⁹Utorewo mabwe maviri eonikisi, ugonyora pamusoro pawo mazita avana vaIsiraeri,

⁹`And thou hast taken the two shoham stones, and hast opened on them the names of the sons of Israel;

¹⁰mazita matanhatu pabwe rimwe, namazita matanhatu akasara pane rimwe ibwezve, pakuzvarwa kwavo.

¹⁰six of their names on the one stone, and the names of the remaining six on the second stone, according to their births;

²²Napahombodo yechipfuva unofanira kuita zviketani zvakafanana norwonzi, zvendarama yakamoniwa yakaisvonaka.

²²`And thou hast made on the breastplate wreathed chains, work of thick bands, of pure gold;

²³Uitewo pahombodo yechipfuva zvindori zviviri zvendarama, ugoisa zvindori izvo zviviri pamicheto miviri yehombodo yechipfuva.

²³and thou hast made on the breastplate two rings of gold, and hast put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate;

²⁴Zvino uise zviketani zviviri zvendarama yakamoniwa pazvindori zviviri zviri pamicheto yehombodo yechipfuva.

²⁴and thou hast put the two thick bands of gold on the two rings at the ends of the breastplate;

²⁵Nemimwe miromo miviri yezviketani zviviri zvakamoniwa uzviise pazviruva zviviri, uzviise pamabandi apamafudzi eefodhi nechemberi kwayo.

²⁵and the two ends of the two thick bands thou dost put on the two embroidered things, and thou hast put [them] on the shoulders of the ephod over-against its face.

²⁶`And thou hast made two rings of gold, and hast set them on the two ends of the breastplate, on its border, which [is] over-against the ephod within;

²⁷Unofanira kuitawo zvindori zviviri zvendarama, ugozviisa pamabandi maviri apamafudzi eefodhi zasi nechemberi kwayo, pedo payakabatanidzwa napo, pamusoro pebhanhire reefodhi rakarukwa nouchenjeri.

²⁷and thou hast made two rings of gold, and hast put them on the two shoulders of the ephod, beneath, over-against its front, over-against its joining, above the girdle of the ephod,

²⁸Zvino ngavasunganidze hombodo yechipfuva nezvindori zvayo pazvindori zveefodhi norwonzi rutema, kuti ruve pamusoro pebhanhire reefodhi rakarukwa nouchenjeri, kuti hombodo yechipfuva irege kusununguka paefodhi.

²⁸and they bind the breastplate by its rings unto the rings of the ephod with a ribbon of blue, to be above the girdle of the ephod, and the breastplate is not loosed from the ephod.

²⁹Naizvozvo Aroni anofanira kutakura mazita avana vaIsiraeri pahombodo yechipfuva yokutonga pamoyo wake, kana achipinda panzvimbo tsvene, kuti chive chirangaridzo pamberi paJehovha nguva dzose.

²⁹`And Aaron hath borne the names of the sons of Israel in the breastplate of judgment, on his heart, in his going in unto the sanctuary, for a memorial before Jehovah continually.

³⁰Unofanira kuisawo muhombodo yechipfuva yokutonga Urimi neTumimi, kuti zvive pamoyo waAroni kana achipinda pamberi paJehovha; Aroni agotakura kutongwa kwavana vaIsiraeri pamoyo wake pamberi paJehovha nguva dzose.

³⁰`And thou hast put unto the breastplate of judgment the Lights and the Perfections, and they have been on the heart of Aaron, in his going in before Jehovah, and Aaron hath borne the judgment of the sons of Israel on his heart before Jehovah continually.

³¹`And thou hast made the upper robe of the ephod completely of blue,

³²Ngarive neburi rokupinza musoro pakati paro, rive nomupendero wakarukwa unopoteredza buri raro, sapaburi renguvo yokurwa, kuti irege kubvaruka.

³²and the opening for its head hath been in its midst, a border is to its opening round about, work of a weaver, as the opening of a habergeon there is to it; it is not rent.

