ʻEkisotosi 31

1 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,

Then the LORD said to Moses,

2 “Vakai, kuo u ui ʻa Pesalili ko e foha ʻo Uli, ko e foha ʻo Hua, ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo Siuta:

“See, I have called by name Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.

3 Pea kuo u fakafonu ia ʻi he laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻi he poto, pea ʻi he loto-matala, mo e faʻa ʻilo, pea ʻi he ngaahi ngāue fakatufunga kotoa pē,

And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability, and knowledge in all kinds of craftsmanship,

4 Ke fifili ki he ngaahi ngāue fakapotopoto, ke ngāue ʻi he koula, mo e siliva, mo e palasa.

to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze,

5 Pea ʻi he tātā ʻoe ngaahi maka koloa, ke fakamaʻu ia, pea ʻi he tātā ʻae ʻakau, mo e ngāue ʻi he ngaahi ngāue fakatufunga kotoa pē.

to cut gemstones for settings, and to carve wood, so that he may be a master of every craft.

6 Pea ko au, vakai, kuo u foaki mo ia ʻa ʻAholiapi ko e foha ʻo ʻEhisamaki, ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo Tani: pea kuo u ʻai ʻae poto ki he loto ʻokinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku loto poto, koeʻuhi ke nau faʻa ngaohi ʻaia kotoa pē kuo u fekau kiate koe:

Moreover, I have selected Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, as his assistant. I have also given skill to all the craftsmen, that they may fashion all that I have commanded you:

7 Ko e fale fakatahaʻanga ʻoe kakai, mo e puha ʻoe fuakava, mo e nofoʻanga ʻaloʻofa ʻoku hilifaki ki hono funga, mo hono ngaahi nāunau kotoa pē ʻoe fale fehikitaki,

the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the Testimony and the mercy seat upon it, and all the other furnishings of the tent—

8 Mo e palepale mo hono nāunau, mo e tuʻunga maama māʻoniʻoni mo hono nāunau kotoa pē, mo e feilaulauʻanga ʻoe meʻa namu kakala,

the table with its utensils, the pure gold lampstand with all its utensils, the altar of incense,

9 Mo e feilaulauʻanga ʻoe feilaulau tutu mo hono nāunau kotoa pē, mo e sene mo hono tuʻunga,

the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin with its stand—

10 Mo e ngaahi kofu ʻoe ngāue, mo e ngaahi kofu tapu kia ʻElone ko e taulaʻeiki, mo e ngaahi kofu ki hono ngaahi foha, ke nau ngāue ai ʻi he ngāue fakataulaʻeiki,

as well as the woven garments, both the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons to serve as priests,

11 Mo e lolo tākai, mo e meʻa namu kakala ki he potu māʻoniʻoni: te nau fai ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa kotoa pē kuo u fekau kiate koe.”

in addition to the anointing oil and fragrant incense for the Holy Place. They are to make them according to all that I have commanded you.”

12 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,

And the LORD said to Moses,

13 ke ke lea foki ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “Ko e moʻoni te mou tauhi hoku ngaahi Sāpate: he ko e fakaʻilonga ia ʻiate au mo kimoutolu ʻi homou ngaahi toʻutangata kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou fakatapui ʻakimoutolu.

“Tell the Israelites, ‘Surely you must keep My Sabbaths, for this will be a sign between Me and you for the generations to come, so that you may know that I am the LORD who sanctifies you.

14 Ko ia te mou tauhi ai ʻae Sāpate he ʻoku tapu ia kiate kimoutolu: ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻuliʻi ia ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia: he ko ia kotoa pē ʻe fai ʻi ai ha ngāue, ʻe motuhi ʻae tangata ko ia mei hono kakai,

Keep the Sabbath, for it is holy to you. Anyone who profanes it must surely be put to death. Whoever does any work on that day must be cut off from among his people.

15 ‌ʻOku ngofua ke fai ʻae ngāue ʻi he ʻaho ʻe ono; ka ʻi hono fitu, ko e Sāpate ʻoe mālōlō, ko e māʻoniʻoni kia Sihova: ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku fai ha ngāue ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate, ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia.

For six days work may be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of complete rest, holy to the LORD. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day must surely be put to death.

16 Ko ia, ʻe tauhi ʻae Sāpate ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ke tokanga ki he Sāpate ʻi homou ngaahi toʻutangata kotoa pē, ko e fuakava maʻuaipē ia.

The Israelites must keep the Sabbath, celebrating it as a permanent covenant for the generations to come.

17 Ko e fakaʻilonga ia ʻiate au mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo taʻengata: he naʻe ngaohi ʻe Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ʻe ono ʻae langi mo e fonua, pea naʻa ne tutuku ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho, pea fiemālie ai.”

It is a sign between Me and the Israelites forever; for in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, but on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed.’”

18 Pea hili ʻene folofola kia Mōsese ʻi he moʻunga ko Sainai, naʻa ne ʻatu kiate ia ʻae maka ʻe ua ʻoe fuakava, ko e ongo maka, kuo tohi ʻaki ʻae louhiʻi nima ʻoe ʻOtua.

When the LORD had finished speaking with Moses on Mount Sinai, He gave him the two tablets of the Testimony, tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God.
