Exodus 34
1 And after this he said: “Cut out for yourself two tablets of stone similar to the first ones, and I will write upon them the words which were held on the tablets that you broke.
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis, “Wapụta mbadamba nkume abụọ dịka nke mbụ, aga m edekwasị nʼelu ha okwu niile nke dị nʼelu mbadamba nkume ndị mbụ ahụ, bụ nke ị tụpịasịrị.
2 Be prepared in the morning, so that you may immediately ascend onto Mount Sinai, and you shall stand with me on the summit of the mountain.
Jikere nʼụtụtụ, rigoro ugwu Saịnaị ka i chee onwe gị nʼihu m nʼelu ugwu ahụ.
3 Let no one ascend with you, and do not let anyone be seen throughout the entire mountain. Likewise, do not let the oxen or the sheep pasture up against it.”
Onye ọbụla esokwala gị, ma ọ bụkwanụ nọdụ nso ugwu ahụ. Ekwekwala ka igwe ehi maọbụ igwe atụrụ kpaa nri nso nso ugwu ahụ.”
4 And so he cut out two tablets of stone, like those that were before. And rising up in the night, he ascended onto Mount Sinai, just as the Lord had instructed him, carrying with him the tablets.
Mosis biliri nʼisi ụtụtụ, waa mbadamba nkume abụọ dịka ndị nke mbụ, rigoro ugwu Saịnaị dịka Onyenwe anyị gwara ya. Ọ jikwa nkume abụọ ahụ nʼaka ya.
5 And when the Lord had descended in a cloud, Moses stood with him, calling upon the name of the Lord.
Nʼoge ahụ, Onyenwe anyị rịdatara nʼime ogidi igwe ojii, guzo nʼihu Mosis, kwupụta aha ya bụ Onyenwe anyị.
6 And as he was crossing before him, he said: “The Ruler, the Lord God, merciful and lenient, patient and full of compassion and also truthful,
O si nʼihu Mosis gafee na-ekwu na-asị, “Onyenwe anyị, Onyenwe anyị, Chineke ọmịiko na onye amara, onye na-adịghị ewe iwe ọsịịsọ, na onye babigara ụba oke nʼịhụnanya na ikwesi ntụkwasị obi.
7 who preserves mercy a thousand fold, who takes away iniquity, and wickedness, and also sin; and with you no one, in and of himself, is innocent. You render the iniquity of the fathers to the sons, and also to their descendants to the third and fourth generation.”
Onye na-egosi ịhụnanya ya nye imerime puku, ma na-agbaghara ajọ omume na nnupu isi, na mmehie. Ma ọ dịghị ahapụ ka onye ikpe mara laa na-anataghị ahụhụ, ọ na-ata ụmụ na ụmụ ụmụ ha ahụhụ nʼihi mmehie nna nna ha ruo nʼọgbọ nke atọ na nke anọ.”
8 And hurrying, Moses bowed down prostrate to the ground; and worshiping,
Otu mgbe ahụ, Mosis hulatara kpọọ isiala,
9 he said: “If I have found grace in your sight, O Lord, I beg you to walk with us, (for the people are stiff-necked) and take away our iniquities and our sin, and so possess us.”
sị ya, “Ọ bụrụ nʼezie na m achọtala ihuọma nʼanya gị, Onyenwe m, ka Onyenwe m, biko soro anyị gaa. Ọ bụ ezie na ndị a bụ ndị isiike, gbaghara anyị ajọ omume anyị, na mmehie anyị niile, ka ị nabatakwa anyị dịka ndị nke gị.”
10 The Lord responded: “I will enter into a pact in the sight of all. I will perform signs which have never been seen on earth, nor among any nation, so that this people, in whose midst you are, may discern the terrible work of the Lord that I will do.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Mụ onwe m na gị na-agba ndụ. Nʼihu ndị gị niile, aga m arụ oke ọrụ ịtụnanya dị ukwu, ụdị nke a na-emetụbeghị mbụ nʼụwa, maọbụ na mba ọ bụla. Ndị niile unu bi nʼetiti ha ga-ahụ ọrụ Onyenwe anyị. Ọrụ ahụ dị oke egwu nke m ga-arụ nʼihi unu.
11 Observe everything that I command you this day. I myself will drive out before your face the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
Debe ihe niile m nyere gị nʼiwu taa. Aga m esite nʼihu unu chụpụ ndị Amọrait, ndị Kenan, ndị Het, ndị Periz, ndị Hiv na ndị Jebus.
