1 Bezaleli akafanya Sanduku la mbao za mshita. Mikono miwili na nusu urefu wake, na mkono mmoja na nusu upana wake, na mkono mmoja na nusu kimo chake.

Bezalel made the ark of acacia wood. Its length was four feet four inches, and its breadth two feet seven inches, and two feet seven inches its height.

2 Kisha akalifunika kwa dhahabu safi ndani na nje na kulifanyia ukingo wa dhahabu kulizunguka pande zote.

He overlaid it with pure gold inside and outside, and made a molding of gold for it around it.

3 Kisha akalitengenezea pete nne za dhahabu, za juu ya miguu yake minne, pete mbili upande wake mmoja na pete mbili upande wake mwingine

He cast four rings of gold for it, in its four feet; even two rings on its one side, and two rings on its other side.

4 Kisha akafanya miti ya mshita na kuifunika kwa dhahabu.

He made poles of acacia wood, and overlaid them with gold.

5 Halafu akaitia miti hiyo kwenye zile pete zilizo pande za Sanduku ili kulibeba Sanduku.

He put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.

6 Naye akafanya kifuniko cha dhahabu safi. Mikono miwili na nusu urefu wake, na mkono mmoja na nusu upana wake.

He made a mercy seat of pure gold. Its length was four feet four inches, and two feet seven inches, its breadth.

7 Bezaleli akafanya makerubi wawili wa dhahabu. Kwa kazi ya kufua akawafanya kwenye miisho yote miwili ya kifuniko.

He made two cherubim of gold. He made them of beaten work, at the two ends of the mercy seat;

8 Kerubi mmoja kwenye mwisho ule, na yule kerubi mwingine kwenye mwisho huu. Aliwafanya makerubi juu ya kifuniko kwenye miisho yote miwili.

one cherub at the one end, and one cherub at the other end. He made the cherubim of one piece with the mercy seat at its two ends.

9 Nao wakawa makerubi wanaonyoosha mabawa yao mawili kuelekea juu, wakisitiri kifuniko kwa mabawa yao, nazo nyuso zao zilikuwa zikielekeana. Nyuso za makerubi hao zilielekea kifuniko hicho.

The cherubim spread out their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, with their faces toward one another. The faces of the cherubim were toward the mercy seat.

10 Bezaleli akafanya meza ya mbao za mshita. Mikono miwili urefu wake, na mkono mmoja upana wake, na mkono mmoja na nusu kimo chake.

He made the table of acacia wood. Its length was three feet five inches, and its breadth was twenty-one inches, and its height was two feet seven inches.

11 Halafu akaifunika kwa dhahabu safi na kufanya ukingo wa dhahabu kuizunguka pande zote.

He overlaid it with pure gold, and made a gold molding around it.

12 Kisha akafanya mzingo wa upana wa kiganja kuizunguka na kufanya ukingo wa dhahabu kwa ajili ya mzingo wake kuizunguka pande zote.

He made a border of a handbreadth around it, and made a golden molding on its border around it.

13 Tena, akatengeneza pete nne za dhahabu kwa ajili yake na kuziweka pete hizo kwenye zile pembe nne zilizokuwa kwa ajili ya ile miguu minne.

He cast four rings of gold for it, and put the rings in the four corners that were on its four feet.

14 Pete hizo zilikuwa karibu na ule mzingo, ili kutegemeza ile miti ya kuibeba meza hiyo.

The rings were close by the border, the places for the poles to carry the table.

15 Halafu akafanya ile miti ya mshita na kuifunika kwa dhahabu ili kuibeba ile meza.

He made the poles of acacia wood, and overlaid them with gold, to carry the table.

16 Baada ya hilo akafanya kutokana na dhahabu safi vile vyombo vilivyo juu ya meza, sahani zake na vikombe vyake na mabakuli yake na mitungi yake iliyotumiwa kumimina matoleo ya kinywaji.

He made the vessels which were on the table, its dishes, its spoons, its bowls, and its pitchers with which to pour out, of pure gold.

