Okuva 31
1 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Laba, nnonze Bezaaleeri mutabani wa Uli, muzzukulu wa Kuuli, ow’omu kika kya Yuda;
“Behold, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, from 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 wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge in every craft,
4 okutetenkanya ebintu ebinaakolebwa mu zaabu ne ffeeza n’ekikomo, nga bwe binaafaanana,
in order to design whatever must be fabricated from gold, and silver, and brass,
5 okwola amayinja n’okugategeka, n’okwola emiti, era n’okukola byonna ebyemikono ebya buli ngeri.
from marble, and precious stones, and various woods.
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:
And I have given to him, as his associate, Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, from the tribe of Dan. And I have placed wisdom in the heart of every artisan, so that they may make everything as I have instructed you:
7 “Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, n’Essanduuko ey’Endagaano n’ekibikkako eky’entebe ey’okusaasira, awamu n’ebikozesebwa byonna mu Weema,
the tabernacle of the covenant, and the ark of the testimony, and the propitiatory which is over it, and all the vessels of the tabernacle,
8 emmeeza n’ebigenderako, ekikondo ekya zaabu omuka eky’ettaala n’ebigenderako, n’ekyoto eky’obubaane,
and the table and its vessels, the most pure lampstand with its vessels, and the altars of incense
9 n’ekyoto eky’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebigenderako, n’ebbensani ne kw’etuula;
and of holocaust and all their vessels, the washtub with its base,
10 n’ebyambalo ebyalukibwa obulungi, ebyambalo ebitukuvu ebya Alooni, kabona, n’ebyambalo bya batabani be bye baweererezaamu mu bwakabona;
the holy vestments for the ministry of Aaron the priest, and for his sons, so that they may execute their office of sacred rites,
11 n’amafuta ag’okufukibwa, n’ebyakaloosa akalungi ak’omu Kifo Ekitukuvu. “Byonna babikole nga bwe nakulagira.”
the oil of unction, and the incense of aromatics in the Sanctuary. All the things that I have instructed you, they shall make.”
12 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
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.
“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: See that you keep my Sabbath. For it is a sign between me and you among your generations, 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 my Sabbath, for it is holy to you. Whoever will have polluted it, shall die a death. Whoever will have done any work in it, his soul shall perish from the midst of 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 you shall do work. On the seventh day, it is the Sabbath, a rest sanctified by the Lord. All who will have done work on this day shall die.
16 Noolwekyo abaana ba Isirayiri banaakumanga olunaku lwa Ssabbiiti, nga balujjukira mu mirembe gyabwe gyonna, ng’endagaano etaggwaawo.
Let the sons of Israel keep the Sabbath, and let them celebrate it throughout their generations. It is an everlasting covenant
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.’”
between me and the sons of Israel, and a perpetual sign. For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and in the seventh he ceased from work.”
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.
And the Lord, having completed speaking in this way on Mount Sinai, gave to Moses two stone tablets of testimony, written with the finger of God.
