2 Mose 40
1 Afei Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Bosome a ɛdi ɛkan no ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan no na si Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no.
On the day of the first month, on the first of the month, shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of meeting.
3 Wosi wie a, fa Apam Adaka a Mmaransɛm Edu no wɔ mu no si mu. Na fa ntwamutam no tware Apam Adaka no anim ma ɛnhyɛ kronkron mu kronkron hɔ.
And thou shalt put in it the ark of the testimony, and shalt cover the ark with the veil.
4 Afei, fa ɛpono no bɛsi hɔ na fa ɛho nneɛma nyinaa gu so na fa kaneadua no bra na sɔ kanea no.
And thou shalt bring in the table, and set in order the things that are to be set in order upon it. And thou shalt bring in the candlestick and light its lamps.
5 Fa sikakɔkɔɔ afɔrebukyia a wɔbɛhye aduhwam wɔ so no bɛsi Apam Adaka no anim. Fa ɛpono no nkatanimu sɛn Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ano.
And thou shalt set the golden altar for the incense before the ark of the testimony; and hang up the curtain of the entrance to the tabernacle.
6 “Fa ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ afɔrebukyia no si Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ɛkwan ano.
And thou shalt set the altar of burnt-offering before the entrance of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting.
7 Fa atam no si Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ne afɔrebukyia no ntam na hyɛ no nsuo ma.
And thou shalt set the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and shalt put water in it.
8 Afei, siesie adihɔ bi twa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ho hyia na fa nsɛnanimu no sɛn ne kwan no ano.
And thou shalt fix the court round about, and hang up the curtain at the gate of the court.
9 “Fa srango no na pete gu Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no so baabiara ne biribiara a ɛwɔ mu ne nneɛma a ɛwɔ hɔ nyinaa ne nkonnwa so, na fa te ho.
And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that is in it, and shalt hallow it, and all its utensils; and it shall be holy.
10 Ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ afɔrebukyia no ne ɛho nneɛma nyinaa nso, pete ɔsra ngo no bi gu so na te ho na ɛnyɛ kronkron.
And thou shalt anoint the altar of burnt-offering, and all its utensils; and thou shalt hallow the altar, and the altar shall be most holy.
11 Afei, fa ngo no bi sra atam no ne ne ntaamu no so fa te ho.
And thou shalt anoint the laver and its stand, and hallow it.
12 “Afei, fa Aaron ne ne mmammarima no bra Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ɛkwan ano na fa nsuo hohoro wɔn ho
And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons near, at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and bathe them with water.
13 na fa atadeɛ kronkron no hyɛ Aaron, na sra no ngo na ne ho nte na ɔmmɛyɛ me ɔsɔfoɔ.
And thou shalt clothe Aaron with the holy garments, and anoint him, and hallow him, that he may serve me as priest.
14 Afei, fa ne mmammarima no bra na fa wɔn ntadeɛ hyehyɛ wɔn
And thou shalt bring his sons near, and clothe them with vests.
15 na pete ngo gu wɔn so sɛdeɛ woyɛɛ wɔn agya no, sɛdeɛ wɔbɛsom me sɛ asɔfoɔ. Wɔn ngosra no bɛtena hɔ daa firi awo ntoatoasoɔ so akɔsi awo ntoatoasoɔ so. Na daa wɔn asefoɔ bɛyɛ asɔfoɔ.”
And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father, that they may serve me as priests. And their anointing shall be to them an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.
16 Enti, Mose kɔ kɔyɛɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade akyerɛ no no.
And Moses did so: as Jehovah had commanded him, so did he.
17 Afe a ɛtɔ so mmienu no mu bosome a ɛdi ɛkan no ɛda a ɛdi ɛkan no, wɔkekaa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no sisii animu.
And it came to pass in the first month in the second year, on the first of the month, that the tabernacle was set up.
18 Mose sii Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no; ɔde nsisisoɔ no sisii wɔn afa, de nnyinasoɔ no hyehyɛɛ mu de mmeamu nnua beabeaa mu de mpunan sisii wɔn afa.
And Moses set up the tabernacle, and put in its bases, and fixed its boards, and put in its bars, and set up its pillars.
19 Afei, ɔde nkurusoɔ no kuruu mponnwa no so de ne ngugusoɔ guguu so sane de ngugusoɔ a ɛdi akyire kuruu so sɛdeɛ Awurade se ɔnyɛ no.
