Okuva 31
1 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 “Laba, nnonze Bezaaleeri mutabani wa Uli, muzzukulu wa Kuuli, ow’omu kika kya Yuda;
See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Chur, 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, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
4 okutetenkanya ebintu ebinaakolebwa mu zaabu ne ffeeza n’ekikomo, nga bwe binaafaanana,
To devise works of art, to work in gold, and in silver, and in copper,
5 okwola amayinja n’okugategeka, n’okwola emiti, era n’okukola byonna ebyemikono ebya buli ngeri.
And in the cutting of stones, to set them, and in the carving of wood, to work in all manner of workmanship.
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 behold, I have also given with him Aholiab, the son of Achissamach, of the tribe of Dan, and in the heart of all that are wise-hearted have l put wisdom; and they shall make all that I have commanded thee;
7 “Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, n’Essanduuko ey’Endagaano n’ekibikkako eky’entebe ey’okusaasira, awamu n’ebikozesebwa byonna mu Weema,
The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and the cover that is thereupon, 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, and the pure candlestick with all its vessels, and the altar of incense;
9 n’ekyoto eky’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebigenderako, n’ebbensani ne kw’etuula;
And the altar of burnt-offering with all its vessels, and the laver and its foot;
10 n’ebyambalo ebyalukibwa obulungi, ebyambalo ebitukuvu ebya Alooni, kabona, n’ebyambalo bya batabani be bye baweererezaamu mu bwakabona;
And the cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister therein;
11 n’amafuta ag’okufukibwa, n’ebyakaloosa akalungi ak’omu Kifo Ekitukuvu. “Byonna babikole nga bwe nakulagira.”
And the anointing oil, and the incense of spices for the holy place: all as I have commanded thee shall they do.
12 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
And the Lord said unto Moses as followeth,
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.
And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Above all, my sabbaths shall ye keep; for a sign it is between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the Lord who doth sanctify you.
14 “‘Munaakuumanga Ssabbiiti, kubanga lunaku lutukuvu. Buli anaaluweebuulanga waakufa; ne buli anaakolanga omulimu gwonna ku lunaku olwo waakuggibwa mu bantu be, attibwe.
And ye shall keep the sabbath, for it is holy unto you; every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death; for whosoever doeth any work thereon, that soul shall 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.
Six days may work be done; but on the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord: whosoever doeth any work on the sabbath-day, shall surely be put to death.
16 Noolwekyo abaana ba Isirayiri banaakumanga olunaku lwa Ssabbiiti, nga balujjukira mu mirembe gyabwe gyonna, ng’endagaano etaggwaawo.
And the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual 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 children of Israel it shall be a sign for ever; for in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, and 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.
And he gave unto Moses, when he had finished speaking with him upon mount Sinai, the two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, inscribed with the finger of God.