12 Beware that you do not ever join in friendship with the inhabitants of that land, which may be your ruin.
Kpacharanụ anya ka unu na ndị bi nʼala ahụ unu na-aba nʼime ya ghara ịgba ndụ. Ka ha ghara ị bụ ihe ịma nʼọnya nʼetiti unu.
13 But destroy their altars, break their statues, and cut down their sacred groves.
Kama, tikpọọnụ ebe ịchụ aja ha niile. Kụrienụ ogidi arụsị ha niile. Gbutukwaanụ osisi Ashera ha jiri mere chi ha.
14 Do not be willing to worship any strange god. The jealous Lord is his name. God is a rival.
Unu efela chi ọzọ, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị, onye aha ya bụ Ekworo, bụ Chineke na-ekwo ekworo.
15 Do not enter into a pact with the men of those regions, lest, when they will have fornicated with their gods and worshiped their idols, someone might call upon you to eat from what was immolated.
“Kpacharanụ anya ka unu na ndị bi nʼala ahụ ghara ịgba ndụ, nʼihi na mgbe ha na-akwaso chi ha iko, na-achụkwa aja nye chi ha, ha ga-akpọ unu oku nri, mgbe ahụ, unu ga-eri site nʼihe aja ha.
16 Neither shall you take a wife for your son from their daughters, lest, after they themselves have fornicated, they may cause your sons also to fornicate with their gods.
Mgbe unu lụtara ụfọdụ ndị inyom ha dịka nwunye nye ụmụ unu ndị ikom, ndị inyom ndị a na-akwaso chi ha iko, ga-eme ka ụmụ unu ndị ikom soro ha nʼomume dị otu a.
17 You shall not make for yourselves any molten gods.
“Unu akpụla chi ọbụla.
18 You shall keep the solemnity of unleavened bread. For seven days, you shall eat unleavened bread, just as I instructed you, in the time of the month of what is new. For in the month of springtime you departed from Egypt.
“Na-emenụ mmemme achịcha na-ekoghị eko. Rienụ achịcha na-ekoghị eko ụbọchị asaa, dịka m nyere nʼiwu na a ga-eme nʼụbọchị ndị ahụ a họpụtara, nʼọnwa Abib, nʼihi na ọ bụ nʼọnwa ahụ ka unu si nʼala Ijipt pụta.
19 All of the male kind, which open the womb, shall be mine: from all the animals, as much of oxen as of sheep, it shall be mine.
“Nwa nwoke ọbụla e bụ ụzọ mụọ bụ nke m, tinyere ụmụ anụ ụlọ, ma ehi, ma atụrụ, ma ewu.
20 The firstborn of a donkey, you shall redeem with a sheep. But if you will not give a price for it, it shall be slain. The firstborn of your sons you shall redeem. You shall not appear empty in my sight.
E nwere ike ịgbapụta nwa oke ịnyịnya ibu site nʼiwere nwa atụrụ dochie nʼọnọdụ ya. Ọ bụrụ na i kpebie na ị gaghị agbapụta ya, mgbe ahụ, ị ga-agbaji olu ya. Ma ụmụ unu ndị ikom niile ka a ga-agbapụta. “O nweghị onye ọbụla nʼime unu ga-abịa guzo m nʼihu na-ejighị onyinye.
21 For six days you shall work. On the seventh day you shall cease to cultivate and to harvest.
“Nʼoge ịkụ ihe nʼubi na nʼoge owuwe ihe ubi, rụọnụ ọrụ naanị ụbọchị isii. Zukwanụ ike nʼụbọchị nke asaa.
22 You shall observe the Solemnity of Weeks with the first-fruits of the grain from the harvest of your wheat, and a Solemnity when the time of the year returns and everything is stored away.
“Mee Mmemme Izu Ụka asaa, bụ nke ị ga-eji mkpụrụ mbụ nke ọka wiiti mee, na Mmemme Nchịkọta Ihe nʼọgwụgwụ afọ ọbụla.
23 Three times a year, all your males shall appear in the sight of the Almighty, the Lord God of Israel.
Ugboro atọ nʼafọ ka ndị ikom unu niile ga-abịa chee onwe ha nʼihu Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị nke Izrel.
