These are the clothes that they are to make: A sacred pouch for Aaron to wear over his chest, a sacred apron, a robe, an embroidered tunic/gown, a (turban/cloth to wrap around his head), and a sash/waistband. These are the clothes that your [older] brother Aaron and his sons must wear as they serve me [by doing the work that] priests do.
5 Oo ha qaateen dahab, iyo buluug, iyo guduud, iyo casaan, iyo maro wanaagsan.
The skilled workmen must use fine linen and blue, purple, and red yarn/thread to make these clothes.”
6 Oo eefodka ha ka sameeyeen dahab, iyo buluug, iyo guduud, iyo casaan, iyo maro wanaagsan, oo daabacna ha lagu sameeyo.

[A skilled workman] must take two [expensive] onyx stones and engrave on them the names of the twelve sons of Jacob.
10 magacyadooda lix waa inaad isku dhagax ku dhigtaa, oo lixda magac oo hadhayna waa inaad dhagaxa kale ku dhigtaa, siday u kala hor dhasheen.
He must engrave the names in the order in which Jacob’s sons were born. He must engrave six names on one stone, and the other six names on the other stone.
11 Sida shuqulka dhagax-xardhihii waa inaad labada dhagax u xaradhaa xaradh u eg xaradhka shaabadda, oo waana inaad ku dhigtaa magacyadii reer binu Israa'iil; oo waa inaad saldhigyo dahab ah ku dhejisaa.
A gem-cutter should engrave these names on the stones. Then he should enclose the stones in (settings/tiny gold frames).
12 Oo labada dhagax waa inaad ku dhejisaa eefodka garbihiisa inay dhagaxyo xusuus ah u noqdaan reer binu Israa'iil, oo Haaruun waa inuu Rabbiga hortiisa magacyadooda ku qaadaa garbihiisa xusuus ahaan aawadeed.
Then he should fasten the stones onto the shoulder straps [of the sacred apron], to represent the twelve Israeli tribes. In that way, Aaron will carry the names of the tribes on his shoulders in order that [I], Yahweh, will never forget [my people] (OR, in order that [he will always] remember that [those tribes belong to] Yahweh).
13 Oo waa inaad u samaysaa saldhigyo dahab ah,
The settings for the stones must be made from gold.

“[Tell the skilled workman to] make a sacred pouch for Aaron to wear over his chest. [He will use the things he puts into the pouch] to determine [my answers to the questions he asks]. It must be made of the same materials as the sacred apron, and embroidered in the same way.
16 Waa inuu ahaadaa afargeesood oo isku laalaaban; dhererkiisuna ha ahaado taako, ballaadhkiisuna ha ahaado taako.
It is to be square, and the material must be folded double, so that it is (9 in./22 cm.) on each side.
17 Oo waa inaad afar saf oo dhagaxyo ah ku dul dhejisaa; safka kowaad ha ahaado sardiyos, iyo tobasiyos, iyo mid birqaya;
[The skilled workman must] fasten four rows of valuable stones onto the pouch. In the first row he must put a [red] ruby, a [yellow] topaz, and a [red] garnet.
18 safka labaadna ha ahaado sumurud, iyo safayr, iyo dheemman;

21 Oo dhagaxyadu waa inay tiro le'ekaadaan sida magacyada reer binu Israa'iil, ha ahaadeen laba iyo toban sida magacyadooda, oo laba iyo tobanka qabiil waa in mid kasta magiciisa lagu xardho sida xaradhka shaabadda.
A gem-cutter should engrave on each of these twelve stones the name of one of the sons of Jacob. These names will represent the twelve Israeli tribes.
22 Oo laabgashiga waxaad ku samaysaa silsilado xadhko u eg oo laga tidcay dahab saafi ah.
The two [chains] that are made from pure gold and braided like cords are for [attaching] the sacred pouch [to the sacred apron].
23 Oo laabgashiga waxaad ku samaysaa laba siddo oo dahab ah, oo labada siddo waxaad sudhaa laabgashiga labadiisa darfood.
