Exodus 24
1 He said to Moses, “Come up to the LORD, you, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship from a distance.
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Wo ne Aaron, Nadab, Abihu ne Israelfoɔ mpanimfoɔ aduɔson mforo mmra ha. Mo nyinaa, momma me ne mo ntam ntwe na monsom me.
2 Moses alone shall come near to the LORD, but they shall not come near. The people shall not go up with him.”
Mose nko ara na ɔbɛbɛn Awurade; na monkae nso sɛ, ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔn a wɔaka no twe bɛn bepɔ no koraa.”
3 Moses came and told the people all the LORD’s words, and all the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice, and said, “All the words which the LORD has spoken will we do.”
Mose kaa mmara a Awurade hyɛɛ no no nyinaa kyerɛɛ nnipa no ma wɔn nyinaa bɔ gyee so sɛ, “Yɛbɛdi ne nyinaa so.”
4 Moses wrote all the LORD’s words, then rose up early in the morning and built an altar at the base of the mountain, with twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel.
Mose twerɛɛ Awurade mmara no nyinaa guu hɔ. Adeɛ kyee anɔpa no, ɔsii afɔrebukyia wɔ bepɔ no ase. Ɔde adum dumienu twaa ho hyiaeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, na Israel mmusuakuo no yɛ dumienu.
5 He sent young men of the children of Israel, who offered burnt offerings and sacrificed peace offerings of cattle to the LORD.
Afei, ɔsomaa mmabunu a wɔwɔ wɔn mu no bi sɛ wɔnkɔbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ mma Awurade.
6 Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins, and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
Mose sɔnee mmoa no mogya no fa de guu nkankyee mu, ɛnna ɔtoo ɛfa a aka no petee afɔrebukyia no so.
7 He took the book of the covenant and read it in the hearing of the people, and they said, “We will do all that the LORD has said, and be obedient.”
Ɔkan nwoma a watwerɛ a ɛyɛ Apam Nwoma a Awurade akwankyerɛ ne ne mmara wɔ mu no kyerɛɛ nnipa no. Nnipa no bɔ gyee so bio sɛ, “Yɛhyɛ bɔ sɛ, yɛbɛdi mmara no nyinaa so.”
8 Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, “Look, this is the blood of the covenant, which the LORD has made with you concerning all these words.”
Afei, Mose de mogya a ɛwɔ nkankyee no mu no petee nnipa no so kaa sɛ, “Saa mogya yi hyɛ apam a mo ne Awurade apam ne mmara a ɔde ama mo no mu den.”
9 Then Moses, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up.
Afei Mose, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu ne Israelfoɔ mpanimfoɔ aduɔson no foro kɔɔ bepɔ no so.
10 They saw the God of Israel. Under his feet was like a paved work of sapphire stone, like the skies for clearness.
Wɔhunuu Israel Onyankopɔn. Na ne nan ntiasoɔ hyerɛn te sɛ aboɔdemmoɔ a ne hyerɛn te sɛ ɔsoro hyerɛn.
11 He didn’t lay his hand on the nobles of the children of Israel. They saw God, and ate and drank.
Ɛwom sɛ mpanimfoɔ no hunuu Onyankopɔn deɛ, nanso wansɛe wɔn. Nokorɛm, wɔn nyinaa bɔɔ mu didii wɔ Awurade anim.
12 The LORD said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain, and stay here, and I will give you the stone tablets with the law and the commands that I have written, that you may teach them.”
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Foro bra me nkyɛn wɔ bepɔ so ha na tena ha kɔsi sɛ mede mmaransɛm a matwerɛ agu ɛboɔ so no bɛma wo, na wonam so akyerɛkyerɛ nnipa no.”
13 Moses rose up with Joshua, his servant, and Moses went up onto God’s Mountain.
Enti, Mose ne ne ɔboafoɔ Yosua foro kɔɔ Onyankopɔn bepɔ no so.
14 He said to the elders, “Wait here for us, until we come again to you. Behold, Aaron and Hur are with you. Whoever is involved in a dispute can go to them.”
Ɔka kyerɛɛ mpanimfoɔ no sɛ, “Montena ha ntwɛn yɛn kɔsi sɛ yɛbɛba. Merekɔ yi, sɛ asɛm bi kyere mo so a, monka nkyerɛ Aaron ne Hur.”
15 Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.
Mose foro kɔɔ bepɔ no so hɔ na ɔyeraa wɔ omununkum mu.
16 The LORD’s glory settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. The seventh day he called to Moses out of the middle of the cloud.
Na Awurade animuonyam hyɛɛ Sinai bepɔ no so ma. Na omununkum sii bepɔ no so nnansia. Ne nnanson so no, ɔfrɛɛ Mose firii omununkum no mu.
17 The appearance of the LORD’s glory was like devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel.
Wɔn a wɔwɔ bepɔ no ase no hunuu anwanwadeɛ no. Na Awurade animuonyam a ɛwɔ bepɔ no so no te sɛ ogya a ɛrederɛ.
18 Moses entered into the middle of the cloud, and went up on the mountain; and Moses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights.
Na Mose yeraa wɔ bepɔ no so wɔ omununkum no mu. Ɔdii bepɔ no so adaduanan.
