Egzòd 24
1 Alò, Li te di a Moïse: “Vin monte vè SENYÈ a, ou menm avèk Aaron, Nadab, Abihu avèk swasann-dis nan ansyen Israël yo, e nou va adore a yon distans.
And he said to Moses: Come up to the Lord, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abiu, and seventy of the ancients of Israel, and you shall adore afar off.
2 Men se sèl Moïse k ap vin toupre SENYÈ a, men yo menm p ap vin pre. Pèp la p ap monte avèk li.”
And Moses alone shall come up to the Lord, but they shall not come nigh; neither shall the people come up with him.
3 Alò Moïse te vin rakonte a pèp la tout pawòl a SENYÈ a yo, avèk tout òdonans yo; epi tout pèp la te reponn avèk yon sèl vwa. Yo te di: “Tout pawòl sa yo ke SENYÈ a pale, nou va fè yo!”
So Moses came and told the people all the words of the Lord, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice: We will do all the words of the Lord, which he hath spoken.
4 Moïse te ekri tout pawòl SENYÈ a yo. Konsa, li te leve granmmaten e li te bati yon lotèl nan pye mòn nan avèk douz pilye pou douz tribi Israël yo.
And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord: and rising in the morning he built an altar at the foot of the mount, and twelve titles according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
5 Li te voye jèn mesye nan fis Israël yo, yo te ofri ofrann brile e yo te fè sakrifis jèn towo kòm ofrann lapè bay SENYÈ a.
And he sent young men of the children of Israel, and they offered holocausts, and sacrificed pacific victims of calves to the Lord.
6 Moïse te pran mwatye nan san an. Li te mete li nan basen yo, e lòt mwatye san an li te aspèje li sou lotèl la.
Then Moses took half of the blood, and put it into bowls: and the rest he poured upon the altar.
7 Epi li te pran liv akò a, e li te li li nan zòrèy a tout pèp la. Epi yo te di: “Tout sa ke SENYÈ a pale, nou va fè yo, e nou va obeyi yo.”
And taking the book of the covenant, he read it in the hearing of the people: and they said: All things that the Lord hath spoken we will do, we will be obedient.
8 Alò, Moïse te pran san an. Li te aspèje li sou pèp la. Li te di: “Gade byen san akò a, ke SENYÈ a te fè avèk nou selon tout pawòl sa yo.”
And he took the blood and sprinkled it upon the people, and he said: This is the blood of the covenant which the Lord hath made with you concerning all these words.
9 Alò, Moïse te pran Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, ak swasann-dis nan ansyen Israël yo pou monte.
Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abiu, and seventy of the ancients of Israel went up:
10 Yo te wè Bondye Israël la. Anba pye li, te parèt yon choz tankou yon pave ki fèt an safì, klè tankou syèl la menm.
And they saw the God of Israel: and under his feet as it were a work of sapphire stone, and as the heaven, when clear.
11 Malgre Li pa t lonje men Li kont prens Israël sa yo. Yo te wè Bondye, yo te manje e yo te bwè.
Neither did he lay his hand upon those of the children of Israel, that retired afar off, and they saw God, and they did eat and drink.
12 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Vin monte vè Mwen nan mòn nan e rete la, epi Mwen va bay ou tab wòch yo avèk lalwa ak kòmandman ke M te ekri pou enstwi yo.”
And the Lord said to Moses: Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and the law, and the commandments which I have written: that thou mayst teach them.
13 Alò, Moïse te leve avèk Josué, sèvitè li a, e Moïse te monte nan mòn Bondye a.
Moses rose up, and his minister Josue: and Moses going up into the mount of God,
14 Men a ansyen yo li te di: “Tann isit la pou nou jis lè nou retounen kote nou. Epi gade byen, Aaron avèk Hur isit avèk nou. Nenpòt moun ki genyen yon pwosè lalwa kapab pwoche yo.”
Said to the ancients: Wait ye here till we return to you. You have Aaron and Hur with you: if any question shall arise, you shall refer it to them.
15 Alò Moïse te monte nan mòn nan, e nwaj la te kouvri mòn nan.
And when Moses was gone up, a cloud covered the mount.
16 Glwa SENYÈ a te rete sou Mòn Sinai a, e nwaj la te kouvri li pandan sis jou. Nan setyèm jou a, Li te rele Moïse soti nan mitan nwaj la.
And the glory of the Lord dwelt upon Sinai, covering it with a cloud six days: and the seventh day he called him out of the midst of the cloud.
17 Nan zye a fis Israël yo, aparans glwa SENYÈ a te tankou yon dife ki t ap ravaje sou tèt mòn nan.
And the sight of the glory of the Lord was like a burning fire upon the top of the mount, in the eyes of the children of Israel.
18 Moïse te antre nan mitan nwaj la pandan li te monte sou mòn nan. Konsa, Moïse te rete sou mòn nan pandan karant jou ak karant nwit.
And Moses, entering into the midst of the cloud, went up into the mountain: and he was there forty days, and forty nights.
