< Exodo 32 >
1 Idi nakita dagiti tattao a nabayagan ni Moises iti isasalogna manipud iti bantay, nagu-ummongda iti aglawlaw ni Aaron ket kinunada kenkuana, “Umayka, mangaramidka iti maysa a didiosen a mangidaulo kadakami. Ta daytoy a Moises, ti lalaki a nangirruar kadakami manipud iti daga ti Egipto, saanmi nga ammo ti napasamak kenkuana.”
Now when the people saw that Moses was delayed in coming down from the mountain, they gathered around Aaron and said, “Come, make us gods who will go before us. As for this Moses who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him!”
2 Isu a kinuna ni Aaron kadakuada, “Ikkatenyo dagiti singsing a balitok nga adda kadagiti lapayag dagiti assawayo a babbai, annakyo a lallaki ken dagiti annakyo a babbai ket iyegyo dagitoy kaniak.”
So Aaron told them, “Take off the gold earrings that are on your wives and sons and daughters, and bring them to me.”
3 Inikkat dagiti amin a tattao dagiti singsing a balitok nga adda kadagiti lapayagda ket impanda dagitoy kenni Aaron.
Then all the people took off their gold earrings and brought them to Aaron.
4 Inawatna dagiti balitok manipud kadakuada, ket hinormana daytoy iti paghormaan ket pinormana daytoy a sinan-baka. Kalpasanna, kinuna dagiti tattao, “Israel, daytoy ti diosyo a nangirruar kadakayo iti daga ti Egipto.”
He took the gold from their hands, and with an engraving tool he fashioned it into a molten calf. And they said, “These, O Israel, are your gods, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!”
5 Idi nakita ni Aaron daytoy, nangaramid isuna iti maysa nga altar iti sangoanan ti sinan-baka ket inwaragawagna; kinunana, “Inton bigat ket maysa a piesta a panagdayaw kenni Yahweh.”
When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before the calf and proclaimed: “Tomorrow shall be a feast to the LORD.”
6 Nasapa a bimmangon dagiti tattao iti kinabigatanna ket nangisagutda kadagiti daton a mapuoran ken nangiyegda kadagiti daton iti panagkakadua. Kalpasanna, nagtugawda tapno mangan ken uminom ket kalpasanna timmakderda tapno agbabartekda iti nalabes a panagrambak.
So the next day they arose, offered burnt offerings, and presented peace offerings. And the people sat down to eat and drink, and got up to indulge in revelry.
7 Ket nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Mapanka a dagus ta dagiti tattaom, nga indauloam nga inruar iti daga ti Egipto ket dinadaelda dagiti bagbagida.
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go down at once, for your people, whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves.
8 Pinanawanda a dagus ti dalan nga imbilinko kadakuada. Nangpormada para iti bagida iti sinan-baka ket nagrukbab ken nangidatonda iti daytoy. Kinunada, 'Israel, daytoy ti diosyo a nangiruar kadakayo manipud iti daga ti Egipto.'”
How quickly they have turned aside from the way that I commanded them! They have made for themselves a molten calf and have bowed down to it. They have sacrificed to it and said, ‘These, O Israel, are your gods, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.’”
9 Ket kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Nakitakon dagitoy a tattao. Kitaem, natangken ti uloda a tattao.
The LORD also said to Moses, “I have seen this people, and they are indeed a stiff-necked people.
10 Ita ngarud, saannak a lapdan. Gumilgil-ayab ti pungtotko kadakuada isu a dadaelek ida. Ket mangaramidak iti dakkel a nasion manipud kenka.”
Now leave Me alone, so that My anger may burn against them and consume them. Then I will make you into a great nation.”
11 Ngem dinawat ni Moises kenni Yahweh a Diosna a saan nga agpungtot. Kinunana, “Yahweh, apay a bumara ti pungtotmo kadagiti tattaom nga inruarmo manipud iti daga ti Egipto nga addaan iti naindaklan a pannakabalin ken nabileg nga ima?
But Moses sought the favor of the LORD his God, saying, “O LORD, why does Your anger burn against Your people, whom You brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and a mighty hand?
