< Exodus 19 >
1 In the third moneth, after the children of Israel were gone out of the lande of Egypt, the same day came they into the wildernes of Sinai.
No te toru o nga marama o te haerenga mai o nga tama a Iharaira i te whenua o Ihipa, no taua rangi ano, ka tae ratou ki te koraha o Hinai.
2 For they departed from Rephidim, and came to the desart of Sinai, and camped in the wildernesse: euen there Israel camped before the mount.
A, i to ratou haerenga atu i Repirimi, ka tae ki te koraha o Hinai, ka noho iho ratou i te koraha; a noho ana a Iharaira ki reira, ki te ritenga atu o te maunga.
3 But Moses went vp vnto God, for ye Lord had called out of the mount vnto him, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Iaakob, and tell the children of Israel,
Na ka piki a Mohi ki te Atua, a ka karanga a Ihowa ki a ia i te maunga, ka mea, Kia penei tau korero ki te whare o Hakopa, tau kauwhau hoki ki nga tama a Iharaira;
4 Ye haue seene what I did vnto the Egyptians, and how I caryed you vpon eagles wings, and haue brought you vnto me.
Kua kite koutou i nga mea i mea ai ahau ki nga Ihipiana, i taku whakawahanga hoki i a koutou i runga i nga parirau ekara, me te kawenga mai i a koutou ki ahau.
5 Now therefore if ye wil heare my voyce in deede, and keepe my couenant, then ye shalbe my chiefe treasure aboue all people, though all the earth be mine.
Heoi ki te ata whakarongo koutou ki toku reo, ki te pupuri hoki i taku kawenata, ka waiho koutou hei taonga moku, motu ke i nga iwi katoa: i ahau hoki te whenua katoa:
6 Yee shall be vnto mee also a kingdome of Priestes, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speake vnto the children of Israel.
A ka waiho koutou e ahau hei kingi, hei tohunga, hei iwi tapu hoki. Ko nga kupu enei e korero ai koe ki nga tama a Iharaira.
7 Moses then came and called for the Elders of the people, and proposed vnto them all these things, which the Lord commanded him.
Na ka haere iho a Mohi, ka karanga ia ki nga kaumatua o te iwi, a hoatu ana e ia ki to ratou aroaro enei kupu katoa i akona nei e Ihowa ki a ia.
8 And the people answered all together, and sayd, All that the Lord hath commanded, we will doe. And Moses reported the wordes of the people vnto the Lord.
Na ka pa katoa te iwi ki te whakahoki, ka mea, Ka mahia e matou nga mea katoa i korerotia mai na e Ihowa. A kawea ana e Mohi nga kupu a te iwi ki a Ihowa.
9 And the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Lo, I come vnto thee in a thicke cloude, that the people may heare, whiles I talke with thee, and that they may also beleeue thee for euer. (for Moses had tolde the wordes of the people vnto the Lord)
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Nana, ka haere atu ahau ki a koe i roto i tetahi kapua matotoru, kia rongo ai te iwi, ua korero ahau ki a koe, kia whakapono ai hoki ratou ki a koe a mua tonu atu. A korerotia ana e Mohi nga kupu a te iwi ki a Ihowa.
10 Moreouer, the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Goe to the people, and sanctifie them to day and to morow, and let them wash their clothes.
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Haere ki te iwi, ka whakatapu hoki i a ratou akuanei, apopo hoki, kia horoi hoki ratou i o ratou kakahu,
11 And let them be ready on the third day: for the thirde day the Lord will come downe in the sight of all the people vpon mount Sinai:
Kia takatu hoki mo te ra tuatoru; ta te mea hei te ra tuatoru a Ihowa haere iho ai ki te aroaro o te iwi katoa, ki runga ki Maunga Hinai.
12 And thou shalt set markes vnto the people rounde about, saying, Take heede to your selues that ye goe not vp the mount, nor touche the border of it: whosoeuer toucheth the mount, shall surely die.
A whakatakotoria e koe he rohe mo te iwi, tawhio noa, tawhio noa, ka mea atu, Kia mohio koutou kei piki ki te maunga, kei pa ranei ki tona taha: ko nga tangata katoa e pa ana ki te maunga, ina, me whakamate.
