Exodus 19
1 In the third month of the going out of the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, in this day they have come into the wilderness of Sinai,
Nan twazyèm mwa apre fis Israël yo te soti nan peyi Égypte la, nan jou sa a menm, yo te vin antre nan dezè Sinaï a.
2 and they journey from Rephidim, and enter the wilderness of Sinai, and encamp in the wilderness; and Israel encampeth there before the mount.
Lè yo te pati soti Rephidim, yo te vini nan dezè Sinaï a. Yo te fè kan nan dezè a. Se la Israël te fè kan devan mòn lan.
3 And Moses hath gone up unto God, and Jehovah calleth unto him out of the mount, saying, 'Thus dost thou say to the house of Jacob, and declare to the sons of Israel,
Moïse te monte vè Bondye. SENYÈ a te rele li soti nan mòn nan. Li te di: “Konsa ou va pale ak lakay Jacob la pou di fis Israël yo:
4 Ye — ye have seen that which I have done to the Egyptians, and I bear you on eagles' wings, and bring you in unto Myself.
‘Nou menm, nou te wè sa ke Mwen te fè Ejipsyen yo, jan Mwen te pote nou sou zèl èg yo, e te mennen nou kote Mwen menm.
5 'And now, if ye really hearken to My voice, then ye have kept My covenant, and been to Me a peculiar treasure more than all the peoples, for all the earth [is] Mine;
Alò, koulye a, si nou obeyi vwa Mwen, e kenbe akò Mwen, alò nou va pwòp posesyon pa M pami tout pèp yo. Paske tout latè se pou Mwen.
6 and ye — ye are to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation: these [are] the words which thou dost speak unto the sons of Israel.'
Konsa, nou va pou Mwen, yon wayòm prèt yo, e yon nasyon ki sen.’ Sa yo se pawòl ke ou va pale a fis Israël yo.”
7 And Moses cometh, and calleth for the elders of the people, and setteth before them all these words which Jehovah hath commanded him;
Se konsa Moïse te vini, e te rele ansyen pami pèp yo. Konsa, li te plase devan yo tout pawòl sa yo ke SENYÈ a te kòmande li.
8 and all the people answer together and say, 'All that Jehovah hath spoken we do;' and Moses returneth the words of the people unto Jehovah.
Tout pèp la te reponn ansanm. Yo te di: “Tout sa ke SENYÈ a te pale yo, nou va fè yo!” Epi Moïse te mennen retounen tout pawòl a pèp yo devan SENYÈ a.
9 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Lo, I am coming unto thee in the thickness of the cloud, so that the people hear in My speaking with thee, and also believe in thee to the age;' and Moses declareth the words of the people unto Jehovah.
SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Gade byen, Mwen va vini kote ou nan yon nwaj byen fonse, pou pèp la kapab tande lè M pale avèk ou, e pou yo kapab kwè nan ou pou tout tan.” Alò, Moïse te di SENYÈ a pawòl a pèp la.
10 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Go unto the people; and thou hast sanctified them to-day and to-morrow, and they have washed their garments,
SENYÈ a anplis te di a Moïse: “Ale vè pèp la, konsakre yo jodi a avèk demen, e kite yo lave vètman yo;
11 and have been prepared for the third day; for on the third day doth Jehovah come down before the eyes of all the people, on mount Sinai.
epi kite yo fin prepare pou twazyèm jou a, paske nan twazyèm jou a SENYÈ a va vin desann sou Mòn Sinaï a nan zye a tout pèp la.
12 'And thou hast made a border [for] the people round about, saying, Take heed to yourselves, going up into the mount, or coming against its extremity; whoever is coming against the mount is certainly put to death;
“Ou va fè bòn limit pou pèp toutotou yo. Ou va di yo: ‘Gade byen pou nou pa monte sou mòn nan, ni touche rebò li. Nenpòt moun ki touche mòn nan va anverite mete a lanmò.
