Ekoruhe 25

1 Na ka korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi, ka mea,

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 Korero atu ki nga tama a Iharaira, kia maua mai e ratou he whakahere maku: me tango e koutou te whakahere maku i nga tangata katoa e hihiko noa mai ana o ratou ngakau.

“Speak to the sons of Israel, so that they may take the first-fruits to me. You shall accept these from every man who offers of his own accord.

3 Ko te whakahere ano tenei e tangohia e koutou i a ratou; he koura, he hiriwa, he parahi,

Now these are the things that you must accept: Gold, and silver, and brass,

4 Me te kakahu puru, me te papaura, me te ngangana, me te rinena pai, me te huruhuru koati,

hyacinth and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine linen, the hair of goats,

5 Me nga hiako hipi kua oti te whakawhero, me nga hiako pateri, me etahi rakau, he hitimi;

and the skins of rams, dyed red, and skins of violet, and setim wood,

6 Te hinu mo te whakamarama, nga mea kakara mo te hinu whakawahi, mo te whakakakara reka hoki,

oil to prepare lights, aromatics as ointments and sweet-smelling incense,

7 Nga kohatu onika, me nga kohatu hei whakanoho ki te epora, ki te kouma.

onyx stones and gems to adorn the ephod as well as the breastplate.

8 A kia hanga e ratou he wahi tapu moku; kia noho ai ahau i waenganui i a ratou.

And they shall make a sanctuary for me, and I will live in their midst.

9 Kia rite a koutou e hanga ai ki nga mea katoa e whakakitea nei e ahau ki a koe, ki te tauira o te tapenakara, ki te tauira hoki o ona mea katoa.

According to exact likeness of the tabernacle, and all of the vessels for its rituals, that I will reveal to you, so shall you make it.

10 Me hanga ano hoki e ratou he aaka, ki te hitimi te rakau: kia rua nga whatianga me te hawhe te roa, kia kotahi whatianga me te hawhe te whanui, a kia kotahi whatianga me te hawhe te teitei.

Join together an ark of setim wood, whose length shall hold two and one half cubits; the width, one and one half cubits; the height, likewise, one and one half cubits.

11 A me whakakikorua e koe ki te koura parakore; me whakakikorua e koe taua mea, a roto, a waho, me hanga ano hoki e koe he niao koura a tawhio noa.

And you shall overlay it with the finest gold, inside and out. And over it, you shall fashion a gold crown all around,

12 Kia wha ano nga mowhiti koura e whakarewaia mo taua aaka, ka whakanoho ai ki nga poti e wha; kia rua mowhiti ki tetahi taha ona, kia rua mowhiti ki tetahi taha ona.

and four gold rings, which you shall set into the four corners of the ark. Let two rings be on one side and two on the other.

13 Me hanga ano e koe etahi rakau amo, ki te hitimi te rakau, ka whakakikorua hoki ki te koura;

Likewise, you shall make bars of setim wood and cover them with gold.

14 Ka kuhu ai i nga rakau amo ki roto ki nga mowhiti i nga taha o te aaka, kia ai aua mea hei maunga mo te aaka.

And you shall put them through the rings that are in the sides of the ark, so that it may be carried on them.

15 Hei nga mowhiti o te aaka nga amo mau ai; kaua e unuhia ki waho.

These must always be in the rings, neither shall they ever be drawn out of them.

16 A me hoatu e koe ki roto ki te aaka te whakaaturanga e hoatu e ahau ki a koe.

And you shall place the testimony, which I will give to you, in the ark.

17 Me hanga ano e koe te taupoki ki te koura parakore: kia rua nga whatianga me te hawhe tona roa, kia kotahi hoki whatianga me te hawhe tona whanui.

You shall also make a propitiatory of the finest gold. Its length shall hold two and one half cubits, and the width, one and one half cubits.

18 Me hanga ano etahi kerupima, kia rua, he mea patu te koura e hanga ai aua mea a puta noa, mo nga pito e rua o te taupoki.

Likewise, you shall make two Cherubim of formed gold, on both sides of the oracle.

19 Me hanga hoki tetahi kerupi ki tetahi pito, me tetahi kerupi ki tetahi pito: me hono nga kerupima ki te taupoki, ki ona pito e rua.

Let one Cherub be on the one side, and the other be on the other.

20 A ka roha whakarunga nga parirau o nga kerupima, me te uhi ano i te taupoki ki o raua parirau, ka anga ano o raua mata ki a raua; ka anga ki te taupoki nga mata o nga kerupima.

And let them cover both sides of the propitiatory, spreading their wings and covering the oracle, and let them look out toward one another, their faces being turned toward the propitiatory, with which the ark is to be covered,

21 A me whakanoho e koe te taupoki ki runga ki te aaka; me hoatu ano ki roto ki te aaka te whakaaturanga e hoatu e ahau ki a koe.

in which you will place the testimony that I will give to you.

