37 UBhezaleli+ wasesenza ibhokisi+ ngezigodo zesinga. Ubude balo babuzingalo* ezimbili lengxenye, ububanzi balo buyingalo eyodwa lengxenye njalo ukuphakama kwalo kuyingalo eyodwa lengxenye.+
2 Waselihuqa ngegolide elicengekileyo phakathi langaphandle futhi waligombolozela ngomqolo wegolide amacele wonke.+
3 Waphinda wenzela ibhokisi amaringi egolide amane, aba ngaphezu kwenyawo zalo ezine. Amabili ayekuleli icele, amanye amabili ekwelinye icele.
4 Ngemva kwalokho wabaza izigodo zesinga wazihuqa ngegolide.+
5 Wasehloma izigodo lezo phakathi kwamaringi asemaceleni ebhokisi ukuze zibe ngezokulithwala.+
6 Wasesenza isivalo sebhokisi ngegolide elicengekileyo,+ ubude baso babuzingalo ezimbili lengxenye, ububanzi baso buyingalo eyodwa lengxenye.+
7 Wenza lamakherubhi+ amabili ngegolide esebenzisa isando, wawenza aba sekucineni kwesivalo+ ngapha langapha kwaso.
8 Elinye ikherubhi lalikuleli icele ekucineni, elinye likwelinye icele ekucineni. Wawenza aba sekucineni kwesivalo ngapha langapha kwaso.
9 Amakherubhi la womabili ayeyelulele impiko zawo phezulu agubuzela isivalo ngempiko zawo.+ Ayekhangelene futhi ekhotheme akhangelisa ubuso bawo phansi esivalweni.+
10 Wasesenza itafula ngezigodo zesinga.+ Ubude bayo babuzingalo ezimbili, ububanzi bayo buyingalo eyodwa njalo ukuphakama kwayo kuyingalo eyodwa lengxenye.+
11 Waseyihuqa ngegolide elicengekileyo futhi wayicecisa ngomqolo wegolide amacele wonke.
12 Wasesenza ibhanti eliyigombolozeleyo elilingana lobubanzi beminwe emine nxa ihlangene* njalo wenza lomqolo wegolide owawugombolozela ibhanti lelo.
13 Kanti njalo wayenzela amaringi egolide amane wawafaka emakhoneni ayo amane lapho okuhlangana khona inyawo zayo ezine lengxenye ephezulu.
14 Amaringi la ayeseduze lebhanti ukuze abambe izigodo zokuthwala itafula.
15 Wasebaza izigodo zesinga wazihuqa ngegolide ukuze zibe ngezokuthwala itafula.
16 Ngemva kwalokho wenza izitsha ngegolide elicengekileyo, ezazizafakwa phezu kwetafula. Wenza inditshi, lamankomitsho, lemiganu kanye lamajagi okwakuzathelwa ngakho iminikelo yokunathwayo.+
17 Wasesenza uluthi lwesibane+ ngegolide elicengekileyo, walwenza esebenzisa isando. Isisekelo salo, lomqwayi walo, lamankomitsho alo, leziduku zalo kanye lamaluba alo kwakuyintonye.+
18 Umqwayi woluthi lwesibane wawulengatsha eziyisithupha, ezintathu zikwelinye icele lezinye ezintathu kwelinye icele.
19 Ugatsha ngalunye lwalulamankomitsho amathathu ayebunjwe samaluba esihlahla sama-alimondi, isiduku leluba kufakwe kwalandelana. Lakwelinye icele ugatsha ngalunye lwalulamankomitsho amathathu ayebunjwe samaluba esihlahla sama-alimondi, isiduku leluba kufakwe kwalandelana. Lokhu yikho okwenziwa engatsheni eziyisithupha ezazisemqwayini woluthi lwesibane.
20 Umqwayi woluthi lwesibane lawo wawulamankomitsho amane ayebunjwe samaluba esihlahla sama-alimondi, isiduku leluba kufakwe kwalandelana.
21 Ngaphansi kwengatsha zokuqala ezazisemqwayini woluthi lwesibane kwakulesiduku, langaphansi kwezimbili ezilandelayo kwakulesiduku, langaphansi kwezinye ezimbili ezilandelayo kwakulesiduku. Zazinjalo ingatsha eziyisithupha ezazisemqwayini woluthi lwesibane.
22 Iziduku lengatsha kanye lalo lonke uluthi lwesibane kwakwenziwe kwaba yintonye eyenziwe ngegolide elicengekileyo kusetshenziswa isando.
23 Waselwenzela izibane eziyisikhombisa+ lendlawu* zakhona kanye lenkezwana zokuthwala amalahle. Konke lokhu wakwenza ngegolide elicengekileyo.
24 Wenza uluthi lwesibane kanye lazo zonke izitsha zalo ngegolide elicengekileyo elilingana lethalenta.*
25 Wasesenza i-alithare lokutshisela impepha+ ngezigodo zesinga. Lalilingana amacele wonke, liyingalo eyodwa ubude, lengalo eyodwa ububanzi, lengalo ezimbili ukuphakama. Impondo zalo zazibunjwe zaba yintonye lalo.+
26 Walihuqa ngegolide elicengekileyo, phezulu lasemaceleni alo wonke lasempondweni zalo, walenzela lomqolo wegolide oligombolozeleyo.
27 Waselenzela amaringi amabili egolide ngaphansi komqolo walo, emaceleni amabili akhangeleneyo ukuze abambe izigodo zokulithwala.
28 Ngemva kwalokho wabaza izigodo zesinga wazihuqa ngegolide.
29 Wenza lamafutha angcwele+ kanye lempepha enukelelayo,+ ehlanzekileyo futhi konke kwakuhlanganiswe ngobungcitshi.*
