< Exodus 37 >

1 After this, Bezaleel made the Arke of Shittim wood, two cubites and an halfe long and a cubite and an halfe broade, and a cubite and an halfe hie:
UBhezaleli wasewenza umtshokotsho ngesihlahla sesinga, ubude bawo babuzingalo ezimbili lengxenye, lobubanzi bawo babuyingalo lengxenye, lokuphakama kwawo kwakuyingalo lengxenye.
2 And ouerlayde it with fine golde within and without, and made a crowne of golde to it rounde about,
Wawuhuqa ngegolide elicwengekileyo ngaphakathi langaphandle, wawenzela umqolo wegolide inhlangothi zonke.
3 And cast for it foure rings of golde for the foure corners of it: that is, two rings for the one side of it, and two rings for the other side thereof.
Wawubumbela ngokuncibilikisa futhi amasongo amane egolide enyaweni zawo zozine, kuze kuthi amasongo amabili ayekolunye uhlangothi lamasongo amabili kolunye uhlangothi.
4 Also he made barres of Shittim wood, and couered them with golde,
Wenza imijabo ngesihlahla sesinga, wayihuqa ngegolide.
5 And put the barres in the rings by the sides of the Arke, to beare the Arke.
Wayifaka imijabo emasongweni enhlangothini zomtshokotsho ukuthwala umtshokotsho.
6 And he made the Merciseate of pure golde: two cubites and an halfe was the length thereof, and one cubite and an halfe the breadth thereof.
Wenza isihlalo somusa ngegolide elicwengekileyo, ubude baso babuzingalo ezimbili lengxenye, lobubanzi baso babuyingalo lengxenye.
7 And he made two Cherubims of gold, vpon the two endes of the Merciseate: euen of worke beaten with the hammer made he them.
Wenza amakherubhi amabili ngegolide, wawenza ngomsebenzi okhandiweyo, avela emaphethelweni womabili esihlalo somusa,
8 One Cherub on the one ende, and another Cherub on the other ende: of the Merciseate made he the Cherubims, at ye two endes thereof.
elinye ikherubhi livela ephethelweni lwaloluhlangothi, lelinye ikherubhi livela ephethelweni lolunye uhlangothi; wawenza amakherubhi amabili evela esihlalweni somusa evela emaphethelweni womabili aso.
9 And the Cherubims spread out their wings on hie, and couered the Merciseat with their wings, and their faces were one towards another: towarde the Merciseat were the faces of the Cherubims.
Amakherubhi elula impiko ezimbili ngaphezulu, embomboza isihlalo somusa ngempiko zawo, lobuso bawo babukhangelene; ubuso bamakherubhi babukhangele isihlalo somusa.
10 Also he made ye Table of Shittim wood: two cubites was the length thereof, and a cubite the breadth thereof, and a cubite and an halfe the height of it.
Njalo wenza itafula ngesihlahla sesinga, ubude balo babuzingalo ezimbili, lobubanzi balo babuyingalo, lokuphakama kwalo kwakuyingalo lengxenye.
11 And hee ouerlayde it with fine golde, and made thereto a crowne of golde round about.
Walihuqa ngegolide elicwengekileyo, walenzela umqolo wegolide inhlangothi zonke.
12 Also he made thereto a border of an hand breadth round about, and made vpon the border a crowne of golde round about.
Walenzela ibhanti elilingana lobubanzi besandla inhlangothi zonke, wenzela ibhanti lalo umqolo wegolide inhlangothi zonke.
13 And he cast for it foure rings of gold, and put the rings in the foure corners that were in the foure feete thereof.
Walibumbela ngokuncibilikisa amasongo amane egolide, wawafaka amasongo ezingonsini ezine ezazisenyaweni zozine zalo.
14 Against the border were the rings, as places for the barres to beare the Table.
Eduze lebhanti kwakulamasongo, indawo zemijabo yokuthwala itafula.
15 And he made the barres of Shittim wood, and couered them with golde to beare the Table.
Wenza lemijabo ngesihlahla sesinga, wayihuqa ngegolide, ukuthwala itafula.
16 Also he made the instruments for the Table of pure golde: dishes for it, and incense cuppes for it, and goblets for it, and couerings for it, wherewith it should be couered.
Wazenza izitsha ezaziphezu kwetafula, imiganu yalo lenkezo zalo lenditshi zalo lezitsha zokuthulula, ngegolide elicwengekileyo.