22 A ka tutaki ahau ki a koe ki reira, ka korerotia ano ki a koe i runga i te taupoki i waenganui i nga kerupima e rua, i era i runga i te aaka o te whakaaturanga, nga mea katoa e whakahau ai ahau ki a koe mo nga tama a Iharaira.

From there, I will warn you and speak to you, above the propitiatory and from the middle of the two Cherubim, which will be over the ark of the testimony, about everything that I will command of the sons of Israel through you.

23 Me hanga ano e koe tetahi tepu, ki te hitimi te rakau: kia rua nga whatianga te roa, kia kotahi whatianga te whanui, kia kotahi whatianga me te hawhe te teitei.

You shall also make a table of setim wood, having two cubits of length, and one cubit in width, and one cubit and one half cubits in height.

24 Me whakakikorua taua mea ki te koura parakore, ka hanga ai i tetahi niao koura mona a tawhio noa.

And you shall overlay it with the purest gold. And you shall make it with a gold lip all around,

25 Me hanga ano he awhi mo taua mea, hei te whanui ringa a tawhio noa; me hanga ano he niao koura mo tona awhi a tawhio noa.

and for the lip itself an engraved crown, four fingers high, and above it another little gold crown.

26 Me hanga ano etahi mowhiti koura, kia wha, mo taua mea, ka whakanoho ai i nga mowhiti ki nga poti e wha i ona waewae e wha.

Likewise, you shall prepare four gold rings and set them in the four corners of the same table, over each foot.

27 Hei te taha tonu ake o te awhi nga mowhiti, hei kuhunga atu mo nga amo hei maunga mo te tepu.

Under the crown, there shall be gold rings, so that the bars may be put through them and the table may be carried.

28 He hitimi te rakau e hanga ai e koe nga amo; me whakakikorua ano ki te koura; a ka ai aua mea hei maunga mo te tepu.

Likewise, the bars themselves you shall make of setim wood, and surround them with gold, to lift up the table.

29 Me hanga ano ona rihi, ona koko, ona kapu, me nga peihana mo nga ringihanga: me hanga ki te koura parakore.

You shall also prepare small cups, as well as bowls, censers, and measuring cups, with which the libations shall be offered, out of the purest gold.

30 Me whakatakoto tonu te taro aroaro ki te tepu, ki toku aroaro.

And you shall place upon the table the bread of the presence, in my sight always.

31 Me hanga ano te turanga rama ki te koura parakore: me patu te mahina o te turanga rama tae noa ki tona take, ki ona peka; ko ona kapu, ko ona puku, me ona puawai he kotahi me ia.

You shall also make a lampstand, formed from the finest gold, along with its stem and arms, its bowl and little spheres, as well as the lilies proceeding from it.

32 A kia ono nga peka e puta ake i ona taha; e toru nga peka o te turanga rama i tetahi taha, e toru hoki nga peka o te turanga rama i tetahi taha:

Six branches shall go out from the sides: three out of one side and three out of the other.

33 Kia toru nga kapu, he mea rite ki te puawai aramona, te puku, me te puawai, ki te peka kotahi; me nga kapu e toru, he mea rite ki te puawai aramona ki tetahi atu peka, te puku, me te puawai: me pera tonu i nga peka e ono e puta ake ana i te tura nga rama.

Three bowls, the size of nuts, shall be on each branch, and a little sphere with it, and a lily. And three similar bowls, in the likeness of nuts, shall be on the other branch, and a little sphere with it, and a lily. This shall be the form of the six branches, which are to proceed from the stem.

34 Kia wha ia nga kapu o te turanga rama, kia rite ki te puawai aramona, te puku, me te puawai, o tetahi, o tetahi.

Then, in the lampstand itself, there shall be four bowls, the size of nuts, and each with little spheres and lilies.

35 A e rua ona peka, kia kotahi puku o raro ake, he mea kotahi; e rua ona peka, kia kotahi puku o raro ake, he mea kotahi; e rua ona peka, kia kotahi puku o raro ake, he mea kotahi ano, o nga peka e ono e puta mai ana i te turanga rama.

Little spheres under two branches in three places, which together make six, shall proceed from one of the stems.

36 No te mea kotahi nga puku, nga peka: ko taua mea katoa, he mea patu, kotahi tonu, he korua parakore.

Thus both the little spheres and the branches shall be made out of the same thing: entirely formed from the purest gold.

37 Me hanga ona rama e whitu: a me tahu ona rama, hei whakamarama i tona hangaitanga atu.

You shall also make seven lamps, and you shall place them upon the lampstand, so that they may give light in every direction.

38 Me koura parakore ano ona kuku me ona oko ngarahu.

Likewise, the candle snuffers, and the place where the candles will be extinguished, shall be made from the purest gold.

39 Kia kotahi taranata koura parakore e hanga ai taua mea, me ena oko katoa.

The entire weight of the candlestick, with all its parts, shall hold one talent of the purest gold.

40 Kia tupato ano kia hanga aua mea kia rite ki te tauira i whakakitea ki a koe i te maunga.

Observe, and then make it according to the example that was shown to you on the mountain.”
