Exodus 28
1 “Solalma Aaron, tamulel lom, ac wen natul — Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar ac Ithamar. Srelosla liki mwet Israel uh tuh elos in kulansupweyu ke orekma lun mwet tol.
Now let Aaron your brother, and his sons with him, come near from among the children of Israel, so that they may be my priests, even Aaron, and Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar, his sons.
2 Orala nuknuk in mwet tol lal Aaron, tamulel lom, ma in sang akkalemye mutal ac wolana lun orekma lun mwet tol.
And make holy robes for Aaron your brother, so that he may be clothed with glory and honour.
3 Pangoneni mwet pah in orekma nukewa su nga sang etauk nu se, ac fahk nu selos in orala nuknuk lal Aaron, tuh elan sriyukla nu sik nu ke kunokon lun sie mwet tol.
Give orders to all the wise-hearted workmen, whom I have made full of the spirit of wisdom, to make robes for Aaron, so that he may be made holy as my priest.
4 Fahk nu selos in orala sie mwe loeyuk iniwa, sie nuknuk lun mwet tol pangpang ephod, sie nuknuk loeloes, sie nuknuk loac yunla ke mwe akul, sie nuknuk in lohl insuf, ac sie mwe lohl infulwa. Elos in orala nuknuk in mwet tol inge lal Aaron, tamulel lom, ac wen natul, tuh elos in kulansupweyu ke kunokon lun mwet tol.
This is what they are to make: a priest's bag, an ephod, and a robe, and a coat of coloured needlework, a head-dress, and a linen band; they are to make holy robes for Aaron your brother and for his sons, so that they may do the work of priests for me.
5 Mwet usrnguk in orekma inge fah orekmakin unen sheep ngosla folfol, sroninmutuk ac srusra, turet gold, ac linen srik eoa.
They are to take the gold and blue and purple and red and the best linen,
6 “Elos in orala nuknuk ephod sac ke unen sheep ma tuhn folfol, sroninmutuk ac srusra, turet gold, ac linen srik eoa, naweyuk ke mwe akul.
And make the ephod of gold and blue and purple and red and the best linen, the work of a designer.
7 Sang luo mwe sruh nu finpisa in sruokani siska luo an.
It is to have two bands stitched to it at the top of the arms, joining it together.
8 Sie mwe lohl infulwa ma naweyukla arulana wo orekla pacna ke mwe yun inge in tufah itukyang nu ke ephod sac in orala lumah sefanna.
And the beautifully worked band, which goes on it, is to be of the same work and the same material, of gold and blue and purple and red and twisted linen-work.
9 Eis luo eot onyx ac kihlisya inen wen singoul luo natul Jacob fac,
You are to take two beryl stones, on which the names of the children of Israel are to be cut:
10 fal nu ke takin matwalos — ine onkosr fin sie eot an, ac onkosr fin sie.
Six names on the one stone and six on the other, in the order of their birth.
11 Sang sie mwet pisrla ke kihlisyen mwe naweyuk in oru kihl ke inen wen natul Jacob fin eot luo an, ac sang nu ke frem ma orekla ke gold.
With the work of a jeweller, like the cutting of a stamp, the names of the children of Israel are to be cut on them, and they are to be fixed in twisted frames of gold.
12 Filiya ke mwe sruh finpisa ke nuknuk ephod sac in mwe esmakinyen sruf singoul luo lun Israel. In ouiya se inge Aaron el ac fah us inelos finpisal, tuh nga, LEUM GOD, fah esam mwet luk pacl nukewa.
And the two stones are to be placed on the ephod, over the arm-holes, to be stones of memory for the children of Israel: Aaron will have their names on his arms when he goes in before the Lord, to keep the Lord in mind of them.
13 Orala luo pac frem gold
And you are to make twisted frames of gold;
14 ac lukwa sein ke gold nasnas, pirakla oana luman fu, ac kapsreni nu ke frem luo ah.
And two chains of the best gold, twisted like cords; and have the chains fixed on to the frames.
15 “Orala sie mwe loeyuk iniwa lun Mwet Tol Fulat, elan ku in orekmakin in akilen ma lungse lun God. In orekla pacna ke kain mwe naweyuk ma sang oru nuknuk ephod lun mwet tol, ac in luman mwe akul sac pacna.
