< Exodus 34 >

1 And Jehovah said to Moses, Hew for thyself two tables of stone like the first; and I will write upon the tables the words that were upon the first tables, which thou hast broken.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Teekateeka ebipande bibiri eby’amayinja nga biri ebyasooka, nange nnaabiwandiikako ebigambo ebyali ku bipande ebyasooka bye wamenya.
2 And be ready for the morning, and go up in the morning to mount Sinai, and stand there before me on the top of the mountain.
Weetegeke mu makya, ojje mu makya ago olinnye waggulu ku lusozi Sinaayi, olyoke onneeyanjulire eyo ku ntikko y’olusozi.
3 And let no man go up with thee, neither shall any man be seen on all the mountain; neither shall sheep and oxen feed in front of that mountain.
Tewasaana kubaawo muntu ajja naawe, era ku lusozi wonna wonna tewasaana kulabikawo muntu n’omu; era n’amagana n’ebisibo by’endiga tebisaana kuliira mu maaso ga lusozi.”
4 And he hewed two tables of stone like the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning and went up to mount Sinai, as Jehovah had commanded him, and took in his hand the two tables of stone.
Bw’atyo Musa n’atema mu mayinja ebipande bibiri nga bifaanana nga biri ebyasooka; n’akeera mu makya n’alinnya ku lusozi Sinaayi, nga Mukama bwe yamulagira, ng’asitudde n’ebipande eby’amayinja byombi mu mikono gye.
5 And Jehovah came down in the cloud, and stood beside him there, and proclaimed the name of Jehovah.
Awo Mukama n’akkira mu kire, n’ayimirira awo ne Musa, n’alangirira erinnya lye, Mukama.
6 And Jehovah passed by before his face, and proclaimed, Jehovah, Jehovah God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in goodness and truth,
Mukama n’ayita mu maaso ga Musa n’agamba nti, “Nze Mukama, Mukama Katonda alina ekisa n’okusaasira okungi, atasunguwala mangu, ajjudde obwesigwa n’okwagala okutaggwaawo.
7 keeping mercy unto thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, but by no means clearing [the guilty]; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, upon the third and upon the fourth [generation].
Akuuma okwagala eri enkumi n’enkumi asonyiwa ebisobyo byabwe, n’obujeemu bwabwe, n’ebibi byabwe. Talema kubonereza oyo asingiddwa omusango. Abonereza abaana n’abazzukulu olw’ebisobyo bya bakadde baabwe n’ebya bajjajjaabwe, okutuukira ddala ku mulembe ogwokusatu n’ogwokuna.”
8 And Moses made haste, and bowed his head to the earth and worshipped,
Amangwago Musa n’avuunama wansi, n’asinza.
9 and said, If indeed I have found grace in thine eyes, Lord, let the Lord, I pray thee, go in our midst; for it is a stiff-necked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for an inheritance!
N’agamba nti, “Obanga kaakano nkusanyusizza, Ayi Mukama, jjangu, Mukama, ogende naffe. Newaakubadde ng’abantu bano balina ensingo nkakanyavu, naye tusonyiwe ebyonoono byaffe n’ebibi byaffe, otukkirize tubeere abantu bo ab’obusika bwo.”
10 And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels that have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people in the midst of which thou [art] shall see the work of Jehovah; for a terrible thing it shall be that I will do with thee.
Awo Mukama n’addamu nti, “Laba, nkola naawe endagaano. Nzija kukolera mu bantu bo ebyamagero ebitakolwangako mu nsi yonna, wadde mu ggwanga lyonna. Abantu bonna b’oli nabo banaalaba eby’ekitalo Mukama by’anaakolera mu ggwe.
11 Observe what I command thee this day: behold, I will drive out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
“Gondera bye nkulagira leero. Nange, gye mulaga, nzija kugobayo Abamoli, n’Abakanani, n’Abakiiti, n’Abaperezi, n’Abakiivi, n’Abayebusi.
12 Take heed to thyself, that thou make no covenant with the inhabitants of the land to which thou shalt come, lest it be a snare in the midst of thee;
Kirungi weekuume oleme kukola ndagaano n’abatuuze ab’omu nsi gy’olagamu, kubanga bayinza okubafuukira omutego.
13 but ye shall demolish their altars, shatter their statues, and hew down their Asherahs.
Olimenyaamenya ebyoto byabwe, obetente empagi zaabwe, n’otemaatema ebifaananyi byabwe ebibajje bye basinza.
14 For thou shalt worship no other God; for Jehovah — Jealous is his name — is a jealous God;
Tosinzanga katonda mulala yenna, kubanga Nze Mukama, ayitibwa Waabuggya, ndi Katonda wa buggya.
15 lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and then, when they go a whoring after their gods, and sacrifice unto their gods, thou be invited, and eat of their sacrifice,
“Temukolanga ndagaano ey’okukolagana n’abatuuze b’omu nsi omwo. Kubanga bwe baliba bagoberera bakatonda baabwe, nga bawaayo ssaddaaka, gamba omu ku bo n’abayita, mulirya ku biweebwayo byabwe ebyo.
16 and thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods.
Era bwe muliwasiza batabani bammwe abamu ku bawala baabwe, abawala abo ne bagoberera bakatonda baabwe, balireetera batabani bammwe nabo okukola bwe batyo.
17 — Thou shalt make thyself no molten gods.
“Temwekoleranga bakatonda mu byuma ebisaanuuse.
18 — The feast of the unleavened bread shalt thou keep: seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread, as I have commanded thee, at the appointed time of the month Abib; for in the month Abib thou camest out from Egypt.
