Exodus 33
1 And Jehovah said to Moses, Depart, go up hence, thou and the people that thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt, into the land that I swore unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will I give it,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Duru ndị a i si nʼala Ijipt kpọpụta baa nʼala ahụ m kwere Ebraham, na Aịzik na Jekọb na nkwa, nʼihi na agwara m ha sị, ‘Aga m enye ụmụ ụmụ unu ala a, ka ọ bụrụ ihe nketa ha.’
2 (and I will send an angel before thee, and dispossess the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, )
Aga m ezipu Mmụọ ozi m ka ọ gaa nʼihu unu chụpụrụ unu ndị Kenan, na ndị Amọrait, na ndị Het, na ndị Periz, na ndị Hiv, na ndị Jebus.
3 into a land flowing with milk and honey; for I will not go up in the midst of thee, for thou art a stiff-necked people, — lest I consume thee on the way.
Gbago nʼala mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-eru na ya, ma agaghị m eso unu nʼije unu, nʼihi na unu bụ ndị isiike. Ọ bụrụ na m esoro unu, unu ga-anwa m ọnwụnwa, nke ga-eme ka m laa unu nʼiyi nʼụzọ.”
4 And when the people heard this evil word, they mourned; and no man put on his ornaments.
Mgbe ndị mmadụ ahụ nụrụ okwu olu ike ndị a, ha malitere iru ụjụ, ọ dịghịkwa onye ọbụla yinyere ihe ịchọ mma ya nʼahụ ha.
5 Now Jehovah had said to Moses, Say unto the children of Israel, Ye are a stiff-necked people: in one moment I will come up into the midst of thee and will consume thee. And now put off thine ornaments from thee, and I will know what I will do unto thee.
Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị agwala Mosis sị, “Gwa ụmụ Izrel, ‘Unu bụ ndị isiike. A sị na m nọ nʼetiti unu, otu ntabi anya ezuorola m ịla unu nʼiyi. Ugbu a, yipụnụ ihe ịchọ mma niile unu yi nʼahụ, aga m ekpebi ihe m ga-eme unu.’”
6 And the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments at mount Horeb.
Ya mere, ndị Izrel yipụrụ ihe ịchọ mma ha niile. Nʼugwu Horeb ka ha nọ mgbe ihe ndị a mere.
7 And Moses took the tent, and pitched it outside the camp, far from the camp, and called it the Tent of meeting. And it came to pass [that] every one who sought Jehovah went out to the tent of meeting which was outside the camp.
Nʼoge a, Mosis na-ewere ụlọ ikwu manye nʼazụ ọmụma ụlọ ikwu, ọ na-akpọ ya ụlọ nzute. Ọ na-amanye ya nʼebe dị anya site nʼebe ụmụ Izrel mara ụlọ ikwu ha. Onye ọ bụla nke chọrọ ịjụta Onyenwe anyị ase, na-apụ, gaa nʼụlọ nzute ahụ nke dị nʼazụ ọmụma ụlọ ikwu.
8 And it came to pass, when Moses went out to the tent, all the people rose up, and stood every man at the entrance of his tent, and they looked after Moses until he entered into the tent.
Mgbe ọbụla Mosis na-aga nʼụlọ ikwu nzute ahụ, ndị Izrel niile na-apụta guzoro nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ ha, na-ele ya anya tutu Mosis abanye nʼụlọ ikwu ahụ.
9 And it came to pass when Moses entered into the tent, the pillar of cloud descended, and stood at the entrance of the tent, and [Jehovah] talked with Moses.
Mgbe ọ banyere nʼụlọ ikwu ahụ; ogidi igwe ojii ahụ na-abịa guzochie nʼọnụ ụzọ mgbe Onyenwe anyị na Mosis na-akparị ụka.
10 And all the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the entrance of the tent; and all the people rose and worshipped, every man at the entrance of his tent.
Nʼoge ọbụla, ndị mmadụ hụrụ ogidi igwe ojii ahụ ka o guzo nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ ikwu nzute ahụ, ha onwe ha na-eguzokwa, onye ọbụla, nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ ikwu ha, kpọọ isiala.
11 And Jehovah spoke with Moses face to face, as a man speaks with his friend. And he returned to the camp; but his attendant, Joshua the son of Nun, a young man, departed not from within the tent.
