Na Helu 8
1 OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
2 E olelo aku oe ia Aarona, a e I aku ia ia, penei, I ka manawa e kuni ai oe i na kukui, e hoomalamalama na ipu ehiku imua o ka ipukukui.
“Speak to Aaron [Light-bringer], and tell him, ‘When you light the lamp candles, the seven lamp candles shall give light in front of the menorah ·lamp·.’”
3 Pela no o Aarona i hana'i; kuni iho la ia i kona mau kukui imua o ka ipukukui, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose.
Aaron [Light-bringer] did so. He lit its lamp candles to light the area in front of the menorah ·lamp·, as Adonai enjoined Moses [Drawn out].
4 A o keia hana o ka ipukukui, he gula i wiliia, mai kona kumu a hiki i kona mau pua, he hana i Wiliia: mamuli o ke kumuhoolike a Iehova i hoike ai ia Mose, pela no ia i hana'i i ka ipukukui.
This was the workmanship of the menorah ·lamp·, beaten work of gold. From its base to its flowers, it was beaten work: according to the pattern which Adonai had shown Moses [Drawn out], so he made the menorah ·lamp·.
5 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
6 E lawe oe i na Levi maiwaena mai o na mamo a Iseraela, a e huikala ia lakou.
“Take the Levites [Descendants of United with] from among the children of Israel [God prevails], and cleanse them.
7 Penei kau hana ana ia lakou, e huikala ai ia lakou: E kapipi i ka wai huikala maluna o lakou, a e amu lakou i ko lakou kino a pau, a e holoi lakou i ko lakou mau aahu, a e huikala ia lakou iho.
You shall do this to them, to cleanse them: sprinkle the water of cleansing on them, let them shave their whole bodies with a razor, and let them wash their clothes, and cleanse themselves.
8 Alaila, e lawe lakou i ka bipikeikikane, me kana mohaiai, he palaoa i kawili pu ia me ka aila; a me kekahi bipikeikikane hou e ae i mohaihala.
Then let them take a young bull, and its meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil; and another young bull you shall take for a sin offering.
9 A e kai mai oe i na Levi imua o ka halelewa o ke anaina; a e hoakoakoa mai hoi oe i ke anaina kanaka a pau o na mamo a Iseraela.
You shall present the Levites [Descendants of United with] before the Tent of Meeting. You shall assemble the whole congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails].
10 A e kai mai oe i na Levi imua o Iehova; a e kau aku na mamo a Iseraela i ko lakou mau lima maluna o na Levi:
You shall present the Levites [Descendants of United with] before Adonai. The children of Israel [God prevails] shall lay their hands on the Levites [Descendants of United with],
11 A e hoali aku o Aarona i na Levi io a ia nei, imua o Iehova, i mohaihoali o na mamo a Iseraela, i lilo ai lakou i poe e lawe i ka hana a Iehova.
and Aaron [Light-bringer] shall offer the Levites [Descendants of United with] before Adonai for a wave offering, on the behalf of the children of Israel [God prevails], that it may be theirs to do the service of Adonai.
12 A e kau aku na Levi i ko lakou mau lima maluna o na poo o na bipikane: a e kaumaha oe i kekahi i mohaihala, a i kekahi i mohaikuni na Iehova, i mea hookalahala no na Levi
“The Levites [Descendants of United with] shall lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and you shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering to Adonai, to make atonement for the Levites [Descendants of United with].
13 A e hoonoho oe i na Levi imua o Aarona, a imua o kana mau keiki, a e mohai aku ia lakou i mohai na Iehova.
You shall set the Levites [Descendants of United with] before Aaron [Light-bringer], and before his sons, and offer them as a wave offering to Adonai.
14 Pela oe e hookaawale ai i na Levi maiwaena mai o na mamo a Iseraela; a e lilo na Levi no'u.
Thus you shall separate the Levites [Descendants of United with] from among the children of Israel [God prevails], and the Levites [Descendants of United with] shall be mine.
15 A mahope iho, e komo na Levi e hana ma ka halelewa anaina; a e huikala oe ia lakou, a e mohai oe ia lakou i mohai.
“After that, the Levites [Descendants of United with] shall go in to do the service of the Tent of Meeting: and you shall cleanse them, and offer them as a wave offering.
