Kutoka 25
1 Bwana akamwambia Mose,
And the Lord said to Moses,
2 “Waambie Waisraeli waniletee sadaka. Utapokea sadaka kwa niaba yangu kutoka kwa kila mtu ambaye moyo wake wapenda kutoa.
Say to the children of Israel that they are to make me an offering; from every man who has the impulse in his heart take an offering for me.
3 Hizi ndizo sadaka utakazozipokea kutoka kwao: dhahabu, fedha na shaba;
And this is the offering you are to take from them: gold and silver and brass;
4 nyuzi za rangi ya buluu, za zambarau, za rangi nyekundu, pamoja na kitani safi; singa za mbuzi;
And blue and purple and red, and the best linen, and goats' hair;
5 ngozi za kondoo dume zilizopakwa rangi nyekundu, na ngozi za pomboo; mbao za mshita;
And sheepskins coloured red, and leather, and hard wood;
6 mafuta ya zeituni kwa ajili ya taa; vikolezi kwa ajili ya mafuta ya upako, pamoja na uvumba wa harufu nzuri;
Oil for the light, spices for the sweet-smelling oil, sweet perfumes for burning;
7 na vito vya shohamu na vito vingine vya thamani vya kuweka kwenye kisibau na kile kifuko cha kifuani.
Beryls and stones of value to be put on the ephod and on the priest's bag.
8 “Kisha uwaamuru wanitengenezee mahali patakatifu, nami nitakaa miongoni mwao.
And let them make me a holy place, so that I may be ever present among them.
9 Tengeneza hema hili na vyombo vyake vyote sawasawa na kielelezo nitakachokuonyesha.
Make the House and everything in it from the designs which I will give you.
10 “Nao watatengeneza Sanduku la mbao za mshita, lenye urefu wa dhiraa mbili na nusu, upana wa dhiraa moja na nusu, na kimo cha dhiraa moja na nusu.
And they are to make an ark of hard wood; two and a half cubits long, and a cubit and a half wide and high.
11 Utalifunika hilo Sanduku kwa dhahabu safi ndani na nje, na kulifanyia ukingo wa dhahabu juu yake kulizunguka.
It is to be plated inside and out with the best gold, with an edge of gold all round it
12 Utalisubu kwa pete nne za dhahabu na kuzifungia kwenye miguu yake minne, pete mbili kwa upande mmoja na pete mbili kwa upande mwingine.
And make four rings of gold for it, to be fixed on its four feet, two rings on one side of it and two on the other.
13 Kisha utatengeneza mipiko ya mti wa mshita na kuzifunika kwa dhahabu.
And make rods of the same wood, plating them with gold.
14 Utaiingiza hiyo mipiko kwenye zile pete katika pande mbili za Sanduku ili kulibeba.
And put the rods through the rings at the sides of the ark, for lifting it.
15 Hiyo mipiko itabakia daima katika hizo pete za hilo Sanduku; haitaondolewa.
The rods are to be kept in the rings, and never taken out.
16 Kisha weka ndani ya hilo Sanduku ule Ushuhuda nitakaokupa.
Inside the ark you are to put the record which I will give you.
17 “Tengeneza kifuniko cha upatanisho cha dhahabu safi, chenye urefu wa dhiraa mbili na nusu, na upana wa dhiraa moja na nusu.
And you are to make a cover of the best gold, two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.
18 Tengeneza makerubi wawili wa dhahabu iliyofuliwa katika miisho ya hicho kifuniko.
And at the two ends of the cover you are to make two winged ones of hammered gold,
19 Tengeneza kerubi mmoja kwenye mwisho mmoja, na kerubi mwingine kwenye mwisho mwingine; watengeneze makerubi hao wawe kitu kimoja na hicho kifuniko katika miisho hiyo miwili.
One at one end and one at the other; the winged ones are to be part of the cover.
20 Makerubi hao watakuwa wametandaza mabawa kuelekea juu, yakitia kivuli hicho kifuniko. Makerubi hao wataelekeana, wakitazama hicho kifuniko.
And their wings are to be outstretched over the cover, and the winged ones are to be opposite one another, facing the cover.
21 Weka huo Ushuhuda nitakaokupa ndani ya hilo Sanduku la Agano, na uweke hicho kifuniko juu ya hilo Sanduku.
And put the cover over the ark, and in the ark the record which I will give you.
