Exodus 32
1 When the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together to Aaron, and said to him, "Come, make us gods, which shall go before us; for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him."
Pilnam loh tlang lamkah Moses a suntlak ham yak coeng tila a hmuh. Te dongah pilnam te Aaron taengla tingtun uh tih a taengah, “Thoo lamtah kaimih ham pathen saii laeh. Te te mamih hmai ah cet saeh. Egypt kho lamloh mamih aka khuen Moses he, hlang khaw a taengah mebang a om khaw m'ming uh moenih,” a ti uh.
2 Aaron said to them, "Take off the golden rings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them to me."
Te dongah Aaron loh amih te, “Na yuu rhoek, na canu, na capa hna dongkah sui hnaii te dul uh lamtah kai taengah hang khuen uh,” a ti nah.
3 All the people took off the golden rings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron.
Pilnam pum loh a hna dongkah sui hnaii te a dul uh tih Aaron taengla a khuen uh.
4 He received what they handed him, and fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made it a molten calf; and they said, "These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt."
Amih kut lamkah a loh phoeiah tah te te cacung neh a dum tih vaito mueihlawn la a saii. Te phoeiah, “Israel nang kah pathen la he, he long ni Egypt kho lamloh nang ng'khuen he,” a ti uh.
5 When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made a proclamation, and said, "Tomorrow shall be a feast to YHWH."
Aaron loh a hmuh vaengah a hmai ah hmueihtuk a suem. Te phoeiah Aaron loh a hoe tih, “Thangvuen ah BOEIPA taengah khotue om ni,” a ti nah.
6 They rose up early on the next day, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
A vuen ah thoo uh tih hmueihhlutnah a khuen uh. Rhoepnah a tawn phoeiah tah pilnam te ngol tih a caak a ok neh thoo uh tih nuei uh.
7 And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, "Go down at once, for your people whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt have corrupted themselves.
Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Egypt kho lamkah na khuen na pilnam he a poci coeng dongah cet lamtah suntla laeh.
8 They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them. They have made themselves a molten calf, and have worshiped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said, 'These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.'"
Amih ka uen longpuei lamloh vilvak taengphael uh tih amamih ham mueihlawn vaito a saii uh. Te te a bawk uh tih te te a nawn uh. Te phoeiah, ‘Namah pathen long ni Israel khaw Egypt kho lamloh na khuen,’ a ti uh,” a ti nah.
9 YHWH said to Moses, "I have seen these people, and look, they are a stiff-necked people.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Pilnam he ka hmuh vaengah pilnam kah a rhawn khaw mangkhak rhoe he.
10 Now therefore leave me alone, that my wrath may burn hot against them, and that I may consume them; and I will make of you a great nation."
Te dongah kai he n'rhoe laeh. Ka thintoek he amih taengah sai vetih amih ka khap lah ve. Tedae nang te namtom taengah pilnu la kang khueh bitni,” a ti nah.
11 Moses pleaded with YHWH his God, and said, "YHWH, why does your wrath burn hot against your people, that you have brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?
Te vaengah Moses tah a Pathen BOEIPA neh a maelhmai te thae coeng. Tedae, “BOEIPA aw balae tih Egypt kho lamloh tanglue thadueng neh, tlungluen kut neh na khuen na pilnam taengah na thintoek khaw a sai eh?
12 Why should the Egyptians speak, saying, 'He brought them forth for evil, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the surface of the earth?' Turn from your fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against your people.
Balae tih Egypt rhoek loh a thui mai eh? A thae la, ‘Amih te tlang ah ngawn ham neh amih te diklai hman lamloh khah ham ni amih a khuen,’ ti ve. Na thintoek thinsa lamloh mael lamtah na pilnam sokah boethae khaw kohlawt mai.
13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self, and said to them, 'I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the sky, and all this land that I have spoken of I will give to your descendants, and they shall inherit it forever.'"
Abraham te khaw, Isaak te khaw, na sal Israel te khaw poek mai. Namah loh amih taengah na toemngam tih amih te, ‘Na tiingan te vaan aisi bangla, ka ping sak vetih khohmuen pum he na tiingan taengah ka paek vetih kumhal ham a pang uh ni,’ ka ti nah na ti,” a ti nah.
14 YHWH changed his mind about the disaster which he said he would do to his people.
Te vaengah a pilnam soah boethae saii ham a thui tangtae te BOEIPA loh ko a hlawt.
15 Moses turned, and went down from the mountain, with the two tablets of the testimony in his hand; tablets that were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other they were written.
Te daengah Moses te mael tih a kut dongkah olphong cabael panit neh tlang lamloh suntla thuk. Cabael rhoi te a vae rhoi ah a daek pah tih khatben ah khaw khatben ah khaw a daek.
16 The tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tables.
Te rhoi tah Pathen kah kutngo cabael coeng tih, Pathen kah a cadaek a cadaek te amah loh cabael dongah a daek.
17 When Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, "There is the noise of war in the camp."
Pilnam kah a o ol te Joshua loh a yaak van vaengah Moses te, “Rhaehhmuen kah caemtloek ol te,” a ti nah.
18 He said, "It isn't the voice of those who shout for victory, neither is it the voice of those who cry for being overcome; but the noise of those who sing that I hear."
