Exodus 34
1 And after this he said: Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the former, and I will write upon them the words which were in the tables, which thou brokest.
Bwana akamwambia Mose, “Chonga vibao viwili vya mawe kama vile vya kwanza, nami nitaandika juu yake maneno yale yaliyokuwa kwenye vile vibao vya kwanza, ulivyovivunja.
2 Be ready in the morning, that thou mayst forthwith go up into mount Sinai, and thou shalt stand with me upon the top of the mount.
Uwe tayari asubuhi, kisha upande juu ya Mlima Sinai. Uje mbele zangu kukutana nami huko juu ya mlima.
3 Let no man go up with thee: and let not any man be seen throughout all the mount: neither let the oxen nor the sheep feed over against it.
Mtu yeyote asije pamoja nawe, wala asionekane mtu popote juu ya mlima, wala kondoo na mbuzi au ngʼombe wasilishe karibu mbele ya huo mlima.”
4 Then he cut out two tables of stone, such as had been before: and rising very early he went up into the mount Sinai, as the Lord had commanded him, carrying with him the tables.
Kwa hiyo Mose akachonga vibao viwili vya mawe kama vile vya kwanza, naye akapanda juu ya Mlima Sinai asubuhi na mapema, kama Bwana alivyokuwa amemwagiza, akachukua vile vibao viwili vya mawe mikononi mwake.
5 And when the Lord was come down in a cloud, Moses stood with him, calling upon the name of the Lord.
Kisha Bwana akashuka katika wingu akasimama pamoja naye huko, akalitangaza jina lake, Bwana.
6 And when he passed before him, he said: O the Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, patient and of much compassion, and true,
Bwana akapita mbele ya Mose, akitangaza, “Bwana, Bwana, Mungu mwenye huruma na neema, asiye mwepesi wa hasira, mwingi wa upendo na uaminifu,
7 Who keepest mercy unto thousands: who takest away iniquity, and wickedness, and sin, and no man of himself is innocent before thee. Who renderest the iniquity of the fathers to the children, and to the grandchildren, unto the third and fourth generation.
akidumisha upendo kwa maelfu, pia akisamehe uovu, uasi na dhambi. Lakini haachi kuadhibu mwenye hatia; huwaadhibu watoto na watoto wao kwa ajili ya dhambi ya baba zao hata katika kizazi cha tatu na cha nne.”
8 And Moses making haste, bowed down prostrate unto the earth, and adoring,
Mara Mose akasujudu na kuabudu.
9 Said: If I have found grace in thy sight: O Lord, I beseech thee, that thou wilt go with us, (for it is a stiffnecked people, ) and take away our iniquities and sin, and possess us.
Mose akasema, “Ee Bwana, kama nimepata kibali mbele zako, basi Bwana uende pamoja nasi. Ingawa watu hawa ni wenye shingo ngumu, samehe uovu wetu na dhambi yetu, tuchukue kuwa urithi wako.”
10 The Lord answered: I will make a covenant in the sight of all. I will do signs such as were never seen upon the earth, nor in any nation: that this people, in the midst of whom thou art, may see the terrible work of the Lord which I will do.
Kisha Bwana akasema: “Tazama ninafanya Agano mbele ya watu wako wote. Mbele ya watu wako wote nitafanya maajabu ambayo hayajafanyika katika taifa lolote katika ulimwengu wote. Watu wale mnaoishi miongoni mwao wataona jinsi ilivyo ya kushangaza ile kazi nitakayowafanyia mimi Bwana wenu.
11 Observe all things which this day I command thee: I myself will drive out before thy face the Amorrhite, and the Chanaanite, and the Hethite, and the Pherezite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite.
Tii yale ninayokuamuru leo. Tazama nawafukuza mbele yako Waamori, Wakanaani, Wahiti, Waperizi, Wahivi na Wayebusi.
12 Beware thou never join in friendship with the inhabitants of that land, which may be thy ruin:
Uwe mwangalifu, usifanye agano na wale wanaokaa katika nchi ile unayoiendea, la sivyo watakuwa mtego katikati yako.
13 But destroy their altars, break their statues, and cut down their groves:
Bomoa madhabahu yao, vunja mawe yao ya kuabudia na ukatekate nguzo zao za Ashera.
14 Adore not any strange god. The Lord his name is Jealous, he is a jealous God.
Usiabudu mungu mwingine, kwa kuwa Bwana, ambaye jina lake ni Wivu, ni Mungu mwenye wivu.
15 Make no covenant with the men of those countries lest, when they have committed fornication with their gods, and have adored their idols, some one call thee to eat of the things sacrificed.
“Uwe mwangalifu usifanye agano na wale watu wanaoishi katika nchi, kwa maana wakati wanapojifanyia ukahaba kwa miungu yao na kuwatolea kafara, watakualika wewe nawe utakula sadaka za matambiko yao.
16 Neither shalt thou take of their daughters a wife for thy son, lest after they themselves have committed fornication, they make thy sons also to commit fornication with their gods.
Unapowachagua baadhi ya binti zao kuwa wake wa wana wenu na binti hao wakajifanyia ukahaba kwa miungu yao, watawaongoza wana wenu kufanya vivyo hivyo.
17 Thou shalt not make to thyself any molten gods.
“Usijifanyie sanamu za kusubu.
18 Thou shalt keep the feast of the unleavened bread. Seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee in the time of the month of the new corn: for in the month of the springtime thou camest out from Egypt.
