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.
Depois disse a Moysés: Sobe ao Senhor, tu e Aarão, Nadab e Abihu, e setenta dos anciãos d'Israel; e inclinae-vos de longe.
2 Moses alone may come near to me. The others must not come near, nor may the people come up with him.”
E Moysés só se chegará ao Senhor; mas elles não se cheguem, nem o povo suba com elle.
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.”
Vindo pois Moysés, e contando ao povo todas as palavras do Senhor, e todos os estatutos, então o povo respondeu a uma voz, e disseram: Todas as palavras, que o Senhor tem fallado, faremos.
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.
E Moysés escreveu todas as palavras do Senhor, e levantou-se pela manhã de madrugada, e edificou um altar ao pé do monte, e doze monumentos, segundo as doze tribus d'Israel;
5 He sent some Israelite young men to offer burnt offerings and sacrifice fellowship offerings of oxen to Yahweh.
E enviou os mancebos dos filhos d'Israel, os quaes offereceram holocaustos, e sacrificaram ao Senhor sacrificios pacificos de bezerros.
6 Moses took half of the blood and put it into basins; he sprinkled the other half onto the altar.
E Moysés tomou a metade do sangue, e a poz em bacias; e a outra metade do sangue espargiu sobre o altar.
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.”
E tomou o livro do concerto e o leu aos ouvidos do povo, e elles disseram: Tudo o que o Senhor tem fallado faremos, e obedeceremos.
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.”
Então tomou Moysés aquelle sangue, e espargiu-o sobre o povo, e disse: Eis-aqui o sangue do concerto que o Senhor tem feito comvosco sobre todas estas palavras.
9 Then Moses, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and seventy of Israel's elders went up the mountain.
E subiram Moysés e Aarão, Nadab e Abihu, e setenta dos anciãos d'Isrel,
10 They saw the God of Israel. Under his feet there was a pavement made of sapphire stone, as clear as the sky itself.
E viram o Deus d'Israel, e debaixo de seus pés havia como uma obra de pedra de saphira, e como o parecer do céu na sua claridade.
11 God did not lay a hand on the Israelite leaders. They saw God, and they ate and drank.
Porém não estendeu a sua mão sobre os escolhidos dos filhos d'Israel, mas viram a Deus, e comeram e beberam.
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.”
Então disse o Senhor a Moysés: Sobe a mim ao monte, e fica lá: e dar-te-hei taboas de pedra, e a lei, e os mandamentos que tenho escripto, para os ensinar.
13 So Moses set out with his assistant Joshua and went up the mountain of God.
E levantou-se Moysés com Josué seu servidor; e subiu Moysés ao monte de Deus,
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.”
E disse aos anciãos: Esperae-nos aqui, até que tornemos a vós: e eis que Aarão e Hur ficam comvosco; quem tiver algum negocio, se chegará a elles.
15 So Moses went up the mountain, and the cloud covered it.
E, subindo Moysés ao monte, a nuvem cobriu o monte.
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.
E habitava a gloria do Senhor sobre o monte de Sinai, e a nuvem o cobriu por seis dias: e ao setimo dia chamou a Moysés do meio da nuvem.
17 The appearance of Yahweh's glory was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the Israelites.
E o parecer da gloria do Senhor era como um fogo consumidor no cume do monte, aos olhos dos filhos d'Israel.
18 Moses entered the cloud and went up the mountain. He was up the mountain for forty days and forty nights.
E Moysés entrou no meio da nuvem, depois que subiu ao monte: e Moysés esteve no monte quarenta dias e quarenta noites.
