1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ:
Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying—
2 “Ũgaaka hema ĩyo nyamũre, nĩo Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri wa mbere.
On the first day of the month, in the first month, shalt thou rear the habitation, of the tent of meeting;
3 Nĩũkaiga ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira thĩinĩ wayo, na ũhakanie ithandũkũ rĩu na gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio.
and thou shalt put therein, the ark of the testimony, —and shalt screen the ark with the veil;
4 Ningĩ nĩũgatoonyia metha na ũmĩigĩrĩre indo ciayo, na ũcibange wega. Ningĩ ũtoonyie mũtĩ wa tawa, na ũũigĩrĩre matawa maguo.
and thou shalt bring in the table, and set in order what is to be arranged thereupon, —and thou shalt bring in the lampstand, and mount the lamps thereof;
5 Ningĩ ũige kĩgongona gĩa thahabu gĩa gũcinĩrwo ũbumba mbere ya Ithandũkũ rĩu rĩa Ũira, na wĩkĩre gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio itoonyero-inĩ rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre.
and thou shalt place the altar of gold for incense, before the ark of the testimony, —and put up the screen for the opening of the habitation;
6 “Iga kĩgongona kĩa maruta ma njino mbere ya itoonyero rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre, na nĩyo Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo;
and thou shalt place the altar for the ascending-sacrifice, —before the opening of the habitation of the tent of meeting;
7 ũige kĩraĩ gĩa gwĩthambĩrwo gatagatĩ ka Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo na kĩgongona, na ũgĩĩkĩre maaĩ.
and thou shalt place the laver between the tent of meeting, and the altar, and shalt put therein water,
8 Aka nja ĩmĩthiũrũrũkĩrie, na wĩkĩre gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio itoonyero-inĩ rĩa nja ĩyo.
And thou shalt put up the court round about, and hang up the screen of the gate of the court.
9 “Oya maguta ma gũitanĩrĩrio, na ũitĩrĩrie hema ĩyo nyamũre na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wayo; mĩamũre na indo ciayo ciothe, na nĩĩgatuĩka theru.
And thou shalt take the oil of anointing, and anoint the habitation and all that is therein, —and shalt hallow it. and all the furniture thereof so shall it be holy.
10 Ningĩ ũitĩrĩrie maguta kĩgongona kĩa maruta ma njino na indo ciakĩo ciothe; wamũre kĩgongona kĩu, nakĩo nĩgĩgatuĩka gĩtheru mũno.
And thou shalt anoint the altar of ascending sacrifice, and all its utensils, —and hallow the altar, so shall the altar be most holy:
11 Itĩrĩria kĩraĩ gĩa gwĩthambĩrwo na kĩgũrũ gĩakĩo maguta, ũciamũre.
and thou shalt anoint the laver and its stand, —and shalt hallow it.
12 “Rehe Harũni na ariũ ake itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, na ũmathambie na maaĩ.
And thou shalt bring near Aaron and his sons, unto the opening of the tent of meeting, —and shalt bathe them in the water;
13 Ningĩ ũhumbe Harũni nguo iria theru, ũmũitĩrĩrie maguta, na ũmwamũre nĩguo andungatĩre arĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
and thou shalt clothe Aaron with the holy garments, —and shalt anoint him and hallow him so shall he minister as priest unto me.
14 Rehe ariũ ake, ũmahumbe kanjũ.
His sons also, shalt thou bring near, —and shalt clothe them with tunics;
15 Maitĩrĩrie maguta o ta ũrĩa ũitĩrĩirie ithe wao, nĩguo mandungatĩre marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai. Gũitĩrĩrio maguta kwao nĩkũmatoonyia ũtungata-inĩ wa ũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa ũgũtũũra njiarwa-inĩ ciothe iria igooka.”
and shalt anoint them as thou didst anoint their father, and they shall minister as priests unto me, —so shall their anointing remain to them for an age-abiding priesthood, to their generations.
16 Nake Musa agĩĩka maũndũ mothe o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
And Moses did, —according to all that Yahweh had commanded him, so did he.
17 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio hema ĩyo nyamũre ĩgĩakwo mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri wa mbere, mwaka-inĩ wa keerĩ.
Thus came it to pass, in the first month, in the second year, on the first of the month, that the habitation was reared.
18 Rĩrĩa Musa aakire hema ĩyo nyamũre, nĩaigire itina handũ ha cio, na akĩrũgamia buremu, agĩtoonyia mĩgamba na akĩrũgamia itugĩ.
Yea Moses reared the habitation, and placed its sockets, and fixed its boards, and fastened its bars, —and reared its pillars.
19 Ningĩ agĩtambũrũkia hema igũrũ rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre na akĩigĩrĩra kĩhumbĩri igũrũ rĩa hema o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
Then spread he abroad the tent upon the habitation, and put the covering of the tent upon it, above, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
20 Agĩcooka akĩoya ihengere cia Ũira, na agĩciiga thĩinĩ wa ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro. Akĩnyiitithania mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩraaya na ithandũkũ, na akĩiga gĩtĩ gĩa tha igũrũ rĩa ithandũkũ rĩu.
