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 YHWH, you, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy from [the] elderly of Israel, and you have bowed yourselves far off”;
2 Wò, Mose, koe ate ɖe ŋunye. Ɖo ŋku edzi be Israelvi bubuawo mekpɔ mɔ alia to la kura o.”
and Moses has drawn near to YHWH by himself; and they do not draw near, and the people do not 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 comes in, and recounts to the people all the words of YHWH, and all the judgments, and all the people answer [with] one voice, and say, “All the words which YHWH has spoken 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 writes all the words of YHWH, and rises early in the morning, and builds an altar under the hill, and twelve standing pillars for 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 sends the youths of the sons of Israel, and they cause burnt-offerings to ascend, and sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings to YHWH—calves.
6 Mose kɔ vɔsalã siawo ƒe ʋu ƒe afã ɖe zewo me, eye wòhlẽ afã mamlɛa ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu.
And Moses takes half of the blood and puts [it] in basins, and he has sprinkled half of the blood 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 takes the Scroll of the Covenant, and proclaims [it] in the ears of the people, and they say, “All that which YHWH has spoken we do, and we obey.”
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 takes the blood and sprinkles [it] on the people, and says, “Behold, the blood of the covenant which YHWH has made with you, concerning all these things.”
9 Le esia megbe la, Mose, Aron, Nadab, Abihu kple Israel ƒe ametsitsi blaadreawo lia to la.
And Moses goes up, Aaron also, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy from [the] elderly of Israel,
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 see the God of Israel, and under His feet [is] as the work of a pavement of sapphire, and as the substance of the heavens for purity;
11 Togbɔ be Israel ƒe ametsitsiwo kpɔ Mawu hã la, metsrɔ̃ wo o. Emegbe la, woɖu nu kple wo nɔewo le eŋkume.
and He has not put forth His hand to those of the sons of Israel who are near, and they see God, and eat and drink.
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 YHWH says to Moses, “Come up to Me [on] the mountain and be there, and I give to you the tablets of stone, and the Law, and the command, which I have written to direct them.”
13 Ale Mose kple eƒe kpeɖeŋutɔ, Yosua lia Mawu ƒe to la.
And Moses rises—his minister Joshua also—and Moses goes up to the mountain 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 has said to the elderly, “Abide for us in this [place] until we return to you, and behold, Aaron and Hur [are] with you—he who has matters comes near to them.”
15 Mose lia to la, eye wòbu ɖe lilikpowo me le to la tame.
And Moses goes up to the mountain, and the cloud covers the mountain;
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 YHWH dwells on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covers it [for] six days, and He calls to Moses on the seventh day from 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 YHWH [is] as a consuming fire on the top of the mountain, before 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 goes into the midst of the cloud, and goes up to the mountain, and Moses is on the mountain forty days and forty nights.
