Okuva 36
1 “Bezaaleeri ne Okoliyaabu ne buli musajja mukugu yenna, Mukama gw’awadde obusobozi n’amagezi okumanya okukola omulimu gwonna ku kuzimba eweema ya Mukama, bajja kukola nga Mukama bw’alagidde.”
“Bezalel and Oholiab, and all the other men to whom Yahweh has given ability and enabled them to understand how to do all the work to make the Sacred Tent, must make everything just as Yahweh has commanded.”
2 Awo Musa n’ayita Bezaaleeri ne Okoliyaabu, ne buli mukugu yenna Mukama gwe yali awadde amagezi n’obusobozi, era nga yeeyagalidde yekka okukola.
So Moses/I summoned Bezalel and Oholiab and all the other skilled men to whom Yahweh had given special ability and who wanted to do some of the work.
3 Musa n’abakwasa ebirabo byonna abaana ba Isirayiri bye baali batonedde Mukama nga bwe baali beeyagalidde eby’okukozesa eweema ya Mukama. Abantu ne bongera okuleeta ku byabwe ebya kyeyagalire buli nkya.
Moses/I gave them all the things that the people had brought as offerings to Yahweh for making the Sacred Tent. But the people continued bringing more things every morning.
4 Awo abakozi bali abakugu abaali bakola eweema ya Mukama ne bava ku mirimu gyabwe,
As a result, the skilled men who were doing various things to make the Sacred Tent came to Moses/me
5 ne bajja eri Musa ne bamugamba nti, “Ebirabo abantu bye baleese bisukkiridde obungi ku ebyo ebyetaagibwa okumala omulimu Mukama gwe yalagira okukolebwa.”
and said, “The people are bringing more than we need to do the work that Yahweh has commanded us!”
6 Awo Musa n’awa ekiragiro ne kibunyisibwa mu lusiisira lwonna nti, “Tewabaawo musajja oba mukazi ayongera okuleeta ekiweebwayo olw’omulimu gw’Eweema ya Mukama.” Bwe batyo abantu ne bagaanibwa okwongera okuwaayo;
So Moses/I gave the skilled men this message that was proclaimed throughout the camp: “No one should bring anything more as an offering to make the Sacred Tent!” When the people [heard that], they did not bring anything more.
7 kubanga ebyo abakozi bye baalina byali bimala omulimu ogwo era n’okufikkawo.
What they had already brought was enough to do all the work. [In fact], it was more than was needed!
8 Awo bannakinku bonna mu basajja abakozi ne bakola Eweema ya Mukama n’emitanda kkumi egya linena omunyoole omulungi ennyo, nga mulimu n’ebya bbululu, ne kakobe, ne myufu, ne bakerubi nga batungiddwamu n’amagezi mangi.
All the most skilled men among the workmen made the Sacred Tent. They made it from ten strips of fine linen, and carefully embroidered it using blue, purple, and red yarn/thread to make figures that resembled the winged creatures.
9 Emitanda gyonna gyali gyenkanankana; ng’omutanda ogumu guweza obuwanvu mita kkumi na bbiri n’ekitundu, ate obugazi mita emu ne desimoolo munaana.
Each strip was (14 yards/twelve meters) long and (2 yards/1.8 meters) wide.
10 Baagatta emitanda etaano nga bagisengese, gumu ku gunnaagwo, n’emitanda emirala etaano nagyo ne bagigatta bwe batyo.
They sewed five strips together to make one set, and they sewed the other five strips together to make the other set.
11 Ne batunga eŋŋango eza bbululu ku mukugiro gw’omutanda gw’entimbe ogukomererayo mu kitundu ekimu eky’entimbe etaano, era ne batunga n’eŋŋango endala mu ngeri y’emu ku ludda olulala.
For each set, they made loops of blue [cloth] and fastened them on the outer edge of the strip, at the end of each set.
