< Exodus 32 >
1 [(Moses/I) stayed on top of the mountain a long time]. When the people realized that he/I was not returning quickly, they gathered near Aaron and said to him, “We do not know what has happened to that man Moses who brought us here out of Egypt. So quickly, make us ([an idol/a statue of a god]) who will lead us!”
Be Mousese da Sainai Goumia eso bagohame esalu. Isala: ili dunu da amo hou ba: beba: le, ilia Elanema misini amane sia: dasu, “Amo dunu Mousese, e da nini Idibidi sogega gadili bisili oule misi. Adi hou da ema doaga: bela: ? Amaiba: le, ‘gode’ liligi ninima bisili masunusa: hamoma!”
2 Aaron replied to them, “All right, [I will do that, but] tell your wives and your sons and your daughters to take off all their gold earrings and bring them to me.”
Elane da ilima amane sia: i, “Gouli gegagulu bagedigi amo da dilia uda, egefe amola didiwi ilia gega sali, amo fadegale, nama gaguli misa.”
3 So the people did that. They took off all their gold earrings and brought them to Aaron.
Amalalu, dunu huluane da ilia gouli gegagulu bagedigi gasisalasu huluane fadegale, Elanema gaguli misi.
4 He took all those gold earrings and melted them in a fire. He [poured the gold into a mold and] made a statue that looked like a young bull. The people saw it and said, “This is the god of us Israeli people! This is the one who brought us up from the land of Egypt!”
E da amo liligi lale, laluga daeane amola osobo dogone, bulamagau ea agoaila hamone, amo ganodini gouli daei sogadigili, gouli bulamagau gawali hamoi. Dunu huluane da hahawane amane sia: i, “Isala: ili! Amo da ninia ‘gode’. E da nini Idibidi soge amoga ga masa: ne bisili oule asi.
5 When Aaron saw [what was happening], he built an altar in front of the [statue of the] young bull. Then he announced, “Tomorrow we will have a festival to honor Yahweh!”
Amalalu, Elane da gouli bulamagau mano gawali amo ea ba: le gaidiga oloda hamoi. E amane sia: i, “Aya ninia da gilisisu bagade Hina Godema nodoma: ne hamomu.”
6 So the people got up early the next morning and brought animals to kill and burn as sacrifices on the altar. They also brought sacrifices to maintain fellowship with Yahweh. Then they sat down to eat and drink [wine]. Then they got up and started dancing in a very immoral way.
Hahabedafa ilia ohe amo gobele salasu amola eno olofoma: ne iasu manusa: amola hamoma: ne gaguli misi. Isala: ili dunu da lolo nasu bagade hamoi. Amoga ilia waini hano bagade mai, wadela: i hou amola wadela: i uda adole lasu hou bagade hamosu.
7 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Go back down from the mountain, because your people, the ones that you brought up here from Egypt, have [already] (become very depraved/wicked)!
Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i, “Hadiga! Hedolo gudu sa: ima! Dia fi amo di da Idibidiga fisili masa: ne gadili oule asi, amo da wadela: i hou hamoi dagoi amola ilia da Na yolesi dagoi.
8 They have already (left the road that I showed them/stopped obeying me)! They have made [a statue of] a young bull from melted gold. They have worshiped it and offered sacrifices to it. And they are saying, ‘This is the god of us Israeli people! This is the one who brought us up from Egypt!’”
Na da hou amo ilia da hamoma: ne ilima sia: i, amo ilia da fisili dafai dagoi. Ilia da bulamagau mano gawali gouli daeane amoga hamone, amoma nodone sia: ne gadoi amola gobele salasu hamoi dagoi. Ilia da amo da ilia ‘gode’, e da ili Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne asunasi amo sia: daha.
9 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “I have seen that these people are very stubborn.
Ilia dogo da igi agoane gawamaga: i dagoi amo Na dawa:
10 I am very angry with them, and so I am going to get rid of them. Do not try to stop me! Then I will cause you and your descendants to become a great nation.”
Amaiba: le, Na logo mae damuma. Na da amo dunu fi ilima ougi bagadeba: le, ili huluane gugunufinisimu. Amasea, Na da di amola digaga fi amoga fifi asi bagade hamomu.
11 But Moses/I pleaded with his/my God, Yahweh, and said, “Yahweh, (you should not be very angry with your people!/why are you so angry with your people [RHQ]?) These are the people whom you rescued from Egypt with very great power [MTY, DOU]!
Be Mousese da Hina Godema ha: giwane edegei. E amane sia: i, “Hina Gode! Di da Dia gasa bagade amoga dia fi Idibidi sogega esalu amo gaga: le, fisili masa: ne asunasili, guiguda: oule misi. Ilima baligiliwane mae ougima!
