Exodus 32
1 When the people realized how long Moses was taking before he came back down the mountain, they went together to see Aaron. They told him, “Get up! Make some gods for us who can lead us because this man Moses who brought us out of the land of Egypt—we don't know what's happened to him!”
Mosi teh mon hoi kum laipalah ngailawi ao toe tie tamimaya ni a panue awh toteh, tamimaya teh Aron koe a kamkhueng awh teh ahni koe thaw haw, kai mouh han lah na kahrawikung cathut sak haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Izip ram hoi na katâcawtkhaikung Mosi e bang pawlawk hai thai hoeh toe, telah ati awh.
2 “Bring to me the gold earrings that your wives, sons, and daughters are wearing,” Aaron replied.
Aron ni, na yunaw hoi na capanaw hoi na canunaw a pacap awh e suihnapacap hah rading awh nateh kai koe thokhai awh atipouh.
3 So everyone took off the gold earrings they were wearing and brought them to Aaron.
Hottelah tami pueng ni suihnapacap a pacap awh lahun e hah a rading awh teh Aron koe a thokhai awh.
4 He took what they gave him and using a molding tool cast an idol in the shape of a bull calf. They shouted out, “Israel, these are the gods that brought you out of the land of Egypt.”
Aron ni ahnimouh koe e a la teh, hreca hoi a thuk teh, maitoca meikaphawk lah a hlun. Hahoi ahnimouh ni Oe Isarelnaw, hetteh Izip ram hoi na katâcawtkhaikung nangmae cathut doeh, telah ati awh.
5 When Aaron saw this, he built an altar in front of the golden calf and shouted out, “Tomorrow will be a festival to honor the Lord!”
Aron ni a hmu toteh, a hmalah khoungroe hah a sak. Aron ni, tangtho vah BAWIPA hanlah pawi awm naseh telah a oung sak.
6 Early the next day they sacrificed burnt offerings and presented peace offerings. Then they sat down to celebrate with eating and drinking. Then they got up to dance, and it became like an orgy.
Hottelah a tangtho vah, amom a thaw awh. Hmaisawi thuengnae a poe awh, roum thuengnae hah a poe awh teh, tamimaya teh canei hanelah a tahung awh teh lamtu hanlah a thaw awh,
7 Then the Lord told Moses, “Get back down, because your people that you brought out of Egypt are acting immorally.
BAWIPA ni Mosi a pato teh, kum leih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, na taminaw Izip ram hoi na tâcokhai e naw hah amamouh hoi amamouh koung a kâraphoe awh toe.
8 They have been so quick to abandon the way I ordered them to follow. They have made a metal bull calf idol for themselves, bowing before it in worship and offering sacrifices to it. They're saying, ‘These are the gods that brought you out of the land of Egypt.’”
Kaie kâpoelawk hah tang a phen takhai awh toe. Maitoca meikaphawk a sak awh teh a bawk awh teh, hot koe thuengnae a sak awh teh, Oe Isarel hetheh Izip ram hoi na katâcawtkhaikung doeh ati awh telah ati.
9 “I know what these people are like,” the Lord continued saying to Moses. “They are so rebellious!
BAWIPA ni Mosi koe hete taminaw hah ka khet toe, a lung ka patak poung e miphun doeh.
10 Now leave me! I am angry with them—let me finish them off! I will make you into a great nation.”
Hatdawkvah, ahnimouh hmai koung sawi hanelah, ahnimouh lathueng ka lungkhueknae heh kaman naseh, nang heh ka lentoe e miphun lah na sak han telah ati.
11 But Moses pleaded with the Lord his God, saying, “Why are you angry with the people you brought out of the land of Egypt with tremendous power and great strength?
Mosi ni, BAWIPA Cathut koe, BAWIPA bangkongmaw kalen e thaonae hoi thaonae kut hoi Izip ram hoi na tâcosak e na taminaw lathueng vah na lungkhueknae teh a kaman.