13 No hand shall touche it, but he shalbe stoned to death, or striken through with darts: whether it be beast or man, he shall not liue: when the horne bloweth long, they shall come vp into the mountaine.
Kaua te ringa e pa ki a ia, engari me aki ki te kohatu, me wero ranei ki te tao; ahakoa kararehe, ahakoa tangata, e kore e ora: ka kukume roa te tangi o te tetere, ka haere mai ai ratou ki te maunga.
14 Then Moses went downe from ye mount vnto the people, and sanctified the people, and they washed their clothes.
Na ka haere iho a Mohi i te maunga ki te iwi, ka whakatapu ia i te iwi, a horoia ana e ratou o ratou kakahu.
15 And he said vnto the people, Be ready on the third day, and come not at your wiues.
A i mea ia ki te iwi, Kia takatu koutou i te toru o nga ra: kaua e whakatata atu ki te wahine.
16 And the thirde day, when it was morning, there was thunders and lightnings, and a thicke cloude vpon the mount, and the sounde of the trumpet exceeding loude, so that all the people, that was in the campe, was afrayde.
A ka taka ki te toru o nga ra, i te ata, na, ka puta mai nga whatitiri, me nga uira, me te kapua matotoru i runga i te maunga, me te tangi o te tetere, tona nui na! a wiri katoa ana te hunga i te puni.
17 Then Moses brought the people out of the tents to meete with God, and they stoode in the nether part of the mount.
Na ka arahina atu te iwi e Mohi i te puni ki te whakatau i te Atua; a tu ana ratou ki raro i te maunga.
18 And mount Sinai was all on smoke, because the Lord came downe vpon it in fire, and the smoke therof ascended, as the smoke of a fornace, and all the mount trembled exceedingly.
A he paowa kau Maunga Hinai, no te mea kua heke iho a Ihowa ki runga, i roto i te ahi; a kake ana tona paowa, ano he paowa oumu, a wiri pu te maunga katoa.
19 And when the sound of the trumpet blew long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by voyce.
A i te mea ka nui haere rawa te tangi o te tetere, ka korero atu a Mohi, a ka korero a reo tangata mai te Atua ki a ia.
20 (For the Lord came downe vpon mount Sinai on the toppe of the mount) and when the Lord called Moses vp into the top of the mount, Moses went vp.
Na ka heke iho a Ihowa ki Maunga Hinai, ki te tihi o te maunga: a karangatia iho ana a Mohi e Ihowa ki te tihi o te maunga; a piki atu ana a Mohi.
21 Then the Lord said vnto Moses, Go down, charge the people, that they breake not their boundes, to go vp to the Lord to gaze, least many of them perish.
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Heke atu, kauwhautia te iwi ra, kei wahi ake ratou ki a Ihowa ki te matakitaki, a he tokomaha o ratou e hinga.
22 And let the Priestes also which come to the Lord be sanctified, least the Lord destroy them.
Ko nga tohunga hoki e whakatata ana ki a Ihowa, kia tapu ratou, kei auta atu a Ihowa ki a ratou.
23 And Moses sayde vnto the Lord, The people can not come vp into the mount Sinai: for thou hast charged vs, saying, Set markes on the mountaine, and sanctifie it.
A ka mea a Mohi ki a Ihowa, E kore e ahei i te iwi te piki ake ki Maunga Hinai; nau hoki i kauwhau iho ki a matou, i mea, Taiepatia te maunga, whakatapua hoki.
24 And the Lord sayd vnto him, Go, get thee downe, and come vp, thou, and Aaron with thee: but let not the Priestes and the people breake their boundes to come vp vnto the Lord, least he destroy them.
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, Haere, heke atu; ka piki mai ano koe, korua ko Arona: ko nga tohunga ia, me te iwi, kei wahi mai ratou, kei piki ki a Ihowa; kei auta atu ia ki a ratou.
25 So Moses went downe vnto the people, and tolde them.
A heke atu ana a Mohi ki te iwi, korero ana ki a ratou.
