< Exodo 19 >

1 Iti maikatlo a bulan kalpasan a pimmanaw dagiti tattao ti Israel iti daga ti Egipto, iti isu met laeng nga aldaw, dimmanonda iti let-ang ti Sinai.
In the third month of the departure of Israel from the land of Egypt, in that day, they arrived in the wilderness of Sinai.
2 Kalpasan a pimmanawda idiay Refidim ken dimmanonda iti let-ang ti Sinai, nagkampoda iti let-ang iti sangoanan ti bantay.
Thus, setting out from Raphidim, and going directly to the desert of Sinai, they encamped in the same place, and there Israel pitched their tents away from the region of the mountain.
3 Simmang-at ni Moises iti ayan ti Dios. Immawag ni Yahweh kenkuana manipud iti bantay ket kinunana, “Masapul nga ibagam iti balay ni Jacob, kadagiti tattao ti Israel:
Then Moses ascended to God. And the Lord called to him from the mountain, and he said: “This you shall say to the house of Jacob, and announce to the sons of Israel:
4 Nakitayo ti inaramidko kadagiti Egipcio, no kasano ti panangawitko kadakayo babaen kadagiti payyak ti agila ket inyegkayo iti ayanko.
‘You have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, in what way I carried you upon the wings of eagles and how I have taken you for myself.
5 Ita ngarud, no situtulnogkayo a dumngeg iti timekko ken salimetmetanyo ti katulagak, ket agbalinkayonto a naisangsangayan a sanikuak manipud kadagiti amin a tattao, ta kukuak ti entero a daga.
If, therefore, you will hear my voice, and you will keep my covenant, you will be to me a particular possession out of all people. For all the earth is mine.
6 Agbalinkayonto a pagarian dagiti papadi ken nasantoan a nasion a maipaay kaniak. Dagitoy dagiti sasao a masapul nga ibagam kadagiti tattao ti Israel.”
And you will be to me a priestly kingdom and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you will speak to the sons of Israel.”
7 Napan ngarud ni Moises ket pinaayabanna dagiti panglakayen dagiti tattao. Indatagna kadakuada dagitoy amin a sasao nga imbilin ni Yahweh kenkuana.
Moses went, and calling together those greater by birth among the people, he set forth all the words which the Lord had commanded.
8 Sangsangkamaysa a simmungbat dagiti tattao ket kinunada, “Aramidenmi amin nga imbaga ni Yahweh.” Kalpasanna, napan ni Moises a mangipadamag kenni Yahweh iti imbaga dagiti tattao.
And all the people responded together: “Everything that the Lord has spoken, we shall do.” And when Moses had related the words of the people to the Lord,
9 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Umayakto kenka babaen iti napuskol nga ulep tapno mangngeg dagiti tattao inton makisaritaak kenka ket mamatida met kenka iti agnanayon.” Ket imbaga ni Moises kenni Yahweh dagiti sasao dagiti tattao.
the Lord said to him: “Soon now, I will come to you in the mist of a cloud, so that the people may hear me speaking to you, and so that they may believe you continuously.” Therefore, Moses reported the words of the people to the Lord,
10 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Mapanka iti ayan dagiti tattao. Masapul nga ilasinmo ida para kaniak ita ken inton bigat, ken ipalabam kadakuada dagiti lupotda.
who said to him: “Go to the people, and sanctify them today, and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments.
11 Agsaganakayo para iti maikatlo nga aldaw, ta iti maikatlo nga aldaw, Siak, ni Yahweh, ket bumabanto iti Bantay Sinai.
And let them be prepared on the third day. For on the third day, the Lord will descend, in the sight of all the people, over Mount Sinai.
12 Masapul a mangikabilka iti beddeng iti aglawlaw ti bantay para kadagiti tattao. Ibagam kadakuada, 'Aluadanyo a saankayo a sumangsang-at iti bantay wenno sagiden ti beddengna. Siasinoman a mangsagid iti bantay ket sigurado a mapapatay.'
And you will establish limits for the people all around, and you will say to them: ‘Take care not to ascend to the mountain, and that you do not touch its parts. All who touch the mountain, shall die a death.’
