< Exodus 33 >

1 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses—Get thee away, go up from hence, thou, and the people whom thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt, —into the land of which I sware to Abraham to Isaac and to Jacob, saying, To thy seed, will I give it;
Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy hoe: Mandehana miakatra hiala atỳ ianao sy ny firenena izay nentinao niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, ho amin’ ny tany izay nianianako tamin’ i Abrahama sy Isaka ary Jakoba hoe: Ny taranakao no homeko azy.
2 And I will send before thee a messenger, -and will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite;
Ary haniraka Anjely Aho hitarika anao eo aloha (ka horoahiko ny Kananita sy ny Amorita sy ny Hetita sy ny Perizita sy ny Hivita ary ny Jebosita),
3 into a land flowing with milk and honey, —for I will not go up in thy midst in that a stiff-necked people, thou art, lest I consume thee in the way.
dia ho amin’ izay tany tondra-dronono sy tantely; nefa tsy hiara-miakatra aminao Aho (satria olona mafy hatoka ianao), fandrao handringana anao eny an-dalana Aho.
4 And when the people heard these evil tidings, they afflicted themselves, —and they put not, any man, his ornaments upon him.
Ary rehefa ren’ ny olona izany teny mampahory izany, dia nanjoretra izy, ka tsy nisy olona niravaka intsony.
5 Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Say unto the sons of Israel, Ye, are a stiff-necked people, in one moment—if I should go up in thy midst, should I make an end of thee, —Now, therefore lay down thine ornaments from off thee, that I may see what I must do with thee.
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Lazao amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Hianareo dia olona mafy hatoka; koa raha hiara-miakatra aminao Aho, na dia indray mipi-maso aza, dia handringana anao Aho; koa ankehitriny, esory ny firavakao hiala aminao, mba ho fantatro izay hataoko aminao.
6 So then the sons of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments, [and moved on] from Mount Horeb.
Ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely dia nanala ny firavany hatreo an-tendrombohitra Horeba.
7 And, Moses, proceeded to take a tent, and pitch it by itself outside the camp, afar off from the camp, and he called it, The Tent of Meeting, —and so it came to pass that whosoever was seeking Yahweh went out unto the tent of meeting, which was on the outside of the camp.
Ary fanaon’ i Mosesy ny maka ny lay ka manorina azy eo ivelan’ ny toby lavidavitra, ary ny anarany dia nataony hoe Ny trano-lay fihaonana. Ary izay rehetra nitady an’ i Jehovah dia nivoaka ho eny amin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana izay teo ivelan’ ny toby.
8 And it came about, that, when Moses went out unto the tent, all the people used to rise up, and station themselves every man at the opening of his tent, —and they watched Moses, until he entered the tent.
Ary raha nivoaka ho eo amin’ ny lay Mosesy, dia nitsangana ny olona rehetra, ka samy nijanona teo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny lainy avy, dia nitazana an’ i Mosesy mandra-pahatongany ao amin’ ny lay.
9 And it came to pass that when Moses entered the tent, the pillar of cloud came down, and stood at the opening of the tent, —and spake with Moses.
Ary raha niditra tao amin’ ny lay Mosesy, dia nidina ny andri-rahona ka nijanona teo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny lay, ary Jehovah dia niresaka tamin’ i Mosesy.
10 And when all the people beheld the pillar of cloud, standing at the opening of the tent, then all the people rose up and bowed themselves down, every man at the entrance of his tent.
Ary hitan’ ny olona rehetra ny andri-rahona nijanona teo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny lay; dia nitsangana ny olona rehetra, ka samy niankohoka teo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny lainy avy.
11 Thus Yahweh used to speak unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend, —and when he returned unto the camp, his attendant Joshua son of Nun, a young man, moved not from the midst of the tent.
