Exodus 34
1 And the Lord said to Moses, Hew for thyself two tables of stone, as also the first were, and come up to me to the mountain; and I will write upon the tables the words, which were on the first tables, which thou brokest.
Yahweh akamwabia Musa, “Kata mbao mbili za mawe kama zile za awali. Nitaandika kwenye hizi mbao za mawe maneno yaliyo kuwa kwenye mbao za mawe za mwanzo, mbao za mawe ulizo zivunja.
2 And be ready by the morning, and thou shalt go up to the mount Sina, and shalt stand there for me on the top of the mountain.
Kuwa tayari asubui na uje Mlima Sinai, na uje mbele zangu juu ya mlima.
3 And let no one go up with thee, nor be seen in all the mountain; and let not the sheep and oxen feed near that mountain.
Hakuna atakaye kuja nawe. Usiruhusu mtu yeyote aonekana popote kwenye mlima. Hakuna kundi la mifugo wanao ruhusiwa ata kula mbele ya mlima.”
4 And [Moses] hewed two tables of stone, as also the first were; and Moses having arisen early, went up to the mount Sina, as the Lord appointed him; and Moses took the two tables of stone.
Hivyo Musa akakata mbao mbili za mawe kama za mwanzo, na akaamka asubui mapema na kwenda juu ya Mlima Sinai, kama Yahweh alivyo muelekeza. Musa alibeba mbao za mawe mikononi mwake.
5 And the Lord descended in a cloud, and stood near him there, and called by the name of the Lord.
Yahweh akaja chini katika wingu na akasima mbele za Musa, na akatamka jina “Yahweh.”
6 And the Lord passed by before his face, and proclaimed, The Lord God, pitiful and merciful, longsuffering and very compassionate, and true,
Yahweh akapita kwake na kukiri, “Yahweh, Yahweh, Mungu ni wa rehema na wa neema, sio mwepesi wa hasira, na anadumu katika uwaminifu wa agano na uadilifu,
7 and keeping justice and mercy for thousands, taking away iniquity, and unrighteousness, and sins; and he will not clear the guilty; bringing the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and to the children's children, to the third and fourth generation.
ukishika uaminifu wa agano kwa vizazi maelfu, ukisamehe maasi, makosa, na dhambi. Lakini hamsafishi mwenye hatia. Ataleta adhabu ya dhambi za baba kwa watoto wao na watoto wa watoto wao, kwa kizazi cha tatu na hadi cha nne.”
8 And Moses hasted, and bowed to the earth and worshipped;
Musa haraka akainamisha kichwa chake kwenye ardhi na kuabudu.
9 and said, If I have found grace before thee, let my Lord go with us; for the people is stiff-necked: and thou shalt take away our sins and our iniquities, and we will be thine.
Kisha akasema, “Kama sasa nimepata upendeleo machoni pako, Bwana wangu, tafadhali nenda pamoja nasi, kwa kuwa hawa watu ni wa korofi. Samehe maasi yetu na dhambi zetu, na utuchukuwe kama urithi wako.”
10 And the Lord said to Moses, Behold, I establish a covenant for thee in the presence of all thy people; I will do glorious things, which have not been done in all the earth, or in any nation; and all the people among whom thou art shall see the works of the Lord, that they are wonderful, which I will do for thee.
Yahweh akasema, “Ona, ninakaribu kufanya agano. Mbele za watu wako, nitafanya maajabu ambayo hayajawai kufanywa duniani kote wala kwenye taifa lote. Watu wote miongoni mwako wataona matendo yangu, kwa kuwa ni kitu cha hofu ninacho fanya kwako.
11 Do thou take heed to all things whatsoever I command thee: behold, I cast out before your face the Amorite and the Chananite and the Pherezite, and the Chettite, and Evite, and Gergesite and Jebusite:
Tii amri zangu leo. Ninawaondoa mbele yako Waamori, Wakanani, Wahivi, Wahiti, Waperizi, Wahivi, na Wayebusi.
12 take heed to thyself, lest at any time thou make a covenant with the dwellers on the land, into which thou art entering, lest it be to thee a stumbling-block among you.
Kuwa mwanglifu usifanye agano na wakazi wa nchi unayo kwenda, au wata kuwa mtego kwako.
13 Ye shall destroy their altars, and break in pieces their pillars, and ye shall cut down their groves, and the graven images of their gods ye shall burn with fire.
Badala yake, lazima uvunje madhabahu zao, ponda nguzo zao za mawe, na kukata nguzo zao za Ashera.
14 For ye shall not worship strange gods, for the Lord God, a jealous name, is a jealous God;
Kwa kuwa wewe haupaswi kumuabudu mungu mwingine, maana Yahweh, ambaye jina lake ni Uwivu, ni Mungu wa uwivu.
15 lest at any time thou make a covenant with the dwellers on the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and sacrifice to their gods, and they call thee, and thou shouldest eat of their feasts,
Hivyo kuwa mwangalifu usifanye agano na wakazi wa nchi, kwa kuwa wanajifanyia ukahaba kwa miungu yao, na wanatoa dhabihu kwa miungu yao. Kisha mmoja wao ata kukaribisha na wewe utakula baadhi ya dhabihu zake,
16 and thou shouldest take of their daughters to thy sons, and thou shouldest give of thy daughters to their sons; and thy daughters should go a whoring after their gods, and thy sons should go a whoring after their gods.
na kisha utachukuwa baadhi ya mabinti zake kwa wanao, na mabinti wake watafanya ukahaba kwa miungu yao, na watafanya wanao kufanya ukahaba kwa miungu yao.
