< Exodus 24 >
1 He also said to Moses: “Ascend to the Lord, you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy elders out of Israel, and adore from a distance.
At kaniyang sinabi kay Moises, Sumampa ka sa kinaroroonan ng Panginoon, ikaw, at si Aaron, si Nadab, at si Abiu, at pitong pu ng mga matanda sa Israel; at sumamba kayo mula sa malayo:
2 And only Moses will ascend to the Lord, and these shall not approach. Neither shall the people ascend with him.”
At si Moises lamang ang lalapit sa Panginoon; datapuwa't sila'y hindi lalapit; o ang bayan man ay sasampang kasama niya.
3 Therefore, Moses went and explained to the people all the words of the Lord, as well as the judgments. And all the people responded with one voice: “We will do all the words of the Lord, which he has spoken.”
At lumapit si Moises at isinaysay sa bayan ang lahat ng mga salita ng Panginoon, at ang lahat ng mga palatuntunan. At ang buong bayan ay sumagot ng paminsan, at nagsabi, Lahat ng mga salita na sinalita ng Panginoon, ay aming gagawin.
4 Then Moses wrote all the words of the Lord. And rising up in the morning, he built an altar at the base of the mountain, with twelve titles according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
At sinulat ni Moises ang lahat ng mga salita ng Panginoon, at bumangon ng maaga sa kinaumagahan, at nagtayo ng isang dambana sa paanan ng bundok, at ng labing dalawang batong pinakaalaala, ayon sa labing dalawang lipi ng Israel.
5 And he sent youths from the sons of Israel, and they offered holocausts, and they immolated calves as peace-offerings to the Lord.
At kaniyang sinugo ang mga binata ng mga anak ni Israel, na nagsipaghandog ng mga handog na susunugin at nagsipaghain sa Panginoon ng handog na baka tungkol sa kapayapaan.
6 And so Moses took one half part of the blood, and he put it into bowls. Then the remaining part he poured over the altar.
At kinuha ni Moises ang kalahati ng dugo, at inilagay sa mga tasa; at ang kalahati ng dugo ay iniwisik sa ibabaw ng dambana.
7 And taking up the book of the covenant, he read it in the hearing of the people, who said: “All that the Lord has spoken, we will do, and we will be obedient.”
At kaniyang kinuha ang aklat ng tipan, at binasa sa pakinig ng bayan: at kanilang sinabi, Lahat ng sinalita ng Panginoon ay aming gagawin, at kami ay magmamasunurin.
8 In truth, taking up the blood, he sprinkled it on the people, and he said, “This is the blood of the covenant, which the Lord has formed with you concerning all these words.”
At kinuha ni Moises ang dugo at iniwisik sa bayan, at sinabi, Narito ang dugo ng tipan, na ipinakipagtipan ng Panginoon sa inyo tungkol sa lahat ng mga salitang ito.
9 And Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel ascended.
Nang magkagayo'y sumampa si Moises, at si Aaron, si Nadab, at si Abiu, at pitongpu ng mga matanda sa Israel:
10 And they saw the God of Israel. And under his feet was something like a work of sapphire stone, or like the sky, when it is serene.
At kanilang nakita ang Dios ng Israel; at mayroon sa ilalim ng kaniyang mga paa na parang isang yaring lapag na batong zafiro, at paris din ng langit sa kaliwanagan.
11 Neither did he lay his hand upon those of the sons of Israel who were at a distance. And they saw God, and they ate and drank.
At sa mga mahal na tao sa mga anak ni Israel ay hindi niya ipinatong ang kaniyang kamay: at sila'y tumingin sa Dios, at kumain at uminom.
12 Then the Lord said to Moses: “Ascend to me on the mountain, and be there. And I will give to you tablets of stone, and the law and the commandments that I have written. So may you teach them.”
At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, Sampahin mo ako sa bundok, at dumoon ka: at ikaw ay bibigyan ko ng mga tapyas na bato, at ng kautusan, at ng utos na aking isinulat, upang iyong maituro sa kanila.
13 Moses rose up, with Joshua his minister. And Moses, ascending on the mountain of God,
At tumindig si Moises, at si Josue na kaniyang tagapangasiwa: at si Moises ay sumampa sa bundok ng Dios.
14 said to the elders: “Wait here, until we return to you. You have Aaron and Hur with you. If any question arises, you shall refer it to them.”
At kaniyang sinabi sa mga matanda, Hintayin ninyo kami rito hanggang sa kami ay bumalik sa inyo: at, narito si Aaron at si Hur ay kasama ninyo: sinomang magkaroon ng usap ay lumapit sa kanila.
15 And when Moses had ascended, a cloud covered the mountain.
At sumampa si Moises sa bundok at tinakpan ng ulap ang bundok.
16 And the glory of the Lord dwelt upon Sinai, covering it with a cloud for six days. And on the seventh day, he called to him from the middle of the mist.
At ang kaluwalhatian ng Panginoon ay nanahan sa ibabaw ng bundok ng Sinai, at tinakpan ng ulap na anim na araw: at sa ikapitong araw ay tinawag niya si Moises sa gitna ng ulap.
17 Now the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a burning fire over the summit of the mountain in the sight of the sons of Israel.
At ang anyo ng kaluwalhatian ng Panginoon ay paris ng apoy na manunupok sa ibabaw ng taluktok ng bundok, sa harap ng mga mata ng mga anak ni Israel.
18 And Moses, entering into the midst of the cloud, ascended the mountain. And he was there for forty days and forty nights.
At pumasok si Moises sa gitna ng ulap, at sumampa sa bundok: at si Moises ay natira sa bundok na apat na pung araw at apat na pung gabi.