³³Pamipendero yaro unofanira kuita matamba ezvakarukwa zvitema, nezvishava, nezvitsvuku, anopoteredza mupendero, nezvitare zvinorira zvendarama pakati pawo kunhivi dzose.

³³`And thou hast made on its hem pomegranates of blue, and purple, and scarlet, on its hem round about, and bells of gold in their midst round about;

³⁴Ngapave nechitare chimwe nedamba rimwe, chitare chimwe nedamba rimwe pamipendero yejasi kunhivi dzose.

³⁴a bell of gold and a pomegranate, a bell of gold and a pomegranate [are] on the hems of the upper robe round about.

³⁵Aroni ngaarifuke kana achishumira, kuti kurira kwazvo kunzwike, kana achipinda panzvimbo tsvene pamberi paJehovha, uye kana achibuda, kuti arege kufa.

³⁵`And it hath been on Aaron to minister in, and its sound hath been heard in his coming in unto the sanctuary before Jehovah, and in his going out, and he doth not die.

³⁶Unofanira kuitawo bwendefa rendarama yakaisvonaka, ugonyora pamusoro paro sezvinonyorwa ibwe rokusimbisa, uchiti: MUTSVENE KUNA JEHOVHA.

³⁶`And thou hast made a flower of pure gold, and hast opened on it — openings of a signet — `Holy to Jehovah;`

³⁷Uriise parwonzi rutema, rigoiswa panguwani, rive nechemberi kwenguwani.

³⁷and thou hast put it on a blue ribbon, and it hath been on the mitre — over-against the front of the mitre it is;

³⁸Ngarive pahuma yaAroni, Aroni atakure zvakaipa zvingavapo pazvinhu zvitsvene, zvichaitwa zvitsvene navana vaIsiraeri pazvipo zvavo zvitsvene zvose; rinofanira kugara pahuma yake nguva dzose, kuti ivo vagamuchirwe pamberi paJehovha.

³⁸and it hath been on the forehead of Aaron, and Aaron hath borne the iniquity of the holy things which the sons of Israel do hallow, even all their holy gifts; and it hath been on his forehead continually for a pleasing thing for them before Jehovah.

³⁹Unofanira kuitawo nguvo yakarukwa yomucheka wakaisvonaka, uye uite nguwani yomucheka wakaisvonaka, uye uitewo bhanhire, rive basa romusoni anogona.

³⁹`And thou hast embroidered the coat of linen, and hast made a mitre of linen, and a girdle thou dost make — work of an embroiderer.

⁴⁰Navanakomana vaAroni unofanira kuvaitira nguvo, uvaitirewo mabhanhire, uvaitirewo nguwani dzomusoro, vakudzwe nadzo, uye huve ukomba.

⁴⁰`And for the sons of Aaron thou dost make coats, and thou hast made for them girdles, yea, bonnets thou dost make for them, for honour and for beauty;

⁴¹Udzifukidze Aroni, mukoma wako, pamwechete navanakomana vake; uye uvazodze, nokuvagadza, nokuvatsaura, kuti vandishumire pabasa roupristi.

⁴¹and thou hast clothed Aaron thy brother with them, and his sons with him, and hast anointed them, and hast consecrated their hand, and hast sanctified them, and they have been priests to Me.

⁴²Unofanira kuvaitira mabhuruku omucheka kuti vafukidze nyama yavo yakashama; ngaatange pazviuno, asvikire pachidya;

⁴²`And make thou for them linen trousers to cover the naked flesh: they are from the loins even unto the thighs;

⁴³ngaafukwe naAroni navanakomana vake kana vachipinda mutende rokusangana, uye kana vachiswedera paaritari kushumira panzvimbo tsvene; kuti varege kuzvitorera mhosva, vakafa; ngauve mutemo usingaperi kwaari nokuvana vake vanomutevera.

⁴³and they have been on Aaron and on his sons, in their going in unto the tent of meeting, or in their drawing nigh unto the altar to minister in the sanctuary, and they do not bear iniquity nor have they died; a statute age-during to him, and to his seed after him.