And make a priest's bag for giving decisions, designed like the ephod, made of gold and blue and purple and red and the best linen.
16 Lumwani pacl se in maspangla — inch eu lusa ac inch eu sralap.
It is to be square, folded in two, a hand-stretch long and a hand-stretch wide.
17 Filiya tah akosr ke eot saok fac: ke tah soko oemeet sang sie eot ruby, sie eot topaz, ac sie eot garnet.
And on it you are to put four lines of jewels; the first line is to be a cornelian, a chrysolite, and an emerald;
18 Tah soko aklukwa ah, sie eot emerald, sie eot sapphire, ac sie eot diamond.
The second, a ruby, a sapphire, and an onyx;
19 Ke tah soko aktolkwe, sie eot turquoise, sie eot agate, ac sie eot amethyst.
The third, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
20 Ac tah soko akakosr ah, sie eot beryl, sie eot onyx, ac sie eot jasper. Eot inge nukewa in filiyuki ke frem gold.
The fourth, a topaz, a beryl, and a jasper; they are to be fixed in twisted frames of gold.
21 Eot singoul luo inge in kihlyak inen kais sie wen natul Jacob fac, in fahkak sruf singoul luo lun Israel.
The jewels are to be twelve in number, for the names of the children of Israel; every jewel having the name of one of the twelve tribes cut on it as on a stamp.
22 Orala sein ke gold nasnas, pirakela in oana luman fu israpla, tuh in oan ke mwe loeyuk iniwa sac.
And you are to make two chains of gold, twisted like cords, to be fixed to the priest's bag.
23 Orala luo ring gold ac sang nu ke sruwasrik luo lucng ke mwe loeyuk iniwa sac,
And put two gold rings on the two ends of the bag.
24 ac srupusrang sein gold lukwa ah nu ke ring luo ah.
Put the two gold chains on the two rings at the ends of the bag;
25 Kapriya mutun sein lukwa ah nu ke frem luo uh, ac in lumah se inge kom fah kapsreni nu ke layen meet ke mwe sruh finpisa ma oan ke nuknuk ephod sac.
Joining the other ends of the chains to the gold frames and putting them on the front of the ephod, at the top of the arms.
26 Na orala luo ring gold an ac sang nu ke sruwasrik luo ten ke mwe loeyuk iniwa sac, in oan layen loac sisken nuknuk ephod uh.
Then make two gold rings and put them on the lower ends of the bag, at the edge of it on the inner side nearest to the ephod.
27 Orala pac luo ring gold ac sang nu ke layen ten ke acn meet ke mwe sruh luo nu ke finpisa ke nuknuk ephod sac, in oan apkuran ac lucng kutu liki acn se mwe lohl infulwa sac kupasryang nu ke ephod uh.
And make two more gold rings and put them on the front of the ephod at the top of the arms, at the join, over the worked band:
28 Kapriya ring ke mwe loeyuk iniwa, nu ke ring ke ephod uh ke soko ah folfol, tuh mwe loeyuk iniwa sac fah oan lucng liki mwe lohl infulwa uh, tuh in tia putatla liki ephod uh.
So that the rings on the bag may be fixed to the rings of the ephod by a blue cord and on to the band of the ephod, so that the bag may not come loose from the ephod.
29 “Ke pacl Aaron el ac utyak nu in Acn Mutal, el fah nokomang mwe loeyuk iniwa se inge su kihlyak ke inen sruf lun Israel, tuh nga, LEUM GOD, fah esam mwet luk pacl nukewa.
And so Aaron will have the names of the children of Israel on the priest's bag over his heart whenever he goes into the holy place, to keep the memory of them before the Lord.
30 Filiya Urim ac Thummim ke mwe loeyuk iniwa sac, tuh in oan iniwal Aaron ke pacl el utyak nu ye mutuk. Pacl nukewa el enenu in nukum mwe loeyuk iniwa se inge, tuh elan ku in kalem ke ma lungse luk nu sin mwet Israel.
And in the bag you are to put the Urim and Thummim, so that they may be on Aaron's heart whenever he goes in before the Lord; and Aaron may have the power of making decisions for the children of Israel before the Lord at all times.
