< Pukaana 19 >

1 A I ke kolu o ka malama o ka puka ana mai o na mamo a Iseraela mai loko mai o Aigupita, ia la no, hiki mai la lakou i ka waonakele o Sinai.
In the third month after the children of Israel had gone out of the land of Egypt, on that same day they came into the wilderness of Sinai.
2 A hele mai la lakou, mai Repidima mai, a hiki ma ka waonahele o Sinai, a hoomoana iho la lakou ma ka waonahele; malaila ka Iseraela i hoomoana ai ma kahi e pili ana i ka mauna.
When they had departed from Rephidim, and had come to the wilderness of Sinai, they encamped in the wilderness; and there Israel encamped before the mountain.
3 Pii aku la o Mose i ke Akua, a hea mai la o Iehova ia ia mai ka mauna mai, me ka i ana mai, Penei oe e olelo aku ai i na pua a Iakoba, a e hai aku i na mamo a Iseraela;
Moses went up to God, and the LORD called to him out of the mountain, saying, “This is what you shall tell the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
4 Ua ike no oukou i na mea a'u i hana'i i ko Aigupita, i ko'u kaikai ana ia oukou ma na eheu o ka aeto, a lawe mai ia oukou io'u nei.
‘You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings, and brought you to myself.
5 A ina hoolohe io mai oukou i ko'u leo, a malama hoi i ko'u berita, alaila e lilo auanei oukou i waiwai no'u, mamua o na kanaka a pau; no ka mea, no'u no ka honua nei a pau:
Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice and keep my covenant, then you shall be my own possession from amongst all peoples; for all the earth is mine;
6 E lilo no hoi oukou i aupuni kahuna pule no'u, a he lahuikanaka laa. Oia hoi na olelo au e hai aku ai i na mamo a Iseraela.
and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.”
7 Hele ae la o Mose, a hea aku la i na lunakahiko o kanaka, a hoonoho iho la imua o lakou i keia mau olelo a pau a Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia ia.
Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and set before them all these words which the LORD commanded him.
8 Olelo pu mai la na kanaka a pau, i mai la, O na mea a pau a Iehova i olelo mai ai, e hana makou ia mea. Hai aku la o Mose i na olelo a kanaka ia Iehova.
All the people answered together, and said, “All that the LORD has spoken we will do.” Moses reported the words of the people to the LORD.
9 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, Aia hoi, e hele mai ana au i ou nei maloko o ke ao panopano, i lohe na kanaka i ka'u kamailio ana me oe, a e manaoio mau loa mai ia oe. A hai aku la o Mose i na olelo a kanaka ia Iehova.
The LORD said to Moses, “Behold, I come to you in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and may also believe you forever.” Moses told the words of the people to the LORD.
10 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E hele oe i kanaka, e hoolaa ia lakou i keia la, a apopo; e holoi hoi lakou i ko lakou kapa.
The LORD said to Moses, “Go to the people, and sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments,
11 E hoomakaukau, no ke kolu o ka la, no ka mea, i ke kolu o ka la, e iho mai ai o Iehova, imua o na maka o kanaka a pau, ma ka mauna o Sinai.
and be ready for the third day; for on the third day the LORD will come down in the sight of all the people on Mount Sinai.
12 A e kau iho oe i pale, no na kanaka a puni, a e i aku hoi, E malama oukou ia oukou iho, i ko oukou pii ana i ka mauna, a me ka pa ana i kona kihi: o ka mea e pa i ka mauna, he oiaio no e make ia.
You shall set bounds to the people all around, saying, ‘Be careful that you don’t go up onto the mountain, or touch its border. Whoever touches the mountain shall be surely put to death.
13 Mai hoopa aku kekahi lima ia mea, no ka mea, he oiaio no, e hailukuia oia, a houia; ina he holoholona, a he kanaka, aole ia e ola: a i kani loihi ka pu, alaila e hele mai lakou i ka mauna.
No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot through; whether it is animal or man, he shall not live.’ When the shofar sounds long, they shall come up to the mountain.”
14 Iho iho la o Mose ilalo, mai ka mauna iho i kanaka; hoolaa iho la i kanaka; a holoi iho la lakou i ko lakou kapa.
Moses went down from the mountain to the people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes.
15 I aku la ia i kanaka, E hoomakaukau oukou, no ke kolu o ka la; mai komo ae i na wahine.
He said to the people, “Be ready by the third day. Don’t have sexual relations with a woman.”
16 A i ke kakahiaka o ke kolu o ka la, he hekili. a he uila, a he ao polohiwa ma ka mauna, a he leo no ka pu e kani ikaika loa ana; haalulu iho la na kanaka a pau ma. ko lakou wihi i hoomoana ai.
On the third day, when it was morning, there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain, and the sound of an exceedingly loud shofar; and all the people who were in the camp trembled.
17 Kai mai la o Mose i kanaka mawaho o kahi a lakou e hoomoana ai, e halawai me ke Akua; a ku iho la lakou ma kahi malalo iho o ka mauna.
Moses led the people out of the camp to meet God; and they stood at the lower part of the mountain.
18 Ma ka mauna a pau i Sinai, he uwahi, no ka mea, ua iho mai o Iehova maluna ona maloko o ke ahi: a punohu aku la kona uwahi, me he uwahi umu hao la, haalulu nui iho la ka mauna a pau.
All of Mount Sinai smoked, because the LORD descended on it in fire; and its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked greatly.
19 A i ke kani loihi loa ana o ka pu, a ikaika nui ae la, olelo aku la o Mose, a pane mai la ka leo o ke Akua ia ia.
When the sound of the shofar grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.
20 Iho mai la o Iehova maluna o ka mauna o Sinai, ma ke poo o ka mauna, a hea mai la o Iehova ia Mose e pii aku i ke poo o ka mauna; a pii aku la o Mose.
The LORD came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain. The LORD called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
21 I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E iho oe ilalo, e kauoha aku i kanaka, o hemo mai lakou io Iehova nei, e nana, a haule lakou he nui loa.
The LORD said to Moses, “Go down, warn the people, lest they break through to the LORD to gaze, and many of them perish.
22 A e huikala hoi na kahuna ia lakou iho, o ka poe e hookokoke ana ia Iehova, o poha aku o Iehova io lakou la.
Let the priests also, who come near to the LORD, sanctify themselves, lest the LORD break out on them.”
23 I aku la o Mose ia Iehova, Aole e hiki na kanaka ke pii mai i ka mauna nei i Sinai: no ka mea, ua kauoha mai oe ia makou, ua i mai, E kau iho i pale a puni ka mauna, a e hookapu ia mea.
Moses said to the LORD, “The people can’t come up to Mount Sinai, for you warned us, saying, ‘Set bounds around the mountain, and sanctify it.’”
24 I mai la o Iehova ia ia, O hele, e iho oe ilalo, a e pii hou mai oe, o oe, a me Aarona pu; aka, o na kahuna a me kanaka, mai hemo mai lakou, e pii mai io Iehova nei, o poha aku ia maluna o lakou.
The LORD said to him, “Go down! You shall bring Aaron up with you, but don’t let the priests and the people break through to come up to the LORD, lest he break out against them.”
25 Iho mai la o Mose ilalo i kanaka, a olelo aku la ia lakou.
So Moses went down to the people, and told them.
