1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, wɔmmɔ afɔdeɛ mma me.
Speak to the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering.
3 “Saa nneɛma a ɛdidi so yi mu na wɔmfiri mmɔ me afɔdeɛ no: “sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, kɔbere,
And this [is] the offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver and brass,

And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' [hair].

And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and shittim wood.

Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breast-plate.
8 “Mepɛ sɛ Israelfoɔ si asɔredan kronkron ma me, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, mɛtumi atena wɔn mu.
And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.
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 I show thee [after] the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all its instruments, even so shall ye 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 shall make an ark [of] shittim wood: two cubits and a half [shall be] its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its hight.
11 Na momfa sikakɔkɔɔ mapa nnura ɛho ne emu nyinaa.
And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold around it.

And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put [them] in its four corners; and two rings [shall be] in the one side of it, and two rings in the other side of it.
13 Fa okuo sene mpoma, na fa sikakɔkɔɔ duradura ho,
And thou shalt make staffs [of] shittim wood, and overlay them with gold.
14 na fa hyehyɛ nkawa no mu na wɔde apam adaka no asoa.
And thou shalt put the staffs into the rings by the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with them.
15 Monnyiyi nnua a wɔde soa adaka no mfiri nkawa no mu. Momma ɛnhyehyɛ mu afebɔɔ.
The staffs shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be taken from it.
16 Mowie adaka no a, momfa ɛboɔ a matwerɛ Mmaransɛm Edu no agu so no nto mu.
And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee.
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 thou shalt make a mercy-seat [of] pure gold: two cubits and a half [shall be] its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth.

And thou shalt make two cherubim [of] gold, [of] beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy-seat.
19 Fa Kerubim no tetare adaka no ti ne nʼanafoɔ na ɛne adaka no nkatasoɔ no nyɛ mua.
And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: [even] of the mercy-seat shall ye 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 shall stretch forth [their] wings on high, covering the mercy-seat with their wings, and their faces [shall look] one to another; towards the mercy-seat shall the faces of the cherubim be.
21 Momfa ɛboɔ twerɛpono a mede bɛma mo no nto adaka no mu, na momfa ne ti no nkata so.
And thou shalt put the mercy-seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
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 there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy-seat, from between the two cherubim which [are] upon the ark of the testimony, of all [things] which I will give thee in commandment to the children 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.
Thou shalt also make a table [of] shittim wood: its length shall be two cubits, and its breadth a cubit, and its hight a cubit and a half.
24 Momfa sikakɔkɔɔ nnura ho na momfa sikakɔkɔɔ hankra ntwa ho nhyia.
And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make to it a crown of gold around it.

And thou shalt make to it a border of an hand-breadth around it, and thou shalt make a golden crown to its border around it.

And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that [are] on its four feet.
27 twɛtwɛwaso wɔ soro. Wɔde nnua no bɛhyehyɛ saa nkawa no mu na wɔde apagya ɛpono no asoa.
Over against the border shall the rings be for places of the staffs to bear the table.
28 Fa okuo yɛ nnua no, na fa sikakɔkɔɔ dura ho.
And thou shalt make the staffs [of] shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them.

30 Ɛda biara, fa burodo to ɛpono no so wɔ mʼanim.
And thou shalt set upon the table show-bread before me always.

And thou shalt make a candlestick [of] pure gold: [of] beaten work shall the candlestick be made: its shaft, and its branches, its bowls, its knobs, and its flowers, shall be of the same.
32 Kaneadua a ɛhyɛ mfimfini no bɛnya nkorabata nsia a mmiɛnsa wɔ ɛfa na mmiɛnsa nso wɔ ɛfa.
And six branches shall extend from the sides of it; three branches of the candlestick from the one side, and three branches of the candlestick from the other side:
33 Momfa nhwiren mmiɛnsa nsiesie nkorabata biara ho.
Three bowls made like to almonds, [with] a knob and a flower in one branch; and three bowls made like almonds in the other branch, [with] a knob and a flower: so in the six branches that project from the candlestick.
34 Na kaneadua no, momfa nhwiren a ɛyɛ fɛ nni adwini mfa nsiesie no.
And in the candlesticks [shall be] four bowls made like to almonds, [with] their knobs and their 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 [there shall be] 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 that project from the candlestick.
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 shall be of the same: all of it [shall be] one beaten work [of] pure gold.

And look that thou make [them] after their pattern, which was shown thee on the mount.
