1 Bezaleli akatengeneza Sanduku la mbao za mshita: urefu wake ulikuwa dhiraa mbili na nusu, upana wake dhiraa moja na nusu, na kimo chake dhiraa moja na nusu.
And Bezaleel made the ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half was the length of it, and a cubit and a half the breadth of it, and a cubit and a half the height of it:
2 Akalifunika kwa dhahabu safi ndani na nje, na kulizungushia ukingo wa dhahabu.
And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a crown of gold for it all around.
3 Akasubu pete nne za dhahabu na kuzifungia kwenye miguu yake minne, pete mbili kwa upande mmoja na pete mbili kwa upande mwingine.
And he cast for it four rings of gold, to be set by its four corners; even two rings upon its one side, and two rings upon its other side
4 Kisha akatengeneza mipiko ya mti wa mshita na kuzifunika kwa dhahabu.
And he made staffs of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.
5 Akaiingiza hiyo mipiko kwenye zile pete katika pande mbili za Sanduku ili kulibeba.
And he put the staffs into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.
6 Akatengeneza kifuniko cha upatanisho kwa dhahabu safi: urefu wake ulikuwa dhiraa mbili na nusu, na upana wake dhiraa moja na nusu.
And he made the mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half was the length of it, and one cubit and a half the breadth of it.
7 Kisha akatengeneza makerubi wawili wa dhahabu iliyofuliwa katika miisho ya hicho kifuniko.
And he made two cherubim of gold, beaten out of one piece he made them, on the two ends of the mercy seat;
8 Akatengeneza kerubi mmoja kwenye mwisho mmoja, na kerubi mwingine kwenye mwisho mwingine; akawatengeneza kuwa kitu kimoja na hicho kifuniko katika miisho hiyo miwili.
One cherub on the end on this side, and another cherub on the other end on that side: out of the mercy seat made he the cherubim on its two ends.
9 Makerubi hao walikuwa wametandaza mabawa kuelekea juu, wakitia kivuli hicho kifuniko. Makerubi hao walielekeana, wakitazama hicho kifuniko.
And the cherubim spread out their wings on high, and covered with their wings over the mercy seat, with their faces one to another; even toward the mercy seat were the faces of the cherubim.
10 Akatengeneza meza ya mbao za mshita yenye urefu wa dhiraa mbili, upana wa dhiraa moja, na kimo cha dhiraa moja na nusu.
And he made the table of shittim wood: two cubits was its length, and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height:
11 Kisha akaifunika kwa dhahabu safi, na kuitengenezea ukingo wa dhahabu kuizunguka pande zote.
And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made for it a crown of gold all around.

Also he made for it a border of an handbreadth all around; and made a crown of gold for its border all around.
13 Akasubu pete nne za dhahabu kwa ajili ya meza hiyo, na kuzifungia kwenye pembe nne, pale penye miguu yake minne.
And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings upon the four corners that were in its four feet.
14 Pete hizo ziliwekwa karibu na ukingo ule ili kuishikilia ile mipiko iliyotumika kuibebea hiyo meza.
Close to the border were the rings, the places for the staffs to bear the table.
15 Mipiko hiyo ya kubebea meza ilitengenezwa kwa mti wa mshita, na ilikuwa imefunikwa kwa dhahabu.
And he made the staffs of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold, to bear the table.
16 Vyombo vyote vya mezani vilitengenezwa kwa dhahabu safi: yaani sahani zake, masinia, na bakuli na bilauri zake kwa ajili ya kumiminia sadaka za vinywaji.
And he made the vessels which were upon the table, its dishes, and its spoons, and its bowls, and its covers to cover with, of pure gold.
17 Akatengeneza kinara cha taa cha dhahabu safi iliyofuliwa vizuri katika kitako chake na ufito wake; vikombe vyake vilivyofanana na ua, matovu na maua vilikuwa kitu kimoja.
And he made the lampstand of pure gold: of beaten work he made the lampstand; its shaft, and its branch, its bowls, its knobs, and its flowers, were of the same:
18 Matawi sita yalitokeza kuanzia ule ufito wa katikati wa kinara cha taa: matawi matatu upande mmoja na matatu upande mwingine.
And six branches proceeding from its sides; three branches of the lampstand from the one side of it, and three branches of the lampstand from its other side:
19 Vikombe vitatu vya mfano wa maua ya mlozi yenye matovu na maua vilikuwa katika tawi moja, vikombe vitatu katika tawi jingine, na vivyo hivyo kwa matawi yote sita yaliyotokeza kwenye kile kinara cha taa.
Three bowls made after the fashion of almonds in one branch, a knob and a flower; and three bowls made like almonds in another branch, a knob and a flower: so throughout the six branches going out of the lampstand.
20 Juu ya kinara chenyewe kulikuwepo na vikombe vinne vya mfano wa maua ya mlozi yakiwa na matovu yake na maua yake.
And in the lampstand were four bowls made like almonds, its knobs, and its flowers:
21 Tovu moja lilikuwa 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 a knob under two branches of the same, and a knob under two branches of the same, and a knob under two branches of the same, according to the six branches going out of it.
22 Matovu na matawi yote yalikuwa kitu kimoja na kile kinara cha taa, yakiwa yamefuliwa kwa dhahabu safi.
Their knobs and their branches were of the same: all of it was one beaten work of pure gold.

And he made the incense altar of shittim wood: the length of it was a cubit, and the breadth of it a cubit; it was foursquare; and two cubits was the height of it; the horns of it were of the same.
26 Akafunika hayo madhabahu juu na pande zote na pia zile pembe zake kwa dhahabu safi, na akayafanyizia ukingo wa dhahabu kuizunguka.
And he overlaid it with pure gold, both the top of it, and its sides all around, and its horns: also he made for it a crown of gold all around.
27 Akatengeneza pete mbili za dhahabu kwa ajili ya madhabahu chini ya huo ukingo, zikiwa mbili kila upande, za kushikilia hiyo mipiko iliyotumika kuyabebea madhabahu.