16 No ka mea, ua lilo loa lakou no'u maiwaena mai o na mamo a Iseraela, i panai no ka poe hanau mua, no na hanau mua a pau o na mamo a Iseraela, ua lawe au ia lakou no'u.
For they are wholly given to me from among the children of Israel [God prevails]; instead of all who open the womb, even the firstborn of all the children of Israel [God prevails], I have taken them to me.
17 No ka mea, no'u no na hiapo a pau o na mamo a Iseraela, o ka ke kanaka, a me ka ka holoholona; i ka la a'u i luku ai na hanau mua a pau ma Aigupita, hoolaa iho la au ia lakou nei no'u.
For all the firstborn among the children of Israel [God prevails] are mine, both man and animal. On the day that I struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], I sanctified them for myself.
18 A ua lawe au i na Levi i panai no na hanau mua a pau o na mamo a Iseraela.
I have taken the Levites [Descendants of United with] instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel [God prevails].
19 A ua haawi aku au i na Levi i haawina no Aarona a no kana mau keiki, maiwaena o na mamo a Iseraela, e hana i ka hana a ka poe mamo a Iseraela ma ka halelewa anaina, a e hookalahala no na mamo a Iseraela, i ole e lukuia na mamo a Iseraela, i ka wa e hele mai ai na mamo a Iseraela a kokoke i ke keenakapu.
I have given the Levites [Descendants of United with] as a gift to Aaron [Light-bringer] and to his sons from among the children of Israel [God prevails], to do the service of the children of Israel [God prevails] in the Tent of Meeting, and to make atonement for the children of Israel [God prevails]; that there be no plague among the children of Israel [God prevails], when the children of Israel [God prevails] come near to the sanctuary.”
20 A o Mose me Aarona a me ke anaina a pau o na mamo a Iseraela, hana aku la lakou i na Levi e like me na mea a pau a Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose no na Levi; pela no i hana aku ai na mamo a Iseraela ia lakou.
Moses [Drawn out], and Aaron [Light-bringer], and all the congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails] did so to the Levites [Descendants of United with]. According to all that Adonai enjoined Moses [Drawn out] concerning the Levites [Descendants of United with], so the children of Israel [God prevails] did to them.
21 A ua huikalaia na Levi, a holoi iho la lakou i ko lakou aahu; a hoali aku o Aarona ia lakou i mohaihoali imua o Iehova, a hookalahala aku la o Aarona no lakou, i mea e huikala ai ia lakou.
The Levites [Descendants of United with] purified themselves from sin, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron [Light-bringer] offered them for a wave offering before Adonai; and Aaron [Light-bringer] made atonement for them to cleanse them.
22 A mahope iho, komo aku la na Levi iloko e hana i ka lakou hana ma ka halelewa o ke anaina, imua o Aarona a imua o kana mau keiki: e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose no na Levi, pela no lakou i hana aku ai ia lakou.
After that, the Levites [Descendants of United with] went in to do their service in the Tent of Meeting before Aaron [Light-bringer], and before his sons: as Adonai had enjoined Moses [Drawn out] concerning the Levites [Descendants of United with], so they did to them.
23 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
24 Eia ka mea no na Levi; mai ka iwakalua a me kumamalima o na makahiki a keu aku, e hele lakou iloko e hana i ka hana o ka halelewa o ke anaina:
“This is that which belongs to the Levites [Descendants of United with]: from twenty-five years old and upward they shall go in to wait on the service in the work of the Tent of Meeting;
25 A mai ka makahiki he kanalima aku, e hoi lakou mai ka hana aku, aole lakou e hana hou aku.
and from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting on the work, and shall serve no more,
26 Aka, e malama lakou me ko lakou poe hoahanau ma ka halelewa anaina, e kiai ana i ka oihana, aole nae lakou e hana. Pela no oe e hana aku ai i na Levi no ka lakou oihana.
but shall minister with their brothers in the Tent of Meeting, to perform the duty, and shall do no service. You shall do thus to the Levites [Descendants of United with] concerning their duties.”
