1 Lalu TUHAN berkata kepada Musa, "Tinggalkanlah tempat ini dan pergilah bersama bangsa yang kaubawa dari Mesir itu ke negeri yang Kujanjikan kepada Abraham, Ishak dan Yakub serta keturunan mereka.
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], “Depart, go up from here, you and the people that you have brought up out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], to the land of which I swore to Abraham [Father of a multitude], to Isaac [Laughter], and to Jacob [Supplanter], saying, ‘I will give it to your offspring.’
2 Aku akan mengutus seorang malaikat untuk membimbing kamu. Aku akan mengusir bangsa Kanaan, Amori, Het, Feris, Hewi dan Yebus.
I will send an angel before you; and I will divorce the Canaanite [Descendant of Humbled], the Amorite [Descendants of Talkers], and the Hittite [Descendant of Trembling fear], and the Perizzite [Descendant of Belonging to village], the Hivite [Wicked], and the Jebusite [Descendants of Thresher]:
3 Kamu menuju ke tanah yang kaya dan subur. Tetapi Aku sendiri tidak ikut dengan kamu, supaya kamu jangan Kubinasakan di tengah jalan, sebab kamu adalah bangsa yang keras kepala."
to a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up among you, for you are a stiff-necked people, lest I consume you on the way.”
4 Kemudian TUHAN menyuruh Musa mengatakan kepada bangsa Israel, "Kamu bangsa yang keras kepala. Sekiranya Aku ikut dengan kamu biar sebentar saja, pasti kamu Kubinasakan sama sekali. Lepaskanlah segala perhiasanmu, maka Aku akan menentukan apa yang akan Kulakukan terhadapmu." Setelah mendengar teguran TUHAN itu, mereka sedih sekali seperti orang yang berkabung. Lalu mereka melepaskan perhiasan mereka. Jadi, sesudah meninggalkan Gunung Sinai, bangsa Israel tidak lagi memakai perhiasan.
When the people sh'ma ·heard obeyed· this evil news, they mourned: and no one put on his jewelry.
5
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Tell the children of Israel [God prevails], ‘You are a stiff-necked people. If I were to go up into the middle of you for one moment, I would consume you. Therefore now take off your jewelry from you, that I may know what to do to you.’”
6
The children of Israel [God prevails] stripped themselves of their jewelry from Mount Horeb [Desert] onward.
7 Setiap kali, bila bangsa Israel berkemah, Musa mengambil Kemah dan mendirikannya agak jauh dari perkemahan mereka. Kemah itu disebut Kemah TUHAN, dan siapa yang ingin minta nasihat TUHAN, pergi ke situ.
Now Moses [Drawn out] used to take the tent and to pitch it outside the camp, far away from the camp, and he called it “The Tent of Meeting.” Everyone who sought Adonai went out to the Tent of Meeting, which was outside the camp.
8 Kalau Musa pergi ke Kemah itu, orang-orang Israel berdiri di depan pintu kemah mereka dan memperhatikan Musa sampai ia masuk.
When Moses [Drawn out] went out to the Tent, that all the people rose up, and stood, everyone at their tent door, and watched Moses [Drawn out], until he had gone into the Tent.
9 Sesudah Musa masuk, turunlah tiang awan dan berhenti di pintu Kemah. Dari awan itu TUHAN berbicara dengan Musa.
When Moses [Drawn out] entered into the Tent, the pillar of cloud descended, stood at the door of the Tent, and spoke with Moses [Drawn out].
10 Pada waktu orang Israel melihat tiang awan di pintu Kemah TUHAN, mereka semua bangkit dan sujud di pintu kemah masing-masing.
All the people saw the pillar of cloud stand at the door of the Tent, and all the people rose up and worshiped, everyone at their tent door.
11 TUHAN berbicara dengan Musa berhadapan muka, seperti orang berbicara dengan kawannya. Sesudah itu Musa kembali ke perkemahan. Tetapi Yosua anak Nun, seorang pemuda pembantu Musa, tetap tinggal di dalam Kemah itu.