Tedae, “Thayung thamal aka doo ham ol pawt tih yawknah aka doo kah ol bal moenih. A doo ol ka yaak ngawn dae,” a ti nah.
19 It happened, as soon as he came near to the camp, that he saw the calf and the dancing: and Moses' anger grew hot, and he threw the tablets out of his hands, and broke them beneath the mountain.
Rhaehhmuen la a moe vaengah vaitoca neh a lam te a hmuh. Te dongah Moses kah thintoek te sai tih a kut te a voeih. Te dongah a kut lamkah cabael rhoi khaw tlang yung ah bok rhek.
20 He took the calf which they had made, and burnt it with fire, ground it to powder, and scattered it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.
Te phoeiah vaitoca a saii uh te a loh tih hmai neh a hoeh. A tip la a neet phoeiah tui soah a phul tih Israel ca rhoek te a tul.
21 Moses said to Aaron, "What did these people do to you, that you have brought a great sin on them?"
Te phoeiah Moses loh Aaron te, “A taengah tholh len na khuen pah ham he pilnam loh nang taengah balae a saii?” a ti nah.
22 Aaron said, "Do not let the anger of my lord grow hot. You know the people, that they are set on evil.
Te vaengah Aaron loh, “Ka boeipa kah thintoek khaw sai boel mai dae saeh. Pilnam a thae aih khaw namah loh na ming.
23 For they said to me, 'Make us gods, which shall go before us; for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.'
Kai taengah, ‘Kaimih ham pathen saii lamtah te te mamih hmai ah cet bitni. Egypt kho lamloh mamih aka mawt hlang, Moses he a taengah metla a om khaw m'ming moenih,’ a ti uh.
24 I said to them, 'Whoever has any gold, let them take it off:' so they gave it to me; and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf."
Te dongah amih te, ‘U khaw sui aka khueh tah dul uh,’ ka ti nah. Te vaengah kamah taengla m'paek uh tih hmai dongah ka pup hatah he vaitoca la poeh,” a ti nah.
25 When Moses saw that the people had broken loose, (for Aaron had let them loose for a derision among their enemies),
Te vaengah pilnam te a hlahpham coeng tila Moses loh a hmuh. Amih aka tlai thil taengah Aaron loh nueih thaboep la a hlahpham dongah ni.
26 then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, "Whoever is on YHWH's side, come to me." All the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.
Te dongah Moses tah rhaehhmuen vongka ah pai tih, “BOEIPA kah te tah kai taengla,” a ti nah hatah Levi koca boeih te anih taengla tingtun uh.
27 He said to them, "Thus says YHWH, the God of Israel, 'Every man put his sword on his thigh, and go back and forth from gate to gate throughout the camp, and every man kill his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.'"
Te phoeiah amih te, “Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Hlang loh a cunghang te a phai ah kaelh saeh. Cet saeh lamtah vongka lamloh vongka patoeng hil rhaehhmuen te hil saeh. Te vaengah a manuca hlang te khaw, a hui kah hlang khaw, a hmaiben hlang khaw ngawn saeh,” a ti nah.
28 The sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.
Te dongah Moses ol bangla Levi koca rhoek loh a saii uh tih te hnin ah pilnam khuikah hlang thawng thum tluk cungku.
29 And Moses said, "You have been consecrated today to YHWH, each one at the cost of his son and of his brother, so he has given a blessing to you this day."
Te daengah Moses loh, “Tihnin ah BOEIPA ham na kut han cung sak coeng. Hlang he a ca taengah khaw a manuca taengah khaw, tihnin ah nangmih te yoethennah m'paek pawn ni,” a ti nah.
30 It happened on the next day, that Moses said to the people, "You have committed a great sin. And now I will go up to God. Perhaps I can make atonement for your sin."
A vuen ah tah Moses loh pilnam te, “Nangmih he tholh len neh na tholh uh coeng dae BOEIPA taengah ka cet pawn vetih nangmih kah tholhnah ham ka dawth thai khaming,” a ti nah.
31 Moses returned to YHWH, and said, "Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made themselves gods of gold.
Te phoeiah Moses te BOEIPA taengla mael tih, “Pilnam he aw, amamih ham sui pathen a saii uh dongah tholh len neh tholh coeng.
32 Yet now, if you will, forgive their sin—and if not, please blot me out of your book which you have written."
Tedae amih kah tholhnah he phuei mai laeh. Te pawt atah kai he na daek tangtae na cabu lamloh n'khoe mai laeh,” a ti nah.
33 YHWH said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
Tedae BOEIPA loh Moses taengah, “Kai taengah aka tholh te unim? Anih te ka cabu lamloh ka khoe bitni.
34 Now go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you. Look, my angel shall go before you. Nevertheless in the day when I punish, I will punish them for their sin."
Te dongah cet lamtah nang taengah kan thui bangla pilnam te mawt laeh. Ka puencawn loh na hmai ah cet bitni ne. Ka cawh khohnin ah ngawn tah amamih kah tholhnah bangla amamih soah ka cawh van bitni,” a ti nah.
35 YHWH struck the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made.
Aaron kah a saii bangla vaitoca te a saii uh dongah BOEIPA loh pilnam te a vuek.
