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 to Moses he said, Go up to the Lord, you and Aaron and Nadab and Abiud, and seventy of the elders of Israel: and they shall worship the Lord from a distance.

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 draw near to God; and they shall not draw near, and the people shall not come up with them.

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 went in and related to the people all the words of God and the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice, saying, All the words which the Lord has spoken, we will do and be obedient.

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 Moses rose up early in the morning, and built an altar under the mountain, and [set up] twelve stones for 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 forth the young men of the children of Israel, and they offered whole burnt offerings, and they sacrificed young calves as a peace-offering to God.

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 the blood and poured it into bowls, and half the blood he poured out upon 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 it in the ears of the people, and they said, All things whatever the Lord has spoken we will do and listen therein.

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 upon the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the Lord has made with you concerning all these words.

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

And Moses went up, and Aaron, and Nadab and Abiud, 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 place where the God of Israel stood; and under his feet was as it were a work of sapphire slabs, and as it were the appearance of the firmament of heaven in its purity.

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 of the chosen ones of Israel there was not even one missing, and they appeared in the place of 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 to Moses, Come up to me into the mountain, and be there; and I will give you the tables of stone, the law and the commandments, which I have written to give them laws.

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 attendant, and they 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 to the elders they said, Rest there till we return to you; and behold, Aaron and Or are with you: if any man have a cause to be tried, let them go to them.

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

And Moses and Joshua went up to the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.

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 God came down upon the mount Sina, and the cloud covered it six days; and the Lord called Moses on the seventh day 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 as burning fire on the top of the mountain, before 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 went into the midst of the cloud, and went up to the mountain, and was there in the mountain forty days and forty nights.