And he took and placed the testimony within the ark, and put the staves upon the ark, —and placed the propitiatory upon the ark, above;
21 Ningĩ akĩrehe ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro thĩinĩ wa hema ĩyo nyamũre, na agĩĩkĩra gĩtambaya gĩa kũhakania na akĩhakania ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
and brought in the ark into the habitation, and put up the screening veil, and screened over the ark of the testimony, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
22 Musa akĩiga metha thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo mwena wa gathigathini wa hema ĩyo nyamũre, nja ya gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio
And he placed the table in the tent of meeting, —on the side of the habitation northward, —outside the veil;
23 na akĩigĩrĩra mĩgate igũrũ rĩayo o hau mbere ya Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
and set in order thereupon the arrangement of bread before Yahweh, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
24 Akĩiga mũtĩ wa kũigĩrĩrwo matawa thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo ũngʼetheire metha mwena wa gũthini wa hema ĩyo nyamũre,
And he put the lampstand, in the tent of meeting, over against the table, —on the side of the habitation southward;
25 na agĩakia matawa macio mbere ya Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
and mounted the lamps before Yahweh, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
26 Musa agĩtoonyia kĩgongona gĩa thahabu thĩinĩ wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo hau mbere ya gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio,
And he put the altar of gold in the tent of meeting, —before the veil;
27 na agĩcinĩra ũbumba ũrĩa mũnungi wega ho o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
and burned thereupon the fragrant incense, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
28 Ningĩ agĩcuuria gĩtambaya itoonyero-inĩ rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre.
And he put up the screen of the entrance pertaining to the habitation;
29 Ningĩ akĩiga kĩgongona kĩa maruta ma njino hakuhĩ na itoonyero rĩa hema ĩyo nyamũre, nĩyo Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, na akĩrutĩra magongona ma njino igũrũ rĩakĩo o na magongona ma ngano, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
and, the altar of ascending-sacrifice, put he at the entrance of the habitation of the tent of meeting, —and he caused to ascend thereupon the ascending-sacrifice, and the meal-offering, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
30 Nĩaigire kĩraĩ gĩa gwĩthambĩrwo gatagatĩ ka Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo na kĩgongona na agĩgĩĩkĩra maaĩ ma gwĩthamba,
And he put the laver, between the tent of meeting, and the altar, —and put therein water for bathing;
31 nake Musa na Harũni na ariũ ake magĩtũmĩra maaĩ macio gwĩthamba moko na magũrũ.
and Moses and Aaron and his sons thenceforth bathed thereat, —their hands and their feet;
32 Nĩmethambaga hĩndĩ ciothe magĩtoonya Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo kana magĩkuhĩrĩria kĩgongona o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
when they were entering into the tent of meeting, and when they were drawing near unto the altar, then used they to bathe, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
33 Ningĩ Musa agĩaka nja gũthiũrũrũka hema ĩyo nyamũre na kĩgongona na agĩĩkĩra gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio itoonyero rĩa nja ĩyo. Na nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa akĩrĩkia wĩra ũcio.
And he reared the court round about to the habitation and to the altar, and put up the screen of the gate of the court, —and Moses finished the work.
34 Hĩndĩ ĩyo itu rĩkĩhumbĩra Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, naguo riiri wa Jehova ũkĩiyũra hema ĩyo nyamũre.
Then did the cloud cover the tent of meeting, —and, the glory of Yahweh, filled the habitation;
35 Musa ndangĩahotire gũtoonya Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo tondũ itu rĩaikarĩte igũrũ rĩayo, naguo riiri wa Jehova ũkaiyũra hema ĩyo nyamũre.
and Moses was not able to enter into the tent of meeting, because the cloud had made its habitation thereupon, —and the glory of Yahweh, filled the habitation.
36 Ngʼendo-inĩ ciothe cia andũ a Isiraeli-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe itu rĩoyagwo na igũrũ kuuma hema ĩyo nyamũre, nĩguo moimagaraga;
And whensoever the cloud ascended from off the habitation, then did the sons of Israel set forward, in all their journeyings;
37 no itu rĩĩaga kuoywo na igũrũ, nao makaaga kuumagara, nginya mũthenya ũrĩa rĩkoywo na igũrũ.
but if the cloud did not ascend, then did they not set forward—until the day when it did ascend.
38 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio itu rĩa Jehova rĩaikaraga igũrũ wa hema ĩyo nyamũre mũthenya, naguo mwaki wakoragwo itu-inĩ rĩu ũtukũ, rĩgakĩonagwo nĩ nyũmba yothe ya Isiraeli mahinda mothe ngʼendo-inĩ ciao ciothe.
For, the cloud of Yahweh, was upon the habitation by day, and, a fire, came to be by night therein, —in the sight of all the house of Israel in all their journeyings.
