Exodus 24
1 And to Moses he said, Go up to the Lord, you and Aaron and Nadab and Abiud, and seventy of the elders of Israel: and they shall worship the Lord from a distance.
Ele disse a Moisés: “Suba a Yahweh, você e Arão, Nadab, e Abihu, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel; e adore à distância”.
2 And Moses alone shall draw near to God; and they shall not draw near, and the people shall not come up with them.
Somente Moisés se aproximará de Iavé, mas eles não se aproximarão. O povo não subirá com ele”.
3 And Moses went in and related to the people all the words of God and the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice, saying, All the words which the Lord has spoken, we will do and be obedient.
Moisés veio e disse ao povo todas as palavras de Javé, e todas as ordenanças; e todo o povo respondeu com uma só voz, e disse: “Todas as palavras que Javé disse, nós faremos”.
4 And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and built an altar under the mountain, and [set up] twelve stones for the twelve tribes of Israel.
Moisés escreveu todas as palavras de Javé, depois levantou-se de manhã cedo e construiu um altar na base da montanha, com doze pilares para as doze tribos de Israel.
5 And he sent forth the young men of the children of Israel, and they offered whole burnt offerings, and they sacrificed young calves as a peace-offering to God.
Ele enviou jovens das crianças de Israel, que ofereceram holocaustos e sacrificaram ofertas pacíficas de gado a Iavé.
6 And Moses took half the blood and poured it into bowls, and half the blood he poured out upon the altar.
Moisés tomou metade do sangue e o colocou em bacias, e metade do sangue que aspergiu sobre o altar.
7 And he took the book of the covenant and read it in the ears of the people, and they said, All things whatever the Lord has spoken we will do and listen therein.
Ele pegou o livro do pacto e o leu na audiência do povo, e eles disseram: “Faremos tudo o que Javé disse, e seremos obedientes”.
8 And Moses took the blood and sprinkled it upon the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the Lord has made with you concerning all these words.
Moisés tomou o sangue, aspergiu-o sobre o povo e disse: “Olha, este é o sangue do pacto, que Javé fez contigo a respeito de todas estas palavras”.
9 And Moses went up, and Aaron, and Nadab and Abiud, and seventy of the elders of Israel.
Então Moisés, Arão, Nadab, Abihu, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel subiram.
10 And they saw the place where the God of Israel stood; and under his feet was as it were a work of sapphire slabs, and as it were the appearance of the firmament of heaven in its purity.
Eles viram o Deus de Israel. Sob seus pés era como uma obra pavimentada de pedra de safira, como os céus para a claridade.
11 And of the chosen ones of Israel there was not even one missing, and they appeared in the place of God, and did eat and drink.
Ele não colocou sua mão sobre os nobres dos filhos de Israel. Eles viram Deus, e comeram e beberam.
12 And the Lord said to Moses, Come up to me into the mountain, and be there; and I will give you the tables of stone, the law and the commandments, which I have written to give them laws.
Yahweh disse a Moisés: “Vem até mim na montanha, e fica aqui, e eu te darei as tábuas de pedra com a lei e os mandamentos que escrevi, para que tu as ensines”.
13 And Moses rose up and Joshua his attendant, and they went up into the mount of God.
Moisés se levantou com Josué, seu servo, e Moisés subiu à Montanha de Deus.
14 And to the elders they said, Rest there till we return to you; and behold, Aaron and Or are with you: if any man have a cause to be tried, let them go to them.
Ele disse aos anciãos: “Esperem aqui por nós, até voltarmos a vocês”. Eis que Aarão e Hur estão com vocês”. Quem estiver envolvido em uma disputa pode ir até eles”.
15 And Moses and Joshua went up to the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.
Moisés subiu na montanha, e a nuvem cobriu a montanha.
16 And the glory of God came down upon the mount Sina, and the cloud covered it six days; and the Lord called Moses on the seventh day out of the midst of the cloud.
A glória de Yahweh assentou no Monte Sinai, e a nuvem a cobriu durante seis dias. No sétimo dia ele chamou Moisés para fora do meio da nuvem.
17 And the appearance of the glory of the Lord was as burning fire on the top of the mountain, before the children of Israel.
A aparência da glória de Javé era como devorar fogo no topo da montanha aos olhos dos filhos de Israel.
18 And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and went up to the mountain, and was there in the mountain forty days and forty nights.
Moisés entrou no meio da nuvem e subiu na montanha; e Moisés estava na montanha por quarenta dias e quarenta noites.
