Ekoruhe 27

1 Me hanga ano e koe tetahi aata, ki te hitimi te rakau, kia rima nga whatianga te roa, kia rima whatianga te whanui; kia tapawha te aata: kia toru hoki nga whatianga te teitei.

“You are to build an altar of acacia wood. The altar must be square, five cubits long, five cubits wide, and three cubits high.

2 Me hanga ona haona ki nga koki e wha: kia kotahi te rakau o taua mea, o ona haona: me whakakikorua ano ki te parahi.

Make a horn on each of its four corners, so that the horns are of one piece, and overlay it with bronze.

3 Me hanga ano ona takotoranga mo ona pungarehu, me ona koko pungarehu, me ona peihana, me ona matau, me ona oko ngarahu: me hanga ona mea katoa ki te parahi.

Make all its utensils of bronze—its pots for removing ashes, its shovels, its sprinkling bowls, its meat forks, and its firepans.

4 Me hanga ano tona pae kupenga ki te parahi, he mea ripekapeka; a me hanga ki runga i taua mea ripekapeka nga mowhiti parahi e wha ki ona pito e wha.

Construct for it a grate of bronze mesh, and make a bronze ring at each of the four corners of the mesh.

5 A me whakanoho taua mea ki raro i te awhi o te aata, ki raro iho, kia takapu ai taua mea ripekapeka ki waenganui o te aata.

Set the grate beneath the ledge of the altar, so that the mesh comes halfway up the altar.

6 Me hanga etahi amo mo te aata, he amo hitimi, ka whakakikorua hoki ki te parahi.

Additionally, make poles of acacia wood for the altar and overlay them with bronze.

7 A ka kuhua nga amo ki nga mowhiti, hei nga taha e rua o te aata nga amo, hei amo.

The poles are to be inserted into the rings so that the poles are on two sides of the altar when it is carried.

8 Kia tuwhera kau a roto, me hanga e koe ki te papa: kia rite tau e hanga ai ki tera i whakakitea ki a koe ki te maunga.

Construct the altar with boards so that it is hollow. It is to be made just as you were shown on the mountain.

9 Me hanga ano te marae o te tapenakara: hei te rinena miro pai he pa mo te taha ki te tonga whaka te tonga; kia kotahi rau whatianga te roa mo tetahi taha:

You are also to make a courtyard for the tabernacle. On the south side of the courtyard make curtains of finely spun linen, a hundred cubits long on one side,

10 Ko nga pou kia rua tekau, ko nga turanga o aua mea kia rua tekau, me parahi; me hiriwa ia nga matau o nga pou, me nga awhi.

with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases, and silver hooks and bands on the posts.

11 Me nga pa mo te taha ki te raki kia kotahi rau whatianga te roa, me nga pou e rua tekau, me nga turanga e rua tekau, he parahi: me nga matau hiriwa o nga pou, me nga awhi hiriwa.

Likewise there are to be curtains on the north side, a hundred cubits long, with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases, and with silver hooks and bands on the posts.

12 Me nga pa mo te whanui o te marae ki te taha ki te hauauru kia rima tekau whatianga: kia kotahi tekau nga pou, me nga turanga kotahi tekau.

The curtains on the west side of the courtyard shall be fifty cubits wide, with ten posts and ten bases.

13 Kia rima tekau hoki whatianga te whanui o te marae ki te taha ki te rawhiti whaka te rawhiti.

The east side of the courtyard, toward the sunrise, is to be fifty cubits wide.

14 Kia tekau ma rima whatianga nga pa o tetahi taha o te kuwaha, kia toru nga pou, kia toru hoki nga turanga.

Make the curtains on one side fifteen cubits long, with three posts and three bases,

15 Kia tekau ma rima hoki whatianga o nga pa o tera taha: kia toru nga pou, kia toru hoki nga turanga.

and the curtains on the other side fifteen cubits long, with three posts and three bases.

16 Kia rua tekau hoki whatianga o te pa mo te kuwaha o te marae, he puru, he papura, he ngangana, he rinena miro pai, he mea whakairo ki te ngira: kia wha hoki nga pou, kia wha hoki nga turanga.

The gate of the courtyard shall be twenty cubits long, with a curtain embroidered with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and finely spun linen. It shall have four posts and four bases.

17 Me whakawhaiawhi nga pou katoa o te marae a taka noa ki te hiriwa; me hiriwa nga matau, me parahi nga turanga.

All the posts around the courtyard shall have silver bands, silver hooks, and bronze bases.

18 Kia kotahi rau whatianga te roa o te marae, kia rima tekau hoki te whanui i nga wahi katoa, kia rima hoki whatianga te teitei, ki te rinena miro pai, me parahi hoki nga turanga.

The entire courtyard shall be a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide, with curtains of finely spun linen five cubits high, and with bronze bases.

19 Me parahi nga oko katoa o te tapenakara mo nga mahi katoa o reira, nga titi katoa o reira, me nga titi katoa o te marae.

All the utensils of the tabernacle for every use, including all its tent pegs and the tent pegs of the courtyard, shall be made of bronze.

20 Me whakahau ano e koe nga tama a Iharaira kia kawea mai ki a koe he hinu oriwa, he mea parakore, he mea tuki, mo te whakamarama, kia ka tonu ai te rama.

And you are to command the Israelites to bring you pure oil of pressed olives for the light, to keep the lamps burning continually.

21 Me whakapai e Arona ratou ko ana tama taua mea i roto i te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, i waho o te arai e iri ana i mua mai o te whakaaturanga, i te ahiahi a tae noa ki te ata, ki te aroaro o Ihowa; hei tikanga tenei mo ake tonu atu, ma o rato u whakatupuranga, mo nga tama a Iharaira.

In the Tent of Meeting, outside the veil that is in front of the Testimony, Aaron and his sons are to tend the lamps before the LORD from evening until morning. This is to be a permanent statute for the Israelites for the generations to come.