17 And thou shalt not make to thyself molten gods.
Usifanye Miungu ya chuma ya kuyayusha.
18 And thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread: seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread, as I have charged thee, at the season in the month of new [corn]; for in the month of new [corn] thou camest out from Egypt.
Laziam ushike Sherehe ya Mkate Usiotiwachachu. Kama nilivyo kuamuru, lazima ule mkate usio na hamira kwa siku saba kwa muda uliotengwa wa mwezi wa Abibu, maana nikatika mwezi wa Abibu ulitoka Misri.
19 The males [are] mine, everything that opens the womb; every first-born of oxen, and [every] first-born of sheep.
Wazaliwa wote ni mwangu, ata mzaliwa wa kwanza wa kiume wa mifugo, yote ya ng'ombe na kondoo.
20 And the first-born of an ass thou shalt redeem with a sheep, and if thou wilt not redeem it thou shalt pay a price: every first-born of thy sons shalt thou redeem: thou shalt not appear before me empty.
Lazima umnunue tena mzaliwa kwanza wa punda kwa kondoo, lakini usipo mnunua tena, kisha uivunje shingo yake. Lazima ununue tena wazaliwa wa kwanza wote wa wanao. Hakuna ata mmoja atakye kuja kwangu mikono mitupu.
21 Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: [there shall be] rest in seed-time and harvest.
Utafanya kazi kwa siku sita, lakini siku ya saba utapumzika. Ata wakati wakilimo na wa mavuno, lazima upumzike.
22 And thou shalt keep to me the feast of weeks, the beginning of wheat-harvest; and the feast of ingathering in the middle of the year.
Lazima uadhimishe Sherehe ya Majuma kwa mazao ya kwanza ya mavuno ya ngano, na lazima uadhimishe Sherehe ya Makusanyo mwisho wa mwaka.
23 Three times in the year shall every male of thine appear before the Lord the God of Israel.
Mara tatu kwa mwaka wanaume wenu wote watajitokeza kwa Bwana Yahweh, Mungu wa Israeli.
24 For when I shall have cast out the nations before thy face, and shall have enlarged thy coasts, no one shall desire thy land, whenever thou mayest go up to appear before the Lord thy God, three times in the year.
Kwa kuwa nitaondoa mataifa mbele yenu na kutanua mipika. Hakuna atakaye tamani kuwa na ardhi yenu kama yao utakapo toka mbele za Yahweh mara tatu kwa mwaka.
25 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifices with leaven, neither shall the sacrifices of the feast of the passover remain till the morning.
Hautatoa damu ya dhabihu yangu na hamira yeyote, wala nyama yeyote kutoka dhabihu za Sherehe ya Pasaka kubaki hadi asubui.
26 The first-fruits of thy land shalt thou put into the house of the Lord thy God: thou shalt not boil a lamb in his mother's milk.
Lazima ulete matunda ya kwanza yalio bora kutoka nyumbani kwako. Usimchemshe mbuzi mtoto katika maziwa ya mama yake.”
27 And the Lord said to Moses, Write these words for thyself, for on these words I have established a covenant with thee and with Israel.
Yahweh akamwabia Musa, “Andika chini haya maneno, kwa kuwa nimejiahidi haya maneno niliyo yasema, na nimefanya agano kwako na Israeli.”
28 And Moses was there before the Lord forty days, and forty nights; he did not eat bread, and he did not drink water; and he wrote upon the tables these words of the covenant, the ten sayings.
Musa alikuwa huko na Yahweh kwa siku arobaini na usiku; hakula chakula chochote wala kunywa maji yeyote. Aliandika katika mbao maneno ya agano, Amri kumi.
29 And when Moses went down from the mountain, [there were] the two tables in the hands of Moses, —as then he went down from the mountain, Moses knew not that the appearance of the skin of his face was glorified, when God spoke to him.
Musa alipo shuka chini ya Mlima Sinai na mbao mbili za agano za ushuhuda mikononi mwake, hakujua kuwa ngozi ya kuwa uso wake ulikuwa wa'ngaa akizungumza na Mungu.
30 And Aaron and all the elders of Israel saw Moses, and the appearance of the skin of his face was made glorious, and they feared to approach him.
Wakati Aruni na Waisraeli walipo muona Musa, ngozi ya uso wake ulikuwa wa ng'aa, na waliogopa kuja karibu yake.
31 And Moses called them, and Aaron and all the rulers of the synagogue turned towards him, and Moses spoke to them.
Lakini Musa aliwaita, na Aruni na viongozi wa jamii wakaja kwake. Kisha Musa akasema nao.
32 And afterwards all the children of Israel came to him, and he commanded them all things, whatsoever the Lord had commanded him in the mount of Sina.
Baada ya haya, watu wote wa Israeli wakaja kwa Musa, na akawambia amri zote Yahweh alizo mpa katika Mlima Sinai.
33 And when he ceased speaking to them, he put a veil on his face.
Musa alipo maliza kuzungumza nao, alifunika uso wake kwa kitambaa.
34 And whenever Moses went in before the Lord to speak to him, he took off the veil till he went out, and he went forth and spoke to all the children of Israel whatsoever the Lord commanded him.
Wakati Musa alipoenda mbele za Yahweh kusema naye, aliondoa kitambaa, hadi alipo toka. Alipo toka, aliwaambia Waisraeli alicho amriwa kusema.
35 And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that it was glorified; and Moses put the veil over his face, till he went in to speak with him.
Waisraeli walipo muona Musa ana'ngaa uso, alirudisha kitambaa tena usoni mpaka alipokuwa anaenda kuongea na Yahweh.