12 Why should the Egyptians be able to say, ‘He brought them out with the evil purpose of killing them in the mountains, wiping them off the face of the earth’? Turn from your fierce anger. Please change your mind over the threat against your people.
Bangkongmaw Izipnaw ni monsom vah patawnae poe hane hoi, thei hanelah a tâcokhai awh, telah a dei awh han. Puenghoi na lungkhueknae hah roum sak nateh, na taminaw lathueng vah, hawihoehnae sak han na noe e heh kâhno lawih.
13 Remember you swore a promise your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, telling them, ‘I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven, and give you all the land I promised to them, and they shall own it forever.’”
Na san Abraham hoi Isak hoi Isarel koevah kalvan e âsinaw yit touh na catounnaw ka pung sak vaiteh, ka dei tangcoung ram heh na catoun ka poe vaiteh, a yungyoe a coe awh han, telah amahoima noe lahoi lawk na kam tangcoung e hah pahnim hanh lah a telah a kâhei.
14 The Lord changed his mind over the disaster he threatened to cause his people.
Hot patetlah BAWIPA teh, a taminaw lathueng vah thoenae ka sak han ati nakoehoi a kâhno.
15 Moses turned and went down the mountain, carrying the two stone tablets of the Law written on both sides.
Mosi teh a kamlang teh monsom hoi a kum teh, a kut dawk lawkpanuesaknae lungphen kahni touh ao. Lungphen teh avoivang lah thut e doeh.
16 God had made the tablets, and God had engraved the writing himself.
Lungphen teh Cathut ni sak e lah ao teh, thut e naw teh Cathut ma roeroe ni lungphen dawk thut e doeh.
17 When Joshua heard all the shouting from the camp, he said to Moses, “It sounds like fighting in the camp!”
Hahoi Joshua ni tamimaya pawlawk a thai toteh, Mosi koevah, roenae hmuen koe kâtuknae ao nahoehmaw telah ati.
18 But Moses replied, “These are not the shouts of victory or of defeat. What I'm hearing is people partying!”
Hatei, ahni ni tânae pawlawk nahoeh, tâ e naw e hramki lawk hai nahoeh. Hateiteh, ka thai e heh la sak pawlawk doeh ati.
19 As he approached the camp he saw the bull calf idol and the dancing. He got so angry that he threw down the stone tablets and smashed them there at the foot of the mountain.
Hahoi, roenae teng a pha tahma hoi maitoca meikaphawk hoi kalamtunaw hah a hmu. Hottelah Mosi lungkhueknae teh a kaman teh lungphen a sin e hah a tâkhawng teh mon khok koe a kâbawng.
20 He took the bull calf and burned it, and ground it into powder. Then he mixed this with water and made the Israelites drink it.
A sak awh e maitoca hah a la teh, hmai a phum teh vitkatip lah a phom. Tui dawk a phuen teh Isarelnaw hah a nei sak.
21 Then Moses asked Aaron, “What did these people do to you that you made them sin so badly?”
Mosi ni Aron koevah, hettelah totouh yonnae kalen hah ahnimouh lathueng pha sak hanelah, hetnaw ni nang lathueng bangmaw a sak awh, telah atipouh.
22 “Please don't get angry with me, my lord,” Aaron replied, “You yourself know how liable these people are to do evil.
Aron ni ka bawipa lungkhueknae heh kaman payon hanh naseh. Hete tamimayanaw heh hawihoehnae koe lah pou kangvawinaw doeh tie teh na panue toe.
23 They told me, ‘Make some gods for us who can lead us because this man Moses who brought us out of the land of Egypt—we don't know what's happened to him!’
Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai koevah, kaimouh na ka hrawi hanelah cathut hah na sak pouh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Mosi Izip ram hoi na kahrawikung heh a kamthang banghai thai e lah awm hoeh toe telah ati awh.
