¹[Ny alitara fandoroana ditin-kazo manitra] Ary manaova alitara handoroana ditin-kazo manitra; hazo akasia no hanaovanao azy.

¹“You shall make an altar to burn incense on. You shall make it of acacia wood.

²Ho iray hakiho avy ny lafiny efatra, dia ho efa-joro izy, ary ho roa hakiho ny hahavony; koa ataovy miray aminy ny tandrony.

²Its length shall be a cubit, and its breadth a cubit. It shall be square, and its height shall be two cubits. Its horns shall be of one piece with it.

³Ary petaho takela-bolamena tsara izy, dia ny tampony sy ny lafiny manodidina ary ny tandrony; ary asio koronosy volamena manodidina.

³You shall overlay it with pure gold, its top, its sides around it, and its horns; and you shall make a gold molding around it.

⁴Ary asio vava volamena roa izy eo ambanin'ny koronosiny, ka ataovy eo amin'ny zorony efatra ireo; ary ho fitoeran'ny bao ireo hilanjana azy.

⁴You shall make two golden rings for it under its molding; on its two ribs, on its two sides you shall make them; and they shall be for places for poles with which to bear it.

⁵Ary hazo akasia no anaovy ny bao, ka petaho takela-bolamena.

⁵You shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold.

⁶Ary apetraho eo anoloan'ny efitra izay manakona ny fiaran'ny Vavolombelona izy, dia manandrify ny rakotra fanaovam-panavotana eo ambonin'ny Vavolombelona, izay hihaonako aminao.

⁶You shall put it before the veil that is by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will meet with you.

⁷Ary Arona handoro ditin-kazo mani-pofona eo; isa-maraina, raha mamboatra ny lela fanaovan-jiro, no handoroany izany;

⁷Aaron shall burn incense of sweet spices on it every morning. When he tends the lamps, he shall burn it.

⁸ary raha mampirehitra ny lela fanaovan-jiro Arona nony hariva no handoroany izany koa; ditin-kazo mani-pofona eo anatrehan'i Jehovah mandrakariva hatramin'ny taranakareo fara mandimby izany.

⁸When Aaron lights the lamps at evening, he shall burn it, a perpetual incense before Yahweh throughout your generations.

⁹Aza manatitra ditin-kazo manitra tsy izy eo ianareo, na fanatitra dorana, na fanatitra hohanina; ary aza manidina fanatitra aidina eo.

⁹You shall offer no strange incense on it, nor burnt offering, nor meal offering; and you shall pour no drink offering on it.

¹⁰Ary aoka Arona hanao fanavotana eo amin'ny tandrony indray mandeha isan-kerintaona; amin'ny ran'ny fanatitra noho ny ota, izay atao fanavotana, indray mandeha isan-kerintaona, no hanaovany fanavotana eo, hatramin'ny taranakareo fara mandimby; ho masina indrindra ho an'i Jehovah izany.

¹⁰Aaron shall make atonement on its horns once in the year; with the blood of the sin offering of atonement once in the year he shall make atonement for it throughout your generations. It is most holy to Yahweh.”

¹¹[Ny handoavana ny vola avotra] Ary Jehovah niteny tamin'i Mosesy ka nanao hoe;

¹¹Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

¹²Raha maka ny isan'ny Zanak'Isiraely araka ny fandaminana azy ianao, dia samy handoa avotry ny ainy avy ho an'i Jehovah ny isan-olona, raha alamina izy, mba tsy hisy areti-mandringana hanjo azy, raha alamina izy.

¹²“When you take a census of the children of Israel, according to those who are numbered among them, then each man shall give a ransom for his soul to Yahweh, when you number them; that there be no plague among them when you number them.

¹³Izao no haloan'izay re­hetra voalamina, dia antsasaky ny sekely avy araka ny sekely masina (gera roa-polo ny sekely iray), eny, antsasaky ny sekely ho fanatitra ho an'i Jehovah.

¹³They shall give this, everyone who passes over to those who are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary; (the shekel is twenty gerahs;) half a shekel for an offering to Yahweh.

¹⁴Izay rehetra voalamina hatramin'ny roa-polo taona no ho miakatra no handoa ny fanatitra ho an'i Jehovah.

¹⁴Everyone who passes over to those who are numbered, from twenty years old and upward, shall give the offering to Yahweh.

¹⁵Ny manan-karena tsy handoa mihoatra noho ny antsasaky ny sekely, ary ny malahelo tsy handoa latsaka, raha mandoa ny fanatitra ho an'i Jehovah izy, hanavotra ny ainareo.

¹⁵The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less, than the half shekel, when they give the offering of Yahweh, to make atonement for your souls.

¹⁶Ary handray ny vola avotra amin'ny Zanak'Isiraely ianao, ka hataonao amin'ny fanompoana ao amin'ny trano-lay fihaonana; ary ho fahatsiarovana ho an'ny Zanak'Isiraely eo anatrehan'i Jehovah izany, ho avotry ny ainareo.

¹⁶You shall take the atonement money from the children of Israel, and shall appoint it for the service of the Tent of Meeting; that it may be a memorial for the children of Israel before Yahweh, to make atonement for your souls.”

¹⁷[Ny tavy, sy ny diloilo fanosorana, ary ny ditin-kazo manitra] Ary Jehovah niteny tamin'i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:

¹⁷Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

¹⁸Manaova tavy varahina hanasana, ary aoka ho varahina koa ny faladiany; ary apetraho eo anelanelan'ny trano-lay fihaonana sy ny alitara izy, ka asio rano eo anatiny.

