1 And the Lord said to Moses,
2 Say to the children of Israel that they are to make me an offering; from every man who has the impulse in his heart take an offering for me.
3 And this is the offering you are to take from them: gold and silver and brass;
4 And blue and purple and red, and the best linen, and goats' hair;
5 And sheepskins coloured red, and leather, and hard wood;
6 Oil for the light, spices for the sweet-smelling oil, sweet perfumes for burning;
7 Beryls and stones of value to be put on the ephod and on the priest's bag.
8 And let them make me a holy place, so that I may be ever present among them.
9 Make the House and everything in it from the designs which I will give you.
10 And they are to make an ark of hard wood; two and a half cubits long, and a cubit and a half wide and high.
11 It is to be plated inside and out with the best gold, with an edge of gold all round it
12 And make four rings of gold for it, to be fixed on its four feet, two rings on one side of it and two on the other.
13 And make rods of the same wood, plating them with gold.
14 And put the rods through the rings at the sides of the ark, for lifting it.
15 The rods are to be kept in the rings, and never taken out.
16 Inside the ark you are to put the record which I will give you.
17 And you are to make a cover of the best gold, two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.
18 And at the two ends of the cover you are to make two winged ones of hammered gold,
19 One at one end and one at the other; the winged ones are to be part of the cover.
20 And their wings are to be outstretched over the cover, and the winged ones are to be opposite one another, facing the cover.
21 And put the cover over the ark, and in the ark the record which I will give you.
22 And there, between the two winged ones on the cover of the ark, I will come to you, face to face, and make clear to you all the orders I have to give you for the children of Israel.
23 And you are to make a table of the same wood, two cubits long, a cubit wide and a cubit and a half high,
24 Plated with the best gold, with a gold edge all round it;
25 And make a frame all round it, as wide as a man's hand, with a gold edge to the frame.
26 And make four gold rings and put them at the four angles, on the four feet of the table;
27 The rings are to be fixed under the frame to take the rods with which the table is to be lifted.
28 Make rods of the same wood, plated with gold, for lifting the table.
29 And make the table-vessels, the spoons and the cups and the basins for liquids, all of the best gold.
30 And on the table at all times you are to keep my holy bread.
31 And you are to make a support for lights, of the best gold; its base and its pillar are to be of hammered gold; its cups, its buds, and its flowers are to be made of the same metal.
32 It is to have six branches coming out from its sides; three branches from one side and three from the other.
33 Every branch having three cups made like almond flowers, every cup with a bud and a flower, on all the branches.
34 And on the pillar, four cups like almond flowers, every one with its bud and its flower:
35 And under every two branches a bud, made with the branch, for all the six branches of it.
36 The buds and the branches are to be made of the same metal; all together one complete work of hammered gold.
37 Then you are to make its seven vessels for the lights, putting them in their place so that they give light in front of it.
38 And the instruments and trays for use with it are all to be of the best gold.
39 A talent of gold will be needed for it, with all these vessels.
40 And see that you make them from the design which you saw on the mountain.
1 Na ka korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi, ka mea,
2 Korero atu ki nga tama a Iharaira, kia maua mai e ratou he whakahere maku: me tango e koutou te whakahere maku i nga tangata katoa e hihiko noa mai ana o ratou ngakau.
3 Ko te whakahere ano tenei e tangohia e koutou i a ratou; he koura, he hiriwa, he parahi,
4 Me te kakahu puru, me te papaura, me te ngangana, me te rinena pai, me te huruhuru koati,
5 Me nga hiako hipi kua oti te whakawhero, me nga hiako pateri, me etahi rakau, he hitimi;
6 Te hinu mo te whakamarama, nga mea kakara mo te hinu whakawahi, mo te whakakakara reka hoki,
7 Nga kohatu onika, me nga kohatu hei whakanoho ki te epora, ki te kouma.
8 A kia hanga e ratou he wahi tapu moku; kia noho ai ahau i waenganui i a ratou.
9 Kia rite a koutou e hanga ai ki nga mea katoa e whakakitea nei e ahau ki a koe, ki te tauira o te tapenakara, ki te tauira hoki o ona mea katoa.
10 Me hanga ano hoki e ratou he aaka, ki te hitimi te rakau: kia rua nga whatianga me te hawhe te roa, kia kotahi whatianga me te hawhe te whanui, a kia kotahi whatianga me te hawhe te teitei.
11 A me whakakikorua e koe ki te koura parakore; me whakakikorua e koe taua mea, a roto, a waho, me hanga ano hoki e koe he niao koura a tawhio noa.
12 Kia wha ano nga mowhiti koura e whakarewaia mo taua aaka, ka whakanoho ai ki nga poti e wha; kia rua mowhiti ki tetahi taha ona, kia rua mowhiti ki tetahi taha ona.
