Izlazak 24
1 Potom reče Mojsiju: “Uzađi k Jahvi - ti, Aron, Nadab i Abihu i sedamdeset izraelskih starješina. Poklonite se izdaljega!
And he said to Moses, Come up to Jehovah, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, and worship ye afar off.
2 Neka se sam Mojsije primakne k Jahvi! Oni neka se ne primiču, a puk neka se s njim ne penje.”
And Moses alone shall come near to Jehovah, but they shall not come near, neither shall the people go up with him.
3 Dođe Mojsije i kaza narodu sve riječi Jahvine i sve odredbe. A sav puk odgovori u jedan glas: “Sve riječi što ih Jahve reče, vršit ćemo.”
And Moses came and told the people all the words of Jehovah, and all the ordinances. And all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which Jehovah has spoken will we do.
4 Tada Mojsije popiše sve riječi Jahvine. A ujutro podrani te podigne žrtvenik na podnožju brda i dvanaest stupova za dvanaest plemena Izraelovih.
And Moses wrote all the words of Jehovah, and rose up early in the morning, and built an altar below the mount, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
5 Zatim naloži mladim Izraelcima da prinesu žrtve paljenice i da žrtvuju Jahvi junce kao žrtve pričesnice.
And he sent young men of the sons of Israel, who offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen to Jehovah.
6 Mojsije uhvati krv; polovinu krvi ulije u posude, a polovinu izlije po žrtveniku.
And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basins, and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
7 Prihvati zatim Knjigu Saveza pa je narodu glasno pročita, a narod uzvrati: “Sve što je Jahve rekao, izvršit ćemo i poslušat ćemo.”
And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people. And they said, All that Jehovah has spoken will we do, and be obedient.
8 Mojsije potom uzme krvi te poškropi narod govoreći: “Ovo je krv Saveza koji je Jahve s vama uspostavio na temelju svih ovih riječi.”
And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant that Jehovah has made with you concerning all these words.
9 Onda se uspne Mojsije s Aronom, Nadabom i Abihuom i sa sedamdeset starješina Izraelovih.
Then Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up.
10 Oni vidješe Boga Izraelova: podnožje njegovim nogama kao da je bilo od dragoga kamena safira, sjajem nalik na samo nebo.
And they saw the God of Israel. And there was under his feet as it were a paved work of sapphire stone, and as it were the very heaven for clearness.
11 Ni ruke svoje nije pružio na izabranike Izraelaca: slobodno su Boga motrili i jeli i pili.
And he laid not his hand upon the nobles of the sons of Israel. And they beheld God, and ate and drank.
12 Onda Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Popni se k meni na brdo i pričekaj ondje. Dat ću ti kamene ploče sa zakonom i zapovijedima koje sam za njihovu pouku napisao.”
And Jehovah said to Moses, Come up to me onto the mount, and be there, and I will give thee the tablets of stone, and the law and the commandment, which I have written, that thou may teach them.
13 Ustane Mojsije i njegov pomoćnik Jošua te se Mojsije popne na brdo Božje.
And Moses rose up, and Joshua his minister, and Moses went up onto the mount of God.
14 A starješinama reče: “Čekajte nas ovdje dok se ne vratimo. Eto je s vama Aron i Hur. Tko imadne kakvu razmiricu, neka se obrati na njih.”
And he said to the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again to you. And, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you; whoever has a case, let him come near to them.
15 Zatim Mojsije uzađe na brdo, a onda oblak prekri brdo.
And Moses went up onto the mount, and the cloud covered the mount.
16 Slava se Jahvina nastani na Sinajskom brdu i oblak ga obavijaše šest dana. Sedmoga dana zovne Jahve Mojsija isred oblaka.
And the glory of Jehovah abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. And the seventh day he called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
17 Slava Jahvina na vrhuncu brda bijaše očima Izraelaca kao vatra koja sažiže. Mojsije zađe u oblak i uspne se na brdo.
And the appearance of the glory of Jehovah was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the sons of Israel.
18 Četrdeset dana i četrdeset noći boravio je Mojsije na brdu.
And Moses entered into the midst of the cloud, and went up onto the mount. And Moses was on the mount forty days and forty nights.
