< Exodus 32 >

1 Mae hoiah Mosi angzo tathuk ai boeh, tito kaminawk mah panoek o naah, kaminawk loe Aaron khaeah amkhueng o moe, anih khaeah, Angthawk ah; kaicae hmaa ah caeh hanah sithawnawk to na sah pae ah; Izip prae thung hoi kaicae zaehoikung Mosi loe, kawbang maw oh ving boeh, tito a panoek o ai boeh, tiah a naa o.
When the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together to Aaron, and said to him, "Come, make us gods, which shall go before us; for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him."
2 Aaron mah nihcae khaeah, Na zunawk, na capanawk hoi na canunawk ih sui naa tangkraengnawk to angkhring oh loe, kai khaeah na sin oh, tiah a naa.
Aaron said to them, "Take off the golden rings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them to me."
3 To pongah kaminawk boih mah angmacae ih sui naa tangkraeng to angkring o moe, Aaron khaeah sin pae o.
All the people took off the golden rings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron.
4 Nihcae mah paek o ih hmuennawk to anih mah talawk boih moe, a sak pae pacoengah maitaw caa ih krang to a soi pae; Aw Israel, hae sithaw loe Izip prae thung hoiah nangcae zaehoikung sithawnawk boeh ni, tiah a naa.
He received what they handed him, and fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made it a molten calf; and they said, "These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt."
5 Aaron mah to hmuen to hnuk naah, maitaw caa hmaa ah hmaicam maeto sak moe, Khawnbang loe Angraeng hanah poih sakhaih niah om tih, tiah kaminawk khaeah taphongsak.
When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made a proclamation, and said, "Tomorrow shall be a feast to the LORD."
6 To pongah kaminawk loe khawnbang khawnthaw ah angthawk o moe, hmai angbawnhaih hoi angdaeh angbawnhaih to sak o; caak naek hanah anghnut o moe, hnawh hanah angthawk o.
They rose up early on the next day, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
7 To naah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Caeh tathuk ah, Izip prae thung hoiah na hoih ih kaminawk loe, amro o boih boeh;
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, "Go down at once, for your people whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt have corrupted themselves.
8 nihcae han ka thuih pae ih loklam to karangah angqoi o taak moe, angmacae han maitaw caa krang to a sak o boeh; to krang to bok o moe, angbawnhaih to a sak o pacoengah, Aw Israel kaminawk, hae sithaw loe Izip prae thung hoi nangcae zaehoikung sithaw ah ni oh o boeh, tiah a thuih o, tiah a naa.
They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them. They have made themselves a molten calf, and have worshiped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said, 'These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.'"
9 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Hae kaminawk hae ka hnuk boeh; nihcae loe palungthah kami ah oh o;
The LORD said to Moses, "I have seen these people, and look, they are a stiff-necked people.
10 to pongah kaimah bueng na caehtaak ah; hmai baktih kamngaeh palungphuihaih hoiah nihcae to ka kanghsak moe, kam rosak boih han; to pacoengah nang hae kalen parai acaeng ah kang sak han, tiah a naa.
Now therefore leave me alone, that my wrath may burn hot against them, and that I may consume them; and I will make of you a great nation."
11 Toe Mosi mah angmah ih Angraeng Sithaw khaeah, Angraeng, tipongah na sak thaihaih, na ban thacakhaih hoiah Izip prae thung hoi na zaehhoih ih nangmah ih kaminawk to palungphuihaih hoiah nam rosak boih han loe?
Moses pleaded with the LORD his God, and said, "O LORD, why does your wrath burn hot against your people, that you have brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?
12 Tipongah Izip kaminawk mah, Sithaw loe kasae poekhaih tawnh, to pongah ni nihcae to mae nuiah hum moe, long pum hoiah tamit boih hanah, a caeh haih, tiah thuih han koi ah oh ving loe? Hmai baktih kamngaeh palungphuihaih to dipsak ah loe, nangmah ih kaminawk nuiah sak han ih kasae poekhaih to dawnpakhuem raeh.
Why should the Egyptians speak, saying, 'He brought them forth for evil, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the surface of the earth?' Turn from your fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against your people.
13 Na tamna Abraham, Issak hoi Israel khaeah, Na caanawk loe van ih cakaeh zetto kang pungsak moe, dungzan ah qawk na toep o thai hanah, long nuiah kaom hmuennawk boih kang paek han, tiah na thuih ih lok to pahnet hmah raeh, tiah a naa.
Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self, and said to them, 'I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the sky, and all this land that I have spoken of I will give to your descendants, and they shall inherit it forever.'"
14 To naah Angraeng mah angmah ih kaminawk nuiah kasae sak han poekhaih to dawnpakhuem let.
The LORD changed his mind about the disaster which he said he would do to his people.
15 Mosi loe a ban ah hnukung thlung kangphaek hnetto sin moe, mae nui hoiah anghum tathuk; thlung kangphaek hnetto pongah, ahnuk ahmaa ca to tarik.
Moses turned, and went down from the mountain, with the two tablets of the testimony in his hand; tablets that were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other they were written.
16 To thlung kangphaek hnetto loe, Sithaw mah sak ih thlung kangphaek ah oh moe, Sithaw mah ni ca doeh tarik.
The tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tables.
17 Kaminawk hanghaih lok to Joshua mah thaih naah, Mosi khaeah, ataihaih ahmuen ah misatukhaih lok to ka thaih, tiah a naa.
When Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, "There is the noise of war in the camp."
