< Exodus 24 >
1 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.
E disse a Moisés: Sobe ao SENHOR, tu, e Arão, Nadabe, e Abiú, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel; e vos inclinareis desde longe.
2 And Moses alone shall come near to Jehovah, but they shall not come near, neither shall the people go up with him.
Mas Moisés somente se chegará ao SENHOR; e eles não se aproximem, nem suba com ele o povo.
3 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.
E Moisés veio e contou ao povo todas as palavras do SENHOR, e todos os estatutos: e todo o povo respondeu em uma voz, e disseram: Executaremos todas as palavras que o SENHOR disse.
4 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.
E Moisés escreveu todas as palavras do SENHOR, e levantando-se de manhã edificou um altar ao pé do monte, e doze colunas, segundo as doze tribos de Israel.
5 And he sent young men of the sons of Israel, who offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen to Jehovah.
E enviou aos rapazes dos filhos de Israel, os quais ofereceram holocaustos e sacrificaram pacíficos ao SENHOR, bezerros.
6 And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basins, and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
E Moisés tomou a metade do sangue, e a pôs em bacias, e espargiu a outra metade do sangue sobre o altar.
7 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.
E tomou o livro da aliança, e leu aos ouvidos do povo, o qual disse: Faremos todas as coisas que o SENHOR disse, e obedeceremos.
8 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.
Então Moisés tomou o sangue, e salpicou sobre o povo, e disse: Eis o sangue da aliança que o SENHOR fez convosco sobre todas estas coisas.
9 Then Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up.
E subiram Moisés e Arão, Nadabe e Abiú, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel;
10 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.
E viram ao Deus de Israel; e havia debaixo de seus pés como um pavimento de safira, semelhante ao céu quando está claro.
11 And he laid not his hand upon the nobles of the sons of Israel. And they beheld God, and ate and drank.
Mas não estendeu sua mão sobre os príncipes dos filhos de Israel: e viram a Deus, e comeram e beberam.
12 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.
Então o SENHOR disse a Moisés: Sobe a mim ao monte, e espera ali, e te darei tábuas de pedra, e a lei, e mandamentos que escrevi para ensiná-los.
13 And Moses rose up, and Joshua his minister, and Moses went up onto the mount of God.
E levantou-se Moisés, e Josué seu assistente; e Moisés subiu ao monte de Deus.
14 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.
E disse aos anciãos: Esperai-nos aqui até que voltemos a vós: e eis que Arão e Hur estão convosco: o que tiver negócios chegue-se a eles.
15 And Moses went up onto the mount, and the cloud covered the mount.
Então Moisés subiu ao monte, e uma nuvem cobriu o monte.
16 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.
E a glória do SENHOR repousou sobre o monte Sinai, e a nuvem o cobriu por seis dias: e ao sétimo dia chamou a Moisés do meio da nuvem.
17 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.
E a aparência da glória do SENHOR era como um fogo abrasador no cume do monte, aos olhos dos filhos de Israel.
18 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.
E entrou Moisés em meio da nuvem, e subiu ao monte: e esteve Moisés no monte quarenta dias e quarenta noites.
