Abantu ne bongera okuleeta ku byabwe ebya kyeyagalire buli nkya. 4Awo abakozi bali abakugu abaali bakola eweema ya Mukama ne bava ku mirimu gyabwe, 536:5 2By 24:14; 31:10; 2Ko 8:2-3ne bajja eri Musa ne bamugamba nti, “Ebirabo abantu bye baleese bisukkiridde obungi ku ebyo ebyetaagibwa okumala omulimu Mukama gwe yalagira okukolebwa.”
6Awo Musa n’awa ekiragiro ne kibunyisibwa mu lusiisira lwonna nti, “Tewabaawo musajja oba mukazi ayongera okuleeta ekiweebwayo olw’omulimu gw’Eweema ya Mukama.” Bwe batyo abantu ne bagaanibwa okwongera okuwaayo; 736:7 1Bk 7:47kubanga ebyo abakozi bye baalina byali bimala omulimu ogwo era n’okufikkawo.
Eweema ya Mukama Ekolebwa
8Awo bannakinku bonna mu basajja abakozi ne bakola eweema ya Mukama n’emitanda kkumi egya linena omunyoole omulungi ennyo, nga mulimu n’ebya bbululu, ne kakobe, ne myufu, ne bakerubi nga batungiddwamu n’amagezi mangi. 9Emitanda gyonna gyali gyenkanankana; ng’omutanda ogumu guweza obuwanvu mita kkumi na bbiri n’ekitundu, ate obugazi mita emu ne desimoolo munaana. 10Baagatta emitanda etaano nga bagisengese, gumu ku gunnaagwo, n’emitanda emirala etaano nagyo ne bagigatta bwe batyo. 11Ne batunga eŋŋango eza bbululu ku mukugiro gw’omutanda gw’entimbe ogukomererayo mu kitundu ekimu eky’entimbe etaano, era ne batunga n’eŋŋango endala mu ngeri y’emu ku ludda olulala. 12Baatunga eŋŋango amakumi ataano ku mutanda ogumu, era ne batunga eŋŋango endala amakumi ataano ku mukugiro gw’omutanda ku ludda olulala, eŋŋango nga zoolekaganye. 1336:13 nny 18Ne bakola ebikwaso ebya zaabu amakumi ataano, ne bakwasa wamu enjuuyi zombi ez’emitanda n’ebikwaso; eweema ya Mukama n’ebeera wamu nga nnamba.
14Ne bakola entimbe kkumi na lumu nga zirukiddwa mu bwoya bw’embuzi ne bazibikka ku Weema. 15Entimbe zonna ekkumi n’olumu zaali zenkanankana: ng’obuwanvu mita kkumi na ssatu n’ekitundu, obugazi zaali mita emu n’obutundu munaana. 16Ne bagatta entimbe ttaano wamu ku bwazo, n’entimbe omukaaga nazo ne bazigatta ku bwazo. 17Ne batunga eŋŋango amakumi ataano ku mukugiro gw’entimbe ekomererayo ku bwazo, n’eŋŋango amakumi ataano endala ku mukugiro gw’entimbe omulala ku bwazo. 1836:18 nny 13Ne bakola ebikwaso eby’ekikomo amakumi ataano, ne babiyisa mu ŋŋango okunyweza enjuuyi zombi ez’entimbe ezo ng’ekintu ekimu. 19Ne bakola ekibikka ku Weema mu maliba g’endiga ennume nga gannyikiddwa mu langi emyufu; okwo ne babikkako amaliba g’ente ey’omu nnyanja.
20Awo ne babajja embaawo mu muti gwa akasiya ne baziyimiriza ne zikola entobo ya Weema. 21Buli lubaawo lwali mita nnya n’ekitundu obuwanvu, ate ng’obugazi zaali sentimita nkaaga mu musanvu. 22Buli lubaawo baaluteekako obubaawo obuyiseemu bubiri, obw’okukozesa mu kugatta, nga bulekawo amabanga agenkanankana. Embaawo zonna ez’entobo ya Weema ya Mukama bwe baazikola bwe batyo. 23Baakola embaawo amakumi abiri ne bazissa ku ludda olw’obukiikaddyo obw’Eweema, 24era ne bakola obubya obutono obwa ffeeza amakumi ana, ne babussa wansi w’obubaawo obuyiseemu obubiri ku buli lubaawo. 25Ate ku ludda olw’obukiikakkono olw’Eweema ya Mukama ne bakolerayo embaawo amakumi abiri, 26n’entobo eza ffeeza amakumi ana, bbiri nga ziri wansi wa buli lubaawo. 27Ne bakola embaawo mukaaga, ne baziteeka ku ludda olw’emabega wa Weema, lwe lw’ebugwanjuba; 28era ne bakola embaawo endala bbiri ne bazissa ku nsonda ez’oku ludda olwo olw’ebugwanjuba. 29Ku nsonda zino ebbiri, embaawo zombi baazisiba wamu nabansasaana okuviira ddala wansi okutuuka waggulu, ne bazinyweza n’empeta. 30Noolwekyo waaliwo embaawo munaana, n’entobo eza ffeeza kkumi na mukaaga, nga buli lubaawo wansi waalwo eriyo bbiri bbiri.
