ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «اصْعَدْ إِلَيَّ أَنْتَ وَهَرُونُ وَنَادَابُ وَأَبِيهُو، وَسَبْعُونَ مِنْ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَلْيَسْجُدْ هَؤُلاءِ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ. ١ 1
He also said to Moses: “Ascend to the Lord, you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy elders out of Israel, and adore from a distance.
لَا يَقْتَرِبْ إِلَيَّ أَحَدٌ سِوَاكَ، أَمَّا الآخَرُونَ فَيَبْقُونَ بَعِيداً. وَحَذَارِ أَنْ يَصْعَدَ الشَّعْبُ مَعَكَ». ٢ 2
And only Moses will ascend to the Lord, and these shall not approach. Neither shall the people ascend with him.”
فَجَاءَ مُوسَى وَبَلَّغَ الشَّعْبَ بِكُلِّ كَلامِ الرَّبِّ وَأَحْكَامِهِ، فَأَجَابَ الشَّعْبُ بِصَوْتٍ وَاحِدٍ: «كُلُّ مَا أَمَرَنَا بِهِ الرَّبُّ نَفْعَلُ». ٣ 3
Therefore, Moses went and explained to the people all the words of the Lord, as well as the judgments. And all the people responded with one voice: “We will do all the words of the Lord, which he has spoken.”
فَكَتَبَ مُوسَى جَمِيعَ أَقْوَالِ الرَّبِّ، ثُمَّ بَكَّرَ فِي الصَّبَاحِ وَشَيَّدَ مَذْبَحاً عَلَى سَفْحِ الجَبَلِ، وَنَصَبَ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ عَمُوداً عَلَى عَدَدِ أَسْبَاطِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ الاثْنَيْ عَشَرَ. ٤ 4
Then Moses wrote all the words of the Lord. And rising up in the morning, he built an altar at the base of the mountain, with twelve titles according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
وَأَرْسَلَ بَعْضَ شُبَّانِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَقَدَّمُوا مُحْرَقَاتٍ وَقَرَّبُوا ذَبَائِحَ سَلامَةٍ لِلرَّبِّ مِنَ الْعُجُولِ، ٥ 5
And he sent youths from the sons of Israel, and they offered holocausts, and they immolated calves as peace-offerings to the Lord.
وَأَخَذَ مُوسَى نِصْفَ الدَّمِ وَاحْتَفَظَ بِهِ فِي طُسُوسٍ وَرَشَّ النِّصْفَ الْبَاقِي عَلَى الْمَذْبَحِ. ٦ 6
And so Moses took one half part of the blood, and he put it into bowls. Then the remaining part he poured over the altar.
وَتَنَاوَلَ كِتَابَ الْعَهْدِ وَتَلاهُ عَلَى مَسَامِعِ الشَّعْبِ، فَقَالُوا: «كُلُّ مَا أَمَرَ بِهِ الرَّبُّ نَفْعَلُهُ وَنُطِيعُهُ». ٧ 7
And taking up the book of the covenant, he read it in the hearing of the people, who said: “All that the Lord has spoken, we will do, and we will be obedient.”
ثُمَّ أَخَذَ مُوسَى الدَّمَ الَّذِي فِي الطُّسُوسِ وَرَشَّهُ عَلَى الشَّعْبِ قَائِلاً: «هُوَذَا دَمُ الْعَهْدِ الَّذِي قَطَعَهُ الرَّبُّ مَعَكُمْ بِنَاءً عَلَى جَمِيعِ هَذِهِ الأَقْوَالِ». ٨ 8
In truth, taking up the blood, he sprinkled it on the people, and he said, “This is the blood of the covenant, which the Lord has formed with you concerning all these words.”
ثُمَّ صَعِدَ مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ وَنَادَابُ وَأَبِيهُو وَسَبْعُونَ مِنْ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٩ 9
And Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel ascended.
وَرَأَوْا إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَتَحْتَ قَدَمَيْهِ أَرْضِيَّةٌ كَأَنَّهَا مَصْنُوعَةٌ مِنَ الْيَاقُوتِ الأَزْرَقِ الشَّفَّافِ تُمَاثِلُ السَّمَاءَ فِي النَّقَاءِ، ١٠ 10
And they saw the God of Israel. And under his feet was something like a work of sapphire stone, or like the sky, when it is serene.
وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ لَمْ يَمُدَّ يَدَهُ لِيُهْلِكَ أَشْرَافَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَرَأَوْا اللهَ وَأَكَلُوا وَشَرِبُوا. ١١ 11
Neither did he lay his hand upon those of the sons of Israel who were at a distance. And they saw God, and they ate and drank.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «اصْعَدْ إِلَى الْجَبَلِ وَامْكُثْ هُنَاكَ لأُعْطِيَكَ الْوَصَايَا وَالشَّرَائِعَ الَّتِي كَتَبْتُهَا عَلَى لَوْحَيِ الْحَجَرِ لِتُلَقِّنَهَا لَهُمْ». ١٢ 12
Then the Lord said to Moses: “Ascend to me on the mountain, and be there. And I will give to you tablets of stone, and the law and the commandments that I have written. So may you teach them.”
فَقَامَ مُوسَى وَأَخَذَ خَادِمَهُ يَشُوعَ وَصَعِدَ إِلَى جَبَلِ اللهِ. ١٣ 13
Moses rose up, with Joshua his minister. And Moses, ascending on the mountain of God,
وَقَالَ لِلشُّيُوخِ: «انْتَظِرُونَا هُنَا حَتَّى نَرْجِعَ إِلَيْكُمْ. وَهُوَذَا هَرُونُ وَحُورُ مَعَكُمْ، فَإِنْ كَانَ لأَحَدٍ دَعْوَى فَلْيَرْفَعْهَا إِلَيْهِمَا». ١٤ 14
said to the elders: “Wait here, until we return to you. You have Aaron and Hur with you. If any question arises, you shall refer it to them.”
وَعِنْدَمَا صَعِدَ مُوسَى إِلَى الجَبَلِ، تَغَطَّى الجَبَلُ بِالسَّحَابِ، ١٥ 15
And when Moses had ascended, a cloud covered the mountain.
وَحَلَّ مَجْدُ الرَّبِّ عَلَى جَبَلِ سِينَاءَ، وَغَطَّاهُ السَّحَابُ سِتَّةَ أَيَّامٍ. وَفِي الْيَوْمِ السَّابِعِ دَعَا الرَّبُّ مُوسَى مِنْ وَسَطِ السَّحَابِ. ١٦ 16
And the glory of the Lord dwelt upon Sinai, covering it with a cloud for six days. And on the seventh day, he called to him from the middle of the mist.
وَبَدَا مَجْدُ الرَّبِّ لِعُيُونِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَنَارٍ آكِلَةٍ عَلَى قِمَّةِ الجَبَلِ. ١٧ 17
Now the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a burning fire over the summit of the mountain in the sight of the sons of Israel.
وَاخْتَفَى مُوسَى فِي وَسَطِ السَّحَابِ وَصَعِدَ إِلَى الجَبَلِ حَيْثُ مَكَثَ هُنَاكَ أَرْبَعِينَ نَهَاراً وَأَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً. ١٨ 18
And Moses, entering into the midst of the cloud, ascended the mountain. And he was there for forty days and forty nights.