Nʼime ụlọ nzute ahụ, Onyenwe anyị na-agwa Mosis okwu ihu na ihu, dịka mmadụ sị agwa enyi ya okwu. Mgbe ha kparịchara ụka, Mosis na-alọghachi azụ nʼebe ụmụ Izrel mara ụlọ ikwu ha. Ma nwokorobịa ahụ na-enyere ya aka, bụ Joshua, nwa Nun, na-anọgide nʼụlọ ikwu nzute ahụ.
12 And Moses said to Jehovah, Behold, thou sayest unto me, Bring up this people; but thou dost not let me know whom thou wilt send with me; and thou hast said, I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in mine eyes.
Mgbe Mosis na Onyenwe anyị nọ na-ekwurịta okwu, ihe Mosis gwara ya bụ nke a, “Ọ dịla anya kemgbe ị na-agwa m sị m, ‘Duru ndị m baa nʼala ahụ e kwere na nkwa inye ha.’ Ma matakwa na ị gwabeghị m onye ị ga-edunyere m ga-eduzi m ụzọ. I kwuola na ị maara aha m, kwukwaa na achọtala m ihuọma nʼebe ị nọ.
13 And now, if indeed I have found grace in thine eyes, make me now to know thy way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thine eyes; and consider that this nation is thy people!
Biko, ọ bụrụ na o si otu a dị, zi m ụzọ gị, nke ga-eme ka m mata gị, gaakwa nʼihu inweta ihuọma site nʼebe ị nọ. Chetakwa na mba a dị ukwu bụ ndị gị.”
14 And he said, My presence shall go, and I will give thee rest.
Ọ zara sị, “Mụ onwe m ga-eso gị gaa, aga m enyekwa gị izuike.”
15 And he said to him, If thy presence do not go, bring us not up hence.
Mgbe ahụ Mosis sịrị ya, “Ọ bụrụ na ị gaghị eso anyị nʼije a, ekwela ka anyị si nʼebe a zọpụ ụkwụ.
16 And how shall it be known then that I have found grace in thine eyes — I and thy people? [Is it] not by thy going with us? so shall we be distinguished, I and thy people, from every people that is on the face of the earth.
Ọ bụrụ na i soghị anyị, olee otu a ga-esi mata na mụ onwe m, na ndị gị achọtala ihuọma gị? Olee otu ọ ga-esi pụta ìhè na mụ na ndị gị bụ mba dị iche site na mba ndị ọzọ dị nʼụwa?”
17 And Jehovah said to Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast said; for thou hast found grace in mine eyes, and I know thee by name.
Ma Onyenwe anyị zara Mosis sị, “E, aga m eme ihe ị rịọrọ m, nʼihi na ị chọtala ihuọma m. Nʼezie, amara m onye ị bụ, marakwa aha gị.”
18 And he said, Let me, I pray thee, see thy glory.
Mgbe ahụ, Mosis rịọrọ sị, “Gosi m ebube gị.”
19 And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thy face, and I will proclaim the name of Jehovah before thee; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and I will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.
Ma Onyenwe anyị zara sị, “Aga m eme ka ị hụ ịdị mma m, aga m akọwakwara gị ihe aha m bụ Onyenwe anyị pụtara. Onye m chọrọ imere ebere ka m ga-emere ebere, ọ bụkwa onye m chọrọ imere ọmịiko ka m ga-enwere ọmịiko.
20 And he said, Thou canst not see my face; for Man shall not see me, and live.
Ma ị pụghị ịhụ ihu m nʼihi na mmadụ ọbụla enweghị ike ịhụ ihu m ma dịrịkwa ndụ.”
21 And Jehovah said, Behold, [there is] a place by me: there shalt thou stand on the rock.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Lee, e nwere ebe dị nso nʼakụkụ m, nʼelu nkume, ebe i nwere ike iguzo.
22 And it shall come to pass, when my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a cleft of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand, until I have passed by.
Mgbe ebube m ga-agafe, aga m ezo gị nʼokpuru nkume, werekwa aka m kpuchie gị, tutu ruo mgbe m gafechara.
23 And I will take away my hand, and thou shalt see me from behind; but my face shall not be seen.
Emesịa, aga m eweli aka m, ka i nwee ike ịhụ azụ m anya, ma ị pụghị ịhụ ihu m.”
