Tirintii 8

1 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo ku yidhi,

Then the LORD said to Moses,

2 Haaruun la hadal, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Markaad laambadaha shiddid, toddobada laambadood oo yaryar waa inay ka iftiimaan laambadda horteeda.

“Speak to Aaron and tell him: ‘When you set up the seven lamps, they are to light the area in front of the lampstand.’”

3 Oo Haaruunna sidaasuu yeelay, oo wuxuu wada shiday laambadaheedii si ay uga iftiimaan laambadda horteeda, sidii Rabbigu Muuse ku amray.

And Aaron did so; he set up the lamps facing toward the front of the lampstand, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

4 Oo shuqulkii laambaddu wuxuu ahaa dahab la tumay. Tan iyo salkeeda ilaa ubaxeeda waxay wada ahayd dahab la tumay. Sidii Rabbigu Muuse u tusay ayuu laambaddii u sameeyey.

This is how the lampstand was constructed: it was made of hammered gold from its base to its blossoms, fashioned according to the pattern the LORD had shown Moses.

5 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,

Again the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

6 Reer Laawi ka dhex sooc reer binu Israa'iil oo iyaga daahiri.

“Take the Levites from among the Israelites and make them ceremonially clean.

7 Oo markaad daahirinaysid sidan iyaga ku samee: dushooda waxaad ku rushaysaa biyaha daahirinta, oo iyaguna timaha ha ka xiireen jidhkooda oo dhan, oo dharkoodana ha maydheen, hana isdaahiriyeen.

This is what you must do to cleanse them: Sprinkle them with the water of purification. Have them shave their whole bodies and wash their clothes, and so purify themselves.

8 Oo markaas iyagu ha kaxaysteen dibi yar iyo qurbaankiisii hadhuudhka oo ah bur saliid lagu daray, oo dibi kale oo yarna waxaad u kaxaysaa qurbaan dembi.

Then have them take a young bull with its grain offering of fine flour mixed with oil, and you are to take a second young bull for a sin offering.

9 Oo reer Laawi waa inaad hor taagtaa teendhada shirka, oo waa inaad soo shirisaa dadka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.

Bring the Levites before the Tent of Meeting and assemble the whole congregation of Israel.

10 Oo reer Laawi waa inaad keentaa Rabbiga hortiisa, oo reer binu Israa'iilna waa inay gacmaha saaraan reer Laawi.

You are to present the Levites before the LORD and have the Israelites lay their hands upon them.

11 Haaruunna waa inuu reer Laawi Rabbiga hortiisa ugu bixiyaa qurbaan la ruxruxo ahaan reer binu Israa'iil daraaddood, si ay u sameeyaan Rabbiga hawshiisa.

Aaron is to present the Levites before the LORD as a wave offering from the sons of Israel, so that they may perform the service of the LORD.

12 Oo reer Laawina waa inay gacmaha saaraan madaxa dibida, oo mid waxaad u bixisaa qurbaan dembi, kan kalena waxaad Rabbiga ugu bixisaa qurbaan la gubo, si aad reer Laawi ugu kafaaro guddid.

And the Levites are to lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and offer to the LORD one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, to make atonement for the Levites.

13 Oo reer Laawi waa inaad Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa soo hor taagtaa, oo aad Rabbiga ugu bixisaa qurbaan la ruxruxo ahaan.

You are to have the Levites stand before Aaron and his sons and then present them before the LORD as a wave offering.

14 Oo waa inaad reer Laawi sidaas uga soocdaa reer binu Israa'iil, oo reer Laawina kuwaygay ahaan doonaan.

In this way you shall separate the Levites from the rest of the Israelites, and the Levites will belong to Me.

15 Oo markaas dabadeedna reer Laawi ha u galeen inay ka adeegaan teendhada shirka, oo waa inaad iyaga daahirisaa oo qurbaan la ruxruxo ahaan u bixisaa.

After you have cleansed them and presented them as a wave offering, they may come to serve at the Tent of Meeting.

16 Waayo, iyaga dhammaantood ayaa la iiga soocay reer binu Israa'iil. Intii lay siin lahaa intii maxal furta oo dhan, kuwaasoo ah curadyada reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, ayaan iyaga qaatay.

For the Levites have been wholly given to Me from among the sons of Israel. I have taken them for Myself in place of all who come first from the womb, the firstborn of all the sons of Israel.

17 Waayo, dad iyo duunyaba curadyada reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan anigaa iska leh. Waxaan iyaga quduus ka dhigtay maalintii aan wada laayay curadyadii dalka Masar oo dhan.

For every firstborn male in Israel is Mine, both man and beast. I set them apart for Myself on the day I struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt.

18 Oo waxaan qaatay reer Laawi intii aan qaadan lahaa curadyada reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.

But I have taken the Levites in place of all the firstborn among the sons of Israel.

19 Oo reer Laawi ayaan reer binu Israa'iil ka soocay oo hadiyad ahaan u siiyey Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa inay reer binu Israa'iil uga adeegaan teendhada shirka iyo inay reer binu Israa'iil u kafaaro gudaan, si aan belaayo ugu dhicin reer binu Israa'iil markii reer binu Israa'iil ay u soo dhowaadaan meesha quduuska ah.

And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and his sons from among the Israelites, to perform the service for the Israelites at the Tent of Meeting and to make atonement on their behalf, so that no plague will come against the Israelites when they approach the sanctuary.”

20 Oo Muuse iyo Haaruun iyo shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu sidaasay ku sameeyeen reer Laawi. Wixii reer Laawi ku saabsanaa ee uu Rabbigu Muuse ku amray oo dhan ayay reer binu Israa'iil wada yeeleen.

So Moses, Aaron, and the whole congregation of Israel did with the Levites everything that the LORD had commanded Moses they should do.

21 Oo reer Laawina dembi way iska daahiriyeen, oo dharkoodiina way maydheen, markaasaa Haaruun qurbaan la ruxruxo ahaan Rabbiga hortiisa iyaga ugu bixiyey, oo inuu iyaga daahiriyo aawadeed ayaa Haaruun u kafaaro guday.

The Levites purified themselves and washed their clothes, and Aaron presented them as a wave offering before the LORD. Aaron also made atonement for them to cleanse them.

22 Oo markaas dabadeed ayaa reer Laawi gudaha u galeen inay teendhada shirka kaga adeegaan Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa hortooda, oo wixii reer Laawi ku saabsanaa ee uu Rabbigu Muuse ku amray ayay ku sameeyeen.

After that, the Levites came to perform their service at the Tent of Meeting in the presence of Aaron and his sons. Thus they did with the Levites just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

23 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,

And the LORD said to Moses,

24 Tanu waa waxa reer Laawi intii shan iyo labaatan sannadood jirta ama ka sii weyn ay leeyihiin inay sameeyaan. Iyagu ha galeen oo ha ka adeegeen hawsha teendhada shirka.

“This applies to the Levites: Men twenty-five years of age or older shall enter to perform the service in the work at the Tent of Meeting.

25 Oo markii ay konton jir gaadhaan waa inay ka joogsadaan hawsha ka-adeegiddeeda oo aanay mar dambe adeegin,

But at the age of fifty, they must retire from performing the work and no longer serve.

26 laakiinse walaalahood teendhada shirka ha kala adeegeen si ay amarka u hayaan laakiinse yaanay hawl dambe qaban. Sidaas waa inaad ka yeeshaa amarrada ku saabsan reer Laawi hawshooda.

After that, they may assist their brothers in fulfilling their duties at the Tent of Meeting, but they themselves are not to do the work. This is how you are to assign responsibilities to the Levites.”
