< Exodus 34 >

1 And the LORD said unto Moses, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first: and I will write upon the tables the words that were on the first tables, which thou brakest.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Teekateeka ebipande bibiri eby’amayinja nga biri ebyasooka, nange nnaabiwandiikako ebigambo ebyali ku bipande ebyasooka bye wamenya.
2 And be ready by the morning, and come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and present thyself there to me on the top of the mount.
Weetegeke mu makya, ojje mu makya ago olinnye waggulu ku lusozi Sinaayi, olyoke onneeyanjulire eyo ku ntikko y’olusozi.
3 And no man shall come up with thee, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount.
Tewasaana kubaawo muntu ajja naawe, era ku lusozi wonna wonna tewasaana kulabikawo muntu n’omu; era n’amagana n’ebisibo by’endiga tebisaana kuliira mu maaso ga lusozi.”
4 And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up unto mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and took in his hand two tables of stone.
Bw’atyo Musa n’atema mu mayinja ebipande bibiri nga bifaanana nga biri ebyasooka; n’akeera mu makya n’alinnya ku lusozi Sinaayi, nga Mukama bwe yamulagira, ng’asitudde n’ebipande eby’amayinja byombi mu mikono gye.
5 And the LORD descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the LORD.
Awo Mukama n’akkira mu kire, n’ayimirira awo ne Musa, n’alangirira erinnya lye, Mukama.
6 And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, the LORD, a God full of compassion and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy and truth;
Mukama n’ayita mu maaso ga Musa n’agamba nti, “Nze Mukama, Mukama Katonda alina ekisa n’okusaasira okungi, atasunguwala mangu, ajjudde obwesigwa n’okwagala okutaggwaawo.
7 keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin: and that will by no means clear [the guilty]; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children’s children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.
Akuuma okwagala eri enkumi n’enkumi asonyiwa ebisobyo byabwe, n’obujeemu bwabwe, n’ebibi byabwe. Talema kubonereza oyo asingiddwa omusango. Abonereza abaana n’abazzukulu olw’ebisobyo bya bakadde baabwe n’ebya bajjajjaabwe, okutuukira ddala ku mulembe ogwokusatu n’ogwokuna.”
8 And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.
Amangwago Musa n’avuunama wansi, n’asinza.
9 And he said, If now I have found grace in thy sight, O Lord, let the Lord, I pray thee, go in the midst of us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for thine inheritance.
N’agamba nti, “Obanga kaakano nkusanyusizza, Ayi Mukama, jjangu, Mukama, ogende naffe. Newaakubadde ng’abantu bano balina ensingo nkakanyavu, naye tusonyiwe ebyonoono byaffe n’ebibi byaffe, otukkirize tubeere abantu bo ab’obusika bwo.”
10 And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been wrought in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the LORD, for it is a terrible thing that I do with thee.
Awo Mukama n’addamu nti, “Laba, nkola naawe endagaano. Nzija kukolera mu bantu bo ebyamagero ebitakolwangako mu nsi yonna, wadde mu ggwanga lyonna. Abantu bonna b’oli nabo banaalaba eby’ekitalo Mukama by’anaakolera mu ggwe.
11 Observe thou that which I command thee this day: behold, I drive out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
“Gondera bye nkulagira leero. Nange, gye mulaga, nzija kugobayo Abamoli, n’Abakanani, n’Abakiiti, n’Abaperezi, n’Abakiivi, n’Abayebusi.
12 Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee:
Kirungi weekuume oleme kukola ndagaano n’abatuuze ab’omu nsi gy’olagamu, kubanga bayinza okubafuukira omutego.
13 but ye shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and ye shall cut down their Asherim:
Olimenyaamenya ebyoto byabwe, obetente empagi zaabwe, n’otemaatema ebifaananyi byabwe ebibajje bye basinza.
14 for thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:
Tosinzanga katonda mulala yenna, kubanga Nze Mukama, ayitibwa Waabuggya, ndi Katonda wa buggya.
15 lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee and thou eat of his sacrifice;
“Temukolanga ndagaano ey’okukolagana n’abatuuze b’omu nsi omwo. Kubanga bwe baliba bagoberera bakatonda baabwe, nga bawaayo ssaddaaka, gamba omu ku bo n’abayita, mulirya ku biweebwayo byabwe ebyo.
16 and thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods.
Era bwe muliwasiza batabani bammwe abamu ku bawala baabwe, abawala abo ne bagoberera bakatonda baabwe, balireetera batabani bammwe nabo okukola bwe batyo.
17 Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
“Temwekoleranga bakatonda mu byuma ebisaanuuse.
18 The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, at the time appointed in the month Abib: for in the month Abib thou camest out from Egypt.
