< Ọpụpụ 19 >
1 Nʼọnwa nke atọ, site nʼoge ndị Izrel hapụchara obodo Ijipt, nʼụbọchị ahụ, ha bịaruru ọzara Saịnaị.
In the third month of the going out of the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, in this day they have come into the wilderness of Sinai,
2 Ọ bụ site na Refidim ka ha sị bịaruo ọzara Saịnaị, mee ebe obibi ha nʼebe ahụ, nʼakụkụ ugwu Saịnaị.
and they journey from Rephidim, and enter the wilderness of Sinai, and encamp in the wilderness; and Israel encampeth there before the mount.
3 Mosis rigooro nʼelu ugwu ahụ izute Chineke. Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼelu ugwu ahụ kpọ Mosis oku sị ya, “Otu a ka ị ga-esi gwa ụlọ Jekọb okwu. Ị ga-akọrọ ụmụ Izrel:
And Moses hath gone up unto God, and Jehovah calleth unto him out of the mount, saying, 'Thus dost thou say to the house of Jacob, and declare to the sons of Israel,
4 ‘Unu onwe unu ahụla ihe m mere ndị Ijipt, hụkwa otu m siri buru unu na nku ugo, si otu a, dọtara unu onwe m.
Ye — ye have seen that which I have done to the Egyptians, and I bear you on eagles' wings, and bring you in unto Myself.
5 Nʼihi nke a, ọ bụrụ na unu ga-erubere m isi nke ọma ma debe ọgbụgba ndụ m, unu ga-abụ ihe onwunwe nke m dị oke ọnụahịa. Nʼezie, ụwa niile bụ nke m,
'And now, if ye really hearken to My voice, then ye have kept My covenant, and been to Me a peculiar treasure more than all the peoples, for all the earth [is] Mine;
6 ma unu ga-abụrụ m alaeze ndị nchụaja, na mba dị nsọ.’ Okwu ndị a ka ị ga-agwa ụmụ Izrel.”
and ye — ye are to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation: these [are] the words which thou dost speak unto the sons of Israel.'
7 Mosis gara kpọkọta ndị okenye ndị Izrel, gwa ha okwu niile nke Onyenwe anyị nyere ya nʼiwu.
And Moses cometh, and calleth for the elders of the people, and setteth before them all these words which Jehovah hath commanded him;
8 Ndị mmadụ niile a jikwa otu olu zaghachi ya sị, “Ihe ọbụla Onyenwe anyị kwuru ka anyị ga-eme.” Mosis gwara Onyenwe anyị ihe niile ndị Izrel kwuru.
and all the people answer together and say, 'All that Jehovah hath spoken we do;' and Moses returneth the words of the people unto Jehovah.
9 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Lee, agaje m izute gị nʼime igwe ojii gbara ọchịchịrị. Achọrọ m ka ụmụ Izrel niile were ntị ha nụrụ mgbe m ga-agwa gị okwu, ọzọkwa, ka ha kwerekwa na gị ruo mgbe niile.” Mosis gwara ndị Izrel niile okwu nke Onyenwe anyị gwara ya.
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Lo, I am coming unto thee in the thickness of the cloud, so that the people hear in My speaking with thee, and also believe in thee to the age;' and Moses declareth the words of the people unto Jehovah.
10 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu ọzọ sị, “Rịdakwuru ndị m, doo ha nsọ taa na echi. Nʼihi na nke a ga-abụ nkwado ha izute m. Ka ha saa uwe ha mmiri,
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Go unto the people; and thou hast sanctified them to-day and to-morrow, and they have washed their garments,
11 jikerekwa nʼụbọchị nke atọ. Nʼihi na m ga-arịdata nʼelu ugwu Saịnaị nʼihu mmadụ niile.
and have been prepared for the third day; for on the third day doth Jehovah come down before the eyes of all the people, on mount Sinai.
12 Ị ga-akpa oke nʼebe ha na-agaghị agafe. Nye ha iwu si ha, ‘Kpacharanụ anya ka unu ghara ịbịa ugwu ahụ nso, maọbụ metụ ala ugwu ahụ aka. Nʼihi na onye ọ bụla metụrụ ugwu ahụ aka aghaghị ịnwụ.’
'And thou hast made a border [for] the people round about, saying, Take heed to yourselves, going up into the mount, or coming against its extremity; whoever is coming against the mount is certainly put to death;
13 Agaghị emetụ onye mmebi iwu ahụ aka, kama, a ga-eji nkume tugbuo ya, maọbụ e were àkụ gbagbuo ya, maọbụ mmadụ maọbụ anụmanụ, ọ gaghị adị ndụ. Mmadụ ọbụla agaghị abịaru ugwu ahụ nso, ruo mgbe ha nụrụ opi nke a ga-afụ. Mgbe ahụ, ha nwere ike bịa nso ugwu ahụ.”
a hand cometh not against him, for he is certainly stoned or shot through, whether beast or man it liveth not; in the drawing out of the jubilee cornet they go up into the mount.'