17 Kisha akafanya kinara cha taa cha dhahabu safi. Kwa kazi ya kufua akakifanya kinara cha taa. Pande zake na matawi yake, vikombe vyake, mafundo yake na maua yake vikatokea kwake.

He made the lampstand of pure gold. He made the lampstand of beaten work. Its base, its shaft, its cups, its buds, and its flowers were of one piece with it.

18 Na matawi sita yalikuwa yakitoka kwenye pande zake, matawi matatu ya kinara cha taa kutoka kwenye upande wake mmoja na matawi mengine matatu ya kinara cha taa kutoka kwenye ule upande wake mwingine.

There were six branches going out of its sides: three branches of the lampstand out of its one side, and three branches of the lampstand out of its other side:

19 Vikombe vitatu vyenye umbo la maua ya mlozi vilikuwa kwenye kikundi kimoja cha matawi, vifundo na maua yakifuatana; na vikombe vitatu vyenye umbo la maua ya mlozi vilikuwa kwenye kile kikundi kingine cha matawi, vifundo na maua yakifuatana. Hivyo ndivyo ilivyokuwa kwa yale matawi sita yaliyokuwa yakitoka katika kile kinara cha taa.

three cups made like almond blossoms in one branch, a bud and a flower, and three cups made like almond blossoms in the other branch, a bud and a flower: so for the six branches going out of the lampstand.

20 Na kwenye kile kinara cha taa kulikuwa na vikombe vinne vyenye umbo la maua ya mlozi, vifundo vyake na maua yake yakifuatana.

In the lampstand were four cups made like almond blossoms, its buds and its flowers;

21 Na kile kifundo chini ya matawi mawili kilitoka kwake, na kifundo kilicho chini ya yale matawi mengine mawili kilitoka kwake, na kifundo kingine kilicho chini ya matawi mengine mawili zaidi kilitoka kwake, kwa ajili ya matawi sita yanayotoka katika kinara.

and a bud under two branches of one piece with it, and a bud under two branches of one piece with it, and a bud under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of it.

22 Vifundo vyake na matawi yake vilitoka kwake, vyote vilikuwa kitu kimoja cha kazi ya kufua, cha dhahabu safi.

Their buds and their branches were of one piece with it. The whole thing was one beaten work of pure gold.

23 Kisha akafanya taa zake saba na mikasi ya tambi zake na vyetezo vyake kutokana na dhahabu safi.

He made its seven lamps, and its snuffers, and its snuff dishes, of pure gold.

24 Alikifanya kwa talanta ya dhahabu safi, hicho pamoja na vyombo vyake vyote.

He made it of a talent of pure gold, with all its vessels.

25 Sasa akafanya madhabahu ya uvumba kutokana na mbao za mshita. Mkono mmoja urefu wake na mkono mmoja upana wake, ikiwa mraba, na mikono miwili kimo chake. Pembe zake zilitoka kwake.

He made the altar of incense of acacia wood. It was square: its length was twenty-one inches, and its breadth twenty-one inches. Its height was three feet five inches. Its horns were of one piece with it.

26 Kisha akaifunika kwa dhahabu safi, upande wake wa juu na pande zake za kando kuizunguka na pembe zake, naye akafanya ukingo wa dhahabu kuizunguka pande zote.

He overlaid it with pure gold, its top, its sides around it, and its horns. He made a gold molding around it.

27 Naye akaifanyia pete mbili za dhahabu chini ya ukingo wake kwenye pande zake mbili, kwenye pande zake mbili zinazoelekeana, za kutegemeza ile miti ya kuibeba.

He made two golden rings for it under its molding crown, on its two ribs, on its two sides, for places for poles with which to carry it.

28 Kisha akafanya ile miti ya mshita na kuifunika kwa dhahabu.

He made the poles of acacia wood, and overlaid them with gold.

29 Tena akafanya yale mafuta yanayotumiwa kutia mafuta na ule uvumba safi uliotiwa manukato, kazi ya mtengenezaji wa marhamu.

He made the holy anointing oil and the pure incense of sweet spices, after the art of the perfumer.