13 Me hanga ano e koe etahi rakau amo, ki te hitimi te rakau, ka whakakikorua hoki ki te koura;
14 Ka kuhu ai i nga rakau amo ki roto ki nga mowhiti i nga taha o te aaka, kia ai aua mea hei maunga mo te aaka.
15 Hei nga mowhiti o te aaka nga amo mau ai; kaua e unuhia ki waho.
16 A me hoatu e koe ki roto ki te aaka te whakaaturanga e hoatu e ahau ki a koe.
17 Me hanga ano e koe te taupoki ki te koura parakore: kia rua nga whatianga me te hawhe tona roa, kia kotahi hoki whatianga me te hawhe tona whanui.
18 Me hanga ano etahi kerupima, kia rua, he mea patu te koura e hanga ai aua mea a puta noa, mo nga pito e rua o te taupoki.
19 Me hanga hoki tetahi kerupi ki tetahi pito, me tetahi kerupi ki tetahi pito: me hono nga kerupima ki te taupoki, ki ona pito e rua.
20 A ka roha whakarunga nga parirau o nga kerupima, me te uhi ano i te taupoki ki o raua parirau, ka anga ano o raua mata ki a raua; ka anga ki te taupoki nga mata o nga kerupima.
21 A me whakanoho e koe te taupoki ki runga ki te aaka; me hoatu ano ki roto ki te aaka te whakaaturanga e hoatu e ahau ki a koe.
22 A ka tutaki ahau ki a koe ki reira, ka korerotia ano ki a koe i runga i te taupoki i waenganui i nga kerupima e rua, i era i runga i te aaka o te whakaaturanga, nga mea katoa e whakahau ai ahau ki a koe mo nga tama a Iharaira.
23 Me hanga ano e koe tetahi tepu, ki te hitimi te rakau: kia rua nga whatianga te roa, kia kotahi whatianga te whanui, kia kotahi whatianga me te hawhe te teitei.
24 Me whakakikorua taua mea ki te koura parakore, ka hanga ai i tetahi niao koura mona a tawhio noa.
25 Me hanga ano he awhi mo taua mea, hei te whanui ringa a tawhio noa; me hanga ano he niao koura mo tona awhi a tawhio noa.
26 Me hanga ano etahi mowhiti koura, kia wha, mo taua mea, ka whakanoho ai i nga mowhiti ki nga poti e wha i ona waewae e wha.
27 Hei te taha tonu ake o te awhi nga mowhiti, hei kuhunga atu mo nga amo hei maunga mo te tepu.
28 He hitimi te rakau e hanga ai e koe nga amo; me whakakikorua ano ki te koura; a ka ai aua mea hei maunga mo te tepu.
29 Me hanga ano ona rihi, ona koko, ona kapu, me nga peihana mo nga ringihanga: me hanga ki te koura parakore.
30 Me whakatakoto tonu te taro aroaro ki te tepu, ki toku aroaro.
31 Me hanga ano te turanga rama ki te koura parakore: me patu te mahina o te turanga rama tae noa ki tona take, ki ona peka; ko ona kapu, ko ona puku, me ona puawai he kotahi me ia.
32 A kia ono nga peka e puta ake i ona taha; e toru nga peka o te turanga rama i tetahi taha, e toru hoki nga peka o te turanga rama i tetahi taha:
33 Kia toru nga kapu, he mea rite ki te puawai aramona, te puku, me te puawai, ki te peka kotahi; me nga kapu e toru, he mea rite ki te puawai aramona ki tetahi atu peka, te puku, me te puawai: me pera tonu i nga peka e ono e puta ake ana i te tura nga rama.
34 Kia wha ia nga kapu o te turanga rama, kia rite ki te puawai aramona, te puku, me te puawai, o tetahi, o tetahi.
35 A e rua ona peka, kia kotahi puku o raro ake, he mea kotahi; e rua ona peka, kia kotahi puku o raro ake, he mea kotahi; e rua ona peka, kia kotahi puku o raro ake, he mea kotahi ano, o nga peka e ono e puta mai ana i te turanga rama.
36 No te mea kotahi nga puku, nga peka: ko taua mea katoa, he mea patu, kotahi tonu, he korua parakore.
37 Me hanga ona rama e whitu: a me tahu ona rama, hei whakamarama i tona hangaitanga atu.
38 Me koura parakore ano ona kuku me ona oko ngarahu.
39 Kia kotahi taranata koura parakore e hanga ai taua mea, me ena oko katoa.
40 Kia tupato ano kia hanga aua mea kia rite ki te tauira i whakakitea ki a koe i te maunga.
