< Exodus 19 >

1 In the third month, by the coming forth of the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt, on this day, came they into the desert of Sinai:
A I ke kolu o ka malama o ka puka ana mai o na mamo a Iseraela mai loko mai o Aigupita, ia la no, hiki mai la lakou i ka waonakele o Sinai.
2 then was it that they brake up out of Rephidim and came into the desert of Sinai, and encamped in the desert, —yea Israel encamped there before the mountain.
A hele mai la lakou, mai Repidima mai, a hiki ma ka waonahele o Sinai, a hoomoana iho la lakou ma ka waonahele; malaila ka Iseraela i hoomoana ai ma kahi e pili ana i ka mauna.
3 And when Moses, had gone up unto God, then called Yahweh unto him out of the mountain saying, Thus, shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, And tell the sons of Israel:
Pii aku la o Mose i ke Akua, a hea mai la o Iehova ia ia mai ka mauna mai, me ka i ana mai, Penei oe e olelo aku ai i na pua a Iakoba, a e hai aku i na mamo a Iseraela;
4 Ye, have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, —And how I bare you upon wings of eagles, And brought you in unto myself: —
Ua ike no oukou i na mea a'u i hana'i i ko Aigupita, i ko'u kaikai ana ia oukou ma na eheu o ka aeto, a lawe mai ia oukou io'u nei.
5 Now, therefore, if ye will, indeed hearken, to my voice, And keep my covenant, Then shall ye be mine as a treasure beyond all the peoples, For, mine, is all the earth;
A ina hoolohe io mai oukou i ko'u leo, a malama hoi i ko'u berita, alaila e lilo auanei oukou i waiwai no'u, mamua o na kanaka a pau; no ka mea, no'u no ka honua nei a pau:
6 But, ye, shall be mine, As a kingdom of priests, And a holy nation. These, are the words, which thou shalt speak unto the sons of Israel.
E lilo no hoi oukou i aupuni kahuna pule no'u, a he lahuikanaka laa. Oia hoi na olelo au e hai aku ai i na mamo a Iseraela.
7 Then came Moses, and called for the elders of the people, —and put before them all these words which Yahweh had commanded him.
Hele ae la o Mose, a hea aku la i na lunakahiko o kanaka, a hoonoho iho la imua o lakou i keia mau olelo a pau a Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia ia.
8 And all the people responded together and said, All that Yahweh hath spoken, will we do. And Moses took back the words of the people, unto Yahweh.
Olelo pu mai la na kanaka a pau, i mai la, O na mea a pau a Iehova i olelo mai ai, e hana makou ia mea. Hai aku la o Mose i na olelo a kanaka ia Iehova.
9 Then said Yahweh unto Moses: Lo! I, am coming unto thee in the veiling of cloud, in order that the people may hear when I speak with thee, moreover also, that, in thee, they may trust to times age-abiding. Then told Moses the words of the people unto Yahweh.
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, Aia hoi, e hele mai ana au i ou nei maloko o ke ao panopano, i lohe na kanaka i ka'u kamailio ana me oe, a e manaoio mau loa mai ia oe. A hai aku la o Mose i na olelo a kanaka ia Iehova.
10 And Yahweh said unto Moses—Go unto the people, and thou shalt hallow them to-day, and to-morrow, —and they shall wash their clothes;
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E hele oe i kanaka, e hoolaa ia lakou i keia la, a apopo; e holoi hoi lakou i ko lakou kapa.
11 and shall be ready, by the third day, —for on the third day, will Yahweh come down in the sight of all the people upon Mount Sinai.
E hoomakaukau, no ke kolu o ka la, no ka mea, i ke kolu o ka la, e iho mai ai o Iehova, imua o na maka o kanaka a pau, ma ka mauna o Sinai.
12 So then thou shalt set bounds for the people round about saying, Take heed to yourselves—that ye go not up into the mountain, nor touch the boundary thereof, whosoever toucheth the mountain, shall, surely die.
A e kau iho oe i pale, no na kanaka a puni, a e i aku hoi, E malama oukou ia oukou iho, i ko oukou pii ana i ka mauna, a me ka pa ana i kona kihi: o ka mea e pa i ka mauna, he oiaio no e make ia.