18 Mosi mah, To hanghaih lok loe misa pazawhaih lok na ai ni, misa sunghaih lok doeh na ai ah, laasakhaih lok ni ka thaih, tiah a naa.
He said, "It isn't the voice of those who shout for victory, neither is it the voice of those who cry for being overcome; but the noise of those who sing that I hear."
19 Ataihaih ahmuen taengah phak naah, Mosi mah maitaw caa hoi nawnto hnawh kaminawk to hnuk; hmai kamngaeh baktiah palung to phui pongah, a ban ih thlung kangphaek to a vah; mae tlim ah a vah phaeng.
It happened, as soon as he came near to the camp, that he saw the calf and the dancing: and Moses' anger grew hot, and he threw the tablets out of his hands, and broke them beneath the mountain.
20 Nihcae mah sak o ih maitaw caa to a lak moe, hmai thungah a vah pae; kadip puengah naep pae pacoengah, tui pongah phuih moe, Israel kaminawk to a naeksak.
He took the calf which they had made, and burnt it with fire, ground it to powder, and scattered it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.
21 Aaron khaeah, Hae tiah kalen zaehaih to sak hanah, nihcae mah na nuiah tih hmuen maw a sak o? tiah a naa.
Moses said to Aaron, "What did these people do to you, that you have brought a great sin on them?"
22 Aaron mah, Ka angraeng, palungphuisak hmah; hae kaminawk loe kasae poekhaih a tawnh o, tito na panoek, tiah a naa.
Aaron said, "Do not let the anger of my lord grow hot. You know the people, that they are set on evil.
23 Kai khaeah, Kaicae hmabang ah ka caeh o thai hanah, sithawnawk to na sah paeh, Izip prae thung hoi kaicae zaehoikung Mosi loe, kawbang maw oh boeh, tito a panoek o ai boeh, tiah a thuih o.
For they said to me, 'Make us gods, which shall go before us; for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.'
24 To pongah kai mah nihcae khaeah, Sui tawn kaminawk boih sui to angkhring oh loe, kai khaeah na paek oh, tiah ka naa. To naah nihcae mah sui to angkhring o moe, ang paek o; kai mah hmai thungah ka vah naah, maitaw caa ah angcoeng, tiah a naa.
I said to them, 'Whoever has any gold, let them take it off:' so they gave it to me; and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf."
25 (Aaron mah kaminawk to khen laek ai boeh pongah, a misanawk hmaa ah bangkrai ah ohsak), tito Mosi mah hnuk naah,
When Moses saw that the people had broken loose, (for Aaron had let them loose for a derision among their enemies),
26 to pongah Mosi loe ataihaih khongkha ah angdoet moe, Angraeng bangah angdoe kaminawk boih, kai khaeah angzo oh, tiah a naa. To naah Levi caanawk boih anih taengah amkhueng o.
then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, "Whoever is on the LORD's side, come to me." All the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.
27 To pacoengah Mosi mah nihcae khaeah, Israel Angraeng Sithaw mah, Kami boih mah sumsen to avak nasoe; ataihaih ahmuen ih khongkha maeto hoi maeto boenghaih khoek to caeh nasoe loe, kami boih mah angmah ih nawkamya, angmah ih ampuinawk hoi angmah imtaeng kami to hum nasoe, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa.
He said to them, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, 'Every man put his sword on his thigh, and go back and forth from gate to gate throughout the camp, and every man kill his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.'"
28 Mosi mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Levinawk mah sak o; to na niah kami sang thumto duek o.
The sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.
29 To pacoengah Mosi mah, Angraeng mah vai hniah tahamhoihaih paek hanah, kami boih angmah ih capa hoi angmah ih nawkamya humhaih rang hoiah, vaihniah nangmah hoi nangmah to Angraeng khaeah nang paek o boeh, tiah a naa.
And Moses said, "You have been consecrated today to the LORD, each one at the cost of his son and of his brother, so he has given a blessing to you this day."
30 Khawnbang ah Mosi mah kaminawk khaeah, Kalen parai zaehaih to na sak o boeh; toe vaihi Angraeng khaeah ka caeh tahang moe, nangcae zae loihaih to ka sak thai thung ka sak han, tiah a naa.
It happened on the next day, that Moses said to the people, "You have committed a great sin. And now I will go up to God. Perhaps I can make atonement for your sin."
31 To pongah Mosi loe Angraeng khaeah caeh let, Aw, hae kaminawk loe kalen parai zaehaih to a sak o moeng boeh! Sui to angmacae hanah sithaw ah a sak o boeh.
Moses returned to the LORD, and said, "Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made themselves gods of gold.
32 Toe vaihiah nihcae zaehaih to tahmen raeh; a zae o haih na tahmen ai nahaeloe, na tarik ih cabu thung hoiah kai ih ahmin to phrae ving halat ah, tiah a naa.
Yet now, if you will, forgive their sin—and if not, please blot me out of your book which you have written."
33 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Ka hmaa ah zaehaih sah kami loe, anih ih ahmin to ka cabu thung hoiah ka phraek han.
The LORD said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
34 Vaihi caeh ah loe, kang thuih ih ahmuen ah kaminawk to caeh haih ah; khenah, kai ih van kami to na hmaa ah caeh tih; nihcae thuitaekhaih atue to phak naah, a zae o haih pongah nihcae to ka thuitaek han, tiah a naa.
Now go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you. Look, my angel shall go before you. Nevertheless in the day when I punish, I will punish them for their sin."
35 Aaron mah sak pae ih maitaw caa pongah, Angraeng mah kaminawk to nathaih hoiah thuitaek.
The LORD struck the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made.
