Ekoruhe 37

1 I hanga ano e Petareere te aaka, he hitimi te rakau: e rua whatianga me te hawhe te roa, kotahi whatianga me he hawhe te whanui, kotahi whatianga me te hawhe te teitei:

Now Bezalel also made the ark from setim wood, having two and one half cubits in length, and one and one half cubits in width, and the height was also one and one half cubits. And he clothed it with the purest gold, inside and out.

2 A i whakakikoruatia e ia ki te koura parakore a roto, a waho; i hanga ano e ia he niao koura a tawhio noa.

And for it he made a crown of gold all around,

3 I whakarewaina ano nga mowhiti koura e wha mo ona koki e wha; e rua nga mowhiti mo tetahi taha, e rua hoki nga mowhiti mo tetahi taha.

casting four gold rings at its four corners: two rings on one side, and two on the other.

4 I hanga ano e ia he amo, he hitimi te rakau, a whakakikoruatia iho ki te koura.

Likewise, he made bars from setim wood, which he clothed with gold,

5 A i kuhua e ia nga amo ki nga mowhiti i nga taha o te aaka, hei amo mo te aaka.

and he placed them into the rings, which were at the sides of the ark, to carry it.

6 I hanga ano e ia te taupoki ki te koura parakore: e rua whatianga me te hawhe te roa, kotahi whatianga me te hawhe te whanui.

He also made the propitiatory, that is, the oracle, from the finest gold, two and one half cubits in length, and one and one half cubits in width,

7 I hanga ano nga kerupima e rua ki te koura, he mea patu tana mahina, ki nga pito e rua o te taupoki;

and then two Cherubim of ductile gold, which he positioned at the two sides of the propitiatory:

8 Kotahi te kerupi ki tenei pito, kotahi kerupi ki tera pito; i honoa nga kerupima ki te taupoki ki ona pito e rua.

one Cherub at the top of one side, and the other Cherub at the top of the other side. The two Cherubim were at each end of the propitiatory,

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

spreading their wings, and protecting the propitiatory, and gazing toward it and toward one another.

10 I hanga ano te tepu, he hitimi te rakau; e rua whatianga te roa, kotahi whatianga te whanui, kotahi whatianga me te hawhe te teitei:

He also made the table from setim wood, with a length of two cubits, and a width of one cubit, which had a height of one and one half cubits.

11 A i whakakikoruatia ki te koura parakore, i hanga ano hoki he niao koura mo taua mea a tawhio noa.

And he surrounded it with the finest gold, and for it he made a ledge of gold all around,

12 I hanga ano e ia he awhi mo taua mea, he whanui ringa te nui a tawhio noa; i hanga ano he niao koura mo te awhi a tawhio noa.

and for the ledge itself he made a polished crown of gold, four fingers high, and upon the same, another crown of gold.

13 A i whakarewaina nga mowhiti koura e wha, a whakanohoia iho nga mowhiti ki nga koki e wha i ona waewae e wha.

And he cast four gold rings, which he set at the four corners at each foot of the table,

14 I te ritenga ake o te awhi nga mowhiti, hei kuhunga mo nga amo, hei maunga mo te tepu.

opposite the crown. And he placed the bars into them, so that the table could be carried.

15 A i hanga e ia nga amo, he hitimi te rakau, a whakakikoruatia iho ki te koura, hei amo mo te tepu.

Likewise, the bars themselves he made from setim wood, and he surrounded them with gold.

16 I hanga ano nga oko mo runga i te tepu ki te koura parakore, ona rihi, ona koko, ona peihana me ona kapu mo nga ringihanga.

And he made vessels for the diverse uses of the table, as well as the little cups, and bowls, and measuring cups, and the censers, from pure gold, in which the libations would be offered.

17 I hanga ano te turanga rama ki te koura parakore: ko tana hanganga i te turanga rama he mea patu; no reira ano tona take, tona peka, ona kapu, ona puku, me ona puawai.

He also made the lampstand, formed from the finest gold. The branches, bowls, and little spheres, as well as the lilies, proceeded from its bar:

18 A e ono nga peka i 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 on the two sides, three branches on one side, and three on the other.

19 E toru nga kapu, he mea rite ki te puawai aramona, te puku, me te puawai, ki tetahi peka; e toru hoki nga kapu, he mea rite ki te puawai aramona ki tetahi atu peka, te puku, me te puawai: he pera tonu i nga peka e ono e puta ake ana i te turanga rama.

Three bowls, the size of a nut, were on each branch, with little spheres and lilies, and three bowls, in the likeness of a nut, were on the other branch, with the little spheres together with the lilies. The workmanship of the six branches, which proceeded from the shaft of the lampstand, was equal.

20 A e wha nga kapu o te turanga rama, he mea rite ki te puawai aramona, me te puku, me te puawai o tetahi, o tetahi:

Now on the shaft itself were four bowls, the size of a nut, and little spheres together with each one, and lilies,

21 A e rua nga peka, kotahi puku, o raro ake, no taua koura ra ano, e rua hoki nga peka, kotahi puku, o raro ake no taua koura ra ano, e rua hoki nga peka, kotahi puku, o raro ake, no taua koura ra ano, rite tonu ki nga peka e ono e puta mai ana i roto i taua mea.

and little spheres under two branches in three places, which together made six branches proceeding from one bar.

22 No te mea kotahi nga puku, nga peka: he koura parakore katoa; kotahi tonu, he mea patu.

Thus, both the little spheres and the branches were from the same thing: all hand-worked from the purest gold.

23 I hanga ano hoki e ia ki te koura parakore nga rama e whitu o taua mea, me ona kuku, me ona oko ngarahu.

He also made the seven lamps with their candle snuffers, and the vessels where the candles would be extinguished, from the finest gold.

24 Kotahi ano te taranata koura parakore i hanga ai taua mea, me ona oko katoa.

The lampstand with all its vessels weighed a talent of gold.

25 I hanga ano e ia te aata hei tahunga mea kakara, he hitimi te rakau: kotahi whatianga te roa, kotahi whatianga te whanui; he tapawha; e rua whatianga te teitei; no taua mea ra ano ona haona.

He also made the altar of incense from setim wood, having one cubit on each of four sides, and in height, two. From its corners proceeded horns.

26 A whakakikoruatia iho e ia taua mea ki te koura parakore, a runga, me ona taha, a potae katoa, me ona haona: i hanga ano e ia he niao koura mo taua mea a tawhio noa.

And he clothed it with the purest gold, with its grating, as well as the sides and the horns.

27 I hanga ano nga mowhiti koura e rua mo taua mea, mo raro iho i tona niao, ki ona koki e rua, ki ona taha e rua, hei kuhunga mo nga amo, hei amohanga.

And for it he made a crown of gold all around, and two gold rings under the crown at each side, so that the bars might be put into them, and the altar could be carried.

28 I hanga ano nga amo, he hitimi te rakau, a whakakikoruatia iho ki te koura.

Now the bars themselves he also made from setim wood, and he covered them with layers of gold.

29 I hanga ano e ia te hinu tapu hei whakawahi, me te whakakakara parakore ki nga mea kakara, ta te kaiwhakaranu hoki e hanga ai.

He also composed the oil for the ointment of sanctification, and the incense, from the purest aromatics, with the skill of a perfumer.