24 So I said to them, ‘Anybody who has gold jewelry, take it off and give it to me.’ I threw the gold into the furnace and out came this bull calf.”
Kai ni ahnimouh koe, sui katawnnaw ni rading awh naseh, ka ti pouh teh na poe awh. Hmai dawk ka phum toteh hete maitoca meikaphawk heh a tâco telah ati.
25 Moses saw the people going completely wild because Aaron had let them, and that this had brought ridicule on them from their enemies.
Hahoi tamipueng khenyawn laipalah a ngai patetlah kho a sak awh tie hah a hmu teh, bangkongtetpawiteh, a tarannaw hmunae koe Aron ni khenyawn awh hoeh.
26 So he went and stood at the entrance to the camp, and shouted out, “Whoever is on the Lord's side, come and join me!” All the Levites gathered around him.
Mosi teh roenae rim longkha koe a kangdue teh, BAWIPA koelah kampang e pueng kai koe tho awh naseh, telah ati. Hattoteh Levih capanaw pueng teh ahni koe a cei awh.
27 Moses told them, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel says: Each of you strap on a sword. Then go all through the camp from one end to the other and kill your brothers, friends, and neighbors.”
Ahnimouh koe, BAWIPA Cathut ni, tami pueng ni na tahloi lat awh nateh, roenae hmuen koe kâennae longkha koehoi tâconae longkha koe totouh, na hmaunawngha thoseh, na huiko thoseh, na imri thoseh thet awh atipouh.
28 The Levites did what Moses had told them, and that day around 3,000 men were killed.
Hatdawkvah, Levih capanaw ni Mosi ni dei e patetlah a sak awh teh, hot hnin vah tami 3, 000 tabang a due awh.
29 Moses told the Levites, “Today you have dedicated yourselves to the Lord because you took action against your sons and brothers. Today you have gained a blessing for yourselves.”
Hattoteh Mosi ni, sahnin yawhawinae na poe awh nahanelah, na mahmawk BAWIPA hanelah kâhmoun awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tami pueng ni a capa hoi a hmaunawngha hah a taran toe, telah ati.
30 The following day Moses spoke to the people, saying, “You have sinned very badly. But now I will go up to the Lord. Maybe I can get him to forgive your sin.”
Hahoi, a tangtho vah Mosi ni tamimaya koevah, yonnae kalen na sak awh toe. Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA koe ka ceitakhang han. Na yonnae yontha thai han vaimoe, telah ati.
31 So Moses went back to the Lord. He said, “Please—the people have sinned very badly by making gods of gold for themselves.
Hottelah Mosi teh BAWIPA koe a ban teh, Oe hetnaw ni yonnae kalen a sak awh teh, sui cathut hah a sak awh.
32 But now, if you will, forgive their sin. Otherwise just blot me out of the scroll in which you keep your records.”
Hatei nakunghai, a yonnae hah ngaithoum pouh haw. Hatei, na ngaithoum hoehpawiteh na cauk dawk na thut e ka min hah raphoe hanelah ka kâhei atipouh.
33 But the Lord replied to Moses, “It's those who sinned against me who will be blotted out of my scroll.
BAWIPA ni Mosi koevah, kai taranlahoi yonnae ka sak e pueng teh, ka cauk dawk hoi a min ka raphoe han.
34 Now go and lead the people to the place I told you about. Look, my angel will go before you, but at the time I decide to punish, I will punish them for their sin.”
Hatdawkvah cet nateh, ka dei e hmuen koe tamimaya hah cetkhaih. Khenhaw! kaie kalvantaminaw na hmalah a cei han. Hatei, rek hanelah ka hloe awh nah hnin vah, a yonnae dawk roeroe ka rek awh han telah ati.
35 The Lord brought a plague on the people because they made Aaron make the bull calf.
Hottelah Aron ni a sak e patetlah maitoca meikaphawk a sak awh dawkvah, BAWIPA ni tamimaya teh a rek.
