Ekoruhe 31
1 I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
2 Titiro, kua whakahuatia nei e ahau te ingoa o Petareere, tama a Uri, ko ia nei he tama na Huru, no te iwi o Hura:
'See, I have called by name Bezaleel, son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,
3 Kua whakakiia ano ia e ahau ki te wairua o te Atua, ki te ngakau tupato, ki te whakaaro, ki te mohio, ki nga mahi katoa hoki,
and I fill him [with] the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all work,
4 Hei whakaaro ki nga mahi a te tohunga, hei mahi i te koura, i te hiriwa, i te parahi,
to devise devices to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
5 Mo te whakairo kohatu hoki, mo te whakanoho hoki, mo te whakairo rakau, mo te mahi ano hoki i nga mahi katoa.
and in graving of stone for settings, and in graving of wood to work in all work.
6 Na, tenei ano te hoatu nei e ahau hei hoa mona a Ahoriapa tama a Ahihamaka, no te iwi o Rana: kua whakanohoia ano e ahau he mahara ki nga ngakau o te hunga ngakau mahara katoa, hei hanga i nga mea katoa i whakahaua atu nei e ahau ki a koe;
'And I, lo, I have given with him Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, and in the heart of every wise-hearted one I have given wisdom, and they have made all that which I have commanded thee.
7 I te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, i te aaka o te whakaaturanga, i tona taupoki, i nga mea katoa o te tapenakara,
'The tent of meeting, and the ark of testimony, and the mercy-seat which [is] on it, and all the vessels of the tent,
8 I te tepu, i ona mea, i te turanga parakore o nga rama, i ona mea katoa, i te aata mo te whakakakara,
and the table and its vessels, and the pure candlestick and all its vessels, and the altar of the perfume,
9 I te aata mo te tahunga tinana, i ona mea katoa, i te takotoranga wai raua ko tona turanga.
and the altar of the burnt-offering and all its vessels, and the laver and its base,
10 I nga kakahu mo te mahi minita, i nga kakahu tapu mo Arona, mo te tohunga, i nga kakahu mo ana tama, mo te mahi tohunga,
and the coloured garments, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, for acting as priests in;
11 I te hinu whakawahi, i te whakakakara reka mo te wahi tapu: kia rite ta ratou e mea ai ki nga mea katoa i whakahaua atu e ahau ki a koe.
and the anointing oil, and the perfume of the spices for the sanctuary; according to all that I have commanded thee — they do.'
12 I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
13 Korero ano ki nga tama a Iharaira, mea atu, Me whakarite ano e koutou aku hapati: hei tohu hoki ki waenganui oku, o koutou, i o koutou whakatupuranga: kia mohio ai ko ahau, ko Ihowa, te whakatapu nei i a koutou.
'And thou, speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Only, My sabbaths ye do keep, for it [is] a sign between Me and you, to your generations, to know that I, Jehovah, am sanctifying you;
14 Na me whakarite te hapati; he tapu hoki tena ki a koutou: he mate kau mo te tangata e whakanoa ana i taua ra: ko te tangata hoki e mahi ana i tetahi mahi i reira, ina, ka hatepea atu taua wairua i roto i tona iwi.
and ye have kept the sabbath, for it [is] holy to you, he who is polluting it is certainly put to death — for any who doeth work in it — that person hath even been cut off from the midst of his people.
15 E ono nga ra e mahia ai te mahi; kei te whitu ia o nga ra te hapati okiokinga, he tapu ki a Ihowa: ko te tangata e mahi ana i tetahi mahi i te ra hapati he mate kau mona.
'Six days is work done, and in the seventh day [is] a sabbath of holy rest to Jehovah; any who doeth work in the sabbath-day is certainly put to death,
16 Mo reira me mahara nga tama a Iharaira ki te hapati, kia whakaritea te hapati i o ratou whakatupuranga: kia mau tonu tenei kawenata.
and the sons of Israel have observed the sabbath; to keep the sabbath to their generations [is] a covenant age-during,
17 He tohu tena ra ki waenganui oku, o nga tama a Iharaira, ake ake: e ono hoki nga ra i hanga ai e Ihowa te rangi me te whenua, a i te whitu o nga ra ka okioki, a ta ana tona manawa.
between Me and the sons of Israel it [is] a sign — to the age; for six days Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, and in the seventh day He hath ceased, and is refreshed.'
18 I homai ano e ia ki a Mohi, i te mutunga o tana korero ki a ia i runga i Maunga Hinai, e rua nga papa whakaaturanga, he papa kohatu, he mea tuhituhi na te ringa o te Atua.
And He giveth unto Moses, when He finisheth speaking with him in mount Sinai, two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written by the finger of God.
