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,
Sanza misato sima na bana ya Isalaele kobima na Ejipito, kaka na mokolo yango, bana ya Isalaele bakomaki na esobe ya Sinai.
2 and they journey from Rephidim, and enter the wilderness of Sinai, and encamp in the wilderness; and Israel encampeth there before the mount.
Tango balongwaki na Refidimi, bakotaki na esobe ya Sinai, mpe Isalaele atongaki kuna kati na esobe molako etalana na ngomba.
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,
Moyize amataki na ngomba mpo na kosolola na Nzambe; mpe wuta na likolo ya ngomba, Yawe abengaki ye mpe alobaki na ye: — Tala makambo oyo okoyebisa bakitani ya Jakobi mpe oyo okotalisa na bana ya Isalaele:
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.
« Bomonaki bino moko ndenge nini nasalaki bato ya Ejipito mpe ndenge nini namemaki bino lokola na mapapu ya mpongo kino epai na Ngai.
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;
Soki botosi Ngai penza mpe bobateli boyokani na Ngai, bokozala mpo na Ngai ekolo ya motuya kati na bikolo nyonso. Atako mokili mobimba ezali ya Ngai,
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.'
kasi bino bokozala mpo na Ngai ekolo oyo ekosala mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe, ekolo ya bule. » Oyo nde maloba okoyebisa bana ya Isalaele.
7 And Moses cometh, and calleth for the elders of the people, and setteth before them all these words which Jehovah hath commanded him;
Moyize azongaki, abengisaki bakambi ya Isalaele mpe ayebisaki bango maloba nyonso oyo Yawe atindaki ye koloba.
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.
Bato nyonso bazongisaki lokola moto moko: — Tokosala nyonso oyo Yawe alobi. Bongo Moyize amemaki eyano na bango epai na Yawe.
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.
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Nazali koya epai na yo kati na lipata monene, mpo ete bana ya Isalaele bayoka tango nakosolola na yo mpe mpo ete batia tango nyonso elikya na bango epai na yo. Moyize ayebisaki Yawe makambo nyonso oyo bana ya Isalaele balobaki.
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,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Kende epai ya bato, bulisa bango lelo mpe lobi, bongo yebisa bango ete basukola bilamba na bango;
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.
bamibongisa mpo na mokolo ya misato, pamba te na mokolo wana nde Ngai Yawe, nakokita na likolo ya ngomba Sinai, na miso ya bana nyonso ya Isalaele.
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;
Okotia bandelo zingazinga ya ngomba mpo na bato mpe okoyebisa bango: « Bosala keba ete bomata te na ngomba oyo mpe bopusana te pembeni na yango. Moto nyonso oyo akotuta yango akokufa penza.
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.'
Soki moto moko abuki mobeko oyo, bakosimba ye te, kasi bakoboma ye na mabanga to bakotobola ye likonga; ezala moto to nyama, asengeli kokufa. Kaka soki lokito ya liseke ya meme eyokani makasi nde ndambo ya bato bakomata na ngomba. »
14 And Moses cometh down from the mount unto the people, and sanctifieth the people, and they wash their garments;
Moyize alongwaki na ngomba, akendeki epai ya bana ya Isalaele, abulisaki bango, mpe basukolaki bilamba na bango.
15 and he saith unto the people, 'Be ye prepared for the third day, come not nigh unto a woman.'
Moyize alobaki na bango: — Bomilengela mpo na mokolo ya misato, bosangisa nzoto te na basi na bino.
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.
Na tongo ya mokolo ya misato, bakake ebetaki, mikalikali ezalaki kongenga, mpe lipata monene ezipaki ngomba; bongo bato bayokaki bakelelo kobeta makasi. Bato nyonso kati na molako balengaki.
17 And Moses bringeth out the people to meet God from the camp, and they station themselves at the lower part of the mount,
Moyize abimisaki bato mpo ete bakende kokutana na Nzambe, na libanda ya molako. Mpe bato batelemaki na ebandeli ya ngomba.
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;
Milinga ezipaki ngomba Sinai mpo ete Yawe akitaki na likolo na yango na lolenge ya moto, bongo milinga yango ezalaki komata lokola milinga oyo ebimaka na fulu ya moto. Mpe ngomba nyonso eninganaki makasi.
19 and the sound of the trumpet is going on, and very strong; Moses speaketh, and God doth answer him with a voice.
Mongongo ya kelelo ezalaki kaka komata se komata. Boye Moyize abandaki koloba na Nzambe, mpe Nzambe azalaki koyanola ye na lokito ya kake.
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.
Yawe akitaki na likolo ya ngomba Sinai mpe abengaki Moyize mpo ete amata na songe ya ngomba yango. Boye Moyize amataki.
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;
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Kita mpe kebisa bato ete baleka bandelo te mpo na koluka komona Ngai Yawe, noki te mingi kati na bango bakokufa.
22 and also the priests who are coming nigh unto Jehovah do sanctify themselves, lest Jehovah break forth on them.'
Ezala Banganga-Nzambe oyo basengeli kopusana pene na Ngai, basengeli komibulisa; noki te Ngai Yawe, nakoboma bango.
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.'
Moyize alobaki na Yawe: — Bato ya Isalaele bakoki te komata na ngomba Sinai, pamba te Yo moko oyebisaki biso ete totia bandelo zingazinga ya ngomba mpe tomona yango lokola bule.
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.'
Yawe azongiselaki ye: — Kita lisusu; bongo omata elongo na Aron. Kasi mpo na Banganga-Nzambe mpe bana ya Isalaele, tika ete bawelela komata te epai na Ngai Yawe, noki te nakoboma bango.
25 And Moses goeth down unto the people, and saith unto them: —
Moyize akitaki, akendeki epai ya bana ya Isalaele mpe ayebisaki bango makambo oyo Yawe alobaki.