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out] face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. He turned again into the camp, but his servant Joshua [Yah Salvation], the son of Nun, a young man, didn’t depart from the Tent.
12 Pada suatu hari Musa berkata kepada TUHAN, "TUHAN, Engkau memerintahkan saya membimbing bangsa ini ke negeri yang Kaujanjikan. Tetapi Engkau tidak mengatakan siapa yang akan Kauutus untuk menolong saya. TUHAN, Engkau berkata bahwa Engkau mengenal saya, dan berkenan pada saya.
Moses [Drawn out] said to Adonai, “Behold, you tell me, ‘Bring up this people:’ and you haven’t let me know whom you will send with me. Yet you have said, ‘I know you by name, and you have also found chen ·grace· in my sight.’
13 Kalau begitu, sudilah memberitahukan apa rencana-Mu, TUHAN, supaya saya dapat melayani Engkau dan tetap menyenangkan hati-Mu. Ingatlah juga bahwa bangsa ini sudah Kaupilih menjadi milik-Mu."
Now therefore, if I have found chen ·grace· in your sight, please show me now your way, that I may know you, so that I may find favor in your sight: and consider that this nation is your people.”
14 Kata TUHAN, "Kamu akan Kulindungi supaya dapat memiliki tanah yang Kujanjikan."
He said, “My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”
15 Jawab Musa, "Kalau TUHAN tidak ikut dengan kami, jangan suruh kami meninggalkan tempat ini.
He said to him, “If your presence does not go with me, don’t carry us up from here.
16 Bagaimana orang akan tahu bahwa Engkau berkenan kepada saya dan kepada bangsa ini jika Engkau tidak menolong kami? Kehadiran TUHAN di tengah-tengah kami akan membedakan kami dari bangsa-bangsa lain di bumi."
For how would people know that I have found chen ·grace· in your sight, I and your people? Is not it that you go with us, so that we are separated, I and your people, from all the people who are on the surface of the earth?”
17 Kata TUHAN kepada Musa, "Permintaanmu akan Kukabulkan, sebab Aku mengenal engkau dan Aku berkenan kepadamu."
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “I will do this thing also that you have spoken; for you have found chen ·grace· in my sight, and I know you by name.”
18 Lalu Musa memohon, "TUHAN, perlihatkanlah saya cahaya kehadiran-Mu."
He said, “Please show me your kavod ·weighty glory·.”
19 Jawab TUHAN, "Aku akan lewat dengan segala keagungan-Ku di depanmu, sambil mengucapkan nama-Ku yang suci. Akulah TUHAN, dan Aku menunjukkan kemurahan hati dan belas kasihan kepada orang-orang yang Kupilih.
He said, “I will make all my goodness pass before you, and will proclaim Adonai’s name before you. I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show racham ·merciful love· on whom I will show racham ·mercy·.”
20 Wajah-Ku tidak akan Kuperlihatkan kepadamu, sebab tak mungkin orang melihat Aku, dan tetap hidup.
He said, “You cannot see my face, for man may not see me and live.”
21 Di sebelah-Ku ini ada bukit batu; engkau dapat berdiri di situ.
Adonai also said, “Behold, there is a place by me, and you shall stand on the rock.
22 Pada waktu cahaya kehadiran-Ku lewat, engkau Kumasukkan ke dalam sebuah celah dalam bukit batu itu dan Kututupi dengan tangan-Ku sampai Aku sudah lewat.
It will happen, while my kavod ·weighty glory· passes by, that I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and will cover you with my hand until I have passed by;
23 Lalu akan Kutarik tangan-Ku supaya engkau dapat melihat Aku dari belakang, tetapi wajah-Ku tidak akan kaulihat."
then I will take away my hand, and you will see my back; but my face shall not be seen.”
