2 Mose 25
1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
2 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, wɔmmɔ afɔdeɛ mma me.
“Speak to the sons of Israel, and they take a raised-offering for Me; you take My raised-offering from every man whose heart impels him.
3 “Saa nneɛma a ɛdidi so yi mu na wɔmfiri mmɔ me afɔdeɛ no: “sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, kɔbere,
And this [is] the raised-offering which you take from them: gold, and silver, and bronze,
4 ntoma tuntum, koogyan bibire tam; koogyan tam, serekye, abirekyie ho nwi,
and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and linen, and goats’ [hair],
5 odwennini nhoma a wɔahyɛ no kɔkɔɔ, mmirekyie nwoma a wɔahyɛ, okuo dua,
and rams’ skins made red, and tachashim skins, and shittim wood,
6 kanea ngo, ɔsra ngo, nnuhwam a wɔhyeɛ,
oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil, and for the incense of the spices,
7 apopobibirieboɔ, aboɔdemmoɔ a wɔde bɛtuatua asɔfotadeɛ ne adaaboɔ no mu.
shoham stones, and stones for setting for an ephod, and for a breastplate.
8 “Mepɛ sɛ Israelfoɔ si asɔredan kronkron ma me, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, mɛtumi atena wɔn mu.
And they have made a sanctuary for Me, and I have dwelt in their midst;
9 Me fie no bɛyɛ ntomadan. Mɛkyerɛ mo ɛkwan a mepɛ sɛ mosi saa dan no ne sɛdeɛ mobɛsiesie mu na moagyina so asi.
according to all that which I am showing you, the pattern of the Dwelling Place, and the pattern of all its vessels, even so you make [it].
10 “Momfa okuo dua nyɛ Apam Adaka a ne ntentenemu yɛ basafa baako ne fa, ne tɛtrɛtɛ nyɛ anammɔn mmienu ne kakra na ne korɔn nso nyɛ anammɔn mmienu ne kakra.
And they have made an ark of shittim wood; two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height;
11 Na momfa sikakɔkɔɔ mapa nnura ɛho ne emu nyinaa.
and you have overlaid it [with] pure gold, you overlay it inside and outside, and you have made a ring of gold on it all around.
12 Momfa sikakɔkɔɔ nkawa ɛnan nhyehyɛ adaka no nan ɛnan no ho, wɔ fam pɛɛ. Ma nkawa no mmienu nkɔ ɛfa baako na mmienu a aka no nso nkɔ ɛfa.
And you have cast four rings of gold for it, and have put [them] on its four feet, even two rings on its one side, and two rings on its second side;
13 Fa okuo sene mpoma, na fa sikakɔkɔɔ duradura ho,
and you have made poles of shittim wood, and have overlaid them [with] gold,
14 na fa hyehyɛ nkawa no mu na wɔde apam adaka no asoa.
and have brought the poles into the rings on the sides of the Ark, to carry the Ark by them;
15 Monnyiyi nnua a wɔde soa adaka no mfiri nkawa no mu. Momma ɛnhyehyɛ mu afebɔɔ.
the poles are in the rings of the Ark, they are not turned aside from it;
16 Mowie adaka no a, momfa ɛboɔ a matwerɛ Mmaransɛm Edu no agu so no nto mu.
and you have put the Testimony which I give to you into the Ark.
17 “Momfa sikakɔkɔɔ nyɛ adaka no mmuasoɔ a wɔfrɛ no Mpata Dwa. Ne ntentenemu yɛ anammɔn mmiɛnsa ne fa, ɛnna ne tɛtrɛtɛ nso yɛ anammɔn mmienu ne fa. Ɛha ne beaeɛ a mobɛnya mo bɔne so ahummɔborɔ.
And you have made a propitiatory covering of pure gold, two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth;
18 Momfa sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔaboro nyɛ Kerubim mmienu. Momfa ɔbaako nsi adaka no nkatasoɔ atifi na momfa ɔbaako nsi anafoɔ.
and you have made two cherubim of gold; you make them beaten work at the two ends of the propitiatory covering;
19 Fa Kerubim no tetare adaka no ti ne nʼanafoɔ na ɛne adaka no nkatasoɔ no nyɛ mua.
and make one cherub at the end on this [side] and one cherub at the end on that [side]; at the propitiatory covering you make the cherubim on its two ends.
20 Kerubim a wɔyɛ abɔfoɔ no bɛdi nhwɛanimu a wɔasisi wɔn ti ase rehwɛ mpatadwa no na wɔatrɛtrɛ wɔn ntaban mu akata so.
And the cherubim have been spreading out wings on high, covering over the propitiatory covering with their wings, and their faces [are] toward one another—the faces of the cherubim are toward the propitiatory covering.
