Exodus 24
1 And He said to Moses, “Come up to YHWH, you, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy from [the] elderly of Israel, and you have bowed yourselves far off”;
Potom reče Mojsiju: “Uzađi k Jahvi - ti, Aron, Nadab i Abihu i sedamdeset izraelskih starješina. Poklonite se izdaljega!
2 and Moses has drawn near to YHWH by himself; and they do not draw near, and the people do not go up with him.
Neka se sam Mojsije primakne k Jahvi! Oni neka se ne primiču, a puk neka se s njim ne penje.”
3 And Moses comes in, and recounts to the people all the words of YHWH, and all the judgments, and all the people answer [with] one voice, and say, “All the words which YHWH has spoken we do.”
Dođe Mojsije i kaza narodu sve riječi Jahvine i sve odredbe. A sav puk odgovori u jedan glas: “Sve riječi što ih Jahve reče, vršit ćemo.”
4 And Moses writes all the words of YHWH, and rises early in the morning, and builds an altar under the hill, and twelve standing pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel;
Tada Mojsije popiše sve riječi Jahvine. A ujutro podrani te podigne žrtvenik na podnožju brda i dvanaest stupova za dvanaest plemena Izraelovih.
5 and he sends the youths of the sons of Israel, and they cause burnt-offerings to ascend, and sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings to YHWH—calves.
Zatim naloži mladim Izraelcima da prinesu žrtve paljenice i da žrtvuju Jahvi junce kao žrtve pričesnice.
6 And Moses takes half of the blood and puts [it] in basins, and he has sprinkled half of the blood on the altar;
Mojsije uhvati krv; polovinu krvi ulije u posude, a polovinu izlije po žrtveniku.
7 and he takes the Scroll of the Covenant, and proclaims [it] in the ears of the people, and they say, “All that which YHWH has spoken we do, and we obey.”
Prihvati zatim Knjigu Saveza pa je narodu glasno pročita, a narod uzvrati: “Sve što je Jahve rekao, izvršit ćemo i poslušat ćemo.”
8 And Moses takes the blood and sprinkles [it] on the people, and says, “Behold, the blood of the covenant which YHWH has made with you, concerning all these things.”
Mojsije potom uzme krvi te poškropi narod govoreći: “Ovo je krv Saveza koji je Jahve s vama uspostavio na temelju svih ovih riječi.”
9 And Moses goes up, Aaron also, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy from [the] elderly of Israel,
Onda se uspne Mojsije s Aronom, Nadabom i Abihuom i sa sedamdeset starješina Izraelovih.
10 and they see the God of Israel, and under His feet [is] as the work of a pavement of sapphire, and as the substance of the heavens for purity;
Oni vidješe Boga Izraelova: podnožje njegovim nogama kao da je bilo od dragoga kamena safira, sjajem nalik na samo nebo.
11 and He has not put forth His hand to those of the sons of Israel who are near, and they see God, and eat and drink.
Ni ruke svoje nije pružio na izabranike Izraelaca: slobodno su Boga motrili i jeli i pili.
12 And YHWH says to Moses, “Come up to Me [on] the mountain and be there, and I give to you the tablets of stone, and the Law, and the command, which I have written to direct them.”
Onda Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Popni se k meni na brdo i pričekaj ondje. Dat ću ti kamene ploče sa zakonom i zapovijedima koje sam za njihovu pouku napisao.”
13 And Moses rises—his minister Joshua also—and Moses goes up to the mountain of God;
Ustane Mojsije i njegov pomoćnik Jošua te se Mojsije popne na brdo Božje.
14 and he has said to the elderly, “Abide for us in this [place] until we return to you, and behold, Aaron and Hur [are] with you—he who has matters comes near to them.”
A starješinama reče: “Čekajte nas ovdje dok se ne vratimo. Eto je s vama Aron i Hur. Tko imadne kakvu razmiricu, neka se obrati na njih.”
15 And Moses goes up to the mountain, and the cloud covers the mountain;
Zatim Mojsije uzađe na brdo, a onda oblak prekri brdo.
16 and the glory of YHWH dwells on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covers it [for] six days, and He calls to Moses on the seventh day from the midst of the cloud.
Slava se Jahvina nastani na Sinajskom brdu i oblak ga obavijaše šest dana. Sedmoga dana zovne Jahve Mojsija isred oblaka.
17 And the appearance of the glory of YHWH [is] as a consuming fire on the top of the mountain, before the eyes of the sons of Israel;
Slava Jahvina na vrhuncu brda bijaše očima Izraelaca kao vatra koja sažiže. Mojsije zađe u oblak i uspne se na brdo.
18 and Moses goes into the midst of the cloud, and goes up to the mountain, and Moses is on the mountain forty days and forty nights.
Četrdeset dana i četrdeset noći boravio je Mojsije na brdu.