12 Do not [do anything that would] allow the people of Egypt to say, ‘Their god led them out from our country, but [he did that] only [because he wanted] to kill them in the mountains and get rid of them completely [RHQ]!’ Stop being so angry! (Change your mind/Do not do what you have told me that you will do)! Do not do to your people this terrible thing [that you have just said that you will do]
Idibidi dunu da Di da dia fi amo goumia dafawanedafa medole legemusa: gadili oule misi, amo ilia sia: sa: besa: le, Dia ougi fisima. Dia asigi dawa: su sinidigili, Dia fi mae gugunufinisima!
13 Think about your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. You solemnly promised them, ‘I will enable you to have as many descendants as there are stars in the sky.’ You said to them, ‘I will give to your descendants all the land that I am promising to give them. It will be their land forever.’”
Dia hawa: hamosu dunu A: ibalaha: me, Aisage amola Ya: igobe bu dawa: ma! Di da ilima iligaga fi ilia idi da gasumuni muagado gala amo defele ilima ima: ne sia: i, amola Ga: ina: ne soge ilia amo ganodini eso huluane esalalaloma: ne ilima ima: ne ilegele sia: i. Amo Di bu dawa: ma!”
14 So Yahweh changed his mind. He did not do to his people the terrible thing that he said he would do.
Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da Ea asigi dawa: su afadenene, Ea fi dunu Ea musa: gugunufinisimu sia: i hame hamoi.
15 Moses/I turned away from God and went down the mountain, carrying in his hands the two stone slabs on which Yahweh had engraved his commandments. He had written on both sides of the slabs.
Mousese da igi gasui amo da: iya Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i da la: di la: di dedei, amo goumiba: le gaguli asili gudu sa: i.
16 God [himself] had made the slabs, and he was the one who had engraved the commandments on them.
Gode Hi da amo igi gasui hamoi amola Hi da amo da: iya Ea hamoma: ne sia: i dedei.
17 Joshua heard the very loud noise of the people shouting. So when he and I got near the camp, Joshua said, “There is a noise in the camp that sounds like [the noise of] a battle!”
Yosiua da Isala: ili dunu ilia welalu nabaloba, Mousesema amane sia: i, “Na da uda ulisalasu amola hududusu abula diasu gilisisu ganodini naba.”
18 But Moses/I replied, [“No], that is not the shouting that people do when they have won a victory or when they have been defeated [in a battle] What I hear is the sound of [loud] singing!”
Be Mousese da bu adole i, “Amo ea nabe da nimi baligisu o digini hobeasu agoane hame naba. Amo da gesami hea: su agoane naba.”
19 As soon as Moses/I came close to the camp and saw the statue of the young bull and saw the people dancing, he/I became extremely angry. He/I threw the stone tablets that he/I was carrying down onto the ground, there at the base of the mountain.
Mousese da abula diasu gilisisu gadenene doaga: loba, e da gouli bulamagau mano gawali amola dunu gosa: lalebe ba: i. Amalalu, e da ougi bagade ba: i. Amogai, goumi ea bai amogai, e da igi gasui aduna gaguli ahoanebe amo gisalu gala: beba: le, igi gasui da goudana asi ba: i.
20 Then he/I took the statue of the young bull that they had made and melted it in the fire. [When it cooled], he/I ground it into [fine] powder. Then he/I mixed the powder with water and forced the Israeli people to drink it.
E da gouli bulamagau mano gawali ilia hamoi, amo lale, daeane, goudane su agoane hamone amola hano gilisili bibiagoi. Amalalu, e da Isala: ili dunu amo moma: ne logei.
21 Then he/I said to Aaron, “What did these people do to you, with the result that you have made them commit such a terrible sin?”
E da Elanema amane sia: i, “Dia hamobeba: le, amo dunu da wadela: i hou bagadedafa hamoi dagoi. Amo hamoma: ne, ilia da dima adi hamobela: ?”
22 Aaron replied, “Please do not be angry with me, sir. You know that these people are very determined to do evil things.
Elane da bu adole i, “Nama mae ougima! Amo dunu da wadela: i hou hamomusa: bagade hanai gala. Amo di dawa: !
23 They said to me, ‘As for that man Moses, the one who brought us up here from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him. So make for us an idol that will lead us!’
Ilia da nama amane sia: i, ‘Mousese da nini Idibidi sogega gadili oule misi. Be ema hou doaga: i ninia hame dawa: Amaiba: le, ‘gode’ liligi nini bisimusa: hamoma.’
24 So I said to them, ‘Everyone who is wearing [gold earrings] should take them off.’ So they [took them off and] gave them to me. I threw them into the fire, and out came this statue of a young bull!”
