Ọpụpụ 24

1 Ọ gwara Mosis sị, “Rigokwute Onyenwe anyị, gị na Erọn, na Nadab, na Abihu, na mmadụ iri asaa site na ndị okenye Izrel. Ma unu ga-efe ofufe site nʼebe dị anya.

And unto Moses He said: 'Come up unto the LORD, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship ye afar off;

2 Emesịa, ọ bụ naanị Mosis ga-abịarute Onyenwe anyị nso. Ndị nke ọzọ agaghị abịaru nso. Ndị mmadụ ndị ọzọ agaghịkwa eso ya rigota.”

and Moses alone shall come near unto the LORD; but they shall not come near; neither shall the people go up with him.'

3 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis bịara gwa ndị Izrel okwu niile na iwu niile Onyenwe anyị nyere. Ha niile zaghachiri ya nʼotu olu sị, “Anyị ga-emezu ihe niile Onyenwe anyị kwuru.”

And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice, and said: 'All the words which the Lord hath spoken will we do.'

4 Mosis deturu ihe niile Onyenwe anyị kwuru. Nʼisi ụtụtụ echi ya, o biliri wuo ebe ịchụ aja na ndịda ugwu ahụ. O gwunyere ogidi nkume iri na abụọ nke nọchiri anya ebo iri na abụọ ụmụ Izrel.

And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the mount, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.

5 Mosis zipụtara ụmụ okorobịa Izrel, ndị chụrụ aja nsure ọkụ ma werekwa ụmụ oke ehi chụọ aja udo nye Onyenwe anyị.

And he sent the young men of the children of Israel, who offered burnt-offerings, and sacrificed peace-offerings of oxen unto the LORD.

6 Mosis tinyere ọkara ọbara ehi ndị ahụ nʼime efere. Ma o fesara ọkara ọbara nke fọdụrụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ahụ.

And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basins; and half of the blood he dashed against the altar.

7 Emesịa, Mosis guzoro nʼebe ahụ gụpụta na ntị mmadụ niile, ihe dị nʼAkwụkwọ Ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ. Mgbe ụmụ Izrel nụrụ ya, ha weere otu olu kwuo sị, “Anyị anụla, anyị ga-eme ihe niile Onyenwe anyị kwuru. Anyị ga-erube isi.”

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 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis weere ọbara ahụ dị nʼime efere, fesaa ya nʼahụ ndị ahụ niile, sị, “Nke a bụ ọbara ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ nke dị nʼetiti unu na Onyenwe anyị, dịka okwu niile ndị a si dị.”

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 in agreement with all these words.'

9 Mosis rigoro nʼelu ugwu, ya na Erọn, na Nadab na Abihu, na mmadụ iri asaa site na ndị okenye Izrel.

Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel;

10 Ha hụrụ Chineke nke Izrel. Nʼokpuru ụkwụ ya abụọ, e were ihe dịka ebe nzọkwasị ụkwụ nke e ji nkume safaia mee. Nkume ndị a na-enwukwa ezi onwunwu dịka mbara eluigwe.

and they saw the God of Israel; and there was under His feet the like of a paved work of sapphire stone, and the like of the very heaven for clearness.

11 Ọ bụ ezie na ndị okenye Izrel hụrụ Chineke anya ma ọ laghị ha nʼiyi. Kama o mere ka ha nọọ nʼihu ya rie, ṅụọ.

And upon the nobles of the children of Israel He laid not His hand; and they beheld God, and did eat and drink.

12 Mgbe nke a gasịrị, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Rigota, bịakwute m nʼelu ugwu, nọdụkwa ebe ahụ, maka na aga m enye gị mbadamba nkume nke iwu na ụkpụrụ dị na ya, nke m ji aka m dee maka i ji kuziere ha.”

And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Come up to Me into the mount and be there; and I will give thee the tables of stone, and the law and the commandment, which I have written, that thou mayest teach them.'

13 Mosis biliri, ya na Joshua onye na-agara ya ozi. Mosis nʼonwe ya rigokwara nʼelu ugwu Chineke.

And Moses rose up, and Joshua his minister; and Moses went up into the mount of God.

14 Ọ gwara ndị okenye Izrel okwu sị, “Cherenụ anyị nʼebe a tutu ruo mgbe anyị ga-alaghachikwute unu. Unu na Erọn na Hua nọ, onye ọbụla nwere nsogbu jekwuru ha.”

And unto the elders he said: 'Tarry ye here for us, until we come back unto you; and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you; whosoever hath a cause, let him come near unto them.'

15 Ngwangwa, Mosis rigoro nʼelu ugwu ahụ, oke igwe ojii kpuchiri ugwu ahụ niile,

And Moses went up into the mount, and the cloud covered the mount.

16 ebube Onyenwe anyị kpuchikwara elu ugwu ahụ. Ọ bụ ụbọchị isii ka igwe ojii kpuchiri ugwu ahụ. Nʼụbọchị nke asaa, Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼetiti igwe ojii ahụ kpọọ Mosis oku.

And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days; and the seventh day He called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.

17 Ma nʼebe ndị Izrel nọ, ebube Onyenwe anyị na-enwu dịka ọkụ na-achọ irechapụ ugwu ahụ.

And the appearance of the glory of the LORD was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the children of Israel.

18 Mosis banyere nʼime igwe ojii ahụ mgbe ọ na-arịgo ugwu ahụ. Ọ nọgidere nʼelu ugwu ahụ iri ụbọchị anọ, ehihie na abalị.

And Moses entered into the midst of the cloud, and went up into the mount; and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.
