Ekoruhe 28

1 Tangohia mai ano ki a koe a Arona, tou tuakana, ratou ko ana tama i roto i nga tama a Iharaira, hei tohunga maku, a Arona ratou ko Natapa, ko Apihu, ko Ereatara, ko Itamara, nga tama a Arona.

AND take thou unto thee Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him, from among the children of Israel, that he may minister unto me in the priest’s office, even Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s sons.

2 Me hanga ano e koe etahi kakahu tapu mo Arona, mo tou tuakana, hei kororia, hei ataahua.

And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty.

3 Me korero ano e koe ki nga ngakau mohio katoa, ki aku i whakaki ai ki te wairua mohio, kia hanga e ratou nga kakahu mo Arona, mo tona whakatapunga, mo tana mahi tohunga ki ahau.

And thou shalt speak unto all that are wise hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron’s garments to consecrate him, that he may minister unto me in the priest’s office.

4 A ko nga kakahu enei e hanga e ratou; he kouma, he epora, he koroka, he koti whakairo, he potae tohunga, he whitiki: na me hanga etahi kakahu tapu mo Arona, mo tou tuakana, ratou ko ana tama, mo tana mahi tohunga ki ahau.

And these are the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a broidered coat, a mitre, and a girdle: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me in the priest’s office.

5 Me tango hoki he koura, he puru, he papura, he ngangana, he rinea pai.

And they shall take gold, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen.

6 A ka hanga te epora ki te koura, ki te puru, ki te papura, ki te ngangana, ki te rinena miro pai; kia tohunga rawa te mahi.

And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, and of purple, of scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cunning work.

7 Kia rua nga wahi i nga pokohiwi, he mea hono ki a raua i nga pito e rua; kia kotahi ai.

It shall have the two shoulderpieces thereof joined at the two edges thereof; and so it shall be joined together.

8 A, ko te whitiki whakairo o te epora, kia kotahi ano te mea e hanga ai raua, kia rite hoki to raua hanganga; he mea koura, puru, papura, ngangana, rinena miro pai.

And the curious girdle of the ephod, which is upon it, shall be of the same, according to the work thereof; even of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.

9 Me tango ano e koe nga kohatu onika e rua, ka tuhi ai i nga ingoa o nga tama a Iharaira ki aua mea:

And thou shalt take two onyx stones, and grave on them the names of the children of Israel:

10 Kia ono nga ingoa o ratou ki tetahi kohatu, me era ingoa atu hoki e ono ki tetahi atu kohatu; kia rite ki o ratou whanautanga.

Six of their names on one stone, and the other six names of the rest on the other stone, according to their birth.

11 Hei te mahi a te kaituhi kohatu tau tuhi i nga ingoa o nga tama a Iharaira ki nga kohatu e rua, kia rite ki te tuhinga o te hiri: me mea e koe kia whakanohoia aua mea ki nga nohoanga koura.

With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, shalt thou engrave the two stones with the names of the children of Israel: thou shalt make them to be set in ouches of gold.

12 A me whakanoho e koe nga kohatu e rua ki nga pokohiwi o te epora, hei kohatu whakamahara mo nga tama a Iharaira: a ka mau o ratou ingoa ki runga ki nga pokohiwi e rua o Arona i te aroaro o Ihowa, hei whakamahara.

And thou shalt put the two stones upon the shoulders of the ephod for stones of memorial unto the children of Israel: and Aaron shall bear their names before the Lord upon his two shoulders for a memorial.

13 Me hanga ano e koe nga nohoanga kohatu ki te koura;

And thou shalt make ouches of gold;

14 Me nga mekameka koura parakore e rua; me whiri tau mahinga i aua mea, ka whakau ai i nga mekameka whiri ki nga nohoanga.

And two chains of pure gold at the ends; of wreathen work shalt thou make them, and fasten the wreathen chains to the ouches.

15 Kia tohunga rawa te hanga o te kouma whakawa, kia rite tau mahinga ki te mahinga o te epora; me hanga e koe taua mea ki te koura, ki te puru, ki te papura, ki te ngangana, ki te rinena miro pai.

And thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment with cunning work; after the work of the ephod thou shalt make it; of gold, of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine twined linen, shalt thou make it.

16 Kia wha ona taha, me rererua; kia kotahi whanganga a te ringa tona roa, kia kotahi whanganga hoki a te ringa tona whanui.

Foursquare it shall be being doubled; a span shall be the length thereof, and a span shall be the breadth thereof.

17 Me whakanoho ano ki taua mea etahi nohoanga kohatu; kia wha nga rarangi kohatu: mo te rarangi tuatahi he harariu, he topaha, he kapakara: ko te rarangi tuatahi tenei.

And thou shalt set in it settings of stones, even four rows of stones: the first row shall be a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this shall be the first row.

18 Mo te rarangi tuarua he emerara, he hapaira, he taimana.

And the second row shall be an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.

19 Mo te rarangi tuatoru he rikuri, he akete, he ametihita.

And the third row a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.

20 Mo te rarangi tuawha he perira, he onika, he hahapa: me whakanoho ki te koura ki te wahi e mau ai.

And the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper: they shall be set in gold in their inclosings.

21 Na ka tekau ma rua nga kohatu me nga ingoa o nga tama a Iharaira; ko te maha kei o ratou ingoa; ko te tuhi hei o te hiri, tenei tangata me tona ingoa, tenei tangata me tona ingoa, rite tonu ki nga iwi kotahi tekau ma rua.

And the stones shall be with the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of a signet; every one with his name shall they be according to the twelve tribes.

22 Me hanga ano e koe ki te koura parakore etahi mekameka, he mahi whiri, mo te kouma, mo nga pito.

And thou shalt make upon the breastplate chains at the ends of wreathen work of pure gold.

23 Me hanga ano e koe etahi mowhiti koura kia rua mo te kouma, ka whakanoho ai i nga mowhiti e rua ki nga pito e rua o te kouma.

And thou shalt make upon the breastplate two rings of gold, and shalt put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.

24 Me whakau ano nga mekameka koura, nga mea whiri, ki nga mowhiti e rua i nga pito o te kouma.

And thou shalt put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings which are on the ends of the breastplate.

25 Ko era pito e rua hoki o nga mekameka whiri e rua, me whakau e koe ki nga nohoanga kohatu e rua, ka whakanoho ai ki nga pokohiwi o te epora, ki te taha ki mua.

And the other two ends of the two wreathen chains thou shalt fasten in the two ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod before it.

26 Me hanga ano etahi mowhiti koura kia rua, ka whakanoho ai ki nga pito e rua o te kouma ki tona remu, ki te taha ki roto whaka te epora.

And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and thou shalt put them upon the two ends of the breastplate in the border thereof, which is in the side of the ephod inward.

27 Me hanga ano hoki e koe etahi atu mowhiti koura kia rua, ka whakanoho ai ki nga pokohiwi e rua o te epora ki te taha ki raro, ki te taha ki mua, ki te ritenga mai ano o tona hononga, ki runga ake o te whitiki whakairo o te epora.

And two other rings of gold thou shalt make, and shalt put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the forepart thereof, over against the other coupling thereof, above the curious girdle of the ephod.

28 Me here ano e ratou te kouma, ko ona mowhiti ki nga mowhiti o te epora, ki etahi miro puru, kia mau ai ki runga ake o te whitiki whakairo o te epora, kei takoto ke hoki te kouma i te epora.

And they shall bind the breastplate by the rings thereof unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and that the breastplate be not loosed from the ephod.

29 A ka mau nga ingoa o nga tama a Iharaira ki te ngakau o Arona, ara ki te kouma o te whakawa, ina haere ia ki te wahi tapu, hei whakamahara ki te aroaro o Ihowa i nga ra katoa.

And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the holy place, for a memorial before the Lord continually.

30 Me whakanoho ano hoki e koe nga Urimi me nga Tumime ki te kouma whakawa; a hei te ngakau o Arona aua mea, ina haere ki te aroaro o Ihowa: a ka mau tonu ki te ngakau o Arona te whakawa o nga tama a Iharaira i te aroaro o Ihowa.

And thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim and the Thummim; and they shall be upon Aaron’s heart, when he goeth in before the Lord: and Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart before the Lord continually.

31 Me hanga ano e koe te koroka o te epora, hei te puru anake.

And thou shalt make the robe of the ephod all of blue.

32 Me whakakohao a runga, i waenganui: me whakawhaiwhiri ano ki te mea whatu tona kohao a huri noa, kia rite ki te kohao o te pukupuku, kei pakaru.

And there shall be an hole in the top of it, in the midst thereof: it shall have a binding of woven work round about the hole of it, as it were the hole of an habergeon, that it be not rent.

33 A i te remu i raro me hanga e koe etahi pamekaranete ki te mea puru, papura, ngangana, hei te remu a huri noa; me etahi pere koura ki nga takiwa o aua mea a huri noa:

And beneath upon the hem of it thou shalt make pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, round about the hem thereof; and bells of gold between them round about:

34 He pere koura he pamekaranete, he pere koura he pamekaranete, ki te remu o te koroka a huri noa.

A golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, upon the hem of the robe round about.

35 A me kakahu taua mea e Arona ina minita: a ka rangona tona tangi ina haere ki roto, ki te wahi tapu, ki te aroaro o Ihowa, ina puta mai hoki ki waho kei mate ia.

And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his sound shall be heard when he goeth in unto the holy place before the Lord, and when he cometh out, that he die not.

36 Me hanga ano e koe tetahi paraharaha ki te koura parakore, tuhia iho, he tuhi hiri ano, HE TAPU KI A IHOWA.

And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it, like the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.

37 A me whakanoho e koe ki te tau puru, kia mau ai ki te potae tohunga; hei te taha ki mua o te potae.

And thou shalt put it on a blue lace, that it may be upon the mitre; upon the forefront of the mitre it shall be.

38 A ka mau tena ki te rae o Arona, kia mauria ai e Arona te kino o nga mea tapu e whakatapua e nga tama a Iharaira i a ratou hoatutanga tapu katoa; a ka mau tonu tena ki tona rae, kia manakohia ai ratou i te aroaro o Ihowa.

And it shall be upon Aaron’s forehead, that Aaron may bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children of Israel shall hallow in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always upon his forehead, that they may be accepted before the Lord.

39 A me whakairo e koe ki te mumu te koti rinena pai, me hanga ano te potae tohunga ki te rinena pai: hei te mea i hanga ki te ngira te mea e hanga ai e koe te whitiki.

And thou shalt embroider the coat of fine linen, and thou shalt make the mitre of fine linen, and thou shalt make the girdle of needlework.

40 Me hanga ano etahi koti mo nga tama a Arona, me hanga ano etahi whitiki mo ratou, me hanga hoki etahi potae mo ratou, hei kororia, hei ataahua.

And for Aaron’s sons thou shalt make coats, and thou shalt make for them girdles, and bonnets shalt thou make for them, for glory and for beauty.

41 Ka whakakakahu atu ai ki a Arona, ki tou tuakana, ratou ko ana tama; na ka whakawahi koe i a ratou, ka whakatohunga hoki i a ratou, ka whakatapu hoki i a ratou, kia mahi, tohunga ai ki ahau.

And thou shalt put them upon Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him; and shalt anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, that they may minister unto me in the priest’s office.

42 Me hanga ano etahi tarau rinena mo ratou, hei kakahu mo nga wahi takoto tahanga o ratou; mo te hope a tae noa ki nga huha:

And thou shalt make them linen breeches to cover their nakedness; from the loins even unto the thighs they shall reach:

43 A hei kakahu ena mo Arona, mo ana tama, ina haere ki roto ki te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, ina whakatata ranei ki te aata, ki te minita i roto i te wahi tapu; kei whai hara, a ka mate: hei tikanga pumau tenei mona, mo ona uri hoki i muri i a ia.

And they shall be upon Aaron, and upon his sons, when they come in unto the tabernacle of the congregation, or when they come near unto the altar to minister in the holy place; that they bear not iniquity, and die: it shall be a statute for ever unto him and his seed after him.