“Utaadhimisha Sikukuu ya Mikate Isiyotiwa Chachu. Kwa siku saba mtakula mikate isiyotiwa chachu, kama nilivyokuamuru. Fanya hivi kwa wakati ulioamriwa, katika mwezi wa Abibu, ndio mwezi wa nne, kwa kuwa katika mwezi huo ndipo wewe ulipotoka Misri.
19 All of the male kind, that openeth the womb, shall be mine. Of all beasts, both of oxen and of sheep, it shall be mine.
“Mzaliwa wa kwanza wa kila tumbo ni mali yangu, pamoja na wazaliwa wa kwanza wote wa kiume wa mifugo yako, ikiwa ni wa ngʼombe au wa kondoo au mbuzi.
20 The firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a sheep: but if thou wilt not give a price for it, it shall be slain. The firstborn of thy sons thou shalt redeem: neither shalt thou appear before me empty.
Utakomboa mzaliwa wa kwanza wa punda kwa mwana-kondoo, lakini kama humkomboi, utavunja shingo yake. Utakomboa wazaliwa wako wa kwanza wote wa kiume. “Mtu yeyote asije mbele zangu mikono mitupu.
21 Six days shalt thou work, the seventh day thou shalt cease to plough, and to reap.
“Kwa siku sita utafanya kazi, lakini siku ya saba utapumzika, hata ikiwa ni majira ya kulima au ya kuvuna lazima upumzike.
22 Thou shalt keep the feast of weeks with the firstfruits of the corn of thy wheat harvest, and the feast when the time of the year returneth that all things are laid in.
“Utaadhimisha Sikukuu ya Majuma kwa malimbuko ya mavuno ya ngano, na Sikukuu ya Mavuno mwishoni mwa mwaka.
23 Three times in a year all thy males shall appear in the sight of the Almighty Lord the God of Israel.
Mara tatu kwa mwaka wanaume wako wote watakuja mbele za Bwana Mwenyezi, Mungu wa Israeli.
24 For when I shall have taken away the nations from thy face, and shall have enlarged thy borders, no man shall lie in wait against thy land when thou shalt go up, and appear in the sight of the Lord thy God thrice in a year.
Nitawafukuza mataifa mbele yako na kupanua mipaka ya nchi yako, wala hakuna mtu yeyote atakayeitamani nchi yako wakati unapokwenda mara tatu kila mwaka kuonana na Bwana Mungu wako.
25 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice upon leaven: neither shall there remain in the morning any thing of the victim of the solemnity of the Lord.
“Usinitolee damu ya dhabihu pamoja na kitu chochote chenye chachu, wala usibakize dhabihu yoyote ya Sikukuu ya Pasaka mpaka asubuhi.
26 The first of the fruits of thy ground thou shalt offer in the house of the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in the milk of his dam.
“Leta matunda ya kwanza yaliyo bora zaidi ya ardhi yako katika nyumba ya Bwana Mungu wako. “Usimchemshe mwana-mbuzi katika maziwa ya mama yake.”
27 And the Lord said to Moses: Write these words by which I have made a covenant both with thee and with Israel.
Kisha Bwana akamwambia Mose, “Andika maneno haya, kwa maana kulingana na maneno haya, nimefanya Agano na wewe pamoja na Israeli.”
28 And he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights: he neither ate bread nor drank water, and he wrote upon the tables the ten words of the covenant.
Mose alikuwa huko pamoja na Bwana kwa siku arobaini usiku na mchana bila kula chakula wala kunywa maji. Naye akaandika juu ya vibao maneno ya Agano, yaani zile Amri Kumi.
29 And when Moses came down from the mount Sinai, he held the two tables of the testimony, and he knew not that his face was horned from the conversation of the Lord.
Mose alipoteremka kutoka Mlima Sinai akiwa na vile vibao viwili vya Ushuhuda mikononi mwake, hakujua kuwa uso wake ulikuwa ukingʼaa, kwa sababu alikuwa amezungumza na Bwana.
30 And Aaron and the children of Israel seeing the face of Moses horned, were afraid to come near.
Aroni na Waisraeli wote walipomwona Mose, kuwa uso wake unangʼaa, waliogopa kumkaribia.
31 And being called by him, they returned, both Aaron and the rulers of the congregation. And after that he spoke to them.
Lakini Mose akawaita, kwa hiyo Aroni na viongozi wote wa jumuiya wakarudi, naye akazungumza nao.
32 And all the children of Israel came to him: and he gave them in commandment all that he had heard of the Lord in mount Sinai.
Baadaye Waisraeli wote wakamkaribia, naye akawapa amri zote Bwana alizompa katika Mlima wa Sinai.
33 And having done speaking, he put a veil upon his face.
Mose alipomaliza kuzungumza nao, akaweka utaji kwenye uso wake.
34 But when he went in to the Lord, and spoke with him, he took it away until he came forth, and then he spoke to the children of Israel all things that had been commanded him.
Lakini kila wakati Mose alipoingia mbele za Bwana kuzungumza naye, aliondoa ule utaji mpaka alipotoka nje. Naye alipotoka nje na kuwaambia Waisraeli lile ambalo ameagizwa,
35 And they saw that the face of Moses when he came out was horned, but he covered his face again, if at any time he spoke to them.
waliona kuwa uso wake unangʼaa. Kisha Mose angeliweka tena utaji juu ya uso wake mpaka alipokwenda kuzungumza na Bwana.