31 “Nuknuk loeloes se ma oan ye ephod, in orekla nufonna ke unen sheep ngosla folfol.
The robe which goes with the ephod is to be made all of blue;
32 In oasr kwawa se kac nu ke insifa, ac kwawa se inge in pwiyukla ke sie pac nuknuk tuh in tia mihsalik.
With a hole at the top, in the middle of it; the hole is to be edged with a band to make it strong like the hole in the coat of a fighting-man, so that it may not be broken open.
33 Nu ke pikinnia kom fah sang unen sheep tuhn folfol, sroninmutuk, ac srusra ma orekla oana luman fokinsak pomegranate, wi tapweng srisrik gold in oan inmasrlo, rauneak nufon pikinnien nuknuk sac —
And round the skirts of it put fruits in blue and purple and red, with bells of gold between;
34 tapweng gold se, pomegranate se, tapweng gold se, pomegranate se, atupali rauneak pikinnien nuknuk loeloes sac.
A gold bell and a fruit in turn all round the skirts of the robe.
35 Aaron elan nukum nuknuk loeloes se inge ke pacl el oru kulansap lun mwet tol. Pacl el utyak ku illa liki ye mutuk in Acn Mutal, pusren tapweng inge ac lohngyuk, na el ac fah tia anwuki.
Aaron is to put it on for his holy work; and the sound of it will be clear, when he goes into the holy place before the Lord, and when he comes out, keeping him safe from death.
36 “Orala sie mwe yun ke gold nasnas, ac kihlisya kas inge fac: ‘Kisakinyukyang Nu Sin LEUM GOD.’
You are to make a plate of the best gold, cutting on it, as on a stamp, these words: HOLY TO THE LORD.
37 Sang soko ah folfol kapriya nu ke acn meet ke nuknuk in lohl insuf.
Put a blue cord on it and put it on the front of the twisted head-dress:
38 Aaron elan sunya motonsrol, tuh mwet Israel fin tafongla ke elos orek kisa nu sik, mwatalos ac fah oan facl Aaron, ac nga, LEUM GOD, fah eis mwe kisa lalos nukewa.
And it will be over Aaron's brow, so that Aaron will be responsible for any error in all the holy offerings made by the children of Israel; it will be on his brow at all times, so that their offerings may be pleasing to the Lord.
39 “Otwela sie nuknuk loac lal Aaron ac sie mwe lohl insuf ke linen srik eoa, oayapa sie mwe lohl infulwa yuniyukla ke mwe akul.
The coat is to be made of the best linen, worked in squares; and you are to make a head-dress of linen, and a linen band worked in needlework.
40 “Orala nuknuk loac, mwe lohl infulwa, ac mwe lohl insuf lun wen natul Aaron, in fahkak fulat ac wolana lalos.
And for Aaron's sons you are to make coats, and bands, and head-dresses, so that they may be clothed with glory and honour.
41 Nokmulang Aaron, tamulel lom, ac wen natul ke nuknuk inge. Na akmusraelosla ac akmutalyalos ke kom mosrwelosla ke oil in olive, tuh elos fah ku in kulansupweyu ke orekma lun mwet tol.
These you are to put on Aaron, your brother, and on his sons, putting oil on them, separating them and making them holy, to do the work of priests to me.
42 Orek loeyuk linen lalos, ke infulwalosi nu finyepalos, tuh elos fah tia koflufol.
And you are to make them linen trousers, covering their bodies from the middle to the knee;
43 Aaron ac wen natul fah nukum ma inge pacl nukewa ke elos ac ilyak nu ye mutuk nu in Lohm Nuknuk Mutal, ku ke pacl elos kalukyang nu ke loang uh in oru kulansap lun mwet tol in Acn Mutal, tuh elos in tia anwuki ke sripen liyeyuk koflufol lalos. Oakwuk se inge ma nu sel Aaron ac fwilin tulik natul nwe tok.
Aaron and his sons are to put these on whenever they go into the Tent of meeting or come near the altar, when they are doing the work of the holy place, so that they may be free from any sin causing death: this is to be an order for him and his seed after him for ever.