Na da ilima ilia gouli noga: i liligi amo nama gaguli misa: ne sia: i. Amalalu, nowa da amai galea da amo fadegale nama i. Na da amo liligi laluga ha: digiloba, amo gouli bulamagau mano gawali da udigili gadili misi!”
25 Moses/I saw that Aaron had allowed the people to become completely out of control and to do things that would make their enemies think the Israeli people were foolish.
Mousese da Elane ba: loba, Elane da dunu huluane ilia da hina: sia: mae nabawane ilima ha lai dunu ba: ma: ne gagaoui agoane hamoi, Mousese da amo ba: i dagoi.
26 So he/I stood at the entrance to the camp and shouted, “Everyone who is loyal to Yahweh should come [closer] to me!” So the descendants of Levi gathered around him/me.
Amaiba: le, e da abula diasu gilisisu amo logo holeiga lelu, amane wei, “Nowa da Hina Godemagale fa: no bobogemusa: dawa: sea, guiguda: misa!” Amalalu, Lifai fi dunu huluane da ema misi.
27 Then he/I said to them, “Yahweh, the God of us Israeli people, commands that every one of you should fasten your sword to your side, and then go through the camp from this entrance to the other one, and kill some of your relatives and your companions and your neighbors.”
Mousese da ilima amane sia: i, “Isala: ili Hina Gode da dilima amane sia: sa, ‘Dilia huluane dilia gegesu gobihei bagade amo afoga salawane masa. Abula diasu gilisisu amo ganodini logo holei la: di amoga logo holei eno la: diga asili, dilia olalali amola dilia na: iyado ili medole legema.’”
28 The descendants of Levi did what Moses/I told them to do, and they killed 3,000 men on that day.
Lifai fi dunu da Mousese ea sia: nabawane hamoi. Amo esoga ilia da dunu 3000 agoane medole legei.
29 Moses/I said to the descendants of Levi, “Today you have dedicated yourselves to serving Yahweh by (killing/not sparing) [even] your own sons and brothers, and as a result Yahweh will bless you.”
Mousese da Lifai fi dunuma amane sia: i, “Wali eso dilisu da dilia Hina Godema gobele salasu hawa: hamomusa: ilegei dagoi. Dilia da dilia egefelali amola olalali fanelegei dagoiba: le, amo hamoi dagoi amola Hina Gode Ea hahawane fidisu lai dagoi.”
30 The next day, Moses/I said to the people, “You have committed a terrible sin. But I will now climb up the mountain again to talk with Yahweh. Perhaps I can [persuade him] to forgive you for sinning [like this].”
Aya, Mousese da Isala: ili dunuma amane sia: i, “Dilia da wadela: i hou bagadedafa hamoi dagoi. Be na da wali Hina Gode Ea goumi amoga bu heda: mu. Amabela: ? Na sia: beba: le, E da dilia hou gogolema: ne olofoma: bela: ?”
31 So Moses/I went back up the mountain and said to Yahweh, “I am sorry to admit that these people have committed a terrible sin. They have made for themselves a gold idol and have worshiped it.
Amalalu, Mousese da Hina Godema bu asili, Ema amane sia: i, “Amo dunu da wadela: i hou bagade hamoi dagoi. Ilia da ‘gode’ liligi gouliga hamone, ema nodone sia: ne gadosu.
32 But now I ask you to please forgive them for having sinned. If you will not forgive them, then erase my name from the book in which you have written [the names of your people].”
Ilia wadela: i hou Di gogolema: ne olofoma: ne, na da Dima edegesa. Be hamedei galea, Buga amo ganodini Di da Dia fi dio dedei, amoga na dio fadegama.”
33 But Yahweh said to Moses/me, “It is [only] those who have sinned against me whose names I will erase from that book.
Hina Gode da bu adole i, “Nowa dunu da Nama wadela: le hamoi, amo fawane Na da ilia dio Na Bugaga dedei fadegamu.
34 Now you go back down and lead the [Israeli] people to the place that I told you about. Keep in mind that my angel will go in front of you. But, at the time that I determine, I will punish them for their sin.”
Be wali masa! Di bisili asili, Na fi dunu amo soge Na dima adoi, amoga oule masa. Mae gogolema! Na a: igele dunu da logo olelemusa: , dili bisili masunu. Be eso enoga, amo dunu ilia da wadela: i hou hamosea, Na da ilima se nabasu imunu.”
35 [Later] Yahweh caused a plague to strike the people because they had told Aaron to make the gold [statue of a] young bull.
Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da Isala: ili dunuma olo bagade iasi. Bai ilia da gasa fili logebeba: le, Elane da gouli bulamagau mano gawali hamoi dagoi.
