Kobima 40
1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 — Na mokolo ya liboso ya sanza ya liboso, okotelemisa Mongombo, Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani;
On the first day of the first month, at the new moon, thou shalt set up the tabernacle of witness,
3 okotia kati na yango Sanduku ya Litatoli mpe okozipa yango na rido.
and thou shalt place [in it] the ark of the testimony, and shalt cover the ark with the veil,
4 Okokotisa mesa mpe okotia biloko oyo esengeli kozala likolo na yango; okokotisa etelemiselo ya minda mpe okopelisa minda na yango.
and thou shalt bring in the table and shalt set forth that which is to be set forth on it; and thou shalt bring in the candlestick and place its lamps on it.
5 Okotia etumbelo ya malasi, oyo basala na wolo liboso ya Sanduku ya Litatoli mpe okotia rido, na ekotelo ya Mongombo.
And thou shalt place the golden altar, to burn incense before the ark; and thou shalt put a covering of a veil on the door of the tabernacle of witness.
6 Okotia etumbelo ya mbeka ya kotumba liboso ya ekotelo ya Mongombo, Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani,
And thou shalt put the altar of burnt-offerings by the doors of the tabernacle of witness, and thou shalt set up the tabernacle round about, and thou shalt hallow all that belongs to it round about.
7 mpe okotia sani mpo na komipetola na kati-kati ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpe etumbelo, mpe okotia mayi kati na yango.
8 Okotonga lopango zingazinga na yango mpe okotia rido na ekotelo ya lopango.
9 Okozwa mafuta ya epakolami, okopakola Mongombo mpe nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango, mpe okobulisa yango elongo na bisalelo na yango nyonso mpe yango ekozala bule.
And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and shalt anoint the tabernacle, and all things in it; and shalt sanctify it, and all its furniture, and it shall be holy.
10 Okopakola mafuta na etumbelo ya mbeka ya kotumba mpe bisalelo na yango nyonso; okobulisa etumbelo mpe yango ekozala bule koleka.
And thou shalt anoint the altar of burnt-offerings, and all its furniture; and thou shalt hallow the altar, and the altar shall be most holy.
11 Okopakola mafuta na sani mpo na komipetola mpe evandelo na yango, mpe okobulisa yango.
12 Okomema Aron mpe bana na ye ya mibali na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpe okosukola bango na mayi.
And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons to the doors of the tabernacle of witness, and thou shalt wash them with water.
13 Sima na yango, okolatisa Aron bilamba ya bule, okopakola ye mafuta mpe okobulisa ye mpo ete asalela Ngai lokola Nganga-Nzambe.
And thou shalt put on Aaron the holy garments, and thou shalt anoint him, and thou shalt sanctify him, and he shall minister to me as priest.
14 Okomema mpe bana na ye ya mibali mpe okolatisa bango banzambala.
And thou shalt bring up his sons, and shalt put garments on them.
15 Okopakola bango mafuta ndenge opakolaki tata na bango, mpo ete basalela Ngai lokola Banganga-Nzambe: epakolami na bango ekopesa bango nzela mpo na kosala mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe libela na libela kati na bakitani na bango.
And thou shalt anoint them as thou didst anoint their father, and they shall minister to me as priests; and it shall be that they shall have an everlasting anointing of priesthood, throughout their generations.
16 Moyize asalaki nyonso oyo Yawe atindaki ye.
And Moses did all things whatsoever the Lord commanded him, so did he.
17 Boye, Mongombo etelemisamaki na mokolo ya liboso ya sanza ya liboso na mobu ya mibale.
And it came to pass in the first month, in the second year after their going forth out of Egypt, at the new moon, that the tabernacle was set up.
18 Tango Moyize atelemisaki Mongombo, atiaki bivandelo na esika na yango, atiaki bakadre, akotisaki mabaya mpe atelemisaki makonzi;
And Moses set up the tabernacle, and put on the chapiters, and put the bars into their places, and set up the posts.
19 atandaki ndako ya kapo na likolo ya Mongombo mpe atiaki ezipelo na likolo ya ndako ya kapo, ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye Moyize.
