< Exodus 24 >

1 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Come up to the LORD—you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of Israel’s elders—and you are to worship at a distance.
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Mata epai na Yawe, yo elongo na Aron, Nadabi, Abiyu mpe bakambi tuku sambo ya Isalaele; bokogumbama na mosika.
2 Moses alone shall approach the LORD, but the others must not come near. And the people may not go up with him.”
Moyize kaka nde asengeli kopusana pene ya Yawe; kasi bato mosusu te. Lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele mpe ekomata te elongo na ye.
3 When Moses came and told the people all the words and ordinances of the LORD, they all responded with one voice: “All the words that the LORD has spoken, we will do.”
Tango Moyize akendeki koyebisa bato makambo mpe mibeko nyonso ya Yawe, bato bazongisaki elongo: — Tokosala makambo nyonso oyo Yawe alobi.
4 And Moses wrote down all the words of the LORD. Early the next morning he got up and built an altar at the base of the mountain, along with twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel.
Moyize akomaki maloba nyonso oyo Yawe ayebisaki ye. Mokolo oyo elandaki, alamukaki na tongo makasi mpe atongaki etumbelo na ebandeli ya ngomba. Bongo, atelemisaki mabanga zomi na mibale oyo ezali kotalisa mabota zomi na mibale ya Isalaele.
5 Then he sent out some young men of Israel, and they offered burnt offerings and sacrificed young bulls as peace offerings to the LORD.
Atindaki bilenge mibali ya Isalaele ete babonzela Yawe mbeka ya kotumba ya bangombe ya mibali lokola mbeka ya boyokani.
6 Moses took half of the blood and put it in bowls, and the other half he sprinkled on the altar.
Moyize azwaki ndambo ya makila, atiaki yango na sani; bongo ndambo mosusu, abwakaki-bwakaki yango na likolo ya etumbelo.
7 Then he took the Book of the Covenant and read it to the people, who replied, “All that the LORD has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient.”
Azwaki lisusu buku ya Boyokani mpe atangaki yango liboso ya bana ya Isalaele. Boye bango bazongisaki: — Tokosala makambo nyonso oyo Yawe alobi mpe tokotosa yango.
8 So Moses took the blood, sprinkled it on the people, and said, “This is the blood of the covenant that the LORD has made with you in accordance with all these words.”
Moyize azwaki makila, abwakelaki-bwakelaki yango bato mpe alobaki: — Oyo ezali makila ya boyokani oyo Yawe asali elongo na bino kolanda maloba oyo nyonso.
9 Then Moses went up with Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel,
Sima na yango, Moyize elongo na Aron, Nadabi, Abiyu mpe bakambi tuku sambo ya Isalaele, bamataki likolo ya ngomba
10 and they saw the God of Israel. Under His feet was a work like a pavement made of sapphire, as clear as the sky itself.
epai wapi bamonaki Nzambe ya Isalaele; se ya matambe na Ye ezalaki lokola mabanga ya talo ya safiri mpe ezalaki na langi ya ble ya kitoko lokola ble ya likolo.
11 But God did not lay His hand on the nobles of Israel; they saw Him, and they ate and drank.
Kasi Nzambe asembolaki loboko na Ye te mpo na kobeta bakambi ya Isalaele; bamonaki Nzambe, baliaki mpe bamelaki.
12 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Come up to Me on the mountain and stay here, so that I may give you the tablets of stone, with the law and commandments I have written for their instruction.”
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Yaka pene na Ngai na likolo ya ngomba mpe telema wana. Ngai nakopesa yo bitando ya mabanga ya papala oyo na likolo na yango nakomi Mobeko mpe mitindo mpo na kopesa bana ya Isalaele malako. »
13 So Moses set out with Joshua his attendant and went up on the mountain of God.
Boye Moyize atelemaki elongo na mosungi na ye Jozue mpe amataki na ngomba ya Nzambe.
14 And he said to the elders, “Wait here for us until we return to you. Aaron and Hur are here with you. Whoever has a dispute can go to them.”
Moyize alobaki na bakambi: « Bozela biso awa kino tokozonga. Aron mpe Wuri bazali elongo na bino. Tika ete soki moto azali na likambo, ayebisa bango yango. »
15 When Moses went up on the mountain, the cloud covered it,
Tango Moyize amataki likolo ya ngomba, mapata ezipaki ye
16 and the glory of the LORD settled on Mount Sinai. For six days the cloud covered it, and on the seventh day the LORD called to Moses from within the cloud.
mpe nkembo ya Yawe ewumelaki na likolo ya ngomba Sinai. Mikolo motoba, mapata ezipaki ngomba. Bongo na mokolo ya sambo, Yawe abengaki Moyize kati na mapata.
17 And the sight of the glory of the LORD was like a consuming fire on the mountaintop in the eyes of the Israelites.
Na miso ya bana ya Isalaele, Nkembo ya Yawe emonanaki na likolo ya ngomba lokola moto oyo etumbaka.
18 Moses entered the cloud as he went up on the mountain, and he remained on the mountain forty days and forty nights.
Tango Moyize amataki likolo ya ngomba, akotaki kati na mapata. Awumelaki kuna mikolo tuku minei mpe babutu tuku minei.