12 Baatunga eŋŋango amakumi ataano ku mutanda ogumu, era ne batunga eŋŋango endala amakumi ataano ku mukugiro gw’omutanda ku ludda olulala, eŋŋango nga zoolekaganye.
They put 50 loops on the edge of the first set, and 50 loops on the edge of the second set.
13 Ne bakola ebikwaso ebya zaabu amakumi ataano, ne bakwasa wamu enjuuyi zombi ez’emitanda n’ebikwaso; Eweema n’ebeera wamu nga nnamba.
They made 50 gold clasps/fasteners, to fasten both of the sets together. In that way, the inside of the Sacred Tent was [as though it was] one piece.
14 Ne bakola entimbe kkumi na lumu nga zirukiddwa mu bwoya bw’embuzi ne bazibikka ku Weema.
They made a cover for the Sacred Tent from eleven pieces of cloth made from goats’ hair.
15 Entimbe zonna ekkumi n’olumu zaali zenkanankana: ng’obuwanvu mita kkumi na ssatu n’ekitundu, obugazi zaali mita emu n’obutundu munaana.
Each piece of cloth was (15 yards/13.5 meters) long and (2 yards/1.8 meters) wide.
16 Ne bagatta entimbe ttaano wamu ku bwazo, n’entimbe omukaaga nazo ne bazigatta ku bwazo.
They sewed five of these pieces of cloth together to make one set, and they sewed the other six pieces of cloth together to make another set.
17 Ne batunga eŋŋango amakumi ataano ku mukugiro gw’entimbe ekomererayo ku bwazo, n’eŋŋango amakumi ataano endala ku mukugiro gw’entimbe omulala ku bwazo.
They made 100 loops [of blue cloth]. They fastened 50 of them to the outer edge of the one set and they fastened 50 to the outer edge of the other set.
18 Ne bakola ebikwaso eby’ekikomo amakumi ataano, ne babiyisa mu ŋŋango okunyweza enjuuyi zombi ez’entimbe ezo ng’ekintu ekimu.
They made 50 bronze clasps/fasteners and joined the two sets together with them. In that way it formed one cover.
19 Ne bakola ekibikka ku Weema mu maliba g’endiga ennume nga gannyikiddwa mu langi emyufu; okwo ne babikkako amaliba g’ente ey’omu nnyanja.
They made two more covers for the Sacred Tent. They made one from rams’ skins that had been (tanned/dyed red), and they made the top cover from goatskin leather.
20 Awo ne babajja embaawo mu muti gwa akasiya ne baziyimiriza ne zikola entobo ya Weema.
They made frames from acacia wood and set them up [to support the covers for the Sacred Tent].
21 Buli lubaawo lwali mita nnya n’ekitundu obuwanvu, ate ng’obugazi zaali sentimita nkaaga mu musanvu.
Each frame was (15 feet/4.5 meters) long and (27 in./66 cm.) wide.
22 Buli lubaawo baaluteekako obubaawo obuyiseemu bubiri, obw’okukozesa mu kugatta, nga bulekawo amabanga agenkanankana. Embaawo zonna ez’entobo ya Weema bwe baazikola bwe batyo.
They made two projections at the bottom of each frame. These were for fastening the frames to the bases underneath them. Each frame had these projections.
23 Baakola embaawo amakumi abiri ne bazissa ku ludda olw’obukiikaddyo obw’Eweema,
The skilled workmen made twenty frames for the south side of the Sacred Tent.
24 era ne bakola obubya obutono obwa ffeeza amakumi ana, ne babussa wansi w’obubaawo obuyiseemu obubiri ku buli lubaawo.
They made 40 silver bases to go underneath them. Two bases went under each frame. The projections on each frame fit into these bases.
25 Ate ku ludda olw’obukiikakkono olw’Eweema ne bakolerayo embaawo amakumi abiri,
[Similarly], they made 20 frames for the north side of the Sacred Tent.
26 n’entobo eza ffeeza amakumi ana, bbiri nga ziri wansi wa buli lubaawo.
