Exodus 24
1 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Come to me, up [on top of this mountain], you and Aaron and [his sons] Nadab and Abihu. Also [take along] 70 of the Israeli elders/leaders. While you are still some distance [from the top of the mountain], prostrate yourselves [on the ground] and worship me.
Ní ìgbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Gòkè tọ Olúwa wá, ìwọ àti Aaroni, Nadabu àti Abihu àti àádọ́rin àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli. Ẹ̀yin kì ó sìn ni òkèèrè réré.
2 Moses, [I will allow] you alone to come near to me. The others must not come near, and the [rest of the] people must not come up the mountain.”
Ṣùgbọ́n Mose nìkan ṣoṣo ni yóò súnmọ́ Olúwa; àwọn tókù kò gbọdọ̀ súnmọ́ tòsí ibẹ̀. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ènìyàn kò gbọdọ̀ gòkè wá pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.”
3 Moses/I went and told the people everything that Yahweh had said and all that he had commanded. The people all replied together, saying, “We will do everything that Yahweh has told us [to do].”
Nígbà ti Mose lọ láti sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn, gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ àti òfin Olúwa, wọ́n wí ní ohùn kan pé, “Gbogbo ohun ti Olúwa wí ni àwa yóò ṣe.”
4 Then Moses/I wrote down everything that Yahweh had commanded. Early the next morning Moses/I built a [stone] altar. He/I also set up twelve stones, one for each of the Israeli tribes.
Nígbà náà ni Mose kọ gbogbo ohun tí Olúwa sọ sílẹ̀. Ó dìde ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, ó sì mọ pẹpẹ ni ẹsẹ̀ òkè náà. Ó ṣe ọ̀wọ́n òkúta méjìlá. Èyí ti ó dúró fún àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli méjìlá.
5 He/I also selected some young men. They burned sacrifices to Yahweh and they also sacrificed some cattle [that they did not burn completely], for the purpose of maintaining fellowship with Yahweh.
Nígbà náà ni ó rán àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin Israẹli, wọ́n sì rú ẹbọ sísun, wọ́n fi ọ̀dọ́ màlúù rú ẹbọ àlàáfíà si Olúwa.
6 Moses/I took half of the blood of the animals that were slaughtered and put it in bowls. The other half of the blood [he/I] threw/splashed against the altar.
Mose bu ìlàjì ẹ̀jẹ̀ ẹran sínú abọ́, ó sì fi ìlàjì tókù wọn ara pẹpẹ.
7 Then he/I took the scroll on which he/I had written [everything that Yahweh had commanded in] the agreement that he had made, and he/I read it [aloud], while all the people were listening. Then all the people said, “We will do all that Yahweh has told us to do. We will obey [everything].”
Nígbà náà ni ó sì mú ìwé májẹ̀mú, ó sì kà á sí àwọn ènìyàn. Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Àwa yóò ṣe gbogbo ohun tí Olúwa wí. Àwa yóò sì gbọ́rọ̀.”
8 Then Moses/I took the blood [that was in the bowls] and threw/splashed it on the people. He/I said, “This is the blood [that (confirms/puts into effect)] the agreement that Yahweh made with you when he gave you all these commands.”
Nígbà náà ni Mose gbé ẹ̀jẹ̀, ó sì wọn sí àwọn ènìyàn náà lára pé, “Èyí ni ẹ̀jẹ̀ májẹ̀mú tí Olúwa ti ṣe pẹ̀lú yín ni ìbámu pẹ̀lú àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí.”
9 Then Moses/I, along with Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and the 70 Israeli elders/leaders, went up [the mountain],
Mose àti Aaroni, Nadabu àti Abihu àti àádọ́rin àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli gòkè lọ.
10 and they/we saw God, the one whom the Israeli people worship. Under his feet was something like a pavement [made of expensive blue stones called] sapphires. They were as clear as the sky is [when there are no clouds].
Wọ́n sì rí Ọlọ́run Israẹli. Ní abẹ́ ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ ni ohun kan bí i pèpéle ti a fi òkúta safire ṣe wà. Èyí ti ó mọ́ nigínnigín bí àwọ̀ sánmọ̀ fúnra rẹ̀.
11 God did not harm [MTY] those Israeli elders/leaders [because of their having seen him]. They saw God, and they ate and drank together! [Then we all went back down the mountain].
Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run kò gbé ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sókè sí àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli wọ̀nyí; wọ́n ri Ọlọ́run, wọ́n jẹ, wọ́n sì mu.
12 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Come up to me [again] on [top of this] mountain. While you are here, I will give you [two] stone slabs on which I have written all the laws [DOU] that I have given to you to instruct/teach [the people].”
Olúwa sì sọ fún Mose pé, “Gòkè wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi, kí o sì dúró níhìn-ín. Èmi yóò sì fún ọ ní wàláà òkúta pẹ̀lú òfin àti ìlànà tí mo ti kọ sílẹ̀ fún ìtọ́sọ́nà wọn.”
13 So Moses/I told the elders, “Stay here [with the other people] until we return! Do not forget that Aaron and Hur will be with you. So if anyone has a dispute [while I am gone], he can go to those two men.” Then Moses/I went with his/my servant Joshua [part of the way] up the mountain that [was dedicated to] God.
Nígbà náà ni Mose jáde lọ pẹ̀lú Joṣua arákùnrin rẹ̀. Mose lọ sí orí òkè Ọlọ́run.
Ó sì wí fún àwọn àgbàgbà pé, “Ẹ dúró dè wá níhìn-ín yìí, títí àwa yóò fi tún padà tọ̀ yín wá, sì kíyèsi i, Aaroni àti Huri ń bẹ pẹ̀lú yín, bí ẹnìkan bá ni ọ̀ràn kan, kí ó tọ̀ wọ́n lọ.”
15 Then Moses/I went the [rest of the way] up the mountain. A cloud covered the mountain.
Nígbà tí Mose gun orí òkè lọ, ìkùùkuu bo orí òkè náà.
16 The (glory/brilliant light) of Yahweh came down on the mountain and covered it for six days. On the seventh day, Yahweh called to Moses/me from the middle of the cloud.
Ògo Olúwa sì wà ní orí òkè Sinai. Ìkùùkuu bo orí òkè náà fún ọjọ́ mẹ́fà, ni ọjọ́ keje ni Olúwa kọ sí Mose láti inú ìkùùkuu náà wá.
17 When the Israeli people [looked at] the top of the mountain, the glory of Yahweh was like a big fire that was burning [there].
Ni ojú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ògo Olúwa náà dàbí iná ajónirun ni orí òkè.
18 Moses/I went into the cloud on top of the mountain. He/I was there for 40 days and nights.
Nígbà náà ni Mose wọ inú ìkùùkuu náà bí ó ti ń lọ ní orí òkè. Ó sì wà ni orí òkè náà ni ogójì ọ̀sán àti ogójì òru.