And he spread the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above over it; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
20 Ɔde aboɔ a wɔatwerɛ Mmaransɛm Edu no wɔ so no guu Apam Adaka no mu de nnua a wɔdebɛsoa no sosɔɔ mu. Ɔde ne nkatasoɔ a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ayɛ a ɛyɛ mpata nkatasoɔ no kataa so.
And he took and put the testimony into the ark, and put the staves in the ark, and put the mercy-seat above on the ark.
21 Afei, ɔde Apam Adaka no bɛsii Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu de ntwamutam no twaa mu, sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no.
And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and hung up the veil of separation, and covered the ark of the testimony; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
22 Afei, ɔde ɛpono no sii Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no atifi fam wɔ ntwamutam no akyi,
And he put the table in the tent of meeting, on the side of the tabernacle northward, outside the veil,
23 de Ɔkyerɛ Burodo no too so wɔ Awurade anim sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no.
and arranged the bread in order upon it before Jehovah; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
24 Ɔde kaneadua no sii ɛpono no nkyɛn wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no anafoɔ fam.
And he put the candlestick in the tent of meeting, opposite to the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.
25 Afei, ɔsɔɔ kanea no wɔ Awurade anim sɛdeɛ Awurade kyerɛɛ no no pɛpɛɛpɛ,
And he lighted the lamps before Jehovah; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
26 ɛnna ɔde sikakɔkɔɔ afɔrebukyia sii ntwamutam no ho pɛɛ wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu.
And he put the golden altar in the tent of meeting before the veil.
27 Afei, wɔde ohwam hyee nnuhwam sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no.
And he burnt on it fragrant incense; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
28 Ɔde Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ano nsɛnanotam sɛnee ano.
And he hung up the curtain of the entrance to the tabernacle.
29 Ɔde afɔrebukyia a wɔbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ wɔ so no si bɛn Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan ɛkwan no ano, ɛnna ɔbɔɔ so ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne aduane afɔdeɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no.
And he put the altar of burnt-offering at the entrance to the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and offered on it the burnt-offering and the oblation; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
30 Yei akyi, ɔde atam a wɔsi mu nneɛma no sii Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ne afɔrebukyia no ntam na wɔhyɛɛ no nsuo ma sɛdeɛ asɔfoɔ no bɛnya bi ahohoro wɔn ho.
And he set the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it for washing.
31 Mose ne Aaron ne Aaron mmammarima hohoroo wɔn nsa ho ne wɔn nan ase wɔ hɔ.
And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet out of it:
32 Ɛberɛ biara a wɔbɛfa afɔrebukyia no ho akɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu no, wɔgyina hohoroo wɔn ho sɛdeɛ Awurade kyerɛɛ Mose no.
when they went into the tent of meeting, and when they drew near to the altar, they washed; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
33 Ɔsii biribi twaa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ne afɔrebukyia no ho hyiaeɛ na wɔde nsɛnanotam sɛnee ano. Enti Mose yɛɛ yei de wiee nʼadwumayɛ.
And he set up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and hung up the curtain of the gate of the court. And so Moses finished the work.
34 Omununkum no bɛkataa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no so maa Awurade animuonyam hyɛɛ no ma.
And the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle.
35 Esiane sɛ na omununkum no asi wɔ hɔ no enti, Mose antumi ankɔ mu na Awurade animuonyam hyɛɛ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ma.
And Moses could not enter into the tent of meeting, for the cloud abode on it, and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle.
36 Ɛberɛ biara a omununkum no bɛpagya ne ho atu atene no, na Israelfoɔ no nso di akyire.
And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel journeyed in all their journeys.
37 Na sɛ ɛgyina a, na wɔn nso agyina kɔsi sɛ ɛbɛtu atene bio.
And if the cloud were not taken up, then they did not journey until the day that it was taken up.
38 Awiaberɛ mu deɛ, Awurade omununkum no gyina Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no so na sɛ ɛduru anadwo a, na ogya asɔ wɔ omununkum no mu sɛdeɛ Israelfoɔ no nyinaa bɛhunu. Yei toaa so saa ara wɔ wɔn akwantuo no nyinaa mu.
For the cloud of Jehovah was on the tabernacle by day, and fire was in it by night, before the eyes of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