They made 40 silver bases for them also, with two bases for under each frame.
27 Ne bakola embaawo mukaaga, ne baziteeka ku ludda olw’emabega wa Weema, lwe lw’ebugwanjuba;
For the rear of the Sacred Tent, on the west side, they made six frames.
28 era ne bakola embaawo endala bbiri ne bazissa ku nsonda ez’oku ludda olwo olw’ebugwanjuba.
They also made two extra frames, one for each corner of the rear of the Sacred Tent, [to provide extra support].
29 Ku nsonda zino ebbiri, embaawo zombi baazisiba wamu nabansasaana okuviira ddala wansi okutuuka waggulu, ne bazinyweza n’empeta.
The two corner frames were joined from the bottom to the top (OR, joined at both the bottom and the top). At the top of each of the two corner frames they fastened a gold ring for holding the crossbar.
30 Noolwekyo waaliwo embaawo munaana, n’entobo eza ffeeza kkumi na mukaaga, nga buli lubaawo wansi waalwo eriyo bbiri bbiri.
In that way, [for the rear of the Sacred Tent] there were eight frames, and there were 16 bases, two bases under each frame.
31 Ne bakola emikiikiro mu muti gwa akasiya. Emikiikiro etaano ne bagikozesa ku mbaawo eziri ku lusebenju lwa Weema olumu,
The workmen made 15 crossbars from acacia wood.
32 n’emikiikiro etaano ku mbaawo eziri ku lusebenju lwa Weema olulala, n’emikiikiro etaano ne bagikozesa ku mbaawo eziri ku ludda olw’emabega wa Weema olw’ebugwanjuba.
Five of them were for the frames on the north side of the Sacred Tent, five for the south side, and five for the frames at the rear of the Sacred Tent, the west side.
33 Ne bassaayo omulabba nga guyita wakati w’embaawo nga guva ku ludda olumu okutuuka ku ludda olulala.
The crossbars on the north, south, and west sides of the Sacred Tent were fastened to the middle of the frames. The two long crossbars extended from one end of the Sacred Tent to the other, and the crossbar on the west side extended from one side of the Sacred Tent to the other side.
34 Embaawo ne bazibikkako zaabu, era ne bakola empeta eza zaabu ne bazisibisa emikiikiro; n’emikiikiro nagyo ne bagibikkako zaabu.
The workmen covered the frames with gold and fastened gold rings to the poles. The crossbars [were put] into the rings. The crossbars were [also] covered with gold.
35 Baakola eggigi mu wuzi eza bbululu, ne kakobe, ne myufu ne linena omulebevu omulungi alangiddwa; era omukozi omukugu n’atungiramu bakerubi.
They made a curtain from fine white linen. Skilled craftsmen embroidered it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread, making designs [that resembled] the winged creatures.
36 Ne baliwanika n’amalobo aga zaabu ku mpagi nnya ezaabajjibwa mu muti gwa akasiya, nga zibikkiddwako zaabu, era nga zisimbiddwa mu ntobo eza ffeeza.
They suspended/hung the curtain from four posts that were made from acacia [wood] and covered with gold. They set [each] post in a silver base.
37 Ne bakola olutimbe olw’omu mulyango gwa Weema mu wuzi eza bbululu, ne kakobe, ne myufu ne linena omulebevu alangiddwa obulungi.
They made a curtain to [cover] the entrance of the Sacred Tent. They made it from fine linen, and a skilled weaver embroidered it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread.
38 Ne balukolera empagi ttaano nga bazibazze mu muti gwa akasiya, ne baziteekako n’amalobo gaazo. Ne babikka zaabu kungulu ku mpagi ne ku bisiba byazo. Entobo zaazo ettaano ne bazikola mu kikomo.
[To support this curtain], they also made five posts from acacia wood and fastened gold clasps/fasteners to them. They completely covered the posts with gold. They also made a bronze base for each of those posts.
