2 Munaakolanga emirimu mu nnaku omukaaga; naye olunaku olw’omusanvu lunaabanga Lwassabbiiti, lutukuvu, munaaluwummulanga awali Mukama. Buli anaakoleranga omulimu ku lunaku olwo anattibwanga.
[Each week] you may work for six days, but on the seventh day you must rest. It is a sacred day, dedicated to Yahweh. Anyone who does any work on the seventh day must be executed.
3 Temukumanga muliro mu nnyumba zammwe ku lunaku Lwassabbiiti.”
Do not [even] light a fire in your homes on days of rest.”

All the Israeli men and women who wanted to brought these things to offer them to Yahweh, for doing the work that he had commanded Moses/me to do.
30 Awo Musa n’agamba abaana ba Isirayiri nti, “Muwulire. Mukama alonze Bezaaleeri mutabani wa Uli, muzzukulu wa Kuuli, ow’omu kika kya Yuda.
Moses/I said to the Israeli people, “Listen carefully. Yahweh has chosen Bezalel, the son of Uri and grandson of Hur, from the tribe of Judah.
31 Mukama amujjuzza Omwoyo we, n’obusobozi, n’amagezi, n’okuteteenkanya, n’okutegeera, awamu n’obukozi obwa buli ngeri;
Yahweh has enabled his Spirit to completely control Bezalel and has given him ability and enabled him to know how to do very skilled work.

He can engrave skillful designs in gold, silver, and bronze.

Yahweh has also given to him and to Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, from the tribe of Dan, the ability to teach their skills to others.
35 Abajjuzza amagezi ag’obukugu mu mitima gyabwe okukola eby’emikono ebya buli ngeri ng’ebikolebwa abayiiya amajjolobera, oba abasala amayinja, oba abatunzi b’emidalizo n’ebimuli mu wuzi eza bbululu, n’eza kakobe n’emyufu mu bitambaala ebya linena omulungi, oba abalusi, oba abakugu abakola ebintu byonna ebya buli ngeri n’abatetenkanya amajjolobera.”