12 Apay a nasken nga ibaga dagiti Egipcio, 'Indalanna ida a rimuar manipud iti Egipto nga addaan iti dakes a panggep, tapno papatayenna ida iti kabanbantayan ken tapno dadaelenna ida iti rabaw ti daga?' Ibaw-ingmo ti gumilgil-ayab a pungtotmo ket ibabawim ti panangdusam kadagiti tattaom.
Why should the Egyptians declare, ‘He brought them out with evil intent, to kill them in the mountains and wipe them from the face of the earth’? Turn from Your fierce anger and relent from doing harm to Your people.
13 Lagipem dagiti adipenmo nga Abraham, Isaac ken ni Israel, a mismo a nagikariam ken kinunam kadakuada, “Paadduekto dagiti kaputotanyo a kas kaadu dagiti bituen idiay langit, ken itedkonto kadagiti kaputotanyo amin daytoy a daga nga imbagak. Tawidendanto daytoy iti agnanayon.”
Remember Your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, to whom You swore by Your very self when You declared, ‘I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky, and I will give your descendants all this land that I have promised, and it shall be their inheritance forever.’”
14 Ket imbabawi ni Yahweh ti kinunana a pannusa nga ipalak-amna kadagiti tattaona.
So the LORD relented from the calamity He had threatened to bring on His people.
15 Kalpasanna, timmallikod ni Moises ket simmalog manipud iti bantay nga awit-awitna ti dua a tapi a bato nga ayan dagiti tulag. Agsinnumbangir a nasuratan dagiti tapi a bato, iti sangoanan ken iti likudan.
Then Moses turned and went down the mountain with the two tablets of the Testimony in his hands. They were inscribed on both sides, front and back.
16 Mismo a ti Dios ti nangaramid kadagiti tapi a bato, ken dagiti suratna ket mismo a ti Dios ti nangisurat iti naikitikit kadagiti tapi a bato.
The tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tablets.
17 Idi nangngeg ni Josue ti ariwawa dagiti tattao nga agpupukkaw, kinunana kenni Moises, “Adda ti ariwawa ti aggugubat iti kampo.”
When Joshua heard the sound of the people shouting, he said to Moses, “The sound of war is in the camp.”
18 Ngem kinuna ni Moises, “Saan nga ariwawa iti panagballigi, ken saan met nga ariwawa ti naabak a tattao ngem ti timek ti agkakanta ti mangngegko.”
But Moses replied: “It is neither the cry of victory nor the cry of defeat; I hear the sound of singing!”
19 Idi asidegen ni Moises iti kampo, nakitana ti sinan-baka ken dagiti agsasala a tattao. Nakapungtot isuna iti kasta unay. Imbarsakna dagiti tapi a bato ken binurakburakna dagitoy iti sakaanan ti bantay.
As Moses approached the camp and saw the calf and the dancing, he burned with anger and threw the tablets out of his hands, shattering them at the base of the mountain.
20 Innalana ti sinan-baka nga inaramid dagiti tattao, pinuoranna ken binurakburakna agingga a nagbalin daytoy a pulbos ket imbukbokna daytoy iti danum. Ket impainumna daytoy kadagiti tattao ti Israel.
Then he took the calf they had made, burned it in the fire, ground it to powder, and scattered the powder over the face of the water. Then he forced the Israelites to drink it.
21 Kalpasanna, kinuna ni Moises kenni Aaron, “Ania ti inaramid dagitoy a tattao kenka, a nangiyegka iti kasta kadakkel a basol kadakuada?”
“What did this people do to you,” Moses asked Aaron, “that you have led them into so great a sin?”
22 Kinuna ni Aaron, “Saanka koma nga agpungtot iti kasta unay, apok. Am-ammom dagitoy a tattao, no kasanoda a nairuam nga agaramid iti kinadakes.
“Do not be enraged, my lord,” Aaron replied. “You yourself know that the people are intent on evil.
23 Kinunada kaniak, ''Iyaramidannakami iti dios a mangidaulo kadakami. Maipanggep iti daytoy a Moises, ti tao a nangidaulo kadakami a rimmuar manipud iti daga ti Egipto, saanmi nga ammo ti napasamak kenkuana.'