[The workman must] make two gold rings, and attach them to the upper corners of the sacred pouch.
24 Oo labada silsiladood oo tidcan oo dahabka ah waxaad ku xidhaa labada siddo oo ku yaal laabgashiga labadiisa darfood.
[He must make] two gold cords, and fasten one end of each cord to one of the rings.
25 Oo labada silsiladood oo tidcan labadooda madax oo kale waxaad ku xidhaa labada saldhig, oo waxaad ku xidhaa eefodka garbihiisa xaggooda hore.
He must fasten the other end of each cord to the two settings [that enclose the stones]. In that way, the sacred pouch will be attached to the shoulder straps of the sacred apron.
26 Oo waxaad samaysaa laba siddo oo dahab ah, oo waxaad soo sudhaa laabgashiga labadiisa darfood oo gudaha oo eefodka xiga.
Then [he must] make two more gold rings, and attach them to the lower corners of the sacred pouch, on the inside edges, next to the sacred apron.
27 Oo waxaad samaysaa laba siddo oo dahab ah, oo waxaad ku xidhaa eefodka labadiisa garab xaggooda hoose oo dhanka hore ku yaal, oo ku dhow meeshay isku xidhmaan, oo ka sarreeya eefodka dhex-xidhkiisa oo daabaca ah.
[He must] make two more gold rings, and attach them to the lower part of the front of the shoulder straps, near to where [the shoulder straps] are joined [to the sacred apron], just above the carefully-woven sash/waistband.
28 Oo laabgashiga waa inay siddooyinkiisa ku xidhaan siddooyinkii eefodka oo ha kula xidheen shalash buluug ah, inuu ku dul xidnaado dhex-xidhka daabaca ah oo eefodka, iyo inuusan laabgashigu ka furnaan eefodka.
The skilled workman must tie the rings on the sacred pouch to the rings on the sacred apron with a blue cord, so that the sacred pouch is above the sash/waistband and does not come loose from the sacred apron.
29 Oo magacyada reer binu Israa'iil waa in Haaruun ku qaadaa laabgashiga xukumaadda oo qalbigiisa saaran markuu galo meesha quduuska ah, inay xusuus noqdaan Rabbiga hortiisa had iyo goor.
In that way, Aaron will have the names of the twelve Israeli tribes in the sacred pouch close to his chest when he enters the Holy Place. This will remind him that I, Yahweh, [will never forget my people] (OR, [that he represents my people when he talks to me, Yahweh]).
30 Oo laabgashiga xukumaadda waa inaad gelisaa Uuriimka iyo Tummiimka, oo waa inay Haaruun qalbigiisa saarnaadaan markuu Rabbiga hortiisa tago; oo Haaruun waa inuu qalbigiisa ku qaadaa xukumaadda reer binu Israa'iil had iyo goorba.
Put into the sacred pouch the two things that the priest will use to determine my answers to the questions he asks. In that way, they will be close to his chest when he enters [the Holy Place to talk] to me. He will use them to find out what is my will for the Israeli people.”
31 Oo khamiiska eefodka kulligiis waa inaad ka dhigtaa buluug.
“[Tell the workmen to] use only blue [cloth] to make the robe that is to be worn underneath the priest’s sacred apron.
32 Oo waa inuu meel daloosha oo madaxu maro ku lahaadaa; oo waa inuu ahaado sida dhar leh tolmo wanaagsan oo daloolkiisa ku wareegsan inuusan dillaacin aawadeed.
It is to have an opening through which [the priest] can put his head. They must sew a border around this opening, to keep the material from tearing.
33 Oo khamiiska daraftiisa hoose waxaad u yeeshaa rummaanno oo ah buluug, iyo guduud, iyo casaan, oo ku wada wareeji daraftiisa hareeraheeda oo dhan; oo dawanno dahab ahna dhexdooda geli oo ku wareeji.
