Exodus 24
1 He said to Moses, “Come up to Yahweh, you, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship from a distance.
Ipapo akati kuna Mozisi, “Kwira kuna Jehovha, iwe naAroni, Nadhabhi naAbhihu, navakuru vavaIsraeri makumi manomwe. Munamate muri chinhambwe,
2 Moses alone shall come near to Yahweh, but they shall not come near. The people shall not go up with him.”
asi Mozisi oga ndiye anofanira kuswedera kuna Jehovha; vamwe havafaniri kuswedera pedyo. Uye vanhu havangakwiri naye.”
3 Moses came and told the people all Yahweh’s words, and all the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice, and said, “All the words which Yahweh has spoken will we do.”
Mozisi akati aenda kundoudza vanhu mashoko ose nemirayiro yose yaJehovha, ivo vakati nenzwi rimwe chete, “Tichaita zvinhu zvose zvakarehwa naJehovha.”
4 Moses wrote all Yahweh’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.
Ipapo Mozisi akanyora zvinhu zvose zvakanga zvarehwa naJehovha. Akamuka mangwana acho mangwanani akavaka aritari mujinga megomo uye akamisa mbiru dzamabwe gumi nembiri dzichimirira marudzi gumi namaviri avaIsraeri.
5 He sent young men of the children of Israel, who offered burnt offerings and sacrificed peace offerings of cattle to Yahweh.
Ipapo akatuma majaya avaIsraeri, uye vakapa zvipiriso zvinopiswa uye vakabayira hando duku sezvipiriso zvokuwadzana kuna Jehovha.
6 Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins, and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
Mozisi akatora hafu yeropa akariisa mumidziyo, uye imwe hafu akaisasa paaritari.
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 Yahweh has said, and be obedient.”
Ipapo akatora Bhuku reSungano akariverengera vanhu. Ivo vakati, “Tichaita zvinhu zvose zvakarehwa naJehovha; tichazviteerera.”
8 Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, “Look, this is the blood of the covenant, which Yahweh has made with you concerning all these words.”
Ipapo Mozisi akatora ropa, akarisasa pamusoro pavanhu uye akati, “Iri iropa resungano yaitwa naJehovha nemi maererano namashoko aya ose.”
9 Then Moses, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up.
Mozisi naAroni, Nadhabhi naAbhihu uye navakuru makumi manomwe vavaIsraeri vakakwira
10 They saw the God of Israel. Under his feet was like a paved work of sapphire stone, like the skies for clearness.
uye vakaona Mwari waIsraeri. Pasi petsoka dzake pakanga pane chimwe chinhu chakaita sechivakwa chesafire, chakanga chichionekwa sedenga pacharo.
11 He didn’t lay his hand on the nobles of the children of Israel. They saw God, and ate and drank.
Asi Mwari haana kusimudza ruoko rwake pamusoro pavatungamiri vavaIsraeri ava; vakaona Mwari, uye vakadya vakanwa.
12 Yahweh 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.”
Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi, “Kwira kuno kwandiri pamusoro pegomo ugare pano, ndigokupa mahwendefa amabwe, ane mirayiro nemitemo zvandanyora kuti varayirwe.”
13 Moses rose up with Joshua, his servant, and Moses went up onto God’s Mountain.
Ipapo Mozisi akasimuka naJoshua mubatsiri wake, uye Mozisi akakwira mugomo raMwari.
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.”
Akati kuvakuru, “Timirirei pano kusvikira tadzoka kwamuri. Aroni naHuri vanemi, uye ani naani zvake anopesana nomumwe anogona kuenda kwavari.”
15 Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.
Mozisi akati akwira mugomo, gore rakarifukidza,
16 Yahweh’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.
uye kubwinya kwaJehovha kwakagara pamusoro peGomo reSinai. Gore rakafukidza gomo iro kwamazuva matanhatu, uye pazuva rechinomwe, Jehovha akadana Mozisi ari mukati megore.
17 The appearance of Yahweh’s glory was like devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel.
KuvaIsraeri, kubwinya kwaJehovha kwairatidzika somoto unoparadza uri pamusoro pegomo.
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.
Ipapo akapinda mugore paakanga achikwira mugomo. Uye akagara mugomo kwamazuva makumi mana nousiku huna makumi mana.
