Exodus 25
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, that they bring firstfruits to me: of every man that offereth of his own accord, you shall take them.
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, wɔmmɔ afɔdeɛ mma me.
3 And these are the things you must take: gold, and silver, and brass,
“Saa nneɛma a ɛdidi so yi mu na wɔmfiri mmɔ me afɔdeɛ no: “sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, kɔbere,
4 Violet and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine linen, and goats’ hair,
ntoma tuntum, koogyan bibire tam; koogyan tam, serekye, abirekyie ho nwi,
5 And rams’ skins dyed red, and violet skins, and setim wood:
odwennini nhoma a wɔahyɛ no kɔkɔɔ, mmirekyie nwoma a wɔahyɛ, okuo dua,
6 Oil to make lights: spices for ointment, and for sweetsmelling incense:
kanea ngo, ɔsra ngo, nnuhwam a wɔhyeɛ,
7 Onyx stones, and precious stones to adorn the ephod and the rational.
apopobibirieboɔ, aboɔdemmoɔ a wɔde bɛtuatua asɔfotadeɛ ne adaaboɔ no mu.
8 And they shall make me a sanctuary, and I will dwell in the midst of them:
“Mepɛ sɛ Israelfoɔ si asɔredan kronkron ma me, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, mɛtumi atena wɔn mu.
9 According to all the likeness of the tabernacle which I will shew thee, and of all the vessels for the service thereof: and thus you shall make it:
Me fie no bɛyɛ ntomadan. Mɛkyerɛ mo ɛkwan a mepɛ sɛ mosi saa dan no ne sɛdeɛ mobɛsiesie mu na moagyina so asi.
10 Frame an ark of setim wood, the length whereof shall be of two cubits and a half: the breadth, a cubit and a half: the height, likewise, a cubit and a half.
“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.
11 And thou shalt overlay it with the purest gold within and without: and over it thou shalt make a golden crown round about:
Na momfa sikakɔkɔɔ mapa nnura ɛho ne emu nyinaa.
12 And four golden rings, which thou shall put at the four corners of the ark: let two rings be on the one side, and two on the other.
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.
13 Thou shalt make bars also of setim wood, and shalt overlay them with gold.
Fa okuo sene mpoma, na fa sikakɔkɔɔ duradura ho,
14 And thou shalt put them in through the rings that are in the sides of the ark, that it may be carried on them.
na fa hyehyɛ nkawa no mu na wɔde apam adaka no asoa.
15 And they shall be always in the rings, neither shall they at any time be drawn out of them.
Monnyiyi nnua a wɔde soa adaka no mfiri nkawa no mu. Momma ɛnhyehyɛ mu afebɔɔ.
16 And thou shalt put in the ark the testimony which I will give thee.
Mowie adaka no a, momfa ɛboɔ a matwerɛ Mmaransɛm Edu no agu so no nto mu.
17 Thou shalt make also a propitiatory of the purest gold: the length thereof shall be two cubits and a half, and the breadth a cubit and a half.
“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.
18 Thou shalt make also two cherubims of beaten gold, on the two sides of the oracle.
Momfa sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔaboro nyɛ Kerubim mmienu. Momfa ɔbaako nsi adaka no nkatasoɔ atifi na momfa ɔbaako nsi anafoɔ.
19 Let one cherub be on the one side, and the other on the other.
Fa Kerubim no tetare adaka no ti ne nʼanafoɔ na ɛne adaka no nkatasoɔ no nyɛ mua.
20 Let them cover both sides of the propitiatory, spreading their wings, and covering the oracle, and let them look one towards the other, their faces being turned towards the propitiatory wherewith the ark is to be covered.
Kerubim a wɔyɛ abɔfoɔ no bɛdi nhwɛanimu a wɔasisi wɔn ti ase rehwɛ mpatadwa no na wɔatrɛtrɛ wɔn ntaban mu akata so.
21 In which thou shalt put the testimony that I will give thee.
Momfa ɛboɔ twerɛpono a mede bɛma mo no nto adaka no mu, na momfa ne ti no nkata so.
22 Thence will I give orders, and will speak to thee over the propitiatory, and from the midst of the two cherubims, which shall be upon the ark of the testimony, all things which I will command the children of Israel by thee.