“Embaga ey’Emigaati Egitali Mizimbulukuse ogikwatanga. Munaamalanga ennaku musanvu nga mulya emigaati egitali mizimbulukuse, mu kiseera ekyategekebwa mu mwezi gwa Abibu nga bwe nabalagira; kubanga mu mwezi gwa Abibu mwe mwaviira mu Misiri.
19 All that openeth the womb is mine; and all thy cattle that is male, the firstlings of ox and sheep.
“Ebiggulanda byonna byange, n’ennume zonna mu magana go embereberye, oba nte oba ndiga.
20 And the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb: and if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou shalt break its neck. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt redeem. And none shall appear before me empty.
Endogoyi embereberye onoozinunulanga n’endiga, naye nga toginunudde ogimenyanga ensingo n’ogitta. Abaana bo abaggulanda bonna obanunulanga. Era tewabanga ajja gye ndi engalo ensa.
21 Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: in plowing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.
“Onookolanga okumala ennaku mukaaga, naye ku lunaku olw’omusanvu n’owummula; ne mu biseera eby’okukabala n’ebyokukungula onoowummulanga.
22 And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, [even] of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year’s end.
“Onookwatanga Embaga eya Wiiki, n’Embaga ey’Amakungula g’Ebibala Ebibereberye eby’Eŋŋaano, n’Embaga ey’Okuyingiza Amakungula ku nkomerero y’omwaka.
23 Three times in the year shall all thy males appear before the Lord GOD, the God of Israel.
Abasajja bonna mu mmwe banaalabikanga awali Mukama Katonda, Katonda wa Isirayiri, emirundi esatu mu buli mwaka.
24 For I will cast out nations before thee, and enlarge thy borders: neither shall any man desire thy land, when thou goest up to appear before the LORD thy God three times in the year.
Amawanga ŋŋenda kugagobawo wonna we muli, era ndigaziya n’ensalo zammwe. So tewalibaawo ayagala kutwala nsi yammwe nga mwambuse okulabika awali Mukama Katonda wammwe emirundi egyo esatu mu mwaka.
25 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.
“Temuwangayo kintu kyonna gye ndi ekirimu ekizimbulukusa nga mundeetedde ssaddaaka erimu omusaayi; era ennyama ya ssaddaaka ey’Embaga y’Okuyitako tesigalangawo kutuusa nkeera.
26 The first of the firstfruits of thy ground thou shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in its mother’s milk.
“Ebibala ebisinga obulungi mu ebyo ebisoose okuva mu ttaka lyo obitwalanga mu nnyumba ya Mukama Katonda wo. “Omwana gw’embuzi togufumbiranga mu mata ga nnyina waagwo.”
27 And the LORD said unto Moses, Write thou these words: for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Wandiika ebigambo ebyo; kubanga nkoze endagaano naawe era ne Isirayiri ng’ebigambo ebyo bwe bigamba.”
28 And he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
Musa n’abeera eyo ne Mukama, n’amalayo emisana amakumi ana n’ebiro amakumi ana, nga talya mmere wadde okunywa amazzi. N’awandiika ku bipande ebigambo eby’Endagaano, ge Mateeka Ekkumi.
29 And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of the testimony in Moses’ hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses wist not that the skin of his face shone by reason of his speaking with him.
Musa bwe yaserengeta okuva ku lusozi Sinaayi ng’akutte mu ngalo ze ebipande byombi eby’Endagaano, teyakimanya ng’obwenyi bwe bwali bumasamasa kubanga yali ayogedde ne Mukama.
30 And when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come nigh him.
Era Alooni n’abaana ba Isirayiri bonna bwe baatunula ku Musa, ne balaba ng’obwenyi bwe bumasamasa; ne batya okumusemberera.
31 And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned unto him: and Moses spake to them.
Naye Musa n’abayita; bw’atyo Alooni n’abakulembeze b’abantu ne bajja gy’ali, Musa n’ayogera nabo.
32 And afterward all the children of Israel came nigh: and he gave them in commandment all that the LORD had spoken with him in mount Sinai.
Oluvannyuma abaana ba Isirayiri bonna ne basembera, n’abategeeza amateeka gonna Mukama ge yamulagira ku lusozi Sinaayi.
33 And when Moses had done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face.
Awo Musa bwe yamala okwogera nabo, n’abikka obwenyi bwe olugoye.
34 But when Moses went in before the LORD to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out, and spake unto the children of Israel that which he was commanded;
Naye Musa bwe yabanga agenda awali Mukama okwogera naye, ng’olugoye olubikka obwenyi bwe alwebikkula okutuusa lwe yavangayo. Bwe yakomangawo okutegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri Mukama by’amulagidde,
35 and the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses’ face shone: and Moses put the veil upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him.
baalabanga obwenyi bwe nga bumasamasa. Bw’atyo Musa ne yezzaako olugoye olubikka obwenyi bwe, okutuusa lwe yaddangayo eri Mukama okwogera naye.
