Sunglatnah 24

1 Moses taengah, “Namah neh Aaron, Nadab, Abihu neh Israel khuikah a ham rhoek sawmrhih te BOEIPA taengah ha mop lamtah lakhla la bakop uh saeh.

And to Moses he said, Go up to the Lord, you and Aaron and Nadab and Abiud, and seventy of the elders of Israel: and they shall worship the Lord from a distance.

2 Tedae Moses amah bueng te BOEIPA taengah mop saeh. Amih te mop uh boel saeh lamtah pilnam khaw a taengla cet uh boel saeh,” a ti nah.

And Moses alone shall draw near to God; and they shall not draw near, and the people shall not come up with them.

3 Te phoeiah Moses te cet tih BOEIPA ol boeih neh laitloeknah boeih te pilnam taengah a thui pah. Pilnam pum loh ol pakhat la a doo uh tih, “BOEIPA loh a thui ol te boeih ngai uh sih,” a ti uh.

And Moses went in and related to the people all the words of God and the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice, saying, All the words which the Lord has spoken, we will do and be obedient.

4 Moses loh BOEIPA ol te boeih a daek. Mincang ah thoo tih tlang hmuiah hmueihtuk neh Israel koca hlai nit kah kaam hlai nit a suem.

And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and built an altar under the mountain, and [set up] twelve stones for the twelve tribes of Israel.

5 Te phoeiah Israel ca cadong te a tueih tih hmueihhlutnah te a khuen uh. Te vaengah BOEIPA taengah rhoepnah hmueih la vaito a nawn uh.

And he sent forth the young men of the children of Israel, and they offered whole burnt offerings, and they sacrificed young calves as a peace-offering to God.

6 Moses loh thii rhakthuem te a loh tih baeldung dongah a khueh tih thii rhakthuem te hmueihtuk a haeh thil.

And Moses took half the blood and poured it into bowls, and half the blood he poured out upon the altar.

7 Te phoeiah paipi cabu a loh tih pilnam kah hna ah a tae. Te dongah, “BOEIPA kah a thui boeih te ka saii uh vetih ka hnatun uh bitni,” a ti uh.

And he took the book of the covenant and read it in the ears of the people, and they said, All things whatever the Lord has spoken we will do and listen therein.

8 Te phoeiah Moses loh thii te a loh tih pilnam a haeh thil. Te vaengah, “Paipi thii he BOEIPA loh he ol cungkuem neh nangmih taengah a saii coeng ne,” a ti.

And Moses took the blood and sprinkled it upon the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the Lord has made with you concerning all these words.

9 Te phoeiah Moses neh Aaron, Nadab neh Abihu neh Israel kah a hamca sawmrhih rhoek te koep cet uh.

And Moses went up, and Aaron, and Nadab and Abiud, and seventy of the elders of Israel.

10 Te vaengah Israel Pathen kah a kho hmui te minhum laiboeng kutngo bangla, vaan khocil phek la a hmuh uh.

And they saw the place where the God of Israel stood; and under his feet was as it were a work of sapphire slabs, and as it were the appearance of the firmament of heaven in its purity.

11 Tedae Israel ca hlangcong rhoek te a kut thueng thil pawh. Te dongah Pathen a hmuh uh lalah a caak uh tih a ok uh bal pueng.

And of the chosen ones of Israel there was not even one missing, and they appeared in the place of God, and did eat and drink.

12 Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Tlang soah kamah taengla ha luei lamtah pahoi om laeh. Amih thuinuet ham olkhueng neh olpaek ka daek thil lungto cabael te nang taengah kam pae eh?,” a ti nah.

And the Lord said to Moses, Come up to me into the mountain, and be there; and I will give you the tables of stone, the law and the commandments, which I have written to give them laws.

13 Te dongah Moses neh a taengah aka thotat Joshua tah thoo tih Moses te Pathen kah tlang dongla luei.

And Moses rose up and Joshua his attendant, and they went up into the mount of God.

14 A hamca rhoek te khaw, “Nangmih taengla ka mael hil he ah he kai n'rhing uh. Aaron neh Hur khaw nangmih taengah om ngawn he ne. U khaw Olka dongah laikung long tah amih rhoi taengla mop saeh,” a ti nah.

And to the elders they said, Rest there till we return to you; and behold, Aaron and Or are with you: if any man have a cause to be tried, let them go to them.

15 Moses te tlang la a luei van neh cingmai loh tlang te a thing.

And Moses and Joshua went up to the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.

16 BOEIPA kah thangpomnah tah Sinai tlang ah pai tih cingmai loh hnin rhuk a dah. A hnin rhih dongah tah Moses te cingmai khui lamloh a khue.

And the glory of God came down upon the mount Sina, and the cloud covered it six days; and the Lord called Moses on the seventh day out of the midst of the cloud.

17 BOEIPA thangpomnah mueimae khaw Israel ca rhoek kah mik ah tah tlang som aka hlawp hmai bangla tueng.

And the appearance of the glory of the Lord was as burning fire on the top of the mountain, before the children of Israel.

18 Te vaengah Moses te cingmai khui la kun tih tlang la luei. Moses te tlang ah khothaih sawmli neh khoyin sawmli om.

And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and went up to the mountain, and was there in the mountain forty days and forty nights.