13 No hand shall touch it but he shall be, surely stoned, or be, surely shot, whether beast or man, he shall not live, —When the ram’s horn soundeth, they themselves, shall come up within the mount,
Mai hoopa aku kekahi lima ia mea, no ka mea, he oiaio no, e hailukuia oia, a houia; ina he holoholona, a he kanaka, aole ia e ola: a i kani loihi ka pu, alaila e hele mai lakou i ka mauna.
14 Then Moses went down out of the mount, unto the people, —and hallowed the people, and they washed their clothes.
Iho iho la o Mose ilalo, mai ka mauna iho i kanaka; hoolaa iho la i kanaka; a holoi iho la lakou i ko lakou kapa.
15 And he said unto the people, Be ready, by the third day, —do not approach a woman.
I aku la ia i kanaka, E hoomakaukau oukou, no ke kolu o ka la; mai komo ae i na wahine.
16 And it came to pass on the third day, when the morning had come, that there were thunderings and lightnings, and a heavy cloud upon the mount, and the sound of a horn, loud exceedingly, —and all the people who were in the camp trembled.
A i ke kakahiaka o ke kolu o ka la, he hekili. a he uila, a he ao polohiwa ma ka mauna, a he leo no ka pu e kani ikaika loa ana; haalulu iho la na kanaka a pau ma. ko lakou wihi i hoomoana ai.
17 And Moses brought forth the people, to meet God out of the camp, —and they stationed themselves in the lower part of the mount,
Kai mai la o Mose i kanaka mawaho o kahi a lakou e hoomoana ai, e halawai me ke Akua; a ku iho la lakou ma kahi malalo iho o ka mauna.
18 And Mount Sinai, smoked, all over, because Yahweh had come down thereon in fire, —and the smoke thereof went up as the smoke of a furnace, and all the mountain trembled exceedingly.
Ma ka mauna a pau i Sinai, he uwahi, no ka mea, ua iho mai o Iehova maluna ona maloko o ke ahi: a punohu aku la kona uwahi, me he uwahi umu hao la, haalulu nui iho la ka mauna a pau.
19 And as oft as the sound of the horn went on and became exceeding loud, Moses, spake and, God, responded to him with a voice.
A i ke kani loihi loa ana o ka pu, a ikaika nui ae la, olelo aku la o Mose, a pane mai la ka leo o ke Akua ia ia.
20 Thus came Yahweh down upon Mount Sinai unto the top of the mount, —and Yahweh called Moses unto the top of the mount, and Moses went up.
Iho mai la o Iehova maluna o ka mauna o Sinai, ma ke poo o ka mauna, a hea mai la o Iehova ia Mose e pii aku i ke poo o ka mauna; a pii aku la o Mose.
21 Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Go down, adjure the people, —lest they press through unto Yahweh to see, and so there fall from among them a multitude.
I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E iho oe ilalo, e kauoha aku i kanaka, o hemo mai lakou io Iehova nei, e nana, a haule lakou he nui loa.
22 Yea, even the priests who do approach unto Yahweh, must hallow themselves, —lest Yahweh break in upon them.
A e huikala hoi na kahuna ia lakou iho, o ka poe e hookokoke ana ia Iehova, o poha aku o Iehova io lakou la.
23 And Moses said unto Yahweh, The people cannot come up into Mount Sinai, —for, thou thyself, hast adjured us saying: Set bounds to the mountain and hallow it.
I aku la o Mose ia Iehova, Aole e hiki na kanaka ke pii mai i ka mauna nei i Sinai: no ka mea, ua kauoha mai oe ia makou, ua i mai, E kau iho i pale a puni ka mauna, a e hookapu ia mea.
24 And Yahweh said unto him—Away, down, then shalt thou come up, thou and Aaron with thee, —but as for the priests and the people, let it not be that they press through to come up unto Yahweh lest he break in upon them.
I mai la o Iehova ia ia, O hele, e iho oe ilalo, a e pii hou mai oe, o oe, a me Aarona pu; aka, o na kahuna a me kanaka, mai hemo mai lakou, e pii mai io Iehova nei, o poha aku ia maluna o lakou.
25 So Moses went down unto the people, —and said [these things] unto them.
Iho mai la o Mose ilalo i kanaka, a olelo aku la ia lakou.
