¹And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

¹Huan TOUPAN Mosi kiangah thu a gena,

²`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and they take for Me a heave-offering; from every man whose heart impelleth him ye do take My heave-offering.

²Thillat a hontawi theihna ding un, Israel suante kiangah thu gen in: michih lungtanga ut taka piate a kipanin thohlawm na la ding.

³`And this [is] the heave-offering which ye take from them; gold, and silver, and brass,

³Huan amau akipana thohlawm na lak ding hichibang ahi: Dangkaeng leh, dangka leh dal;

⁴and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and linen, and goats` [hair],

⁴Leh puan malngat dum, sandup, leh sanau leh hoih, kel mul,

⁵and rams` skins made red, and badgers` skins, and shittim wood,

⁵Belampa vun sansaksa leh ngalvang vunte leh singgi;

⁶oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil, and for the perfume of the spices,

⁶A vakdingin sathau, thaunuh dingin gimlim, gim namtui ading tohin;

⁷shoham stones, and stones for setting for an ephod, and for a breastplate.

⁷Onik suangte, siampupuan leh awmtuama siat ding suangte.

⁸`And they have made for Me a sanctuary, and I have tabernacled in their midst;

⁸Huan mun siangthou hon bawl sak uhen; a lak ua ka ten theihna ding in.

⁹according to all that which I am shewing thee, the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all its vessels, even so ye do make [it].

⁹Nang ka honetsak bangbangin, biakbuk lim bangin leh, huaia vanzat tengteng lim bangin, huchibang bangin na bawl ding hi.

¹⁰`And they have made an ark of shittim wood; two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height;

¹⁰Huan singgi sing thukhun bawm a bawl ding ua: huai dunglam tongnih leh a kim ahi dinga, huai vailam tong khat leh a kim ahi dinga, huai sanlam tong khat leh a kim ahi ding.

¹¹and thou hast overlaid it [with] pure gold, within and without thou dost overlay it, and thou hast made on it a ring of gold round about.

¹¹Dangkaeng takin na luan dinga, a sunglam leh a polam na luan dinga, huchiin a kim a velah dangkaeng lallukhu bawlin a tungah na bawl ding hi.

¹²`And thou hast cast for it four rings of gold, and hast put [them] on its four feet, even two rings on its one side, and two rings on its second side;

¹²Huan a sikkual dangkaengin li na sung dia, huan huaia a ning liteah na bulh ding; huchiin sikkual nih a pang khatah a om ding ua, sikkual nih a pang dangah a om ding uh.

¹³and thou hast made staves of shittim wood, and hast overlaid them [with] gold,

¹³Huan singgi sing chiang na bawl dinga, dangkaengin na luan ding hi.

¹⁴and hast brought the staves into the rings on the sides of the ark, to bear the ark by them,

¹⁴Huchiin thukhunna bawm sika sikkualte sungah chiangte na thun lut dinga, huaitea thukhunna bawn jawn a hihtheihna dingin.

¹⁵in the rings of the ark are the staves, they are not turned aside from it;

¹⁵Chiangte thukhunna bawm sikkual sunga a om ding uh ahi.

¹⁶and thou hast put unto the ark the testimony which I give unto thee.

¹⁶Huan thukhunna bawm sungah ka honpiak ding theihsakna na koih ding.

¹⁷`And thou hast made a mercy-seat of pure gold, two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth;

¹⁷Huan dangkaeng takin chitna tutphah na bawl ding: huaia dunglam tong nih leh a kim ahi dinga, huaia vailam tong khat leh a kim ahi ding.

¹⁸and thou hast made two cherubs of gold, beaten work dost thou make them, at the two ends of the mercy-seat;

¹⁸Chitna tutphah mong nihte ah, dangkaengin cherubte na bawl dia, huaite nasep toh helin na bawl ding.

¹⁹and make thou one cherub at the end on this side, and one cherub at the end on that; at the mercy-seat ye do make the cherubs on its two ends.

¹⁹Huan cherub khat a mong khat ah na bawl dia, cherub khat a mong khat lamah: huaia a mongnihte ah chitna tutphah ngeiah cherubte na bawl ding hi.

²⁰`And the cherubs have been spreading out wings on high, covering the mercy-seat over with their wings, and their faces [are] one towards another — towards the mercy-seat are the faces of the cherubs.

²⁰Huchin cherubten tungsang lamah a khate uh a jak khe ding ua, a khate ua chitna tutphah tuamin, a mai un a kien tuah ding ua; cherubte maite chitna tutphah lamah a om ding.

²¹`And thou hast put the mercy-seat on the ark above, and unto the ark thou dost put the testimony which I give unto thee;

²¹Huchiin thukhunna bawm tungah chitna tutpha na koih ding; huan thukhunna bawm sungah ka honpiak ding theihsakna na koihding hi.

²²and I have met with thee there, and have spoken with thee from off the mercy-seat (from between the two cherubs, which [are] on the ark of the testimony) all that which I command thee concerning the sons of Israel.

