for yourself aromatics: of the first and best myrrh, five hundred shekels, and of cinnamon half as much, that is, two hundred and fifty shekels; of sweet flag similarly two hundred and fifty,
24 na kilo kashia isii, na lita anọ na ụma asatọ nke mmanụ oliv, dịka ọtụtụ shekel ebe nsọ ahụ si dị.
but of cassia, five hundred shekels by the weight of the sanctuary, and of the oil of olives the measure of a hin.
25 Ị ga-eji ya mepụta mmanụ nsọ, nke dị nsọ, nke a gwakọtara nke ọma dịka nke onye na-eme mmanụ na-esi isi ụtọ mere. Ọ ga-abụ mmanụ otite dị nsọ.
And you shall make the holy oil of unction, an ointment composed with the skills of a perfumer,
26 Ị ga-ewere mmanụ ahụ tee ụlọ nzute ahụ niile na igbe iwu ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ,
and with it you shall anoint the tabernacle of the testimony, and the ark of the testament,
27 na tebul ahụ, na ngwongwo ya niile, na nʼihe ịdọsa oriọna, na nʼihe niile dị ya nʼahụ, na nʼebe ịdọsa ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ,
and the table with its vessels, and the lampstand and its utensils, the altars of incense
28 na nʼebe ịchụ aja nke aja nsure ọkụ, na ngwongwo ya niile, na nʼite ịsa ụkwụ na aka, na nʼebe a na-adọba ya.
and of holocaust, and all the items that pertain to their rituals.
29 Ị ga-edo ha nsọ, ka ha bụrụ ihe dịkarịrị nsọ. Ihe ọbụla metụrụ ha ahụ ga-adịkwa nsọ.
And you shall sanctify everything, and they shall be the Holy of holies. He who will touch them must be sanctified.
30 “Ị ga-eji mmanụ otite a tee Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom. Ha niile ga-adịkwa nsọ, bụrụ ndị na-ejere m ozi dịka ndị nchụaja.
You shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and you shall sanctify them, so that they may exercise the priesthood for me.
31 Gwa ụmụ Izrel okwu sị ha, ‘Nke a bụ mmanụ nsọ m, nke dị nsọ site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ.
Likewise, you shall say to the sons of Israel: ‘This oil of unction will be holy to me throughout your generations.
32 Agaghị awụsa ya nʼahụ mmadụ. O nwekwaghị onye kwesiri imepụta mmanụ otite dị otu a. Ọ dị nsọ, unu kwesikwara ido ya nsọ.
The flesh of man shall not be anointed from it, and you shall not make any similar compound, for it has been sanctified and it shall be holy to you.
33 A ga-esite nʼetiti ndị m wezuga onye ọbụla mere ụdị mmanụ isi ọma a, maọbụ tee ya onye na-abụghị onye nchụaja m.’”
Whatever man will have composed such a thing and have given it to a stranger, he shall be exterminated from his people.’”
34 Mgbe ahụ Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Were ụda na-esi isi ụtọ, dịka eso osisi stakit, na ọnyịcha, na galbanọm, na ezigbo frankisens a na-agwaghị ihe, nke ọtụtụ ha niile ga-abụ otu ihe.
And the Lord said to Moses: “Take to yourself aromatics: stacte, and onycha, galbanum of sweet odor, and the clearest frankincense, all these shall be of equal weight.
35 Mee ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ, nke a gwakọtara nke ọma, bụ ọrụ onye na-eme mmanụ isi ụtọ. Tinyekwa ya nnu, ka ọ bụrụ ihe nsure ọkụ a nụchara anụcha, nke dịkwa nsọ.
And you shall make incense composed with the skills of a perfumer, diligently mixed, and pure, and most worthy of sanctification.
36 Gwerie ụfọdụ nʼime ya ka ọ dịka uzuzu. Wụsa ya nʼihu igbe iwu ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ nʼime ụlọ nzute, ebe m ga-ezute gị. Ọ ga-abụ ihe dịkarịsịrị nsọ nye unu.
And when you have crushed all these into a very fine powder, you shall place some of it before the tabernacle of the testimony, in the place where I will appear to you. The Holy of holies shall this incense be to you.
37 Unu emerela onwe unu nke dịka ọtụtụ ụdị ihe nsure ọkụ a. Hụta ya ka ihe dị nsọ nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ.
You shall not make such a compound for your own uses, because it is holy to the Lord.
38 Onye ọbụla meere onwe ya ụdị ihe nsure ọkụ a, ịnụ isisi ya, a ga-ekewapụ onye ahụ site nʼetiti ụmụnna ya.”
Whatever man will have made anything similar, so as to thoroughly enjoy its smell, he shall perish from his people.”
