Kobima 24
1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Mata epai na Yawe, yo elongo na Aron, Nadabi, Abiyu mpe bakambi tuku sambo ya Isalaele; bokogumbama na mosika.
And unto Moses he said, Come up unto the Lord, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and ye shall bow yourselves down afar off.
2 Moyize kaka nde asengeli kopusana pene ya Yawe; kasi bato mosusu te. Lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele mpe ekomata te elongo na ye.
And Moses alone shall come near unto the Lord, but they shall not come nigh; and the people shall not go up with him.
3 Tango Moyize akendeki koyebisa bato makambo mpe mibeko nyonso ya Yawe, bato bazongisaki elongo: — Tokosala makambo nyonso oyo Yawe alobi.
And Moses came and told the people all the words of the Lord, and all the laws of justice; and all the people answered with one voice, and said, all the words which the Lord hath spoken will we do.
4 Moyize akomaki maloba nyonso oyo Yawe ayebisaki ye. Mokolo oyo elandaki, alamukaki na tongo makasi mpe atongaki etumbelo na ebandeli ya ngomba. Bongo, atelemisaki mabanga zomi na mibale oyo ezali kotalisa mabota zomi na mibale ya Isalaele.
And Moses wrote down all the words of the Lord, and he rose up early in the morning, and built an altar at the foot of the mount, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
5 Atindaki bilenge mibali ya Isalaele ete babonzela Yawe mbeka ya kotumba ya bangombe ya mibali lokola mbeka ya boyokani.
And he then sent the young men of the children of Israel, and they offered burnt-offerings, and sacrificed peace-offerings unto the Lord, of oxen.
6 Moyize azwaki ndambo ya makila, atiaki yango na sani; bongo ndambo mosusu, abwakaki-bwakaki yango na likolo ya etumbelo.
And Moses took the half of the blood, and put it in basins; and the [other] half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
7 Azwaki lisusu buku ya Boyokani mpe atangaki yango liboso ya bana ya Isalaele. Boye bango bazongisaki: — Tokosala makambo nyonso oyo Yawe alobi mpe tokotosa yango.
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 Moyize azwaki makila, abwakelaki-bwakelaki yango bato mpe alobaki: — Oyo ezali makila ya boyokani oyo Yawe asali elongo na bino kolanda maloba oyo nyonso.
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 concerning all these words.
9 Sima na yango, Moyize elongo na Aron, Nadabi, Abiyu mpe bakambi tuku sambo ya Isalaele, bamataki likolo ya ngomba
Then went up Moses, with Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel.
10 epai wapi bamonaki Nzambe ya Isalaele; se ya matambe na Ye ezalaki lokola mabanga ya talo ya safiri mpe ezalaki na langi ya ble ya kitoko lokola ble ya likolo.
And they saw the God of Israel; and the place under his feet was like a paved work of brilliant sapphire, and like the color of heaven in clearness.
11 Kasi Nzambe asembolaki loboko na Ye te mpo na kobeta bakambi ya Isalaele; bamonaki Nzambe, baliaki mpe bamelaki.
And against the nobles of the children of Israel he stretched not forth his hand; and they saw [the glory of] God, and did eat and drink.
12 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Yaka pene na Ngai na likolo ya ngomba mpe telema wana. Ngai nakopesa yo bitando ya mabanga ya papala oyo na likolo na yango nakomi Mobeko mpe mitindo mpo na kopesa bana ya Isalaele malako. »
And the Lord said unto Moses, come up to me to the mount, and remain there: and I will give thee the tables of stone, with the law, and the commandment which I have written, to teach them.
13 Boye Moyize atelemaki elongo na mosungi na ye Jozue mpe amataki na ngomba ya Nzambe.
And Moses rose up, and his servant Joshua; and Moses went up to the mount of God.
14 Moyize alobaki na bakambi: « Bozela biso awa kino tokozonga. Aron mpe Wuri bazali elongo na bino. Tika ete soki moto azali na likambo, ayebisa bango yango. »
And unto the elders he said, Tarry ye for us here, until the time we come again unto you; and, behold, Aaron and Chur are with you, whoever may have any cause to be decided, let him come unto them.
15 Tango Moyize amataki likolo ya ngomba, mapata ezipaki ye
And Moses went up to the mount, and the cloud covered the mount.
16 mpe nkembo ya Yawe ewumelaki na likolo ya ngomba Sinai. Mikolo motoba, mapata ezipaki ngomba. Bongo na mokolo ya sambo, Yawe abengaki Moyize kati na mapata.
And the glory of the Lord abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days; and he called unto Moses on the seventh day out of the midst of the cloud.
17 Na miso ya bana ya Isalaele, Nkembo ya Yawe emonanaki na likolo ya ngomba lokola moto oyo etumbaka.
And the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a devouring fire on the top of the mount, before the eyes of the children of Israel.
18 Tango Moyize amataki likolo ya ngomba, akotaki kati na mapata. Awumelaki kuna mikolo tuku minei mpe babutu tuku minei.
And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and ascended the mount; and Moses was on the mount forty days and forty nights.