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.
23 Thou shalt make a table also of setim wood, of two cubits in length, and a cubit in breadth, and a cubit and half in height.
“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.
24 And thou shalt overlay it with the purest gold: and thou shalt make to it a golden ledge round about.
Momfa sikakɔkɔɔ nnura ho na momfa sikakɔkɔɔ hankra ntwa ho nhyia.
25 And to the ledge itself a polished crown, four inches high: and over the same another little golden crown.
Yɛ adaka no ho mfomfamho a ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ nsateakwaa ɛnan twa ɛpono no ntɛntɛnoa ho hyia, na fa sikakɔkɔɔ hankra fa ho.
26 Thou shalt prepare also four golden rings, and shalt put them in the four corners of the same table over each foot.
Yɛ sikakɔkɔɔ nkawa ɛnan na fa nkawa ɛnan no tuatua ne nan ɛnan no biara akyi
27 Under the crown shall the golden rings be, that the bars may be put through them, and the table may be carried.
twɛtwɛwaso wɔ soro. Wɔde nnua no bɛhyehyɛ saa nkawa no mu na wɔde apagya ɛpono no asoa.
28 The bars also themselves thou shalt make of setim wood, and shalt overlay them with gold to bear up the table.
Fa okuo yɛ nnua no, na fa sikakɔkɔɔ dura ho.
29 Thou shalt prepare also dishes, and bowls, censers, and cups, wherein the libations are to be offered of the purest gold.
Momfa sikakɔkɔɔ amapa nyɛ nwowaa, ntere, nhina ne nsatoa.
30 And thou shalt set upon the table loaves of proposition in my sight always.
Ɛda biara, fa burodo to ɛpono no so wɔ mʼanim.
31 Thou shalt make also a candlestick of beaten work of the finest gold, the shaft thereof, and the branches, the cups, and the bowls, and the lilies going forth from it.
“Momfa sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔaboro nyɛ kaneadua. Kaneadua no ase, nʼabaa, nkanea no nhwiren ne ɛho nsiesie no nyinaa nyɛ adeɛ baako.
32 Six branches shall come out of the sides, three out of the one side, and three out of the other.
Kaneadua a ɛhyɛ mfimfini no bɛnya nkorabata nsia a mmiɛnsa wɔ ɛfa na mmiɛnsa nso wɔ ɛfa.
33 Three cups as it were nuts to every branch, and a bowl withal, and a lily; and three cups, likewise of the fashion of nuts in the other branch, and a bowl withal, and a lily. Such shall be the work of the six branches, that are to come out from the shaft:
Momfa nhwiren mmiɛnsa nsiesie nkorabata biara ho.
34 And in the candlestick itself shall be four cups in the manner of a nut, and at every one, bowls and lilies.
Na kaneadua no, momfa nhwiren a ɛyɛ fɛ nni adwini mfa nsiesie no.
35 Bowls under two branches in three places, which together make six coming forth out of one shaft.
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.
36 And both the bowls and the branches shall be of the same beaten work of the purest gold.
Saa nneɛma a wɔde siesie kaneadua no ne ne nkorabata no nyinaa nyɛ adeɛ fua a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ amapa a wɔaboro ayɛ.
37 Thou shalt make also seven lamps, and shalt set them upon the candlestick, to give light over against.
“Monyɛ nkanea dua ntuatuaho nson wɔ kaneadua no ho wɔ ɛkwan bi so a ne hyerɛn no bɛto ne hann agu nʼanim.
38 The snuffers also and where the snuffings shall be put out, shall be made of the purest gold.
Kanea ntomaban akapɛ no ne ne mpampaa no nso, momfa sikakɔkɔɔ amapa nyɛ.
39 The whole weight of the candlestick with all the furniture thereof shall be a talent of the purest gold.
Sikakɔkɔɔ kilogram aduasa ɛnan na ɛho bɛhia sɛ mode yɛ kaneadua no ne ɛho nneɛma nyinaa.
40 Look and make it according to the pattern, that was shewn thee in the mount.
Biribiara a mobɛyɛ no nso, monyɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ sɛdeɛ merekyerɛ mo wɔ bepɔ so ha yi no.
