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.
Ipapo akati kuna Mozisi, “Kwira kuna Jehovha, iwe naAroni, Nadhabhi naAbhihu, navakuru vavaIsraeri makumi manomwe. Munamate muri chinhambwe,
2 And Moses alone shall draw near unto Yahweh, but, they shall not draw near, and, the people, shall not come up with him.
asi Mozisi oga ndiye anofanira kuswedera kuna Jehovha; vamwe havafaniri kuswedera pedyo. Uye vanhu havangakwiri naye.”
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.
Mozisi akati aenda kundoudza vanhu mashoko ose nemirayiro yose yaJehovha, ivo vakati nenzwi rimwe chete, “Tichaita zvinhu zvose zvakarehwa naJehovha.”
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:
Ipapo Mozisi akanyora zvinhu zvose zvakanga zvarehwa naJehovha. Akamuka mangwana acho mangwanani akavaka aritari mujinga megomo uye akamisa mbiru dzamabwe gumi nembiri dzichimirira marudzi gumi namaviri avaIsraeri.
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.
Ipapo akatuma majaya avaIsraeri, uye vakapa zvipiriso zvinopiswa uye vakabayira hando duku sezvipiriso zvokuwadzana kuna Jehovha.
6 Then took Moses half of the blood, and put it in basins, and half of the blood, dashed he over the altar:
Mozisi akatora hafu yeropa akariisa mumidziyo, uye imwe hafu akaisasa paaritari.
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,
Ipapo akatora Bhuku reSungano akariverengera vanhu. Ivo vakati, “Tichaita zvinhu zvose zvakarehwa naJehovha; tichazviteerera.”
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.
Ipapo Mozisi akatora ropa, akarisasa pamusoro pavanhu uye akati, “Iri iropa resungano yaitwa naJehovha nemi maererano namashoko aya ose.”
9 Then went up Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel;
Mozisi naAroni, Nadhabhi naAbhihu uye navakuru makumi manomwe vavaIsraeri vakakwira
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
uye vakaona Mwari waIsraeri. Pasi petsoka dzake pakanga pane chimwe chinhu chakaita sechivakwa chesafire, chakanga chichionekwa sedenga pacharo.
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,
Asi Mwari haana kusimudza ruoko rwake pamusoro pavatungamiri vavaIsraeri ava; vakaona Mwari, uye vakadya vakanwa.
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.
Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi, “Kwira kuno kwandiri pamusoro pegomo ugare pano, ndigokupa mahwendefa amabwe, ane mirayiro nemitemo zvandanyora kuti varayirwe.”
13 And Moses rose up, and Joshua his attendant, and Moses went up into the mountain of God;
Ipapo Mozisi akasimuka naJoshua mubatsiri wake, uye Mozisi akakwira mugomo raMwari.
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.
Akati kuvakuru, “Timirirei pano kusvikira tadzoka kwamuri. Aroni naHuri vanemi, uye ani naani zvake anopesana nomumwe anogona kuenda kwavari.”
15 So then Moses wont up into the mountain, —and the cloud covered the mountain.
Mozisi akati akwira mugomo, gore rakarifukidza,
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.
uye kubwinya kwaJehovha kwakagara pamusoro peGomo reSinai. Gore rakafukidza gomo iro kwamazuva matanhatu, uye pazuva rechinomwe, Jehovha akadana Mozisi ari mukati megore.
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.
KuvaIsraeri, kubwinya kwaJehovha kwairatidzika somoto unoparadza uri pamusoro pegomo.
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.
Ipapo akapinda mugore paakanga achikwira mugomo. Uye akagara mugomo kwamazuva makumi mana nousiku huna makumi mana.
