Eksodosy 40
1 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:
Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Amin’ ny andro voalohany amin’ ny volana voalohany dia atsangano ny tabernakelin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana.
“On the first day of the first month of the new year you must set up the tabernacle, the tent of meeting.
3 Ary ataovy ao ny fiaran’ ny Vavolombelona; dia ahantòny ny efitra lamba hanakona ny fiara.
You must place the ark of the testimony in it, and you must shield the ark with the curtain.
4 Ary ampidiro ny latabatra, ka alaharo izay halahatra eo amboniny; ary ampidiro ny fanaovan-jiro, ka ampireheto ny jiro.
You must bring in the table and set in order the things that belong on it. Then you must bring in the lampstand and set up the lamps.
5 Ary ny alitara volamena fandoroana ditin-kazo manitra dia ataovy eo anoloan’ ny fiaran’ ny Vavolombelona, ary ny varavarana lamba dia ataovy eo amin’ ny varavaran’ ny tabernakely.
You must put the golden incense altar before the ark of the testimony, and you must put the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.
6 Ary ny alitara fandoroana ny fanatitra dorana dia apetraho eo anoloan’ ny tabernakelin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana.
You must put the altar for burnt offerings in front of the entrance to the tabernacle, the tent of meeting.
7 Ary ny tavy dia apetraho eo anelanelan’ ny trano-lay fihaonana sy ny alitara, ka asio rano eo anatiny.
You must put the large basin between the tent of meeting and the altar and you must put water in it.
8 Ary amboary ny kianja manodidina, ka ahantòny ny vavahady lamba eo amin’ ny vavahadin’ ny kianja.
You must set up the courtyard around it, and you must hang up the curtain at the courtyard entrance.
9 Ary alao ny diloilo fanosorana, ka hosory ny tabernakely sy izay rehetra ao, dia hamasino izy mbamin’ ny fanaka rehetra momba azy, ka dia ho masìna izy.
You must take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle and everything that is in it. You must set it apart and all its furnishings to me; then it will be holy.
10 Ary hosory ny alitara fandoroana ny fanatitra dorana sy ny fanaka rehetra momba azy; ary hamasino ny alitara, dia ho masìna indrindra izy.
You must anoint the altar for burnt offerings and all its utensils. You must set apart the altar to me and it will become very holy to me.
11 Ary hosory ny tavy sy ny faladiany, ka hamasino izy.
You must anoint the bronze basin and its base and set it apart to me.
12 Ary ento Arona sy ny zanany hankeo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny trano-lay fihaonana, ka ampandroy amin’ ny rano izy.
You are to bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the tent of meeting and you must wash them with water.
13 Ary ampiakanjoy an’ i Arona ny fitafiana masìna, dia hosory sy hamasino izy, mba ho mpisorona ho Ahy.
You are to clothe Aaron with the garments that are set apart to me, anoint him and set him apart so that he may serve as my priest.
14 Ary ento ny zanany, ka ampiakanjoy azy ny akanjo lava.
You are to bring his sons and clothe them with coats.
15 Ary hosory izy, tahaka ny nanosoranao ny rainy, mba ho mpisorona ho Ahy; ary ny fanosorana azy dia ho fisoronana mandrakizay ho azy hatramin’ ny taranany fara mandimby.
You must anoint them as you anointed their father so that they may serve me as priests. Their anointing will make for them a permanent priesthood throughout their people's generations.”
16 Dia nataon’ i Mosesy izany: araka izay rehetra efa nandidian’ i Jehovah azy no nataony.
This is what Moses did; he followed all that Yahweh had commanded him. He did all these things.
17 Ary tamin’ ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana voalohany tamin’ ny taona faharoa no nananganana ny tabernakely.
So the tabernacle was set up on the first day of the first month in the second year.
18 Ary Mosesy nanangana ny tabernakely, dia nametraka ny faladiany sy nanangana ny zana-kazony, ary nampiditra ny barany sy nanangana ny andriny.
Moses set up the tabernacle, put its bases in place, set up its frames, attached its bars, and set up its pillars and posts.
19 Ary namelatra ny lay teo ambonin’ ny tabernakely izy, ary ny firakotry ny lay nataony teo amboniny, dia araka izay efa nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy.
He spread the covering over the tabernacle and put tent over it, as Yahweh had commanded him.
20 Dia nalainy ny Vavolombelona ka napetrany tao anatin’ ny fiara, ary ny bao dia nataony teo amin’ ny fiara, ary ny rakotra fanaovam-panavotana dia napetrany teo ambonin’ ny fiara.