Ary Jehovah niteny nifanatrika tamin’ i Mosesy, tahaka ny olona miresaka amin’ ny sakaizany. Ary niverina nankeo amin’ ny toby izy; fa ny mpanompony, dia Josoa zatovo, zanak’ i Nona, tsy niala tamin’ ny lay.
12 Then said Moses, unto Yahweh, See! thou art saying unto me—Take up this people, and yet thou hast no let me know whom thou wilt send with me, —though thou thyself, didst say—I acknowledge thee by name, Yea, moreover, thou hast found favour in mine eyes.
Ary hoy Mosesy tamin’ i Jehovah: Indro fa Hianao milaza amiko hoe: Ento miakatra ity firenena ity, ary Hianao tsy mbola nampahafantatra ahy izay hirahinao hiaraka amiko; kanefa Hianao efa nilaza hoe: Mahalala anao tokoa Aho, ary efa nahita fitia eo imasoko koa ianao.
13 Now, therefore, if, I pray thee, I have found favour in thine eyes, let me know, I beseech thee, thy way, that I may acknowledge thee, to the intent I may find favour in thine eyes, —see thou, therefore, that this nation is thine own people.
Koa ankehitriny, raha nahita fitia eo imasonao aho, dia ampahafantaro ny lalanao hahalalako Anao, mba hahitako fitia eo imasonao; ary hevero fa olonao ity firenena ity.
14 So then he said, —Mine own presence, shall go on thus will I give thee rest.
Dia hoy Izy: Ny Tavako no handeha, dia hanome anao fitsaharana Aho.
15 And he said unto him, If thy presence is not going on, do not take us up from hence.
Fa hoy Mosesy taminy: Raha tsy handeha ny Tavanao, dia aza mitondra anay hiakatra hiala atỳ.
16 Whereby, indeed, shall it be known then that I have found favour in thine eyes, I, and thy people? Shall it not be, by thy going on with us? So shall we be more distinguished, I, and thy people, than any people that are on the face of the ground.
Fa inona anefa no hahafantarana fa nahita fitia eo imasonao izaho sy ny olonao? moa tsy amin’ ny handehananao miaraka aminay va? dia ho voavaka amin’ ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany izahay, dia izaho sy ny olonao.
17 Then said Yahweh unto Moses: Even this thing, which thou hast spoken, will I do—For thou hast found favour in mine eyes, And I have acknowledged thee by name.
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Izao zavatra nolazainao izao dia hataoko koa; fa nahita fitia eo imasoko ianao, ary mahalala anao tokoa Aho.
18 And he said, —Show me, I pray thee, thy glory.
Ary hoy Mosesy: Mba ampahitao ny voninahitrao aho.
19 And he said, —I, will cause all my goodness to pass before thee. And will proclaim myself by the name Yahweh, before thee, And will show favour, unto whom I may show favour, And will have compassion on whom I may have compassion.
Fa hoy kosa Jehovah: Izaho hampandalo ny fahatsarako rehetra eo anatrehanao ka hanonona ny anaran’ i Jehovah eo anatrehanao; fa hiantra izay hiantrako Aho, ary hamindra fo amin’ izay hamindrako fo.
20 But he said—Thou canst not see my face, For no son of earth can see me, and live
Ary hoy koa Izy: Tsy mahazo mahita ny tavako ianao; fa tsy misy olona mahita Ahy ka ho velona.
21 And Yahweh, said, Lo! a place near me, —So then thou shalt station thyself upon the rock:
Dia hoy Jehovah: Indro, misy fitoerana eto anilako; dia hijanona eo ambonin’ ny harambato ianao;
22 And it shall be while my glory passeth by, I will put thee in the cleft of the rock, —and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by:
koa raha mandalo ny voninahitro, dia hataoko eo an-tsefaky ny harambato ianao, ka hosaronako ny tanako ianao mandra-pandaloko.
23 Then will I take away my hand, and thou shalt see behind me, But, my face, must not be seen.
Dia hanaisotra ny tanako Aho, ka hahita ny vohoko ianao; fa ny tavako tsy ho hita.
