Wuok 19
1 E dwe mar adek bangʼ ka jo-Israel nosewuok Misri, negichopo e thim Sinai e odiechiengʼno.
In the third month, on the same day of the month that the Israelites had left the land of Egypt, they came to the Wilderness of Sinai.
2 Bangʼ kane gisewuok Refidim, negidonjo thim Sinai, kendo Israel nojot e nyim got e thimno.
After they had set out from Rephidim, they entered the Wilderness of Sinai, and Israel camped there in front of the mountain.
3 Eka Musa noidho got mondo odhi owuo gi Nyasaye kendo Jehova Nyasaye noluonge gi ewi got mowachone kama: “Ma e gima iwachne od Jakobo to gi jo-Israel.
Then Moses went up to God, and the LORD called to him from the mountain, “This is what you are to tell the house of Jacob and explain to the sons of Israel:
4 ‘Un uwegi useneno gima ne atimone piny Misri kendo kaka ne atingʼou mana kaka ongo tingʼo nyithinde mi akelou ira awuon.
‘You have seen for yourselves what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself.
5 Koro, ka uwinja chuth mi urito singruokna, to kuom ogendini duto ubiro bedo mwanduna awuon. Kata obedo ni piny duto en mara,
Now if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, you will be My treasured possession out of all the nations—for the whole earth is Mine.
6 un to ubiro bedona oganda mar jodolo kendo oganda maler.’ Magi e weche manyaka iwachne jo-Israel.”
And unto Me you shall be a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you are to speak to the Israelites.”
7 Kuom mano Musa nodok moluongo jodongo duto mag oganda mi oketo e nyimgi weche duto mane Jehova Nyasaye ochike mondo owachi.
So Moses went back and summoned the elders of the people and set before them all these words that the LORD had commanded him.
8 Oganda duto nodwoko kanyakla kawacho niya, “Wabiro timo gik moko duto ma Jehova Nyasaye ochiko.” Kuom mano Musa nodwoko wachgi ne Jehova Nyasaye.
And all the people answered together, “We will do everything that the LORD has spoken.” So Moses brought their words back to the LORD.
9 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Abiro biro iru e boche polo mondo omi oganda owinj kaka awuoyo kodi kendo mano biro miyo giket genogi kuomi ndalo duto.” Eka Musa nonyiso Jehova Nyasaye gima oganda nowacho.
The LORD said to Moses, “Behold, I will come to you in a dense cloud, so that the people will hear when I speak with you, and they will always put their trust in you.” And Moses relayed to the LORD what the people had said.
10 Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Dhi ir oganda mondo ipwodhgi kawuono gi kiny. Ketgi giluok lepgi
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow. They must wash their clothes
11 mondo gibed moikore e odiechiengʼ mar adek, nimar chiengʼno Jehova Nyasaye biro lor ewi Got Sinai ka ji duto nene.
and be prepared by the third day, for on the third day the LORD will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.
12 Ket tongʼ ne oganda molworo got kendo nyisgi ni, ‘Beduru motangʼ mondo kik ngʼato idh got kata mulo tie got, nimar ngʼato angʼata mochopo e tiend godni to nyaka negi.
And you are to set up a boundary for the people around the mountain and tell them, ‘Be careful not to go up on the mountain or touch its base. Whoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death.
13 Ngʼatno nyaka chiel gi kite, kata chwowe gi asere; to kik ngʼato angʼata ket lwete kuome. Bed ni en dhano kata le, ok noweye mondo obed mangima.’ To ji nyalo idho godno mana ka tungʼ oywak kuom thuolo malach.”
No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot with arrows—whether man or beast, he must not live.’ Only when the ram’s horn sounds a long blast may they approach the mountain.”
14 Bangʼ ka Musa noselor e got modhi ir oganda, nopwodhogi mine gilwoko lepgi.
When Moses came down from the mountain to the people, he consecrated them, and they washed their clothes.
15 Eka nowacho ne oganda niya, “Ikreuru ne odiechiengʼ mar adek kendo kik ngʼato riwre gi chiege.”
“Be prepared for the third day,” he said to the people. “Do not draw near to a woman.”
16 Chiengʼ mar adek gokinyi, polo nomil kamor, ka boche polo okwako wi got kendo turumbete noywag matek, ma ji duto mane ni e kambi notetni.
On the third day, when morning came, there was thunder and lightning. A thick cloud was upon the mountain, and a very loud blast of the ram’s horn went out, so that all the people in the camp trembled.
17 Eka Musa notelo ne oganda kawuok e kambi mondo orom gi Nyasaye, kendo negichungʼ e tiend got.
Then Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain.
18 Iro noimo Got Sinai nikech Jehova Nyasaye nolor kanyo ei mach. Iro ne dhwolore kawuok ewi godno mana ka iro mawuok e kendo, mi got duto noyiengni,
Mount Sinai was completely enveloped in smoke, because the LORD had descended on it in fire. And the smoke rose like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked violently.
19 kendo turumbete nomedo ywak matek. Eka Musa nowuoyo kendo Nyasaye nodwoke.
And as the sound of the ram’s horn grew louder and louder, Moses spoke and God answered him in the thunder.
20 Jehova Nyasaye nolor ewi Got Sinai mi oluongo Musa nyaka ewi godno. Omiyo Musa noidho e got
The LORD descended to the top of Mount Sinai and called Moses to the summit. So Moses went up,
21 mi Jehova Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Dhiyo kendo isiem ji mondo kik girire ni gidwaro neno Jehova Nyasaye nimar thothgi nyalo tho.
and the LORD said to him, “Go down and warn the people not to break through to see the LORD, lest many of them perish.
22 Kata mana jodolo ma osudo ir Jehova Nyasaye nyaka pwodhre ka ok kamano to Jehova Nyasaye nomwomre kuomgi.”
Even the priests who approach the LORD must consecrate themselves, or the LORD will break out against them.”
23 Musa nowacho ne Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Ji ok nyal biro ewi Got Sinai nimar in iwuon ema ne isiemowa ni mondo waket kiewo molworo got mondo owale obed maler.”
But Moses said to the LORD, “The people cannot come up Mount Sinai, for You solemnly warned us, ‘Put a boundary around the mountain and set it apart as holy.’”
24 Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “Lor piny iom Harun ibigo ira. To jodolo gi ji kik rire mondo one Jehova Nyasaye, nono to abiro mwomora kuomgi.”
And the LORD replied, “Go down and bring Aaron with you. But the priests and the people must not break through to come up to the LORD, or He will break out against them.”
25 Kuom mano Musa nolor piny ir ji monyisogi gik mane Jehova Nyasaye owachone.
So Moses went down to the people and spoke to them.