14 Ya mere, Mosis si nʼugwu ahụ rịdakwuru ụmụ Izrel. O doo ndị mmadụ ahụ nsọ. Ha niile ji mmiri saa uwe ha.
And Moses cometh down from the mount unto the people, and sanctifieth the people, and they wash their garments;
15 Mosis dọrọ ha aka na ntị sị ha, “Jikerenụ nʼụbọchị nke atọ. Nwoke na nwanyị enwekwala mmekọrịta ọbụla.”
and he saith unto the people, 'Be ye prepared for the third day, come not nigh unto a woman.'
16 Mgbe o ruru nʼụtụtụ ụbọchị nke atọ ahụ, oke igwe ojii kpuchiri elu ugwu ahụ. Amụma malitere na-egbuke, egbe eluigwe malitekwara ịgba. Nʼikpeazụ, opi ike dara. Mmadụ niile tụrụ egwu, makwa jijiji.
And it cometh to pass, on the third day, while it is morning, that there are voices, and lightnings, and a heavy cloud, on the mount, and the sound of a trumpet very strong; and all the people who [are] in the camp do tremble.
17 Mosis duuru ndị mmadụ ahụ niile si nʼụlọ ikwu ha pụta gaa izute Chineke. Ha niile guzokwara nʼala ugwu ahụ.
And Moses bringeth out the people to meet God from the camp, and they station themselves at the lower part of the mount,
18 Mgbe ahụ, anwụrụ ọkụ kpuchiri ugwu Saịnaị. Ma lee! Onyenwe anyị rịdatara dịka ire ọkụ nʼelu ugwu ahụ. Anwụrụ ọkụ rigoro elu dịka anwụrụ ọkụ nke ọhịa na-ere ọkụ. Ala ọma jijiji dị ukwuu dakwasịkwara ugwu ahụ.
and mount Sinai [is] wholly a smoke from the presence of Jehovah, who hath come down on it in fire, and its smoke goeth up as smoke of the furnace, and the whole mount trembleth exceedingly;
19 Mgbe opi ike ahụ na-ada ike ike, Mosis malitere ịgwa Chineke okwu. Chineke zaghachiri Mosis okwu site nʼolu dara ụda dịka egbe eluigwe.
and the sound of the trumpet is going on, and very strong; Moses speaketh, and God doth answer him with a voice.
20 Onyenwe anyị rịdatara bịaruo nʼelu ugwu Saịnaị. Ọ gwara Mosis ka ọ rịgota bịa zute ya. Mosis rigoro nʼelu ugwu ahụ ijekwuru Chineke.
And Jehovah cometh down on mount Sinai, unto the top of the mount, and Jehovah calleth for Moses unto the top of the mount, and Moses goeth up.
21 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Rịda gaa dọọ ndị mmadụ ahụ aka na ntị ka ha ghara ịgafe oke ala ahụ bịaruo nso ịhụ Onyenwe anyị anya ka ha ghara ịla nʼiyi.
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Go down, protest to the people, lest they break through unto Jehovah to see, and many of them have fallen;
22 Ọ bụladị ndị nchụaja ndị chọrọ ịbịaru Onyenwe anyị nso aghaghị ido onwe ha nsọ. Ma ọ bụghị otu a, Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka ha niile nwụọ.”
and also the priests who are coming nigh unto Jehovah do sanctify themselves, lest Jehovah break forth on them.'
23 Mosis zaghachiri Onyenwe anyị sị, “Ndị mmadụ agaghị arịgota nʼugwu Saịnaị nʼihi na gị onwe gị adọọla anyị aka na ntị sị, ‘Kpaanụ oke gburugburu ugwu a, doo ya nsọ.’”
And Moses saith unto Jehovah, 'The people [is] unable to come up unto mount Sinai, for Thou — Thou hast protested to us, saying, Make a border [for] the mount, then thou hast sanctified it.'
24 Ma Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị: “Gbada gaa kpọgota Erọn ka gị na ya soro rigota nʼelu ugwu a. Ma lezie anya ka ndị nchụaja na ndị Izrel ghara irigota nʼebe a ịbịakwute Onyenwe anyị, ma ọ bụghị otu a, ọ ga-eji ike laa ha nʼiyi.”
And Jehovah saith unto him, 'Go, descend, then thou hast come up, thou, and Aaron with thee; and the priests and the people do not break through, to come up unto Jehovah, lest He break forth upon them.'
25 Ya mere, Mosis rịdakwuru ndị Izrel ga gwa ha.
And Moses goeth down unto the people, and saith unto them: —
