Mose 2 24

1 Azɔ la, Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Kplɔ Aron, Nadab kple Abihu kple Israel ƒe ametsitsi blaadre, eye mialia to la. Ame mamlɛawo anɔ adzɔge, eye woasubɔm.

And he said to Moses, Come up to Jehovah, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, and worship ye afar off.

2 Wò, Mose, koe ate ɖe ŋunye. Ɖo ŋku edzi be Israelvi bubuawo mekpɔ mɔ alia to la kura o.”

And Moses alone shall come near to Jehovah, but they shall not come near, neither shall the people go up with him.

3 Mose ɖe gbeƒã se kple ɖoɖo siwo katã Yehowa de asi nɛ la na dukɔ la. Ameawo katã ɖo eŋu kple gbe ɖeka be, “Míawɔ seawo katã dzi.”

And Moses came and told the people all the words of Jehovah, and all the ordinances. And all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which Jehovah has spoken will we do.

4 Mose ŋlɔ Yehowa ƒe seawo katã da ɖi. Esi ŋu ke ŋdi kanya la, etu vɔsamlekpui aɖe ɖe to la te, eye wòɖo dzesidekpe wuieve ƒo xlã vɔsamlekpui la, elabena to wuievee wɔ Israel dukɔ la.

And Moses wrote all the words of Jehovah, and rose up early in the morning, and built an altar below the mount, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.

5 Le esia megbe la, eɖo Israelvi ɖekakpui aɖewo ɖa be woasa numevɔsa eye woatsɔ nyitsuwo awɔ akpedavɔsa na Yehowa.

And he sent young men of the sons of Israel, who offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen to Jehovah.

6 Mose kɔ vɔsalã siawo ƒe ʋu ƒe afã ɖe zewo me, eye wòhlẽ afã mamlɛa ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu.

And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basins, and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.

7 Mose tsɔ agbalẽ si me nublanyawo le eye wòxlẽe na ameawo, eye ameawo gagblɔ be, “Míawɔ nu sia nu si Yehowa gblɔ na mi la, eye míalé eme ɖe asi.”

And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people. And they said, All that Jehovah has spoken will we do, and be obedient.

8 Mose ku lãwo ƒe ʋu tso zeawo me hlẽ ɖe ameawo dome hegblɔ be, “Ʋu sia ɖo kpe nubabla si Yehowa wɔ kpli mí to Se siawo nana mí me la dzi, eye wòtre nubabla la nu.”

And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant that Jehovah has made with you concerning all these words.

9 Le esia megbe la, Mose, Aron, Nadab, Abihu kple Israel ƒe ametsitsi blaadreawo lia to la.

Then Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up.

10 Wokpɔ Israel ƒe Mawu la. Teƒe si wòtsi tsitre ɖo la dze abe safirkpe keklẽ siwo me kɔ abe dziŋgɔli me la ene.

And they saw the God of Israel. And there was under his feet as it were a paved work of sapphire stone, and as it were the very heaven for clearness.

11 Togbɔ be Israel ƒe ametsitsiwo kpɔ Mawu hã la, metsrɔ̃ wo o. Emegbe la, woɖu nu kple wo nɔewo le eŋkume.

And he laid not his hand upon the nobles of the sons of Israel. And they beheld God, and ate and drank.

12 Eye Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Va gbɔnye le to la dzi, eye nànɔ afi ma va se ɖe esime matsɔ Se siwo meŋlɔ ɖe kpewo dzi la ana wò, ale be nàte ŋu akpɔ wo dzi, afia seawo dukɔ la.”

And Jehovah said to Moses, Come up to me onto the mount, and be there, and I will give thee the tablets of stone, and the law and the commandment, which I have written, that thou may teach them.

13 Ale Mose kple eƒe kpeɖeŋutɔ, Yosua lia Mawu ƒe to la.

And Moses rose up, and Joshua his minister, and Moses went up onto the mount of God.

14 Mose gblɔ na ametsitsiawo be, “Minɔ afi sia, eye mialala mí va se ɖe esime míatrɔ agbɔ. Ne nya sesẽ aɖe ado ta ɖa la, ekema mitsɔ nya la ɖo Aron kple Hur ŋkume.”

And he said to the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again to you. And, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you; whoever has a case, let him come near to them.

15 Mose lia to la, eye wòbu ɖe lilikpowo me le to la tame.

And Moses went up onto the mount, and the cloud covered the mount.

16 Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe dze ɖe Sinai to la dzi, eye lilikpo la tsyɔ to la dzi ŋkeke ade. Le ŋkeke adrelia gbe la, Yehowa yɔ Mose tso lilikpo la me.

And the glory of Jehovah abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. And the seventh day he called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud.

17 Israelvi siwo nɔ to la te la kpɔ nu dziŋɔ sia teƒe. Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe dze na wo le toa tame abe dzo bibi ene.

And the appearance of the glory of Jehovah was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the sons of Israel.

18 Mose bu ɖe lilikpo si tsyɔ to la tame la me, eye wònɔ afi ma ŋkeke blaene kple zã blaene.

And Moses entered into the midst of the cloud, and went up onto the mount. And Moses was on the mount forty days and forty nights.
