1Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
1And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
2“Vakai, kuo u ui ʻa Pesalili ko e foha ʻo Uli, ko e foha ʻo Hua, ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo Siuta:
2'See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah;
3Pea 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,
3and I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
4Ke fifili ki he ngaahi ngāue fakapotopoto, ke ngāue ʻi he koula, mo e siliva, mo e palasa.
4to devise skilful works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
5Pea 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.
5and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all manner of workmanship.
6Pea 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:
6And I, behold, I have appointed with him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the hearts of all that are wise-hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee:
7Ko 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,
7the tent of meeting, and the ark of the testimony, and the ark-cover that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the Tent;
8Mo e palepale mo hono nāunau, mo e tuʻunga maama māʻoniʻoni mo hono nāunau kotoa pē, mo e feilaulauʻanga ʻoe meʻa namu kakala,
8and the table and its vessels, and the pure candlestick with all its vessels, and the altar of incense;
9Mo e feilaulauʻanga ʻoe feilaulau tutu mo hono nāunau kotoa pē, mo e sene mo hono tuʻunga,
9and the altar of burnt-offering with all its vessels, and the laver and its base;
10Mo 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,
10and the plaited garments, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office;
11Mo 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.”
11and the anointing oil, and the incense of sweet spices for the holy place; according to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.'
12¶ Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
12And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
13ke 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.
13'Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying: Verily ye shall keep My sabbaths, for it is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, that ye may know that I am the LORD who sanctify you.
14Ko 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,
14Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore, for it is holy unto you; every one that profaneth it shall surely be put to death; for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
15ʻOku 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.
15Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day is a sabbath of solemn rest, holy to the LORD; whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.
16Ko 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.
16Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.
17Ko 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.”
17It is a sign between Me and the children of Israel for ever; for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day He ceased from work and rested.'
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.
18And He gave unto Moses, when He had made an end of speaking with him upon mount Sinai, the two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
