Okuva 31
1 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
Then the LORD said to Moses,
2 “Laba, nnonze Bezaaleeri mutabani wa Uli, muzzukulu wa Kuuli, ow’omu kika kya Yuda;
“See, I have called by name Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
3 era mmujjuzza Omwoyo wa Katonda, n’okumanya, n’obusobozi n’amagezi mu kukola ebitali bimu ebyemikono
And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability, and knowledge in all kinds of craftsmanship,
4 okutetenkanya ebintu ebinaakolebwa mu zaabu ne ffeeza n’ekikomo, nga bwe binaafaanana,
to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze,
5 okwola amayinja n’okugategeka, n’okwola emiti, era n’okukola byonna ebyemikono ebya buli ngeri.
to cut gemstones for settings, and to carve wood, so that he may be a master of every craft.
6 Ate mmulondeddeko Okoliyaabu mutabani wa Akisamaki, ow’omu kika kya Ddaani, okumuyamba. “Era abakugu abakola ebintu byonna ebya buli ngeri, mbawadde amagezi okukola bino byonna bye nkulagidde:
Moreover, I have selected Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, as his assistant. I have also given skill to all the craftsmen, that they may fashion all that I have commanded you:
7 “Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, n’Essanduuko ey’Endagaano n’ekibikkako eky’entebe ey’okusaasira, awamu n’ebikozesebwa byonna mu Weema,
the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the Testimony and the mercy seat upon it, and all the other furnishings of the tent—
8 emmeeza n’ebigenderako, ekikondo ekya zaabu omuka eky’ettaala n’ebigenderako, n’ekyoto eky’obubaane,
the table with its utensils, the pure gold lampstand with all its utensils, the altar of incense,
9 n’ekyoto eky’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebigenderako, n’ebbensani ne kw’etuula;
the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin with its stand—
10 n’ebyambalo ebyalukibwa obulungi, ebyambalo ebitukuvu ebya Alooni, kabona, n’ebyambalo bya batabani be bye baweererezaamu mu bwakabona;
as well as the woven garments, both the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons to serve as priests,
11 n’amafuta ag’okufukibwa, n’ebyakaloosa akalungi ak’omu Kifo Ekitukuvu. “Byonna babikole nga bwe nakulagira.”
in addition to the anointing oil and fragrant incense for the Holy Place. They are to make them according to all that I have commanded you.”
12 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
And the LORD said to Moses,
13 “Tegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri nti, Munaateekwanga okukuuma Ssabbiiti zange, kubanga ako ke kabonero akanaabeeranga wakati wammwe nange mu mirembe gyammwe gyonna, mulyoke mumanye nga Nze Mukama, Nze mbatukuza.
“Tell the Israelites, ‘Surely you must keep My Sabbaths, for this will be a sign between Me and you for the generations to come, so that you may know that I am the LORD who sanctifies you.
14 “‘Munaakuumanga Ssabbiiti, kubanga lunaku lutukuvu. Buli anaaluweebuulanga waakufa; ne buli anaakolanga omulimu gwonna ku lunaku olwo waakuggibwa mu bantu be, attibwe.
Keep the Sabbath, for it is holy to you. Anyone who profanes it must surely be put to death. Whoever does any work on that day must be cut off from among his people.
15 Emirimu ginaakolwanga mu nnaku mukaaga, naye olunaku olw’omusanvu ye Ssabbiiti ey’okuwummula, lunaku lwa Mukama lutukuvu. Buli anaakolanga omulimu ku lunaku lwa Ssabbiiti wa kuttibwa.
For six days work may be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of complete rest, holy to the LORD. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day must surely be put to death.
16 Noolwekyo abaana ba Isirayiri banaakumanga olunaku lwa Ssabbiiti, nga balujjukira mu mirembe gyabwe gyonna, ng’endagaano etaggwaawo.
The Israelites must keep the Sabbath, celebrating it as a permanent covenant for the generations to come.
17 Kanaabeeranga kabonero wakati wange n’abaana ba Isirayiri emirembe gyonna, akalaga nti Mukama yakola eggulu n’ensi mu nnaku mukaaga, ne ku lunaku olw’omusanvu n’alekeraawo okukola, n’awummula.’”
It is a sign between Me and the Israelites forever; for in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, but on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed.’”
18 Awo Mukama bwe yamaliriza okwogera ne Musa ku lusozi Sinaayi, n’awa Musa ebipande bibiri eby’amayinja, eby’Endagaano Katonda gye yawandiika n’engalo ye, ye kennyini.
When the LORD had finished speaking with Moses on Mount Sinai, He gave him the two tablets of the Testimony, tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God.