They told me, ‘Make us gods who will go before us. As for this Moses who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him!’
24 Isu a kinunak kadakuada, 'Siasinoman nga addaan iti aniaman a balitok, ikkatenna koma daytoy. Intedda kaniak dagiti balitok ket impuruakko iti apuy ket nagbanag a sinan-baka.'”
So I said to them, ‘Whoever has gold, let him take it off,’ and they gave it to me. And when I threw it into the fire, out came this calf!”
25 Nakita ni Moises nga agkakaribuso dagiti tattao, ta binay-an ida ni Aaron nga aglablabes, tapno laisen ida dagiti kabusorda.
Moses saw that the people were out of control, for Aaron had let them run wild and become a laughingstock to their enemies.
26 Kalpasanna, nagtakder ni Moises iti pagserkan ti kampo ket kinunana, “Siasinoman nga agtulnog kenni Yahweh, umay kaniak.” Nagummong dagiti amin a Levita iti aglawlawna.
So Moses stood at the entrance to the camp and said, “Whoever is for the LORD, come to me.” And all the Levites gathered around him.
27 Kinunana kadakuada, “Ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, imbagana daytoy, 'Ikabil koma ti tunggal maysa dagiti kampilan iti sikiganda ket mapan ken agsubli iti tunggal pagserkan iti entero a kampo ket papatayenna ti kabsatna, ti kaduana ken ti kaarrubana.'”
He told them, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Each of you men is to fasten his sword to his side, go back and forth through the camp from gate to gate, and slay his brother, his friend, and his neighbor.’”
28 Inaramid dagiti Levita ti imbilin ni Moises. Agarup tallo ribu a lallaki manipud kadagiti tattao ti natay iti dayta nga aldaw.
The Levites did as Moses commanded, and that day about three thousand of the people fell dead.
29 Kinuna ni Moises kadagiti Levita, “Ita nga aldaw, naisaadkayon nga agserbi kenni Yahweh, ta tunggal maysa kadakayo ket binusorna ti kabsatna, isu nga inikkannakayo ni Yahweh iti bendision ita nga aldaw.”
Afterward, Moses said, “Today you have been ordained for service to the LORD, since each man went against his son and his brother; so the LORD has bestowed a blessing on you this day.”
30 Iti simmaruno nga aldaw kinuna ni Moises kadagiti tattao, “Nakaaramidkayo iti dakkel unay a basol. Ita sumang-atak kenni Yahweh. Nalabit a mabalin a mangaramidak iti pakapakawanan dagiti basolyo.”
The next day Moses said to the people, “You have committed a great sin. Now I will go up to the LORD; perhaps I can make atonement for your sin.”
31 Nagsubli ngarud ni Moises kenni Yahweh ket kinunana, “Nakaaramid dagitoy a tattao iti dakkel a basol ken nangaramidda iti didiosen a balitok.
So Moses returned to the LORD and said, “Oh, what a great sin these people have committed! They have made gods of gold for themselves.
32 Ngem ita, pangngaasim ta pakawanem dagiti basolda; ngem no saan, ikkatennak iti libro nga insuratmo.”
Yet now, if You would only forgive their sin.... But if not, please blot me out of the book that You have written.”
33 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Siasinoman a nakabasol kaniak, dayta a tao ti ikkatek iti librok.
The LORD replied to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blot out of My book.
34 Isu nga ita, mapanka ket idauloam dagiti tattao iti lugar nga imbagak kenka. Kitaem, umun-unanto kenka ti anghelko. Ngem iti aldaw a dusaek ida, dusaekto ida gapu iti basolda.”
Now go, lead the people to the place I described. Behold, My angel shall go before you. But on the day I settle accounts, I will punish them for their sin.”
35 Ket nangibaon ni Yahweh iti didigra kadagiti tattao gapu ta nangaramidda iti sinan-baka, ti inaramid ni Aaron.
And the LORD sent a plague on the people because of what they had done with the calf that Aaron had made.