“Embaga ey’Emigaati Egitali Mizimbulukuse ogikwatanga. Munaamalanga ennaku musanvu nga mulya emigaati egitali mizimbulukuse, mu kiseera ekyategekebwa mu mwezi gwa Abibu nga bwe nabalagira; kubanga mu mwezi gwa Abibu mwe mwaviira mu Misiri.
19 — All that openeth the womb [is] mine; and all the cattle that is born a male, the firstling of ox and sheep.
“Ebiggulanda byonna byange, n’ennume zonna mu magana go embereberye, oba nte oba ndiga.
20 But the firstling of an ass thou shalt ransom with a lamb; and if thou ransom [it] not, then shalt thou break its neck. All the first-born of thy sons thou shalt ransom; and none shall appear before me empty.
Endogoyi embereberye onoozinunulanga n’endiga, naye nga toginunudde ogimenyanga ensingo n’ogitta. Abaana bo abaggulanda bonna obanunulanga. Era tewabanga ajja gye ndi engalo ensa.
21 — Six days shalt thou work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest; in ploughing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.
“Onookolanga okumala ennaku mukaaga, naye ku lunaku olw’omusanvu n’owummula; ne mu biseera eby’okukabala n’ebyokukungula onoowummulanga.
22 — And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the first-fruits of wheat-harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the turn of the year.
“Onookwatanga Embaga eya Wiiki, n’Embaga ey’Amakungula g’Ebibala Ebibereberye eby’Eŋŋaano, n’Embaga ey’Okuyingiza Amakungula ku nkomerero y’omwaka.
23 Thrice in the year shall all thy males appear before the Lord Jehovah, the God of Israel.
Abasajja bonna mu mmwe banaalabikanga awali Mukama Katonda, Katonda wa Isirayiri, emirundi esatu mu buli mwaka.
24 For I will dispossess the nations before thee, and enlarge thy border, and no man shall desire thy land, when thou goest up to appear before the face of Jehovah thy God thrice in the year.
Amawanga ŋŋenda kugagobawo wonna we muli, era ndigaziya n’ensalo zammwe. So tewalibaawo ayagala kutwala nsi yammwe nga mwambuse okulabika awali Mukama Katonda wammwe emirundi egyo esatu mu mwaka.
25 — Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left over night until the morning.
“Temuwangayo kintu kyonna gye ndi ekirimu ekizimbulukusa nga mundeetedde ssaddaaka erimu omusaayi; era ennyama ya ssaddaaka ey’Embaga y’Okuyitako tesigalangawo kutuusa nkeera.
26 — The first of the first-fruits of thy land shalt thou bring into the house of Jehovah thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in its mother's milk.
“Ebibala ebisinga obulungi mu ebyo ebisoose okuva mu ttaka lyo obitwalanga mu nnyumba ya Mukama Katonda wo. “Omwana gw’embuzi togufumbiranga mu mata ga nnyina waagwo.”
27 And Jehovah said to Moses, Write thee these words; for after the tenor of these words have I made a covenant with thee and with Israel.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Wandiika ebigambo ebyo; kubanga nkoze endagaano naawe era ne Isirayiri ng’ebigambo ebyo bwe bigamba.”
28 — And he was there with Jehovah forty days and forty nights; he ate no bread, and drank no water. — And he wrote on the tables the words of the covenant, the ten words.
Musa n’abeera eyo ne Mukama, n’amalayo emisana amakumi ana n’ebiro amakumi ana, nga talya mmere wadde okunywa amazzi. N’awandiika ku bipande ebigambo eby’Endagaano, ge Mateeka Ekkumi.
29 And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai — and the two tables of testimony were in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mountain — that Moses knew not that the skin of his face shone through his talking with him.
Musa bwe yaserengeta okuva ku lusozi Sinaayi ng’akutte mu ngalo ze ebipande byombi eby’Endagaano, teyakimanya ng’obwenyi bwe bwali bumasamasa kubanga yali ayogedde ne Mukama.
30 And Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, and behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come near him.
Era Alooni n’abaana ba Isirayiri bonna bwe baatunula ku Musa, ne balaba ng’obwenyi bwe bumasamasa; ne batya okumusemberera.
31 And Moses called to them; and they turned to him, — Aaron and all the principal men of the assembly; and Moses talked with them.
Naye Musa n’abayita; bw’atyo Alooni n’abakulembeze b’abantu ne bajja gy’ali, Musa n’ayogera nabo.
32 And afterwards, all the children of Israel came near; and he gave them in commandment all that Jehovah had spoken with him on mount Sinai.
Oluvannyuma abaana ba Isirayiri bonna ne basembera, n’abategeeza amateeka gonna Mukama ge yamulagira ku lusozi Sinaayi.
33 And Moses ended speaking with them; and he had put on his face a veil.
Awo Musa bwe yamala okwogera nabo, n’abikka obwenyi bwe olugoye.
34 And when Moses went in before Jehovah to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out, and spoke to the children of Israel what he was commanded.
Naye Musa bwe yabanga agenda awali Mukama okwogera naye, ng’olugoye olubikka obwenyi bwe alwebikkula okutuusa lwe yavangayo. Bwe yakomangawo okutegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri Mukama by’amulagidde,
35 And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone; and Moses put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with him.
baalabanga obwenyi bwe nga bumasamasa. Bw’atyo Musa ne yezzaako olugoye olubikka obwenyi bwe, okutuusa lwe yaddangayo eri Mukama okwogera naye.
