Exodus 24
1 And unto Moses, he said—Come up unto Yahweh—thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, so shall ye bow yourselves down from afar.
Mosi quoque dixit ascende ad Dominum tu et Aaron Nadab et Abiu et septuaginta senes ex Israhel et adorabitis procul
2 And Moses alone shall draw near unto Yahweh, but, they shall not draw near, and, the people, shall not come up with him.
solusque Moses ascendet ad Dominum et illi non adpropinquabunt nec populus ascendet cum eo
3 So Moses came, and recounted to the people all the words of Yahweh, and all the regulations, and all the people responded with one voice and said, All the words which Yahweh hath spoken, will we do.
venit ergo Moses et narravit plebi omnia verba Domini atque iudicia responditque cunctus populus una voce omnia verba Domini quae locutus est faciemus
4 Then wrote Moses all the words of Yahweh, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar, under the mountain, and twelve pillars, for the twelve tribes of Israel:
scripsit autem Moses universos sermones Domini et mane consurgens aedificavit altare ad radices montis et duodecim titulos per duodecim tribus Israhel
5 and he sent young men of the sons of Israel, and they caused to go up, ascending-sacrifices, —and slew peace-offerings to Yahweh, of oxen.
misitque iuvenes de filiis Israhel et obtulerunt holocausta immolaveruntque victimas pacificas Domino vitulos
6 Then took Moses half of the blood, and put it in basins, and half of the blood, dashed he over the altar:
tulit itaque Moses dimidiam partem sanguinis et misit in crateras partem autem residuam fudit super altare
7 then took he the book of the covenant, and read in the ears of the people. And they said, All that Yahweh hath spoken, will we do, and will hearken,
adsumensque volumen foederis legit audiente populo qui dixerunt omnia quae locutus est Dominus faciemus et erimus oboedientes
8 Then Moses took the blood, and dashed over the people, and said, Lo! the blood of the covenant which Yahweh hath solemnised with you, over all these words.
ille vero sumptum sanguinem respersit in populum et ait hic est sanguis foederis quod pepigit Dominus vobiscum super cunctis sermonibus his
9 Then went up Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel;
ascenderuntque Moses et Aaron Nadab et Abiu et septuaginta de senioribus Israhel
10 and they saw the God of Israel, —and under his feet, like a pavement of sapphire, and like the very heavens for brightness; and
et viderunt Deum Israhel sub pedibus eius quasi opus lapidis sapphirini et quasi caelum cum serenum est
11 against the nobles of the sons of Israel, put he not forth his hand, —so then they had vision of God, and did eat and drink,
nec super eos qui procul recesserant de filiis Israhel misit manum suam videruntque Deum et comederunt ac biberunt
12 Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Come thou up unto me in the mountain and remain thou there, —for I must give thee tables of stone and the law and the commandment, which I have written to direct them.
dixit autem Dominus ad Mosen ascende ad me in montem et esto ibi daboque tibi tabulas lapideas et legem ac mandata quae scripsi ut doceas eos
13 And Moses rose up, and Joshua his attendant, and Moses went up into the mountain of God;
surrexerunt Moses et Iosue minister eius ascendensque Moses in montem Dei
14 but, unto the elders, he said—Tarry for us here, until we return unto you. And lo! Aaron and Hur, are with you, he that hath a cause, let him draw near unto them.
senioribus ait expectate hic donec revertamur ad vos habetis Aaron et Hur vobiscum si quid natum fuerit quaestionis referetis ad eos
15 So then Moses wont up into the mountain, —and the cloud covered the mountain.
cumque ascendisset Moses operuit nubes montem
16 And the glory of Yahweh rested upon Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days, —then called he unto Moses on the seventh day, out of the midst of the cloud.
et habitavit gloria Domini super Sinai tegens illum nube sex diebus septimo autem die vocavit eum de medio caliginis
17 And the appearance of the glory of Yahweh was like a consuming fire on the top of the mountain, —in the sight of the sons of Israel.
erat autem species gloriae Domini quasi ignis ardens super verticem montis in conspectu filiorum Israhel
18 And Moses entered into the midst of the cloud and ascended into the mountain. And it came to pass that Moses was in the mountain forty days and forty nights.
ingressusque Moses medium nebulae ascendit in montem et fuit ibi quadraginta diebus et quadraginta noctibus