At the lower edge on the robe, they must fasten [decorations that look like] pomegranate fruit. They must be [woven from] blue, purple, and red yarn/thread.
34 Dawan dahab ah iyo rummaan, haddana dawan dahab ah iyo rummaan, waa inaad ku wareejisaa khamiiska daraftiisa.
Between each of these decorations, they must fasten a tiny gold bell.
35 Oo Haaruun waa inuu gashado inuu ku adeego; oo sanqadhiisana waa la maqli doonaa markuu tago Rabbiga hortiisa oo uu galo meesha quduuska ah, iyo markii uu ka soo baxaba, inuusan dhiman aawadeed.
When Aaron enters the Holy Place [in the Sacred Tent] to do his work as a priest and when he leaves the Sacred Tent, the bells will ring [as he walks]. As a result, he will not die [because of disobeying my instructions].
36 Oo waa inaad samaysaa waslad khafiifa oo dahab saafiya ah, waxaad ku xaradhaa xaradhka u eg xaradhka shaabadda oo leh, WAA U QUDUUS RABBIGA.

37 Oo waa inaad ku xidhaa shalash buluug ah, oo ku dhejisaa duubka, oo duubka intiisa hore ha ku taallo.
They should fasten this ornament to the front of the turban by a blue cord.
38 Oo ha ku taallo Haaruun fooddiisa, Oo Haaruun baa qaadi doona dembiga alaabta quduuska ah, oo ay reer binu Israa'iil quduus kaga dhigi doonaan hadiyadahooda quduuska ah; oo mar kasta waxay ku oolli doontaa fooddiisa, in iyaga laga aqbalo Rabbiga hortiisa.
Aaron must always wear this on his forehead. In that way, Aaron himself will show [that he accepts] the guilt if the Israeli people offer [their sacrifices] to me in a way that is not correct, and I, Yahweh, will accept their sacrifices.
39 Oo jubbadda marada wanaagsan laga sameeyey waa inaad daabacdaa oo waa inaad duub ka samaysaa maro wanaagsan, oo dhex-xidh waa inaad ka samaysaa daabac.
“[Tell them to] weave the long-sleeved tunic/gown from fine linen. Also, they must make from fine linen a turban and a sash/waistband, and embroider [designs on it].
40 Oo wiilasha Haaruunna waa inaad u samaysaa jubbado iyo dhex-xidho, iyo duubab, iyagu ha u ahaadeen ammaan iyo qurux.
“[Tell them to] make beautiful long-sleeved tunics/gowns, sashes, and caps for Aaron’s sons. Make ones that will be suitable for those who have this dignified work.
41 Oo waxaad dharkaas u lebbistaa walaalkaa Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa la joogaba; oo waa inaad iyaga subagtaa, oo daahirisaa oo quduus ka dhigtaa, inay iiga adeegaan hawsha wadaadnimada.
Put these clothes on your [older] brother Aaron and on his sons. Then (set them apart/dedicate them) for this work by anointing them [with olive oil], in order that they may serve me [by being] priests.
42 Oo waa inaad iyaga u samaysaa sirwaallo maro wanaagsan ah oo gaadha dhexdooda ilaa bowdyahooda, oo ay ku qariyaan cawradooda;
Also [tell them to] make linen undershorts for them. The undershorts should extend from their waists to their thighs, in order that no one can see their private parts.
43 Haaruun iyo wiilashiisu waa inay gashadaan markay galaan taambuugga shirka ama markay meesha allabariga u dhowaadaan inay ka dhex adeegaan meesha quduuska ah inaanay dembi qaadin oo dhiman. Waxay isaga iyo farcankiisa ka dambeeyaba ku noqon doontaa qaynuun weligiis ah.
Aaron and his sons must always wear those undershorts when they enter the Sacred Tent or when they come near to the altar to offer sacrifices in the Holy Place. If they do not obey this command, I will cause them to die. Aaron and all his male descendants must obey this rule forever.”
