Exodus 24
1 The Lord told Moses, “Come up to the Lord—you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of Israel's elders. You are to worship at a distance.
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Mata epai na Yawe, yo elongo na Aron, Nadabi, Abiyu mpe bakambi tuku sambo ya Isalaele; bokogumbama na mosika.
2 Only Moses may approach the Lord—the others must not come near. The people may not go up the mountain with him.”
Moyize kaka nde asengeli kopusana pene ya Yawe; kasi bato mosusu te. Lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele mpe ekomata te elongo na ye.
3 Moses went and told the people all the Lord's instructions and regulations. They all responded together: “We will do everything the Lord says!”
Tango Moyize akendeki koyebisa bato makambo mpe mibeko nyonso ya Yawe, bato bazongisaki elongo: — Tokosala makambo nyonso oyo Yawe alobi.
4 Moses wrote down everything the Lord had said. He got up early the following morning and built an altar at the bottom of the mountain, and set up twelve pillars for each of the twelve tribes of Israel.
Moyize akomaki maloba nyonso oyo Yawe ayebisaki ye. Mokolo oyo elandaki, alamukaki na tongo makasi mpe atongaki etumbelo na ebandeli ya ngomba. Bongo, atelemisaki mabanga zomi na mibale oyo ezali kotalisa mabota zomi na mibale ya Isalaele.
5 Then he sent out some young Israelite men who went and offered burnt offerings and sacrificed young bulls as peace offerings to the Lord.
Atindaki bilenge mibali ya Isalaele ete babonzela Yawe mbeka ya kotumba ya bangombe ya mibali lokola mbeka ya boyokani.
6 Moses put half of the blood into bowls, and sprinkled the other half on the altar.
Moyize azwaki ndambo ya makila, atiaki yango na sani; bongo ndambo mosusu, abwakaki-bwakaki yango na likolo ya etumbelo.
7 Then he picked up the Book of the Agreement and read it to the people. They replied, “We will do everything the Lord says. We will obey.”
Azwaki lisusu buku ya Boyokani mpe atangaki yango liboso ya bana ya Isalaele. Boye bango bazongisaki: — Tokosala makambo nyonso oyo Yawe alobi mpe tokotosa yango.
8 So Moses took the blood, sprinkled it on the people, and said, “Look, this is the blood of the agreement that the Lord has made with you following these terms.”
Moyize azwaki makila, abwakelaki-bwakelaki yango bato mpe alobaki: — Oyo ezali makila ya boyokani oyo Yawe asali elongo na bino kolanda maloba oyo nyonso.
9 Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of Israel's elders climbed up the mountain,
Sima na yango, Moyize elongo na Aron, Nadabi, Abiyu mpe bakambi tuku sambo ya Isalaele, bamataki likolo ya ngomba
10 and they saw the God of Israel. Under his feet was something like a tiled pavement made of lapis lazuli, as clear blue as the sky itself.
epai wapi bamonaki Nzambe ya Isalaele; se ya matambe na Ye ezalaki lokola mabanga ya talo ya safiri mpe ezalaki na langi ya ble ya kitoko lokola ble ya likolo.
11 But God did not harm the leaders of Israel—they saw him, and they ate and drank a sacred meal.
Kasi Nzambe asembolaki loboko na Ye te mpo na kobeta bakambi ya Isalaele; bamonaki Nzambe, baliaki mpe bamelaki.
12 Then the Lord told Moses, “Come up the mountain to me, and stay here, so I can give you the stone tablets, with the instructions and commands I have written for them to learn.”
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Yaka pene na Ngai na likolo ya ngomba mpe telema wana. Ngai nakopesa yo bitando ya mabanga ya papala oyo na likolo na yango nakomi Mobeko mpe mitindo mpo na kopesa bana ya Isalaele malako. »
13 So Moses left with Joshua his attendant and climbed up the mountain of God.
Boye Moyize atelemaki elongo na mosungi na ye Jozue mpe amataki na ngomba ya Nzambe.
14 He told the elders, “Stay here and wait for us to return. Aaron and Hur are with you. If anyone has a problem, they can talk with them.”
Moyize alobaki na bakambi: « Bozela biso awa kino tokozonga. Aron mpe Wuri bazali elongo na bino. Tika ete soki moto azali na likambo, ayebisa bango yango. »
15 As Moses climbed up on the mountain, the cloud covered it
Tango Moyize amataki likolo ya ngomba, mapata ezipaki ye
16 The Lord's glory came down on Mount Sinai, covering it for six days. On the seventh day the Lord called to Moses from inside the cloud.
mpe nkembo ya Yawe ewumelaki na likolo ya ngomba Sinai. Mikolo motoba, mapata ezipaki ngomba. Bongo na mokolo ya sambo, Yawe abengaki Moyize kati na mapata.
17 To the Israelites the Lord's glory looked like a burning fire on the top of the mountain.
Na miso ya bana ya Isalaele, Nkembo ya Yawe emonanaki na likolo ya ngomba lokola moto oyo etumbaka.
18 Moses went into the cloud as he climbed up on the mountain, and he stayed on the mountain for forty days and nights.
Tango Moyize amataki likolo ya ngomba, akotaki kati na mapata. Awumelaki kuna mikolo tuku minei mpe babutu tuku minei.
