Exodus 19
1 In the third month after the departure of the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt, the same day came they [into] the wilderness of Sinai:
Ke len se meet in malem se aktolu tukun mwet Israel som liki facl Egypt, elos tuku nu yen mwesis Sinai.
2 they departed from Rephidim, and came [into] the wilderness of Sinai, and encamped in the wilderness; and Israel encamped there before the mountain.
Elos som liki Rephidim, ac utyak nu yen mwesis Sinai, ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos sisken Fineol Sinai.
3 And Moses went up to God, and Jehovah called to him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
Ac Moses el fanyak nu fineol uh in osun nu sin God. LEUM GOD El pang nu sel fineol uh me, ac fahk nu sel tuh elan fahk nu sin mwet Israel, fwilin tulik natul Jacob:
4 Ye have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, and [how] I have borne you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself.
“Kowos liye ma nga, LEUM GOD, tuh oru nu sin mwet Egypt, ac ke nga tuh srukkowosyak oana sie won eagle el ac tapukak ma fusr natul fin posohksok lal, ac nga uskowosme nu yuruk.
5 And now, if ye will hearken to my voice indeed and keep my covenant, then shall ye be my own possession out of all the peoples — for all the earth is mine —
Kowos fin akosyu ac liyaung wulela luk, kowos ac fah mwet luk sifacna. Faclu nufon ma luk, tuh kowos fah mwet solla luk.
6 and ye shall be to me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak to the children of Israel.
Kowos sie mutunfacl sriyukla nu sik mukena, ac kowos fah kulansupweyu oana mwet tol. Moses, kom in fahk ma inge nu sin mwet Israel.”
7 And Moses came and called the elders of the people, and laid before them all these words which Jehovah had commanded him.
Ouinge Moses el tufokla ac pangoneni mwet kol lun mwet uh nu sie, ac fahk nu selos ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel.
8 And all the people answered together, and said, All that Jehovah has spoken will we do! And Moses brought the words of the people back to Jehovah.
Na mwet nukewa tukeni topuk, “Kut fah oru ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD El fahk,” ac Moses el fahkak ma inge nu sin LEUM GOD.
9 And Jehovah said to Moses, Lo, I will come to thee in the cloud's thick darkness, that the people may hear when I speak with thee, and believe thee also for ever. And Moses told the words of the people to Jehovah.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Nga fah tuku nu yurum ke sie pukunyeng matoltol, tuh mwet uh fah ku in lohng ke nga kaskas nu sum, ac elos fah lulalfongi kom ingela nu tok.” Moses el fahk nu sin LEUM GOD top lun mwet uh,
10 And Jehovah said to Moses, Go to the people, and hallow them to-day and to-morrow, and let them wash their clothes;
ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Fahla nu yurin mwet uh ac fahk tuh elos in akmutalyalos sifacna misenge ac lutu. Elos enenu in ohlla nuknuk lalos
11 and let them be ready for the third day; for on the third day Jehovah will come down before the eyes of all the people on mount Sinai.
ac in akola nu ke len se aktolu. Ke len sac nga fah oatui nu Fineol Sinai, acn se ma mwet nukewa ku in liyeyu we.
12 And set bounds round about the people, saying, Take heed to yourselves, [not] to go up unto the mountain nor touch the border of it: whatever toucheth the mountain shall certainly be put to death:
Akilenya sie masrol rauneak eol uh tuh mwet uh in tia alukela, ac fahk nu selos in tia fanyak nu fineol uh, ku tuku fototo nu kac. Kutena mwet fin longya eol uh, el ac fah anwuki.
13 not a hand shall touch it, but it shall certainly be stoned, or shot through; whether it be a beast or a man, it shall not live. When the long drawn note of the trumpet soundeth, they shall come up to the mountain.
Ac fah tatngal el ku pisrkiyuk el, ac in wangin poun mwet kahlilya. Ac orek ouinge nu sin kewana, mwet ac kosro — elos enenu na in anwuki. Tusruktu pacl se ukuk uh kas, na mwet uh ku in kalukyang nu ke eol uh.”
14 And Moses came down from the mountain to the people, and hallowed the people; and they washed their clothes.
Na Moses el oatume liki fineol uh, ac fahk nu sin mwet uh elos in akmutalyalos ac akola nu ke alu. Ke ma inge elos ohlla nuknuk lalos,
15 And he said to the people, Be ready for the third day; do not come near [your] wives.
ac Moses el fahk nu selos, “Kowos in akola nu ke len se aktolu, ac kowos in tia oan yurin mutan ke len tolu inge.”
16 And it came to pass on the third day, when it was morning, that there were thunders and lightnings and a heavy cloud on the mountain, and the sound of the trumpet exceeding loud; and the whole people that was in the camp trembled.
Ke lotutang in len se aktolu, oasr pulahl ac sarom, ac sie pukunyeng matoltol sikyak fineol uh, ac pusren mwe ukuk na yohk pusra lohngyuk. Mwet nukewa in nien aktuktuk uh elos rarrar ke sangeng.
17 And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they stood at the foot of the mountain.
Na Moses el pwanulosla liki nien aktuktuk selos in osun nu sin God, ac elos tu pe eol uh.
18 And the whole of mount Sinai smoked, because Jehovah descended on it in fire; and its smoke ascended as the smoke of a furnace; and the whole mountain shook greatly.
Fineol Sinai nufon nukla ke kulasr, mweyen LEUM GOD El oatui nu fac ke e. Kulasr kac fosryak oana kulasr ke funyu lulap, ac eol soko ah nufon arulana kusrusryak.
19 And the sound of the trumpet increased and became exceeding loud; Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.
Pusren mwe ukuk uh yokyokelik na. Moses el kaskas, ac God El topkol ke pulahl.
20 And Jehovah came down on mount Sinai, on the top of the mountain; and Jehovah called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
LEUM GOD El oatume nu fin mangon Fineol Sinai, ac pangnol Moses nu fin mangon eol uh. Moses el fanyak som
21 And Jehovah said to Moses, Go down, testify to the people that they break not through to Jehovah to gaze, and many of them perish.
ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Oatula ac sensenkakin mwet uh in tia alukela masrol sac in tuku liyeyu. Elos fin oru, pus selos ac misa.
22 And the priests also, who come near to Jehovah, shall hallow themselves, lest Jehovah break forth on them.
Finne mwet tol su tuku apkuran nu yuruk, elos enenu in akmutalyalos sifacna, mweyen elos fin tia, nga fah kaelos.”
23 And Moses said to Jehovah, The people cannot come up to mount Sinai; for thou hast testified to us, saying, Set bounds about the mountain, and hallow it.
Moses el fahk nu sin LEUM GOD, “Mwet uh tia ku in fanyak, mweyen kom sapkin nu sesr in akilen mutal lun eol uh, ac filiya sie masrol ah rauneak.”
24 And Jehovah said to him, Go, descend, and thou shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with thee; but the priests and the people shall not break through to go up to Jehovah, lest he break forth on them.
LEUM GOD El topuk, “Oatula ac usalu Aaron elan wi kom folok. Tusruktu mwet tol ac mwet uh fah tiana alukela masrol sac in fanyak nu yuruk. Elos fin oru, nga fah kaelos.”
25 So Moses went down to the people, and told them.
Ouinge Moses el oatula nu yurin mwet uh ac fahkang ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk nu sel.
