Mose 2 40
1 Azɔ la, Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 “Tu agbadɔ la le ɣleti gbãtɔ ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ dzi.
On the first day of the first month shall you set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
3 Tsɔ nubablaɖaka si me Se Ewoawo le la de eme, eye nàtsi xɔmetsovɔ la ale be wòaɣla nubablaɖaka la ɖe Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la.
And you shall put therein the ark of the testimony, and cover the ark with the vail.
4 Emegbe la, kɔ kplɔ̃ la da ɖe eme, nàkɔ kplɔ̃a ŋutinuwo da ɖe kplɔ̃ la dzi, nàtsɔ akaɖiti la de eme, eye nàsi akaɖiawo.
And you shall bring in the table, and set in order the things that are to be set in order upon it; and you shall bring in the candlestick, and light the lamps thereof.
5 “Kɔ sikavɔsamlekpui si dzi woado dzudzɔ ɖo la da ɖe nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ. Tsi xɔmemɔnuvɔawo ɖe agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu,
And you shall set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the hanging of the door to the tabernacle.
6 eye nàkɔ numevɔsamlekpui la da ɖe agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
And you shall set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
7 Kɔ tsileze la da ɖe Mawu ƒe agbadɔ la kple vɔsamlekpui la dome, eye nàku tsi ɖe eme.
And you shall set the vessel that holds water between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and shall put water therein.
8 Le esia megbe la, wɔ xɔxɔnu la ƒo xlã agbadɔ la godoo, eye nàtsi xɔmemɔnuvɔ la ɖe xɔxɔnu la ƒe mɔnu.
And you shall set up the court round about, and hang up the hanging at the court gate.
9 “Tsɔ ami sisi la, eye nàhlẽe ɖe agbadɔ la kple nu sia nu si le eme la ŋuti, ɖe nu siwo ŋu dɔ woawɔ kple agbadɔ la ƒe akpawo kple xɔmenuawo ŋuti be nàkɔ wo ŋuti, eye wo ŋuti nakɔ.
And you shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that is therein, and shall hallow it, and all the vessels thereof: and it shall be holy.
10 Hlẽ ami sisi la ɖe numevɔsamlekpui la kple eŋunuwo ŋuti, eye nàkɔ wo ŋu; ekema vɔsamlekpui la ŋuti akɔ nyuie.
And you shall anoint the altar of the burnt offering, and all his vessels, and sanctify the altar: and it shall be an altar most holy.
11 Si ami na tsileze la kple eƒe zɔ, eye nàwɔe kɔkɔe.
And you shall anoint the vessel that holds water and his foot, and sanctify it.
12 “Azɔ la, kplɔ Aron kple via ŋutsuwo va agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu eye nàle tsi na wo.
And you shall bring Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.
13 Do awu kɔkɔewo na Aron eye nàsi ami nɛ, akɔ eŋu be wòasubɔm abe nunɔla ene.
And you shall put upon Aaron the holy garments, and anoint him, and sanctify him; that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
14 Emegbe la, nàkplɔ via ŋutsuwo vɛ, nàdo woƒe awuwo na wo,
And you shall bring his sons, and clothe them with coats:
15 eye nàsi ami na wo abe ale si nàsii na wo fofo ene, ale be woasubɔm abe nunɔlawo ene. Ami sisi sia atsi wo ŋu tegbetegbe, tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me: wo viwo katã kple wo viwo ƒe viwo azu nunɔlawo nam tegbetegbe.”
And you shall anoint them, as you did anoint their father, that they may minister unto me in the priest's office: for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.
16 Ale Mose de asi nu siwo katã Yehowa ɖo nɛ be wòawɔ la wɔwɔ me.
Thus did Moses: according to all that the LORD commanded him, so did he.
17 Le ƒe evelia ƒe ɣleti gbãtɔ ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ dzi la, wotu agbadɔ la.
And it came to pass in the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, that the tabernacle was reared up.
18 Mose kɔ zɔwo de sɔtiawo te, eye wòklã ʋuƒowo ɖe sɔtiawo ŋu.
And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and fastened his sockets, and set up the boards thereof, and put in the bars thereof, and reared up his pillars.
19 Ekeke avɔ la ɖe atixɔ la ŋu, eye wòda tamenuwo ɖe edzi abe ale si Yehowa ɖo nɛ pɛpɛpɛ la ene.
And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it; as the LORD commanded Moses.
