Êxodo 27

1 "You shall make the altar of acacia wood, five cubits*27:1 A cubit is the length from the tip of the middle finger to the elbow on a man’s arm, or about 18 inches or 46 centimeters. long, and five cubits wide. The altar shall be square. Its height shall be three cubits.*27:1 The altar was to be about 2.3×2.3×1.4 meters or about 7½×7½×4½ feet. 2 You shall make its horns on its four corners. Its horns shall be of one piece with it. You shall overlay it with bronze. 3 You shall make its pots to take away its ashes; and its shovels, its basins, its meat hooks, and its fire pans. You shall make all its vessels of bronze. 4 You shall make a grating for it of network of bronze. On the net you shall make four bronze rings in its four corners. 5 You shall put it under the ledge around the altar beneath, that the net may reach halfway up the altar. 6 You shall make poles for the altar, poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with bronze. 7 Its poles shall be put into the rings, and the poles shall be on the two sides of the altar when carrying it. 8 You shall make it hollow with planks. They shall make it as it has been shown you on the mountain.

9 "You shall make the court of the tabernacle: for the south side southward there shall be hangings for the court of fine twined linen one hundred cubits long for one side. 10 Its pillars shall be twenty, and their sockets twenty, of bronze. The hooks of the pillars and their fillets shall be of silver. 11 Likewise for the length of the north side, there shall be hangings one hundred cubits long, and its pillars twenty, and their sockets twenty, of bronze; the hooks of the pillars, and their fillets, of silver. 12 For the width of the court on the west side shall be hangings of fifty cubits; their pillars ten, and their sockets ten. 13 The width of the court on the east side eastward shall be fifty cubits. 14 The hangings for the one side of the gate shall be fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three. 15 For the other side shall be hangings of fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three. 16 For the gate of the court shall be a screen of twenty cubits, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the embroiderer; their pillars four, and their sockets four. 17 All the pillars of the court around shall be filleted with silver; their hooks of silver, and their sockets of bronze. 18 The length of the court shall be one hundred cubits, and the width fifty throughout, and the height five cubits, of fine twined linen, and their sockets of bronze. 19 All the instruments of the tabernacle in all its service, and all its pins, and all the pins of the court, shall be of bronze.

20 "You shall command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually. 21 In the Tent of Meeting, outside the veil which is before the covenant, Aaron and his sons shall keep it in order from evening to morning before Yahweh: it shall be a statute forever throughout their generations on the behalf of the children of Israel.

Te Āta

1 "Me hanga anō e koe tētahi āta, ki te hitimi te rākau, kia rima ngā whatīanga te roa, kia rima whatīanga te whānui; kia tapawhā te āta; kia toru hoki ngā whatīanga te teitei. 2 Me hanga ōna haona ki ngā koki e whā; kia kotahi te rākau o taua mea, o ōna haona; me whakakikorua anō ki te parāhi. 3 Me hanga anō ōna takotoranga mō ōna pungarehu, me ōna koko pungarehu, me ōna peihana, me ōna mārau, me ōna oko ngārahu; me hanga ōna mea katoa ki te parāhi. 4 Me hanga anō tōna pae kupenga ki te parāhi, he mea rīpekapeka; ā, me hanga ki runga i taua mea rīpekapeka ngā mōwhiti parāhi e whā ki ōna pito e whā. 5 Ā, me whakanoho taua mea ki raro i te awhi o te āta, ki raro iho, kia takapū ai taua mea rīpekapeka ki waenganui o te āta. 6 Me hanga ētahi amo mō te āta, he amo hitimi, ka whakakikorua hoki ki te parāhi. 7 Ā, ka kuhua ngā amo ki ngā mōwhiti, hei ngā taha e rua o te āta ngā amo, hei amo. 8 Kia tuwhera kau a roto, me hanga e koe ki te papa; kia rite tāu e hanga ai ki tērā i whakakitea ki a koe ki te maunga."

Te Marae o te Tapenākara

9 "Me hanga anō te marae o te tapenākara. Hei te rīnena miro pai he pā mō te taha ki te tonga whaka te tonga; kia kotahi rau whatīanga te roa mō tētahi taha; 10 ko ngā pou kia rua tekau, ko ngā tūranga o aua mea kia rua tekau, me parāhi; me hiriwa ia ngā matau o ngā pou, me ngā awhi. 11 Me ngā pā mō te taha ki te raki kia kotahi rau whatīanga te roa, me ngā pou e rua tekau, me ngā tūranga e rua tekau, he parāhi; me ngā matau hiriwa o ngā pou, me ngā awhi hiriwa.

12 "Me ngā pā mō te whānui o te marae ki te taha ki te hauāuru kia rima tekau whatīanga; kia kotahi tekau ngā pou, me ngā tūranga kotahi tekau. 13 Kia rima tekau hoki whatīanga te whānui o te marae ki te taha ki te rāwhiti whaka te rāwhiti. 14 Kia tekau mā rima whatīanga ngā pā o tētahi taha o te kūwaha, kia toru ngā pou, kia toru hoki ngā tūranga. 15 Kia tekau mā rima hoki whatīanga o ngā pā o tērā taha; kia toru ngā pou, kia toru hoki ngā tūranga.

16 "Kia rua tekau hoki whatīanga o te pā mō te kūwaha o te marae, he purū, he pāpura, he ngangana, he rīnena miro pai, he mea whakairo ki te ngira; kia whā hoki ngā pou, kia whā hoki ngā tūranga. 17 Me whakawhaiawhi ngā pou katoa o te marae ā taka noa ki te hiriwa; me hiriwa ngā matau, me parāhi ngā tūranga. 18 Kia kotahi rau whatīanga te roa o te marae, kia rima tekau hoki te whānui i ngā wāhi katoa, kia rima hoki whatīanga te teitei, ki te rīnena miro pai, me parāhi hoki ngā tūranga. 19 Me parāhi ngā oko katoa o te tapenākara mō ngā mahi katoa o reira, ngā titi katoa o reira, me ngā titi katoa o te marae."

Te Hinu me te Whakapai o te Rama

20 "Me whakahau anō e koe ngā tama a Īharaira kia kawea mai ki a koe he hinu ōriwa, he mea parakore, he mea tuki, mō te whakamārama, kia kā tonu ai te rama. 21 Me whakapai e Ārona rātou ko āna tama taua mea i roto i te tapenākara o te whakaminenga, i waho o te ārai e iri ana i mua mai o te whakaaturanga, i te ahiahi ā tae noa ki te ata, ki te aroaro o Ihowā; hei tikanga tēnei mō ake tonu atu, mā ō rātou whakatupuranga, mō ngā tama a Īharaira."
