Exodus 24
1 Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Come up to me—you, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and seventy of Israel's elders, and worship me at a distance.
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ambata, ũũke kũrĩ Jehova, wee na Harũni, na Nadabu, na Abihu, na athuuri mĩrongo mũgwanja a Isiraeli, mũinamĩrĩre mũhooe mũrĩ haraaya,
2 Moses alone may come near to me. The others must not come near, nor may the people come up with him.”
no Musa wiki ũgaakuhĩrĩria Jehova; acio angĩ matigooke hakuhĩ. Nao andũ acio angĩ a Isiraeli matikambate nawe.”
3 Moses went and told the people all of Yahweh's words and decrees. All the people answered with one voice and said, “We will do all the words that Yahweh has said.”
Nake Musa agĩthiĩ na akĩĩra andũ ciugo ciothe cia Jehova na mawatho make, nao andũ magĩĩtĩkanĩria na mũgambo ũmwe, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa wothe Jehova oigĩte, nĩtũgwĩka.”
4 Then Moses wrote down all of Yahweh's words. Early in the morning, Moses built an altar at the foot of the mountain and arranged twelve stone pillars, so that the stones would represent the twelve tribes of Israel.
Nake Musa akĩandĩka ũhoro wothe ũrĩa Jehova aarĩtie. Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ agĩũkĩra rũciinĩ tene, agĩaka kĩgongona magũrũ-inĩ ma kĩrĩma, na akĩrũgamia itugĩ ikũmi na igĩrĩ cia mahiga irũgamĩrĩire mĩhĩrĩga ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ ya Isiraeli.
5 He sent some Israelite young men to offer burnt offerings and sacrifice fellowship offerings of oxen to Yahweh.
Ningĩ agĩtũma aanake amwe a Isiraeli, nao makĩruta magongona ma njino, na magĩthĩnja tũtegwa tũrĩ igongona rĩa ũiguano kũrĩ Jehova.
6 Moses took half of the blood and put it into basins; he sprinkled the other half onto the altar.
Musa akĩoya nuthu ya thakame yatuo akĩmĩĩkĩra mbakũri-inĩ, na nuthu ĩrĩa ĩngĩ akĩmĩminjaminjĩria kĩgongona kĩu.
7 He took the book of the Covenant and read it aloud to the people. They said, “We will do all that Yahweh has spoken. We will be obedient.”
Ningĩ akĩoya Ibuku rĩa Kĩrĩkanĩro, na akĩrĩthomera andũ. Nao andũ magĩĩtĩkanĩria, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũgwĩka ũrĩa wothe Jehova oigĩte; nĩtũgwathĩka.”
8 Then Moses took the blood and sprinkled it onto the people. He said, “This is the blood of the covenant that Yahweh has made with you by giving you this promise with all these words.”
Musa agĩcooka akĩoya thakame ĩyo, akĩmĩminjaminjĩria andũ, na akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ĩno nĩ thakame ya kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa Jehova aarĩkanĩire na inyuĩ kũringana na ciugo ici ciothe.”
9 Then Moses, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and seventy of Israel's elders went up the mountain.
Musa na Harũni, na Nadabu na Abihu hamwe na athuuri acio mĩrongo mũgwanja a Isiraeli makĩambata,
10 They saw the God of Israel. Under his feet there was a pavement made of sapphire stone, as clear as the sky itself.
na makĩona Ngai wa Isiraeli. Rungu rwa makinya make haarĩ handũ haakĩtwo wega na mahiga ma yakuti ya bururu, matherete o ta igũrũ rĩo rĩene.
11 God did not lay a hand on the Israelite leaders. They saw God, and they ate and drank.
No Jehova ndaigana kũhũũra atongoria acio a Isiraeli; nĩmoonire Ngai, na makĩrĩa na makĩnyua.
12 Yahweh said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain and stay there. I will give you the tablets of stone and the law and commandments that I have written, so that you may teach them.”
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ambata, ũũke kũrĩ niĩ kĩrĩma igũrũ, na ũikare ho, na nĩngũcooka ngũnengere ihengere cia mahiga, irĩ na maandĩko ma watho na maathani marĩa nyandĩkĩte nĩguo ũmarutage andũ a Isiraeli.”
13 So Moses set out with his assistant Joshua and went up the mountain of God.
Ningĩ Musa akiumagara marĩ na mũteithĩrĩria wake Joshua, nake Musa akĩambata kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Ngai.
14 Moses had said to the elders, “Stay here and wait for us until we come to you. Aaron and Hur are with you. If anyone has a dispute, let him go to them.”
Akĩĩra athuuri acio atĩrĩ, “Twetererei haha nginya rĩrĩa tũgaacooka. Harũni na Huri marĩ hamwe na inyuĩ, mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ũngĩgĩa na ciira nĩathiiage kũrĩ o.”
15 So Moses went up the mountain, and the cloud covered it.
Rĩrĩa Musa aambatire kĩrĩma-inĩ, itu rĩkĩhumbĩra kĩrĩma,
16 Yahweh's glory settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days. On the seventh day he called to Moses from within the cloud.
naguo riiri wa Jehova ũgĩikara igũrũ rĩa Kĩrĩma gĩa Sinai. Kĩrĩma gĩkĩhumbĩrwo nĩ itu rĩu mĩthenya ĩtandatũ, na mũthenya wa mũgwanja Jehova agĩĩta Musa arĩ itu-inĩ rĩu.
17 The appearance of Yahweh's glory was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the Israelites.
andũ a Isiraeli moonaga riiri wa Jehova ũtariĩ ta mwaki wa kũniinana ũrĩ kĩrĩma igũrũ.
18 Moses entered the cloud and went up the mountain. He was up the mountain for forty days and forty nights.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Musa agĩtoonya itu-inĩ o akĩambataga kĩrĩma. Agĩikara kũu kĩrĩma-inĩ matukũ mĩrongo ĩna, ũtukũ na mũthenya.