13 Masapul nga awan ti aniaman nga ima a mangsagid iti dayta a tao. Ngem ketdi, masapul a batoen wenno panaen isuna. Tao man dayta wenno ayup, masapul isuna a mapapatay. Inton aguni ti trumpeta iti nabayag ken napigsa, mabalindan nga umay iti sakaanan ti bantay.”
Hands shall not touch him, but he shall be crushed with stones, or he shall be pierced through with darts. Whether it be a beast or a man, he shall not live. For when the trumpet begins to sound, perhaps they might go up toward the mountain.”
14 Ket simmalog ni Moises iti ayan dagiti tattao manipud iti bantay. Inlasinna dagiti tattao para kenni Yahweh, ken linabaanda dagiti lupotda.
And Moses came down from the mountain to the people, and he sanctified them. And when they had washed their garments,
15 Kinunana kadagiti tattao, “Agsaganakayo iti maikatlo nga aldaw; saankayo a dumenna kadagiti assawayo a babbai.”
he said to them, “Be prepared on the third day, and do not draw near to your wives.”
16 Iti bigat iti maikatlo nga aldaw, adda gurruod ken kimat ken adda napuskol nga ulep iti bantay, ken adda napigsa unay nga uni ti trumpeta. Nagpigerger dagiti amin a tattao iti kampo.
And now, the third day arrived and the morning dawned. And behold, thunders began to be heard, and also lightning flashed, and a very dense cloud covered the mountain, and the noise of the trumpet resounded vehemently. And the people who were in the camp were fearful.
17 Pinaruar ni Moises dagiti tattao manipud iti kampo tapno sabtenda ti Dios, ket nagtakderda iti sakaanan ti bantay.
And when Moses had led them out to meet God, from the place of the camp, they stood at the base of the mountain.
18 Naabbongan ti entero a Bantay Sinai iti asuk gapu ta bimmaba ni Yahweh iti daytoy babaen iti apuy ken asuk. Nagpangato ti asuk a kasla asuk ti orno, ken naggun-gon iti napalalo ti entero a bantay.
Then all of Mount Sinai was smoking. For the Lord had descended over it with fire, and smoke ascended from it, as from a furnace. And the entire mountain was terrible.
19 Idi pumigpigsa ti uni ti trumpeta, nagsao ni Moises ket sinungbatan isuna ti Dios babaen iti timek.
And the sound of the trumpet gradually increased to be louder, and extended to be longer. Moses was speaking, and God was answering him.
20 Bimmaba ni Yahweh iti Bantay Sinai, iti tapaw ti bantay, ket pinasang-atna ni Moises iti tapaw. Simmang-at ngarud ni Moises.
And the Lord descended over Mount Sinai, to the very top of the mountain, and he called Moses to its summit. And when he had ascended there,
21 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Sumalogka ket ballaagam dagiti tattao a saanda a lumabes kadagiti beddeng nga umay mangkita kaniak, ta no saan adu ti matay kadakuada.
he said to him: “Descend, and call the people to witness, lest they might be willing to transgress the limits, so as to see the Lord, and a very great multitude of them might perish.
22 Ibagam met kadagiti papadi nga umasideg kaniak a dalusanda dagiti bagbagida-isaganada dagiti bagbagida iti iyuumayko tapno saanko ida a dangran.”
Likewise, the priests who approach toward the Lord, let them be sanctified, lest he strike them down.”
23 Kinuna ni Moises kenni Yahweh, “Saan a mabalin a sumang-at dagiti tattao iti bantay, ta imbilinmo kadakami, 'Mangikabilka iti beddeng iti aglawlaw ti bantay ket ilasinmo a para kenni Yahweh.'”
And Moses said to the Lord: “The people are not able to ascend to Mount Sinai. For you testified, and you commanded, saying: ‘Set limits around the mountain, and sanctify it.’”
24 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenkuana, “Mapanka, bumabaka iti bantay, ket ikuyogmo ditoy ni Aaron, ngem saanmo nga ipalubos a lumabes iti beddeng dagiti papadi ken dagiti tattao nga umay kaniak, ta no saan dangrak ida.”
And the Lord said to him, “Go, descend. And you shall ascend, and Aaron with you. But let not the priests or the people transgress the limits, nor ascend to the Lord, lest perhaps he may put them to death.”
25 Simmalog ngarud ni Moises iti ayan dagiti tattao ket kinasaritana ida.
And Moses descended to the people, and he explained everything to them.