²²Huchiin huailaiah kon kimuhpih dinga, huchiin chitna tutphah tunga kipan, theihsakna thukhunna bawm tunga om cherub nihte kikala kipanin, Israel suante kianga thupiaka ka honpiak ding thil tengteng thuah, ka honhoupih ding hi.

²³`And thou hast made a table of shittim wood, two cubits its length, and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height,

²³Singgiin dohkan leng na bawl ding; huaia dunglam tongnih ahi ding, huaia vailam tong khat, huaia sanlam tongkhat leh a kim ahi ding.

²⁴and hast overlaid it [with] pure gold, and hast made for it a crown of gold round about,

²⁴Dangkaeng takin na luan ding, huaiah a kim a velin dangkaeng lalukhu na bawl ding hi.

²⁵and hast made for it a border of a handbreadth round about, and hast made a crown of gold to its border round about.

²⁵Huan akim a velin huaiah khut chia a gei na bawl ding, huan akim avelin huaiah a geiah dangkaeng lallukhu na bawl ding.

²⁶`And thou hast made to it four rings of gold, and hast put the rings on the four corners, which [are] to its four feet;

²⁶A sikkhual ding in dangkaengin li na bawl ding, sikkualte a ninglite huaia khap li tunga omte ah na koih ding.

²⁷over-against the border are the rings for places for staves to bear the table;

²⁷Dohkan puakna dingin chiangte omna dingin a gei chinah sikkualte a om ding uhi.

²⁸and thou hast made the staves of shittim wood, and hast overlaid them with gold, and the table hath been borne with them;

²⁸Huan singgiin chiangte na bawl dia, dangkaengin na luan dia, huaitea dohkan a kipuak theihna dingin.

²⁹and thou hast made its dishes, and its bowls, and its covers, and its cups, with which they pour out; of pure gold thou dost make them;

²⁹Huan huaia kuangte, huaia keute, huaia sinte, huaia noute, a sitna dingin na bawl ding hi: huaite dangkaeng takin na bawl ding hi.

³⁰and thou hast put on the table bread of the presence before Me continually.

³⁰Ka maah dohkan tungah tanghou sawm leh nih na koih gige ding hi.

³¹`And thou hast made a candlestick of pure gold, of beaten work is the candlestick made; its base, and its branch, its calyxes, its knops, and its flowers are of the same;

³¹Huan dangkaeng takin khawnvak koihna na bawl ding: khawnvak koihna nasep tohhelin na bawl ding; a kungpi leh ahiangte, a pakmum leh a pakte, a kibang mahin:

³²and six branches are coming out of its sides, three branches of the candlestick out of the one side, and three branches of the candlestick out of the second side;

³²Huchiin a pangte a kipanin hiang guk a ka khe ding; khawnvak koihna pang khata kipanin hiang thum, khawnvak koihna pang danga kipanin hiang thum:

³³three calyxes made like almonds in the one branch, a knop and a flower, and three calyxes made like almonds in one branch, a knop and a flower; so for the six branches which are coming out from the candlestick.

³³Belkuang thumte makha banga bawlte, hiang khata pakmum leh pak; huan hiang danga belkuang thumte makha banga bawlte, pakmum leh pak: huchibangin khawnvak koihna akipana hongsuak hiang gukte:

³⁴`And in the candlestick [are] four calyxes made like almonds, its knops and its flowers;

³⁴Huan khawnvak koihna ah belkuang li makha banga bawl a om ding, a pakmumte leh pakte utoh:

³⁵and a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, [are] to the six branches which are coming out of the candlestick;

³⁵Huchiin huai maha hiang nihte nuaiah pakmum khat a om dia, huan huai maha hiang nihte nuaiah a pakmum khawnvak koihna akipana hongsuak khia hiang gukte dung juiin.

³⁶their knops and their branches are of the same, all of it one beaten work of pure gold;

³⁶A pakmumte leh ahiangte uh akibang ding ua: a vekin dangkaeng taka nasep tohhel ahi ding hi.

³⁷and thou hast made its seven lamps, and [one] hath caused its lights to go up, and it hath given light over-against its front.

³⁷Huan huaiah khawnvak sagih na bawl dia: huchiin huaiah khawnvakte a de ding ua, a panga vakna a piak theihna ding un.

³⁸`And its snuffers and its snuff dishes [are] of pure gold;

³⁸Huaia taitehte leh, huaia a meivukuangte, dangkaeng tak ahi ding uh.

³⁹of a talent of pure gold he doth make it, with all these vessels.

³⁹Hiai belsuante tengteng toh dangkaeng tak talent khatin a bawl ding ahi.Tanga honetsak uh, a lim dungjuia bawl dingin pilvangin, a chi hi.

⁴⁰And see thou and do [them] by their pattern which thou art shewn in the mount.

⁴⁰Tanga honetsak uh, a lim dungjuia bawl dingin pilvangin, a chi hi.