24 For when I will have taken away the nations before your face, and enlarged your borders, no one shall lie in wait against your land when you will go up to appear in the sight of the Lord your God, three times a year.
Nʼihi na aga m esite nʼihu unu chụpụ mba dị iche iche. Meekwa ka ala unu saa mbara. Ọ dịghị onye ọbụla ga-enwe anya ukwu nʼebe ala unu dị, mgbe unu na-aga iche onwe unu nʼihu Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu, ugbo atọ nʼafọ.
25 You shall not immolate the blood of my victim over leaven; and there shall not remain, in the morning, any of the victim of the Solemnity of the Passover.
“Unu etinyekwala ihe ọbụla nke nwere ihe na-eko achịcha nʼime ya, mgbe unu na-achụ ọbara nke aja nye m. Unu ahapụkwala aja sitere na Mmemme Ngabiga ka ọ nọọ ruo ụtụtụ.
26 The first of the fruits of your land you shall offer in the house of the Lord your God. You shall not boil a young goat in the milk of its mother.”
“Wetanụ mkpụrụ mbụ niile nke ala ubi unu, bụ ndị kachasị mma nʼụlọ Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke unu. “Unu esikwala nwa ewu nʼime mmiri ara nne ya.”
27 And the Lord said to Moses, “Write these words to you, through which I have formed a covenant, both with you and with Israel.”
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Dee iwu ndị a m nyere gị, nʼihi na dịka okwu ndị a si dị, ka ọgbụgba ndụ mụ na gị na ụmụ Izrel gbara si dị.”
28 Therefore, he was in that place with the Lord for forty days and forty nights; he did not eat bread and he did not drink water, and he wrote on the tablets the ten words of the covenant.
Mosis na Onyenwe anyị nọ nʼebe ahụ iri ụbọchị anọ, ehihie na abalị. Ma nʼoge ndị a niile o righị nri ọbụla. Ọ ṅụkwaghị ihe ọṅụṅụ ọbụla. O dere na mbadamba nkume abụọ ahụ okwu niile nke ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, nke bụ iwu iri ahụ.
29 And when Moses descended from Mount Sinai, he held the two tablets of the testimony, and he did not know that his face was radiant from the sharing of words with the Lord.
Mgbe Mosis ji mbadamba nkume abụọ nke ihe ama ahụ na-arịdata site nʼelu ugwu ahụ, ọ mataghị na ihu ya na-egbuke egbuke, nʼihi ọnọdụ nke ọ nọrọ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
30 Then Aaron and the sons of Israel, seeing that the face of Moses was radiant, were afraid to approach close by.
Nʼihi mgbuke ahụ ihu Mosis na-egbuke, ụjọ ekweghị Erọn na ụmụ Izrel bịaruo ya nso.
31 And being called by him, they turned back, both Aaron and the leaders of the assembly. And after he had spoken to them,
Ma Mosis kpọrọ ha ka ha bịakwute ya. Nʼihi ya, Erọn na ndị ndu nzukọ Izrel bịara ka ha na Mosis kparịtaa ụka.
32 all the sons of Israel also now came to him. And he instructed them in all the things that he had heard from the Lord on Mount Sinai.
Mgbe e mesịrị, ndị Izrel niile bịakwutere ya. O nyekwara ha iwu ndị ahụ Onyenwe anyị nyere ya nʼelu ugwu Saịnaị.
33 And having completed these words, he placed a veil over his face.
Mgbe Mosis gwachara ha okwu, o weere akwa kpuchie ihu ya.
34 But when he entered to the Lord and was speaking with him, he took it off, until he exited. And then he spoke to the sons of Israel all that had been commanded to him.
Ma mgbe ọbụla ọ na-abanye nʼihu Onyenwe anyị ka ha kparịtaa ụka nʼime ụlọ nzute ahụ, ọ na-ekepụ akwa ahụ o ji kpuchie ihu ya tutu ruo mgbe ọ nọchara pụta. Mgbe ọ pụtara, ọ na-agwa ndị Izrel ihe niile Onyenwe anyị nyere ya nʼiwu.
35 And they saw that the face of Moses, when he came out, was radiant, but he covered his face again, whenever he spoke to them.
Ha hụkwara na ihu ya na akpụkpọ ihu ya na-egbuke egbuke. Emesịa, Mosis na-ekpuchikwa ihu ya tutu ruo mgbe ọ ga-abanye nʼime ka ya na Onyenwe anyị kparịta ụka.