17 Likewise he made the Candlesticke of pure golde: of worke beaten out with the hammer made he the Candlesticke: and his shaft, and his branche, his bolles, his knops, and his floures were of one piece.
Wenza uluthi lwesibane ngegolide elicwengekileyo; ngomsebenzi okhandiweyo walwenza uluthi lwesibane, isisekelo salo, lesiqu salo, imbizana zalo, iziduku zalo, lamaluba alo, kwakuvela kulo.
18 And sixe branches came out of the sides thereof: three branches of the Candlesticke out of the one side of it, and three branches of the Candlesticke out of the other side of it.
Lengatsha eziyisithupha ziphuma enhlangothini zalo, ingatsha ezintathu zoluthi lwesibane kolunye uhlangothi lwalo lengatsha ezintathu zoluthi lwesibane kolunye uhlangothi lwalo.
19 In one branche three bolles made like almondes, a knop and a floure: and in another branch three bolles made like almondes, a knop and a floure: and so throughout the sixe branches that proceeded out of the Candlesticke.
Egatsheni olunye kwakulembizana ezintathu ezenziwe zafanana lamaluba e-alimondi, isiduku leluba; lembizana ezintathu ezenziwe zafanana lamaluba e-alimondi kolunye ugatsha, isiduku leluba; kwakunjalo ngengatsha eziyisithupha eziphuma eluthini lwesibane.
20 And vpon the Candlesticke were foure bolles after the facion of almondes, the knoppes thereof and the floures thereof:
Njalo kwakukhona eluthini lwesibane imbizana ezine ezenziwe zafanana lamaluba e-alimondi, iziduku zalo lamaluba alo;
21 That is, vnder euery two branches a knop made thereof, and a knop vnder the second branch thereof, and a knop vnder the thirde branche thereof, according to the sixe branches comming out of it.
kwakukhona-ke isiduku ngaphansi kwengatsha ezimbili ezivela kulo, lesiduku ngaphansi kwengatsha ezimbili ezivela kulo, lesiduku ngaphansi kwengatsha ezimbili ezivela kulo, kuzo ingatsha eziyisithupha eziphuma kulo.
22 Their knops and their branches were of the same: it was all one beaten worke of pure gold.
Iziduku zazo lezingatsha zazo zazivela kulo; konke okwalo kwakungumsebenzi munye okhandiweyo wegolide elicwengekileyo.
23 And he made for it seuen lampes with the snuffers, and snufdishes thereof of pure golde.
Wasesenza izibane zalo eziyisikhombisa, lezindlawu zalo, lemiganu yalo yomlotha, ngegolide elicwengekileyo.
24 Of a talent of pure golde made he it with all the instruments thereof.
Walenza ngethalenta legolide elicwengekileyo, lazo zonke izitsha zalo.
25 Furthermore he made the perfume altar of Shittim wood: the length of it was a cubite, and the breadth of it a cubite (it was square) and two cubites hie, and the hornes thereof were of ye same.
Njalo wenza ilathi lempepha ngesihlahla sesinga; ubude balo babuyingalo lobubanzi balo babuyingalo, lilingana inhlangothi zozine; lokuphakama kwalo kwakuzingalo ezimbili; impondo zalo zazivela kulo.
26 And he couered it with pure gold, both the top and the sides thereof rounde about, and the hornes of it, and made vnto it a crowne of golde round about.
Walihuqa ngegolide elicwengekileyo, ingaphezulu lemiduli yalo inhlangothi zonke lempondo zalo; walenzela-ke umqolo wegolide inhlangothi zonke.
27 And he made two rings of gold for it, vnder the crowne thereof in the two corners of the two sides thereof, to put barres in for to beare it therewith.
Waselenzela amasongo amabili egolide, ngaphansi komqolo walo, ezingonsini ezimbili zalo, enhlangothini ezimbili zalo, ukuba yindawo yemijabo yokulithwala.
28 Also he made the barres of Shittim wood, and ouerlayde them with golde.
Wayenza imijabo ngesihlahla sesinga, wayihuqa ngegolide.
29 And he made the holy anointing oyle, and the sweete pure incense after ye apothecaries arte.
Wenza amafutha angcwele okugcoba, lempepha ecwengekileyo yamakha alephunga elimnandi, njengokwenza komenzi wamakha.
