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 unto Moses he said, Come up unto the Lord, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and ye shall bow yourselves down 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 near unto the Lord, but they shall not come nigh; and the people shall not go 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!”
And Moses came and told the people all the words of the Lord, and all the laws of justice; and all the people answered with one voice, and said, all the words which the Lord hath spoken will we do.
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 down all the words of the Lord, and he rose up early in the morning, and built an altar at the foot of the mount, and twelve pillars, 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 then sent the young men of the children of Israel, and they offered burnt-offerings, and sacrificed peace-offerings unto the Lord, of oxen.
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.
And Moses took the half of the blood, and put it in basins; and the [other] half of the blood he sprinkled on 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 he took the book of the covenant, and read in the hearing of the people; and they said, all that the Lord hath spoken will we do and obey.
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 Moses took the blood and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold 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 went up Moses, with Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel.
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 the place under his feet was like a paved work of brilliant sapphire, and like the color of heaven in clearness.
11 Malgre Li pa t lonje men Li kont prens Israël sa yo. Yo te wè Bondye, yo te manje e yo te bwè.
And against the nobles of the children of Israel he stretched not forth his hand; and they saw [the glory of] God, and 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 unto Moses, come up to me to the mount, and remain there: and I will give thee the tables of stone, with the law, and the commandment which I have written, to teach them.
13 Alò, Moïse te leve avèk Josué, sèvitè li a, e Moïse te monte nan mòn Bondye a.
And Moses rose up, and his servant Joshua; and Moses went up to 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.”
And unto the elders he said, Tarry ye for us here, until the time we come again unto you; and, behold, Aaron and Chur are with you, whoever may have any cause to be decided, let him come unto them.
15 Alò Moïse te monte nan mòn nan, e nwaj la te kouvri mòn nan.
And Moses went up to the mount, and the 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 abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days; and he called unto Moses on the seventh day 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 appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a devouring fire on the top of the mount, before 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 went into the midst of the cloud, and ascended the mount; and Moses was on the mount forty days and forty nights.