31Ne bakola emikiikiro mu muti gwa akasiya. Emikiikiro etaano ne bagikozesa ku mbaawo eziri ku lusebenju lwa Weema olumu, 32n’emikiikiro etaano ku mbaawo eziri ku lusebenju lwa Weema olulala, n’emikiikiro etaano ne bagikozesa ku mbaawo eziri ku ludda olw’emabega wa Weema olw’ebugwanjuba. 33Ne bassaayo omulabba nga guyita wakati w’embaawo nga guva ku ludda olumu okutuuka ku ludda olulala. 34Embaawo ne bazibikkako zaabu, era ne bakola empeta eza zaabu ne bazisibisa emikiikiro; n’emikiikiro nagyo ne bagibikkako zaabu.
Eggigi Likolebwa
3536:35 Kuv 39:38; Mat 27:51; Luk 23:45; Beb 9:3Baakola eggigi mu wuzi eza bbululu, ne kakobe, ne myufu ne linena omulebevu omulungi alangiddwa; era omukozi omukugu n’atungiramu bakerubi. 36Ne baliwanika n’amalobo aga zaabu ku mpagi nnya ezaabajjibwa mu muti gwa akasiya, nga zibikkiddwako zaabu, era nga zisimbiddwa mu ntobo eza ffeeza. 3736:37 Kuv 27:16Ne bakola olutimbe olw’omu mulyango gwa Weema mu wuzi eza bbululu, ne kakobe, ne myufu ne linena omulebevu alangiddwa obulungi. 38Ne balukolera empagi ttaano nga bazibazze mu muti gwa akasiya, ne baziteekako n’amalobo gaazo. Ne babikka zaabu kungulu ku mpagi ne ku bisiba byazo. Entobo zaazo ettaano ne bazikola mu kikomo.
1So Bezalel, Oholiab and every skilled person to whom the Lord has given skill and ability to know how to carry out all the work of constructing the sanctuary are to do the work just as the Lord has commanded.’
2Then Moses summoned Bezalel and Oholiab and every skilled person to whom the Lord had given ability and who was willing to come and do the work. 3They received from Moses all the offerings the Israelites had brought to carry out the work of constructing the sanctuary. And the people continued to bring freewill offerings morning after morning. 4So all the skilled workers who were doing all the work on the sanctuary left what they were doing 5and said to Moses, ‘The people are bringing more than enough for doing the work the Lord commanded to be done.’
6Then Moses gave an order and they sent this word throughout the camp: ‘No man or woman is to make anything else as an offering for the sanctuary.’ And so the people were restrained from bringing more, 7because what they already had was more than enough to do all the work.
The tabernacle
8All those who were skilled among the workers made the tabernacle with ten curtains of finely twisted linen and blue, purple and scarlet yarn, with cherubim woven into them by expert hands. 9All the curtains were the same size – twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide.36:9 That is, about 13 metres long and 1.8 metres wide 10They joined five of the curtains together and did the same with the other five. 11Then they made loops of blue material along the edge of the end curtain in one set, and the same was done with the end curtain in the other set. 12They also made fifty loops on one curtain and fifty loops on the end curtain of the other set, with the loops opposite each other. 13Then they made fifty gold clasps and used them to fasten the two sets of curtains together so that the tabernacle was a unit.
14They made curtains of goat hair for the tent over the tabernacle – eleven altogether. 15All eleven curtains were the same size – thirty cubits long and four cubits wide.36:15 That is, about 14 metres long and 1.8 metres wide 16They joined five of the curtains into one set and the other six into another set. 17Then they made fifty loops along the edge of the end curtain in one set and also along the edge of the end curtain in the other set. 18They made fifty bronze clasps to fasten the tent together as a unit. 19Then they made for the tent a covering of ram skins dyed red, and over that a covering of other durable leather.36:19 Possibly the hides of large aquatic mammals (see 35:7)
20They made upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle. 21Each frame was ten cubits long and a cubit and a half wide,36:21 That is, about 4.5 metres long and 68 centimetres wide 22with two projections set parallel to each other. They made all the frames of the tabernacle in this way. 23They made twenty frames for the south side of the tabernacle 24and made forty silver bases to go under them – two bases for each frame, one under each projection. 25For the other side, the north side of the tabernacle, they made twenty frames 26and forty silver bases – two under each frame. 27They made six frames for the far end, that is, the west end of the tabernacle, 28and two frames were made for the corners of the tabernacle at the far end. 29At these two corners the frames were double from the bottom all the way to the top and fitted into a single ring; both were made alike. 30So there were eight frames and sixteen silver bases – two under each frame.
31They also made crossbars of acacia wood: five for the frames on one side of the tabernacle, 32five for those on the other side, and five for the frames on the west, at the far end of the tabernacle. 33They made the centre crossbar so that it extended from end to end at the middle of the frames. 34They overlaid the frames with gold and made gold rings to hold the crossbars. They also overlaid the crossbars with gold.
35They made the curtain of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen, with cherubim woven into it by a skilled worker. 36They made four posts of acacia wood for it and overlaid them with gold. They made gold hooks for them and cast their four silver bases. 37For the entrance to the tent they made a curtain of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen – the work of an embroiderer; 38and they made five posts with hooks for them. They overlaid the tops of the posts and their bands with gold and made their five bases of bronze.