And he stretched out the curtains over the tabernacle, and put the veil of the tabernacle on it above as the Lord commanded Moses.
20 Moyize azwaki bitando nyonso mibale ya mabanga ya Boyokani mpe atiaki yango kati na Sanduku, akangisaki mabaya na Sanduku mpe atiaki esika ya bolimbisi masumu na likolo na yango.
And he took the testimonies, and put them into the ark; and he put the staves by the sides of the ark.
21 Moyize akotisaki Sanduku kati na Mongombo mpe atiaki rido mpo na kokabola Esika ya bule mpe Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule, mpo ete bato bakoka komona Sanduku ya Litatoli te, ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye.
And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and put on [it] the covering of the veil, and covered the ark of the testimony, as the Lord commanded Moses.
22 Moyize atiaki mesa kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani na ngambo ya nor ya Mongombo libanda ya rido;
And he put the table in the tabernacle of witness, on the north side without the veil of the tabernacle.
23 mpe atiaki mapa na molongo, liboso ya Yawe, ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye Moyize.
And he put on it the shewbread before the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses.
24 Atiaki etelemiselo ya minda kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, etalana na mesa, na ngambo ya sude ya Mongombo.
And he put the candlestick into the tabernacle of witness, on the side of the tabernacle toward the south.
25 Apelisaki minda liboso ya Yawe, ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye Moyize.
And he put on it its lamps before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
26 Atiaki etumbelo ya wolo kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani liboso ya rido,
And he put the golden altar in the tabernacle of witness before the veil;
27 mpe atumbaki likolo na yango ansa ya solo kitoko, ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye Moyize.
and he burnt on it incense of composition, as the Lord commanded Moses.
28 Bongo atiaki rido na ekotelo ya Mongombo.
29 Atiaki etumbelo ya mbeka ya kotumba pembeni ya ekuke ya Mongombo, Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, abonzaki likolo na yango bambeka ya kotumba mpe makabo ya mbuma, ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye Moyize.
And he put the altar of the burnt-offerings by the doors of the tabernacle.
30 Atiaki sani mpo na komipetola na kati-kati ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpe etumbelo mpe atiaki kati na yango mayi ya kosukola.
31 Moyize, Aron mpe bana mibali ya Aron basalelaki yango mpo na kosukola maboko mpe makolo na bango.
And he set up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar; and Moses accomplished all the works.
32 Bazalaki komisukola tango nyonso bazalaki kokota na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani to kopusana pembeni ya etumbelo, ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye Moyize.
33 Moyize atelemisaki lopango pembeni-pembeni ya Mongombo mpe ya etumbelo, mpe atiaki rido na ekuke ya lopango. Ezali boye nde Moyize asilisaki mosala.
34 Lipata ezipaki Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpe nkembo na Yawe etondaki kati na Mongombo.
And the cloud covered the tabernacle of witness, and the tabernacle was filled with the glory of the Lord.
35 Moyize akokaki lisusu te kokota na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, pamba te lipata evandaki likolo na yango mpe nkembo na Yawe etondaki kati na Mongombo.
And Moses was not able to enter into the tabernacle of testimony, because the cloud overshadowed it, and the tabernacle was filled with the glory of the Lord.
36 Tango nyonso lipata ezalaki kolongwa na likolo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kotelema mpo na kokende na mobembo na bango.
And when the cloud went up from the tabernacle, the children of Israel prepared to depart with their baggage.
37 Kasi soki lipata elongwe te, bango mpe bazalaki kolongwa te, bazalaki kozela kino na mokolo oyo lipata ekolongwa.
And if the cloud went not up, they did not prepare to depart, till the day when the cloud went up.
38 Na moyi, lipata ya Yawe ezalaki na likolo ya Mongombo; bongo na butu, moto ezalaki kongala kati na lipata, mpe miso ya bana nyonso ya Isalaele ezalaki komona yango. Esalemaki bongo na mibembo na bango nyonso.
For a cloud was on the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night before all Israel, in all their journeyings.