21 Momfa ɛboɔ twerɛpono a mede bɛma mo no nto adaka no mu, na momfa ne ti no nkata so.
And you have put the propitiatory covering on the Ark above, and you put the Testimony which I give to you into the Ark;
22 Na mɛhyia mo wɔ hɔ na makasa afiri mpata beaeɛ wɔ soro hɔ afa abɔfoɔ no ntam. Na adaka no mu na wɔbɛkora mʼapam no ho mmara. Ɛhɔ na mɛda me mmaransɛm a mode bɛma Israelfoɔ no adi akyerɛ mo.
and I have met with you there, and have spoken with you from off the propitiatory covering (from between the two cherubim, which [are] on the Ark of the Testimony) all that which I command you concerning the sons of Israel.
23 “Momfa okuo dua nyɛ ɛpono a ne ntentenemu yɛ anammɔn mmiɛnsa, ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn baako ne fa na ne ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn mmienu ne fa.
And you have made a table of shittim wood, two cubits its length, and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height,
24 Momfa sikakɔkɔɔ nnura ho na momfa sikakɔkɔɔ hankra ntwa ho nhyia.
and have overlaid it [with] pure gold, and have made a crown of gold for it all around,
25 Yɛ adaka no ho mfomfamho a ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ nsateakwaa ɛnan twa ɛpono no ntɛntɛnoa ho hyia, na fa sikakɔkɔɔ hankra fa ho.
and have made a border of a handbreadth for it all around, and have made a crown of gold for its border all around.
26 Yɛ sikakɔkɔɔ nkawa ɛnan na fa nkawa ɛnan no tuatua ne nan ɛnan no biara akyi
And you have made four rings of gold for it, and have put the rings on the four corners, which [are] at its four feet;
27 twɛtwɛwaso wɔ soro. Wɔde nnua no bɛhyehyɛ saa nkawa no mu na wɔde apagya ɛpono no asoa.
close by the border are the rings for places for poles to carry the table;
28 Fa okuo yɛ nnua no, na fa sikakɔkɔɔ dura ho.
and you have made the poles of shittim wood, and have overlaid them with gold, and the table has been carried with them;
29 Momfa sikakɔkɔɔ amapa nyɛ nwowaa, ntere, nhina ne nsatoa.
and you have made its dishes, and its bowls, and its covers, and its cups, with which they pour out; you make them of pure gold;
30 Ɛda biara, fa burodo to ɛpono no so wɔ mʼanim.
and you have put Bread of the Presentation on the table before Me continually.
31 “Momfa sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔaboro nyɛ kaneadua. Kaneadua no ase, nʼabaa, nkanea no nhwiren ne ɛho nsiesie no nyinaa nyɛ adeɛ baako.
And you have made a lampstand of pure gold; the lampstand is made of beaten work; its base, and its branch, its calyxes, its knobs, and its flowers are of the same;
32 Kaneadua a ɛhyɛ mfimfini no bɛnya nkorabata nsia a mmiɛnsa wɔ ɛfa na mmiɛnsa nso wɔ ɛfa.
and six branches are coming out of its sides, three branches of the lampstand out of the first side, and three branches of the lampstand out of the second side;
33 Momfa nhwiren mmiɛnsa nsiesie nkorabata biara ho.
three calyxes made like almonds in one branch, a knob and a flower, and three calyxes made like almonds in one branch, a knob and a flower—so for the six branches which are coming out from the lampstand.
34 Na kaneadua no, momfa nhwiren a ɛyɛ fɛ nni adwini mfa nsiesie no.
And in the lampstand [are] four calyxes made like almonds, its knobs and its flowers;
35 Nhwiren no bi bɛwɔ ne dua no ase wɔ nkorabata mmienu biara ase. Afei, nhwiren no bi bɛwɔ nkorabata mmienu a ɛwɔ aseɛ no ase, ɛnna ebi nso bɛwɔ nkorabata mmienu a ɛwɔ ɔsoro no so.
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, for the six branches which are coming out of the lampstand;
36 Saa nneɛma a wɔde siesie kaneadua no ne ne nkorabata no nyinaa nyɛ adeɛ fua a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ amapa a wɔaboro ayɛ.
their knobs and their branches are of the same, all of it one beaten work of pure gold;
37 “Monyɛ nkanea dua ntuatuaho nson wɔ kaneadua no ho wɔ ɛkwan bi so a ne hyerɛn no bɛto ne hann agu nʼanim.
and you have made its seven lamps, and [one] has caused its lamps to go up, and it has given light over [and] beyond its front.
38 Kanea ntomaban akapɛ no ne ne mpampaa no nso, momfa sikakɔkɔɔ amapa nyɛ.
And its snuffers and its snuff dishes [are] of pure gold;
39 Sikakɔkɔɔ kilogram aduasa ɛnan na ɛho bɛhia sɛ mode yɛ kaneadua no ne ɛho nneɛma nyinaa.
he makes it of a talent of pure gold, with all these vessels.
40 Biribiara a mobɛyɛ no nso, monyɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ sɛdeɛ merekyerɛ mo wɔ bepɔ so ha yi no.
Now see and make [them] by their pattern which you are shown on the mountain.”
