ʻEkisotosi 31

1 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,

Then Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,

2 “Vakai, kuo u ui ʻa Pesalili ko e foha ʻo Uli, ko e foha ʻo Hua, ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo Siuta:

“See, I have called by name Bezalel son of Uri son of Hur, from the tribe of Judah.

3 Pea kuo u fakafonu ia ʻi he laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻi he poto, pea ʻi he loto-matala, mo e faʻa ʻilo, pea ʻi he ngaahi ngāue fakatufunga kotoa pē,

I have filled Bezalel with my Spirit, to give him wisdom, understanding, and knowledge, for all kinds of craftsmanship,

4 Ke fifili ki he ngaahi ngāue fakapotopoto, ke ngāue ʻi he koula, mo e siliva, mo e palasa.

to make artistic designs and to work in gold, silver, and bronze;

5 Pea ʻi he tātā ʻoe ngaahi maka koloa, ke fakamaʻu ia, pea ʻi he tātā ʻae ʻakau, mo e ngāue ʻi he ngaahi ngāue fakatufunga kotoa pē.

also to cut and set stones and to carve wood—to do all kinds of craftsmanship.

6 Pea ko au, vakai, kuo u foaki mo ia ʻa ʻAholiapi ko e foha ʻo ʻEhisamaki, ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo Tani: pea kuo u ʻai ʻae poto ki he loto ʻokinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku loto poto, koeʻuhi ke nau faʻa ngaohi ʻaia kotoa pē kuo u fekau kiate koe:

In addition to him, I have appointed Oholiab son of Ahisamak, from the tribe of Dan. I have put skill into the hearts of all who are wise so that they may make all that I have commanded you. This includes

7 Ko e fale fakatahaʻanga ʻoe kakai, mo e puha ʻoe fuakava, mo e nofoʻanga ʻaloʻofa ʻoku hilifaki ki hono funga, mo hono ngaahi nāunau kotoa pē ʻoe fale fehikitaki,

the tent of meeting, the ark of the testimony, the atonement lid on the ark, and all the furniture of the tent—

8 Mo e palepale mo hono nāunau, mo e tuʻunga maama māʻoniʻoni mo hono nāunau kotoa pē, mo e feilaulauʻanga ʻoe meʻa namu kakala,

the table and its utensils, the pure lampstand with all its equipment, the incense altar,

9 Mo e feilaulauʻanga ʻoe feilaulau tutu mo hono nāunau kotoa pē, mo e sene mo hono tuʻunga,

the altar for burnt offerings with all its equipment, and the large basin with its base.

10 Mo e ngaahi kofu ʻoe ngāue, mo e ngaahi kofu tapu kia ʻElone ko e taulaʻeiki, mo e ngaahi kofu ki hono ngaahi foha, ke nau ngāue ai ʻi he ngāue fakataulaʻeiki,

This also includes the finely-woven garments—the holy garments for Aaron the priest and those of his sons, reserved for me so that they may serve as priests.

11 Mo e lolo tākai, mo e meʻa namu kakala ki he potu māʻoniʻoni: te nau fai ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa kotoa pē kuo u fekau kiate koe.”

This also includes the anointing oil and the sweet incense for the holy place. These craftsmen must make all these things just as I have commanded you.”

12 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,

Then Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,

13 ke ke lea foki ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “Ko e moʻoni te mou tauhi hoku ngaahi Sāpate: he ko e fakaʻilonga ia ʻiate au mo kimoutolu ʻi homou ngaahi toʻutangata kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou fakatapui ʻakimoutolu.

“Tell the Israelites: 'You must certainly keep Yahweh's Sabbath days, for these will be a sign between him and you throughout your people's generations so that you may know that he is Yahweh, who sets you apart for himself.

14 Ko ia te mou tauhi ai ʻae Sāpate he ʻoku tapu ia kiate kimoutolu: ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻuliʻi ia ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia: he ko ia kotoa pē ʻe fai ʻi ai ha ngāue, ʻe motuhi ʻae tangata ko ia mei hono kakai,

So you must keep the Sabbath, for it must be treated by you as holy, reserved for him. Everyone who defiles it must surely be put to death. Whoever works on the Sabbath, that person must surely be cut off from his people.

15 ‌ʻOku ngofua ke fai ʻae ngāue ʻi he ʻaho ʻe ono; ka ʻi hono fitu, ko e Sāpate ʻoe mālōlō, ko e māʻoniʻoni kia Sihova: ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku fai ha ngāue ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate, ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia.

Work will be done for six days, but the seventh day is to be a Sabbath of complete rest, holy before Yahweh. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day must surely be put to death.

16 Ko ia, ʻe tauhi ʻae Sāpate ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ke tokanga ki he Sāpate ʻi homou ngaahi toʻutangata kotoa pē, ko e fuakava maʻuaipē ia.

Therefore the Israelites must keep the Sabbath. They must observe it throughout their people's generations as a permanent law.

17 Ko e fakaʻilonga ia ʻiate au mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo taʻengata: he naʻe ngaohi ʻe Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ʻe ono ʻae langi mo e fonua, pea naʻa ne tutuku ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho, pea fiemālie ai.”

The Sabbath will always be a sign between Yahweh and the Israelites, for in six days Yahweh made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed.'”

18 Pea hili ʻene folofola kia Mōsese ʻi he moʻunga ko Sainai, naʻa ne ʻatu kiate ia ʻae maka ʻe ua ʻoe fuakava, ko e ongo maka, kuo tohi ʻaki ʻae louhiʻi nima ʻoe ʻOtua.

When God had finished talking with Moses on Mount Sinai, he gave him two tablets of covenant decrees, made of stone, written on by his own hand.