He took the covenant decrees and put them into the ark. He also placed the poles on the ark and put the atonement lid on it.
21 Ary ny fiara dia nampidiriny tao amin’ ny tabernakely, ka nahantony ny efitra lamba fanakonana hanakona ny fiaran’ ny Vavolombelona, dia araka izay efa nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy.
He brought the ark into the tabernacle. He set up the curtain for it to shield the ark of the testimony, as Yahweh had commanded him.
22 Ary ny latabatra dia napetrany teo amin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana, dia teo amin’ ny lafin’ ny tabernakely avaratra, teo ivelan’ ny efitra lamba.
He put the table into the tent of meeting, on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the curtain.
23 Ary nandahatra mofo teo amboniny teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah izy, dia araka izay efa nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy.
He placed the bread in order on the table before Yahweh, as Yahweh had commanded him.
24 Ary ny fanaovan-jiro dia napetrany teo amin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana, tandrifin’ ny latabatra, teo amin’ ny lafin’ ny tabernakely atsimo.
He put the lampstand into the tent of meeting, across from the table, on the south side of the tabernacle.
25 Ary nampirehitra ny jiro teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah izy, dia araka izay efa nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy.
He lit the lamps before Yahweh, as Yahweh had commanded him.
26 Ary ny alitara volamena dia nataony teo amin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana, teo anoloan’ ny efitra lamba;
He put the golden incense altar into the tent of meeting in front of the curtain.
27 ary nandoro ditin-kazo mani-pofona teo izy, dia araka izay efa nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy.
He burned fragrant incense on it, as Yahweh had commanded him.
28 Ary ny varavarana lamba dia nataony teo amin’ ny varavaran’ ny tabernakely;
He hung the curtain at the tabernacle entrance.
29 ary ny alitara fandoroana ny fanatitra dorana dia napetrany teo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny tabernakelin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana; ary nateriny teo amboniny ny fanatitra dorana sy ny fanatitra hohanina, dia araka izay efa nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy.
He put the altar for the burnt offering at the entrance to the tabernacle, the tent of meeting. He offered on it the burnt offering and the grain offering, as Yahweh had commanded him.
30 Ary ny tavy dia nataony teo anelanelan’ ny trano-lay fihaonana sy ny alitara, ka nasiany rano teo anatiny hanasana.
He placed the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar, and he put water in it for washing.
31 Ary teo no nanasan’ i Mosesy sy Arona ary ny zanany ny tongony aman-tànany.
Moses, Aaron, and his sons washed their hands and their feet from the basin
32 Raha niditra tao amin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana izy, ary raha nanakaiky ny alitara, dia nisasa izy, dia araka izay efa nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy.
whenever they would go into the tent of meeting and whenever they would go up to the altar. They washed themselves, as Yahweh had commanded Moses.
33 Ary natsangany koa ny kianja manodidina ny tabernakely sy ny alitara; ary ny vavahady lamba dia nataony teo amin’ ny vavahadin’ ny kianja. Dia vitan’ i Mosesy ny asa rehetra.
Moses set up the courtyard around the tabernacle and the altar. He set up the curtain at the courtyard entrance. In this way, Moses finished the work.
34 Ary ny rahona nanarona ny trano-lay fihaonana, ary ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah nameno ny tabernakely.
Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and Yahweh's glory filled the tabernacle.
35 Ary Mosesy tsy nahazo niditra tao amin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana, satria ny rahona nitoetra teo amboniny, ary ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah nameno ny tabernakely.
Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and because Yahweh's glory filled the tabernacle.
36 Ary raha niakatra niala tamin’ ny tabernakely ny rahona, dia nifindra ny Zanak’ Isiraely tamin’ ny nandehanany rehetra;
Whenever the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the people of Israel would set out on their journey.
37 fa raha tsy niakatra ny rahona, dia tsy nifindra izy, mandra-pihavin’ izay andro hiakarany.
But if the cloud did not rise up from the tabernacle, then the people would not travel. They would stay until the day that it was lifted up.
38 Fa ny rahon’ i Jehovah dia teo ambonin’ ny tabernakely nony andro, ary nisy afo teo aminy nony alina, teo imason’ ny taranak’ Isiraely rehetra, tamin’ ny nandehanany rehetra.
For Yahweh's cloud was over the tabernacle by day, and his fire was over it by night, in plain view of all the people of Israel throughout their journey.