13 a hand cometh not against him, for he is certainly stoned or shot through, whether beast or man it liveth not; in the drawing out of the jubilee cornet they go up into the mount.'
Nanpwen men k ap mete sou moun sa a, men li va anverite lapide oswa frennen nèt; menm si se moun oswa bèt, li p ap viv.’ Lè twonpèt kòn lan fè yon gwo son, yo va monte vè mòn nan.”
14 And Moses cometh down from the mount unto the people, and sanctifieth the people, and they wash their garments;
Epi Moïse te desann mòn nan vè pèp la. Li te konsakre pèp la, e yo te lave vètman yo.
15 and he saith unto the people, 'Be ye prepared for the third day, come not nigh unto a woman.'
Li te di a pèp la: “Mete ou prè pou twazyèm jou a; pa pwoche pre fanm.”
16 And it cometh to pass, on the third day, while it is morning, that there are voices, and lightnings, and a heavy cloud, on the mount, and the sound of a trumpet very strong; and all the people who [are] in the camp do tremble.
Konsa, li te rive nan twazyèm jou a, lè li te vin maten, te genyen gwo tonnè avèk kout loray avèk yon nwaj byen fonse sou mòn nan, ak yon son twonpèt byen fò, jiskaske tout moun ki te nan kan an te tranble.
17 And Moses bringeth out the people to meet God from the camp, and they station themselves at the lower part of the mount,
Epi Moïse te mennen pèp la sòti nan kan an pou rankontre Bondye. Yo te kanpe nan pye mòn nan.
18 and mount Sinai [is] wholly a smoke from the presence of Jehovah, who hath come down on it in fire, and its smoke goeth up as smoke of the furnace, and the whole mount trembleth exceedingly;
Alò, Mòn Sinai te nan lafimen nèt akoz SENYÈ a te desann sou li nan dife. Lafimen li te monte tankou lafimen yon founo, e tout mòn nan te tranble avèk vyolans.
19 and the sound of the trumpet is going on, and very strong; Moses speaketh, and God doth answer him with a voice.
Lè son twonpèt la te vin pi fò, e pi fò toujou, Moïse te pale, e Bondye te reponn avèk tonnè.
20 And Jehovah cometh down on mount Sinai, unto the top of the mount, and Jehovah calleth for Moses unto the top of the mount, and Moses goeth up.
SENYÈ a te vin desann sou Mòn Sinai, sou tèt mòn nan. Senyè a te rele Moïse anwo tèt mòn nan, epi Moïse te monte.
21 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Go down, protest to the people, lest they break through unto Jehovah to see, and many of them have fallen;
SENYÈ a te pale ak Moïse: “Ale desann avèti pèp la pou yo pa pase antre vè SENYÈ a pou wè; konsa, pou anpil nan yo ta vin mouri.
22 and also the priests who are coming nigh unto Jehovah do sanctify themselves, lest Jehovah break forth on them.'
Osi, ke prèt ki pwoche toupre SENYÈ yo konsakre yo menm, oswa SENYÈ a va eklate kont yo.”
23 And Moses saith unto Jehovah, 'The people [is] unable to come up unto mount Sinai, for Thou — Thou hast protested to us, saying, Make a border [for] the mount, then thou hast sanctified it.'
Moïse te di a SENYÈ a: “Pèp la pa kapab monte sou Mòn Sinai a, paske Ou te avèti nou, e te di: ‘Mete limit bòn yo antoure mòn nan, e konsakre li.’”
24 And Jehovah saith unto him, 'Go, descend, then thou hast come up, thou, and Aaron with thee; and the priests and the people do not break through, to come up unto Jehovah, lest He break forth upon them.'
Alò, SENYÈ a te di li: “Ale desann e monte ankò, ou menm e Aaron avèk ou. Men pa kite prèt yo, ni pèp la pase antre pou monte vè SENYÈ a, oswa L ap eklate sou yo.”
25 And Moses goeth down unto the people, and saith unto them: —
Konsa, Moïse te desann vè pèp la e te pale yo.
