< 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.
Ní ìgbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Gòkè tọ Olúwa wá, ìwọ àti Aaroni, Nadabu àti Abihu àti àádọ́rin àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli. Ẹ̀yin kì ó sìn ni òkèèrè réré.
2 Only Moses may approach the Lord—the others must not come near. The people may not go up the mountain with him.”
Ṣùgbọ́n Mose nìkan ṣoṣo ni yóò súnmọ́ Olúwa; àwọn tókù kò gbọdọ̀ súnmọ́ tòsí ibẹ̀. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ènìyàn kò gbọdọ̀ gòkè wá pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.”
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!”
Nígbà ti Mose lọ láti sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn, gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ àti òfin Olúwa, wọ́n wí ní ohùn kan pé, “Gbogbo ohun ti Olúwa wí ni àwa yóò ṣe.”
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.
Nígbà náà ni Mose kọ gbogbo ohun tí Olúwa sọ sílẹ̀. Ó dìde ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, ó sì mọ pẹpẹ ni ẹsẹ̀ òkè náà. Ó ṣe ọ̀wọ́n òkúta méjìlá. Èyí ti ó dúró fún àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli méjìlá.
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.
Nígbà náà ni ó rán àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin Israẹli, wọ́n sì rú ẹbọ sísun, wọ́n fi ọ̀dọ́ màlúù rú ẹbọ àlàáfíà si Olúwa.
6 Moses put half of the blood into bowls, and sprinkled the other half on the altar.
Mose bu ìlàjì ẹ̀jẹ̀ ẹran sínú abọ́, ó sì fi ìlàjì tókù wọn ara pẹpẹ.
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.”
Nígbà náà ni ó sì mú ìwé májẹ̀mú, ó sì kà á sí àwọn ènìyàn. Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Àwa yóò ṣe gbogbo ohun tí Olúwa wí. Àwa yóò sì gbọ́rọ̀.”
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.”
Nígbà náà ni Mose gbé ẹ̀jẹ̀, ó sì wọn sí àwọn ènìyàn náà lára pé, “Èyí ni ẹ̀jẹ̀ májẹ̀mú tí Olúwa ti ṣe pẹ̀lú yín ni ìbámu pẹ̀lú àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí.”
9 Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of Israel's elders climbed up the mountain,
Mose àti Aaroni, Nadabu àti Abihu àti àádọ́rin àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli gòkè lọ.
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.
Wọ́n sì rí Ọlọ́run Israẹli. Ní abẹ́ ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ ni ohun kan bí i pèpéle ti a fi òkúta safire ṣe wà. Èyí ti ó mọ́ nigínnigín bí àwọ̀ sánmọ̀ fúnra rẹ̀.
11 But God did not harm the leaders of Israel—they saw him, and they ate and drank a sacred meal.
Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run kò gbé ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sókè sí àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli wọ̀nyí; wọ́n ri Ọlọ́run, wọ́n jẹ, wọ́n sì mu.
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.”
Olúwa sì sọ fún Mose pé, “Gòkè wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi, kí o sì dúró níhìn-ín. Èmi yóò sì fún ọ ní wàláà òkúta pẹ̀lú òfin àti ìlànà tí mo ti kọ sílẹ̀ fún ìtọ́sọ́nà wọn.”
13 So Moses left with Joshua his attendant and climbed up the mountain of God.
Nígbà náà ni Mose jáde lọ pẹ̀lú Joṣua arákùnrin rẹ̀. Mose lọ sí orí òkè Ọlọ́run.
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.”
Ó sì wí fún àwọn àgbàgbà pé, “Ẹ dúró dè wá níhìn-ín yìí, títí àwa yóò fi tún padà tọ̀ yín wá, sì kíyèsi i, Aaroni àti Huri ń bẹ pẹ̀lú yín, bí ẹnìkan bá ni ọ̀ràn kan, kí ó tọ̀ wọ́n lọ.”
15 As Moses climbed up on the mountain, the cloud covered it
Nígbà tí Mose gun orí òkè lọ, ìkùùkuu bo orí òkè náà.
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.
Ògo Olúwa sì wà ní orí òkè Sinai. Ìkùùkuu bo orí òkè náà fún ọjọ́ mẹ́fà, ni ọjọ́ keje ni Olúwa kọ sí Mose láti inú ìkùùkuu náà wá.
17 To the Israelites the Lord's glory looked like a burning fire on the top of the mountain.
Ni ojú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ògo Olúwa náà dàbí iná ajónirun ni orí òkè.
18 Moses went into the cloud as he climbed up on the mountain, and he stayed on the mountain for forty days and nights.
Nígbà náà ni Mose wọ inú ìkùùkuu náà bí ó ti ń lọ ní orí òkè. Ó sì wà ni orí òkè náà ni ogójì ọ̀sán àti ogójì òru.
