出埃及記 33
1 上主向梅瑟說：「你和你從埃及國領出的百姓離開這裏，上那地方去；關於此地，我曾誓許給亞巴郎、依撒格和雅各伯說：我要將此地獻給你的後裔。
And the Lord spak to Moyses, and seide, Go and stie fro this place, thou, and the puple, whom thou leddist out of the lond of Egipt, in to the lond, which Y haue swore to Abraham, and to Ysaac, and to Jacob, `and Y seide, Y schal yyue it to thi seed.
2 我要打發使者在你面前，我要趨逐客納罕人、阿摩黎人、赫特人、培黎齊人、希威人和耶步斯人。
And Y schal sende thi bifore goere an aungel, that Y caste out Cananey, and Amorei, and Ethei, and Ferezei, and Euey, and Jebusey;
3 你往流奶流蜜之地時，我不與你同行，因為你是個執拗的百姓，免得我在路上消滅你。」
and that thou entre in to the lond flowynge with mylk and hony; for Y schal not stye with thee, for `thou art a puple of hard nol, lest perauenture Y leese thee in the weie.
4 百姓一聽這兇信，都表示悲痛，沒有人再穿戴裝飾品。
The puple herde this worste word, and morenyde, and noon was clothid with his ournyng bi custom.
5 少主向梅瑟說：「你告訴以色列子民：你們是個執拗的百姓，我若與你同行，只一會兒，我必把你消滅。現在你把裝飾品卸下，看我要怎樣待你。」
And the Lord seide to Moises, Spek thou to the sones of Israel, Thou art a puple of hard nol; onys Y schal stie in the myddis of thee, and Y schal do awey thee; riyt now putte awei thin ournyng, that Y wite, what Y schal do to thee.
6 以色列子民從離開曷勒布山，就卸去了裝飾品。會幕
Therfor the sones of Israel puttiden awey her ournyng fro the hil of Oreb.
7 梅瑟往往將那帳幕支搭在營外，離營遠些；他稱此帳幕為「會幕。」凡求問天主的，要到營外的帳幕那裏。
And Moises took the tabernacle, and settide fer with out the castels, and he clepide the name therof the tabernacle of boond of pees. And al the puple that hadde ony questioun, yede out to the tabernacle of boond of pees, with out the castels.
8 每當梅瑟往會幕那裏去的時候，眾百姓都起來，每人站在自己帳幕門口，觀望梅瑟直到他進入會幕。
And whanne Moises yede out to the tabernacle, al the puple roos, and ech man stood in the dore of his tente, and thei bihelden `the bak of Moises, til he entride in to the tente.
9 當梅瑟進入會幕的時候，雲柱降下，停在會幕門口，上主便向梅瑟談話。
Sotheli whanne he entride in to the tabernacle of boond of pees, a piler of cloude cam doun, and stood at the dore; and the Lord spak with Moises,
10 眾百姓一見雲柱停止在會幕門口，百姓就起來，俯伏在自己的帳幕門口。
while alle men sien that the piler of cloude stood at the `dore of tabernacle; and thei stoden, and worschipiden bi the dores of her tabernaclis.
11 上主同梅瑟面對面地談話，就如人同朋友談話一樣。梅瑟回營以後，他的侍從，一個年輕人，即農的兒子若蘇厄總不離開會幕。梅瑟求見天主的榮耀
Forsothe the Lord spak to Moises face to face, as a man is wont to speke to his freend; and whanne he turnede ayen in to `the castels, Josue, his mynystre, the sone of Nun, a child, yede not awey fro the tabernacle.
12 梅瑟對上主說：「看，你吩咐了我，叫我引領這百姓，但沒有告訴我，你派誰與我同去。你還說過：提名選了你，你在我眼中得了寵。
Forsothe Moises seide to the Lord, Thou comaundist, that Y lede out this puple, and thou `schewist not to me, whom thou schalt sende with me, `most sithen thou seidist, Y knewe thee bi name, and thou hast founde grace bifore me.
13 如果我真在你眼中得寵，求你把你的道路指示給我，叫我認識你，好在你眼中得寵。也請記得這民族是你的百姓。」
Therfore if Y haue founde grace in thi siyt, schewe thi face to me, that Y knowe thee, and fynde grace bifor thin iyen; biholde thi puple, and this folk.
14 上主回答說：「我必親自去，使你獲得安所。」
And God seide, My face schal go bifor thee, and Y schal yyue reste to thee.
15 梅瑟上主說：「你若不親自去，也別叫我們從這裏上去。
And Moises seide, If thi silf schalt not go bifore, `lede not vs out of this place;
16 人怎樣知道我和你的百姓在你眼中得寵，豈不是因你與我們同行，而我和你的百姓有別於地面上所以的人民﹖」
for in what thing moun we wite, Y and thi puple, that we han founde grace in thi siyt, if thou schalt not go with vs, that we be glorified of alle puplis that dwellen on erthe?
17 上主回答說：「連你所求的事，我也要作，因為你在我眼中得了寵，我提名選了你。」
Forsothe the Lord seide to Moises, Y schal do also this word, which thou hast spoke; for thou hast founde grace bifor me, and Y knewe thi silf bi name.
18 梅瑟又說：「求你把你的榮耀顯示給我。」
And Moises seide, Schewe thou thi glorie to me.
19 上主答說：「當我在你前呼喊「雅威」名號時，我要使我的一切美善在你面前經過。我要恩待的就恩待，要憐憫的就憐憫。」
God answeride, Y schal schewe al good to thee, and Y schal clepe in the `name of the Lord bifor thee, and Y schal do merci to whom Y wole, and Y schal be merciful on whom it plesith to me.
20 又說：「我的面容你決不能看見，因為人見了我，就不能再活了。」
And eft God seide, Thou maist not se my face, for a man schal not se me, and schal lyue.
21 上主又說：「看，靠近我有個地方，你可站在那塊磐石上。
And eft God seide, A place is anentis me, and thou schalt stonde on a stoon;
22 當我的榮耀經過時，我把你放在磐石縫裏，用我的手遮掩你，直到我過去。
and whanne my glorie schal passe, Y schal sette thee in the hoole of the stoon, and Y schal kyuere with my riyt hond, til Y passe; and Y schal take awey myn hond,
23 當我縮回我的手時，你將看見我的背後，但我的面容，卻無法看見。」
and thou schalt se myn hyndrere partis, forsothe thou mayst not se my face.
