Itabernakele*
1 “Wolenza itabernakele* ngezilenge eziyishumi; zona wozenza ngelineni elicolekileyo lemicu ephothiweyo nangokuluhlaza nangokububende nangokubomvu, zibe namakherubi,* kube ngumsebenzi wengcweti. 2Ubude besilenge sinye bube yizingalo ezingamashumi amabili nesishiyagalombili, ububanzi baso bube yizingalo ezine, zonke izilenge zilingane. 3Izilenge eziyisihlanu ziyakuhlanganiswa esinye nesinye, nezinye izilenge eziyisihlanu zihlanganiswe esinye nesinye. 4Wozenza izihibe ngokuluhlaza eceleni lesinye isilenge emphethweni wasekuhlanganeni, wenze njalo eceleni lesilenge sokugcina ekuhlanganeni kwesibili. 5Uyakwenza izihibe ezingamashumi ayisihlanu kwesinye isilenge, wenze futhi izihibe ezingamashumi ayisihlanu eceleni lesilenge esisekuhlanganeni kwesibili, ukuze izihibe zibhekane. 6Wenze izinkibaniso ezingamashumi ayisihlanu zegolide, uhlanganise izilenge esinye nesinye ngezinkibaniso, itabernakele libe linye.
7 “Wenze izilenge ngoboya bezimbuzi, zibe yitende phezu kwetabernakele, uzenze zibe yizilenge eziyishumi nanye. 8Ubude bezilenge bube yizingalo ezingamashumi amathathu, ububanzi bezilenge bube yizingalo ezine, lezi zilenge eziyishumi nanye zilingane. 9Wohlanganisa izilenge eziyisihlanu ngokwazo, nezilenge eziyisithupha ngokwazo, isilenge sesithupha siphindwe phambi kwetende. 10Wenze izihibe ezingamashumi ayisihlanu eceleni lesilenge esinye esokugcina sasekuhlanganeni, nezihibe ezingamashumi ayisihlanu eceleni lesilenge sokugcina ekuhlanganeni kwesibili. 11Wenze izinkibaniso ezingamashumi ayisihlanu zethusi, uzifake izinkibaniso ezihibeni, uhlanganise itende, libe linye. 12Okudluleleyo kwezilenge zetende, okuseleyo, inxenye yesilenge esiseleyo, kuyakulenga emva kwetabernakele. 13Ingalo ngalapha nengalo ngalapha kulokho okudluleleyo ebudeni bezilenge zetende azilenge emaceleni etabernakele ngalapha nangalapha ukulisibekela. 14Futhi uyakwenza isifulelo setende ngezikhumba ezibomvu zezinqama, nesifulelo sezikhumba zamatahasi* ngaphezulu.
15 “Uyakwenza amapulangwe etabernakele ngomuthi womtholo, amiswe. 16Ubude bamapulangwe bube yizingalo eziyishumi, ububanzi bawo bube yingalo nenxenye. 17Akuthi yilelo nalelo pulangwe libe nemisuka emibili, omunye malungana nomunye; wenze njalo kuwo onke amapulangwe etabernakele. 18Wenze amapulangwe etabernakele, amapulangwe angamashumi amabili ohlangothini lwaseningizimu, olubheka ngaseningizimu. 19Wenze izinyawo ezingamashumi amane esiliva phansi kwamapulangwe angamashumi amabili, izinyawo ezimbili phansi kwepulangwe linye, zibe ngezemisuka yalo yomibili, nezinyawo ezimbili phansi kwelinye ipulangwe, zibe ngezemisuka yalo yomibili, 20nasohlangothini lwesibili lwetabernakele, uhlangothi lwasenyakatho, amapulangwe angamashumi amabili, 21kanye nezinyawo zawo ezingamashumi amane esiliva, izinyawo ezimbili phansi kwelinye ipulangwe, nezinyawo ezimbili phansi kwelinye ipulangwe. 22Ohlangothini lwetabernakele olungasemuva ngasentshonalanga uyakwenza amapulangwe ayisithupha. 23Amapulangwe amabili uyakuwenzela amagumbi etabernakele angasemuva, 24aphindwe kabili phansi, nakanjalo aphelele aze afike phezulu esongweni lokuqala, kube njalo kuwo omabili, abengawamagumbi omabili. 25Kuyakuba ngamapulangwe ayisishiyagalombili nezinyawo zawo zesiliva, izinyawo eziyishumi nesithupha, izinyawo ezimbili phansi kwelinye ipulangwe nezinyawo ezimbili phansi kwelinye.
26“Woyenza imishayo yomuthi womtholo, ibe yisihlanu, ibe ngeyamapulangwe akolunye uhlangothi lwetabernakele, 27nemishayo eyisihlanu yamapulangwe akolunye uhlangothi lwetabernakele, nemishayo eyisihlanu yamapulangwe asohlangothini lwetabernakele olungasemuva ngasentshonalanga, 28umshayo waphakathi ophakathi kwamapulangwe udabule, uze ufinyelele nxazombili. 29Wonameka amapulangwe ngegolide, uwenze amasongo awo ngegolide, abe yizindawo zemishayo, unameke nemishayo ngegolide.
30 “Wolimisa itabernakele njengesifanekiso salo owaboniswa sona entabeni.
Isihenqo nomnyango
31 “Uyakwenza isihenqo ngokuluhlaza nangokububende nangokubomvu, nangelineni elicolekileyo lemicu ephothiweyo, libe namakherubi,* kube ngumsebenzi wengcweti, 32ulilengise ezinsikeni ezine zomtholo ezinamekwe ngegolide, izingwegwe zazo zibe yigolide, zime ezinyaweni ezine zesiliva. 33Uyakuphanyeka isihenqo phansi kwezinkibaniso, uwungenise umphongolo wobufakazi khona phakathi kwesihenqo, isihenqo sinahlukanisele indawo engcwele nendawo engcwelengcwele. 34Wosibeka isihlalo somusa phezu komphongolo wobufakazi endaweni engcwelengcwele, 35ubeke itafula ngaphandle kwesihenqo, uthi lwezibani lubhekane netafula ohlangothini lwetabernakele olungaseningizimu, ubeke itafula ohlangothini lwasenyakatho.
36“Uyakwenza iveli lomnyango wasetendeni ngokuluhlaza nangokububende nangokubomvu, nangelineni elicolekileyo lemicu ephothiweyo, umsebenzi womfekethisi. 37Ulenzele iveli izinsika eziyisihlanu zomtholo, uzinameke ngegolide; izingwegwe zazo mazibe yigolide, uzikhandele izinyawo eziyisihlanu zethusi.