20 Etsɔ kpe siwo dzi woŋlɔ Se Ewoawo ɖo la da ɖe nubablaɖaka la me, etsi aɖakatsɔtiawo ɖe eŋu, eye wòtsɔ sikanutunu, amenuveveteƒe la tu enu.
And he took and put the testimony into the ark, and set the staves on the ark, and put the mercy seat above upon the ark:
21 Emegbe la, ekɔ nubablaɖaka la va agbadɔ la me, eye wòtsɔ xɔmetsovɔ la xe eŋkume abe ale si Yehowa ɖo nɛ pɛpɛpɛ la ene.
And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the vail of the covering, and covered the ark of the testimony; as the LORD commanded Moses.
22 Azɔ la, ekɔ Kplɔ̃ la da ɖe Mawu ƒe agbadɔ la me le anyiehe lɔƒo, le xɔmetsovɔ la godo,
And he put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the vail.
23 eye wòtsɔ ŋkumeɖobolo la da ɖe kplɔ̃ la dzi le Yehowa ŋkume abe ale si Yehowa ɖo nɛ ene.
And he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
24 Mose kɔ akaɖiti la da ɖe kplɔ̃ la kasa le agbadɔ la me le dziehe lɔƒo.
And he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation, opposite to the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.
25 Esi akaɖiawo le Yehowa ŋkume le ɖoɖoawo nu,
And he lighted the lamps before the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.
26 eye wòkɔ sikavɔsamlekpui la da ɖe agbadɔ la me te ɖe xɔmetsovɔ la ŋu.
And he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation before the vail:
27 Etsɔ atike ʋeʋĩwo do dzudzɔ ɖe edzi abe ale si Yehowa ɖo nɛ ene.
And he burnt sweet incense thereon; as the LORD commanded Moses.
28 Etsi xɔmemɔnuvɔ la ɖe agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu,
And he set up the hanging at the door of the tabernacle.
29 ekɔ numevɔsamlekpui la da ɖe gota te ɖe agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu ŋu, eye wòme numevɔsa kple nuɖuvɔsa le vɔsamlekpui la dzi abe ale si Yehowa ɖo nɛ pɛpɛpɛ la ene.
And he put the altar of burnt offering by the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation, and offered upon it the burnt offering and the food offering; as the LORD commanded Moses.
30 Emegbe la, ekɔ tsileze la da ɖe Mawu ƒe agbadɔ la kple vɔsamlekpui la dome. Eku tsi ɖe eme wòyɔ ale be nunɔlawo ate ŋu awɔ eŋu dɔ le asikɔklɔ kple afɔkɔklɔ me.
And he set the vessel that holds water between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and put water there, to wash likewise.
31 Mose kple Aron kple Aron ƒe viŋutsuwo klɔ woƒe asiwo kple afɔwo le afi sia.
And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet thereat:
32 Ɣe sia ɣi si woato vɔsamlekpui la ŋu be yewoage ɖe agbadɔ la me la, wotɔna, klɔa asi kple afɔ, abe ale si Yehowa ɖo na Mose ene.
When they went into the tent of the congregation, and when they came near unto the altar, they washed; as the LORD commanded Moses.
33 Azɔ la, Mose tɔ kpɔ ƒo xlã nɔƒe la kple vɔsamlekpui la, eye wòtsi xɔmemɔnuvɔ ɖe nɔƒe la ƒe mɔnu. Ale Mose wu eƒe dɔ la nu mlɔeba.
And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the hanging of the court gate. So Moses finished the work.
34 Tete lilikpo la tsyɔ Mawu ƒe agbadɔ la dzi eye Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe yɔ eme.
Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
35 Mose mete ŋu ge ɖe eme o, elabena lilikpo la nɔ afi ma, eye Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe yɔ agbadɔ la me fũu.
And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
36 Ne lilikpo la ho, eye wòɖe zɔ la, Israelviwo yia mɔzɔzɔ la dzi, dzea eyome.
And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys:
37 Ke ne lilikpo la tɔ la, woawo hã wotɔna va se ɖe esime lilikpo la gaɖe zɔ.
But if the cloud were not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.
38 Yehowa ƒe lilikpo la tɔna ɖe agbadɔ la dzi le ŋkeke me. Ke le zã me la, dzo klẽna le lilikpo la me, ale be Israelviwo katã nate ŋu akpɔe. Nu sia yi edzi le woƒe mɔzɔzɔwo katã me.
For the cloud of the LORD was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