¹⁸“You shall also make a basin of brass, and its base of brass, in which to wash. You shall put it between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and you shall put water in it.

¹⁹Ary eo no hanasan'i Arona sy ny zanany ny tongony aman-tanany.

¹⁹Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet in it.

²⁰Raha miditra amin'ny trano-lay fihaonana izy, dia hisasa amin'ny rano, mba tsy hahafaty azy. Ary raha manakaiky ny alitara hanao fanompoam-pivavahana izy, mba handoro ny fanatitra atao amin'ny afo ho an'i Jehovah,

²⁰When they go into the Tent of Meeting, they shall wash with water, that they not die; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

²¹dia hanasa ny tongony aman-tànany izy, mba tsy hahafaty azy; ary ho lalàna mandrakizay aminy sy ny zanany izany hatramin'ny taranany fara mandimby.

²¹So they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they not die: and it shall be a statute forever to them, even to him and to his descendants throughout their generations.”

²²Ary Jehovah niteny tamin'i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:

²²Moreover Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

²³Makà zava-manitra tsara ho anao, dia miora mitete dimam-jato sekely sy havozomanitra antsasak'izany, dia dimam-polo amby roan-jato, sy veromanitra dimam-polo amby roan-jato

²³“Also take fine spices: of liquid myrrh, five hundred shekels; and of fragrant cinnamon half as much, even two hundred and fifty; and of fragrant cane, two hundred and fifty;

²⁴sy kasia dimam-jato; araka ny sekely masina, ary diloilon'oliva eran'ny hina;

²⁴and of cassia five hundred, after the shekel of the sanctuary; and a hin of olive oil.

²⁵dia amboary ho diloilo fanosorana masina izany, ho zavatra aharoharo, asan'ny mpangaroharo zava-manitra; ho diloilo fanosorana masina izany.

²⁵You shall make it a holy anointing oil, a perfume compounded after the art of the perfumer: it shall be a holy anointing oil.

²⁶Ary hosory amin'izany ny trano-lay fihaonana sy ny fiaran'ny Vavolombelona,

²⁶You shall use it to anoint the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the testimony,

²⁷sy ny latabatra mbamin'ny fanaka rehetra momba azy sy ny fanaovan-jiro mbamin'ny fanaka momba azy sy ny alitara fandoroana ditin-kazo manitra,

²⁷the table and all its articles, the lampstand and its accessories, the altar of incense,

²⁸ary ny alitara fandoroana ny fanatitra dorana mbamin'ny fanaka rehetra momba azy ary ny tavy sy ny faladiany.

²⁸the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin with its base.

²⁹Ary hamasino ireo mba ho masina indrindra; ary ho masina izay rehetra manendry azy.

²⁹You shall sanctify them, that they may be most holy. Whatever touches them shall be holy.

³⁰Ary hosory Arona sy ny zanany, ka hamasino izy mba ho mpisorona ho Ahy.

³⁰You shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and sanctify them, that they may minister to me in the priest’s office.

³¹Ary mitenena amin'ny Zanak'Isiraely hoe: Ity ho diloilo fanosorana masina ho Ahy hatramin'ny taranakareo fara mandimby.

³¹You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘This shall be a holy anointing oil to me throughout your generations.

³²Aoka tsy hihosoran'ny olon-kafa izany, na hisy haka tahaka azy, araka ny fanaovana azy; fa masina izy ka ho masina aminareo.

³²It shall not be poured on man’s flesh, neither shall you make any like it, according to its composition: it is holy. It shall be holy to you.

³³Na zovy na zovy mangaroharo izay tahaka azy, ary na zovy na zovy manosotra azy amin'ny vahiny dia hofongorana tsy ho amin'ny fireneny.

³³Whoever compounds any like it, or whoever puts any of it on a stranger, he shall be cut off from his people.’”

³⁴Dia hoy Jehovah tamin'i Mosesy: Makà zava-manitra ho anao, dia natafa sy sekeleta sy helbena ary lebona madio; samy hamboarina manokana ireo.

³⁴Yahweh said to Moses, “Take to yourself sweet spices, gum resin, and onycha, and galbanum; sweet spices with pure frankincense: there shall be an equal weight of each;

³⁵Ary ataovy ditin-kazo manitra izy, dia zavatra aharoharo araka ny fanaon'ny mpangaroharo zava-manitra, dia asio sira izy, ary aoka ho madio sy masina.

³⁵and you shall make incense of it, a perfume after the art of the perfumer, seasoned with salt, pure and holy:

³⁶Ary torotoroy ny sasany ho madinika indrindra, dia ataovy eo anoloan'ny Vavolombelona ao amin'ny trano-lay fihaonana, izay hihaonako aminao; ho masina indrindra ho anareo izany.

³⁶and you shall beat some of it very small, and put some of it before the testimony in the Tent of Meeting, where I will meet with you. It shall be to you most holy.

³⁷Ary ny amin'ny ditin-kazo manitra izay hataonao, dia aza mba misy atao tahaka azy ny ho anareo; ho masina aminao ho an'i Jehovah izany.Na zovy na zovy manao izay tahaka azy ho fanorohana dia hofongorana tsy ho amin'ny fireneny.

³⁷The incense which you shall make, according to its composition you shall not make for yourselves: it shall be to you holy for Yahweh.

³⁸Na zovy na zovy manao izay tahaka azy ho fanorohana dia hofongorana tsy ho amin'ny fireneny.

³⁸Whoever shall make any like that, to smell of it, he shall be cut off from his people.”