22 Hapo juu ya hicho kifuniko, kati ya hao makerubi wawili walioko juu ya hilo Sanduku la Ushuhuda, hapo ndipo nitakapokutana nawe na kukupa maagizo yangu kwa ajili ya Waisraeli.
And there, between the two winged ones on the cover of the ark, I will come to you, face to face, and make clear to you all the orders I have to give you for the children of Israel.
23 “Tengeneza meza ya mbao za mshita yenye urefu wa dhiraa mbili, upana wa dhiraa moja, na kimo cha dhiraa moja na nusu.
And you are to make a table of the same wood, two cubits long, a cubit wide and a cubit and a half high,
24 Ifunike kwa dhahabu safi, na kuitengenezea ukingo wa dhahabu kuizunguka pande zote.
Plated with the best gold, with a gold edge all round it;
25 Kisha tengeneza upapi wenye upana wa nyanda nne, na ufanyie ule upapi ukingo wa dhahabu kuuzunguka pande zote.
And make a frame all round it, as wide as a man's hand, with a gold edge to the frame.
26 Tengeneza pete nne za dhahabu kwa ajili ya meza hiyo, na uzifungie kwenye pembe nne, pale penye miguu yake minne.
And make four gold rings and put them at the four angles, on the four feet of the table;
27 Pete hizo zitakuwa karibu na ukingo ule ili kuishikilia ile mipiko itakayotumika kuibebea hiyo meza.
The rings are to be fixed under the frame to take the rods with which the table is to be lifted.
28 Tengeneza mipiko hiyo kwa mbao za mshita, uifunike na dhahabu, uitumie kubeba hiyo meza.
Make rods of the same wood, plated with gold, for lifting the table.
29 Tengeneza sahani zake na masinia yake kwa dhahabu safi, pamoja na bilauri na bakuli zake kwa ajili ya kumiminia sadaka.
And make the table-vessels, the spoons and the cups and the basins for liquids, all of the best gold.
30 Utaweka mikate ya Wonyesho juu ya meza hii iwe mbele yangu daima.
And on the table at all times you are to keep my holy bread.
31 “Tengeneza kinara cha taa cha dhahabu safi iliyofuliwa vizuri katika kitako chake na ufito wake; vikombe vyake vinavyofanana na ua, matovu yake na maua yake viwe kitu kimoja.
And you are to make a support for lights, of the best gold; its base and its pillar are to be of hammered gold; its cups, its buds, and its flowers are to be made of the same metal.
32 Matawi sita yatatokeza kuanzia ule ufito wa katikati wa kinara cha taa: matawi matatu upande mmoja na matatu upande mwingine.
It is to have six branches coming out from its sides; three branches from one side and three from the other.
33 Vikombe vitatu vya mfano wa maua ya mlozi yenye matovu na maua vitakuwa katika tawi moja, vikombe vitatu katika tawi jingine, na vivyo hivyo kwa matawi yote sita yanayotokeza kwenye kile kinara cha taa.
Every branch having three cups made like almond flowers, every cup with a bud and a flower, on all the branches.
34 Juu ya kinara chenyewe vitakuwepo vikombe vinne vya mfano wa maua ya mlozi yakiwa na matovu yake na maua yake.
And on the pillar, four cups like almond flowers, every one with its bud and its flower:
35 Tovu moja litakuwa chini ya jozi ya kwanza ya matawi yaliyotokeza kwenye kinara cha taa, tovu la pili chini ya jozi ya pili, nalo tovu la tatu chini ya jozi ya tatu, yaani matawi sita kwa jumla.
And under every two branches a bud, made with the branch, for all the six branches of it.
36 Matovu na matawi yote yatakuwa kitu kimoja na kile kinara cha taa, yakifuliwa kwa dhahabu safi.
The buds and the branches are to be made of the same metal; all together one complete work of hammered gold.
37 “Kisha tengeneza taa zake saba na uziweke juu ya kinara hicho ili ziangaze mbele yake.
Then you are to make its seven vessels for the lights, putting them in their place so that they give light in front of it.
38 Mikasi ya kusawazishia tambi, pamoja na masinia, zote zitakuwa za dhahabu safi.
And the instruments and trays for use with it are all to be of the best gold.
39 Utatumia talanta moja ya dhahabu safi kutengeneza hicho kinara na vifaa vyake vyote.
A talent of gold will be needed for it, with all these vessels.
40 Hakikisha kuwa umevitengeneza sawasawa na ule mfano ulioonyeshwa kule mlimani.
And see that you make them from the design which you saw on the mountain.
