< Exodus 24 >
1 And unto Moses He said: 'Come up unto the LORD, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship ye afar off;
Ary hoy Izy tamin’ i Mosesy: Miakara ao amin’ i Jehovah ianao sy Arona sy Nadaba sy Abiho ary fito-polo lahy amin’ ny loholon’ ny Isiraely; ka miankohofa eny lavitra eny ianareo;
2 and Moses alone shall come near unto the LORD; but they shall not come near; neither shall the people go up with him.'
nefa Mosesy ihany no hanakaiky an’ i Jehovah, fa ireo tsy mba hanakaiky; ary ny olona tsy hiakatra homba azy.
3 And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice, and said: 'All the words which the Lord hath spoken will we do.'
Dia tonga Mosesy ka nanambara tamin’ ny olona ny teny rehetra izay nataon’ i Jehovah sy ny fitsipika rehetra. Ary namaly indray miredona ny olona rehetra ka nanao hoe: Ny teny rehetra izay nolazain’ i Jehovah dia hataonay.
4 And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the mount, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
Ary Mosesy nanoratra ny teny rehetra nataon’ i Jehovah, dia nifoha maraina koa ka nanorina alitara teo am-bodin’ ny tendrombohitra sy tsangam-bato roa ambin’ ny folo, araka ny firenen’ Isiraely roa ambin’ ny folo.
5 And he sent the young men of the children of Israel, who offered burnt-offerings, and sacrificed peace-offerings of oxen unto the LORD.
Ary ny zatovo amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely nirahiny, dia nitondra fanatitra dorana ireo ka namono vantotr’ ombilahy hatao fanati-pihavanana ho an’ i Jehovah.
6 And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basins; and half of the blood he dashed against the altar.
Ary nalain’ i Mosesy ny antsasaky ny rà ka nataony teo anaty lovia, ary ny antsasaky ny rà kosa natopiny teo amin’ ny alitara.
7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the hearing of the people; and they said: 'All that the LORD hath spoken will we do, and obey.'
Dia naka ny bokin’ ny fanekena izy ka namaky teny teo anatrehan’ ny olona. Ary hoy ny olona: Izay rehetra nolazain’ i Jehovah dia hataonay sy hekenay.
8 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said: 'Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you in agreement with all these words.'
Ary nalain’ i Mosesy ny rà ka natopiny tamin’ ny olona, dia hoy izy: Indro ny ran’ ny fanekena izay nataon’ i Jehovah taminareo ny amin’ izany teny rehetra izany.
9 Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel;
Dia niakatra Mosesy sy Arona sy Nadaba sy Abiho ary fito-polo lahy tamin’ ny loholon’ ny Isiraely.
10 and they saw the God of Israel; and there was under His feet the like of a paved work of sapphire stone, and the like of the very heaven for clearness.
Dia nahita an’ Andriamanitry ny Isiraely izy; koa ny teo ambanin’ ny tongony dia toy ny fanganohanon’ ny vato safira voavoatra, ary toy ny tenan’ ny lanitra ny famirapirany.
11 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel He laid not His hand; and they beheld God, and did eat and drink.
Ary tsy naninjitra ny tànany tamin’ ireo lehiben’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely Izy; dia nahita an’ Andriamanitra izy ireo, ary nihinana sy nisotro.
12 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Come up to Me into the mount and be there; and I will give thee the tables of stone, and the law and the commandment, which I have written, that thou mayest teach them.'
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Miakara eto amiko eto an-tendrombohitra ka mitoera eto, dia homeko anao ny vato fisaka izay misy ny lalàna sy ny didy, izay nosoratako hampianarina azy.
13 And Moses rose up, and Joshua his minister; and Moses went up into the mount of God.
Dia niainga Mosesy sy Josoa mpanompony; ary Mosesy dia niakatra tao an-tendrombohitr’ Andriamanitra.
14 And unto the elders he said: 'Tarry ye here for us, until we come back unto you; and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you; whosoever hath a cause, let him come near unto them.'
Ary hoy izy tamin’ ny loholona: Miandrasa anay eto mandra-piverinay eto aminareo; ary, indro, Arona sy Hora dia eto aminareo, koa raha misy olona manana ady, aoka hankeo amin’ izy roa lahy izy.
15 And Moses went up into the mount, and the cloud covered the mount.
Dia niakatra tao amin’ ny tendrombohitra Mosesy, ary ny rahona nanarona ny tendrombohitra.
16 And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days; and the seventh day He called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
Ary ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah nitoetra teo ambonin’ ny tendrombohitra Sinay, ary ny rahona nanarona azy henemana; dia niantso an’ i Mosesy tamin’ ny andro fahafito teo afovoan’ ny rahona Izy.
17 And the appearance of the glory of the LORD was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the children of Israel.
Ary ny fijery ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah teo an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra dia tahaka ny afo mandevona teo imason’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
18 And Moses entered into the midst of the cloud, and went up into the mount; and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.
Dia niditra tao afovoan’ ny rahona Mosesy ka niakatra tao amin’ ny tendrombohitra; ary nitoetra tao amin’ ny tendrombohitra efa-polo andro sy efa-polo alina Mosesy.
