3 Muhere ku bamaze imyaka mirongo itatu mugeze ku bamaze mirongo itanu, kuko ari bo bakora imirimo yo mu Ihema ry’ibonaniro.

4 Imirimo yo mu Ihema ry’ibonaniro Abakehati bashinzwe, ni ukwita ku bintu byanyeguriwe rwose.

5 “Nimwimuka, Aroni n’abahungu be bajye bamanura umwenda ukingirije Icyumba kizira inenge cyane, bawutwikirize Isanduku irimo bya bisate by’amabuye byanditseho Amategeko,

10 Byose bajye babizingira mu ruhu rw’agaciro, binjizemo umujishi wo kubiheka.

11 Bajye batwikiriza igicaniro cy’izahabu umwenda w’isine, bawugerekeho uruhu rw’agaciro maze binjize imijishi mu bifunga byacyo.

13 Bajye bayora ivu ku rutambiro barutwikirize umwenda w’umuhemba,

14 bagerekeho ibikoresho byarwo byose: ibyotezo n’amakanya yo kwaruza inyama, n’ibitiyo byo kuyora ivu n’ibikombe n’ibindi. Babitwikirize uruhu rw’agaciro, binjize imijishi mu bifunga by’urutambiro.

15 “Aroni n’abahungu be nibarangiza gutegura ibyo bintu byanyeguriwe, Abakehati bajye baza babiheke mwimuke. Ariko ntibakabikoreho kugira ngo badapfa. Ibyo ni byo bintu byo mu Ihema ry’ibonaniro Abakehati bashinzwe guheka.

16 “Eleyazari mwene Aroni umutambyi, ajye yita ku mavuta y’amatara n’imibavu, n’amaturo y’ibinyampeke ya buri munsi n’amavuta yo gusīga. Ashinzwe Ihema n’ibirimo byose.”

17 Uhoraho arakomeza abwira Musa na Aroni ati:

18 “Muzirinde icyatuma inzu y’Abakehati irimbuka.

19 Wowe Aroni n’abahungu bawe, mujye mwereka buri Mukehati umurimo agomba gukora n’umutwaro agomba guheka. Mujye mubigenza mutyo kugira ngo badakora ku bintu byanyeguriwe bagapfa.

20 Ntibazigere babireba na rimwe batazapfa.”

23 Uhere ku bamaze imyaka mirongo itatu ugeze ku bamaze mirongo itanu, kuko ari bo bakora imirimo yo mu Ihema ry’ibonaniro.

24 Dore imirimo bashinzwe n’imitwaro bagomba gutwara.

25 Bajye batwara imyenda y’Ihema ry’ibonaniro ari yo iritwikīra, n’impu z’agaciro zirisakaye n’umwenda ukinga ku muryango waryo,

26 n’iyo kubakisha urugo ruzenguruka Ihema ry’ibonaniro n’urutambiro, n’uwo gukinga ku marembo y’urugo kimwe n’imigozi n’ibindi byose bigendana n’iyo myenda. Abagerishoni bajye bakora imirimo yabyo yose,
